TRADING CHECKED BY NERVOUSNESS Cotton Market Quiet and Fluctuations Are
 Narrow

New York, Feb. a.-Nervousness over the shipping situation appeared to be fresh business in the cotton rarlSet again this morning and trading was very quiet, with fluctuations mar row and with the close steady net un- changed to 3 points lower. The market opened at a decline of 1 to 8 points under overnight selling orders and during the early trading sold about 8 to points under last nights closing figures
 Liverpool was shade better than due on the American close of yesterday and London advices seemed somewhat reas- suring, as they indicated that war risks on oversea commerce were still being written in large volume at comparatively low rates, but the talk around the ring here reflected very much unsettled sen- timent and there was some Wall street selling. There was nothing. however, to indicate that apprehension of check in the export movement were causing any change of attitude on the part of the southern spot holders, as there was no hedge selling here and prices soon steadied on moderate demand from trade interests. General business re- mained very quiet, and after the rally to about last nights closing figures, prices showed little further change.
 The New York cotton exchange re- ceived today from the department of ag- riculture the tentative types of mddling stained and low middling yellow and blue tinged cotton, and a meeting of the revision committee was called to fix differences applying to deliveries on the first March delivery day.
 Monday will be a holiday in the Amer lean markets, while Liverpool will be open for business as usual.
 It is reported that war risks on ship ments of both grain and cotton to this country to British ports have increased during the past few days, but that the advance has not proved sufficient to check business.

NARROW MARKET AT NEW ORLEANS Weekend Session Closes at Net Loss of Two
 Points

New Orleans, February 20--The week end session in cotton closed at a net loss of points. moderate vol ume of selling, divided between offer ings from liquidating longs and shot cotton, put the market 3 to points under yesterdays close at the lowest while the steadiness derived from the large mill takings for the week and the heavy export movement brought about an advance of l to 3 points over yesterdays finals at the highest. It was narrow market.
 Mill takings were larger than ex- pected-349,0 900 bales-and they might have stimulated buying but for the holiday Monday and the nervousness over the situation abroad
 In the weekend statement it was shown that an unusually large amour; of cotton was afloat for European ports, Hester putting it at 100000 bales, and longs feared that during the week to come some of this cotton might be in danger

RENEWED SELLING
 LOWERS PRICES On Recovery Underlying Strength Is Shown
 by Stocks

New York Feb 20.-Renewed selling of stocks at the outset of today's session was in such volume as to bring the aver age prices down to the lowest level for the present movement. Speculative favor ties and various specialties declined from l to points before buying appeared and the downward movement was arrested. On the recovery trading became dull with an irregular close. On the whole, the ease with which prices were re- stored suggested considerable underlying strength.
 Wall streets attention was again di- rected across the water. latest develop ments offering little immediate hope of any diminution of the recent strain London's markets were dull and Ameri- cans were in light request. Local condi- tions were further complicated by recur- rent weakness In foreign exchange and extreme nervousness in the cereal mar kets. There were intimations that our bankers were continuing their negotia- tions for the placing of large foreign credits here, but definite or conclusive details were lacking.
 Loose-Wiles first preferred was the only stock to register new minimum price today declining points to S6. South ern railway preferred fell almost points to within a fraction. of it's established price of 45 and Harvester corporation dropped 15 points to it's minimum of 55.
 After the close of the market the stock exchange announced these new minimum prices, effective February 23: American Car and Foundry, 40; American Locomo- tive preferred, 80; American Steel Foun- dries, 24 Baltimore and ohio, 65; New Haven Mining preferred, 24; Loose-Wiles second preferred, "A; National Railways of Mexico first preferred, F; Pressed Steel Car preferred, 94; Seapoard Air Line preferred, S4
 The bond market was heavy, con- 1ributing cause being the further selling of investment issues for European &C., count Total sales par value aggregated e1,17O,00o.
 United States registered advanced 1s of l percent on call during the week.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York February 20.-(Special.) Jour local traders continue to feel very bear fsh as to the future course of prices, bringing forward the large supply to be carried over and the absence of any de- termined effort to reduce the acreage. Nevertheless. the market closes practi- cally unchanged.
 Our mail advices from Liverpool con tain the following report on the cotton manufacturing industry in England:
 "One point which may figure very large ly in the consumption of the present crop is the quantity of heavy goods or coarse counts of yarn which are being required for military purposes, which will greatly increase the weight of the actual cotton spun as compared with that of ordinary years. There is an enormous demand at present for wool. much more than can be supplied, and this may have in it's turn a considerable effect in the demand

FRESH DECLINE IS CAUSED IN WHEAT Conditions Abroad Result in Unsettled Market
 at Chicago

Chicago, February 2o.-Dangerous con diuons developing abroad for export ship ments brought about a fresh decline to- day in the price of wheat Notwithstand- ing rallies. the market closed unsettled at 11sc under last night. Other net losses were: Corn, B@1@1lsc; oats, 34@1c and provisions, 71sG371ac.
 Corn was under pressure from the bears the greater part of the day. Seaboard assertions of a big export call for oats were Intellectual to overcome in that cereal to results of the depression of other grain. Provisions showed decided weakness, especially pork.

.SALVATIONIST Tells
OF LIFE IN SLUMS
Conditions Among Poor in New York
Described by Col. Parker in
Church Address.

1T is the right Of every child to spend
a part Of the time in the country away
from the crowded streets" said Lieut..
Col Parker. OF tho Salvation Army. last
night at the Mount Vernon Place Meth
odist Episcopal Church South, Ninth and
X streets northwest. in an illustrated
lecture on PROBLEMS OF the Poor
Col Parker told of the frightful con-
ditions that exist among the poorer
classes in New York and something of
the work the Salvation Army is doinG
to better the situation.
In some houses said Col Parker.
more than 100 people live and make the
place their workshop as well as their
home. The conditions represented are
such as we find IN no factory. The child
Ia Dor law prevents little children from
" orkinE for pay. but it does not prevent
them working for nothing at home in
vastly worse conditions.
More than 1900 bedrooms In New
York's slums are without windows and
the children are reared like so many pigs
in filth and disease. Many of the build
inEs are firetraps. while others are so
dirty that they are fireproof. The roar
of the elevated train takes the place Of
the notes OF songbirds i'll the lives OF
the little ones who are brought up
there"
Col Parker showed a chart OF three
city blocks in the New York slums
marked to indicate families elected on a
single Saturday night for failure to pay
their rent and there were over 100 In
that territory.
He said that the problem was not one
of poverty. but OF education. TO teach
the people how to live.
