Now York, April 25. —No special fea
ture in today’s market. The unfavor
able cable reitorting :i decline of 4 points
caused an early decline hurt of only 4
p.uuts. It would have been more, but
<>uV*lecJine of yesterday afternoon partly
discounted the Liverpool decline. Some
unfavorable crqp lulvices gives us a
Hteady market all day, hut unfavorable
advices of the crop are not worth men
tioning. and our personal advices are to
contrary, our friends generally reporting
more favorable conditions. It may be
called a holiday murker, there being a
considerable disposition shown to even
up over Thursday’s holiday. The mar
ket will continue nervous, subject to
crop news, with a decided tendency to
sell lower, all (Upending upon the
weather.

New Orleans, Ln.. April 25. —June sold
here today at 7 29, a decline of 31
points since Friday hist, and just as the
advance from 7 26, at which price June
contracts sold on the 17th in.-t.. the 1
bulls are responsible for the tlissliire as,
they realizd heavily. It is astonishing'
how lifeless the Liverpool spot market
is, and that no cotton consuming coun
try of the pretensions of Great Britain ’
could continue taking so little American ;
cotton unless the trade conditions wort
very much worse than private or pub- .
lie reports have indicated. There seems
no other way of explaining the moderate
buying of spinners unless it be that their'
stocks have been very-large. The warm
weather of yesterday and today seeais
to have put a new phase upon the situ
tainly start the market upwards. We
are disposed to buy the new crop months
on ail easy periods, basing our opinion
upon a disbelief in an 8,000,000 crop an
other season. In tht mean time we are
at the mercy, as we have been the whole
season, of Liverpool, and we shall im
prove or decline according to the amount
of spot takings rjrerd. There seems to
a better feeling in New York financially.

THE SUN’S REVIEW.
New York, April 25.—Dullness and
depression in Liverpool and an impres
sion that there is plenty of time to repair
any damage done to the cotton crop in
tjlie South as well ns more or less long
liquidation by New York and out of town
operators caused a decline in nearly all
transactions, but later on a firmer tone
set in. partly owing to the government
prediction of cold weather a.nd buying
by shorts. who found some difficulty >u
covering cotton. The new crop months
were especially firm in rhe lute business.
The not changes for the day were slight,
the final outcome IsJng n decline of
only 1 to 2 points, closing steady. Salos
wore 145.200 bales. Liverpool dtr
•lined 5 to 6 points, closing quiet and
steady with spot sales of 5.000 bales.
New Orleans declined 9 points and re
gained most of this. In Manchester
yarns were weak turn! cHotliis quiet. Re
ceipts at noris were 12.136 bales against
6 "61 tlic.ro this dnv last week and 17.-
■l6l last year. Total I has far this week

for midilling up'.a.nds with rales of 300
for export and 130 for spinning.. -Most

New York, April 25.—N0 definite news i
wiis reeeivml from Washington this
morning, but still there were so many
ruumrs of relief coming to the treasury
that the shorts decided to cover, ami the i
buving for this account must have been
25 000 to 30,000 shares. Europe bought i
bireelv and these two factors contrib
uted to today’s rise. The offer of Mr. ;
Carlisle, said to hare been made to the
banks was as follows: That the banks l
were to invest $50,000,000, for which 5
per cent, bonds wore to be sold on a 3
f„-r cent, basis of th" thn year ritiss. tire'
bonds io be deposited with a safe deposit
mmoanv, these bonds not to be put in
irirculation iu ten years, and the gov
crnmtnt. reserved tire right to redeem be
fore ten years. This plan was. of course,
rejected a- not feasible. It is yet an
oncii question whether this statement is
really true. We hardly think any bonds
will be issued for, some time to come, \
nor that tire New York bankers will help
out. the treasury. The advance to/lay
has pretty well squeezed out the short |
interest, and we think the market a j
sale again. Exchange is easier, ami it
is hard to say if any gold will be
shipped. Toledo and Ann Arbot again ■
declined today, and a number of ugly j
; remora were circulated again, uml <

Chicago. April 25.—The reported
(breaking of the European drought made
the wheat market weak here today.and
(al the start cables, were steady. I>ater
iin the day reports of a rain on the Gon
i inent of Europe mid Kansas, and the
report, of the failure of the London
Bank of Australia increased the dispo
sition to sell freely. Li the end. how
ever, the market closed comparatively
steady at a slight reaction from inside
[prices. The corn market ruled strsmg
for u.n hour, and then weakened. 1 lie
price weakened 1-29/3 8, or until it struck
the limit of the privileges where Inlying
I aginst the same checked the downward
tendency. Final figures showed 1-S@
1-4 cent loss for the day. There was
good business in onto in the way of
changing from May to June at. 14 differ
ence, and also buying Muy and selling
June and September.
A weaker feeling developed, and prices
reached 3-89/1-2 cent; a slight rally fol
lowed. and tin 1 close was quiet with a
net loss of 1-89/1-4. There were but
17.000 hogsat the yards, and they wore
quoteil higher. Occasionally there was a
bullish feeling among provision’ specu
lators, and anxiety among the shorts.
Altogether it was n decidedly a busy
day. though triuliag hardly could be
called excited. The closing prices were
nearly the highest of the Jay.
