 New Orleans, August 25-( (Special)- )-Ex- cept for a very brief period around the opening today the cotton market stood at the decline, reaching new low levels for the present bear movement and go- ing over 250 points below the level at which the market closed a week ago. The selling was partly for short account, but for the most part, appeared to come from longs who wanted to even up over the weekend. Quite little of this long cot ton was taken on in the belief that re- action from the decline was due. Late in the morning the market stood at net loss of 40 to A points. In the early trading the rise carried the market slightly above yesterdays close.
 Selling was stimulated by the decline yesterday in southern spot markets, the very good weather map this morning, that is outside of Texas

Medill Mccormick Visiting
 American Camp in France
 Comes Near Serious Injury

American Training Camp in France, August 25-Mediil Mccormick, congress- man-at-large from Illinois. who Is visit ing the American expeditionary force here, had a narrow escape from seri- ous injury Friday morning from the ex- plosion of a trench bomb nadvertent- ly thrown in his direction by a soldier practicing war maneuvers. MT. McCor- mick was following closley at the heels of a squad of trench cleaners when the bomb exploded almost at his feet, throwing stones and earth about him.
 The congressman injuries, however, consisted of nothing more than scratches on his face. Later, accompanied by Major General Sibert's aide, the visitor toured the entire camp and then re- turned to Paris.

Opportunity Big
 Practicable

The Pacific coast offers a large outlet, both for consump- tion and for export, for great deal of iron pipe and other iron and steel products of the Bir- mingham district. On the other hand, the central south, focus ing upon Mobile as a seaport, is all excellent market for the fish, grain and fruit products of the Pacific states. As the large mill ing and canning concerns on that coast own and operate their own vessels, the Panama canal and the port of Mobile are the con- meeting links for the interchange of business between the two sec tions. It is matter of getting return cargoes. There are un- questionably in this section manufacturers and distributors to whom such an interchange of tonnage would prove very profit able. As storers and forward CTS of goods, both at Birming- ham and Mobile, we are pre- pared to aid in this development and invite inquiries from those who may be interested by this announcement. The opportunity is big and feasible. Write us.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, August 25.-(Special )-Li- quidation hedges and short selling con- tinued today, forcing prices below the 2-cent level. The rallies were feeble and linconsequent and the local sentiment Is no longer in favor of high or even much higher prices. The general good crop prospect. apart from that in portion
 of Texas, has been the ruling factor and the pressing of the new crop which Is imminent, creates a supply beyond the immediate demand. While there Is pos sibility of temporary over-selling and consequent reactions, the views of the trade are shaping toward lower range of prices.
