TRADING QU|ETON
 COTTON MARKET Mexican Situation and Spot Quotation Decided Factor
 in Cotton Prices

New Orleans, March 24.-Infiuenees in the cotton market here today were evenly balanced and prices barely moved. At u cir highest the trading months were ? to points over yesterdays close and at the lowest they were f to 6 points under. The close was net unchanged to points up
 The chief factor against the marke. was the easier spot situation and the loss of 12 points in local spot quotations Reports from the interior claimed less demand and larger offerings and also that buyers had loaded up recently on the idea that there was some founda- ton for peace talk in Europe. Thes Mex ican situation was considered both bear ish and bullish, bears contending it would unsettle things generally while bullish traders considered it would stimulate trade and increase the consumption of cotton.
 Telegrams from Texas indicated the drouth there had not been relieved ef- Actually, but bears were of the opinion that rains would fall over night. More or less cotton sold short yesterday on prospects of rain in the west was GOV cred during the day

COTTON RALLIES
 ONLATE OFFERING
Market Fluctuated in Early Session and General List
 Closed Steady

New York, March 24.--An early de- cline was followed by rallies in the cotton market here today with July selling off from 1210c to, 11.95c and then working ups to 1204cs with the close at 12.OSc. The general list closed steady at a net advance of l to 4 points.
 The market opened firm at an ad vance of 1 to points on rather active buying of July by local brokers whose orders might have been from trade in- terests or Liverpool. May contracts sold at 1193c and October at 12.17c on or immediately following the call With active months generally showing net gains of from to 8 points during the first few minutes. It seemed, however that there was a good deal of cotton for sale on this bulge, particularly from Wall street sources and prices soon weakened. Rather vague rumors of an easier spot situation probably stimzl- lated the offerings and the mark ct broke rather sharply during the mid dle of the morning, with May selling off to 11S3c and October to 12.04e, or to 8 points net lower. Trade interests were moderate buyers of old crop months on a scale down, and follow ing the publication of the western belt forecast, which held out little hope of further rain in the southwest. prices steadied on coverings. Local bulls seemed to consider that the rainfall so far reported in Texas had been in sufficient to relieve drouthy conditions, while the talk of an easier spot sltsa- l. fur 17gaf 16f1 and the market sold up to 11.93c for May and II .94c for October during the early afternoon. Demand then slackened and later fluctuations were narrow and irregular, but the close showed only moderate reactions.

SPALDING BASEBALL
 GUIDE PUBLISHED

The fortieth annual issue of the Spald- ing Baseball Guide has just been pub lished, and, as for a number of years past, is edited by John E. Foster of New York whose long connection with the national game, both as a writer and in an executive capacity, makes him pecu- larly fitted for the position.
 Although the number of leagues in or ganized ball that went through last sea- son was smaller than for years past, the size of the guide has not been decreased Besides the usual chapter on the world series, with accompanying sketches of the players on the contending teams, the contents also include reviews of the sea- sen Tn the National league by Editor Foster and the American league by Irv- ing E. Sanborn of Chicago, while the other leagues that finished the season are all represented by short accounts of the activities in their various organizations.
 For some years the official rules have been conflicting in describing the meas ureirents to be observed in laying out the diamond. Under Erection of the officers of the National and American leagues the rules relating to the distances have been revised and new diagram drawn to correspond
 The illustrations are up to the usual standard of the guide and comprise ac- tion pictures of prominent big league players, group pictures of leading teams and portraits of personages of the mo- ment in baseball.
 The obituary of MT. A. G. Spalding. founder of the guide and one of the or gsnizers of the National league, is pre- scented in this book, together with the resolutions adopted by the league and signed expressions of regret from Presi- dent Tener and Col. A. c. Mills Presi- dent Tener was member of the Chi ,cago team of the first globe-trotting party of ball players, so successfully con- ducted around the world by Mir. Spald- ing in 1SSS-s9, and Colonel Mills was third president Of the National league and long associated in the direction of it's affairs with MT. Spalding in the early days of that organization.
 The guide will be sent to any address on receipt of 10 cents by the American Sports Publishing Co.,, 21 Warren street. New York

.BULL|SH REPORTS ADVANCE WHEAT
Adverse Weather Reports Send Prices Up and Mar
 ket Closes Strong

Chicago, March 24.-Decidedly bulIish crop reports. lifted the wheat market today after an early decline. The close was strong, 12@124c net higher with May at s1.osa4 and July at s1.6Oa4 Corn wound up 1s c to Ii O ssc higher; oats off Is O ssc, and provisions with gains of 715 @171ac.
 According to well known authority there was an almost total absence of favorable crop advices from the do- mestic winter wheat belt. Thin and backward fields were said to form the rule throughout the entire region. Even in Nebraska and Kansas, the two best states, conditions were declared to be adverse as compared with the two last years. Some of the principal dis tricts in Oklahoma were put down as having had no rain in D days and there was said to be persistent evidence of heavy winter killing in Missouri Illi- nois, Indiana and Ohio. It was chiefly on this showing that the market re- covered from early weakness, and then scored a net advance.
 Lower quotations from Liverpool, as seribed to so-called political develop ments, were largely responsible for de- clines at the outset in the wheat mar kets here The bears also for a while made much of rain reports, which after ward seemed to have been to a great extent misleading.
 Corn swayed with wheat. In the first part of the day selling by distressed holders reached heavy total but shorts absorbed the offerings and then the market rallied Trade in oats was of a local chacter Absence of any urgent de- mand from the seaboard tended to keep prices from recovering fully with wheat and corn.
 Higher prices on hogs strengthened provisions. At one time, however, the market suffered sharp temporary set back, as 8 result of the transient de- pression of corn.

TRADING QUIET ON
 STOCK EXCHANGE War SpeciaIties Show Some Activity, But General
 Business Is Dull

New York, March 2i-Railway shares supplied measure of support to today's dull and professional operations demand for investment issues partly neutralizing irreguarly elsewhere. In fact the inquiry for rails at times suggested a cloak to cover liquidation in other quarters.
 Reading, New York Central, the Pacf- fcs and Erie, as well as some minor is- sues were absorbed in large amounts, their aggregate exceeding any recent turn over. Readings strength, much of which Was later forfeited again coincided with a demand for Western Maryland common and preferred, thereby reviving rymors of Rockefeller buying into the first named property
 The general list was held back, how ever, by the spasmodic heaviness of the better known specialties, particularly Crucible and Lackawanna steels, the more prominent metals like American Zinc and Butte and Superior, petroleums and mercantile marine preferred. Zines setback was attributed to new financing " hch is weak, according to advices con- corning Mexico.
 United States steel again was free from it's pressure of the mid-week, but was relatively inactive. Official esti- mates of the steel corporation's earnings for the first quarter, ranging from S5o- 00OOG0 to $6O,000,600 were circulated, but actual figures will not be available for another month.
 Aside from it's dullness the sessions tracing was notable for a further con- traction. Dealings comprised far less than the usual number of stocks, some oi the sem-actiye equipment and lnous- trials remaining unquoted all day.
 Ali ma rl1ets for interstational exchange were steady, francs making up some oi yesterdays weakness With steadiness III forms of foreign remttances were nom inal Bonds were steady with a dirnuni- ton of trading in Anglo-French 5s. To- tai sales of bonds par value were $S,- 260,00o.

INTEREST GREAT
 IN MONDAY BOUT Draak-Faust Match Is Ex- pected to Prove a Big
 Drawing Card

Wrestling continues to be the sport talk in Birmingham this week, the cause of which is the coming Draak- Faust match at the Birmingham Athletic club next Monday night. At the last match between Tom Draak and Andy Kandrat the crowd was large and enthusiastic and the prospects, that the crowd will be still larger next week Word has been received by the friends of Draak here sthat he is in the best of condition and will return to Birmingham today for the last two days of training before the bout Draak went up into Kentucky and Penn sSlvania for two bouts this week and will return in fine shape for the go with the big German.
 The reports concerning the wrestling ability of Faust still come in and are most flattering- Zysbisco was forced to go the limit to down the husky Ger man. This match was witnessed two years ago before the big Pole left this country for Europe, where he is now a prisoner of war somewhere in Russia Faust is possessed of phenomenal strength as well as great staying powers and de- clarcs he will win from the subject of his countrys enemy Draak knows the ahility of Faust and stoutly declares that no German will ever pin his shoulders to the mat.
 It is expected that more than natural wrestling rivalry will enter into this bout. as both men are most loyal to their country. Then, too. the tactics of the two men are entirely different Draak is quiet does his work well and method ically. Faust is demonstrative, rough and wants every match to go in dis tinctly catch-as-catch-can manner In his bouts with the big F'renchman, Raoul De Ruen, and Kara;Sanoff the terrible Turk. two of the toughest men in the game he showed he could beat them at their own game. Draak, in his quiet and de- liberate manner, is expected to cope with the rough German without disastrous re- suits.
