REACHES LOW MARK
COTTON IMPORTATION FROM MONT.
 GOMERY SMALLEST IN YEARS.
Practically the OnIs shipment Made From Thls City Was c Consignment By Boat % Mo-

Cotton sxportation ftom Montgomery reached She lowest mark for years during the frat two weeks of February, in the opinion of the local traffic officials. In all, with the exception of some 500 bales which were sent to Mobile on the Nettle Quill by a prominent broker in this city, there have been oni "a few scattering lots shipped out.
 Most of this is going to the miiis in North Carolina and some to the Fall River milia. Of the foreign exportation Japan is @etting far more than Europe in proportion der yearly demand. The overland rates now being prohibitive. the shippers are sending their cotton to Savannah then to New York where 1t is loaded into regular Japaneas liners or to Pensacola over the lndirace route to Liverpool and via the Sues Canal.
 Although the coraineFctal agents are dis appointed to receive 90 little cotton at a season when there Is so large a supply waiting in the warehouses. they announce that the shipments Of lumber are larger than for any previous first two weeks of February The fertilizer shipments are also bigger and are covering more territory than ever before. Every indication is that this spring will be one of uuuaual activity, particularly as the coal and pig iron movement from the Birmingham dts- RFict 10 enormous.

Fears had been expressed that the Erie fln.2cial plan was tc meet m an ciai body. The increase in the divi- dend rate on Peoples Gas proved an- other influential factor in the specu- Anosr Hs g ss group. tue causes being not clearly visible. Discussion of possible divt- dend increases was heard In the cases of so%e m of the stoeks affestsd sSsa, Ths Ths South and the character of some published remarks attributed to him intfmating his plans for large outlays for improvements in that railroad field and his faith in the region wore used with effect ID furtherfng the advance. Another reduction in quotations for copper AtoGay in London and in New York weighed on the group. Increased reports of cutting of prices of steel poducts and of stagnant demand be- came factor in the later stock mar ket Prices were marked up again in the final edealings, in expectation of another upward impetus for prices from London tomorrow.
