argument relative to the report of the
railroad committee on the matter of

senger was delayed twenty-four min
utes a few weeks ago. At a hearing
in the Council chamber last week be-
fore the committee, Edward Kirwin,
superintendent of the Central Railroad,

a broken coupling pin caused the
trouble on that occasion, the crew hav-
ing to dispatch a messenger all the
way to the yards for a new pin.
An amendment was offered to this
report by Chairman Stein asking that
action be instituted against the Cen
trail. through the City Attorney, be-
cause of the alleged violation of a city
ordinance which provides that traffic
shall not be blocked for more than five
minutes. This amendment was car
ried.

UPTOWN SENTIMENT.

NEW YORK. Feb. ia prominent
international banker says tina while
he would not guarantee that prices
would not sell off somewhat from the
high figures reached on the last rally.
he is confident that European and
American investors will continue to buy
our best dividend stocks as long as they
continue to sell On a 5 per cent. basis.
This is the opinion which is shared BY
many careful observers of the technical
position of the market, and who are in
the best position to form a correct opin-
ion regarding developments expected in
the near future and of the situation
as a whole.
Some of the leading bond houses are
confident that if money continues much
longer at about present rates the de-
mand for bonds will increase materially.

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-The cotton
market opened steady at a decline OF
2 to 4 points and during the early
morning sold off to a net loss of about
8 TO 8 points under bear pressure and
liquidation attributed to Indifferent
cables and reports that Lancashire
spinners had decided to continue the
present curtailment until April 26.
Trading was very quiet at the start,
but sellers appeared more aggressive
during the middle of the morning, when
some stop-loss roders were uncovered.
