ness. The supply of green stuff is plen-
tiful and the week has started off well.

are scarce and the market is rising. 1t
is said that eggs are searcer this spring
than for several years past The re-
tail dealers keep the wholesale market

a hard time getting shipments. One
large dealer reported a good sized ship
ment yesterday but the market generally
is rather tight.

day and there was no change In prices.
The fish market is now well supplied,
now shipments having arrived yesterday.
Quotations are unchanged. Snapper is

COTTON UNCHANGED

New York, May 5.-Business was cont
paratively quiet in the cotton market to-

regular with the close steady, net nn-

The opening was barely steady at de-

OF 10 net decline of some to 10 points
during the morning. Reports of good
rams in the southwets and favorable pri-
Vate crop advices combined with some
"hat disappointing Liverpool cables, aud
reports that certain of the FAN River
mils would close down for an indefinite
period beginning next Monday, seemed
TO account for the decline. On the break.

way of realizing by recent sellers, as well
as buying here against sales in the Eng

the lowest during the early afternoon.
humors that the old crop long interest
was preparing to receive further deliver

items In the news to create a more ag-

ropean political advices were considered
rather more reassuring and 1t was ru-
mored that the shutting down of some

Private cables attributed the decline in
Liverpool to scattering liquidation of the
old crops, which was supposed to be the
result of a few additional notices. Houses
with Liverpool connections were among
the early buyers here, while in the late
trading spot houses were buyers of July.

Whv Man Eats Man
ON the London Daily News.

From the London Daily news.
"Method in the madness Of the canni-
bal" was described by Mr.. Dan Craw-
ford. the African pioneer missionary, in
describing his experiences among Central
African natives to large audience at the
Bechstein hall
The cannibals, he said, believed that II
they ate man they were doubly man, and
they ate man because they said man
alone was careful of what he ate. No
cannibal would ever eat a domestic fowl.
The wild cannibal was tremendous be-
lever in the Immortality of the soul.
"Thev beat London" declared Mr.. Craw-
ford. 'this precious, hoity-toity London OF
yours. You say so-and-so has departed
the natives always say he has arrived.
OF David Livingstone they never said
He is dead but He sleepeth.'
''In Africa every man is his own Words
worth. If you take a header and live
90 or 80 years in the wild, you can gush
poetry, and you do not know you are
a potential poet.
Telling the story of his return to civil
ization after living nearly all his life in
the wilds of Africa, Mr.. Crawford said
that when he reached the Cape to Cairo
railway and saw his first train for q
wears, he 'blubbered like child.

Close at New Orleans Was

New Orleans, May 5.-The course of
prices was undecided and hesitating in
the cotton market today. Bears were
able to influence the opening their way,
but scalpers preferred the long side tenn
porarily and bought on the idea that more
of the short interest would have to cover.
Weather news was called more favorable
than unfavorable, but after the early trad
ing it did not play much part in the
market
The opening was steady at a decline of 4
to points on poor cables and favorable
weather and crop reports. For a while
moderate offerings sefved to hold the

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, May 5.-(Special) )--Advices of
good rains in Western and Northern
Texas extending over Oklahoma brought
about decline In Liverpool. Many Amer
ican selling orders were reported.
The demand came from Continental
Europe where the belief that the Balkor
troubles were' finally on the road
actual settlement without furthes war
fare is spreading. Europe was also a
buyer here and in New Orleans. This
demand absorbed all of the Southern and
local offerings for both south and north
are more bearish than at any time this
season.
The closing of a large Fall river mil
intensified the bearish feeling. In the
last hour the effect of the earlier Euro
pean buying closed the market steady
to 3 points lower There are really
very few bulls in the market and the
sentiment is Overwhelmingly bearish.

London Buys Steel, Anal
gamated Copper and
Union Pacific

ne" York, May 5.-The decided improve
nlent IN the European political situation
consequent upon Montenegro's decision
10 yield to the powers, and the resultant
strength of securities abroad exerted the
dominating Influence upon the stock mar
ket today Expectations of speedy settle-
ihent OF problems which have menaced
the peace of Europe for months opened
up the prospect of the repurehasing of
american securities by foreign investors.
LONDON, in fact, has been buying stocks
on every favorable opportunity for some
time, and before the opening here Ameri-
can stocks in London were marked up
Sharply. The situation was one which Of
Tered no comfort to the bears, and there
was spirited bidding for stocks to cover
when the market opened. London also
was IN this market, buying most heavily
of Steel, Amalgamated Copper and Union
Pacific.
Operations on the long side were carried
on more confidently, and in the first hour
there was a quick upturn resulting in
gains for important issues of 1 to points.
The action of the market during the re-
mainder of the day showed that the i'm
provement prospects abroad had not pro-
duced sufficient effect here to bring about
aggressive and sustained buying for the
long account. Trading grew dull and
prices eased off, although in the final
hour the list rose to around the top again.
optimistic reports which wall street has
received from Europe have several times
proved disappointing, and there was a
general, disposition to await definite de-
velopments before building too strongly
upon hopes for peace.
There were several developments at
home which served to take off the edge of
any tendency toward enthusiasm. Trad
ers were disappointed at the supreme
courts refusal to extend beyond July !
the time for completing the Hartman dis
solution, and Union and Southern Pacific
sold off. Announcement that exporta-
tion of gold to Paris had been resumed,
with the engagement of 100000 gold for
shipment, also was accounted a bearisfl
factor. This rate of exchange suggested
that a premium is being paid for the
gold, and the foreign rate of exchange
market was unaffected.
Bonds showed an improved tone. Total
sales, par value, S1,S70,000
United States bonds were unchanged on
call.
