WANT OF MOISTURE
 AFFECTS COTTON iF1 sssa1s-s Market Closed Steady at a Net Advance of 12 to
 IA Points

New Orleans. August 4.-Cotton stood at small net advance throughout the session today, closing 10 to 12 points up, which was within a point of the highest. Unfavorable crop news and the heavy spot trading in Liverpool were the main sustaining features.
 Around the opening the market was very quiet and prices were ? to 8 points up on the good cables Later, reports of damage by drouth in the belt stimulated the demand to some extent and at II o'clock the weekly crop and weather re- ports from the weather bureau increased bullish sentiment. The English reply to the note from this country, however, was regarded In an unfavorable light and dis cussion of 1t undoubtedly held buying or ders down.
 Reports from the interior were that the crop was deteriorating for want of mois- ture, although scattered points, especially in Texas and the Atlantic. reported good rains. Much shedding and premature opening of bolls were noted and, on the whole, the trade appeared to believe that the crop was going back.

PRICES ADVANCE
 IN COTTON MARKET
British Note Regarded as a Determination to Stop
 German Shipments

New York. August 4.-Relatively firm cables and a more bulish weekly weather report than expected caused a sharp ad- vance in the cotton market today with the close firm at a net gain of from 12 to IA points.
 There appeared to be some overnight selling orders around the ring at the start and after opening steady at an advance of to 3 points prices dipped to about last nights closing figures Liverpool was a buyer here. however. while there was some disappointment that the weather map did not show more rain in the south west and prices soon rallied. The de- mand did not become active or aggressive. but there was very little cotton for sale, and after the publication of the weekly weather report active months worked IS to II points above the closing figures of yesterday.
 Private cables said the advance in Iiv- erpool was due to small offerings and a more active spot demand, and the spot sales of 1S,000 bales officially reported doubtless helped the local improvement Further rains were reported in the east ern belt suggesting that the drouth h.d been pretty well broken in some sections. but recent sellers were evidently much dis appointed by the showing of the weekly report, which stated that drouth was se- we're over large areas in Texas and there may also have been some covering on the New Orleans statement placing the worlds consumption of American cotton for the past season at 14.1s4.0oo bales, or less than 500,000 bales short of the pre- vious season.
 The British note was regarded as indi- eating continued determination to pre- vent shipments destined for Germany but reports that the British gov ernment was to take charge of the burlap industry in India led to predictions of a stronger position in the market for coarse cotton goods Port receipts for the day were S916 bales. United States port stocks, 74S- 9SS. Exports 1857 bales; so far this sea son, 5S10.

INDUSTRIAL STOCKS ADVANCE SHARPLY
Bethlehem Steel Makes An other Remarkable Ad-
 vance in Prices

New York, August 4.-Industrials again advanced sharply today. but railroad stocks Jagged. There was no sign of the broad demand for the railroads of the pre- eeding session, and the market lacked the ;, balance and widely distributed strength of that day. The sIuggishness of the rail- roads. however, did not interfere with the Fssigor of the movement among the indus trials, particularly the steel issues. Total sales were 67500o shares.
 United States Steel was the leader, be- ing traded in heavily throughout the day rising ? 3-5 to 7esm a higher price than 1t attained during 1914 or 1913, when it was on a dividend basis. Bethlehem Steel made another remarkable advance. On the first two sales it rose IS points ana later it mounted to 29O, gain on the day of 22 points Its previous high record was 275. There were upturns of to points among such stocks as Crucible Steel, Sloss-Sheffield, Pressed Steel car, American Car and Foundry, Continental Can, General Electric. Mexican Petroleum and California Petroleum.
 Buying of these shares was well sus- ldiieu, anu ditHouSh eheic ~5 ional reactions the close in most cases was near the days best.
 In the railroad list St. Paul and Canad- ian Pacific were heavy, but the average change was slight. Professional traders, who were active in bidding up the war shares, neglected the railroads, and out side interest was centered in the favor ite industrials.
 Trade reports, particularly from the steel and iron industry, were optimistic enough to explain the heavy buying or those shares. The weekly reviews of the steecl trade indicated that operations were we'll up toward capacity. Pig iron prodnc- tion for July was at the rate of S269l tons daily, as compared with 79,s61 tons in June.

 Altoona, Pa.-Told to weed the garden. Sebart Hetrick. aged IS. son of Frank Hetrick of Bellwood. began pulling up everything within reach.
 Mrs. Patrick happened into the yard and saw some of her prize beets had been up- rooted. She suspected Sebart knew the difference between weeds and vegetables and she concluded to paddle him.
 The lad had previously laid in supply of powder caps for his toy pistol on the Fourth, which he had tucked in his hip pocket. When the paddle descended ex- ploslon followed explosion, until 1t seemed as if, a machine gun had got into action
 An armistice was declared but not be- fore Sebart was painfully burned about the place where the caps were.

 Production of pig iron in July amounted to 2.66s,sl1 tons. a gain of 1ss.s79 tons over last October 1918. Many impor- tant producers of semi-finished materials are sold up for remainder of the year and are unwilling to take on any further business at present time Eastern makers are declining to take business for ex- port account of their sold up condition. Mills in the Chicago district are being so pressed to meet the demand in that part of tho country that they probably Will be compelled to stop shipping billets and sheet bars to Pittsburg plants. ship ments of Lake Superior ores for July amounted to 7.204,0H tons. compared with 6,7s4,514 tons fin July, 1914. and S.2o44l6 tons in July, 1918. Indications are that the movement for this season will be about 42,000.0o0 tons. One of the most interesting features In the market is improvement In scrap. and while in New York excitement in old material market Is attributed to brokers. legiti- mate advances have been made in sev- eral leading centers. and the trend is distinctly upward: in Chicago, however, prices evidently advanced too rapidly. and some weakness has developed. In Cleveland there has been a sudden turn upward and prices are from e5 cents to S1 n ton higher.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York. August 4--(Special.) )-Cables this morning were again better than due, and spot sales reached 1S.000 bales, large total for this season of the year at any time This business in the actual in Liverpool begins slo~,ly to attract at- tention. and that market was again a moderate buyer here. Since no fresh selling pressure came from the south prices advanced slowly during the day. The weekly weather report made a rather bullish showing, and the fact that spell of showery weather has apparently passed away without general rains in Texas, Is, of course, against the crop in the southwest. There Is little change in local sentiment, but a continuation of this spot business in Liverpool will attract moro attention if we should now run into another spell of dry, warm weather in the south
