FOREIGN EXCHANGE
RATES ADVANCE
Gold Pool May BE Increased in
Size, Is Report-City Note
Subscriptions.

Foreign exchange rates stiffened yes
icrday with the purchases by banks
and trust companies called upon TO
Tcy The third instalmcnt of their sub
sCriptions 10 the city notes. At the
close demand touched 1858 and cables
1861. and the market showed very
rrm tone, notwithstanding that the
gold fund committee began in the
afternoon 10 sell cables as well az de-
uanG checks on London.
4 member Of the committee cx-
plaincd that II had sold demand ex-
change on Friday at 1864 and on Mon
Gay Al 1851. II was assumed that the
rates fixed yesterday afternoon for de-
liyerics this morning would be about
one-uuartrr Of cent in the pound
sterling above the general market,
since that was what the demand rate
was on the two previous days of sale.
The amount of business being done by
the rool IS not so large as was antici-
rated, although bankers say that the
amount Of foreign Indebtedness Of the
country j. much larger than was sup
posed at the time il was first proposed
70 form the pool. There was talk yes
to-day Of increasing the amount Of
the pool subscriptions.
There was withdrawn from the Sub
Treasury in the course OF the day
$4,000 IN gold coin for shipment to
Canada, presumably in connection with
the payment Of New York City revenue
warrants in London toward the middle
Of the month.
The foreign exchange market was
active. demand being especially strong
from those who had to cover finance
bills. 4 great number of these bills
were put out in July, when the rate of
exchange was at the unusually high
figure Of 4.89. and it was thought to be
q simple and profitable operation TO
draw bills then and cover them about
tli. time OF the year, when normally
heavy grain and cotton shipments
would have made exchange low. IL is
the people who saw their chance for
q profit then, banker said yesterday,
Who are having to take a big loss now,
and who are among the most important
customers for bills of exchange. To-
cay there is a fast steamer sailing for
Europe. Yesterdays indications were
that IL would carry a record cargo OF
demand bills.
German exchange was still weak,
mark cables and demand alike being
quoted at 92is. This IS considerably
below what IN normal times would be
considered the import point for gold
about GAS. In one quarter 1t was said
that good many German exporters
had asked that instead Of payment
being made TO them in mark exchange
they be credited with the sums owed
them in New York funds.

Commercial Paper Demand.

One of the most hopeful indications
Of an improvement in the financial
situation is reported BY dealers in
commercial paper, who say that the
demand is now greater than at any
time since the outbreak of the war.
One note broker said yesterday that
while the present volume OF business
is still at least rs per cent below nor
NAL, the larger institutions, notably
the trust companies, have taken the
lead, and are purchasing fair amounts
OF paper, and the smaller banks are ex-
pected soon to follow. Rates continue
TO be Z per cent and above for the
best names.

COTTON TRADING
TO Be RESUMED
Unofficial Announcement
Made of Exchange Com
mittee'S Plans.

While no official statements were is
suod at the Cotton Exchange yesterday
to indicate the progress that has been
mado toward an early resumption OF
business in futures sentiment around
the floor was more optimistic, and It
WAS reported that the syndicate plan
for taking care of the old interest had
been practically completed. This plan
proposes the organization Of "A corpora
ton for the purpose of taking over all
speculative long December cotton at
cents. In such an event each member
AMI firm of the Exchange will be asked
to agree to tax on all subsequent
transactions Of 81 80 per cont ct for
TIE round turn until the total amount
paid by the tax shall equal 81 90 or
bale OIL the amount of long cotton taken
over by the corporation plus interest
on money borrowed from'thc banks and
expenses.
In addition it is proposed to II a
syndicate which shall agree to buy at
~ cents pound from the corporation
all contracts taken over by the corpora
ton, and when the price reaches that
figure each member of the syndicate
will own outright his share of the cot
tor. at 7is cents, and can dispose of it
as he chooses. The corporation will
sell as much cotton as possible above
~ cents. Any firm turning in long
cotton 60 the corporation ut 8 cents
may withdraw it absolutely at that
price and obtain the obligation of the
corporation to pay that firm 81 so per
bale on such cotton withdrawn.
1t is expected that the committee on
bylaws and rules will report to the
Board of Managers to-day. After the
Board of Managers has approved new
rules they will be posted on the bulletin
board of the Exchange for ten days be-
fore they arc voted upon By the mem
bcrs.
Nothing happened to indicate any ma
tcrial change in the more general stu
alton. Exports arc increasing, and
