HEFLIN ASKS FARMERS TO
 HOLD THEIR COTTON FOR RISE

which he floods the south. The farmers should demand a fair price, he said, and should refuse to sell unless they obtain living profit. He called attention to the fact that the south produces about two-thirds of the worlds crop and there- fore Is the master if it will only use it's strength.
 we forced a bill through the dem- ocratic House to regulate cotton ex- changes to prevent gambling in cotton fd- lures but it died in the republican Senate. If that bill had become the law actual cot ton and not fictitious stuff. as is now used, would be handled on tho exchange.
 The exchanges would have to call on the farmers to fill the contracts ho pointed out, and in that way the pro- ducer would have more power. MT. Hef- lin then explained the method of specu- lation on the exchange and offered tte following remedy:
 There Is but one thing to do, and that is for everybody in the south to pull to- gether for good prices. Let the producers refuse to sell unless they get good prices. This experiment has been tried before. Let us try it again.

MONEY MARKET |S RULING INFLUENCE Gall Loan Rate Highest of
 Present Year BANK RESERVES LOW Market Is Indifferent to Politics-Ef- feet of Favorable Government Report on Cotton Condition
 Modified
BANK RESERVES LOW

New York, September S.-The money market continued to be the ruling h. fluence on stocks last week, to the ex- clusion largely of business, industry and politics The weeks belated open ing of Tuesday saw prompt response to the showing of the previous Satur- days bank statement in the rise of the call loan rate above 1 per cent to the highest of the present year.
 New York clearing house banks rare- ly have to enter the crop moving sea- son with surplus reserves below S5,0oO,- 900, as was the case shown In the bank statement when last week opened Withdrawals of cash from New York bank reserves during this season usu- ally run from s5O,oOo,ooO to s75, ,ooo but they may run heavier this year Bank reserves at interior points are lower than ordinarily in proportion to deposits. owing to the expanded credit position. Large crops, high prices and recovering trade all promise demands for money greater than usual.
 Foreign exchange Is affected by heavy imports of merchandise while the value of exports is suffering from the scanty remnant of last years grain crops available for shipm ents. Foreign money markets have their own prob- lems and are sensitive to resort to them by New York for relief
 Various steps were taken last week to adjust the affairs of the banks to the present and prospective require ments. The rise in call money indi- cated some recall of credits from the stock market. Heaviness in the bond market and in short term notes showed that the banks were selling out some of their holdings of securities to obtain funds. sharp fall in sterling ex- change rates reflected call on the London money market for credits, an casing of the private discount rate there encouraging this movement Lending of call money in New York fof interior banks had no effect here OH the actual supply, balances with the New York banks being drawn on for that purpose.
 The contrast of A favorable tendency in other news confirmed the belief that it was the tightness of the money market which weighed upon values of stocks as did the rally in stocks when call money rate receded. The quiet tone and narrow movement or Wednesdays market after the Vermont election were ascribed to indifference regarding politics. The effect of the highly favorable government report on condition of cotton as of August 25 was modified by fears of deteriora tion Since the date of the report, the usual August decline in condition apparently having been deferred owing to known lateness of the crop. Other crop news continued extremely encouraging. This weeks government report or grain crop conditions is expected to confirm this paf h. fident of heavy fall traffic, but are growing anxious about providing facili- ties to take care of 1t.
 The iron and steel trade maintains its activity with last months pig iron production at a record and the Septem- Der first capacity further increased and the price rising.
