COTTON MARKETS.

New York. April 1.-The cotton market
after very nervous and unsettled morning
turned weak and closed al a net loss of
16d % points The opening was steady at a
decline of 6Gl2 points in response to lower
cables than expected reports OF further
rains In Texas and continuation of yes
1erday's late selling movement There was
good demand at the star. with strong
interests absorbing new crop offerings
around the initial figures. and during the
middle OF The day prices rallied 10 within a
point or two of last nights finals cover
ing by .tecent sellers and fresh buying. But
the pgar 1nonth bulls seemed to be giving
May contracts no support on this rally.
and in the afternoon the market became
very weak under Southern selling, local IL
uuidatfon. and renewal of hear pressure.
Stop-loss orders were uncovered on scale
down. and active mouths sold off to net
loss OF about lSGf24 points, which represents
ed decline OF between 81 and 80 points
from the high level OF Wednesday morning,
There was some good buying this break,
out the close was barely steady. rossi-
bly, rather bearish Weekend figures in
duced some of the selling, but It looked
as though the chief factors We're the re-
ports OF temporary relief from Texas
drought complaints and a revival OF the
gossip that leading bulls had abandoned
1he May deal.
Receipts at the ports to-day were l020l
bales against l5,Si9 last week and $3.50 last
year. For the week 5000 bales against
1t5isa last week and sass last year. TO-
days receipts at New Orleans 1870 bales

HEAVY SHORTAGE
IN HIS ACCOUNTS
Late Head of Atlas Bank Be-
trays His Trust

New Bedford, Mass, Oct. IA
shortage of between $3.50, 900 and
$3.50, 900 was announced in the books
Of the late George w. Weymouth,
president and general manager Of the
Atlas Tack company, controlled by
the estate OF the late Henry H. Rog-
ers.
Weymouth, who resigned from
congress. where he represented the
Fourth Massachusetts, district from
1897 to 1901, to accept the position,
was killed in an automobile accident
in Bingham, Me-, a month ago.
Announcement of the shortage came
as great surprise. Weymouth had
not lived extravagantly, and it is un-
derstood that on his death he left
small estate, consisting chiefly of an
accident policy.
1t is thought that the shortage in
Weymouth's- accounts was due to at
tempts to make up losses in the stock
market
