FRENCH HALT TEUTON
THRUSTS AT VERDUN

fAflS, July 10.
Repeated and violent attacks by the
enemy in fruitless attempts to recapture
ground gained in yesterdays French drive
around Nerdun was reported in today's
official statement. The Germans bonn
barded Verdun positions violently, and
throughout the night sent their attacking
waves against the new line held by Cen
eral Petain's men. The enemy lost heav-
lily and gained nothing. Around Cerny the
War Office reported violent artillery bat
ties. In the Argonne German raids were
repulsed.
The German Crown Prince is back where
he started more than a year ago trying to
take Nerdun. Dispatches from the front to-
day, describing the full extent of the VIC
tory achieved in the French drive on the
left bank Of the Meuse, showed that tho
French had retaken all the ground gained
around Hin 3O4 in the German attacks Of
June 2S-29.

New cotton crops were stcadier in the
afternoon. largely in sympathy with the
strength Of old contracts, which were up "a
to 30 points on scattered covering. Business
continued quiet and local with much switch
ing
July was offered at 15O points over Oc-
tober. Predictions were made that October
would sell at n much greater premium over
the winter months unless freight traffic
conditions improved materially.
Cotton had one Of the quietest openings
TN many weeks, with the smallest initial
price variations The market started
steady In tone at a decline Of to 10 points
and Immediately turned firm on covering
and trade demand
A considerable part Of the early business
was In switches between December and
January. At the end Of the first twenty
minutes prices showed net rise of 0 to / ?
points, except July, which ruled heavy under
scattered liquidation. At 1870 n slight
reaction set in, but not enough to pull the
figures below yesterdays close.
Receipts at the ports for the day were
estimated at 5000 hales, against 1913 bales
last week and l1,201 bales last year.
Cotton is being inspected here right along.
An average Of about 433 bales a day has
been passed since the first Of the month.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany sent three representatives to the hear
ing to ask that the right be reserved to con-
fer later with the city officials and with the
commission over the detailed plans for
carrying the Chestnut street line over the
tracks and train shed of the railroad at
Twenty-fourth and Market streets
George II. Stein counsel for the company
said there was no objection on the part of
the railroad to the construction Of the line
The other representatives Of the company
were H. r. Talcott, assistant chief engineer
and p, @. Lang, Of the bridge department.
COST AND ROUTE OF TUBE
Director Twining in explaining the plans
for the Chestnut street line said that it
would cost about S9,O0O,OOO, irrespective Of
real estate, which must be purchased to
obtain "A right Of way at each end
The estimated cost Of this real estate, he
said, he was unable to give at this time
II Is probable that this item would run
very high since II Is the plan, il the line
Is constructed, to run over private right Of
way from the west bank of the Schuylkill
River diagonally to about Thrtieth and
Walnut streets, where ii will connect with
the Darby a." and at the other end of
the line to use a similar right or way from
about Second and Chestnut streets to Front
and Arch streets the point of connection
with the Frankford line.
The line, which would be about mile
and half in length. would be elevated at
each end, running a subway from about
Second to Twenty-secCnd, under Chestnut
street. At present there is only $4,000, 900
available for its construction, and, even
should the city desire to begin work In the
near future, il would first be necessary to
have the voters authorize an additional loan.

cusion OF the hearing that the commission
would take up the applications for consid-

tive session before the summer recess will
