Turkeys total war debt, according
to the "Frankfurter Zeitung," amounts
to 230 million pounds $3.50 million dol
lars), and together with the loans the
government had made during the Bal
kan wars she owes at present 1913 mill
ion pounds Gone Turkish pound equals
about four dollars). Of this sum,
Turkey owes Germany 200 million
pounds (S800,00O,00O), and Austria 40
million pounds.
Discussing the Turkish budget for
1918, the "Frarkfurter Zeitung" writes:
Together with the extraordinary
military expenses, the deficit during the
coming year will amount to IA million
pounds and will have to be covered
from the finances in regard to which
been negotiating in Berlin. For the
first six months of 1918 the loan will
amount to 361s millions; of this sum
millions will be obtained in Germany
in the form of Turkish purchases; the
rest, 80 u millions, will be by means of
$50 loan in Constantinople
The expenses Of the year 1918 up
to the present amount to 1923 million
pounds; the total war expenses, incIud-
ing the war materials and military
supplies purchased in Berlin, will
amount to 23O millions. This sum, to-
gether with the 1856 million pounds
which Turkey owed before the begin
ming of the present war, raises the
total Turkish war debt to 38S million
pounds. The loans which Turkey has
hitherto made in Germany amount to
200 millions, in Austro- Hungarian
banks to 10 millions, but the sums
which Germany has actually paid out
to Turkey amount only to 70 millions.
they will soon after the war be able
to pay back their debt to Germany"

/ n d us trial


The extreme nervousness which fol-
lowed the renewal of price-hxing talk
in the cotton market late on Friday had
evidently subsidized overnight and prices
recovered about half their losses. There
was enough irregularity to suggest that
sentiment was still confused or unset
tied, but trade interests were particu-
larly good buyers of near months and
there was active covering by many of
Fridays sellers. Late deliveries were
held back by the favorable average of
crop and weather news, but responded
partially to the near-month strength,
with the general list closing firm at
net advance of 20 to 38 points.
The attention of the trade seemed to
be pretty we'll divided between the
uncertainties of the pricc-fxing propo-
sition, the strength of the spot markets
and the favorable weather news. But
the heavy selling of late Friday had
left the market in a better technical
position and the trend of prices was
decided by the renewal of trade de-
mand. The market opened at an adj
vance of to II points, sold "a to 80
points net higher in the late trading
and closed within or points of the
best.
Various opinions were expressed
around the ring as to the probable out
come Of the conference which is sched-
uled for next Wednesday between rep
resentatives Of the cotton goods trade
and the War Industries Board. 1t was
recalled that two or three weeks ago
members of the cotton goods trade
went to Washington to discuss the
price situation, with view to devils
ing means for checking runaway mar
ket. No action was taken. Since then
there have been further advances in
cotton goods. and it is also believed
that the government is about to place
further enormous orders for equipping
vastly increased armies. There was
nothing to throw any further light
upon the objects of the conference or
the policies likely to be adopted than
was afforded by the announcements
received late on Friday.
Some in the raw cotton trade felt
that there might be definite price fixing
for goods, applying to both government
and civilian business; others felt that
price fixing might apply only to gov
eminent purchases, and still others
that regulation of profits and control
of distribution was more likely than
more drastic measures. Aside from
this, it was pointed out that most lines
of goods are selling far above parity
with raw material, and it is generally
understood that additional legislation
would be necessary before prices on
raw cotton can be fixed arbitrarily
Good rains were reported in the CEN
trail belt and parts of the West, and
weekend crop reviews were generally
favorable

leadership, gaining IL points on
steady accumulation, including sew
cral large individual blocks.
Shippings and petroleum were
next in favor, Marine preferred
Atlantlc-Gulf, Texas Company and
Royal Dutch leading those groups.
Rails made up in strength what
they lacked in activity, Canadian
Pacific, Union Pacific, Reading and
other investment shares gaining l
to ga points.
Harvester issues, American To-
bacco, Industrial Alcohol and Dis
tlllers featured the specialties at ad-
vances of 2 to S points, maximum
quotations ruling at the close.

The outside steel market continues
quiet, but improved traffic conditions
are sending a greater volume of steel
into consumption on specifications.
Federal requirements, especially for
ship steel, promise to be exceptionally
heavy during the next few months. In
the meantime priority will be given
plates over all other steel, and pro-
ducers have been asked to be prepared
to deliver 100 per cent of orders.
The mills are now turning out a gen
eral tonnage heavier than ever before,
but the government will consume over
rs per cent of the production.
The output of pig iron during March
was considerably increased over the
first two months of the year, but the
production for the quarter fell far be-
low that for the like period of 1917.

quiries indicated a steadily growing
demand with no iron to satisfy. Not
withstanding increased operations, the

up over the third and fourth quarters.
Many foundries have been obliged to
close for want Of iron, and others are
operating from day to day as mate
rial arrives.
Receipts of coke have improved, but
have been somewhat irregular and in
sufficient to meet requirements.
Lead is quieter and easier than a
week ago. Spot stocks in New York
have practically disappeared, but ar
rivals have been sufficient to provide
for the needs Of consumers.
The production and distribution of
copper are about equally balanced, and
the market is one of routine.

Wheat.-Splendid rains over the en-
tire wheat belt west of the Mississippi
pi River extending from the Gulf to
the Canadian border, were looked upon
as highly favorable for the best in
terests of the new wheat crop. Ap-
rarently the crop is getting started
under unusually auspicious conditions
and, while many things may yet hap
pen before the wheat is harvested,
every gain at this time is just so much
IN favor of large harvest. Receipts
at primary points continued light
throughout the week and apparently
farmers are not marketing their grain
with any more freedom. although the
efforts of the food administration to
bring about improvement in this re-
spect may become evident next week.
Corn.-lnterest in the corn market is
centred almost entirely on the pro-
posed new contract in the West, where
TIE Chicago Board of Trade was vot-
ing on the question of radical change.
The new contract provides for the de-
livery of No. corn containing 1876 per
cent Of moisture and also removes the
maximum price. Trading in this con-
tract, however, will not be inaugurated
until some future date, to be decided
upon by the board, and will not affect
the old contract. 1t seemed to be the
prevailing impres that trading will
be started in either the June or July
position and that the price will be
somewhere around $1.4O. 1t was also
believed that under these conditions
the price of the May position is likely
to go to the maximum figures of S1.28,
and on this theory commission houses
and shorts were good buyers.

was divided between the good cash de-
mand both for domestic use and for ex-
port and the favorable prospects for
the new crop. The market on Satur-
day was feverish and, after moving
ncrvously within a range of about %c,
closed 1sc to 1ac net higher. Splendid
rains occurred over a large part of the
oats raising states and some leading
traders are inclined to believe prices
will decline, because they think farmers
will sell their old crop before the new
is available. Reports that Chicago will
vote on a new contract in short time
had tendency to discourage selling,
however, and there was a tendency to
even-up outstanding accounts.
