GUILTY AS TRUST
Infinite Possibilities Found in
Perpetual Charter lust Given
Corporation.
L00PHOLE FOR DISSOLUTION
Gary Sets Example for His
Brother Officers in
Stratagem.
LOOPHOLE FOR DISSOLUTION
BY BoERsIANER.

There are infinite possibilities in
the letters patent just granted the
United States Steel Corporation by
the Canadian Government.
The grant is apropos of a $4,000
900 plant that the corporation means
to build up there. But the charter,
not the mill, is the thing. The Ii
cense to do almost any kind of bust
ness is perpetual.
Under it, also, Mr. Gary and his
associates may control all sorts Of
roperties-inCluding, Of course, the
Tennessee Company. Equally, of
course, the Steel Corporation may
recontract for the Great Northern
Ore Company-an amount of raw
material which it was difficult to be-
lieve Gary would relinquish.
The charter may be rendered sig
nificantly adaptable in other ways
Should the Government win the
pending suit against the corporation
should the United States Supreme
Court order a dissolution-the com
pany might eXtinguish itself in the
United States and operate under the
foreign rights just accorded.
It is an idea that should comfort
the corporations security holders
especially the owners of the common
and preferred stocks, who might be
simply asked to exchange the GER
tificates Of the old corporation for
stocks in the Canadian Concern-if
the worst befall in the court, or, in
deed, in Congress; for the Canadian
tariff differs from the schedule of
imposts proposed by the bill under
the Senates consideration.
Manifestly Mr.. Gary and his Coad-
tutors have INDUCED in thought for
over a year. Their cogitation has
ultimated in the Canadian PROPOSE
tion-whiCh may be made protective
alike to the management and to the
security holders
Obviously, too, Gary Is setting an
example to his brother corporation
managers who may say in defense
that the lawmakers of the United
States are driving industrial compa-
MES out of the country.
Whatever is done with the Cana
dian charter. it is certain that the
Steel Corporation has in reservation
a legal stratagem evasive, ingenious
and no doubt perfectly effective.

Rumely Plants Shut,
Years Orders Filled
The important Question to the Stock
holder Is, when VIII Manu-
featuring be Resumed"

NEW YORK, July IA dispatch
from Chicago to the effect that the
Rumely Company is planning practi-
cally to close down its plants for
making thrashlng machines and trac-
tor engines appeared at a casual
reading TO supply "A bearish argument
on the Rumely stocks.
Inquiry at the cOmpany's bankers
brought the confirmation Of the state
ment, but also developed some addi-
tional information which removed
much Of its possibilities as a market
factor. The company will stop con-
struCtton Of thrashers and tractors,
as well as several other lines Of farm
machinery, around August /, because
the years orders have been filled. The
remaining months Of 1913 will be de-
voted TO deliveries and collections
The contraction Of manufacturing in
midsummer IS a seasonal matter, fol-
lowed to greater or less extent by
all concerns making farming imple-
ments. OF far more significance than
the reason for closing the Rumely
plants is the problem as to when they
viii again start up.
Usually new contracts have been
received by the late autumn to war

substantial scale, but such may not
be the case this year. A director said

Cotton Trade Inclined
To Enlarge Estimates
Bears Timorous Despite Promise of Big Yields.
Spot Prices Steady.

MEMPHIS. July 19.-Another week
OF progress for the cotton crop is
history, and the tendency is to en-
large yield expectations. There is
still. however, plenty Of time for
something to happen and fear that it
might is contributing largely to the
disposition to make haste slowly in
yielding to the temptation to try to
discount a big crop.
The trade seems to realize that
ever since the first Of the year there
has been a feeling in the cotton world
that the crop of the season 1924
was going to be a large one, and so
far nothing has happened to serious
" interfere with this promise, yet in
the face Of many adverse conditions
and circumstances, the price has held
steady. and only for a brief spell have
futures been below II cents.
This fact tends to increase conf
denCe in the stability of the affair
and disCouraEes willingness on. the
part of bearishly inclined people to
commit themselves too heavily on that
side until there is assurance that the
crop will be sufficient for the worlds
needs for the ensuing year and allow
for some enlargement Of the reserves
in the hands Of spinners.
As yet notes Of complaint from the
fields have been in a minor key and
danger is largely prospective There
have been some temperatures that
We're too high for the best progress
Of the crop, for the moisture supply
was limited, but while this was the
case the weevils in the same districts
have been kept in check
Oklahoma has'sent the most serious
complaints as to the heat, although
the condition Is that State has been
high and there is room for some de-
terioration and still leave promise of a
good crop. Texas as usual is sending
variety OF reports, though the av-
erage opinion is that a record crop
viii be marketed there. There IS ba-
sis for expecting a large early move
ment from that Commonwealth also,
and three new bales already have been
marketed.
In this territory. which comprises
the area that produces the bulk Of
the long staple varieties, the pros
poet is the best in years, though i'm
the lower edge, including some Of Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas. the weevil bids
fair TO be a factor. Conditions are
so favorable at the moment that the

MORE CHEERFUL

Caused by Fine Growing
Weather Brings Optimism.
BY NJ A. ROSE

Two weeks of hot weather varied
by good showers. have done marvels
for the cotton crop Of the Southeast
according to the views Of competent
observers, who have made trips
through the farming sections.
Cotton in South Georgia IS waist
high. they say, and a little more Of
this ideal weather-ideaI from the
cotton planters standpoint-will do
much to overcome the late start the
crop suffered. II August, now will
be as kindly as July, and If the frost
is not too early. an excellent crop
win be assured. To make conditions
perfect, little rain in Central South
east Georgia might be added, for the
abundant showers elsewhere skipped
that section, according to the Wealth
er Bureaus report last week.
The feeling all around is more

that a customers balance be kept at
p per cent Of the total amount he Is

Atlanta institutions, with one or
two exceptions, have not yet begun to

a few weeks this win begin. probably
not as early as usual, for the cotton
crop is a little late.

Few Sales of Iron
at Present Prices
Southern Pig Held for S11 Per Ton.
Stocks Will be Reduced
in the Fall.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA. July Ia
Southern pig iron now is being held
for S11 per ton, and there are few
sales being made. The market is far
from being satisfactory however, and
the make is in excess Of the demand
The manufacturers are not inclined to
sell at the low prices that have been
prevailing, and though reports are TO
be heard Of 5000 per ton iron, there
are no orders
The accumulated stocks of iron, es-
t;fnsted heretofore at 100000 tons,
Should be cut down considerably dur
Tag the third quarter Of the year. At
81 per ton there is little profit on
pig iron, and the furnace companies
are said to be considering it better
business to hold the iron rather than
let it go out at the lower price.
Some Of the companies selling spe-
Cial brand iron are not making con-
Cessions on the premium prices; for
instance, the Alabama Company is not
selling Clifton iron under S12 per ton.
Special analysis iron is also com
manding a special price. Charcoal
iron commands more than $3.50 per
ton and very little business is now
being transacted for the reason that
consumers are looking forward to a
reduction in the quotations.
CuTtailment Of the production Of
pig iron il the Southern territory will
be increased as the conditions of the
market warrant it. The make in July
viii be considerably under what It
was in June, during which month
Alabama produced more than 1853, O00
tons of iron.
The steel plants are losing no time
There is a steady delivery of prod
ucts, though reports have 1t that there
is further reduction in untitled orders
Following the announcement Of the
placing Of an order for $4,000 tons of
rail by the Southern and other rail
roads, it is learned that something
like 10000 tons of other shapes IN
steel are needed and will be ordered
shortly in the Southern territory

LONDON, July 19-James Mclean,
of Phelps Dodge & Co, New York,
and a director in some thirty cor
porations, who sailed on the Impera-

"Our troubles, due merely to over

binary expansion of commerce
throughout the world during the past
few years. At present securities are
being liquidated almost to a stand
still. but there is no real deprecia-
