UOTTOI Very Steady End With Net Ad vance of 1 to 10 Points Sat urday. Early Irregularity. New York.—The cotton market show ed continued firmness during today's trading. There was naturally more or less realizing foV over the week-end, but after some early irregularity, prices firmed up and the close was very steady at a net advance of one to ten points. Liverpool was slightly disappointing and first prices here were generally a point or two under yesterday's closing figures. Offerings however, were read ily taken around the opening level owing to a continued demand from foreign and local shorts In the summer months. Houses with Wall street and Western connections were again buyers of new crop 'deliveries but the near positions led the advance, selling about seven to ten points above Friday's finals. New irop positions worked two or three points net higher and the list closed within a point or two of the best. May contracts sold at 12.08 or r. 5 points above the lower level of last May. Generally clear weather was reported in the South this morning but conditions recently have been unsettled and the possibility of a late start with the new crop, combined with continued reports of unsatisfactory seed In some sections of the belt are considered responsible for investment buying of the new cja.p months. The stronger ruling of "Id crop deliveries is also supposed to have encouraged a more bullish view of early new crop positions around the prevail ing discounts. Decal spot people point tut that while there is still time to h-ing cotton from the Eastern belt for delivery on March contracts, very ittle cotton hns been received here from that source so far this season.

WEEK ]N COTTON New York.—The cotton market has had a sharp advance during the past wpek. with May contracts selling bark to the 12-cent level and some ',O points nbove the low records of Monday. Reports of a better spot demand and apprehensions of a later start than ex pected with the new crop owing to un settled weather conditions during the past month have probably accounted for some of the buying, but the ad\.. a t- has been most generally attributed to a scare of old crop shorts growing out of the failure of the March premium to at tract shipments of cotton here from the South, It has been a matter of gossip in the local market for some time past that a very large number of May and July con tracts had been sold here against pur chases in Liverpool. In the expectation that an accumulation of low grades In the local stock wxmld cause still wider differences. So far however, there have been comparatively few shipments of cotton here for March delivery and from these shipments there have been heavv rejections, particularly of cotton from the Southwest. The situation In this respect is supposed to have led to some modification in the views of strad dlers and at the end of the week. May contracts here were selling 120 points under Mny-June In the English market as compared wtth HO points last Mon day A private report was published early In the week indicating an Inten tion on the part of Southern planters to Increase the acreage tinder cotton nearly three per < ent but the figures attract ed comparatively little attention. Re ports from Alexandria forecast an In creased area under Egyptian cotton this season, and the continued full movement of the East Indian crop has been ac companied by increased estimates of the yield. Sp nners takings of Ameri can cn'ton have remaned full, howewver. whle predictions that the large percent age of poor cotton In this year's grotwh would leave an Inadequate supply of the more sp nnahle and tenderablo grades, have '.«een one of the features on the weeks advance.

New Orleans.—The cotton market was governed to a great extent today by favorable spot market developments. The spot demand was go<*d, although quiet. Nervousness was displayed by shorts and a disposition to cover over the week end was increased by the general belief in a bullish census bureau report on consumption Tuesday. Prices went to new high levels for the week, standing 3 to 7 points oveY Friday’s last figures at their highest, and closed at a net gain for the day of sixpoints to a net loss of one point.

WEEK IN FINANCE New York.—lrregular movements In the securities market this week gave a fair reflection of the uncertain state of speculative sentiment. Opinion as to the outlook was confused and operations in the stock market were limited chiefly to the day-to-day dealings of profes sional trailers. The Mexican situation, the freight rates question, the proposed anti-trust legislation at Washington and conflicting reports as to the business outlook all served to restrict specula tion operations pending settlement of these problems. The week's trade news gave little In dication of what was to be expected in the way of a general business revival, such as was predicted confidently at the beginning of the year. February statis tical returns from the steel and copper Industries were unexpectedly good. Re ports from the steel trade for the first half of March, however, Indicated that new business was not lnrge. Railroad earnings continued to fall off. The money market was little changed, although time loans showed a firmer tendency. LIVERPOOICOTTON Liverpool.—Cotton spot steady; Rood middling 7.44; middling 7.04; low mid dling 6.08.

For this the winter's varying weather condi tions, conservatism, born of recent years’ hand to-mouth buying, the late Krister season, and uncertainty as to fu ture business legislation, all are held varyingly responsible. The predominant feeiing Is that the opening of spring will act as a stimulus to trad" and industry*. “Weather conditions or the effects of recent meterological events still hulk large In the undeniably slow opening up of business. “There is a percetible gain in a va riety of lines of industry, which is tak ing up some surplus of labor. It is like wise becoming evident that some of the talk of unemployment outside of sea sonal lines was exaggerated. “For the week: Hank clearings. $3.- 241,215.000, a decrease of 1.4 per cent, from last year; failures. 271 against 289 last year; wheat exports 3 764,208 bush els against 2.731,547 last year.

STOCKS HOSE ON SATURDAY Late Re action, However, Cut Down Portion of the Advance in Wall Street. New York.—The rim* in stork* wan re sumed today. Moat of tho important Issues made fair gains. t»ut a reaction in final dealing* cut Into the advanced. The late reaction was influenced hy the decision of the federal courts order ing dissolution of the bituminous coal combine. Chesapeake and Ohio, winch waa strong in the early trading, lent ltd advance and gradually the other coal era. Including the anthracite group, gave way. The industrials were little af fected. It wae the opinion of trader* that the outstanding short Interest was unusualh large, and it wad assumed that cnvoHng wan the principal factor in forcing up quotations yesterday and today. The hank statement made a better showing than on any recent week. Dullness in the securities market and the lessened volume of new financing were reflected in a contraction in loans and the cash gain of nearly $7,000,0ut was twice the amount predicted. Trading In bonds was quiet with smaller variations among speculative is sued, which have been weak recently. Total sales 91.430,000. I’. S. 2s regis tered declined 1-H on call on the week.
