NEWS AND GOSSIP
of the Fleecy Staple.
New York. April 29.—The loci! cotton
market at the outset this morning wns
easier thin eipected on the old crop poll
tlons, but about right, according to ca
bles, on the new crop months. First prices
were 4S6 points lower. Tbo differences
were narrowed again by the strength of
July and pressure on October and Januaryl
The latter waa due to good weather over
Sunday and favorable conditions throughout
the South today.
Bad crop accounts from Georgia,
Mississippi and Alabama promoted
short covering and bull support and
gave the cotton market a strong under
tone today. It waa the contention of
the bulls that the Crop has lost Its good
start, but opposing the damage reports
was the more favorable weather In the
belt yesterday, and between the two
factors the trade was badly mixed.
Speculation waa on a somewhat broad
er scale. Tenders seemed to be llndlng
no weak short Interest during the early
session, as there was only ono sale of
May during the first few minutes at
9.81, and the Inference was that the
large bulls were taking up these no
tices as they had those of last Friday.
• The near months were steadied by this,
and following the call advanced a point
or two, while the new crop hung back,
owing to better weather and reassuring
reports concerning the effect of the re
cent cold weather on the crop of the
southwest. Private cables from Liver
pool reported, heavy continental selling
on more favorable weather. Liverpool
was 2 1-203 points lower at the hour
of the local opening, when due to come
8 to 4 points lower. Spot cotton was
1 point lower on spies of 8,000.
At the close the tone was steady,
not 3 to 9 points higher than Satur
day’s finals.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
New Orleans, April 29.—Liverpool wsa fils
appolntlngly weak thla morning. Futures
declined aa much as 7 points. Spot nrlces
1 lower; sales, 8,090. Realising of profits by
longa probably accounts for the decline. Our
Liverpool correspondent* wire that the
market I* nearly depleted of good graded,
and that the demand now runs on lower
promised. Scattered ahowers are forecasted
for the eastern half of the belt and colder
weather for Tuesday in the central atntes.
Locnlh heavy rains oceurerd over Sunday
In Loulaliiun. Arkansas, Mississippi, Ala
bams and Georgia. Temperatures were aeu
snnable. Correspondence from the Interior
Is unfavorable except from western Loulsl-
nnn and Texaa. where complaints trie few.
Loss of time, scarcity ot good seed,. bad,
cold condition of the ground for the second,
und In some cases third replanting rendered
necessary are generally spoken of in letters
to hand from the central and eastern belt.
The market Is very sensitive to bad croj
news, as could lie seen today. The spot
market la steady. No uew features. Little
desirable cotton here to do business on.
Sentiment here Is bullish on. the uew crop
outlook.

tors. The Journal of Commerce reports, so

New York. April 29. —J. 8. Bacbe & Co.
The Loudon market wns strong above par
ity. There are large arrivals of gold from
Houth Africa, arid Paris will likely get the
gold. This should have good effect on all
markets.
Union Pacific held an 8-point ndvam.~ —
a week, and good Judges still predict much
higher prices for the stock.
The crop reports will keep the market
backward on any further damage reports,
but many think a short crop would be a
blessing Instead of n calamity. The market
should nold Its advance, ana In the bettor
class Qf stocks higher prices are Inevitable.
There la a good tip out to buy Reading.
Content and Wrenn bought Union Pacific.
Town Topics: We look for a more active
stock market this week, with au advancing
tendency, especially lu the railroad stocks
of the- better class.
Tomorrow's Steel directors’ meeting
should develop a fairly favorable quarterly
report, but the dividend actlou Is not likely
to be much of a market Influence.
Considerations growing out'of Saturday's
unexpectedly favorable bank statement
should be helpful, and better reports from
the crop regions would be all the additional
Influence needed to bring about a good
buying movement.
There is no evidence of any change In
the bullish attitude of the important inside
Interests, and we believe materially higher
prices will be quoted for the leading la
sues within the next two weeks.
We feel bullish on the Hnrrtman and 11111
stocks. 8t Paul. Atchison. Louisville and
Nashville. Rendlug, Delaware aud Hudson

Both cotton and wheat should do better,
but on any further ndvance there will be
considerable profit-taking, and we would
