NEW YORK, April 10.-Cotton
opened steady today at a decline Of
points to an advance Of point. There
was considerable bullish comment on
Standard Cloth statistics, which showed
sales 20.2 per cent over production with
an increase Of So per cent in untitled
orders for March. These figures ap-
parently had either been discounted or
were Offset by the relatively easy cables
and favorable features in the weekly
report Of the Weather Bureau.
After some irregularity, prices eased
OF to 1895 for July and 1895 for Oc-
tober. Active months showed net de-
clines Of about 10 to II points by the
end Of the first half hour Selling was
attributed largely to realizing or liqui-
dation through commission house
sources.

HARDWARE TRADE GOOD.

NEW YORK, April 10 Especially -
Market reports are practically unani-
nous this week in conceding highly
satisfactory business conditions in the
hardware industry, Hardware Age will
say tomorrow in its weekly market
summary. Retailers In general have
been placing more liberal orders, and
shelf hardware Is forming a large
portion of them, while Spring merchan-
disc is, Of course, in top demand. Sport
ing goods are noted among the very
active lines.
Obviously the more settled tempera-
lures are responsible for the satisfac-
tory condition at this time. Building
is not, however, as active as it was
hoped for, but optimism Is felt for this
branch of the business.
The steel business and other major
industrial factors are operating at a
high level, and this with the excellent
crop outlook is expected to keep bust
ness in its present satisfactory condi-
ton or better.
Prices are firm and jobbers are con-
tinuing to receive advances on products
into which copper and brass materials
enter
Collections are showing a slight i'm
provement.

Sioner Of Corporations. shows a profit
and loss surplus of $685., 629, 1858, as Of
December 81 last, as compared with
1854, 1851 ,061 for the year 1927.
The indicated loss of SO, 221, 498 did
not take into account any dividends
withdrawn during 1928 by Henry Ford,
his wife, and Edsel Ford, the three
owners Of the company.

any payments were made to the stock
holding trio in view of recent expendi-
lures in connection with reorganization
OF plant and product which caused an

One possible explanation Of this ap-

in 1927 and 1928. Although stock divi-
