posal TO Raise sos, 100000.

Nathan /. Amster, chairman OF the
independent Rock Island stockholders
committee, in statement yesterday
announced that there was strong prob
ability that ne would join with the de-
benture representatives and the nay
den stockholders' group in bringing out
a new reorganization plan. Mr.. Amster
said that to date only $S,000,O0O has
been subscribed under the plan to raise
S25, 900 900 he made public few weeks
ago for readjusting the finances Of the
company. This, he admitted, was not
enough to make his plan successful.
In quarters with close knowledge
Of the progress Of the negotiations be,
tween the committees II was predicted
Yesterday that an outline Of the new
reediustment scheme might be made
public this week. According to report
opinions still differ as 90 the amount
of money the Rock Island will need for
its rehabilitation. The Amster inter
ests, il was said. still maintain that
s25. 900, 900 will be enough. while those
fayoring a more drastic reorganization
declared that al least sb0,0O0.0OO should
be raised for immediate requirements.

COTTON DECLINES
ON PROFIT TAKING
Prices Break from New High
Ground and Close 4 TO 8
Points Lower.

After making new high ground for
the movement. the cotton market broke
rather sharply during yesterdays late
trading "a result of moro or less
general realizing, while there may also
have been some selling for a reaction
London cables painting peace prospects
in somewhat less favorable colors
seemed TO increase the disposition to
take profits, and the close was barely
steady at a net decline of 4 to 9 points
July contracts sold up to 131ec during
the middle of the day, but declined to
1880, and closed at 1880.
The market opened steady at 8 de-
cline Of points on May, but gener-
ally unchanged TO 8 points higher, with
the active months selling 3 TO points
above Tuesdays closing figures right
after the call. Trade interests were
good buyers, and Liverpool bought
here, but there was good deal of
realizing, and the market gradually
eased of during the morning, with
active months selling back TO or a
shade under the final figures OF the
previous day. The market then
stesdied, however, and right after the
publication Of the weekly weather re-
port, advanced very sharply on a re-
newsl Of aggressive bull support, COW
ering and replacing by sold-out longs
This movement carried prices some IL
20 20 points net higher, but demand
then tspered of, for the details Of the
weather report read more favorably
than the summary. and In the later
trading the market was unsettled by
the less optimistic view of immediate
peace prospects. Closing prices were
at practically the low point OF the day
Southern spot markets as officially
reported were unchanged TO % points
higher. Exports for the day were
6.673 bales, making 4,620,771 bales SO
far this season.

APRIL RECORD FOR u. S.
STEEL HITS NEW MARK
9,829,551 Tons in UNIFIED
Orders.

The United States Steel Corporation
Yesterday reported untitled orders on
hand at the end Of April amounting TO
9.s29.551 tons, a new high record and
an increase Of 49S,55O tons, compared
with the statement for the month OF
March. The gain over April year
ego was 6,667,307 tons.
Shipments Of the corporation in
April wete estimated at the rate of
81 900 tohs a day, and orders were be-
heved to have exceeded shipments by
10000 tons a day. THIS indicated that
new business booked was at the rate OF
about n 900 tons day, compared with
almost 10000 tons day in March.
The steel trade publications for the
week say that domestic business mas
slowed down, but that war orders con
Gnue 10 be taken IN large volume
"The Iron Age" says;
"The placing of new contracts for up
wand of 100000 tons of shell steel IN
the form of blooms and rounds and ne
gotiations for as much more war steer,
including $4,000 tons for Russia and
Italy. are the chief developments OF the
week Otherwise the steel trade has
slowed down, as it has long needed
THE labor situation in the Pitts
burgh district is clearing up. The loss
of big iron and steel production was
small. but foundry and machine snop
strikes are still noticesbly affecting
consumption" 49,. ..,,o,,
The Iron Trade Review" says; Ne"
buying Of steel is quieter IN ali olrec-
tons, but the universal report OF max
ers is that their obligations from specl-
fcations and fresh orders sun keep
ahead Of their shipments. DelVetles
in most eases are so far ahead that
buvers apparently feel that the specu-
Istive element involved IN new con
tracts at present prices is unduly IN
creased"
