WILL BROADEN
 PUBLICITY BILL

Washington, June 11.--With a view of insuring the widest publicity of all the expenditures of candidates for Con gress, the Senate committee on priv ileges and elections next week will complete amendments to the House bill on this subject, which will vastly broad en the proposed law.
 Much difficulty is being experienced in finding terms which will express the committees purpose. It is proposed tc make the law applicable to primary as well as regular elections, The various kinds of primaries make it difficult tc deal with all in, the same terms. AT individual accounting by both candi- dates for the Senate and House will be required. An effort will be made to amend the law applying to corrupt practices so as to further insure the purity of the ballot.

COTTON CROP IS
 NEARING CRISIS

New Orleans, June 1.-The weather will market this week. Unless rain falls today in the cotton belt, and the forecast yes terday hardly admitted of such a. possi- bility, the market is going to open for the new weeks with the droughty cond;- tions of the last few weeks intensified.
 This week. unless rain falls quite gen. erally over the belt in the early part of it, will be critical period for the crop. Ad- vices from the belt are to the effect that the plant is backward and has stopped growing in a great many localities. More dry weather and high temperatures on top Of this will mean disaster and it will be impossible to hold prices down with such conditions prevailing.
 If rains should fall prices will break. The market is beginning to get loaded up with an extensive long interest in inc new crop months and this interest may readily be put on the run Anything like good rains will result in general lioui dation
 It will take developments out of the ordinary to scare up fresh interest in the old crops. They have apparently fallen into the hands of a few professional trad CTS of great capital and the gossip of the market in conneUion with them will be chiefly in relation to the amount of tend CTS that the bulls will have to take. The marketing of the first bale of the new crop last week caused hope to. run high among the bears; some circular writers on the weekend made much of this fea- ture and predicted a free movement of new cotton by the end of July. Anything tending to verify this claim will naturally weaken the old crops
 Everything seems to point to nothing but a weather market In the near future and in such a market he who guesses the weather glesses the course of prices

FRENCH-SPA PAN|SH
 TROUBLE SERIOUS
Trouble Growing Out of the Moroccan Situation
 Is Complicated

Paris, June 1.-The storm raised by Spanish military action in Morocco shows no sign of abating. The French press Is unanimous in condemning the attitude of Spain and the nationalist section is beginning to raise the Ger man "bogey"
 The Patrie declares Germany is s"pok ing up the fire" behind Spain. Mean while, the latest dispatches from Moroc- co show Spain is carrying out her plan undeterred by the representations of the French government and the protests of the Moors. Alcazar already is oc- cupied and Tetuan son will be.
 La Birte says the French govei : ment has invited tlae SrAntsh saveri-s ment to define with precision the mo- itary action at El Araish and Alcazar and France then will decide what steps to take in accordance with the reply.
 La Birte denies the statement that the press of England has encouraged Spanish action. On the contrary it as- serts the British government on two occasions, has called the attention of the government at Madrid, in strong terms, to the dangers of unnecessary military action.
 Alcazar, Kebir, Morocco. June h. The Spanish troops have arrived here and are encamped outside the town.
 
 Madrid, June 1.-The Diario Univer- so says there is no reason for seri- ous conflict with France concerning El Araish. The rights of both parties, the paper adds, are clearly defined by the act of Algeciras and the treaties between the countries. It Is Judicial problem that can be solved by diplo- matic means without affecting the friendly relations which have always existed between Spain and France.
 Tetuan, Morocco. June 1.-The ad- vance guard of the Spanish column ar rived here today and marked out camping ground on the heights com manding the town.

Pekin. Dec. 2S-Mongolia, which
almost equals China proper in size,
will be proclaimed independent Thurs
day simultaneously with the cutting
off from China of the vast dependency
OF Turkestan. Both will pass under
Russian influence and will practically
become Russian protectorates. Rus.
sia al any time will be able 10 annex
them. A grand khan will be named
as monarch of Mongolia. The COIL
struction OF the trans -Mongoliau rail-
way, for which Russia has long sought
permission from China, will now be
a matter OF time, Europe thereby
coming nearer to Pekin by three Or
four days.
Russian influence will flank the
Japanese pressure in Manchuria per
iliously and japanese alliance for the
sake OF preserving Japanese interests
may sooner or later be expected. Rus
sian officers and officials, if not the
Russian government proper, have in.
fluenced this action in Mongolia.
