WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
Heavy IJeclihe In Cotton Stocks
Dull mill Irresolar Provisions
Easy.
It has been an exciting week in the cot
ton market, and those who shut their
eyes to everything but the theoretical
strength arising from the anomalous sta
tistical position, have paid dearly for re
fusing to take into account the inherent
weaknesses cf the si uaticn as repeatedly
pointed out in this review during the past
month or two. The market was very weak
frem the start, August declining 50 points
bv Wednesday. On Thursday the leading
New York bull house had to suspend; ap
parently August holdings had already
been largely liquidated, for while May
fell 78 points the break In August that
day was only about 20 points. Subse
quently there was a moderate reaction,
and at the close May was 61 points lower
at S.Blc; August 46 points lower at 8.53 c.
Fluctuations in the new crop months
were less violent, but the later tendency
was weaker, owing to more favorable
weather reports from the South. Octo
ber closed 21 points lower at 7.81 c.
Some of the more hopeful bulls now
think the market is in a more healthy
condition in consequence of the heavy
liquidation, which has taken place. It is,
however, not easy to see how an element
of strength can be infused by the elimi
nation of the main support. It must be
evident that prices had advanced to a
level where a reduction of consumption
was clearly In view, and therefore that
they must give way unless artificially
sustained by manipulation. *\n attempt to
do so, which for a long time seemed at
tended by a fair prospect of success, has
just disastrously failed, and the example
will very likely deter others from ven
turing upon a similar trial. Left to it
self, there seems nothing for the market
to do but to s nk more or less gradually
to a lower plane of values, as the promise
of a good crop becomes more definite and
assured. Of course it will be quite another
matter if the development of the crop
fails to give any such encouragement, but
still it seems advisable for these who will
have cotton to sell next fall, to avail of
upward fluctuations to realize present re
munerative prices
Stocks ruled dull all the week, the
principal activity being in sugar, tobacco
and the steel stocks. The first two closed
at some advance, but steel stocks were
lower under further repot ts of depression
in the iron trade. Railroads show com
paratively slight changes, and are most
ly lower. Despite easy money the feeling
is not one of very great confidence.
Wheat and corn showed very small
changes, closing rather easier on favor
able weather. Provisions ruled lower on
slack demand, although receipts of the
live material were moderate. At a little
further decline, provisions ought to prove
a profitable Investment.

BANKER CLEWS’ VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen From
Wall Street,
New York, May 26.—The stock market
shows good resisting qualities. Strong
efforts have been made to depress values,
but guceess has been limited. The chief
result was to enlarge the short interest
and create a buying power that was
otherwise wanting. At present neither
investors nor the outside public are tak
ing ar. active part in the market; but the
real holders of stocks make such a dis
play of confidence that the long expected
recessions In values do not materialize.
On the contrary, prices have been
prisingly sirong, considering the various
uncertainties and the changes to be faced
within the next two or three months.
The strongest bull factors at ihe mo
ment are continued large railroad earn
ings, easy money and ihe prospect of an
early end of the Transvaal war.
The termination of the war will cer
tainly have a stimulating effect by re
lease of the various forces which it has
checked. The relief will be first felt in
the money market, and easier money in
London will mean smaller gold ex|>orts
and easier rates here. The local outlook
for monetary conditions is favorable.
Trade and Industrial requirements are
likely to be less urgent than a year ago,
and Secretary Gage seems disposed to
take every legitimate opportunity of pre
venting the locklngup of funds In the
treasury until Congress stops the accumu
lation by reducing the war taxes, which
now burden and irritate the public. The
Secretary’s call for the redemption of
$25,000,000 2 per cent, bonds will bring a
corresponding amount of money out of the
treasury this fall when most needed for
crop-moving purposes. These bonds are
a renewed obligation of the government,
payable at the pleasure of the govern
ment. and the calling In of them now
to be paid off establishes the United States
government credit on a 2 per cent, basis,
which Is a record breaker of the world's
government credit, as such a financial
foal has never before been accomplished
by any nation.
