BUCKET SHOP
|. LAW KILLED
(By United Press Leased wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire. }
WASHINGTON, D. c., Mar. 80.
The anti-bucketshop law was
declared unconstitutional today in
a decision handed down by Justice
Wright of the supreme court of
the District of Columbia. The de-
cision says the law is ambiguous.
Indictments against thirteen
bucketshop proprietors were dis
missed. The defendants were ar
rested following a raid made sim
ultaneously in Washington, Bal
timore and Chicago last May at
the instance of the department of
justice. The case will be carried
to the higher courts by the gov
ernment. If the ruling of Justice
Wright is sustained the crusade of
the government against bucket
shop gambling will be frustrated.

COTTON MAKESA
 NEW HIGH RECORD
Later Becomes Nervous and Closes at a Decline of
 4 to 3 Points

New York April 11.-After making new high records for the movement early today the cotton market became close steady at a net decline of 4 to 9 points on all positions except August, which was 4 points net higner.
 The opening was steady at decline of points and an advance of points, summer and early fall months being relatively firm on a continuation Of the covering movement, while other posi- tions responded to lower cables than expected There was freavv buying at the start end the first few minutes and all active positions sold higher with May touching 14.72c and July 1465c, or about points over the clos ing figures of last night but at this level there was heavy realizing and the market soon weakened. One of the leading bull brokers was credited with selling at least 10000 bales of May be- fore the end of the first hour and with offerings from this source continuing May eased off to 14.57c. or 10 points under the closing figures of last night. July showed a similar loss and the new
 rop months also sold 10 to 12 points lower but August remained relatively firm and the general list rallied from the lowest in the late trading on cover ing and buying of July by one of the early heavy sellers of May
 The character of the trading ap- peared to confuse local sentiment and after the close tonight 1t was esti- mated that one of the old bull leaders had liquidated at least 150,000 bales, chiefly in the way of May contracts, during the past three or four days. Shorts have been active buyers and at the narrowing May-July difference to- day leading spot interests were good buyers of the spring months.
 Receipts at the ports today, 12,940 bales against S599 last week and 17,979 last year. Today's receipts at New Or leans, 4S02 bales against GAPS last year and at Houston 1900 bales against 27SO last year.

GLOOMY DAY ON
 MORRIS AVENUE Grain Trade Picking Up, Vegetables Plentiful and
 Fowls Are Scarce

The unfavorable weather yesterday had quite a depressing effect on the Morris avenue trade. Business was comparative ly as good as at any time during the past week or so, but had the weather been clear merchants would have experienced a great deal of activity.
 Merchants handling feedstuffs declare that business is gradually picking up in their line, and that receipts have been heavier in the last day or two than for some time. Nellie King flour is selling at $5 per barrel this week. No. corn is quoted at roc per bushel. Several other lnclines were reported.
 The wholesalers are failing in their at tempts to keep the local trade supplied with fowl. Chickens are coming in very slow, and as a result of the low stocks merchants are asking 16c per pound.
 Vegetables are plentiful, while fruits are running a little low on account of slow arrivals.
 The following are present quotations:

New Orleans Cotton Market

New orleans. April 1f.-Cotton fu- lures opened very steady. unchanged to one point down on the old crop months and to points up on the new. Cables were not favorable but the market was sustained on the call by buying orders from outsiders, based on complaints of too much rain in various sections of the cotton belt. Around the call the old crops were put 2 to points over yesterdays close, while october was put over. Profit taking set in on large scale on this advance and the offerings from this source were too heavy for the ring to absorb. At the end of the first half hour of business the list stood to 8 roints under yesterdays close.
 Realizing of profits by satisfied longs was the main feature of the morning session. The selling was heaviest around the middle of the morning. Bulls offered no support but seemed willing to allow the liquidation to run its own course. Although the advantage was with the bears they made no attempt to press 1t. Both sides appeared to make preparations for going over the Good Friday holidays. Prices were low est at noon when the old crop months were 15 to IS points under yesterday's g close and the new crops were to 3 under
 In the afternoon session the mar ket was quiet. At 2 o'clock the list was to II points under yesterdays last quotations.
 The market closed steady at a net decline of to 10 points.

SELLING BEGINS ON STOCK MARKET More Activity in Stocks Than in Several Weeks
 Past


 New York, April 11-Persistent selling of stocks today brought out the widest movements which have taken place Tn several weeks on the exchange. During most of the session prices ruled point or more under recent levels. The move Snent seemed to indicate short selling gather than liquidation of long stocks and probably was inspired by the belief ohat since prices have not improved on the receipt of good news recently it would be easier for professional traders to de- press the market than force 1t dp. No solid support was offered and quotations gave way rather easily on moderate oner- ings with only partial recovery before the close
 While professional manipulation was chiefly responsible for todays movement the ready response of the market to srfght pressure and the fact that trading was most active on the declines were indlca- tions of growth of bearish sentiment The statement yesterday of one of the coun- trys foremost bankers that he expected protracted period of dullness found echo today in many quarters where hope Of a speedy revival of activity has been re- signed. Much disappointment had been expressed that the advent of spring had not brought the expected improvement In trade.
 Some encouragement was derived from the first returns received today of the country's exports for March. Statistics covering exports of grain meats, cotton and mineral oils revealed an increase Of more than S3,0o0,O00 over March of last year. The gain for the months of the fiscal year ended with March over the pre- ceolng period, is $127. 137, ,000. These figures indicate a further expansion in the total of American credits abroad in view Of the fact that imports are expected 10 show the restricting effects of projected revision of the tariff law The export business of the United States Steel cor poration and the export trade of the cor poration this year is expected to exceed that of last year, which was the largest in it's history. Advices received from London today stated that the competition of American steel products was being felt keeny in England, and had resultec m curtailment of production by some mills here.
 Dullness in both the stock market and business circles was reflected In the money market. One of the largest banks was reported to have made large loan for Il months at per cent.
 The foreign exchange held steady.
 The weakest features of the days trad ing on the stock exchange were a num- Der of inactive issues. Stocks of the yer tilizer group were influenced unravoraply by reports of lower prices for cotton seed products. United Railways and h. vestment and National Biscuit also were expressly weak. In the last hour better tone developed with support in evidence in number of the railroad issues. MS souri Pacific after it's fall of point ral- lied and closed with a net gain on short covering.
 The bond market was irregular. Total sales, par value, s305S,0 ,000
 United States bonds unchanged on call.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, April 1f.-(Speeial.)- )-Heavy realizing by holders of both May and July was the feature of the day. The heaviest selling appeared to be in May. which seemed at all times to be freely offered, as it was yesterday. This led to the belief that some large interest was parting with their holdings One of the large cotton houses was the largest buyer during the opening hour, apparently on arbitrage transactions with Liverpool. Altogether the liquidation proved too much for the market, which finally closed from to s points lower and lack of the confident tone of yesterday. We see no change in the factors. Receipts continue very light, while our American spnners do not buy, but the European spinners appear to be able to sell goods freely where ours do not.
 Liverpool is expected 3 points lower to- morrow.
