nEw CHURCH SALOON

BISHOP POTTER Of New York City
ID apparently believes in literal APP
phcation Of SoIomon's injunction to
Give strong drink unto him that is
ready TO perish, and wine unto those
that be Of heavy hearts. Let him drink
and forget his poverty, and remember
his misery no more" Rather COM
forting scripture, that. for those who
desire TO forget that wine is mock
CT; strong drink is raging: and whose
ever is deceived thereby is not wise"
There viii be a wide diversity Of
opinion as to the wisdom, the propriety,
OF the action of Bishop Potter in
sanctioning the opening of a saloon in
New York City This IS the greatest
social movement New York has ever
known" said the good bishop. 1T is
a movement every one of you must
take into account if you would save
the republic" Fancy saving the re-
public by selling people whiskey and
beer and wine.
But, we are told by the supporters
Of the Potter grog shop movement
only pure whiskey. pure wine and pure
beer viii be sold in the ecclesiastical
rummery- Wonder if it has occurred
to these undoubtedly conscientious
ohurchmen that it is just as easy to be-
come. intoxicated through indulgence in
pure whiskey, wine and beer as
through indulgence in inferior articles
Of that nature. 1t seems TO US that no
valid defense can be made of the
church saloon. Whenever d church
opens a saloon it declares that the
saloon is necessary to the human exis-
tence. BY just that much it adds to
the temptations that beset weak hui
mainly.
1t VIII not do to say that New York's
rev church saloon viii be conducted
in an orderly manner that it viii not
be kept open on Sunday, that men will
not be allowed to drink there enough
to become intoxicated. Those things
are all understood. The main fact is
that a new saloon is a new temptation
under any circumstances. A church
saloon is a stronger temptation than
an ordinary saloon because men viii
go TO a church saloon and drink who
would not go to an ordinary rum shop.
The faIure Of Bishop Potter's ere
form" experiment seems almost Ger

ONE EFFECT OF "sEDELIA."

4 BOY who was riding in a crowded
Il car that was part Of an elevated
train in New York City the other day
began whistling the once fetching
strains Of "Bedelia." With his lips
beautifully puckered and his lungs
working at their full capacity the boy
filed the car with the strains Of the
popular, the too popular song. Final
II Louis Watrin politely requested the
lad TO dry up his internal racket"
AIr. Watrin had evidently heard Be
della" ad Nauseum, Michael Kerns
heard 8Ir. Watrin tell the boy TO be
quiet. Mr. Kerns apparently had not
heard enough Of "Bedelia." so he sug-
gested that Mr.. Watrin attend to his
own business. The result is thus de-
scribed by a New York newspaper:
The men argued awhile and then
came to blows. They fought all over
the car. trampled over other people $
feet. knocked one mans hat out of
the window. and smashed a pane OF
glass. Policeman HALEY arrested the
two beIiigerents. but the motOrman

however. his soul was stirred with

kicked up. And whenever he has a
chance 10 whistle "Bedelia" in a
crowded car again he may be depended

Really. the public has some rights
which the lovers OF popular music
should be compelled TO respect. There
should be a law to prohibit the whist
ling, singing OF playing Of airs like
"Bedelia" after they have reached a
certain stage Of popularity. When we
have heard some songs, say 900 times,
We cannot be blamed for growing
a-weary Of them. But after all, popu-
lar songs wear themselves out within
a fairly reasonable length of time

known quotation.

or Comrades" or white Wings.

For our part we haven't heard one OF
them for years. Yet they were very
pretty songs and fully as popular in
their day as "Bedelia" is at the pre-
sent writing. The life OF the average
popular song doesn't cover period Of
more than three or four months at most
in any given community. They spring
up in the morning. a. it were, and IN
the evening they are cut down There

NEW YORK. June 2b.-The weeks cotton
market has been rather OF a professional ma
| ture and a scalping affair. whenever shorts
got uneasy prices werye quickly forced up
regardless OF any surrounding influencing
buying power was exhausted prices quick
~ sought lower level From time to time
there has been some buying on the part
Of spot houses and also some demand from
export brokers. but on the whole trading
has been rather limited SO that fluctuations
we're OF violent nature. The impression
/ is gaining ground that the present decline
has largely discounted the excellent crop
conditions and that the slightest en-
couragemert the bulls will take hold and
force prices higher In this respect We
would suggest that the sentiment of the cot
ton world seems to be against any great
advance. This sentiment, of course, pre-
walls under present crop conditions The
weekly bureau reports of the crop
from week to week continue most encourag-
ing. and our private advices confirm in the
fullest the official reports and II now looks
as though the Government report which
comes out on the 5th of July would show an
average condition OF 81 per cent to 90 per
cent. as against II per cent last July. At
the same time, there is little doubt but
what present prices have discounted
this belief In the event of the realization
OF these figures. those already short would
naturally want to take profits on the good
news. which would be a sustaining feature
On the other hand If the Government crop
report should turn out to be lower con-
dition, there would be a lively scramble TO
buy We therefore deduct that for the pres
ent week that the greatest possibility of
making money would be TO buy on the weak
spots. In previous letter we called at
tention 10 the fact that there was usually
a much larger amount of land planted than
was ever cultivated From recent reports,
we have reason TO think this year an ex-
ception. The dry spring has been a great
advantage in these localities where labor
is scarce. for it has enabled the farm hands
to accomplish more work at a time when
greatly needed. For once the fields are
we'll cleaned of grass and more easily Gull
tivated. Our advices recently indicate good
showers so that with exception of the small
part of South Carolina and southeast Ala
bama, rain is not needed. but the greatest
pest to be feared is the boil weeyil But
we think that allowance is made on all
estimates of the weeviTs destruction. 1t

ing at too great a premium September.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO, June 25.--Talk of an active
milling demand in the Southwest for new
wheat was the chief cause for a net gain
of cent today in September. Corn is
off u a &c, oats unchanged and pro-
visions down u G12hc.
AS the result of a variety of bullish in
fluences, a strong tone prevailed in wheat
at the opening The most prominent fac
tors were higher cables, decreased ship
in sections OF the Northwest where har-
vesting Is IN progress. Initial quotations
on September were up u a sc to sc at
sos 4s1. Trading was light during the
early part OF the session more from a scar
city of offerings from any lack of demand.
Shorts and commission houses were the
considerable amount of bearish news was
received. but 1t had little apparent eff
feet. the market retaining its opening firm
ness. On the other hand traders took par
ticular note of all bullsh items. CONT
mental advices told OF great damage to
wheat in Caucasia: estimate on the
worlds shipments for the week placed the
amount at about eighty million bushels, a
low figure compared with recent shipments.
Apparently the most influential factor of
late trading was report of a Minneapolis
crop expert which stated that the milling
demand was so urgent that there was lit
tie likelihood of any new wheat reaching
Chicago during July. The effect of this
report was to give added impetus to buy
vanced to SIX on the purchace of several
million bushels by Northwestern houses.
There was some reaction from the TOP, out
the market closed strong with September at
S1%. July ranged between IS and s6%
and closed with a gain OF &c at s5&
Clearances equaled 77.7O0 bushels Primary
receipts were 303, 500 bushels against 304.-
800 a year ago Minneapolis. Duluth and
Chicago reported 376 cars, against 301 last
week and 240 a year ago.
Heavy selling OF July corn by elevator In
terests caused weakness Owing to ideal
weather and a break in cash values senti-
ment was inclined to bearishness The
market opened firm higher cables and
smaller receipts than estimated. The close
was almost at the lowest point, July being

BY private wire from F. A. Longshore & Co
NEW ORLEANS. June 25.--In our last
letter we called attention TO the fact that
while present indications point TO a crop
deterioration OCCURS subsequent to June
and II is a fact worthy OF remark that dur
ing the past seasons that have shown the
highest percentage Of condition OF the first
OF July. the ultimate yield has almost In
variably been less per acre than during the
condition at this time. We know that there
r. at present an enormous short interest ex-
isting In the winter options, the greater
part OF which Is. while naturally a fegitt-
mats hedge by producers against their pros
pective crop. a considerable proportion of
ulative. including a majority OF the erst-
while bulls throughout the country who
bought the summer options around 1s and
II cents and are now busy selling the winter
months at discount of some seven cents
pound. Any genuine crop scare would
hundred points. IT is an undeniabie fact
that spinners have learned and paid for
a serious loss on during the past two sea-
sons are now taking advantage OF the low
levels OF prices to supply themselves with
cotton. II. as developments seem to indi-
within the next few months believe
that IT will require at least twelve million
bales of American cotton to meet the
worlds requirements. In the event of any
serious deterioration to growing crop, max
ing such production impracticable, how Is
after the consumer has taken the cotton
for which his contracts call. We advise ex ..
treme conservatism rather than heavy un-
protected commitments on the short side
and for the moment would only advise
short sales on any material advance.

THE F1NANcER's STATEMENT.

NEW YORK. June 25.-The Financier
this week says:
The striking features of the official state
ment OF the New York associated banks
last week were more or less important in
creases IN all the items except surplus re-
serve, which decreased only slightly. The
loans are now within S12115. 400 of the
highest ever reported which was on May
ID; the deposits are the greatest ever on
record, exceeding by $11.501,300 the maxi
mum shown on May 7. and the specie. legal
tenders and total cash are the highest for
the current year. Loans were increased
last week by S17.172. 400, a gain OF $40, 24s-
400 since June Attn; the weeks increase Yves
doubtless largely the result of negotiations
or corporation loans. The near approach of
the July dividend period also affected loan
operations The total of these payments
this week will aggregate about S137, 900, 900.
The cash reserve rose S4,9Os. 600, or about
/ As millions less than the amount which
was estimated upon the basis of the trace
able movements of money during the week.
The statement SO far as regards cash was
probably made on rising averages. the gains
having been largest after the middle OF the
week
Deposits were increased by sz1.1o1 500,
making n gain of s44.512. 200 since June 4 :;
the increase for the week. 1t may be noted,
was less by $4,000 than in the sum of
the gain in loans and therefore the state
ment was slightly out of proof. The requr-
ed reserve was increased $685. 400 deduct
ing which from the gain in cash left sat-
200 as the decrease in surplus reserve to
s3s.4S2675, Computed upon the basis Of
deposits less those of S23, $3.50, 800 public
funds. the surplus is s44,294.325. Circula-
ton was increased s217,3o0. making a gain

or much above the daily average. Pre-
sumsbly the increase in cash last week
would have been greater and probably con-
sidered In excess of the estimates but for
transfers of important amounts to Washing
ton for the reinforcement of the per cent
fund. This week the cash will
be augmented by transfers hither of more
than one million japanese gold from San
Francisco and also by the current net re-
ceipts of money from the interior. II APP
pears evident from the weeks statement
that there is little prospect of immediate
relief from the congestion in the local
money market. Comparisons of loans show
that six banks gained $14,7o00o0 not; the
increase in cash by seven banks was s2,-
coo. 900 net. !.

little demand for spot cotton. and as New

last years holdings. and the available at
