Stock Reaction in
New York Continues;
Dealings Are Small
Regional Bank Selections Main FL
nancial Topic, But Effect on
Prices Is Sentimental.

NEW YORK. April 4.-Reactionary
tendencies which developed in yester-
days closing dealings continued in the
stock market on resumption of business
to-day. Early 'recessions were incon-
siderable However. and apathy was the
distinguishing characteristic.
Overnight consideration of the Sc
lection of regional districts under the
new banking system did not modify the
adverse criticism current yesterday and
the trading element was disposed to re-
gard this as an additional restraint on
the security market. Any influence
this matter may have exercised on
prices, however, is purely sentimental
for some time must elapse before the
system can he tested.
No break in the monotony of the
trading occurred In the latter half of
the session. Dealings we're wholly pro-
fessional and amounted. to little more
than an evening up OF traders con-
tracts. As result prices were shade
firmer, but changes were confined TO
narrow fractions and interest was who'll
ly lacking. Rock Island collateral trust
as regained a portion of yesterdays loss,
despite the prevailing opinion that the
financial plan for reimbursement contem-
plates a large issue of preferred stock.
Financial discussion centered almost
entirely upon the banking matter which
for the time being has assumed the posi-
ton of first Importance in Wall Street,
Although the belief prevails that the
railroads will obtain some portion of the
advance in rates requested of the In
terstate Commerce Commission the ac-
ton Of the board in announcing that It
could not determine the matter until
after the oral arguments set for April

There are many men in the trade at

New High Price.

NEW ORLEANS, April 4.-Ths
cotton market recently has shown
strong upward tendency, and to-day
was no exception to the rule. For a
Saturday market, to-day's was the
most active in many months. Liver
pool came in booming, spot sales in
that market totalling 10000 bales, at
an advance of three penny points.
Futures in the English market
were also surprisingly strong, causing
the local market to open at an ad-
vance of to points Realizing
sales held prices down somewhat dur
ing the early trading, but Indications
of more unsettled weather in the cot
ton belt started shorts to covering
later in the day, resulting in July con-
tracts selling as high as 1878, the
highest level reached on the present
upward movement
Closed Firm.
The market closed firm around the
top, with price showing a net gain for
the half day of II to 70 points on the
active trading months. Spots were
officially reported steady and Lice
higher on all GRADES. Sales amounted
to 1895 bales of spots and $50 balos

Cotton Advances 81
A Bale in New York
Buying Orders for all Options on
Large ScaIe-Trade Reports
Help.
BY EDWARD LOW RANLErr.

NEW YORK, April 4.-Cotton con-
tracts showed more decided strength
to-day. An advance of over 81 per bale
took place during the first hour of trad
ing with buying orders on large scale
both for the new crop and for the
spring and summer months. The open
ing was firm at to 10 points advance
in response to strong Liverpool cables
and heavy sales of spot cotton in that
market amounting to 10000 bales at
729d for middling the equivalent OF
about 14l2 cents per pound in American
money.
Other influences included very opti-
mistic trade reports from England.
where increased business is reported
American trade conditions in cotton
goods were also favorably opened with
an advance in print cloths of 1-l6 cent
q yard for the week
Weather conditions were more favor
able for the cotton belt and the fore
cast, while showing no prospect of
higher temperatures tomorrow, Is not
otherwise unfavorable.
1t would appear from reports which
seemed to be reliable that a concerted
plan has been formed by Southern
spinners to accept delivery from the To-
cal stock on from 30 600 to 1000 bales
1t is believed these interests made large
purchases in this month through their
New York brokers early In March, when

News and Notes
Of the Grain Crops
BY JOSEPH F. PRITcHARp.

CHICAGO, April Corn has again
been the leader in speculation, and
those who are carrying the load at
Chicago displayed more or less back
bone in holding the price above a
certain level. The cash situation was
against the bulls, as well as holders,
as the transactions from day to day
were abnormally small when the
prominence of the Chicago market
is considered. Those who have ad-
hered closely to the bear side Of corn
have sold that grain freely, and on
many occasions they have followed
the market as it worked downward
and peppered it full of corn. The
East has been out of the cash situa-
ton at Chicago right along, and The
bears have made capital of this fact.
Not only st. Louis, but Omaha and
Kansas City, report the cash situa-
ton as slow. The Nebraska market
has made some sales for foreign ship
ment recently, but the other South
western points claim that the bids are
out of line.
The Argentine corn continues as a
thorn in the side of the bulls of this
country, as it is coming in here free
", and growers of that country are
inclined to meet the views of buyers.
The surprise of the week was tine
purchase of cargo of Argentine
corn to come here via Montreal. The
price paid was Sc cents and the
quality of the corn was reported as
excellent. Enough of this grain has
been sold to come to the United
States. as well as to the importing
countries of the Old World, to keep
the situation bearish for some time to
come.
Those on the bear side of corn are
among the largest people in the trade
here, and include James A. Patten
and his following. Arthur Cutten,
John Barrett and many others. The
bulls are believed to be the down
State crowd, and these people are
strong ,nancially and good judges ~
conditions. They figure that there
will be an improved demand for the
cash article, and that the market will
be pulled out Of the rut in which it
is now resting.
The volume Of trade in wheat has
been quite small Of late and has been
confined largely to the room-t trading
element. While there were reports
of green bugs in Central Oklahoma
and a sample sent here to The Mod
ern Miller. it IS believed there has
been no damage done up to date by
the little pests.

Coal Prices Hold as
Strike Arbiters Fail

KNOXVILLE, April As a result
of the failure Of arbitration to settle
the present labor trouble in the
Northern coal fields, operators in this
section have exhausted their supplies
to meet the demands and have had
to order additional shipments. April
finds them with practically no coal
on hand. Operators producing the
better grades OF domestic coal advise
that they are very largely sold up for
the stocking season.
Prices all around are az good, II no.
better, than at this time last year
The steam coal situation is very un-
satisfactory, with no immediate relief
in sight.
