MODERATE IF TING
 OF PRICES CAUSED BY CENSUS REPORT
This Weeks Market Will Wait on Weather and Po-
 litical Developments

New Orleans July 15.-The cotton market averaged over range of some thing more than a cent a pound last week, standing at It's best 65 to 80 points over the previous weeks close and at it's lowest 20 to 50 points under. The close was at a net advance of 8 points to a net loss of points.
 Drouth in Texas and high tempera- lures over the western belt generally were the main stimulating influence. Political news was at times construed favorably but, on the whole, had an unsettling effect and the trade also was in an uncertain frame of mind regard ing regulations and restrictions to be imposed on this country's export trade with neutrals.
 Prices were lifted moderately on the weekend by the census bureau report showing consumption among American mills during June of 65S,S36 bales of cotton and linters combined.
 This week the market will be in the position of waiting on weather and political developments. Continued dry weather in Texas would work for a higher range of values. In it's present frame of mind the trade will accept favorably further news of internal political troubles in Germany.
 Increased int@est will be taken In the new crop because of the movement of new bales and the likelihood that this week will witness receipts at sew eral points in Texas There is divis- ion of opinion as to how the first of ferings of new crops spots will be re- ceived. bullish traders being of the idea that they will be greedily absorbed while bearish traders think they will only be marketed at lower price than have prevailed.

VARIOUS REASONS
 GIVEN FOR SHORT INTEREST IN STOCKS
Trading on Larger Basis But Almost Entirely at
 Expense of Values
By Hop"

New York, July 15.-Uncertainty re- specting the attitude of the federal au- thorities toward the country.s leading industries, recurrence of high call money rates after a week of ease, peace reports of a varid and persistent char acter and signs of a partial check in important branches of trade furnished the short interest in the stock market with plenty of ammunition during he week.
 The agreement between government officials and steel manufacturers was regarded as provisional at best but the terms accepted by the producers were in themselves taken as an indi- cation that the government intends to restrict profits to moderate propor- ions.
 Trading in stocks was on a larger and broader basis, but the expansion was effected almost entirely at the ex- pense of values. War shares suffered the greatest shrinkage and specialties also were unsettled
 Growing realization of the advant- ages accruing to the transportation companies from recent rate decisions anu tiiO iACi PtOAhiSih5 NicP oNtioOh were of distinction to railroad shares Steamship stocks were affected by the Presidents allusion to prevailing high ocean freight rates.
 Sentiment was undoubtedly affected by the steady attrition in the price of liberty bonds, which fell to 99 3S-50 for regular lots and as low as s9 for an off lot.
 Remittances to foreign centers were less favorable to this market, sterling advancing slightly over it's fixed quota tions of many months with a stiffen- ing of francs, rubles and llres.

GOVERNMENT SHIP
 PROGRAMME HAS BEARING ON STEEL
Pig Iron Sales Reduced 50 Per Cent-2,OOO,OOO Tons
 Steel Required

New York, July 15.-The most inter- esting development in the. steel indus- try is the pushing of the government programme for the building of ships
 and railroad equipment, which will re- quire approximately 100000 tons of
 steel bars, plates and shapes. Accord ing to Washington reports contracts
 for s0,000 freight cars and 2000 loco-
 motives will be speedily distributed among builders. It is estimated that S0O,0O0 tons of steel will be needed for
 cars and 100000 tons for locomotives. The announcement that the emerg- ency fleet corporation will have two shipbuilding plants constructed for the government to be utilized for the building of 400 fabricated steel ships,
 means to the steel trade that the ship ways will probably require 12000 tons of structural steel and that the build ing of the boats will require about S0O,O00 tons of steel plates and shapes. The placing of large railroad equip ment orders has been an encouraging development. indicating that the steel companies are prepared to meet com
 mercial as well as government re- quirements.
 lHe Amerlcan steel and Wire com pany has notified customers that here after only reasonable profits will be permitted on wire nails and other wire products. Independent wire manufac- turers are expected to reduce prices to the level at which government con- tracts are being filed
 The United States Steel corporation's s June statement indicated that orders
 taken by the subsidiary companies last
 month were only 745,000 tons, based
 upon shipments of 1,250,000 tons. The
 output of ingots is estimated at 1,850,-
 900 tons and of rolled products 1,3S0,000
 tons.
 Pig iron sales have been cut down
 about 50 per cent, consumers and pro-
 ducers awaiting developments at Wash-
 ington
