TRADERS WILL NOT DO
MUCH NEW BUSINESS

New Orleans, La, August 2s.-This
week the cotton market is liable to be
rather a dull affair. In the first place.
the old season will end on "Wednesday.
ana the trade will be anxious to know
all about the statistics of the Old crop
before entering extensively into com
mltments In the new; and, in the sec
ond place. the end of the market week
VIII come on Friday. because of Labor
Day. Friday the governments report
on the condition of the crop on Au-
gust 25 will be issued. and with such
an important report right at the week
end. and followed by the triple holi-
days. traders will hardly care to do
much new business, but rather will
even up their accounts.
AS is generally the case, the trade
does not know what to expect for the
old crop statistical totals
The crop itself may be larger or
smaller than generally expected, and
surprises may be found in spinners'
takings, or In the consumption figures.
Toward the end of each season the
amateur statisticians are rather apt to
say little. for the figures from Hester
are rather likely to upset estimates
from people who are inclined to lean
one way or another in the future mar
lset. With the statistics of the old
where it stands, which is very good
reason for waiting until the figures
are out before beginning large opera
tons.
AS yet the trade does not know what
to expect in the way of condition fig
ures. A month ago the condition OF
the crop was put at 1915 per cent. OF

market or otherwise, that traders
could use as an incentive for much
lower or higher prices. Hence. there
was a rather draggy market with the
swing of prices not wide enough 10
make n first class switching market
Contrary opinions continue 10 be given
out as to the effect of dry weather or
the influence of go5d rains on the
crop, On the one hand, the argument
is still used that seeking rains wonla
be TOO late for the CROP but that "
might have some effect In making the
soil ripe and in good condition for
next spring While that is 4 far-
away argument, 1t goes with some
cotton people just now
weather News II Fnctor.
1t was maintained that heavy rams
would help the crop n good deal. In
ti,is connection ii seems that reports
of rains are taken as market }noV-
ing cause quicker than are the re-
ports of dry weather. But that may
be due to the fact that the dry
weather has been featured more or
less as bull argument. and has heen
more or less discounted. and has.
therefore, lost its potency The trad
ing during the week has been mostly
of a local character. Now and then
there would be some cautious buy
ing on bad crop news. with some
covering by shorts. On the other
hand. some new short lines have been
out on the reaction theory.
The foreign markets have bean quite
as passive and uninLere.tinE as the
New York market has been. Some good
trade reports, however. have come
from the other side. and favorable
trade conditions are also noted here.
The Crop Estimates.
The indicated crop at the present
time, according to various authorities.
IS for total of. say, not more than
12,o00,o0o bales The majority of the
figures. however, are for less than that
by a good deal The latest estimate OF
the Mercantile Cotton Crop Reporting
Corporation brings its current figures
down to 10,3T0,O0O bales. This COM
pares with 1o.664.00O bales a month
ago. and 11,625,o00 two months ago,
and 1924, 900 bales a year ago. then
as of date of August 25, Advices from
Texas indicated that the State would
have the largest and earliest move
ment in her cotton history. 1t was
pointed ont that If 1t rains any time
this month the plant can take on new
life and make until frost, which sell
dom comes before December l. and
that a good crop is already made. A
big crop Is possible. On the other
hand, opposing ideas are expressed by
other correspondents. These men claim
that there is no chance of top crop
us the plants are too small for that
while they claim that rains, unless
followed by cloudy and cool weather
would do more harm than good. as
they would cause shedding and scald-
ing. AS wind-up. it is claimed thai
rains now would be beneficial only

Emporfa. Va. August 2s.-George j.
Tarrfs, a wellknown young white
farmer, who lives in the Scotch settle
ment seven miles from Emporia. was
terribly gored by a Jersey bull at the
farm of u. q. Snow. late yesterday
afternoon.
Mr.. Tarris's wounds amount to Il

ries, lost a large amount of blood be-

and well-informed dealers that as a
rule the crop was sufficiently ripe to
be safe from frost damage.
Other Factors In the Market.
This feeling served to check the
rising trend. as did the better reports
respecting harvesting returns In
spring wheat territory on both sides
of the border, Then, too recent es-
Inmates respecting the crop In Mani
toba and the Northwestern provinces
were higher. some authorities placins
IT at 10l, 100000 bushels against pre-
yious low estimates ranging from 65,-
100000 to 100000 bushels In the
main, cable advces were colorless and
without much influence. Paris showed
a stronger tendency. after an early de-
cline. as did Liverpool,
1t was the general impression that
the recovery abroad could be mainly
ascribed TO unfayorable weather in the
United Kingdom and France, Notwith-
standing these facts, exporters We're

Whit the Market Needs.
In the last half of the week there
was slightly stronger tendency, but
there was small recession after
wards. Much of the time there was
conspicuous narrowness, prices nuct-
uating slowly, and with a limited
radius, Apparently the principal mar
ket influences were not rufiiclently
potential to lift the market out of
the rut in which 1t has been dragging
lately. Then. too, It was imagined
that the apathy shown by big pro-
fessional operators had mucn to DO
with the circumscribed movement. 1t
was therefore plainly evident that a
fresh impulse was badly needed.
There mas been a decided pause in
foreign markets, and apparently the
excitement created by the French
damage reports has subsidized, although
mail advices from there fully confirm
all conservative reports respecting the
injury by bad weather. Recent tor
rental rains have greatly delayed
harvesting and hauling. and there Is
said to be much sproutlng in shock.
and in many places the loss will reach
between 30 and 40 per cent, numerous
fields yielding about is to 20 bushels,

MONTAUKS LEGALLY EXTINCT.
Court Holds That They No Longer
Exist as q Tribe.

NEW YORK, October 25.-The Montauk
tribe of Indians has been declared legally
extinct by Justice Blackmar of the su-
preme court of the second judicial dis
trict.
The decision was handed down in a suit
brought by Wyandank Pharaoh, chief of
the Montauk tribe, to enforce the rights
of the Indians against the Long Island
Railroad Company and others in respect
to twelve hundred acres OF land near
Montauk point, known as Indian Field.
After living on the field for couple of
centuries the members of the tribe were
reduced to two or three families. and the
land passed by purchase from them into
the hands of Arthur w. Benson in 1855.
Later the Indians tried to regain the
property but the courts would not enter
tain their suit, holding that they had no
recognized standing as a tribe.
In 1906 a law was passed permitting
suits to be instituted by tribes. The court
holds that Mr.. Benson's purchase Of the
land was legal, and that the Montauk
Indians have been scattered and assimi-
lated SO that they no longer form tribe.
