NEW ORLEANS Feb. 2G.-Except for
small gains around the opening the cot
ton market today stood at "a decline. be-
end OF the session and closing at the
lowest, at net losses OF IS 10 43 points
March traded as low as ILL and july
as low as 1901. and all months made
new low levels for the season.
That much Of the selling was for long
account was quite obvious from the
character Of the trading and longs were
scared out Of their cotton mainly by re-
ports Of serious riotipg in Alexandria.
The heavy selling toward the end OF the
day was due TO the fear that political
news Monday night might be unfavor-
able. Offerings were increased by the
urfavorahle tone of weekly reviews OF
trade ia general and because of the re-
newed weakness noted in cotton goods
markets

After the close the trade was thrown
into considerable excitement by the an

SHORT COVERING
ADVANCES STOCKS
Overnight Developments and Better
Reports Caused Advances.
tsy the Associated Pressl

NEW YORK. Feb 26.-The variable
gains registered in the course or to-
days short stock market session were
largely the result OF short covering
induced to an extent by the more IA
vorable tenor of overnight develop
ments. Advices insofar as they dealt
with Industrial and commercial con-
ditions indicated a slow but steady
restoration of confidence, but there
were no signs of any pronounced cas-
ment of money rates.
Gains of one to three points were
registered by the popular industrials'
such as minor steels, motors and their
specialties. tobaccos, textiles, and
about a score of unclassified issues,
including International Paper and
Industrial Alcohol.
Selling for profits caused nominal
recessions from best prices in the
final dealings, but net results again
suggested an over-eXtension Of the
bear position. The few exceptions to
the general recovery We're among rails
and shippings. Reading displayed es-
pecial weakness in connection with
proposed dissolution plan. Sales
amounted to 325, 900 shares.
A fair amount of business was done
in bonds. but those issues, including
the liberty division, and recent in
ternational flotations, were mostly ir
regular. Total sales. par value, &c.,
$50. 900.
Changes in the clearing house week
~ statement were unimportant actual
loans and discounts showing the nom
inal contraction of about $780, 900
and excess reserves expanding by
little more than $2.6OO,OOO. The one
noteworthy item was a decrease of

The foreign exchange market was
in a state OF deadlock. that condition
being attributed by dealers to uncer-
tainty in connection with next weeks

Randolph is related to several of the
same wealthy families as Billy Whitla,
a Sharon boy who was kidnapped in 1910
and later found in Cleveland, after a
countrywide search. John Boyle, who
died a year ago in the penitentiary at
Pittsburgh, and his wife, Helen Boyle,
who recently was released from the
same institution, were implicated in
the Whitla kidnapping.
James P. Whitla, father of the boy,
when consulted to-day by Mrs. Ran
dolph, advised her to refer the matter
to the police.
The elder Randolph is grief stricken
over the letters received, and Ran
dolph's wife is on the verge of pros
tration
