COTTON SHOWSA
 MUCHF|RMER TONE
Trading Less Active After Excitement of Past
 Week

New York, February 19.-While still more or less nervous and unsettled the cotton market showed generally frmer tone today with trading much less active after the extreme excitement of last week and with the close steady at a net gain of from 10 to 2l points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 7a13 points in response to bet ter cables than looked for and early ad- vices from the south indicated relative ly firm interior markets. There was quite a good deal of cotton for sale on the initial advance and prices reacted few points during the early trading under realizing by Saturdays buyers for a turn and a renewal of bear pressure. Houses with foreign connections were good buyers, however, and the market soon began to firm up on the demand from this source and moderate support from the old bull leaders. Continued re- ports of steady southern spot markets contributed to the steader tone of the market and while business was quiet enough to suggest continued lack of con- f1dence in the permanency of the upward movement, trading became a little more active on a scale up. After showing a net gain of about 16 10 2i points with July contracts selling at O.45c or about 95 points above the low level of last Friday, the market met increased of- ferings and subsequent fluctuations were more or less irregular, but closing prices were within or points of the best. It seemed as though the steadiness of the Liverpool market offset the unfavor- able British labor advices in spite of he ,eports that ever s0o.000 coal miners had already handed in notices of their in- tention to quit work on March l, ana the talk around the ring suggested Una, the market here was mainly influenced by the renewed demand from big trade in terests and the reported failure of south ern spot markets to weaken materially as a result of the sharp break in cover ing. Private cables from Liverpool re- ported scattered covering.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans. February 19.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance or to : points. Cables were fairly favorable, although private messages from England spoke in a pessimistic manner concern ing the threatened coal strike,
 The market wore a decided holiday air and the volume of business in the early trading was small The weather over the cotton belt was very favorable. but this did not influence prices adversely as sev- eral reports of a continued good spot de- mand in the eastern belt were received At the end of the first half hour prices were to points advanced.
 The entire morning session was lull but very steady Bulls offered enough support to give the market an advancing tendency. The bears were less aggressive than they were last week and did moi show any inclination to increase theiI short lines.
 Bulls were able to make some capita out of reports from the interior of the cot ton belt. showing that preparations fol the new crop were decidedly backward. A At the end of the first call the active

 Countess von Aehrenthal has received an autograph letter of condolence from Emperor Francis Joseph and telegrams from the German Emperor and many other notable personages throughout the world.

.B|G WHEAT RECEIPTS
 PRIMARY CENTERS
Close Firm and Above Parity-Bears Incline
 to Be Gleeful

Chicago, February 19.-It looked today as if the bull clique in wheat was switch ing. The May option to July inclusive was observed in this direction. Sales of the early month damned the price down under the dollar mark, but the close was firm and above parity.
 Latest trading left quotations varying from a shade off to s4c up as compared with Saturday. Corn finished unchanged to isc lower, oats at an advance of AMsse, and hog products the same as Saturday, or l0c to 12Mc down.
 Big receipts of wheat at all the primary eenters in the United States led the pit to ignore for a time the relative frmness at Liverpool due to a decrease in stocks at that port. Instead of giving any at tention to foreign news. most of the ae- tive spectators had their eyes on figures showing that wheat was piling into ;he chief western terminals at a rate twice as rapid as a year ago. falling off in the visible supply total had some effect as an offset but was discounted as hay ing been expected.
 As the session advanced there was a SuDStant1al uDlufn on account oi Silpli | covering The renewed firmness, especially in July and September. was explained as partly the result of fear over the fact that the crop scare period wass just at hand. May ranged from 99lsc to s1.Ootz. with last sales s1.ooasc, or a net loss of a shade in price.
 Corn swayed with wheat. The heavy movement from the farms tended to keen prices from recovering as readily for the more expensive grain.
 Bears were inclined to be gleeful over predictions of more than 1000 car loads to reach Chicago tomorrow. May ranged from 667se to 671h@67ssc, closing steady isc down at 673sc.
 Despite some weakness at the start oats appeared to have no lack of friends. Bulls reinstated to considerable extent. Outside limits touched for May proved 10 be 5i7sc and 52asq53lac, with the close 52ssc. or a gain of l4c net.
 Hogs in practically ilimitable supply made packing house products shaky. A steadying influence came to the front in the shape of news that exports were much larger than at this period last year. Final quotations were 7lec to 10al2lse easier on pork, but lard and ribs were not cheapened to exceed cents.
 Future quotations were as follows:

Huhbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, February 19.-(Speeial)- Cable advces from Liverpool today
 stated that the coal strike would prob ably be so arranged that it would not become serious. on these reports both our market and Liverpool slowly im- proved until 1t was bought freely In
 small market by the brokers who have been identified with the recent ad- vance
 Outside of these two factors there Is little change, the movement of the
 crop continues very heavy, the south sells on advances but not on declines. there is better demand for cotton goods, as usual at this season of the year. This last feature Is welcome relief from the dullness of the past few
 months
 The traders expect that these brokers will try to advance prices, but they are not inclined to follow the upward move
 ment as they were last week. Liverpool should advance points to- morrow.

Montgomery Market

Montgomery, February 19.-(Special.) The local produce market today showed signs of an advance on all vegetables. Celery, which has been scarce for more than two weeks. showed a rise, and lima beans had jumped from 6c to 7s4 c since Saturday.
 Rutabagers were at s2.25 a sack. Other vegetables, suclf as spinach, string beans bell peppers and new po- tatoes were on hand, but all at high figure.
 The supply of eggs is steady but the price of BOG per dozen still maintains.
 Grape fruit is still hanging on at a price of 8 per box.
 Local dealers hold out little hope for a decline in prices under the present conditions as vegetables are only com ing in slowly, with no immediate re- lief in sight.
