New York, May 3.—The early stock
market to-day showed some disposition
to continue the downward movement
which was in force yesterday. The
check to the decline had the apparance
of a contest waged between opposing
factors in the market and the upward
movement was discontinued as soon as
the selling was checked.
The operators for a decline seemed
to center their selling on United States
Steel preferred, while the supporters of
the market rallied their efforts upon
Vnion Pacific. Neither movement was
explained by any news of the day and,
so far as regarded those two stocks,
seemed to be prompted wholly by the
purpose to influence the general
market. The general movement was
extremely sluggish and narrow. The
resumption of trading in London after
the holiday with no evidence of weak
ness by reason of the military events
in Asia was a reassuring factor and
there was some buying here from
London account.
Movement Slng'glih.

was a weight upon the whole market.
The showing had a strong reflect effect
upon United States Steel preferred
owing to the large part played by steel
tonnage Inf the traffic of that system.
Pennsylvania stock itself was little
affected.
The denials of yesterday’s rumors of
intended proceedings against the
anthracite combination relieved the
coalers from some pressure and helped
to the recovery. The early market was
in consequence of these conflicting
factors, very mixed and irregular and
rather more active than the recent
average.
Call Money Firm.
Call money showed a firmer tone
early for the first time in many days
and the minimum rate was 114
per cent with loans made above that.
This was attributed to the growing in
fluence of the gold exports and to the
exigencies of the bidders for the $37,
000,000 New York city bond issue.
After the bids were announced call
money broke to one half of one per
cent The time money market was not
affected.
The market closed dull and irregular
and showed small net changes.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales par

BAD WEATHER FOR CROPS IN GEORGIA
Cotton Slow and Replanting Necessary All Over
the State.
Atlant'a, May 3.—Cotton in Georgia is
having a hard time getting a start.
The dry and cold weather is unfavor
able and there is an indication that re
planting will be necess'ary in many
parts of the state. The other crops,
except fruit, are backward. Section Di
rector J. B. Marbury, in his report of
weather and crop conditions through
out the state for the week ending May
2, issued to-day, says:
"The week has been an unfavorable
one for crops, the prevailing drought
and unseasonably low temperature be
ing very detrimental to growth as well
as to germination of late planted fields.
The precipitation for the week w*as
very light—practically none occurred in
numerous middle and southern sec
tions. Cotton planting is nearing com
pletion in the north: germination poor;
much replanting indicated; replanting
is active elsewhere with unsatisfactory
results; seed scarce. Stands of e>arly
planted cotton are generally poor;
many plants are dying; chopping con
tinues in the south. Corn is germina
ting slowly In the north and growing
slowly elsewhere; plants are yellow.
Melons are late and Inferior. Cats are
heading in the south, but need rain to
insure a good crop. The fruit outlook
continues excellent in the majority of
counties.”
The reports from fourteen counties
in the northern section of the state
showed dry, cold and windy weather,
with resultant damage to all crops, ex
cept wheat and oats. The reports from
