His experience makes him tlie most reliable market editor in the South If not, in tho entire country. / ACREAGE REPORTS WERE NUMEROUS but generally without EFFECT ON MARKET. Fluctuations in Cotton Narrow, But Were Slightly Higher Than Previous Close. The market! for cotton future* In all , speculative centers have been very dull 1 during the morning trading, operators apparently believing that yesterday's rxcltement and decided elump was un called for, nnd today more, caution Is being exercised. With the exception of English ca blet, news today was as bearish as on Thursday. May option, however, was out of tin way, consequently the lead ing bull teemed to be taking a much needed rest. It Is expected that he will take up the b'-ar side shortly to change his luck. Several acreage and condition ports ware Issued today, all of which were bearish, except thst of the Southern Cotton Growers' Association. It gives the Increase In acreage at 1.1 per cent, or 37,834,718 acres, against last year. The New York Financial Chronicle estimates the acreage at 31.SS7.242, an Increase of 9.84 per cent. The New York Commercial makes the Increase «.* per cent and condition ®"iV Is rumored Miss Giles Will give tho acreage Increase at 7 to t per cent. All this bearish "dope" was without effect on the market during the morn- trading, which was dull, with duc at Ions narrow, though steady In tone and prices a few points above yester day's closing dgures. In sight for the week Is estimated at 105,000 to 115,000 bales, against 141,924 last year and 44,000 in 1904. The weather continues favorable over the belt. In the afternoon the market was dull, but prices had lost their steadiness, and a declining tendency developed, the list selling below yesterday's low point. By Private Leased Wire. New York, June 1.—The cotton market had another active and Irreg ular opening. First prices were r jiolnts higher to 2 polnte lower. Sev. eral private crop report* tended to confuee sentiment. The level of prices was sustained a point or so above lost night's close throughout the early deal ings, with July showing an advance of 3 points on some heavy buying by a prominent house.

IN STOCK MARKE MIDSUMMER DULLNESS WAS THE MAIN FEATURE. Brokers Said That tho Market A1 together Was a Case of "Dog Eat Dog." New York, June 1.—A dull market, with a rising Inclination in aome qunr ters and uncertainty In ' others, was merely repeating today what had grown familiar on the previous days of the week. With a higher range of London Quotations, prices started somewhat higher, A renewal of tho pressure against Pennsylvania stock broke the price another 1-2 point and caused a slow reaction in the other lefders. But the scarcity of real offer ings for sale discouraged much activity on the bear side, and tho rest of the morning was given over to desultory operations for th, rim I, same of ths minor specialties, and la fma SV twa other Issues of moro Importance. Of the specialty movements those of Colo rado Fuel, pressed Car and Car Foun dry were the most conspicuous. Louis vllle and Nashville was the strongest of the railway group In a continuation of reports of an Increased dividend and the other Southern shares were sympathetically strong. Illinois C n- tral and St. Paul were well maintained, but the coal and steel shares were heavy. In the stock market strength chnrac terlxed the opening. Louisville and Nashville up 7-8; Tennessee Coal and Iron up 1-2; Colorado Fuel 11-4; Penn sylvania held an Initial gain of 1-3, Reading was somewhat unsteady. Else where the Improvement extended to a •mall fraction. Business was on a moderate scale, and after the opening trading prices were Inclined to recede •lightly.
