COTTON MARKETS..
NEW YORK. February 15.-The cot
ton market was nervous and unsettled
early today. and after opening steady,
at a decline of 10 to 23 points. fiuctua-
tions were irregular. Liverpool at
tributed the break in prices there to
liquidation influenced by further re-
strictions on speculative business. While
local sentiment was unsettled by re-
ports of increasing transportation diff
culties. Some traders thought this
might work out bullishly on near posi-
tions. but obstacles to distribution
doubtless promoted some of the early
selling, which carried May contracts
off to 1897 and October to 1856. or
about % to % points net lower
Futures opened steady: March. 1899;
May, 1900: July, 1903; October. 1855;

Reports that crop preparations were
being delayed by unfavorable weather
and spot house buying Of the near
months gave the market firmer tone
toward the middle Of the morning.
There was also buying here by houses
with Liverpool connections and scat
tered covering on which May worked

A fair demand met the decline, and
prices reacted to within a point of
Yesterdays close. Here the market
heard the rumor that England had for
hidden further trading in cotton fu-
tures. except to close out old business,
and also that imports by that country
in the near future would be restricted
to foodstuf's and munitions OF war.
Prices fell TO new low level, stand

General Firmness During the Morn

Scores of Listed Shares Do Not Show

in Late Trading.

NEW YORK. February 1J.-Increasing
tension in foreign affairs and the pre-
vailing belief that the United States is on
the verge of a declaration of war was
seen in the extreme caution and restricted
trading on the New York stock market.
The usual backing and filling: little
speculation. some small investment and
a disposition on the part of both bulls and
bears not to do anything, with modest
changes in the way of losses and partial
recoveries with no great changes. is the
order of the day during this waiting
period.
In the meantime business is becoming
clogged through the congestion OF the
railroads and the latter are serving no.
tice on agents refusing practically every
thing but perishable freight. because the
seaboard freight accumulation has be-
come very heavy, with so few cargo
boats sailing.
