MExIco's MARRIAGE PROBLEM
State and Church Laws Cause Confu-
sion and Women yictimized

From the San Antonio Express.
City of Mexico-The problem of civil
and religious marriages in Mexico has
again given rise to an animated discuss
SIGN in the press and in the pulpit. The
reform laws of Jaurez, which accom-
plished the complete separation of church
and state, made marriages a civil insti-
tuition The church ceremony is not rec
ognized by the state as legal mar
riage contract, and children born of
such unions, where there has not also
been civil marriage, are legally class
ed as ilegitimate.
On the other hand. the church does
mot recognize the civil marriage as be-
ing matrmony at ALL but merely a civil
contract. Heretofore. indeed. many
priests have discouraged the recognition
OF the odious reform laws by their paris
icners who have sought union in we'd
lock.
Out of such conditions have grown
serious social evils. Many, especially
anlcng the common people, are married
by the priest and neglect to legalize
such unions by going before a civil mag
istrate. Men easily take advantage Of
women in this way. The wife is DESERT
ed. and being unable to show that she
was married according to law, she has
no legal recourse. Cases are numerous
in which the man has two wives, being
and to the other by the civil ceremony.
He cannot be prosecuted for bigamy, as
only his civil marriage can be recognized
in the law courts.
Commenting upon this state of affairs.
the clerical press has found occasion to
again attack the policy of the govern
| inent in dealing with things that are
claimed to belong exclusively to the
! Jurisdiction of the church. On the other
side, the supporters of the government
blame the priests for neglectng to enjoin
| upon all who are married in the churches
the necessity of having the civil cere-
mony. performed and the marriage duly
| recorded.
Archbishop Mora, the prmate of Mex
leo, has sought solution of the prob
lem by issuing a PASTORAL letter calling
upon all the priests to preach from the
pulpit and advise from eae confessional
the celebration of the civil ceremony in
addition TO the religious in the weddings
OF all Catholics who henceforth contract
matrlmony

COTTON MARKET
IS MUCH F|RMER
Reports of Too Much Rain At
feet Prices a Little
THE DEMAND IS URGENT
Help the Upturn and Bulls Be-
come More Aggressive In
Buying Orders

New York, May 1.-THE cotton market
was decidedly firmer today as result of
less favorable weather reports, bullish
weekend figures, and a renewal of old.
crop bull support, with the close firm at
a net advance of IL to % points.
The opening was steady at unchanged
prices to an advance of points on COW
ering for over the week end, some fresh
buying attracted by the talk of too much
rain in central and eastern sections of
the belt and support of the old crop posi-
TONS by the null leaders. Trading al
first was rather quiet, but when private
advices came in. claiming a very severe
wind and hail storm in Oklahoma, extend
ing down in north Texas, demand be-
came more urgent and the market adj
vanced sharply
The official forecasts for further rain
encouraged the advance during the later
trading and the market closed at practi.
cally the best price Of the day, with July
selling around 12.54c, or about Nc above
the low level of last Thursday.
In addition to the less favorable view
OF weather conditions, the market was
undoubtedly influenced by the compare.
lively large decrease in the visible supply

1t also reflected an idea among local pro.
tesisonals that the large bulls were once
more assuming an aggressive position.
On the decline early in the week there
were rumors that the bulls were abandon
ing their position, but the readiness with
which the May notices were stopped yes
terday appears to have modified this view
OF the situation. There were no cables
from Liverpool, but all three of the big
futures markets will be open for business
as usual on Monday morning.
Receipts of cotton at the ports today,
$3.50 bales, against 1924 last week and
1S,O6S last year. For the week, 10000

WHEAT DECLINES ON
WEATHER REPORTS
Crop Is Helped By Rainfall in
the Wheat Section
CLOSE AT THE LOWEST


Chicago, May ALPHABETICALLY weather
conditions in all wheat-growing sections
of this country and the apparently hope
less prospect of any upheaval In Euro
pean prices turned sentiment here today
Enthusiastically TO the bear side. Closing
prices for that grain showed net loss
of lie to 1%c. There was also a decline
of Nc to %@7sc in corn, Nc to 5sQ%c
in oats, and 5Gp71ac to 271ac in provisions.
Final figures for wheat were about the
lowest for the day and week In the ac-
tive options The market opened at
big decline and showed onlJ faint re-
covery despite considerable covering by
shorts and much buying of the commits
sion concerns. Increasing pessimistic in
sect damage report from southern Illi-.
nois and almost despairing storm cries
from Oklahoma seem to make only a
temporary impression. The weeks pri-
mary receipts were 100000 bushels larger
than year ago. Texas reports were en-
phatic that notwithstanding allegations
to the contrary, conditions in that state
could be made to order. Kansas crops
showed eagerness to revise upward their
former estimates. Even faraway India
was heard from in an unofficial state
ment, that the united provinces would
produce 112,0O0000 bushels, against 5000, :
900 bushels year ago. Possibly the most
potent influence of all was the fact that
deliveries on May contract were contin-
ued heavy, both from lake and rail
arrivals. More cargoes by water are ex-
pected in the next few days. September
ranged from 99ls@9914c to 81. cox, closing
easy at the lowest figure reached, a net
loss of 1asc.
Corn showed much weakness on account
of the fine weather for the growing crop,
and because of the large increase In the
after-planting movements from the farms.
September. fluctuated between 6OSc and
6lssc, closing weak at the first named
price, net decline of 4@%c. Cash corn
was slow. No. yellow closed at 621tc.
Fine crop prospects led to considerable
selling of oats. The slump in wheat like
wise had bearish effect. September
varied from Ssc to 3s14Q3SAc, and closed
at 3S1sc, with the tone easy.
Provisions were off because of grain
weakness, and in consequence of a little
pressure to sell on part of the packers.
Pork closed 20@271sc down; lard, 5d7hc
and ribs, 711@10c.

Why He Wanted Dog License

From ihe New YorK Trlbune.
A young man, flushed of face, carry.
ing q Chihauhau dog, rushed hurredly
into the state courts building the other
day and asked excitedly for the dog
license bureau. You're in the wrong
house, a policeman advised him: you'll
have to so up town to the Cruelty to AMI
mails for that Vow exclaimed the
young man, as If in pain. Then he con-
1ded his story to the cop You see,"
he said, II just bought this NUT for
the girl I'm going to marry Then We
went over to the city hall to get our
marriage license. When we got there
she chased me out TO get a license for
this hairless brute. She's waiting for
me now" he added. but I guess it's no

BETTER BUSINESS
/ IN STOCK MARKET
Bond Sales in Paris Are Cause
of the Advance
TRADE ADvICES MIXED
Reports That American Stocks VIII BE
! Listed in Paris Also Aided the
Market and Money Market
Is Easier

New York, May 21.-The stimulant for
the speculative advance in stocks today
was the revival of the reports of the
placing of American bonds in Paris.
Along with the bond sale rumors cNne
the revival of stories that United States
Steel was to be listed in Paris. The
amount of the alleged bond sales in Paris
was raised materially above that adj
vanced when the subject first came to
s the attention of the stock market. The
reports of the Paris bond sales which
were the principal influence in advancing
stocks, were without effect on the foreign
exchange market.
bills of exchange on London arose
again to the highest point touched since
the foreign purchases of our bonds broke
the market American sterling today was
quoted at $4S755, which is nearly IL
cents the pound higher than it sold when
bills were being sold under the impress
sion that exchange would be in liberal
supply against then bond sales. Today'g
price is but q of cent per pound lower
than the high price of the season, in the
course of export movement of gold last
month.
The pig iron market Is reported to be
improving in tone and today's news of
crop conditions was favorable, the rains
In Texas being an item in that news.
Trade advices to the mert antile agencies
were mixed and the American Railway
association reported an addition in two
weeks of $4,000 to surplus freight cars.
bringing the net surplus to 122,593 cars,
a, higher figure than at any time since
August IS of last year.
There is nothing in the known transact
tons of the week to explain the actual
increase of s14,000,000 in loans shown by
the bank statement. The 100000 gain
In cash, however, left a margin of in
crease in the surplus Of $2S ,SS6,275 despite
of the expanded deposit liabilities, and is
sufficient to explain the easing of the
money market. This ease of the LOCAL
money market is factor also from the
persistent rise in foreign exchange. The
stock market closed lower and near the
high points Bonds were steady sales,
par value $9Ss000. United States IS have
declined u per cent bid price on call
