them. Prices during the middle of the
morning showed rallies of 3 or 4 points
from the lowest.
It was reported that while a good deal
of the cotton being taken up on contract
Is for the account of leading bull inter
ests, considerable of it is being taken by
southern spot dealers. The apparent de
mand for the local stock and the bullish
southern spot advices helped the market
during the forenoon and prices at one
time worked up to within 36 points of
last night's finals, yet the market still
seemed to be without any general sup
port. The lnto-sight for the week was a
shade smaller than estimated, exports
continued large and southern spot mar
kets officially reported early were un
changed to l-16c higher, but there was
no revival of general demand for futures
and the market during the early after
noon eased off to a net decline of some
912 points under realizing by early buy

New Orleans Futures.
Nw Orleans, Feb. 24. Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline of 9 to .12
points on poor cables which were said to
be due to the effect of the rate decision
of yesterday on the stock market. Re
ports that a large number of March
notices had been issued in New York also
had a bearish effect in the early trading.
After the call the market was quiet but
the feeling was better and offerings were
absorbed without putting prices lower.
The weather map Indicating continued
cold In the west was considered favorable,
since cold will conserve the recent rain
fall and It held the new crop months down.
At the end of the first half hour of trad
ing prices were 10 to 12 points under
yesterday's close.
The market was quiet throughout the
entire morning session. Neither bulls'nor
bears seeiaea disposed to increase their
commitments. Leading bulls bid once or
t vv ice- for moderate lots of the near
months but got little cotton. Outside
business was next to nothing owing to
the uncertainty over the Scott bill and
also to uncertainty over the new crop.
Professional traders advanced the opinion
that the new crop deliveries were sur
prisingly steady in consideration of the
present situation. Toward the end of the
morning prices slowly recovered on mod
erate buying of covers by shorts and at
noon the list was t to 8 points under yes

BAD BREAlT IN

By Associated Press.
New York, Feb. 24. Refusal of the In
terstate commerce commission to grant
high freight rates to the eastern and
western railroads was the signal for
heavy selling of securities at the opening
of to-day's market. Previous to the
opening there was extensive liquidation of
Americans in London, where prices ten
from 2 to 8 points. The principal features
of the opening were U. S. Steel, which
opened with block of 30,000 shares at a
loss of 4 1-4 points; Reading with 200
scares at 153 1-2, followed by 10.000 at
154. compared with 159 1-8 at last night's
close; Union Pacific 5,000 shares which
sold down 4 3-4 points; large blocks of
Northern Pacific at a loss of 4 1-2. Great
Northern, preferred, which was off 7 1-8,
Lehigh Vallev 6 3-4; Missouri Pacific 5 1-4,
Wabash, preferred, 4 1-4, Southern Pacific
4 8-4, Missouri Kansas and Texas 4 1-4,
St. Paul 4 1-2 and other declines ranging
from 2 to 3 points. The n-arket was
active with slight Improvement after the
earlier quotations.
Commission houses were hesvy sellers
in the market, the failure of customer-to
respond to calls for more margin com
pelling heavy liquidation of accounts.
After the opening realizing the market
began to reflect concerted support by
powerful interests and 'stocks were for.;ed
upward despite much irregularity and
feverlshness In the process. Fluctua
tions of -1-2 a point or more between
.transactions wera common. The top

Company. It is estimated that an av
erage of 75 prisoners a day have been
carried by this old craft which is now
obsolete.
