ABSENCE OF BIDS
Several influences Tend to Pro-
duCe Depressing Effect
on Stock Market
COPPER OUTLOOK WORRIES
Politics and Crops Result in In
creasing the Offering of
Stocks for Sale
COPPER OUTLOOK WORRIES

NEW YORK, April S.-There was a
considerable increase in the offerings
of stocks for sale today. There was
however, a distinct increase in the diff
flculty with which they were market
ed. The absence of bids at current
quotations made itself obvious at the
outset and prices declined. The bids
at successive stages Of the decline
were readily filled, necessitating FUR
ther concessions by the sellers In or
der to place their stocks.
Declines of one to three points were
general at the end of the day.
The rising money rate was a broadly
effective influence. Coupled with the
belief that gold exports would further
deplete the bank reserve next week the
money situation offered little incentive
to buy stocks Preliminary estimates
of the currency movement Of the week
indicate excess of receipts from the in
terror to the extent of several millions
of dollars. The subtreasury operations
have nearly balanced The $780, 900 OF
cold exports which figure in the bank
ing week will be partly offset, there
fore.
The crop report published at noon
brought no relief to the stock market
depression. Such comfort as could be
found was in the belief that conditions
have improved since the date of the
report. The decline of 10 points in the
condition from December l to April
l. however, shows the glaring contrast
of early expectations of the crop with
the after effects with the winter kill
ing.
The March statistics Of the Copper
Producers association was another de-
pressing factor. The increase of To-
6S6. $50 pounds in the stocks of copper
for the month comes in spite OF a re-
duction In the daily rate Of produc-
tion in March. the deliveries into con-
sumption having fallen to the lowest
figure for any month since February
1909 with the single exception OF Sep
tenber of last year
Political discussion figured IN the
DAYS stock market There was re-
newed consideration OF a possible su-
preme court decision in the American
Tobacco case on Monday. The action
of the Erie railroad in reducing It's
shop forces and laying off engines was
cited as evidence of lagging traffic con-
ditions for the railroads

CHICAGO, April s.-The wheat market was
a choppy and nervous affair since the publi-
cation OF the government report and II was a
slow and narrow market, with an easier
tendency earlier. In the main the govern
ment estimate was less than expected, but II
nevertheless was variously construed. The
condition of sos compared with S2.2 a year
ago, and - the average for April i Tor the
last ten years. The acregae as seeded last
fall and not since revised was 80, $4,000, as
compared with %. $4,000 acres year ago.
Present indicated yield Of winter wheat is now
about 473 900, 600 bushels, against 425,OOOO00 In
dicated a year ago. Actual harvested crop
was 446. 900 bushels. from 2S,33o,00 acres,
winter wheat, last year. The weeks stats
tics are depressing
The corn market was a very nervous affair
and the volume Of trading was liberal To
tai trade, however, not up to yesterday
enormous volume. While the prevalent senti-
ment was a little better the Improvement was
slow, caused by the large stocks in all direc-
tions. and the offerings that are pressing on
the market both west and east. This market
has had corn offered today from Minneapolis,
Omaha and Kansas City, also Milwaukee and
the eastern bids are almost a minus quantity.
It was reported No. corn sold in Philadelphia
equal to 80 cents Chicago distress corn.
Oats followed corn. The market was fairly
active, but highty within reasonable price lin
its Cash demand, however showed consider
able improvement, and there is quite con-
tngent turning to the bull side on the theory
that the worst is over.
Provisions were lower following early
strength The market was rather nervous,
trade being affected somewhat by nervous in

EDITOR LOG CABIN DEMOCRAT:
AS l have just returned from
prospective tour through Old Mexico,
thought that | would give my many
friends of the Log Cabin Democrat
readers the benefit of my finding.
After traversing many portions of the
republic in person and Investigated
for myself, l am fully convinced that
it is great country, with unlimited
possibilities, both as farming and a
tropical country. | found the Tucson
Valley, near the center of which is
the city of Tucson, by far the best To-
cation for a farmer. Here the soil
tropics to be out of the reach of
drouths and frosts and not far enough
south to reach the floods where they
have 10 to II feet of rain annually.
This valley is in the state of Veracruz
and on the Gulf of Mexico, where the
sea breeze or trade winds come up
from the, gulf every morning like
clock-work, keeping the country com
paratively cool and healthy. You
meet Americans prospectors every
where on the gulf coast. Some of
them are buying land and locating
on it. Mr.. S. w. Pease, real estate
dealer in Tucson, found to be very
pleasant gentleman with a splendid
reputation for business integrity. He
has on record over 900 names of cor
respondents from the United States,
who are now seeking homes in the
valley. One thing that interested me
very much was the Baptist mission in

1880 BALES
SHIPPED HERE
ALMOST Same AS 1908
SHORT CROP MAKES BIG DE-
CREASE IN SHIPMENTS
FROM LAST YEAR.

Fifteen thousand, one hundred and
thirty bales of cotton were shipped
from Conway during the season end
ing yesterday, decrease of over one
third from the previous seasons ship
ments which were the high
est on record. The number
was slightly more than that
of the season ending two years
ago, when the shipments amounted to
1904. The severe drouth of last
summer is responsible for the short
age, many cotton men predicting at
the beginning of the season that not
more than 10000 bales would be mar
keted here. 1t is probable, however,
that the increased price last year
made the crop worth nearly as much
as that of the previous year.
OF the cotton shipped here 1889
bales were bought by the six princi-
pal cotton-buying firms, 900 were
handled through the union warehouse
and the remainder shipped independ-
emily by planters and other mer-

The log cabin Democrat., 1910-09-01

stranger in foreign country, almost
without dollar, where there was not
Baptist or anyone else in sympathy
with his work. He tells me he started
his mission on faith with vow that
he would never accept money from
the United States. Several times
money has been sent and he always
returned it, Neither has he ever ask
ed for one cent or took collection.
Still, the mission seems to move on
successfully. We learn that without
his knowledge beforehand or his sug-
gestion, his congregation made the
mission a present of $120, organ and
plenty of good seats. Bro. X. tells me
that on several occasions he has been
without dollar or as much as q cop
per cent and nothing in his house to
eat, and on each occasion money has
come from unexpected sources, so he
has never missed q meal or had to 90
in debt; neither did he tell any one
except the Lord that he was out of
money. Just before the writer reach
ed Tucson Bro. X had rented and
was fitting up another mission room
in the eastern part of the city. On
Sunday, August Is, the writer had
the pleasure of attending services and
hearing Bro. K. preach. The morn
ing services were in English and the
evening services were in Spanish. His
congregation are good for new coun-
try, and | consider his prospects fine.
Bro. X. is landmarker of the j. r.
Graves and j. N. Hall persuasion. He
is wrapped up in his work and
thinks he is right in the midle of the
world. He has an English school in
connection with his mission, but had
just closed for the summer before
reached the city, and would advise
everyone who is seeking a change in
location, either for health or any 9TH
er purpose, to investigate the Tucson
Valley, Old Mexico, and by reference
