market opened steady at a decline of
1 to 10 points under moderate liquida-
tion. The decline was hardly as great
as warranted by the early cables owing
to more or less covering at the lower
level by sellers of the previous day
and the new crop ruled relatively
steady, for while the weather map
showed generally favorable conditions
over a large portion of the belt there
was talk of lower temperatures in the
west and forecasted showers for east-
ern states were not Indicated by the
map nor did the trade consider that
they were likely to prove more than
scattering sprinkles. Following the
call, however, the absence of bull sup-
port caused a slight further decline
with July selling down to 12.99b and
October to 10.70c, but it was evident
that the market had been sold quite
heavily on yesterday’s break and with
the triple holiday approaching shorts

Sanger and Ettelson’s Letter.
New York, May 86.- (By private
wire to Sanger & Ettelson.)-The
market was quieter today with fluctu-
ations less erratic and confined within
a narrower range. These conditions
reflect the existing uncertainty over
the present speculative positlon here
• nd the possible result of open con-
flict between the bear element and
spinning Interests against the bulls,
many traders being more Inclined to
even up speculative accounts pending
further developments In this connec-
tion than to Increase their Interest on
either side. Luidation has pro-
gressed on a fairly liberal scale the
last two days, and as the bear element
are Inclined to operate more cautiously
at this reduced level pending the rains
needed in the Atlantic and the gulf
states, there was decidedly less sell-
ing pressure in evidence from the
opening this morning. The weatneM
the market then displayed was mostly
In sympathy with the great weakness
and decline which Liverpool showed.
Prices here started 19 to 18 points
lower on old and 10 to 5 points on the
new crop. Good buying in June, July
and August by brokers who usually
act for McFadden and other leading
spot interests and some support from
New Orleans preventing any further
decline from that level and the market
subsequently rallied on covering of
shorts and some scattered rebuving.
Weather condition* continue gener-
ally favorable in all sections except
the Atlantic and gulf states, where
rain is needed. The abence of rain
today in that section held the bear in
check and it was the most potent fac-
tlr in stimulating the moderate ad-
vance in the next crop options. The af-
ternoon trading was on a very limited
scale with the market closing quiet.
Everybody appears to be imbued with
the holiday spirit and waiting for the
government report.
F'
¥
Quotations reduced 18 cents.
Futures opened quiet at a decline of
from 2 to 7 poits. Liverpool and
New York were disappointing, both
being lower. Offerings were free soon
after the opening and prices were
driven down. The weather map again
Was unfavorable In the eyes of bulls
and conservative traders. No rain fell
in those districts where rain is badly
needed in spite of the confident pre-
dictions made yesterday. The bears
were still selling winter months, how-
ever, and prices were weighed down by
the selling. It is said that exporters
and spinners have been buying the
Winter mnths heavily of late and that
any sharp upturn would find offerings
In any position scarce. In the trading
July lost 12 points at 12.12c and re-

New York, May 26.—Brokers put in
a few orders for stocks early today and
then went off to the Brooklyn handi-
cap, leaving the market to drift list-
lessly to its own devices. No serious
comment can be offered on such a
market beyond its negative signifi-
cance. There was no trading or move-
ment of prices to indicate that any
one had any sentiment on values or
the outlook for values. But it was
a fair inference that very profound and
universal uncertainty is felt over the
future to cause such a total absten-
tion from operations in securities as
now witnessed in the market. The
late sagging tendency of the market
left the day's changes trivial and ir-
regular.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par
value, »l,205,090.
covered to 13.93c. October lost 7
points at 10.46c and recovered to 10.55c.
The market closed steady. May lost
net 7 points, June 14 pointe. July 11
points ahd August gained 1 point,
while the new crop months were un-
changed to 8 points up.
The March of Progress.
Conditions have changed in Texas
more rapidly and perhaps more prog-
ress baa been made than in any coun-
try on the globe. Thirty years ago ice
in Texas cost the consumer 10 cents
per pound and could only be obtained
in limited quantities and in the larger
towns. Such a thing as a brewery at
that time in Texas had not been
thought of except, perhaps, on a vefy
small scale.
Today the San Antonio Brewing as-
sociation is chipping all over the coun-
try earload after carload every day of
beer that hat been pronounced by emi-
nent authority to be pure and whole-
Mme. Dr. Arnot Gray, in tho United
States health reports, says of the prod-
uct of thia famous brewery: "’Texae
Pride' and 'XXX Pearl' yield the great-
est tonic Btrength, so much desired to
aslat digestion." These are two of tho
leading brands that are favorites all
ever Texas and are fast supplanting
other brands made outside the state.
