NEW ORLEANS, September IS.-The
reaction in cotton was still active toda v
but declines We're not well maintained
and liquidation, TO great extent, was
offset by fresh buying. The close was
steady at net loss of 9 to ii points.
The opening was excited with prices
breaking under heavy selling in sym
pathy with the much lower Liverpool
than due. In the early trading the most
active months lost II to 23 points. These
levels brought out much buying, part of
which appeared to be new and part from
sold-out bulls. and quick recovery took
prices to within to points OF yester-
days close. During the remainder of
the morning the market fiuctuated nerv-
ously within a narrow range. Small
bulges stimulated liquidation and small
breaks stimulated fresh buying.
The markets undertone was steady
throughout the session, apparently on
the belief that the export situation would
be clarified by the rise in foreign ex-
change and the proposed Anglo French
loan. A buliSh feature Of some I'M

eJames H. (Bud) Gibson and Ernest

the mayor gave him s11, with which
he bought votes, ard Roeder, who was
a witness today, reported a conversa-

on election day.

Il told him all right, that we were

Gains Likely to Endure.

In the nature of things, what the
| United States has gained by the tempo
rary crippling of European commercial
rivals is much more important than IT
would be if the gain had been made at
time of peace. What Germany has
| lost in South America cannot be re-
covered for a generation, and IN the
meanwhile the United States has been
| occupying the lost ground. Whatever
| this country can acquire by CONNER
! cial relations with the Latin republics

years afterward the southern CONT

looked by the commercial prophets. 1t
is the height of unw!sdom for Amerl-
cans to cultivate bad relations with
Russia, since there is no country on
earth the friendship and trade of
whicr is so important to the United
States as the dominions of the cZar.
Russia is three-fifths Of Europe, and 4
third of Asia, and its resources make 1t

Americans want Russian trade, and
it is the part of wise foresight to leave
no stone unturned in securing this
greatest of all prizes. If the friend
ship of Russia is lost, no other possible
gain in the world can make up for this

Post-Bellum Business.

Naturally there is much speculation
about business conditions in this coun-
try after the war. despite the old max

fore you come to them, American man
ufacturers cannot refrain from looking
ahead and seeking to determine what
is in store for them when peace returns
to the world.
Perhaps it would be well to point
out to these prophets that whatever
conditions may exist Immediately fol-
lowing peace. those conditions will not
be permanent. but that the situation
will improve from year to year After
sufficient time has elapsed for the
European countries to recover them
selves they will be in as good shape as
before. OF necessity, Great Britain and
France will be in a somewhat weaker
position. financially, than they were
before the outbreak of hostilities, but
their trade. since the commerce has
not been suspended. will quickly re-
cover. With Germany, however. the
case is quite otherwise.
During the conflict. all trade and in
dustry is suspended. and unless the
cost of the struggle can be put upon
the allies. the states of the German
empire will be loaded with debts to a
point never before known in the world s
history. For this reason German trade
may be reduced to comparatively
small total for IN indefinite period, pend
ing the slow and painful recovery from
the exhaustion of this greatest of all
wars.
What is true of Germany is also true
of Austria. Russia is in the best condl-
tion of any of the belligerents. because
even more than the United States 1t is

sources and the possibilities of wealth
without a precedent or parallel in his
tory. 1t may seem strange that con-
sideration of future commercial condi-
tions in this country should be so
largely taken up with discussing the
status of foreign countries, but this is
an inevitable consequence of the fact
that any one country is merely a part
of the world, and is like any organ OF
the human body which is favorably or
seriously affected by the condition Of
other parts.
