In the Cotton Market fly Thomson & McKinnon NEW YORK. April 27.—After today, May will not boos general speculative interest, and I think the market will benefit .thereby Within ten days, when May trading will close. July will practically be the spot month, and* the arbitrage situation is such that I expect it to showgreat strength. Th public and the trade are bearish. The other side is naturally the one to take. In the Sugar Market (By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. April 27.—The nineteen centrals which have so far finished their grinding operations have ha/1 a total output. of 1,340.400 tons as compared with an estimate of 1.530.000 tons. The fact that output has fallen considerably below expectations and the likelihood of an early acceptance of the Cuban relief measures are a favorable influence on futures. Both raw and refined priees Monday were Inclined upward. The distant positions. 1 think, will work gradually higher. CORNERSTONE IS LAID Itishop Presides at Ceremony for Catholic Nurses Home.
