Fight for the Standard Bale.

Georgetown, Tex, July 25.-
The fight for the standard bale
of cotton is on in this county.
The cotton buyers and ner-
chants of this place have agreed
that in buying cotton they will
discriminate in favor of the "a
x54-inch standard bale of cotton
and have issued circulars to
that effect. This is a question
that affects the interests of all
farmers, and they should look
into the matter carefully and
act according to their best
judgment in demanding of the
ginners a standard 24x54- inch
bale.

NEW YORK, April 20.-The New York
stock market offered a firm resistance all
day to the depression which was re1iected
upon it from every other exchange IN the
world its declines at no time reachlng
more than a fraction over point Tor act
i've stocks. In the final hour, after trading
on the foreign bourses had peen suSpeiueu pen ne
for the day. a lively movement TO puy de-
veloped on the New York exchange, which
wiped out practically all the earlier losses
and lifted the level of prices Sharply ABOVE
that Of last night The na. of VA
rumor that the period allowed Spain for
a reply to the ultimatum had been extent
ed to Monday with chance OF settiement
being effected before that time. There was
some evidence of manipulation for the pur-
pose of making last prices SNOW strIkhins h
gains. For instance, Burlington soid at
90A and on the last sale jumped TO 9iz2
that New York was less affected by the
crisis than any other financial center. At
no time were prices depressed TO the Lon
don parity. AS conseque4fae sreae t,ona1 WAS
stocks, New York prices showing fair
profit over London quotations. Whatever
depression there was on the new YORK
exchange seemed to be due to sympathy
with the depression in foreign markets
New York absorbed the offerings Of Its
own securities for foreign account at prices
above those prevailing abroad, and there
was no heavy liquidation for local account
1t Is to be observed that American securi-
ties have held fairly steady, as compared
with the marked weakness of Spanish Sc
curities. 1t is also to be observed that
weakness in foreign markets is due in part
to the dearness of money, and this. In turn
lis caused by the pressure for gold to re-
inforce the American money market. The
United States Is still heavy creditor Of
the world, and the continued withdrawing
of these credits. while serving to fortlfy
the financial fabric at home, is a feature
in the foreign markets Doubtless part
of the selling in New York for foreign ac-
count is due to an effort to equalize ex-
change conditions. That these offerings
should be so well absorbed is demonstra-
ton of the sound financial conditions ex-
isting in this country Evidence to the
same effect is given in the case of call
money, which loaned today at Q per cent,
although the time money continues to be
firmly held at 6 per cent. 1t is still fur
ther significant Of the same condition tina t
the same stringency Of money abroad
should have resulted in declines in the
British and French government bonds,
while United States As of 1925 showed a
gain today of IA per cent for the registered
and ~ per cent for the coupons
The bond market was slightly more act
i've, and after early weakness showed some
recovery. Total sales, s1025. 900. United

Prices and Prospects Of the Trade in
Cereals

CHICAGO, April 20.-The Liverpool mar
ket surprised the trade at the start today
by showing an advance OF nearly &c per
bushel in wheat. The war news from
Washington gave shorts further scare,
and first trades in July here were made
at SS1a6DSS7s. an advance of 1dsM1lac. Sep
tember was also remarkably strong. Prof-
1t taking caused a brief reaction, during
which July touched SS3s, but the market
again stiffened and rose steadily to $685.
Heavy selling against calls stopped the ad-
vance, and the market quieted down. The
announcement of the actual signing OF the
Cuban resolution did not affect the course
of prices, quotations remaining about sta
tionary for some time. The strength of the
English markets continued to be the chief
influence. Letter reported free acceptance
of cable offers. One cargo was sold to
London at $1.26 per bushel, an advance Of
Sc over Yesterdays prices. Domestic crop
news of a measuring nature and heavy re-
ceipts had little affect. July continued to
&c above where it closed the day before.
A good deal of long wheat was sold be-
tween that and SO. which rather overloaded
the capacity of the market, and just then
New York fired a bomb into the pit in the
shape of dispatch giving a rumor current
there to the effect that the Rothschilds
had refused to advance more money to
Spain, and consequently Spain would be
unable to go to war. The market had a
sudden collapse of 1c a bushel on that.
running don in ten minutes from S9A to
to SSH, and then, after short light around
the later figure, it had flesh tumble to
S7iAGIS79s, and was bringing S75s at the
close. May sold between 1.1O and Ill. clos
ing at 1.10l1.
Corn was helped by export sales of over
900 900 bushels. Shorts bought freely, but
the collapse in wheat depressed corn and
most of the advance was lost. July closed
shade higher than yesterday.
Oats were firm early on the advance
abroad and in sympathy with wheat. The
advance was lost near the close. July
closed nc lower.
Provisions were strong throughout on
war prospects. The trade was largely pro-
fessional. though some outside buying was
buyers. and packers gave tp their attempt
to check the rise. July pork closed with a
net gain of 62R. July lard and ribs gained
12h each.

when a man is In earnest and knows
what he Is about. his work is half done"

''Wher q man is In earnest and knows
what he Is about. his work is half DONE"
This Is the way that the financial condi-
tion and prospects of Spain are regarded
In New York. in the event of war Henry
Clews, in his circular of the 10th inst,
says:
The point raised that Spain Is bankrupt
and Is in consequence weak foe, Is not
well taken. In the event Of Span's going
TO war with this country, 1t will certainly
be impossible for her to raise money by the
sale of her bonds, as they have already
gone down to 421a, and in the event of hos
tilities. they will go down to probably 25
or less. She will therefore naturally
abandon ambition to keep up her national
credit, and hence interest on her out
btanding obligations will be sure to be de-
faulted on. This amounts to about $780,
100000 year which she will have for war
purposes. Contributions and forced reve-
nue. from the people will be one of the pro-
cesses resorted to to carry on the war.
Spain will be in position similar to that
Of bankrupt railroad, which makes a
bad foe for solvent competitor. A rail-
road In the hands of receiver pays out
nothing except to keep the road in repair,
and can make forced loans besides through
receivers certificates authorized by court.
which become a first claim against the
road, to provide for pay rolls and expenses
to keep the road in fighting condition-os-
tensibly to be in a safe condition to pre-
vent sacrifice of life. A weak railroad
can, therefore, cut rates so low as to in
tiict serious injury to strong competitor
II 1t continues 'the fight long enough.
While Spanish As at present price (421a)
yield 9la per cent interest, United States
Is (at 12D yield only 27s per cent interest,
and Notwithstanding the wide difference
h the market price of the two securities,
United States bonds are infinitely the
cheapest and most desirable for an invest
ment, because the principal and interest
are absolutely secure under any circum-
stances. whereas, in the event of war;
Spanish bonds will certainly be made alb
solutely insecure. II not worthless.

Sir Walter Scott's Watch

Sir Walter Scott's gold watch and a lock
of his hair were recently sold ln Lon
don auction room. The time-keeper is OF
old English make, in plain gold case. Sir
Walter gave it to his valet, John Baxter
Nicholson, whose letter testifying to the
fact was put up with the article. Some
one offered s2 2s.. but the auctioneer said
he was astonished to hear such bid for
a well authenticated memorial of the
wizard Of the north. What, he asked, was
the good of being a great man, If his
watch only brought such a paltry sum
The hint was not without effect, and 25
was at once offered, the final price being
rs guineas.
