Movement of Cotton.

The cotton movement continues large
for the season, although the price has
advanced a sixteenth in spite of favor
able crop prospects. The manufacture
ing demand abroad is good and con-
trolls Liverpool, and at this late season
America let's Liverpool make prices.
Here the manufacturing demand is n
little better, though with decline OF
prices of bleached shirtings, but the
mills have large stocks of materials.
There is also a stronger market for
wool abroad which, with western eX-
element, makes quotations of 100 quail
tiles by Coats Bros. of l cent higher
than June 1, but there is scarcely any
buying by manufacturers, who are in
doubt about the coming season, and
have few new orders, except in army
lines The break in the price of six
teen-ounce clay worsted to $1.20 has
somewhat discouraged what promised
10 be a healthy market. Sales of wool
were made extremely narrow by the
wide differences between excited west
ern holders and manufacturers who
have an uncertain coming season to
face.

HAS INSPIRED TRADE.
Passing of the War Tax Bill by
Congress.

Week One of Excitement.
New York, June 2O.-R. G. Dun 4
Co.'S weekly review OF trade says; The
passing OF the war tax bill, the offer
ing OF bonds, and the collapse OF Letter
and cash wheat have made the week
somewhat exciting In spite of some
features, which cannot be justified, the
tax bill was approved as probably the
best that could be obtained from con-
gress this year, and gave assurance OF
needed revenue for the emergency. It's
bond provision has already called out
offers for more than three times the
amount desired, and il probably VIII
prove the most successful lean ever IN
vited by the United States. a great
victory in the field could hardly be
more important, especially in its inilu-
ence on foreign opinion.
Excess of Exports Over Imports.
Not less significant was the excess OF
exports over imports in May by $751;
9S0,359, making a merchandise balance
in favor of the United States of SOIL
,O37 in eleven months Of this fiscal
year while net imports of gold were
$l02 026, $3.50, though in no previous fiscal
year have the net imports of gold eX-
ceeded S97, 1861 27, in 1892. Not less inn
portant is the official showing that this
nation has supplied TO others more than
100, 900, 900 bushels wheat and 2O4OOO,OOO
bushels corn in eleven and ahalf months
without checking receipts from farms,
and seen wheat fall 90 cents in a week
because a crop is promised greater than
the last by 100000 coo bushels. This de-
cline would have come sooner had not
Mr. Letter looked for larger gains, but
the benefit TO this country by the av-
erage advance OF nearly 25 cents for
the crop year on wheat exported has
been about $4S,OOO,OOO, and to produce
ers much greater. In corn, on the other
hand, the cash price has declined only
/ cent, and the demand continues extra
ordinary, western receipts amounting
to 4,S79 242 bushels, against 1913, 1874 last
year, and exports amounting to 3,662,-
600 bushels, against 1921 ,44S last year.

That New Light in Railroad Law.

The State journal, reproducing
railroad article from the Chicago
Record, heads 1t "a New Light"
Commenting on the late decision in
the Nebraska case, the Record quotes
the following paragraph from the
opinion Of the court;
IF we do not misapprehend Coun-
sci, their argument leads to the con-
clusion that the state of Nebraska
could legally require local freight
business to be conducted even at an
actual loss, If the company earned on
its interstate business enough to give
it Just compensation in respect of its
entire line and all it's business, inter-
state and domestic. We cannot con.
cur In this view. In our judgment, it
must be held that the reasonableness
or unreasonsbleness of rates prescrib-
ed by a state for the transportation of
persons and property wholly within
it's limits must be determined without
reference TO the inter state business
done by the carrier, or the profits de
rived from it. The state can not jus
tify unreasonably low rates for do
mestic transportation, considered
along, upon the ground that the car
rler is earning large profits on it's in
ter state business, over which, so far
as rates are concerned, the state has
no control. Nor can the carrier JUS
tlfy unraasonably high rates on do
nestle business upon the ground that
1t will be able only in that way to
meet losses on it's inter state business
So far as rates OF transportation are
concerned, domestic business should
not he made to bear the losses on
domestic business, nor the latter the
losses on domestic business. II is
only rates for the transportation, OF
persons and property between points
within the state that the state can
prescribe rates not to be exceeded by
the carrier, 1t must do so with refer
ence exclusively to what is just and
reasonable, as between the carrier
and the public, in respect of dOmes-
tic business"
That may oe a new light, but Is the
State Journal prepared to say that it
IS not correct statement Of law7 Is
it not true that our national constltu-
ton has conferred on congress exclu-
sive jurisdiction Of inter state COM
msrce; are not all the railroads in
Kansas engaged in interstate COM
MIRO? Are they not, therefore, sub
jsct oqly to congressional superVIs-
ion? and does not that fact preclude
the state from interfering in any way
with commerce among the several
states even to the extent Of consider
ing its net revenues in determining
reasonable compensation on state
traffic?
Indeed, 1t is not outside the range
Of possibilities that some day the in
ter-stste railway companies may COM
blne aud try the states right to inter-
fere in any way with the business Of
the roads, even as to purely losal
traffic, more especially tuOh roads ss
were aided by the government IN the
way of lands granted to them.
The state, upquestionably, may build
IFS own roads and manage them in isa
