New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans. July 22.-Cotton futures
opened steady at n decline of 7G9 points
this morning. Cables were not quite up
to expectations and the weather map
was generally called favorable as next
to no rain was shown anywhere In the
eastern delta. This offset the lack Of
showers In Texas and Oklahoma.
| Shorts were the best sellers although
some liquidation came from the long side.
July was neglected. At the end Of the
first half hour of business prices were 10
points under Saturdays last quotations
on the new crop positions, Scaplng
shorts took profits freely toward the
middle of the day. The list steaded very
quickly. This attracted some fresh buy
ing for long account.
The forecast offered nothing either way
TO trade on which checked the tendency
to sell short and offerings finally be-
came very slim. Complaints of army
worms came in from Alabama and Geor-
gia and boil weevll reports came In from
Mississippi and Texas.
Failure of new cotton TO appear over
Sunday caused bullish gossip.
At noon the trading months were
points under Saturdays final quotations.

A prominent Mississippi banker who was
visitor TO Jackson today suggests d
plan by which bank examiner may be
secured for Mississippi in spite of the
legislature The recent failure of half
dozen banks In the state have put the
bankers to thinking. They demanded
banking laws, including system of ex-
animation. at the late session of the leg
islature, but lost out at the hands Of
the very people who were to be safe
guarded and protected
This visiting banker suggests that the
executive committee of the State Bank
ers association shall meet at Jackson
and appoint an expert bank boollkeeper
or accountant as bank examiner, and
send him into every bank that is mem
Der Of the association. This will not only
force every bank In the state TO join the
Bankers association, but to contribute
to the pay of the examiner. Those banks
that decline or refuse to be examined
will be barred from the association and
have no affiliaton with the other banks
of the state that are members. The plan
has been submitted 10 the bankers of
Jackson and is well received.

The next day, the 18th, we left for
Hill, the next city of Importance.
about $50 miles from Honolulu, on
the island of Hawaii, which seems to
be, and in fact. is, the top Of a noun
tain and is 1880 feet high, the top
of which is covered with snow. On
Sunday, the 18th, party OF us left
the ship to visit the volcano. We went
by rail twenty-five miles to Glenwood
and thence in autos to the volcano
house, about nine miles farther, then
we walked three miles farther to the
crater.
AS we neared It we saw steam, or
vapor rising from the ground in a
dozen different places. over one of
these we scorched some post cards
on a stick, of which 1 will send some.
One place they called the Devils
Kitchen" We looked In and saw some
very curious formations but were not
able to obtain any on account Of the
heat and fumes. When we reached the
top of the crater which is about a
mile in length and looked down at the
boiling lava thought of all the bad
things 1 had ever done. The lava the
day we were there boiled up 20 feet
higher than the day before and feet
more than the next day.
The distance from the top of the
crater to lava is usually about 300
feet. 1t is about 175 feet now. which
is cause of apprehension to the
dwellers of the island. A duh red
glare from the 2s5o acres of red. hot
boiling lava lights the sky at night.
From here our ship will probably
sail for China.

GUNnIS0N COUNTY AHS,
RAINBOW ROUTE SELECTED

Gunnison. Jan. -Gunnison county
will go down to Pueblo 70 the Colo
RADIO Good Roads associations con-
vention Wednesday next with a
strong delegation organized to fight
for the Rainbow Route as part Of
the transcontinental highway. The
members will have data and maps
to prove that the route from salida
over Monarch and Cochefnpa passes
to Gunnison and on to Montrose and
Grand Junction is the shortest, most
beautiful and most feasible cross-the-
state automobile route that could bs
selected.
The delegates met Saturday night
and outlined a plan OF action that in
cludes only one idea-the Rainbow
Route via Gunnison- The Santa Fe
trail to Pueblo and then to Canon
City is popular with Gunnison people
but the towns from Pueblo west to
Salida must show the Gunnison and
Montrose people that they are with
them before any alignment can be
made.
1t is hoped that Denver will not
show a selfish spirit in this contest.
Residents of this section contend that
the southern portion OF the state and
the western slope counties are en-
titled to some OF the good things that
are being passed around. Which ever
route is chosen, it is pointed out
that Denver must in time get the
tourist. because everybody who comes
to Colorado eventually goes to Den-
