There was increased activity and

cradle nervousness regarding tho crop
outlook, owing TO unfavorable weather
conditions. as the sustaining features.
There were few reactions. but they
were limited in extent and influence. and

tho high point of the day was reached
in the late trading. Liverpool was
buyer In the afternoon. with some local
and Southern covering. II was noted
after the close here that Southern spot
markets had not responded to the adj
vance in futures. and some traders are
saying that there will be a stock OF iO.-
go bales In local warehouses BY the end
Of July. Closing prices were firm at net

PRICE MOVEMENT
IN COMMODITIES
Wheat Slightly Lower
Corn, Oats and Coffee
Split Changes.

General doubt among wheat traders that
the present glowing crop prospects will be
carried through to harvest produced
strong opposition to bearish advices yes
terday. and the market held steady most
OF the day. with price changes narrow.
Late In the session there was some weak
ness In tho spring wheat markets, and
foreign advices showed improved condi-
lions in Continental centres. This caused
some weakness In the local market, and
last prices showed net declines Of lsalsc.
Corn also was steady early. but eased off
late. and while the May option showed n
net gain of NC later months were hQSc
Off. Oats followed the movement Of the
ether grains. without distinguishing feat
ure, and closed 1hc advance to the same
amount decline.
The local coffee market continued on its
quiet way. with a slight gain at the OPEN
ing. but the slackness OF demand and the
Inactivity OF the consuming business had
a depressing effect. and prices sagged off
iE the late trading. May showing a gain

Mop's Sixty DAYS.

II has been said that the Missouri Pa
cifc would have sixty days after June /.
when its S25,000.O00 Of notes mature. in
which 10 invent plan to satisfy the
noteholders II it cannot pay the notes in
the gold coin Of the United States" pro-
vded for in the contract. But on this
point Section of Article 8 of the in
denture says: If default shall be made
in the payment of any interest hereby
secured, and shall continue for sixty
days or IL default shall be made in the
payment Of any principal hereby secured
when the same shall become due and
payable. whether at maturity or by
declaration or otherwise. or il any other
default shall be made hereunder by the
railway company. and such other default
shall continue for sixty days after notice
10 II from the trustee or holders of not
less than 10 per cent in amount of
said notes outstanding. 1t shall be law
ful for the trustee" etc. And then il
is specified how the pledged collateral
shall be sold. But there is no stipu-
lation Of sixty days. 1t will be noted
that a siXty-day delay is specified in the
case Of defaulted interest and in the case
OF any other default than a simple failure
TO meet the principal when due but that
there is no mention at all Of sixty DAYS
or any other period in connection with a
straight default in principal. Presumably.
then, legal action can be taken against
the company Immediately after it has
failed to pay the principal Of its obliga-
ton. This presumption is strengthened
by the further language of the ,ndenture,
which says: in case the railway com
pany shall fail to pay the same forthwith
upon such demand the trustee shall
DO entitled to recover judgment for the
whole amount so due and unpaid"

Room for Arqument.

The point was made yesterday in con-
nection with possible default on the
Missouri Pacific notes that il part Of the
noteholders agree to accept notes or other
considerations in discharge of their
claims the contention might be made that
there was no simple default of principal.
but that another kind Of default had oc-
CURED. which would give the company
the benefit of the sixty-day clause already
referred TO. There is room there. at any
rate. for argument. IL could easily hap
pen that a default of this kind could be
brought about. since a large amount of
the notes is held by the Goulds, who
might use any kind OF strategy they saw
fit 10 employ.
