RAILROAD EARNINGS.

The complete statement for June Of
United States railroads making weekly
returns to "Dun's Review" reflects sub
stantial Improvements in railroad
traffic over year ago. the total
amounting to S3s,954,124, an increase
of 1861 per cent as compared with the
same month last year. Practically the
same roads reported a gain over 1915
IN May OF 22.2 per cent and in April Of
1877 per cent, while az compared with
June, 1914, when railroad earnings
were at the maximum for that period,
tEere is an increase of approximately
II per cent. A notably encouraging
feature is that almost without excep-
ton the leading systems included in
this statement report larger returns
than ever before for this period, which
indicates that the extensive movement
of freight incident to the active bust
ness now prevailing is not confined to
any particular sections.

ADVANCES
AS SHORTS COVER
Reports of Heavy Rains Fol-
lowed by Moderate Gains
in Prices.

While unfavorable weather news
failed 10 inspire any general or az
gressive buying, il served TO restrict
offerings, and there was enough scat
tered covering to cause moderate ad-
vances in the cotton market. Deem
Der contracts, for instance, sold up TO
1920, or 7 points above Fridays clos
ing figure, ard closed at 1880, with
the general list closing steady at net
gain of to points.
The market opened steady at un-
changed prices TO an advance Of
points, paying practically no attention
to somewhat Disappointing cables. and
active months sold about 4 TO s points
net higher during the early trading.
Reports Of heavy rains in the Atlantic
states and Of cloudourst over North
ern Mississippi seemed TO be chiefly
responsible for the scattering local
demand, but there was some realizing,
which became a little more active on
the official forecasts for generally
clearing weather, and prices eased of
slightly during the middle of the morn
ing. Later the market firmed up again
on the official weather details showing
sensationally heavy rainfall in the
Carolinas.
The Weather Bureau reported that
the disturbance in the Caribbean Sea
was still central near Santo Domingo,
and a possibility that Mondays ad-
vices might indicate that it was NOV
ing toward the gulf probably figured
somewhat in the uneasiness OF scatter
ing local shorts. There was nothing
in the trading either yesterday or ear
lier in the week 70 indicate any change
in the attitude of Southern spot hold
ers, who seem determined TO secure
prices above a parity with present con-
tract quotations or TO carry their cot
ton forward. Some scattered Southern
selling during the week has been at
tributed TO hedging against prospective
crops, but offerings of this sort have
been limited, and while the price COM
pared with previous years of this sea-
son may seem attractive, the absence
of pressure from Southern sources is
considered by many traders as indi-
eating continued confidence in the ulti-
mate outlet. The amount of cotton on
shipboard awaiting clearance al the
close Of the week showed an increase
of about $4,000 bales as compared with
figures for the same time last year.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and unchanged at l2.95c for mid
cling uDIdnu.
Southern spot markets were tele-
graphed as follows: Galveston steady,
unchanged at l3.75c; sales, 928 bales.
New Orleans quiet, unchanged at 13c;
sales, 400 bales. Savannah quiet, I'M
