THE T MARKET.

NEW YORK, April 1S.-The cotton
market opened steady at a decline of
6 points. an advance of 2 points, old
crop positions being lower in sympathy
with rather disappointing cables, while
the new crop reflected relative firmness
of late months in Liverpool and some
further talk Of delayed planting as a re-
suit of light rains in the western and
central belts. Old crop positions sold
off a few points right after the call, and
the market seemed to. be rather unset
tied, but at the decline there was sone
demand from commission houses and a
moderate renewal of bull support sent
all active months into high ground for
the movement before the end of the first
hour. The new crop led the advance
on buying by trad interests.
Realizing became heavy around 14.S1
for May and 1921 for October, or about
g to Z points above the closing figures
of last night, and the market reacted
a few points from the best late in the
forenoon with prices at midday about
4 points lower to 2 points higher. the
new crop remaining relatively steady
on private wires reporting excessive
precipitation in the Mississippi valley.

IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENTS
IN MO-. P. EXPECTED TODAY.
Two or Three Directors May
Tender designations.

NEW YORK, April 1s.-This after
Moons meeting of the directors of the
Missouri Pacific Railway Company is
expected to result In highly important
Developments. II Is learned that con-
siderable friction has arisen among the
directors and that zach of the opposing
factions has presented an ultimatum.
Just what the outcome will be ,annot
yet be definitely stated, but there is
reason to believe that two or three
directors are likely to present their
designations.
AS matters now stand, it is admitted
that the difficulties may be patched up
before an open rupture Ct George
J.. Gould has taken a very decided
stand in relation to the presidency and
also other matters, which, It Is under
stood. are not altogether liked by the
new interests which entered the prop
erty at the last annual meeting. Ger
tain negotiations are now under way
which may result in a smoothing away
of the misunderstanding, but at the
momen the situation is highly compli-
Gated.
A rumor is current that Paul NJ. War
burg, r. D. Adams and Cornelius Van
derbiit may retire from the board If
the present situation Is not adjusted
in accordance with their Views. =

day. The first sale was made at a
loss of IS from yesterdays close, from
which point the stock was forced down

point. The persistent liquidation in
this quarter and the lack of support
to Missouri Pacific disturbed confidence
to some extent, and there was some
show of weakness in the standard
stocks.
Noon-Prfces fell away steadily dur
ing the morning session, in which trad
ing was the most active in any day for
several weeks. Bar traders, encouraged
by the success of their drive against
Missouri Pacific, enlarged their opera
tons and forced recessions throughout

SPECULATION CAUSE OF
TOCCOA MILLS FAILURE.

: TOCCOA, Ga. April 1s.-Speculation
in cotton has caused the failure of the
Toccoa Cotton Mills. capitalized at
500, 900, and the Toccoa Banking Com
pany. with a capital of $1,000 900. Today
both concerns closed their doors. The
mills and the bank were owned by the
same capitalists. w. r. Bruce, cashier
of the bank, bought cotton for the
mills.
For some months Bruce has been
selling cotton short, but his speculation
proved unsuccessful and entailed a loss
of $3.50, 900. AT the same time heavy
losses were being made by the bank
to the mills, the notes being redis-
counted by the Lowry National Bank,
of Atlanta.
The Lowry bank began to demand
its money, and it was paid, but 1t
forced the two Toccoa concerns to the
wall.
Cashier Bruce frankly admits that
the failure came as a result of his
guessing wrong on cotton and has
turned over property worth $100, 900 in
part settlement of the losses. 1t Is
said no criminal action will be brought.
Bruce's cotton deals were made
through New York brokers.

THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, April 1S.-Disappointing
cables faced the bulls today in the
wheat pit. and resulted in lower i.rices.
Foreign markets showed such a slight
advance as compared with figures be-
for the Easter holidays that the effect
here proved distinctly bearish. Further
more news was favorable from India
and from the Argentine. Besides the
domestic crop situation and the
weather outlook continued optimistic,
and cash demand locally gave 10 sign
of improvement. Opening prices were
the same as last night to q down. May

Rain strengthened the corr market.
Offerings we're decidedly slim. May

of the latter cereal few traders were

Selling by packers carried doN'n pro-
visions. First transactions were at the
