Present Chaotic Condition Due Soon
to Vanish.

Asheville, N. C.-The Southern
Soft Yarn Spinners' Association,
with representatives from Virginia,
South Carolina, North Carolina, Ala
bama and Tennessee, held meet
ing here to consider conditions in
the soft yarn market. A statement
issued after the meeting says:
''The feeling prevails that with
the settlement of the tariff question,
the chaotic conditions which have
prevailed in the soft yarn market
will soon be over. We look for an
increasing demand for yarn and soon
the price will be in accord with cot
ton"
Each spinner will be asked to re-
duce his output to the minute un-
til conditions improve.
While conditions have been very
unfavorable during the past year,
the spirners are optimistic as to the
outlook for the new crop and are
delaying definite and final action un-
til the size of the crop can be more
definitely estimated.

DEARER MONEY IS EXPECTED
London Bankers Are Looking
for Change to Come.
ANY TURN WILL Be AN UPWARD ONE
Speculation I'm The Stock Market at
O Standstill. No Betterment
Expected Before the
Autumn.

New YOrk.-The Journal OF Com
merce's London correspondent cab
les as follows:
Our leading bankers are inclin-
ed to anticipate dearer money with
In the next few weeks. General
business has recently proven increas-
Ing by disappointing anspeculation in
the city has dropped to customary
midsummer proportions. Yet the
money market shows underlying
strength. London is hopeful for the
future, both as regards investments
and general trade; we look for dis
tinct activity in the early autumn.
There is no longer talk of lower
bank rate. Any change will be up
ward, and many think this will have
occurred by October.
I'VE are doing nothing in your
securities; we believe them too high,
and are rather expecting the formal
enactment of your new tariff law to
be the excuse for liquidation by your
professionals. The American mar
ket here is wholly controlled from
New York, and Is being used for
New York manipulation.
"The city is very quiet. Opera
tors, quite generally, are away on
their holidays, and those who re-
main are about equally divided, half
being bulls and half bears. The
deadlock will require some in ort-
ant news development to break it,
II there is toe any activity before
autumn. This development may
take the form of the complete col
lapse of the opposition to the Brit
ish budget. Substantial signs are
already apparent of such collapse.
The London Times has raised the
white flag; it is seeking to retire
with dignity from a losing position.
The Daily Mail, which has been one
Of the loudest and most energetic
critics of the governments finance
bill, is also perceptibly weakening;
and the financial papers are firing
of fight that has such slight pros
pect OF success.
1.-The final success of Mr.. Lloyd
Georges financial proposals means
a strong renewal Of home invest
ments. The organized opposition to
his plans has diverted more British
capital to foreign investments than
is generally appreciated. When the
investment temperament returns to
normal we shall see a considerable
part of this money come back to our
own securities. The new taxes ap-
pear much worse than they will
work out in practical operation.
Your new tariff is considered a
failure here, both in its political and
its commercial aspects. 1t does not
surprise us, for it has been clearly
apparent for months that no radical
revision could be secured. We do
look gradual, steady Improvement in
your mercantile and manufacturing
departments, but no boom"

lion acres of land were involved in the
suit.
