STOCKS PURSUE AN UNCERTAIN C0URSE|
Close With Level Quotations Little Changed-Specula-
 tive Sentiment Confused

New York. March 9.--After making new low ground for the movement during to- days early trading. cotton rallied sharply on covering, with the close firm at a net advance of to 10 points.
 Early selling seemed to be renewal of pressure which developed here toward the end of last week. Cables were lower, but were about as duo on the New York close of Saturday, and so far a sreneoted in talk around the local ring, local bears were not emphasizing any particular fea- ture in the mornings news.
 There was, nevertheless. considerable cotton for sale and offerings seemed to come from southern as well as local sources. These, however, were well ab- sorbed on the break through 111sc for July contracts and such few advices as were received from southern spot markets claimed q fair demand without any weak ness in prices.
 Tho market opened at an advance of 4 points on May, but generally unchanged to points lower and active months sold to points lower during the early trad ing. Trading became quiet as the market steadied on covering or little trade buying and there seemed to be little rally ing power until late in the afternoon. Then, near months shorts became more active buyers and the advance was en- couraged by a firiner turn in New or leans. Closing prices were practically the best of the day.

DECIDED STRENGTH
 IN LATE TRADING
Favorable News From the Capital Concerning Flu
 ture Legislation

New Orleans, March e.-Advices from Washington to the effect that there was little chance for any legislation in regard to the future trading until after thor orgh investigation were construed very favorably by traders today and in the last half hour the market took on a strong advance. which put it Il to II points over last weeks final figures. The close was at a net gain of to 13 points.
 In tho arly trading prices were put to points under Saturdays close by bear pressure, but the decline did not last long, covering operations from the shorts themselves furnishing the support the market needed
 The market stiffened in the early after noon and late in the session showed de- clded strength.
 Bullish claims that the market was oyersold and that the census consump- tion figures for February. due in few days, would be favorable also stimulated long buying.

CLOSE EF|RM;;4 ID b POINTS NET ADVANCE Cotton Rallies Sharply on C0vering-C0nsiderable
 Cotton for Sale

New York, March s.--The stock mar ket pursued an uncertain course today and closed with the level quotations little changed Traders shifted their position frequently and speculative sentiment was confused. Outside business was small and market movements reflected little nore than professional operations.
 London sold Amalgamated, Steel. Can adian Pacific and Union Pacific here early in the day, putting out perhaps 15.- D 900 shares This selling, together with the lower quotations cabled from abroad caused some 'irregularity at the opening It was apparent, however, that liquida- tion of various stocks, such as upset the market last week, had been suspended, a fact which encouraged speculative buy ing. St. Paul and Baltimore and Ohio recent weak features, made good gains at the outset. New Haven was advanced temporarily to a level nearly points higher.
 The whole market advanced briskly until weakness developed in the coalers. Lehigh Valley and Reading in particular were subjected to pressure and under their lead the general list fell to below Saturdays close In the late session the market hardened.
 The improvement in tone of the mar ket, by comparison with the unsettement of last week. was influenced by the bullisll statistical returns of the day. The Cop per Producers statement showing a de- crease in stocks of nearly $9, ,000. GOO pounds was considerably stronger than had been looked for. Domestic deliveries in F'e>. ruary made only a slight improvement, but exports continued heavy. A gain in commercial activity was indicated by the fortnightlS- freight car report. show ing sharp contraction in surplus equip ment.
 Some of the weak features of the mar ket recently made further losses Rock Island bonds sold down to new low prices The colaterals at the days low point of 41 showed a loss of l.: the refundng As at 74is, loss of 2l4. and the debenture hc at 61a, a decline of 4i4. Chesapeake and Ohio fell off sharply at the close. dipping under 52. United States express rose nearly II points, reaching s012, as com pared with 46 in January and 54 less than two weeks ago.
 The bond market showed an easier trend, although there were indications of support in some issues. Total sales, par value, s2,750,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

PRICES HARDEN
 FOR MAY DELIVERY
Diminished Farm Reserves Responsible-July Option
 Also Relatively Weak

Chicago, March 9.-Wheat prices for May delivery hardened today on account of diminished farm reserves. but the July option proved relatively weak. owing to ideal conditions for the new crop. The clcse was steady at the same as Saturday night to SGi4c higher. In corn the out come varied from ssc decline to isc ad- vance. Oats showed a net loss of tsc to ssQAc, and provisions setback of 1-5c.
 The brilliant crop prospects were suffi- cient for aggressive selling of May wheat in face of the bullish report in reserves. The case was different. however. in re- gard to the new crop months. Advancing prices for the more distant delivery brought out through commission houses heavy orders on the bear side. The re- suit was that July, although unchanged at the finish, averaged lower tha nduring the session that preceded.
 A small furry took place about midday in consequence of May short sattempt- ing to cover because o fgood sized falling off in the visible supply The absence of export demand, though, and the fine weather soon acted as a check.
 In corn, notwithstanding that reserves were shown to be the smallest since 1904 much selling was indulged in by both longs and shorts. Increasing stocks here and the slowness of shipping demand were held responsible.
 A sharp break in oats came as the in- evitable result of the Washington show irg of unexpectedly large stocks on farms The rush to unload carried down prices a cent a bushel before profit taking by shorts led to some reaction.
 Provisions developed weakness after a firm start. Scarcity of hog arrivals was ignored when the price of feed began to tumble.

COIOrs in Pictures

In Joking. at picture the eye cannot assess each color which makes up the pattern at its exact value. This Is chiefly due to the irremediable restlessness of the eye. and to it's memory, which is always impressed with an after-image of any color at which the eye's lens is directed. says the London Post.
 Add to this that the eye focuses diff ferently for different colors, and that all portions ot the retina are not equally susceptible to color-and it will be real ized that hardly any color in a picture, or a landscape, leaves the same impression that it would have if detached from all surroundings.
 These are some of the obvious truths of which painters make empirical use on their canvases; and according to an es- say by Professors Keller and Mcleod some of the more unusual effects of the post impressionists are examples of at- tempts to make use of their physiological principles.
 Thus they use the fact that colors placed side by side influence one another; that gray, for example, will be influenced at its edges by the brighter color next to 1t; and that stippled dots of pure color may be made to produce by combination the effects of tinted grays of various tones.
 Among other devices of which a physio- logical explanation is attempted is that of the violet line which the post-impres- sionists use to outline objects in order to give the impression. without shading. or rotundity, or of projection. The eff feet of such line is best shown in one of those numerous still life' studies where a vase stands among fruit. If the picture is viewed at such dis tance that the line just disappears the vase will not only stand forward from it's
 Ina rlx cro,,ud btlt also will aupear fo ne shaded at it's edges. The effect is most marked if the vase is painted in a yell low. or in some color well removed from blue. or which will answer as well. in some washed-out color approaching a gray.

PROSPECTS GOOD
 ON MORRIS AVENUE
Week Opens With Brisk Wholesale Trade-Egg
 Market Weak

Morris avenue began the week yester- day with good business and the mer- chants spoke enthusiastically of the chances for gooo weeks trading. Prices are practically unchanged. al- though the egg market Is yet weak. Poultry is inclining downward, but no material changes are expected soon.
 In the produce market prices are nor maj, the supplies fairly good, and the demand brisk. Sweet potatoes, 1t is said. are practically off the market but the price shows no rising tendency, and it is not believed there will be a ma terial shortable.
 Fish dealers report good supplies and say the demand Is all that could be ex- pected Prices are unchanged.
