REACTION IN COTTON.
Poor Foreign Demand and Spot Of
ferings Weaken Values.

NEW YORK, April 18.-An early
advance on prospects for continued
dry weather in Texas was followed by
reactions in the cotton market today
under realizing. July sold up to 2o.15,
or 15 points net higher, but lost the
advance, closing at $500. The general
market closed barely steady, net
points lower to points higher.
Cotton on shipboard awaiting clear
ance at the end of the week was esti-
mated at 90,631 bales, against 1858
last year.
Private cables attributed the decline
to the relatively easy showing Of
Liverpool through lack of trade call
ing, poor spot demand and freer spot
offerings.

SALES ONLY FAIR
IN STEEL MARKET
Hard Week for Copper--Tin
Prices Up-Lead and Zinc
Are Lower.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, April 1S.-Aside from
fairly active demand for structural
material and more or less buying by
railroads, the steel market during the
past week was quiet. Buyers appeared
to be well supplied and little disposed
to make new contracts ahead during
the present period of uncertainty.
Producers were meeting the situation
by reducing their output, and, while
prices were little changed, the under
tone was only about steady. Pigiron
was dull, with prices irregularly lower
and the market generally was easy.
Copper Market Weak.
Copper lower, unsettled conditions
abroad, combined with heavy March
production figures. have had a bear.
ish effect on sentiment and with buy.
ers generally holding off, prices have
been marked down to new low levels
for the year. Offerings by both second
hands. and producers were reported at
the 1914 cent level and the week ended
with no indication of any immediate
Improvement in demand. Finished
products are said to be moving in
about the normal volume, but the de-
cline in the metal has been reflected
by reductions of IS to Z cents in
prices for brass and copper products.
Tin has moved up a full cent on
buying by dealers and shorts. The
weakness in other metals has been
offset by the falling off in shipments
from the Straits and and small insight
supplies.
Lead Sales Remain Slow.
Lead has been erduced by the lead.
ing producer, but buying showed no
enlargement Producers seem inclined
to accumulate stocks at current price
levels.
Zinc declined to new low records for
the year under increased offerings and
only q light demand.
Anthony showed further weakness
early, due TO increased arrivals, but at
the decline little better inquiry de-
veloped for nearby metal and a
steadier tone prevailed.

Of the Palm Theatre with tremendous
success
The play, thrilling and enchanting.
represented a real panorama of current
life, eloqucptly depicting most sensa-
tiOnal dramn in the realm of love.
Mr.. Louis Josephson. the manager of
the Pnim Theatre, distinguished
comedian, most ably carried the spec
tators into the heights of hearty
laughter and brought tears of joy 10
their eyes. At the most dramatic mo-
ments. when the public was over
whelmed with grief, Mr.. Josephson's ap-
pearance alone would dispel the grip
ping gloom and relieve the depression.
Mr.. Nathan Weinstein, the well known
character performer. whose successful
playing in Denver for the last two sea
sons, gained for him a great number
of admirers, fully justified their ex-
pectations. Mr.. Weinstein. who took
part in two leading roles was incom-
parable in bot hartistry and perform

His part as Richman was m )re i'm
pressivc than that of Aronson.
Mr.. Itzkowtch, comparatively new
star on the horizon of local Jewish
theatrical art. was very fascinating in
his role of gray old devoted father.
He was very natural in his appearance
and exhibited keen understanding of
his part
His charming voice has captivated
the entire audience, who persistently
demanded ''cncorcS.' Mr.. ItzkowitZ is
undoubtedly an invaluable asset to
Jewish art.
Nine. Shafiir, the jewel actress of

talent in performing one of the leading
roles of the play. Her lyric voice
stirred the hearts Of the audience and
brought about stormy applause. She

In general, the entire company made
