opened steady at an advance of points on the old crop months and 1 down to up on the new. Cables were unfavorabie and held the market down on the first call in spite of extremely unfavorable weather conditions in the cotton belt. The weather may showed heavy rains in nearly all the important sections or the belt over Sunday, aggravating the condl- tions that were mainly responsible Tor the advance last week. After the call the market strengthened and at the end or the first half hour of business the llst was to [ points over Saturdays close. October showed the strongest, standing points up.
 The weather forecast was for much colder weather in the western half of the cotton belt and in Mississippi, while more rain was promised in Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas. This stimulated buy ing again and July was sent to 15.53c, a new high level for the season. At the highest of the morning the old crop months were to points over Saturdays close, and the new crops were l0c to He over. Toward the end of the morning longs took profits freely and at noon the list was 1 point down to points up, com pared with Saturdays close. Noon easy point down to up.
 In the afternoon session profit taking by longs continued and prices were held down by 1t. At ? o'clock the list was ? to 5 points under Saturdays close.
 Cotton futures closed steady, unchanged to 6 points down, compared with Satur- days close.

COTTON MAKES HH H
 SHARP ADVANCES
Caused By Predictions of a Frost in the Vest
 ern Belt

New York, May 1.-Predictions for frost in the western belt caused rather a sharp advance in today's cotton market dur ing the earlier trading. but there was con- siderable realizing and fluctuations be- came irregular later with the close net 5 points higher to points lower.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of points to decline of points, old crop positions being relatively steady in the absence of important offerings while the new crop was lower under over Sunday realizing. Liverpool how ever, was relatively easy on the near months, with private cables reporting a less active trade demand and the rela- tive ruling of the old and new crop here soon reversed with the new crop leading the advance during the morning on pros- poets for continued unsettled weather in the eastern belt and for lower temper atures in the west. The western belt forecast called for frost tonight thus confirming private predictions based on the showing of the early weather map, but failed to stimulate any for the amount of fresh buying for long account and after showing a net gain of about 12q IS points, new crop positions turned easier under realizing by early buyers.
 The old crop found bull support around 15. 32c for July or about 4 points under the closing figures of Saturday night however, and the market in the late trading was irregular, closing several points up from the lowest with the old crop relatively firm, and in most in- stances showing net gains for the day.
 Receipts today 1l,2s2 bales, against 935s last week and 7790 last year. For the week 45,000, against 45,001 last week and 54,673 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans 1854 bales, against 1903 last year

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, May 1.-(Special) )-Man- chester did not buy as freely today as last week. probably because they have bought enough for the time being. This absence of demand for immediate de- livery kept the near positions quiet. when the distant advanced freely on predc- tions of frost in Arkansas and Okla homa. By noon, however, this demand had been supplied by southern selling and these positions close a shade lower, while May and July closed at an advance. The trade tonight looks for a decline in Liverpool tomorrow because the advance here was not maintained on the new crops, but they do not understand the firmness of July and May unless 1t Is that the cotton will be shipped to the continent from our stock. Receipts are larger as cotton reached 15 cents in the south.

STOCK MARKET
 CONTINUES STRONG Only a Brief Pause Await
 ing Supreme Court Decisions

New York, May 1.-For a few hours today the advance in stocks which pro- gressed briskly in the closing days of last week was halted while the market awaited word from Washington as to whether decisions were to be announced by the supreme court in the antitrust cases. There was some irregularity in prices, but the market held more firmly than on many of the other supreme courts decision days" When it became known that the~decisions were not to be handed down today the buying move ment was resumed and prices moved up- ward Trading grew more active toward the end of the day, and at the close a number of substantial advances were distributed through the list of active is- sues. Stocks were in scant supply, even at the higher levels, a fact which en- couraged bull operators to extend their activity
 Adverse March reports of the two largest eastern railroad systems had no effect upon the market. The PennsylVa- mia, by reducing it's operating expenses more than $950, ,0O0, fulfilled expectations as to the result of It's retrenchment pol lev. but the amount thus saved offset less than half of the decrease of s1,679- GOO in gross receipts. The New York Central line proper reported gain in net of $S07, ,000, but losses of subsidiary com panies were in some cases heavy, the report for all companies showing de- crease of s5S2, ,OOO in net
 Metal stocks were well supported and their advices reflected the more cheer ful sentiment in regard to the outlook for both the copper and steel markets. The outlook for the steel trade is made somewhat brighter by the disposition of the railroads to re-enter the market Pre- liminary estimates of the April earnings of the United States Steel corporation suggest an amount not far from the to- tal of about s1o,50O,OOO reported for March. Canadian Pacific continued its record breaking movement, rising Az points. Un- usual activity and strength of Reading second preferred, which gained 5 points, was attended by a revival of the report that the issue would be retired. Den yer and Rio Grande issues moved against the market, the preferred being espe- cially weak, with maximum drop of 35s points. In explanation of the move ment it was said that the semi-annual dividend on which action is to be taken the latter part of this month, might be reduced or possibly suspended.
 The bond market continued active and prices were irregular. Total sales par value, s9,7O1 ,O00. United States govern ment 2s declined s.
