Moslsn,a of the World.

It Is a striking fact that there are 100000 more Moslems than Chris uans in the British empire. One-sev' enth of the whole human race is Mos lem. The really significant fact is that the proportion is not at a standstiil; it Is increasing yearly. There are to- 100000 Mohamnedans in India, and the number is steadily growing. Dur. ing the last decade the MoSlem popu letion of Indin increased by 0 per cent while the total population of India in creased by oDly. 2 per cent Many more natives are becoming Moham- medans every year than are turning t. Christianity There are 24.000.ooo Mo hammedans in Java. Northumberland Is absolutely dominant in Persia. To day nearly all the sacred places named in the Bible are under Mohummednr rule. These are but a few instances cut of many showing the onsweep oi Islam.-Christian Herald.

CABLES ARE FEATU RELESS

Trading IN cotton was again Ia small
volume and almost wholly professional In
character. The market displayed n steady
undertone throughout. gaining little
ground in the late trading on the execu-
ton OF several fair sized buying orders
in July. Final prices were to points
net higher in the active positions.
Fresh commitments were withheld
pending publication of the Census Bureau
ginning report. which will be issued at
the opening of the market tomorrow.
opinion ms to what this will show IL
somewhat divided. though it will prob
ably surprise no one II the ginning for
the first half OF January runs az large
as in the corresponding period last year
which amounted to approximately 49,
900 bales.
Most Of the comment about the rims
suggested that bullish views are still popu-
lar, Notwithstanding predictions by those
bcarishly inclined that the demand for
spot cotton in the South. which has been
one of the important factors in the recent
strength Of the market. will fall off
sharply as soon as spnners secure the
cotton needed to all immediate require
ments.
The cables were steady. but without In
fuencc here. The market here opened
unchanged to . points lower on the very
thin demand. Later New Orleans bought
hero as well as Liverpool. and on this
buying mainly the list worked to Il level
a point or two above tho preceding close.
Demand hroadened a little In the late
trading. with most OF the bidding for
July. Spot interests were credited with
a considerable part OF this buy ing. while

"StOckinG Money"

Tho reduction OF the official rate of
tho Austro- Hungarian Bank announced
this week Is highly interesting develop
ment when II is remembered that Vienna
was more directly placed in the storm
centre during the Balkan wars and the
wrsnglings which followed that struggle
than any other of the big European
CAPITALS. II was the market for capital
in Vienna which gave notice i'm sensa-
tionai way in the early fall of 1912 OF
the impending acute financial strain to
be felt all over the world. The present
reduction In the rate was foreshadowed
by "A statement made a week or so ago
nv an OFFICIAL OF the bank and reported
In the foreign press. He reported that
savings OF the nation. that Is the So
called stocking money" estimated at
over 500 900. 900 crowns. had reappeared
after having been boarded during tho en-
tire extent OF the Balkan troubles.

The Double Shunie.

Baltimore and Ohio viii in a few days
sell ex dividend. II is held that a de-
duction of tho whole semi-annual divi-
dend OF 3 per cent ought to make that
stock look rather low in comparison
with tho other s per centers. Thus
Atchison at yesterdays top was within
a fraction OF par and Southern Pacific
apparently Is showing every intention of
getting there ultimately. One argument
against the stock is that uncertainty has
arisen in the minds OF many people over
the double shuttle" in its investments
recently performed by the Union Pacific.
1t Is questioned why when the Union
Pacific had gained the sanction OF the
Department Of Justice to trade portion
of its Southern Pacific stock FOR the
Pennsylvania holdings OF Baltimore and
Ohio the latter should have been dis
tributed so soon afterward. But with the
main trend OF prices upward misgiyings
Of this description do not ordinarily
carry much weight with the majority. As
regards tho prospective release OF the
Baltimore and Ohio stock formerly locked
UP It is perhaps beginning to be realized
that the Union Pacific does not offer this
stock for sale. as IL did its Southern Pa
cifc. but distributes 1t as a dividend.
