Heavy Tax on War Profits

The Hague, The Netherlands. May 29.-(Specia1.) )-According to bill which has just been sent to The Neth- er1ands council of state every Dutch man who has been fortunate enough to increase his annual income by reason of the war by sSo00 or more will. it is understood. contribute quarter of such increase, viz. 5000 out of $S0O0, to the public revenues. On smaller increases the percentage payable Is proportion ately lower. An incras of $400 Is free of such tax. Above that the tax per centage begins at per cent and in- creases by 1 per cent for every extra $400 up to the maximum of 25 per cent already mentioned. The levy is to be retrospective in it's action, applying to all war profits from August, 1914; the amount of such profits Is to be estab- lished by comparison with the income of 1913 Both companies and private individuals are to be subject to the tax. It is impossible to estimate with any exactness the resulting revenues, but the finance minister, Dr. Anton van Gym, puts these at $1S,000,000. In view however, the enormous profits which shipowners and many other commercial and industrial concerns have been mak- ing in the past IS months, it is thought that the yield may turn out to be much higher than that amount.

ADVANCE NOTED IN
 COTTON MARKETS
uEL[C~xyvr"T7"T~-- Liverpool Cables Somewhat Disappointing and Open
 ing Was Irregular

New York, June 1o.-There was quite a sharp advance in the cotton
 market here this morning with De- cember contracts selling up to 13.17c
 or point above the best price touched on the bulge of, Wednesday and prac- tically s2 per bale above the low level
 of last week. Slight reactions occurred later, but closing prices were within
 3 or points of the best with the tone
 steady at net gains of from to s
 points for the day.
 Liverpool cables were somewhat dis
 appointing and the opening here was
 irregular, first prices being points
 lower to 1 point higher. Liverpool was buyer to undo straddles. however.
 while there was also scattered cover ing by local and New Orleans traders and prices quickly advanced in the absence of any important offerings. July contracts sold up to 12.s6c. De- tober to 13c and January to 1S.24c dur ing the middle of the morning. with the general list showing net gains of some to Il points. At these prices the demand slackened and there were moderate reactions in the later trading as a result of realizing. Private cables reported quiet market in Liverpool with little straddle and hedge sell ing and also said that there had been some selling on the breaking of the
 monsoon in India. Ordinarily favor able monsoon is considered with refer ence to the probable buying by India,
 but today's cables suggested that 1t had been taken bearishily as bearing upon new crop prospects. Prospects for unsettled weather in the western belt were hardly a factor, as nothing more than thundershowers were forecast and while there was some talk around the ring to the effect that the great mi1i- tary activity abroad might hasten peace, most traders attributed the ad- vance to covering for over the week end and the failure of favorable crop news to bring in heavier selling from the south. The amount of cotton on shipboard awaiting clearance showed a falling off of about 10000 bales for the week, but the bullish figures other wise may have been a factor in the early advance. The continued covering by Liverpool stradd1e shorts was con- sidered due to the easier ocean freight situation and according to some of the spot people here it is possible to ship cotton to Liverpool at the present rates at a profit.
 Port receipts today 6s2S bales. For the season. 7,159,255; exports today, 9467; for the season, 5,149,001; stock, 963.556.

ARMEN|ANS HELP
 FIGHT THE TURKS
Giving Valuable Assistance to Russians in Present
 Campaign

London, May 20.-(Special CorFe-
 spondence.)-T great European war
 has famed into flame the desire for
 national freedom in those small ha-
 tions which have been longing to cast
 off the yoke of subJection under which
 they have been held by powerful and
 interruptions suzeraine, and in no case
 has national feeling risen to so high pitch as in that of Armenia. An in-
 dustrious and peace loving nation, she
 has been ground down and persecuted for centunies by the Turk. whose dire vengeance for refusal to be subservient
 has, within the last 12 months, we'll
 nigh brought about the extermination
 of the race in the Turkish empire.
 The two great parties-the Dashnak-
 fists and the Hentchakists-had,h how
 ever, brought together a sufficient
 nucleus of trained irregular fighting
 men, who were utilized at various times in doing marvels towards the suppress sion of local oppression of Turks and
 Kurds When the present war broke out Armenians were not slow In joining
 the regular armies of the western and eastern allies. Apart from these. the members of the irregular bands, or vol unteers, rapidly rose until they reached between 10000 and 30,00o men, under such leaders as Vartan, Andra- nix, Hamazasp and others. Their sphere lay for the most part in north ern Persia and eastern Anatolia, and they assisted materially the Russian advance into the Turkish provinces bordering on Transcaucasia They acted as the advance guard and did valuable reconnoitering work in a coun- try which they knew thoroughly. The Armenian volunteers were. indeed, she first to enter Van in the relief of the be1eaguered Armenian garrison of that place, when it withstood heroically the onslaught of the Turks on the first oc- casion of it's capture.

COTTON DISPLAYS
 VERY STEADY TONE
Market Opens at Decline, But Firms Up. to
 Steadiness

New Orleans, June 10.-A very steady tone was displayed by cotton on this market today. A sharp bulge occurred immediately after the opening call, which carried prices 7 to g points above yes- terday's close. Heavy buying for Liver pool account, a large volume of cover ing on the part of the local shorts and fresh buying for long account created a demand which the ring found difficulty in meeting, although there was much talk about favorable weather conditions The market closed at net rise of to z points.
 First prices were at slight decline on poor cables, the most active months going to net decline of to 8 points on the opening call The market quickly firmed up and thereafter displayed con- siderable strength.
 Floor gossip said much of the long buy ing was done on the idea that trouble with Mexico was probable, and that it would prove to be a bullish factor if it should come. Liverpool buying was gen. erally ascribed to the reversing of strad- dle trades.
 Weather conditions over prac acticallv the entire belt were generally considered very favorable, but they led to little selling
