SMALL CHANGE IN
PRICE OF STOCK
Talent Awaiting Results of the
Strike Conference, Which Is
Expected To Be Averted.

NEW YORK, July 14-Heaviness In
the foreign markets and anxiety over
the strike situation on the Eastern
railways caused a dull opening of the
stock market to-day and most of the
initial quotations were lower. After
half an hour many of the issues which
had begun lower made partial recov-
cries
Among the declines were U. S Steel
common, u; Union Pacific, y; South
ern Pacific, Il; Reading, Il; Lehigh
Valley, III c. and o., 4; Canadian
Pacific, 1; American Smelling, Il, and
Amalgamated Copper, ".
Union Pacific, Reading and Canadian
Pacific made complete recoveries. New
York Central advanced Il while Ana
conda and American Can also gained.
The curb was quiet. Americans in
London were irregular and narrow.
Canadian Pacific in London was lower.
Price movements remained unchanged
except for slight fractional gains which
were recorded in the last few minutes
of trading. Canadian Pacific moved
up y to 213, with New York Central the
only declining issue, yielding * to
961s. Union Pacific, Reading, Southern
Pacific and Northern Pacific advanced
u. Chesapeake and Ohio rose n, other
issues unchanged. Can money loaned

Senator Smith Has Plan to Check
Bears by Reforming Present
Exchange Contracts.

WASHINGTON, July IA favor
able report has been ordered by a
subcommittee of the Senate Commit
tee on Agriculture on bin intro
duced by Senator Smith, of South
Carolina, providing for governmental
standard Of grades Of cotton and re-
curing the contracts for the purchase
or sale of cotton to be fulfilled in the
grade specified In the contract,
Senator Smiths bill differs from
the Clarke amendment to the tariff
bill in that it provides no tax on. pen-
aities for failure to deliver under a
contract for future delivery.
Senator Smith, who is a cotton
planter Of wide experience, has ex-
pressed the fear that Senator Clarke's
amendment, If adopted by Congress,
viii operate to impose a burden on the
cotton grower. He is thinking Sc
riously of offering his amendment as
a substitute.
The Smith bill provides that every
contract for the purchase or sale Of
cotton for future delivery shall be in
writing and shall specify the grade OF
cotton that is the subject matter OF
the contract. Nine governments
9btilNdiuS are suggested by the bill In
preference to the 81 graduations fixed
by the New York Cotton Exchange
Under the bill the Secretary of Agri.
culture is directed to prescribe sepa
rate standards for the various grades
OF long staple" or gulf cotton" ano
all contracts for the purchase or sale
OF such cotton are required to specify
the length of the staple.
Senator Smith pointed out what ht
regarded as the important feature O.
this Dill which requires that the seller
OF cotton for future delivery be re,
stricted by his contract to the option
OF settling on the basis Of not NOR,
than one grade above or grade below
the particular grade specified in the
contract. In making settlement the
commercial difference in the price OF
such grades the day previous to set.
tlement are to determine the price a
which the buyers must settle.
AT present future contracts 70

cause II is realized that when deliv

fetal valuation so much higher than
