The Recovery 0vcrdOne'

In many brokerage houses the opin-
ion was expressed rather freely yes
,erdav that the recovery IN stocks
from the low levels reached on the
break Of April % had been too rapid.
The foreign news, II was pointed out
in support Of this contention, did not
Justify the sharp upturn. and the feel
ing seemed to be in conservative quar-
tors that the speculative element IN
the Street had jumped to conclusions
IN assuming that the international SIT
nation. as regards Germany, had been
cleared ND. II was felt that prices had
climbed too high on the favorable
tenor Of the Berlin press dispatches.
For this reason many traders sold stocks
Yesterday. taking profits out OF the
market. prefcrring a policy Of safety

Wall street has grown accustomed TO
big railroad earnings. Like the huge
profits Of the war contract companies,
they have been coming in from month

larity that the street has begun to &C

Of things. Yesterday. however. such a
remarkable batch OF fine reports for
March came TO hand that they just
couldn't be ignored There was the

DENIES WASTING
.Sl,ooo,0ooINSNOW
Commissioner FetherStOn
Says Bureau of Inquiry
Did Not Tell Truth.

Commissioner John T. Fetherston
Of the Street Cleaning Department
Yesterday challenged the statement Of
William Bullock. director Of the bu-
reau Of City Inquiry. that there had
been waste Of over sl,0OO,OOO IN last
winters snow removal. The commis-
sioner declared that Mr.. Bullock hSd
not told the truth.
"If the Bureau or City Inquiry
wanted 20 tell the truth about snow
said Commissioner Fctherston, IT
would state that the city saved $780,
600 last winter instead OF wasting
81 100000, and would have called az
tention 10 the fact chat IN spite OF the
extraordinarily heavy SNOWMAN nearly
fftv inches and the sbnormally low
temperatures in February and March
the main arteries were never blocked
and vehicular traffic was only very
slightly retarded at any time. either
during or after the snowstorms.
The Commissioner said that under
the new system Of using automobile
snow ploughs and sewers FOR snow re-
noval during the storm, and truck ic-
moval after the storm, streets we're
cleared a. about four times the speed
and at half the cost Of previous
methods.
The assumption that trucks were en-
ployed 81 regular rates OF 50 and 50
a dav needed no discussion. the Com
missioner said. The city awarded con
tracts for carting snow 10 the lowest
responsible bidder. he said, and the
price per cubic yard in Manhattan last
winter was 81 cents, the lowest price
for this class Of work ever paid by the
city. There was no basis for the state
mcnt that 100000 WAS wasted IN TINS
way.
Referring 20 the charges o. graft
the Commissioner said:
only a few cases OF apparent graz
on the part Of clerks, loading and
dump foremen were detected, and no
Street Cleaning Department employe
was accused"
Commissioner Fetherston denied that
$4,000 had been wasted in feeding la
bOrers
ANY one who would consider u a
waste TO provide sandwiches and coffee
at night for laborers working during a
snowstorm needs the attention OF the
humane society," he said.

COTTON TRADING
SHOWS NEW LIFE
Unfavorable Weather Reports
and Fear of Poor Crop News
Cause Bull Sentiment.

The cotton market showed increased
activity and strength Yesterday. with

and fears OF low condition figures from

tracts sold up 10 12.3oc in the late
trading, or the highest price reached
since the February break. The close
was firm, within a point or two Of the
best at a net advance Of - 70 II points.
Unsettled political and labor condi-
tons were naturally more or less dis

late trading.
Part Of the buying seemed 70 come
from Southern sources. while there

that source and scattering local sup

The weather map showed generally
unsettled conditions IN the South, with
cold rains, which seemed likely &c be
followed by lower temperatures. Frosts

Western belt, where termination has
already been delayed by unreasonable
