falling off of last years production.
This showing does not cause the least
concern to the south, however. which
is more interested in a higher price for
cotton than for a larger yield. The
sharp advance in cotton futures on the
New York and New Orleans exchanges
is an evidence of the estimate which
the market put upon this showing as, a
factor in increasing the value of the
staple If the south should look upon
this falling off in probable production
of cotton as good news. it can consider
in this same connection the fact that
the successful fiotation of the Anglo
French loan has at the same time given
added assurance of Europe's ability to
buy here the cotton which 1t needs.

Stock Market Features.

Wall street has during the past two
or three weeks enjoyed the most wide
spread and sustained interest of the
general investing public that has ever
been accorded our premier security
mart. Transactions have been large,
even record breaking, but there is not
even the suspicion of manipulation Or
wash sale" movements, too
often the case in days gone by. 1t is
true that the market values of many
stocks have been marked up many
points beyond their true worth, and in
this respect there is danger of a rude
awakening for many who are already
spending their paper profits" There
Is an almost complete discontinuance
of sales Of ten-thousand and even thou
sand share lots, indicating the wide
area over which speculative interest
has been spread, and proving most con-
clusively that professionalism in the
market is secondary to genuine trading
by the public.
Moreover, Wall street has taken par
ticular precaution to protect itself
against some of the undesirable eff
fscts of unrestrained speculation, and
to this may be attributed Some OF the
severe declines in those issues which
have been ear-marked for sensational
advances. In order to protect specu-
lators against the consequences of their
own folly. many of the brokerage
houses have sent out demands for UNI
usually high margins in the case of the
spectacular industrials. The large COM
mercial banks have also rigidly MAIN
tanned the policy of strict supervision
over the collateral offered for loans In
the stock market. and the rapid up
building of the war industria!s has led
TO q severe marking down of their
percentage of loan value. 1t is axio-
matte that tho most violent fluctuations

The country never was so flooded
with money. Any one with any legiti-

his bank emptyhanded, and the rates
offer good opportunities to make use of

Washington may rejoice at tho busi-

Outlook for Continuance.
No one thinks of the European war
as q matter of few weeks or months
more. Contracts for ammunition and
supplies deliverable in the latter part
of 1916 have been placed. The big loan
to the allies means continuation of big
buying in our markets. And the feeling
is that this country is to have pros
perity throughout the war, while some
financters look for even better times
after the struggle. as the United States
nation ready to work to the limit in
the rehbailitating movement.
