COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, August 26.-Early re-
actions were followed by renewed
flrmness in cotton today, and some of
the later deliveries made new high
Iecords for the movement. December
contracts sold up from 1854 to 1881
and closed at 1888, while the general
list closed steady at net advances of
to IA points
The market was extremely nervous
and unsettled during the day and par
ticularly during the early trading.
After the extraordinary advances of
the past several days some traders
were talking the possibility Of violent
reactions, and there was evidently a
disposition to realize profits for over
the week end. The market opened at
an advance of to points but quickly
eased off and active months sold about
to IL points under last nights clos
ing figures during the first few min
utes. The decline to 1850 for October
and 1853 for January represented a
reaction Of about rs points from tho
high records of Friday. and this seemed
sufficient to bring in some covering
and possibly rebuying by sold-out
longs; Trade interests were also be-
lieved to be among the buyers on the
decline. while the bullish view of new
crop conditions was encouraged by one
of the private reports indicating de-
tertoration of 5 per cent In Alabama
and of 10 to 15 per cent in Mississippi
These features seemed to check the
early selling movement, and the mar
ket sold up sharply late in the morning
with October touching 1872 and Janu-
ary 1895, while March sold at 1909, or
points above yesterdays best level
in the case of that delivery. Reports
of rising temperatures in the south
west stimulated the late buying move
ment and the close, was within or 4
points of the best Port receipts to-
day. 14,747 bales; for the season, 245,-
III bales. eyDorfs todav Ia 0h4 haIaS-
for the season. s11,242 bales; stock,

NEW ORLEANS.

NEW ORLEANS, August 26.-Against
a large volume of liquidation from the
long side to secure profits. the price of
cotton was maintained on this market
today well up toward the highest lev
els of the week. There were setbacks,
but they brought in fresh buying for
long account from the strongest class
of traders. At one time prices were
IA to 16 points over yesterdays last
quotations on the strongest months and
within a few points of the highest of
the week. March. in which trading
has not yet become as active as in the
nearer months. made new high level
for the week at 1891. On the close
tho tone was called irregular and prices
were six to nine points up net.
Owing to the high levels prices have
reached and the violent fluctuations
which have occurred recently and which
were expected to occur again in the
near future. there was gossip on the
floor today that there was a general
on foot among brokers to
call original margins of IS a bale.
A small bulge of 9 to 12 points was
recorded on the opening, the result of
overnight buying orders but the rising
soon was checked by realiz-

OF STOCK MARKET
Hottest Day of the Summer
Sees a Turnover of

STREET CANNOT BELIEVE
A RAIL STRIKE POSSIBLE
Growing Disposition to Think Con.
gress Will Take Over Full
Control of Railroads.

NEW YORK. August 26.-The latter
days of August seem to be amply full
filing the predictions and aspirations
of the stock market leaders, relative
to the inaugurating of the big Dull
movement referred to in the August
5th issue of this review. In fact, while
August, like the proverbial March,
came in like a bear. 1t is safe TO say
that it's exit, so far as the stock eN-
change is concerned. will be after the
manner of the much desired bull.
Thus, on the hottest day of the sum
mer, August %. the stock exchange
boiled and bubbled under turnover or
100000 shares, establishing new rec
ords for leading industrials, and CIV
ing the railroad shares the most proml-
nent position they have occupied for

U. S. TO HAVE GOOD FLYERS
War Department Finds This Nation
Far Behind Europe's Military
Aviation Efficiency.

Neutrality-suspicious. for the develop
ment Of military aviation under the
army appropriation act have been
worked nj by the war department
and are now being put in operation.
The scope of the plans, as indicated by
army officers, furnishes striking proof
Of a determination to approximate at
least the efficiency of the famous
French Aviation corps.
From 1911 until March 81, 1916, only
100000 was appropriated for avla-
ton ia the army. This amount does
not include the purchase price of the
first Wright machine, but represents
annual appropriations of 100000 to
S2JO.OOO for the entire service.
For the present fiscal year the war
department has S13,231 ,6GG for avla-
ton. In previous years there was no
money or very little available for pur-
chase Of machines or development of
motors The development Of military
aeroplanes progressed slowly. The
previous appropriations were eXpend-
ed in the training of officers for the
service.
Under the new law the aviation
corps is to have the following officers
One colonel, one lieutenant colonel,
eight majors, - captains and ia first
