QUOTATIONS WORK
LOWER IN STOCKS
Speculation Opinion Is More
Bearish-Railroad Stocks
Under Pressure

New York, February 6.-Quotations
today worked lower slowly on the
stock exchange. There was no import
ant change in the situation to .stim-
nlate speculation. and during most of
the day the market plodded on in the
dull way of the last few sessions ap-
parently unable to break away from
a dead level. Speculative opinion, how
over, was more bearish The recent
tendency of the market encouraged
traders to work for reaction, and in
the latter part of the day selling be-
came heavier. a number of the pop
ular stocks closed at materially lower
Figures.
Further unfavorable railroad reports
from December, and Washington ad-
vices indicating the probability of a
delay of the decision in the freight
rate case operated against the rail
road stocks some of which We're un-
Ger heavy pressure. New York Cen
trail was weak, falling off to 81 Is. Rock
Island shares resumed their decline
The common at S1s and the preferred
at 13% touched new low levels. In
the Industrial list, the coppers were
affected by a break in the metal mar
ket in London. Steel held up fairly
well, being supported in expectation
| of a strong showing in it's forthcoming
monthly statement. If a gain in un-
silled tonnage is shown, as is appar-
entity assured. it will be the first in :
crease in 13 months.
London's operations here were on a
reduced scale. This trading was all
on the selling side, but was not large
enough to affect the market only
5000 shares being sold for foreign ac-
count.
In the outside market there was a
severe slump in stocks of the Standard
I Oil group. Excited dealings in these
shares during the past few weeks,
with soaring prices in most instances.
led to relapse today. Declines ranged
from to 45 points.

mess in convertible issues. American

SMALL NET ADVANCE
IN COTTON MARKET
Unexpected Strength Is Dis
played Toward Noon Send
ing Prices Up

New Orleans, February 6.-After
period of easiness in the morning the cot
ton market displayed rather unexpected
strength and went to a small net ad-
vance. closing steady 1 to points up.
Throughout the session profit taking OPP
erations by shorts We're the main support.
Early In the session prices went 8 to 7
points under yesterdays final figures in
sympathy with bearish cables and expec-
tations of unfavorable weekend figures.
The stormy and cold weather. sweeping
the belt made the bear side cautious and
finally weekend covering set in on rather
large scale. The demand was rather
more than the ring could meet. and in
the early afternoon the more active
months we're half dozen points over yes
terday's close.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. February Especial )-Liv-
erpoo1 again led the decline, but in our
market there was a disposition to look
for recovery after so sharp a break
abroad. So the market has shown. with
a momentary exception. rallying ten
dency.
Possibly the spinners were buying a
little more freely on the reduction in
prices. Anyhow Willie the feeling In the
long run is bearisli on account of the
large movement OF the crop here and of
the East Indian crop in Bombay, the
decline met with the resistance of buying
orders
Liverpool is expected to recover tomor-
Cow at least or points.
