GERMANY PROTESTS
SAILORS NTERNMENT

AMSTERDAM. March S.-The Ger
man government has sent a note to
the Danish government protesting
against the internment OF the crew
OF the German ship, Ingotz Mendi, &C
cording to a dispatch from Berlin to-
day giving the Tsgeblatt as its au-
thority.
The Deutsche Zeitung in comment
ing upon the incident stated that
1.-The situation is serious"
According to the German press the
government regards the interment of
the German sailors as a breach of
international law.
The Ingotz Msndi was a Spanish
ship captured by the German raider.
Wolf 4 prize crew was put on
board her, but while she was en-
route for a German port she went
ashore on the Danish coast. Tho
crew was interned about ten days
ago.

Cotton

Reports Of free Southern spot offer
ings and increased hedge selling were
accompanied by severe break in the
cotton market yesterday. The opening
was higher on the strength of Liver
pool and favorable war news. but prices
soon weakened, and reached the lowest
point of the day in the late trading,
when active months showed net losses
of 1874 to 1870 points. October con-
tracts, for instance, sold at 34.92c,
making decline of 233 points from
the high record of Tuesday. That de-
livery closed at 35O2c, with the gen
eral list closing barely steady at 108
to lit points down.
The market opened firm at an ad-
vance of 5 to 10 points on buying,
which seemed to come chiefly from
Liverpool and Wall Street sources.
There was heavy Southern selling,
however, the appearance of which pro-
NOTED the tendency to take profits on
long action, and active months soon
showed net losses of 55 to 70 points.
Rallies of some 40 to so points pre-
ceded the publication of the weekly
weather report, but the market weak
cned again during the afternoon under
a renewal of Southern hedge selling and
liquidation. Stop-loss orders were un-
covered on the break of some S625 to
$3.50 per bale from Tuesdays close,
and last prices showed rallies of only
10 to Is points on covering.

Heat Causes Drop
In Pig Iron Output

Production of pig iron in the United
States during the month of August fell
about 1000 tons a day, compared with
July, according to the estimate of tn
Iron Age" Extreme heat accounted
for the decrease. The output of bias.
furnaces aggregated 3,389.5S5 gross
tons, or 109341 tons a day, against
3,420,98S tons in July, or 11O,354 tons
d day. In August, 1917, production
averaged 104,722 tons a day.
AS the Allied line moves forward in
France, says the Iron Trade Review,
redoubled efforts are being made to
speed up the production of war steel
The continued shifting of finishing
mill operations is providing more raw
steel for shell forms, ship plates anj
other primary needs. Big problems
of production and operation, however
remain on the horizon.

A survey of the ebb and flow of

A survey Of the ebb and flow of
prices on the New York Cotton Ex-
change in recent months reveals un-
precedentodly large daily huctua-
tlons. And scarcely anything preju-
dlces the critics of the future ex-
changes more than violent day-to-
day changes. The Southern plant
er. who tends to look upon Northern
cotton traders as sheer gamblers,
cannot perceive how in single day
his product can depreciate several
cents q pound in value, although he
may see nothing improper in q rise
of q like amount The managers of
the local exchange, recognizing that
unlimited fluctuations in single
day would be inimical to the nation
al war interests and highly danger
OILS to It's members, fixed 300 points
as the maximum rise or fall that is,
permitted III one session. Near
month contracts approached within
25 points of the upward margin on
! Tuesday for the second time in the
last few weeks, and yesterday, as
has frequently been the case of late
after sharp rises, there was a gen.
eral recession of more than 100
points
The recklessness with which
prices sometimes vary apparently
without reference to fundamental
changes often arouses suspicion of
manlpulatlon--a suspicion that is
not always we'll founded. The mar
rowness of the market is, no doubt,
one of the leading reasons for the
high mobility But what is more
significant is that the fluctuations
are not as great as they seem, mas
much as the present price level is
the highest in the history of the ex-
/ change, and fuctuation Of 100
points to-day is relatively less than
a variation Of SO points was when
cotton brought only Is cents a

Corporation to Help
Finance Cotton Crop
Acceptance Company VIII Be
Ready for Business
by November

Plans for cotton acceptance corpo-
ration have drawn TO d focus, and by
November fully equipped organiza-
tion will be prepared to aid in the
financing Of the 1918 crop, it was au-
thoritativcly learned yesterday.
The new corporation, which is to
have capitalization OF $4,000 900, got
a charter in the State of New York,
it was said with broad provisions for
all kinds of investment business, but
the main purpose Of the organizers is
to care for the recently stimulated
demand for new instruments for financ-
ing cotton. It viii not, however, CON
fine its acceptance business exclusively
to the cotton industry
Shares in the new enterprise, it is
understood, will sell at 10. Of the
capital, per cent will be put aside
for surplus. and 2 per cent for initial
expenses. The names of the officers
Of the corporation and the details Of
the organization viii soon be an
nounced.
The precise name Of the business is
stlll III doubt. Originally it was
planned to call it the American Ac-
ceptance Corporation, but that sugges-
tlon has been discarded, as it was con-
sldered too similar to names of corno.

u. S. May Act
To Stabilize
Cotton Prices
War Board to Name Com
mittee to Find Remedy
for Reported Shortage

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-The War
Industries Board, with the approval of
President Wilson, is soon to appoint a
committee to consider the desirability
and feasibility of effecting a stabiliza-
tion of cotton prices and other mattres
connected with handling the crop. This
was announced tonight by Chairman
Baruch.
"The announcement Of another short
crop Of cotton" said Mr.. Baruch's
statement, "rases in acute form the
problem of satisfying the needs of the
nation as we'll as those of the Allies
and of securing an equitable distribu-
ton for the purpose cf winning the
war Involved in The distribution is
the problem CT bringing shout reaeon-
able stablization of prices IL the N
terest of both the producer and con-
sumer."
Mr.. Baruch said the proposed COM
mittee will study the present cotton
situation, the problems of distribution,
the marketing of low grade cottons
and the desirability and feasibility of
effect Of stabilization OF prices" and
will begin activities as soon as possible
by holding hearings in the cotton pro-
ducing states and at such other places
as may be found necessary.

Agriculture yesterday that the severe

Council
After the departments forecast was
made public the price of cotton went up
more than $40 bale on the principal
cotton exchanges of the country. The
advance largely was maintained to- day
Proposals to fix the price of raw cot
ton have been advanced from time to
time since the government undertook
voluntary price fixing with representa-
tives of various industries, but strong
opposition has been offered by repre-
senatives Of cotton growers and mem
bers of Congress from cotton growing
states

Money and Credit

Slightly easier conditions prevailed
in the money market yesterday. The
rcdeposit with the banks of a large
portion of the heavy September l in
terest and dividend disbursements
helped the situation substantially and
made possible large offerings of call
funds. Loans against mixed collateral
We're made on call at the Stock En-
change as low as per cent during the
day. although the ruling rate for this
class of loans was per cent. Call
loans were made on industrial collat-
eral at Ga to 6h per cent Further
Withdrawals Of government funds are
expected to-day, so that it is expected
that rates will harden again
There was practically no change in

American Tobacco
To Refund Notes

New York bankers, who last Novem-
ber purchased from the American To-
bacco Company $25,000,000 ninety day
notes under a renewal arrangement by
which the notes could run for full
year, have under consideration q plan
for refunding the issue through an Of
ferlng of new serial notes of a similar
amount. Whether the securities will
be placed on public sale before the
next Liberty Loan campaign begins
rests with the Capital Issues Commit
tee, whose decision may be announced
to-day, following conference with
Harold Stanley, vice president of the
Guaranty Trust Compan who left last
night for Washington.
In addition to the Guaranty Trust
Company, the Chase Securities Com
pany and Kidder, Peabody & Co. are
interested in the projected refunding
operation. These same institutions
composed the syndicate that arranged
the credit year ago which will fall
due on November %.
In the original announcement of this
transaction it was stated that the
notes would be renewable up to Pc
rlod Of two years, each renewal to be
guaranteed by the banking syndicate.
The length of the loan, however. was
later limited to one year, as a result of
a decision by the Federal Reserve
Bank that ninety day commercial
paper, removable up to the end Of two
years, would not be accepted for re-
discount.
The money borrowed by the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company last fall was
used for the purchase of leaf tobacco
and other raw materials. Last Febru-
ary the directors began the policy of
paying the 5 per cent quarterly divi-
dends in scrip to conserve the COM
pany's cash resources.
