This Is sab! to be due to the fart that the small manufacturer U taking advantage of the present softness In prices, iui>I Is making every effort to fifi long felt and pressing wants. Knitters lutve been In the market for quite fair supplies, and It Is stated ou gqpd authority that they have succeeded In pot ting through orders for delivery up to the first of Juue at prices more 111 favor of tbe buyer.

The money market Is Im proving, Bank of England strength ened reserves and no uneasiness from French demands. Shorts covered freely at the close yesterday, and will probably continue to cover outstanding contracts today.

In such case we would buy Delaware and Hudson, Reading, Southern Pacific, Kansas City South ern, Union- Pacific, Canadian Pacific and all the Hill stocks. Cotton and wheat should be pur chased only on rather severe setbacks. New York Commercial: What are known as the granger roads will be compelled to suffer, so far as the prices of their stocks are concerned, from the crop damage stories that will be circu lated for some time to come. There can be nothing In the shape of authen tic Information aa to growing crops, so that the rumor-monger has things all his own way. Stories of .note Issues on the part of the railroads constantly are In the market, with no particular dates at tached, however. There are two sides to this particular question. Not only does the great majority of the roads need money for betterments. Improve ments and extensions, but a lot of re funding Is to be done this year, a fact thoroughly appreciated by the banking Interests which will have the matter In hand. The relative popularity of Union and Southern Pacific Is the subject of a good deal of discussion In trading cir cles. It Is maintained by many that the former Is more attractive to the Investor than the latter, as It pays double the dividend rate and, through ownership of the stock of the other. Is In the enjoyment of the fruits of Its prosperity. The more money the South ern Pacific makes the greater the In come of the Union Pacific. The con troversy Is becoming quite Interesting. Not long ago the English were most pronounced bulls on Canadian Pacific, while New York was more or less luke-warm. Now that the stock has been doing well In this market It Is somewhat surprising to note that Lon don is not In sympathy with the move ment. .The stock Is held abroad In the main, there being little of It In this country, while the Canadians have been letting It go of late. They do not think as much of It os they did. It Is said that It will, take many mil lions to put It on a par with the first- class roads of the United States In the matter of track and equipment.
