TONE HEAVY AND SLUGGISH
Price of Copper Marked Down in Lon don and Has Bearish Effect Upon AmaIganated Copper and Other
 Stocks Fall in Line.

New York, April 13.-The stock market today gave further evidence of its re- striction within professional limits and fell into a dull ruling, while little signifi- canoe attaches to the sluggish fiuctua- tions in prices. The tone was heavy, as is almost inevitably the case in & pro- foundy dull market Some of the heavi- ness was of foreign inspiration and Lon don sold on balance in this market. Paris continued to withdraw gold from London and discounts continued to harden at the latter center while a further rise in for eign exchange rates here brought condi- tions near to the level where London could shift the Paris demand for gold upon New York.
 The London remittances to Paris repre- sent the completion of the repayment of advances made during the New York financial crisis and its refecting results in foreign markets. There seems to be a speculative trouble in Paris, due to disturbances in the diamond and copper trades which induced liquidation by Paris in the London stock market. An unofficial announcement was made in New York that the selling agency of the principal copper producers had marked down the selling price of copper, thus conforming to last weeks successive re- auctions in the London market and at the New York metal exchange. For this reason Amalgamated Copper was a leader in the early downward movement of prices.
 The amount of the subscriptions at Ber lin to the new German and Prussian loans, although fully covering the issues, seemed to be considered disappointing, thus adding one, more to the unfavorable influences from abroad. The improvement in investment issues in foreign markets was in consequence checked. Domestic events offered little to offset the for eign influences. Railroad traffic officials reported that there was no change in conditions and there was a disposition to postpone the date of expected re- vival The same was true of advices on the commercial situation and complaints were heard from some centers of a re- lapse into somewhat critical conditions in trade.
 The approach of the Easter holidays was a oppressive factor of all speculative markets and this was emphasized by the decision to close the stock exchange from Thursday of this week until Monday of next Crop prospects begin to loom up as a more effective influence on the mar ket and reports of continued lack of mois- ture in parts of the winter wheat belt received some attention The appearance of the Illinois Central circular propos- ing the offering of 15 per cent of holdings in new stock to stockholders, at par pre- sents the subject of new capital issues which must be provided for in large vol ume in the not distant future.
 The depressing effect of Saturdays Delaware and Hudson bond announce nlent on the block did not imply mood of satisfaction with the prospect. The money market showed the further effect of the growing accumulation of idle

Dry Goods.

New York. April 13.-The dry goods market was rather more quiet for the opening day of the week. The dress goods trade IS active only in certain spots and fall goods are not selling well. save in some well styled fancies or some high class fabrics. Raw silk is rel orted firmer in the Yokohama markets. Cotton goods were affected by the further decline in cotton the sentiment of buyers being that there was added cause for putting off new purchases Cotton yarns showed change, but offerings at low prices continue. The jobbing trade was confined to small iiil- ing in orders for quick shipments and road men say selling for fall is very diff cult.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, April 13.-Cotton-Spots were quiet and easy; i-16c down on all grades; middling, 10 3-16c. Sales were $50 bales on the spot and 150 to arrive. Flu lures opened steady at decline of ' to s points below the close of Saturday.
 Liverpool cables were decidedly unfavor- able. Advices from that market attrbu- ted the weakness to American selling or ders. The early weakndss of the local market was largely due to exceptionally good crop accounts, especially from Texas and Louisiana, where beneficial rains were reported to have fallen. Advices from Texas were to the effect that about three-fourths of the new crop had been planted and that the greater part of this represented good stand. Added to these bearish factors were selling orders, which soon brought about rapid and general recession in values. At the close, which was steady, the active months were IS to 22 points below the close Saturday.

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'S Letter.

New York, April -(specialD-The market was very weak duIing the day but showed in the afternoon some evil dence of being oversold. Cables from Liverpool were of the gloemiest descrip- tiou. mentioning dullness, want of conf- dence. no business staghant market and 10 encouraging outlook They could not have been worse in tone A decline be- came inevitable and prices gradually re- ceded till early in the afternoon when heavy liquidation presumably of recent speculative purchases in part completely demoralzed the market. The decline has been so great that normally a reaction would follow. but the lack of general
 business makes buyers few and only of those who follow the decline carefully in the fear that some crop scare may find few sellers. The latter are confident now in view of the excellent crop pros poets so far and the large acreage.

Football and the Center Sex.


It is pertinent and not uncompli-
mentary to speculate upon the in
ducements that attract SO many wom-
en- to football games, A few Of the
gentler sex understand all the fine
points off the game a large number
appreciate the ipstants play that In
vites quick and. hearty applause,
while the remainder depend, either
very frankly or quite surreptitiously,
upon their escorts or upon the black
boards figures for information as to
how the game is going. Why, then,
all these degrees of knowledge Of the
game being considered, do so many
women find an evident and sincere
enjoyment in attending a match?
Probably there are several reasons
that blended together afford an adj
mirable explanation of their presence.
Everybody gone; it is great fun to
watch the. crowd and the moments of
spontaneous cheering furnish an ex-

a sport in itself Besides, there is
the pleasure OF being out Of doors.

that he is ready to look at the gain
that can be had by growing grass and
making it into hay. 49, Progressive
