FINANCIAL.
General Condition..

Interest during the early days of the
week has centered principally on the
labor troubles. A strike on the part OF
the railroad engineers has been narrowly
averted, but II looks now as II some sort
Of compromise would be reached. 1t must
be admitted, however, that the organiZa-
tion of the engineers is a very strong
one, and that the members appreciate
the strength of their position. They know
that IL is possible to replace almost any
kind Of labor-brakeman. fireman. con-
ductors, &c-after a fashion, but that II
would be practically impossible to fill the
places OF skilled engineers. Aside from
this railroad engineers as class are
thrifty and well-to-do men. who could
probably stand a longer siege than any
other division Of labor. Their organiza-
ton is also a rich one. OF course the
railroads appreciate all this, as is shown
by the prOmptneEs with which they &C
cepted the offers Of mediation instead OF
giving the independent and arbitrary an
swers they have recently given to de-
mands in other departments. II is un-
questionably the fact that the railroad
will make strong and concerted effort
to use any advance in engineers salary
as a leverage to obtain advances in
freight rates sufficient to cover the ad-
vance in wages Whether this will be
tendency of the times is to make some
concessions OF this kind. as our legisla-
tors have a better understanding OF the
position of the employers of labor than
they had a few years ago. If this Is
done the railroads will gain greatly by
the revision. not necessarily in actual
revenue. but in perfecting amicable ar
rangements with their most important
division OF skilled labor.
The crop conditions still remain some5
what unfavorable except in the spring
wheat district The season is everywhere
backward, but a backward season does
not necessarily mean IA small crop. I'll
is, however, a disadvantage, particularly
in cotton, as only ideal weather cond-
tons in the growing season Will produce
large crops when we gSt late stock. |
The technical situation in the stock mar
ket appears to be slightly improved be-
cause Of selling on the strike news on !
This was divided between the |
voluntary retirement of weak speculative |
accounts and short selling. There ap-
pears to be quite a bit of manipulation. |
taking the form of building up of dormant !
specialties and the supporting OF prices
whenever the market shows signs of 1
acute weakness. There also appears to
be some good selling on the bulges in
some OF the leaders which have already
had a large advance. II was suggested
recently that we might run into a tenn
porary period OF hesitation or even re-
action. We haTe so far had only the
hesitation. the average prices being
less than a point below the high level OF
the year. which was reached on April
, we continue to advise. therefore. thati

COTTON MARKET.

Quotations furnished BY w. B. Hibhs Co,
members OF the New York Cotton Exchange. HibOs
Building.
New York Arril I.-Today's cotton market was
dominated by unfarorabe weather reports from the
Memphis district, Of the Mississippi Valley High
prices have recently invited heavy realizing sales
and other pressure and finally the Liverpool market
was reported at a decline this morning Of about
10 English points. with a corresponding loss In the
spot division Of that market. New York prices were
expected to follow this decline but both the weather
map and the forecast wcTe Unfayorable enough to
check the tendency TO sell.
On the opening call May sold at ll2. which Is
the lowest price yet recorded for the reaction
which recently set in The later months. however
were quoted higher than the previous close. and
the market received excellent support from the
larger speculative and spot interests
With the close of the week under review, the
worlds cotton markets appeared 10 show some
less stability but from direction was there nav
sign Of uneaSiness the part of the holders.
In Liverpool. the spot situation remained strong
throughout the week. with liberal tskinES b. en-
at about the highest prices yet recorded.
In the future department In that market some r.
slizing and perhaps short selling rcult Of more
favorable crop Conditions were about the only
features in the trading. and this mainly a
reflection Of similar c0ndtions ruling in the
American market.

Weekly Stock Market Report.

until the uncertainty is dispelled, II Is
wise TO accept profits on the quick ad.
vances and cOnfine purchases TO reactions,
The low-priced stocks are safe enough
either on fair recession or on scale
down. Our attitude is still a bullish one
for the long pull. but conservatively
bullish. Developments may warrant the
resumption Of confident operations on the
long side at any time, but would go slow
until the perspective Is clearer.
Conservative Improvement fn GEN
eraI Business.
General trade reports may be taken as
fair. and upon the whole, improving. The
United States Steel Corporation is oper-
ating about 80 per cent of its capacity.
and the independents, for the most part.
are doing equally well. Orders ahead
are reported lighter. but at better prices
which is vitally important, because for
long time past the manufacture Of
steel has shown rather meager profits,
even under the most advantageous cir
Cumstances. In the dry goods trade,
business generally is quieteT as the early
spring rush is about over and no SIM
liar special movement is due. Manufac-
turers are talking hopefully and look for
reasonably full occupation for their mills
for an indefinite time ahead. The note
of reports from all branches of indus
try, in fact, may be described as con-
servatively hopeful There is certainly
nothing like overproduction in any i'm
portant line, and retailers are. II any,
thing, understOcked, although for some
little time past they have been buying
with more confidence than during the
long, dull period last year. Statisticians
say that there is not evidence OF econ
cmy on the part Of the consumer, but
this must certainly be an influence. The
high range OF commodity prices. partic-
ulsfly in regard to articles most ur-
gently necessary, like wheat, flour. and
meat, fohces the consumer of small
means to be economical.
Increased Bank ClearinEs.
Two of the best barometers Of general
business. the bank clearings and the
of the railroads. showed up
well, the former especially. Last week
was, in fact, the fourth In succession.
where the bank clearings indicated a
sain of over 20 per cent from those OF
ast year. New York Is responsible for
the heaviest part of this. but Il is satis-
factory TO see that Chicago and st. Louis,
which have been tagging behind, are
picking up. No doubt the active specu-
ation in wheat has had something TO
10 with the increase in the clearings at
So far as New York Is con-
,erned, the speculative position in stocks
md the markets for staples was reduced
asst week, and It seems reasonable to as |
iume thar the large volume represents |
/ corresponding activity in the broader |
BUSINESS Of the country.

Stocks ouist but Firm in Short Ses-
sion, with Copper and Reading
Leading Features,
BY THOMAS G. sHoTwELb.


New York. April zI.-stocks were quiet
to-day, but held firm throughout the
session. The Coal issues were watched
with interest and surprise was express
ed that Reading held so well the sharp
advance Of he previous day. coppers
were strong and a little demonstration
was made in Tennessee Copper. Anal
gamated established itself al a new high
record. Among the industrials Writing
Paper preferred was a leader on a rumor
that the company might be absorbed by
the International Paper Company. The
hank statement showed an increase Of
s. 40. 500 in surplus reserves. There was
no material change in any other item.
Traders have been selling stocks in
anticipation of a bad statement OF quar-
terly earnings by the Steel Trust next
Tuesday, There IS no evidence that the
real people are alarmed. The commits
sion houses are not carrying heavy lines.
In explanation OF the rise of Tennes-
see Copper IL is reported unofficially
that the dividend will be raised to SIS
at the next meeting. The company will
show about $4,000 earned net for the
first quarter of this year and has con-
tracts that are certain TO increase the
earnings as fast as the additional acid
can be put out. The company makes
most of its money on sulphuric acid.
Rumors persist OF big copper deal in
volving the Utah, to be made public
soon after the return of the party of
copper men now on a visit TO the prop
erty.
In regard to the coalers il is known
that segregation must take place in a
few months, and the buying Of those
shares, and particularly of Reading, is
of the best quality. On the basis that
Lackawanna is selling. Reading should
be quoted at about 300. There is no off, |
ciaI warrant for saying segregation is |
at hand, the only reason for believing |
1t is being the plain illegality of the \
present organization.
