Shriner, Byrne, Ryan and Wood,

And Traynor, the coach, blue and

TRADING CONTINUES
 ACTIVE IN COTTON
Prices Make New High Rec considerations
 Irregular /

New York February S.-Trading con tinued very active in the cotton market today and prices again made new high records for the movement, although senti- ment was evidently very nervous and fluctuations irregular. The close was steady at an advance of to il points on the old crop, while new crop months were from 1 point higher to 6 points lower.
 The market opened early steady at an advance of points to a decline or 4 points, near positions being higher in response to very firm cables and bullish overnight spot advances rom the south, while later deliveries reflected heavy realizing. There was a very big demand around the opening figures. put profit talk ing was on a tremendous scale. and prices eased off to about tho closing figure of last night on the active months during the middle of the morning.
 The southern news, however, contained nothing to stimulate reactionary senti- ment with most advices reporting con .inued active spot demand at advancing prices, and the market turned firmer again around midday with prices reaching the highest level of the day and movement in the early afternoon, when May con tracts sold to 1o.2Sc and July to 10 64c, or l9 to q points net higher and lsc or more above the low level of last Tuesday morn ing.
 Trade interests were good buyers on this advance, while there was renewed cover nng by shorts, but realizing again became in fba 1Qta trading and clos. ing prices were about 10 points off from the top on the more active months. July contracts here sold at premium ovel October during the day.

Montgomery Market

Montgomery, February S.-CSpeeial. )-- The GEE famine in Montgomery still con tinues, with little relief in sight. This condition is believed to be largely duo to a report circulated Saturday to the effect that the egg scarcity had been removed and that dealers were receiving plentiful supply. Dealers claim that this report probably had the effect of pre- venting farmers from bringing to the city an additional supply of eggs
 Wholesale dealers today offered from 37E to 10 cents per dozen for eggs, and there were few to be had at this price Retail dealers are asking from 45 cents to 50 cents per dozen. Local dealers all believe that the present situation will shortly be relieved. and that soon the market will be flooded with eggs.
 Vegetables are more or less plentiful. There are no string beans on the mar ket at present and new potatoes are scarce.
 Canadian rutabagas are still scarce, and it IS believed that this condition will not be relieved until the weather gets warmer.

LARGE RECEIPTS :
 IN THE NORTHWEST
Reports of Settlement of La Dor Troubles in Argen-
 tina Disastrous

Chicago, February S.-Big receipts in the northwest and reports of the set clement of the labor troubles in Argen from under wheat. Accordingly closing prices varied from the same last night 1s m Lc down. Corn showed gain or A ssc net: oats finished unchanged. and hog products at an advance of 3 @1Oc. Undoubtedly the weakness or wheat would have been more pro nounced for the strength of coarse grain. That influence has an unmistak able rallying and sustaining power, which served part of the time as an almost complete offset to the bearish results of news from Minneapolis and Buenos Ayres. At the first named cen ter the arrivals of loaded cars were almost double the total of a year ago, with stocks there showing substantial Increase for five days.
 Statements that the Argentine rail road strike was at an end seemed to make certain a material enlargement of the exports from South America and caused the bulls to worry until some rather extraordinary purchasing in the corn pit became about more or less of a reversal of sentiment as to the whol, cereal list. Notwithstanding that a leading authority went on record as declaring the outlook nearly without exception as sound for winter wheat.
 Between the opening and the close May fuctuated from s1.03A to s1.034 with trade in the end steady at S1.03 E loss of s@Ac compared with 2i hours before.
 The buying of nearly million bush els of corn for a speculator who has re- gently been prominent on the long side of oats had a quick effect in lifting prices for both the grains mentioned Sellers became suddenly scarce in the face of such an aggressive move. De- nials of export sales eased the market a little. Primary receipts were said to be the largest on record May ranged betwekn 67si m677sc and CSC g, closing a4c net higher and steady at 6Ss C. Cash grades were firm. No. yellow was quoted at eco 6iac for car lots.
 Oats advanced in response to the strt ngth in corn and because Of buy ing on the part of leading bulls. Later there was somewhat of a setback ow- ing to profit taking and as result of free selling from commission houses Outside Hints touched for May were 51 a4 m51Mc and 52gs m52tsc with last sales Sc up at 52Ac.
 Prices for hog products crept up, no general selling pressure being in evil dence In consequence pork tonight was 10c dearer all around and the rest of the list advanced Dc 10 71a m roc.

RUMORS FOLLOW
 HALDANE'S VISIT

London, February S-In spite of yari- ous rumors relative to the purpose of the visit to Berlin of Lord Haldane. secretary for war, there seems to be little cause to attach importance to the event One rumor had it that he had gone to Germany to conduct negotia tjons in reference to the restriction Of ormaments; another said his visit was connected with the cession of Walfisch bay in South Africa to Germany, while nccnrdlng 10 another his purpose was to secure the pardon of Bertrand Stew art. a London lawyer. whose recent sen tencing to three and half years inn prisonment by the imperial court at Leipsig for espionage. has caused so much resentment in England.
 There is every reason to believe that Lord Haldane has gone to Germany merely to see a friend on private busi- ness and that his visit Is n-political.
