SHANNON & CO,s LETTER

New York, December S0.-(Special.) The generally calm surface of the cotton market was ruffled to some extent by the announcement of the suspension of wire and commission house with numerous branches ano who were members of the different exchanges where they were generally credited with being short because of the opinion expressed in their public utterances. The market first ad vanced sharply but later fell back, as 1t was realized that a matter so tenn porary could hardly have any far reaching effect on prices. Much more important were the continued favor able advices from both foreign and domestic goods markets.
 Scattering realizing as well as sell ing for short account on the reaction theory is bound to be in evidence at times, but as long as it is not accom- panied by hedging against the actual in larger volume resultant declines will not, we think, go far or be more than temporary and will provide good opportunities to buy spring or sum mer months.
 The day in stocks has been marked by the failure of large house, member of the stock exchange. the announcement made by the commit tee being that following investigation by the business conduct committee they announced their suspension. The market has been very confused as to the meaning of this failure and after being strong in spots it is closing weak. It is bear failure and we see no reason for selling stocks on ac- count of it, saving that reports have it that many of the operations of this firm have been far from regular and that this may bring unenviable criti- cism on the stock exchange. The mar ket today has also been subjected to considerable selling to establish losses and no doubt this has had a certain amount of influence on the course of prices-Post & Flagg.

GLENDALE, April 5.-In the Sun day game between the Glendale Greys and the Wickenburg Miners the Min CTS were victorious by the over whelming score of IA to 5. The game was played in the Glendale lot and was most ragged affair. Err TOTS of countless varieties were made. which went long ways toward mak- ing the interest lag. However, the boys believe now that they have lost their jinx, in that they have given their new suits thorough tryout, and in their next game different story will be told.
 Next Sunday the Greys will leave on the early morning train for Wickenburg for a return game. It is hoped that by that time Terrill's arm will be in the best of trim and thus give the local boys a great mainstay on the mound.

NEW YORK, April B. Relaxation of money rates infused a firm to strong undertone to the broader stock market today, many favorite issues, particularly those comprising the speculative groups, registering gross gains of one to nearly four points.
 Prices were irregular and uncertain at the outset, some stocks displaying marked heaviness. The list went rapidly forward, however. after call money opened at six per cent estab- fishing the minimum initial rate since January 20, and easing to 51z per cent. In the open market demand money was freely obtainable at five and even Az per cent. Rates for time funds were mixed, 50 and 90 day loans being negotiated at as low as 6ia per cent. While bank acceptances and discounts were unaltered.
 Other hopeful developments em- braced resumption of operations by large independent steel mill and several better statements of earnings by leading railroads.
 These were offset in a measure by the omission of the Kelly Springfield tire common cash dividend and cables which indicated an extension of the British coal strike and signs of acute financial disturbances in Holland.
  stock market movements were the oils, motors and their subsidiaries, steels, and railway equipments, un- classified issued, profited to a more moderate extent, the list reacting one to two points from top prices in the final hour, when Sumatra to- bacco reacted 6h points. closing at net loss of 114. Sales 5S5,000 shares.
 Notwithstanding industrial and British French and other important foreign rates of exchange were variably higher. Greek remittances continued to fall however, with the Danish rate.s
