St.1l No Market.

In spite OF the reduction In the mini
mum prices there were no transactions on
the Stock Exchange yesterday in Atlantic
Coast Line. Louisville and Nashville. Sea-
board preferred or Southern Railway pre-
ferred In Southern Railway common
there was one trade at 10. the new mini
mum. In other words. these stocks were
stu offered al the minimum prices with
ont takers. while trades we're reported TO
have been made at lower prices outside.
Obviously, therefore. the reductions
made were inadequate to the extent that
they did not provide market Unless
conditions change additional cuts will be
necessary. Nevertheless the authorities
will continue to act cautiously. One rea
son for not making larger cuts at one
time Is that the commission houses must
be allowed an opportunity to adjust their
margin accounts. In regard to the ques-
ton OF minimum prices some comment
was aroused yesterday because Steel COM
mon came within three-uuarters OF point
OF the minimum. II Is not likely that any
change will be made in the trading price
of Steel until II has become rather dea-
nltely established that there is no marke.
for II above that figure Moreover 1t Is
not certain that II will ever reach the
minimum. for. rightly or wrongly. there IA
an impression that the powers that be will
do their utmost to support the stocks
which have the greatest influence.

ACTIVE COVERING
IN COTTON MARKET
Sharp Advance on Buying by
shorts and German Trade
interests.
SOUTHERN SPOTS STEADY

There was decided increase in activity
and a general broadening OF the market IN
co,on Yesterday and the result OF this
was net advance OF Il to II points for
IN. day. The close was firm around the
hrs, prices in spite of the fact that some
~ the brokers for trade interests which
recently have been big buyers sold freely.
The buying was set down to various
sources including short covering by a
sroup OF prominent floor brokers who are
said to have taken in short lines OF rela-
lively large size, while others attributed
IN. strength to the scarcity OF contracts
caused by absorption on the part OF Ger
man trade interests. One OF the news
bulletins presented "A statement from an
ANONYMOUS source crediting German trade
interests with purchases OF May and Oc-
,ober running up into hundreds OF thou

more bulish than 1t has been at any time
since the opening OF the market aud the
local professional traders. who have been
inclined 10 look for an easier market tenn
norarily, have abandoned their usual tao
ties Of lighting the upward tendency.
The closing prices yesterday marked a
recovery OF more than 50 per bale from
the low level reached after the publi-
cation Of the Government report on De-
cenber 10. but the tone OF the market is
better than IL has been since business
was resumed more than a month ago.
Southern spot markets show much
more steadiness than might have been ex-
pected in view of predictions that they

THE GRAIN MARKETS.
Three Cent wheat Rise-Exporters
Take 100000 Bushels.

The wheat tone was very strong yes
terday on the export news. Sales OF p
000, 900 bushels to foreigners rallied the
market in excited fashion. There were
some new high .evels established. the
Chicago May option ascending to within
exc. OF its record basis.
Foreign Governments were among the
buyers yesterday. Their representatives
are seemingly less mindful Of tho price
than many Of the home spectators. The
wheat now costs importers from $lso
TO $3.50 per bushcl delivered on the other
side.
Freight charges are from lie. to &c.
a bushel. TO which insurance and other
miscellaneous expenses have to be added.
after which come the inland ,ransporta-
ton charges in Europe. At Budapest
wheat Is quoted at $50 bushel Liver
pool and Paris prices are close to Sl.5j.
The liquidation for outside holders yes
terdsy WAS not large after the moderate
selling during the forenoon, which de-
pressed the list about a cent. Interests
with foreign connections unloaded and the
assumption was that exporters were not
in sympathy with the recent advances.
Subsequent events partly disproved this
theory. Some OF the confirmed bulls re-
nstated their holdings. apparently ignor-
ing the fact that the list had risen nearly
10 cents in about "A week.
A divergence OF opinion was noted rs
to the farmers attitude. After tho mar
ket closed there were assertions that
selling of actual wheat would be pro-
nounced while others averred that no
special lots would be lquidated on this
last advance. The moderate offerings
from first hands over Monday nigh,
| partly accounted for the easier market
tone yesterday morning.
Crop advices are much improved from
the winter wheat region. The official
snow map indicates that practically the

Central Leather.

There was no evidence Of any great
rush to take profits when the news came
out in regard TO the Central Leather divi-
dend action, although this news was gen.
orally expected. This WAS in spite of the
fact that the stock has had ten point

ton given for that Is that in rising TO 3S

reached before the war broke out At
that time also per cent. dividend was
predicted.
The war as has been explained many
times. had quite an unusual effect upon the

Foreign SELLING.

In a batch OF stock sold for foreign ac-
count. AS matter OF fact several
steamers which have come in since OPEN
trading in bonds was resumed have
brought over foreign sold bonds.
In the first two weeks that the bond
market resumed II was estimated that
$3.50 900 bonds daily were sold by banks
and banking houses here for foreign ac-
count. These bonds were sold ito arrive"
that Ia they were borrowed by the seller
here pending delivery.
One feature OF this selling was that In
nearly all cases the prices received were
higher than the selling prices set upon
them by their owners.
