New Orleans, Aug. l9.-There were
no new developments worthy of note
over Sunday, and as result there
is no important change In the specu-
lative markets, stocks and cotton rul.
ing comparatively steady the former
a shade better, the latter somewhat
easier because of reported rains by
the Texas press at a number Of points
in the southwestern portion OF the
state. and shower being officially
predicted for West Texas tonight or
tomorrow and cooler weather for north
Arkansas and the two territories.
Much Importance Is being attached to
what the presidential candidate, Sec.
retary of War Taft might have to
say in his after dinner speech at Co
lumbus, Ohio, tonight as the tenor OF
same will probably denote the attitude
OF administration in near future as re-
CARDS trusts and corporations. II It
be the policy of President to sift to
the bottom every concern under sus.
picion. further effort may be made 10
force values to a cheaper level by
causing involuntary liquidation in the
stock market and by advancing the
rates of interest, On other hand II
other diplomacy be resorted to and a
more favorable condition be made
than anticipated, with object of start.
ing the tide in Wall street and ad-
vising confidence ON part of public, a
more hopeful feeling will probably
prevail and all markets may become
bouyant over investors entering mar
kets for speculative risks of every
description. AS for cotton, II has a
wider scope. The world and Wall sire
is not concerned as to its future. The
battle of money barons might continue
indefinitely but the people have to be
clothed. There viii probably be the
need of upward of l3,000O0O bales
next season, while crop promises at
moment are for less than 12,300,00O
bales lateness of plant in maturing
and because of Texas still suffering
from drouth the southern part OF
state, according to reports having
been damaged 25 to 80 per cent.
