THE COPPER MARKET.
Another Upward Turn Marked ny
Advanced to I2l. Cents.

Another upward move was scored YES
,erday in copper, when some of the pro-
ducers advanced their price 10 l2ts cents
a pound This compared with Il cents
established earlier in the week. Sales
at the top figure were not general for
some OF the producers stated that they
had not vet sold above the ~ cent level
The inquiry came from abroad and
was supplemented by good domestic or
dcrs
Another vessel. II was reported, had
been detained by Great Britain. the scene
of activity having been temporarily trans
ferred from the Mediterranean TO Scotland
where the steamship SIT was conveyed into
a small harbor. The copper was consigned
to Sweden, which country had already as
sured England that she would not allow
reexportation OF the metal The British
Ambassador at Washington IN return an
nounced that such governmental assur-
arce was sufficient and that shipments
TO Sweden would not be molested. One
o; the shippers said yesterday that ac-
companying his consignment was an aff!-
davit which contained the name of a
Swedish manufacturer who needed the
copper.

brief by John Bassett Moore has gone 20

SMALL NET DECLINE
IN COTTON MARKET
CndcrtOnc Is Beginning to
SHOW More Resistance
to Pressure.
OPINION OF WADE POOL

Cotton showed more resistance Nestcr-
day. and although prices registered a net
decline the loss was Il matter Of only 4
to points and was the result chiefly Of
scattered liquidation and some short sell
ing. Sentiment is moderately beaiish on
the near future of the market 1t is the
general belief that while the fundamentals
OF cotton may he sound there are certain
technical obstacles In the way OF an ad-
vance for the present II is believed that
the bearish factors IN the situation may
he easily nullhed II any aggressive buy
ing should set In This buying, however,
Is not in evidence At present. while there
Ia more or less pressure emanating from
Southern holders.
There was considerable comment in the
news that the formation OF the Wade
syndicate for $685.. 100000 had been sue
cessfully accomplished While there is
some division ot opinion as to the eco
monte wisdom OF this proposal and also
some scepticism regarding the necessity
for such a scheme opinion is unanimous
tu the effect that II will otter a degree OF
assurance to south arn holders. Many
cotton men 20 take She view that cent
cotton in the South basis r,iddling. IL out
of the question. The assistance offered
by the syndicate. IL is thought. would pre-
vent suCn depression.
Business Wa In small volume and the
trading, e anything. fell below the total
of Tuesday. Exports We're fairly heavy.
reaching total ~ about $4,000 bales.
The chief factor operating against a
confident buying movement Is the know,-
edge that so much cotton stu remains IN
primary hands. II Is probable that fully
1000. 900 bales have been gnned. while
no: more than $500 900 bales have been
marketed. With approximately 1900. 900
bales in the hands OF IA rncrs and interior
merchants il is felt that a moderate up-
turn would meet considerable selling pres

yelopmtnt would dispose OF this impress

supply and Demand.

The idea that the only thing which
stands In the way OF the reorenng OF the
exchange is the fear OF foreign liqu!da-
ton is all right as far rs Il goes. But
foreign liquidation IL admitted as n GER
tainty. The real fear il that the home
demand may be inadequate to take care
OF this foreign liquidation without dis
astrous decline. The proposition that for
eign liquidation can be choked off by
marking prices down IL also only partly
true. Certainly the foreign holder will
not care TO sacrifice his securities and the
lower prices go. up to a certain point the
more liquidation will be discouraged.
But the fact to be faced Is that n GER
tain amount OF liquidation from abroad
will have to be absorbed whatever hap
pens. The problem, therefore Is to md a
demand for this selling without allowing
prices to fall TO levels which would impair
confidence. \ mere marking down OF
prices without liquidation being accom-
Nlished In the process would not help a.
all, and ii might do much harm.

"SpOt" Call Loa ms.

Some bankers have been Offering small
amounts OF money on stock collateral az
per cent The regular rate on outstand-
ing Stock Exchange loans, however, re-
mains at s per cent As an indication OF
the state Of the market. therefore the new
rate is misleading. Moreover these new
loans are generally made with the express
understanding that they must lie paid of
upon notification. Whey are called spot
call loans to distinguish them from out
standing call loans. which owing to the
closing OF the exchange have taken on the
character Of time loans
Probably a good many brokers would
he willing to make a , per cent. rate on
their customers accounts provided they
could also te sure that the customer
would pay off his balance upon notihca-
ton. The banker has means OF bringing
pressure TO bear upon the broker. but
the broker has no means OF coercing his
customer in case he should refuse 10 pay
when the time IL up. The new money !s
therefore of little practical use to the
average broker.

Action Postponed.

Action on the proposal to inaUgurate
open trading in bonds ON the Stock En-
change. which is being considered by the
authorities as the next step toward a
complete resumption of business, will not
he taken this week. This does not mean
that the plan has been abandoned. 1t
means that the details have not yet been
worked out and 1t is not expected that
the matter will be In proper shape for
any new steps to he taken this week.
Many objections have been made to the
plan. Caution in letting down the bars
FUR her has been suggested by a distinct
increase in offerings Of foreign owned
stock in the last few DAYS Heavier sell
ing, whether Of foreign owned stock or
not has affected the market unfavcrably.
Brokers report that while there are a
good many orders in the general bond
list on both sides Of the market they are
relatively far apart. Nor Is u easy to
bring buyer and seller together.

Some Objections.

Objections have also been made to the
new plan on the ground of tmpractcabil-
ity. one of the features reported IL the
fixing of limits below which trades can
not be made. 1t is questioned whether
the public announcement OF limits in this
way would not effectually discourage buy
ing above them. " the limits had 20
lie lowered TO stimulate the demand tho
chances are the buyer would be all the
more inclined to walt until he was sure
the bottom had been reached.
Similarly objections may he found to
the wisdom Of making public tho daily
volume OF business or of printing prices
over tho tape OF the transactions as they
occur.

THE CURB MARKET.
Action of Prices Reflects More
Cheerful Sentiment.

The action OF prices in the curb market
yesterday gave further evidence OF the
more cheerful sentiment which has sprung
up with the extension OF trading facilities.
Dealings were in about the same volume
as have prevailed since the resumption,
with interest particularly centred on
Standard OIL and Whelan shares.
Trading In oil stocks broadened out
somewhat, with final quotations rejecting
irregula" changes. Continued strong de-
mand for Riker & Heeeman boosted the
price as high as So. with the final quota
tion holding at S. a gain OF y. The rights
were strong, moving up to 33. United
cigar stores and Profit Sharing Corpora
ton also displayed strong .ar.

MURDER TRIAL SET.
viii Try Longworths July 10 on thu
CHARGE of Killing Wilson.

Charge of Killing Wilson.
Nashville.-The date for the hear
ing of a motion for bail has been set
for July IS in the cases of Thomas e.
Longworth and his son, Joseph Long
worth, who are charged with the muir
der of Claire Wilson in South Nash
vile short time ago.
The Longworths sent negro boy
early on the morning of the shooting
to call Wilson out on fake long dis
lance telephone message, the police
say. When Vision was answering the
fake call he was met on the street by
the Longworths. 1t is alleged that
the elder Longworth said: "That's
him." and the younger man pulled a
revolver and killed Wilson, eye-wit-
nesses say.
The killing was over the younger
Longworth's sister. She and her
mother make daily visits to the Jail
to see young Longworth, but refuse
to talk with the elder man. Father
and son are in the same cell, but the
jailer has to remove the son to an
other cell before the mother and sis
ter will go in.
At the time of the killing Miss Long
worth bitterly upbraided her father.
She attended Wilson's funeral and
when she faced Wilson's young wife,
from whom he had separated Miss
Longworth tainted across the coffin.

WHY NOT FUTURE GREATNESS
Two Qualifications Surely Entitled
Young Mother to Fondest Hopes
for Her Son.

Occasionally these days one finds
servant with servile attitude of mind
and an adoring, unselfish heart. Such
nurse maid was Pansy, and she Law
ished all the devotion of her simple
heart on her young charge, Bobby.
On his first birthday anniversary she
sat looking at him in admiration and
after a long silence she turned to her
mistress:
Mrs. Blank, do you think Bobby
will ever be president OF the United
States?"
The young mother would not alto
gether pooh-pooh the idea of such
glowing possibilities for her sons flu
ture, SO she smiled and said: We'll,
you never can tell, Pansy. He might.
But why did you ask that"
