DECLINE FOLLOWED BY SHARP RALLY Cotton Closes at Loss of 9 to
 19 Points MANY CABLE RUMORS Early Decline Is Due to Reports on Egyptian Cotton and Bearish
 Private Cables From
 Liverpool
MANY CABLE RUMORS

New York, February 21.-An early de- cline In the early trading in the cotton market today was followed by sharp ral- ly. The offerings became heavy again toward the close and last prices were easy at a net loss of to 1s points.
 The market opened at decline of to E points in response to disappointing ca bles, reports of decline in the market for Egyptian cotton, and bearish private cables from Liverpool indicating lack of general confidence there and a small trade demand. There was some pretty good buying around the opening figures here which included support from trade resources and trading by near months shorts who appeared to be encouraged by reports that leading interests were preparing to take up large amount or cotton on March contracts and rallies of 6 or occurred from the opening hg- ures. This improvement was lost before midday, however, with the market becom- ing quite weak after the close of Liver rool under a renewal of bear pressure and. on the break which carried active months to a net loss of about 14d2l points, stop orders were uncovered.
 Following their execution the market steadied on covering for over the holiday tomorrow and with the assistance of some little fresh buying for a turn based on Washington advices indicating better prospect for defeat ting the Scott bill. sold ID several points from the lowest or to within 5@7 points of last nights close. But there was a renewal of demand on the rally from IS S4c to 1S.95c for May and d renewal of scattering liquidation or local selling sent prices off from the best at the close.
 Southern spot advices continued gener- ally bullish with private wires reporting large sales at New Orleans and the south ern markets officially reported early we,e unchanged to lsc lower, generally un- changed The market both here and dt New Orleans will be closed tomorrow while Liverpool will remain open.
 Receipts at the ports today 15.933 bales, against 22, ,4OS last week. and 12,269 last year. For the week, 10000 bales, against 1i4.s4S last week and S3.515 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans, 4759 bales, against 3143 last year. and at Houston, eG36 bales, against 35l1 last year.

GENERAL COVERING
 BY SHORT SELLERS Big Decrease in the Worlds
 Available Stock GRAINS GO HIGHER 
Signs Multiplied That the Reciprocity Bill Would Find the United States Markets Unprepared
 for Its Enactment

Chicago, February 21.-General covering open trades tomorrow while the exchange would be closed gave a lift today to the wheat market here.
 Besides there was big decrease shown in the worlds available stock. Closing prices were steady at a net advance of higher than last night. Oats with a gain of 1sc to B@Ac, and provisions either the same as 24 hours previous or more ex- pensive by 21ac to 5c.
 Lightness of primary receipts counting somewhat as help to the bulls in wheat, lowing the recent widespread heavy rain and snow. Then, too, cables were com paratively steady in the face of decline yesterday on this side of the Atlantic. Signs multiplied also that the enactment of reciprocity would not find markets in the United States wholly prepared. Cash Manitoba wheat equal to Minneapolis No. northern and has been bought by Chi cago dealers in the last "A hours t figures equal To 2c over July uellNSfy, llHlS clty. The grain is to be brought here in the event of reciprocity, but otherwise under the terms of purchase will go to Buffalo for export Under the same connection announcement was made that the north- western railways have agreed on uniform rates to Fort William, Minneapolis and Duluth if reciprocity becomes effective. Pending absence of any positive develop ment in favor of the bears, closing prices were steady, at nearly the top point of the session. May ranged from 9Oesc to 9l1sc, with last sales 4sc up to 9l3sc.
 Export sales put up the price of corn. Dealers were so surprised they did not much head the fact that the cargoes were mainly for spring loading and were at decidedly cheap prices. May varied from 489sc to 49ssc and closed firm ss@aac up at 49Ac Cash corn was in good de- mand. No. yellow finished at 41eQ4Sc.
 Oats advanced in consequence of the rise in corn. May fiuctuated between 3llsc and 317sm32c, with final transactions at 317sc, a net gain of 1s@a4c.

 The recovery did not last long. Heavy selling of the new crop months af- fected the entire list and the trading months were put II to 14 points under yesterdays close. Opinion concerning this selling was mixed. To some it was liquidation of long cotton bought be- fore the drouth in Texas was broken, while to others the orders came from prominent New York interests who are bearish on the outlook of the new season. Many traders argued that it great short interest was being built up in the very teeth of the threatened anti-future legislation. Toward the middle of the day the market was quiet and less selling pressure was in evidence. At noon the list was to : points under yesterdays close.
 In the afternoon session the market was steady the report from Wash ington that the supporters of the Scott bill were not making good progress and also on large spot trading. At ? o'clock prices were 1 to 1 points under yesterdays close.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, February Especially Cables were disappointing and ths market opened sharply lower with con siderable realizing sales. The tendency during the day was to even up prior to the holiday, with local operators in- clined to expect lower prices. liver pool was a moderate seller, and the south sold at the opening, but became "a fair buyer later.
 The trading was nervous and indi- cated a belief that March deliveries would be well cared for Coupled with this was the uncertainty of the Wash ington Legislation, which keeps the trade at high tension and discourages speculation, resulting in a drift toward lower prices, which if realized, may deter planting to some degree. South ern spot markets are steady and crop preparations are making good progress Until the agitation ceases higher prices cam hardly be expected to be maintained.

DAWSON GETS|NTO
 DELICATE PLACE ROsales Wants to Fight. RevOluti0nists Dislike
 United States A

Puerto Cortez, Honduras, via wireless New Orleans, February A.-Thomas C.. Dawson, special representative of the Uniled States, appointed to attend the peace conference on board the United states gunboat Tacoma, between the rep resentatives of President Davila anu Gen. Manuel Bonilla, arrived at this port yes- terday from Port Barrios. Maximo Ro- sales, who will represent the Davila gov eTnment, has been here several days.
 Mir. Dawson Is now awaiting the arrival of Alberto Membreno from Ceiba, where the latter is conferring with General Bo- niila before entering the conference.
 The conference will begin when all the representatives of the principals are here, which will probably be Tuesday morning. Nothing authentic concerned the pro- posas that will probably be made can yet be learned.
 General Bonila declares the revolution will continue if, he. is not permitted 10 assume the presidency Although avow- e6lv Bonilla's personal friend Rosalcs declares that rather than accept Bonilla as the nations head he and the four other liberal leaders in the country will fight to the bitter end. Davila has seen the handwriting on the wall and announc ss that he is ready to resign the presidency 
 an. to the United States. MT. Dawson was met with very delicate diplomatic situation upon his arrival.
 Rosales, more a soldier than diplomat, declares that the country will run Bred with blood if General Christmas and his army attempt to penetrate into the ,in- tefior However, Christmas declares that he can easily advance upon the capitol with little opposition if the United States ani Great Britain will keep hands off and permit his men to fight Much bad feel ing against the United States exists among the revolutionists because that government intervened. sf sl
 Both sides are avowedly advocates or the Morgan loan, but each accuses the other of opposing it. Rosales declares einph atically that the deal will go through as soon as peaces restored in this coun- try Bonilla's adherents assert that 1t wifi never be ratified as long as the pres ent government is in control.
 During the two weeks they were in charge of the place the blue jackets under Lieutenant Roper of the Tacoma trans formed San Pedro, town of 10,G00, into a veritable 'spotless town" and high sanitary standard was established.

New Orleans. February 21 Cotton fu- lures closed steady at a net decline of II to IA points.
 New Orleans. February 21.-Cottoa futures opened steady at a decline of 10 to IS points on the old crop months and a decline of 3 to 6 points on the new. The chief depressing in fiuence was the Liverpool market which stood much lower than due owing to heavy Egyptian selling, according to private cable messages. The weather map was dry and cold, far as the western half of the cotton belt was concerned and the absence of rain in Texas and Oklahoma gave the new crop deliveries a steadier tone than the old. Al the end of the first half hour of trading the market began to show the results of heavy proflt-t taking by shorts and the old crops were 6 points under the close of yesterday. while tn Q new crops were 3 to under.
