Loveman & Co.'S Market Letter.

The unexpected weakness shown by
Liverpool today, together with vigorous
pounding of the July position In New
York, caused another sharp break in cot
ton values today. Liquidation of the
near months continued in this market,
July contracts selling as low as 1913
before even a slight rally in prices could
be brought about. Renewed selling 1ol-
lowed and nearly all the recovery was
wiped out during the late afternoon SEES
sion Spots were officially reported easy
and Va lower on all grades. Factors not
being inclined to sell at the decline, sales
were light, amounting to only 600 bales.

cents. Three bales were delivered on
contract
All efforts to have the report postponed
until next Tuesday have failed and 1t
will come out as originally announced on
June a at o'clock, washington time.
Had the report been postponed, thou
sands of dollars would have been saved
to the south, as the heavy liquidations
that has recently taken place in this mar
ket was due. in a great measure, to the
fact that few southern operators thought
It prudent to remain long over pn-
reau report with our market closed.
The liquidation has, far as We are able
to Judge, been of drastic nature, leav-
ing the market in the best technical posi-
ton that 1t has occupied in several
months. Shorts in October and Decem-
Der have covered freely on the break so
that the chief short interest now seems
TO lie in July, position which has only
a few staunch friends at the present mo-
ment

day were estimated 450,OO0 bales. The mar

The opening was weak, at a decline of
6a16 points, with July the feature, and
extremely active as result of heavy
liquidation. stop loss orders, bear pressure
and offerings by the recent bulls. The first
rush of selling carried that month down
to 1906 or about % points net lower, while
the new crop sold off to a net decline of
10 points net. This was followed by a
rally of several points on covering, but
the offering increased on the bulge, and
the list reached a new low level in the af-
ternoon, and at one time was 1923 points
net lower with July showing the maxi
mum loss Toward the close fluctuations
were quite irregular, and there was ac-
tive covering. but no sign of bull support,
and the close was only 3 or points up
from the lowest, although the final tone
was steady.
The English market was fairly steady
over the local holiday, but slightly under
expectations this morning, and the wealth

Private crop reports issued during the
day were more bearish than those cir

SPECIAL STOCKS
HOLD ATTENTION
Illinois Central Conspicuous in
the Advance
COMBINATION IN SOUTH
Contest for Control In Illinois Central
Seemed to Be Factor In the
Movements Of That
Stock.
COMBINATION IN SOUTH

New York, May 31.-The interest in to-
days stock market was confined to the
movement of special stocks. The market
as a whole was unchanged from the dull
and listless trading of last week. Some
of the movements in special stocks had
new causes in the circulation of rumors
regarding plans for the company. Others
were without explanation beyond the
character of the buying. The identity
of some of the large operators in the
stocks newly active was the same as the
active factors in some of the leading
movements last week. This led to the as
sumption that the dealings were designed
for sustaining effect of the market dur
ing It's period of dullness. Such was the
effect of today's special movements while
they were occurring.
The effect was very moderate even then
and lost some of its force afterwards,
when dropping tone developed. Illinois
Central was quite a conspicuous figure
in the advance and led to a general move
ment in the southern group. The action
of the cotton market on crop news was
a help to this group. More effect was
produced by an impression set afoat that
friction exists among street capitalists
influential in Illinois Central and that
a contest for control Is a possibility.
Also the report of the roads net earnings
for April showed an expansion of nearly
81 per cent over those for the preceding
April In the realm of rumor also was
the suggestion that an extensive COM
bination of southern railroad interests is
in contemplation. The strength of St.
Paul was connected with suppositon re-
garding the plans for financing it's Pacific
coast extension. 1t was asserted that
buying of the stock was based upon
knowledge that arrangements had been
completed for securing adequate resources
for completing that work. The jump in
Consolidated Gas was caused by a court
decision which defeated a purpose to pre-
vent the company from collecting more
than an so per cent rate pending the con-
clusion of its suit to test the constitu-
tionality of the law.
Money market developments are of some

Importance, but seemed to have slight
effect on the stock speculation. San Fran
cisco again sent heavy remittances 10
New York, the days total reaching SS,4OO,-
600. At the same time some 100000 was
sent from New York to Canada, repre-
senting the funds attracted here during
the stringency due to the drain to San
Francisco. Conditions in the foreign ex-
change market were greatly confused by
the contradictory information regarding
the United States treasury attitude in the
policy of aiding of gold imports by gov
eminent deposits. Finally the deposit OF
bonds for the withdrawal of $1.5O0,0Oo by
the National City bank was allowed on
the ground that the arrangement for the
gold to be imported antedared the de-
cision to discontinue the practice for the
present This decision is explained as be-
ing due to the present sufficient supplies
for the money market doing away with
the emergency condition, which prompted
the adoption of the practice in the first
place.
Money was freely offered ON call es-
pecially by the bankers concerned in the
Pennsylvania note issue, and the tone
was easy in spite of the preparations for
the June payments and for the Chicago
and Northwestern stocks payments to-
morrow Pennsylvania was heavy
throughout and weakened sharply at one
time with the circulation of a rumor that
the placing of bonds in Paris had fallen
through The denial of this rumor failed
to rally the stock and ST. Paul reacted
when the directors adjourned without any
announcement of a project for financing
it's extension. The effect of these two IN
cidents was to impair the advances and
to make the closing tone easy.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
