those who tender cotton can do so only

The steadiness of the Kngllsh market
largely responsible for the steadiness

flew In the western belt, with the ex
, ceptlon of some scattered showers In
eastern Texas, Louisiana and parts of
Arkansas, Mather generous nnd bene

The weekly weather report laid stress

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
The Sldrnlae MoTmiit.
The. stock market yesterday presented
what the traders call the ildewlso move
ment, l'rlces lluctuatetl back and forth
throughout the session over the same
ground covered on Monday without de
veloping a decided trend In cither direc
tion. The sole Impulse behind the fluctu
ations seemed to be derived from the
operations of the professionals. Tho
traders sold at the opening nnd then
turned around when stock fulled to come
In on tho lower prices. Tho revcrset
happened when the market moved up to
the near to top prices of Monday nnd
then wavered. Heading was the only ac
tive slock to make a new high for the
movement. While the advance In tho
other speculative favorites lias received
an obvious check In the past few days
Heading has risen steadily. As a mar
ket lender Heading Is nn uncertain quan
tity. Thero are occasions when move
ments In Heading seem to have on Ir
resistible Influence over the rest of the
market. At other, times they are
entirely unconvincing and the traders talk
nbout the leading strings being plainly
visible.

Klxtr Per Cent. Profit.
Wabash common, with tho very best
reasons In the world. Is tho lowest priced
stock on the list. Yesterday 200 shares
sold at 1, the flist time the stock had been
dealt In ednce Thursday, when It sold as low
ru. tt. Wabash common has, therefore, had
a huge rise when figured on the percent
age basis. If it were not necessary to pay
commissions a big profit could have been
mado on this fluctuation. In other words,
100 shares of Wabash common might
have been bought for 162.60 on Thursday
last and sold yesterday for 1100. The dif
ference, I37.C0, would represent about CO
per cent, of the money Imolvrd In the
trade.

Missouri 1'aclflc stock sold off follow
Ing the adjournment of the special meet
ing of the directors only a few minutes
after It had been called. But tho stock
held Its rise well and closed at an nd
vanco on the day. The firmness of the
stock la Interesting tn the light of a re
port of the return on Monday of a big
block of the stock borrowed by a firm
which haa been credited with extensive
liquidation In the past few months. With
regard to the tremendous turnover of
Missouri Pacific below 20 It Is Interesting
to note that It Is freely admitted on every
hand that there are great possibilities In
tho stock, greater probably than In any
other Issue selling at the price. Bullish
sentiment on the stock, however. Is based
on one condition, and that Is that tho right
people shall be In control of the property.
Circumstantial reports of the Goulds sell
ing out at last have been heard altogether
too often In the past to Induce enthusiasm
now. Most speculators have come to the
state of mind whero they will decline to
believe until convinced that papers have
been signed, sealed and delivered. Hut
by the tlmo the proMpect has become 11
certainty. If It ever does, tho price of tho I repori,, of rain

A resumption of buying by die May
short established wheat prices at slightly
higher levels In tho early tradlne yester

turned easier under rather heavy offer

Crop news was of a very favorable char
acter, barring reports of snow In parts
of the Canadian Northwest. Foreign
markets wero generally higher. Liver

In connection with the Paris failure an
nounced on Monday. It is suld that the
selling on this account has been heavier
than seems to be realized generally and
that It Is centred largely on tho mix

listed on the Ficnch Bourse. An Inter
esting point about the Paris firm of Ve

old Hamburg banking house founded no
