The stock thus purchased was hast ily pitched over this morning and tnere was the usual poor market in u Pan-Americans when a rush of selling came into them. On the other hand the street reasoned, that if ttre Mexican companies are forced to pay tn,i havy extra tax, thev will be at a disadvantage with oil concerns elsewhere. 1 he conclusion was that the news f bullish for the American oils and this was reflected In active buy ing of Pacific Oil and a better market for most of the other groups. The resuiar aiviaend was declared on Cal iu na Petroleum preferred but while me ooara is said to favor the begin us or Dividends on the common it is hardly thought likely that any thing will be done at the meeting mucuuicj jor tomorrow.

New York. June 9. The action of to day's cotton market suggested that trad ers were uncertain whether to buy on the probability that British labor troubles would soon be settled, or to sell on the improvement in the crop. The latter fea ture mignt have had more weight had it not been for the crops very poor start, and the fact that an improvement dur ing June is by no means unusual and is frequently followed by severe edterior- atlon during July and A ugust. A rumor that the British coal strike had already been setlled pending official confirmation on the basis of wages 20 per cent higher than the pre-war scale v.as not confirmed or generally credited. It had a tendency to check selling on the weather news and the weakness of foreien exchansre. however, and after opening steady at an advance of five points on July, but generally zto 12 points lower fluctuations were compar atively narrow and irregular. There appeared to be considerable July for sale on the basis of 12.70 and the mar ket met considerable southern selling on bulees to 13.40 or above for October. The price ot 12.70 ror juiy ana it.iv ior October in the market here compares wun middlink Quotations of 11.37 at NorioiK 11 cents at Augusta and down to lo.ou at. Monta:omerv. In such southwestern markets as Dallas middline closed last night at 10.85. The comparisons would succest shiDments of cotton here for de llverv. and a little cotton is arriving from day to day. 1 esteraay, ior in stance, the local bureau inspected 51 J bales and it is only the late month pre miums perhaps, which prevents this iriD ble of catton from the sjuth for break ing the price of July contracts. New Orleans reported that rumors were circulating there late yesterday to the effect that all avialable ocean room had been booked for shipment trom uai veston durine June and July to Ger many and '.hat Savannah was inquiring for rcom to Germany also. ineso te ports were too indefinite to mean any strong impression, uui mej yiuuauij helped check speculative selling. New York. June 9. Stocks of every description were severely depressed at the. opening of today's session. The further collapse of foreien ex change which forced London quotations under $3.70 was one 01 tne disturbing factors. Proposed heavy export tax on Mexican oils was another unfavorable development. Within the flrjt few minutes or tne active trading Mexican Petroleum registered a decline of 4 pionts and Pan-American Petroleum ost 6 points. Other oils as well as iteels. enuiomenta. motors, and ene- cialtles were materially lower. United States Steel fell nearly one point to it 1-4. a new low quotation ior the year. Passing of the dividend on Interna tional Agricultural preferred, was fol lowed by a decline of 5 1-4 points. Mex ican Petroleum extended its loss to 7 4 points and a wide variety of steels, equipments, coppers and miscelhvieous shares added l "to 2 points to their losses of the morning. Th- closing was heavy, sales approxi mately S00.000 shares. NEW VOltK STOCK LIST. Last Sale.
