RISE IN AMERICAN TOBACCO STOCKS Minimum of Dealings and Narrow Fluctuations
 Notable Features

New York, May 23.-A minimum of dealings and narrow fluctuations, save in some of the less negotlapse issues, were the most notable features of today's unin- |teresting stock market. The undertone ranged from irregularity to steadiness, but nobody seemed to attach much signifi- canoe to the movement which was largely |if not entirely professional.
 The rise in American Tobacco and allied securities on the .curb" was traceable to runors of increased dividends. which found some credence in the fact that earn tngs of these companies are probably larger than before their dissolution. To- days activity in American Can was att tributed to the speculative interests iden- tihed with that company, coupled with the prospects for large fruit crops, which must rebound to the advantage of the can manufacturers. There was some late ac- fivity in the local traction shares, based Pn subway negotiations, but the closing while steady, left the general average of prices practically unchanged.
 American stocks were the only steady Feature of the London market. other de-
  Fousness resulting in part from the calling Pf strike by transport workers. Another Hump in wireless shares added to the de- pression Of prices and caused liquidation Pf other securities. The statement of the Bank of England for the week added an- bther $l000,000 to that institutions gold holdings,. with its proportionate reservces Town about 1 per cent. The most note- worthy feature of the report submitted by the Bank of France was an increase Pf approximately s3S,0O0Oo0 in discounts ind advances while gold holdings in- Freased by over sSs000.000. Reports of riots m Budapest made for some disturbance pm the Vienna bourse, and may cause un- Settlement later on the continent.

Some 50 days loans Q Berlin were reported today at 4s4 per bent, which was decidedly over the regu- ar rate.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York May 23.-(Special.) )-Today' 8 market has been a slowly declining one under liquidation brought about by the good weather over the cotton belt. This is the record of tho day. From time to time small covering orders of hedges from the continent checked the movement bul the close was at the low point, some F points under last evening.
 Transactions were upon q small scale, showing the indispositlon of the trade to look for any permanent decline in prices should the market weaken under continued good weather. It will do so against the prevailing belief that any de- cline will be only of a temporary nature.

OUR GROWTH.

Everywhere it is predicted that Ho Springs is going to take on something of boomlet within shs next twelve months. There is no particular req son assigned other than that we are to have more liberal government ol affairs.
 There k no doubt but that Ho. Spfigs will take active steps forward within :he next year but the cause will not be truthfully traced to any other reason than hard and co-opera tive work on the part of our citizen ship here
 A liberal government will minimize our troubles bring about peace and help us to have more time to devote to the general upbuilding of the com munity.
 But the real things that will con tribute to our success are further ance of our advertising work extend ing l. to the south increasing our pat ronage through that source; demand ing of the government that 1t expend money here for improvement within q decent proportion of the ratio of money spent at other government res. erva-ions; using our new bonding priv ilege with good effect for permanent public improvement such as We must have; encouraging foreign capital to come in and make investments and such other tangible things.
 There will be no doubt about the af vancement of Hot Springs under proper conditions for 1t has always made steady advances under all con ditions but if we do encourage tho city to progress instead of either hlndering or doing nothing this re sort within year will come into some Of the recognition that | should have had years before.
