therefore, is that our foreign trade in
war merchandise will be diminished,
with very uncomfortable consequences
20 the profits of the companies en-
gagged therein.
Need of Credit Emphasized
J. p. Morgan & Co, fiscal agents for
the British government, having already
brought out S1,15O,000,000 of British
and French short term loans (all but
the first S50O,0O0,OO0 Anglo-French
loan secured by collateral), had been
preparing the way for British and
French treasury bills by strongly
emphasizing the idea that in order TO
20 on selling war merchandise TO tae
belligerents we should have 70 give
them credit on their unsecured paper
The difference between short term
war loan and a treasury bill is I'M
portant. A short term loan has fixed
maturity. bears stated rate Of in
tcrest, and is offered to the public.
Treasury bills are sold only TO banks
at variable rates Of interest and for
variable periods. Either way of rais,
ing credit for the Allies IS expected
now TO be more difficult. Hence the
concern about the war trade on the
Stock Exchange.
Yesterdays discussion in Wall street
was in many directions acrimonious:
To keep il free from emotional and
political bias was almost impossible.
J. p. Morgan & Co. declined to issue

WALL STREET SEES
DANGER TO TRADE

corning them will tend to restrict their
sale.
The alternative TO the sale Of treas
ury bills would be to bring out IN
secured short term loans for sale either
to the banks or to private investors
but as the Federal Reserve Board went
so far as to warn private investors TO
be more careful about foreign loans,
particularly in the case Of unsecured
loans" new difficulty has been placed
in the way Of foreign financing on any
terms.
Fear Trade Will Suffer
Therefore, the fear is that credit
for our war customers viii now be
harder 70 raise, which suggests, Of
course, that their buying of war goods
at nigh prices may be restricted for
want Of credit. If they cannot borrow
they cannot buy, except with gold, and
it is not imaginable that the buying
of these goods at the present rate Of
between S3,500,OO0,00 and $4,000
0O0. 200 a year could continue long TO
be paid for with gold alone.

Cotton

Growing popularity of bearish ideas
nrompted extremely free selling of cot
ton Yesterday, ana closing prices,
which were practically the lowest for
the day, showed losses equal to 81 TO
$3.50 a bale. Not only was liquidation
of long cotton of enormous volume Dut
there was also much more aggressive
selling for short account, based on the
belief that the crest OF the upward
movement had come with the estaoilsA-
ment of new high levels on MONDAY,
when May and July contracts crossed
the 81 &c mark.
At the outset selling wGs prompted
in part by the fact that the recent
encouragement from abroad wes lack
ing. When the local market opened
LIVERPOOL was about as easy as nad
been expected, while later that market
broke more sharply, showing losses OF
over so American points at the Close
Hedge selling was said to be more I'D
eral there, while spot cotton was OF
fered on an easier basis.
British support in the shape OF puy-
ing orders was also lacking, foreign
speculators selling much more than
thew bought in this market. Wall Street
houses sold because of the easier tone
in stocks, while the big uptown mold
ers threw over large blocks. The same
was true of big room traders, and 1t
was said that one Of the leaders, pre-
paratory to going away, had unloaded
close TO 10000 bales.
Long cotton from the west was
poured into the ring all day, and espe-
cially in the last hour, when the start
ling break Of 10c to lac in wheat
prices occurred. Selling was also
prompted late in the day BY the re-
port that the American steamer Che
mung had been sunk by German sub
marine, reviving fears of shipping re-
strictions and possible political compli-
cations. At times, and especially in
the morning, spot people were disposed
to buy little, notably January con-
tracts. but otherwise support was de-
cidedly feeble most Of the time. Some
OF the sold-out bulls replaced part OF
their holdings on the decline, while
buying orders came from the South
when prices were around the bottom.
Spot advices were somewhat conflict
ing, but no real weakness was notice
able. New Orleans reported sales Of
1871 bales at Mondays price, 2O.3Sc,
while Augusta sold 1,4l0 bales, also at
2O.3Sc, a decline OF points.

Detroit, Nov. 2s.--Attorneys for John

final arguments to-day in the injunc--

that the Ford company's capitalization

allowed by Michigan laws.
Il was argued that, although the com

a capitalization Of $2,OOO,O0O' the as
