 (Slgned) "Solf,
 State Secretary Of
 Foreign office "
 All official Washington was at a complete loss to understand the text Of the note becoming public in this way. Neither the state department nor the Swiss legation which is lok ing after German interests had receiy- ed the reply and it was very evident that 1t had been made public through a faux pas There was however, no attempt to dispute its authenticity and The diplomats 10 whom the dispatch should have been sent could on'y ex- press regret that the despatch had been made public Early this even ling the newspaper correspondents were summoned by telephone to the offices of the diplomatic mission where many diplomatic dispatches are re- ceyed every day An attache there gave out copies of the dispatches in the regular way, bearing the usual dis tinguishing marks. It was at once flashed to the country.
 When the high officials of the or- idce leaTnel that the dispatch had been made public their distress and 'legret was almost boundiess as much as they were gratined by its aprar- ent contents.
 The contents of the despatch were at once communicated to Secretary Lansing and other officials of tho eoyement President Wilson was in New York and the contents or the des- Ipatch were communicated to him there
 It is very probable that the text of the official eommunstation may -liffor in some respects as to verbiage from the unofficial copy given out tonight, but it is regarded as highly improbable that 1t will show any SUD- stantial differences.
 At the first reading, the text would ,seem to answer in q manner which might lead to peace, all the questions Of President Wilson asked of Chan celol MaXimihan in his inquiry which | was sent as an answer to the German peace note received here last Mon- day
 | In this inquiry the president declar- ed he would not propose an armistice while troops Of the central powers re- mained on invaded soil; ne asked whether Prince Maximilian accepted the terms of peace so laid down or merely wanted to discuss them "as a basis for negotiations and finally he asked whether the chancellor merely represented the militarisis who have been conducting the war
 These inquiries, the German gov ernment seems to answer in q man. ner which at least has not closed the ldoor to peace.

New Orleans, Aug. 3-The continued
favorable war news caused heavy buy
ing in the cotton market today. on
which prices rose az to 81 points in the
first half hour of trading. Buyers
found offerings scanty. Bullish senti-
ment was increased by the absence OF
rain in the western belt and more rain
in the Atlantics, from which section
there have been complaints of excessive
moisture.
Spot cotton quiet and unchanged.
Sales on the spot 60 bales; to arrive
none. Low middling $500; MlddIine
27.75; Good middling 1918
The market became a runaway affair,
constantly squirting to new high levels
and reaching its highest prices toward
the close. when the trading months
were 14S to i56 points over the final
figures of yesterday. While buying for
long account was heavy, the demand
from shorts was urgent and rumor had
it that at least one huge line of short
contracts was being covered at the adj
vance.
Cotton closed feverish at an advance
of i3i to 1873 points.

tons up into new high ground for the
present bull movement October sold
early at 26.S5 and December 26.35 on
heavy covering due to bullish weather
conditions all over the belt. Active
Liverpool buying was in evidence and
there was also buying for Southern
and other outside accounts
The biggest advance of the season
came just before the close following
the detailed reports of heavy rains in
the eastern belt which shot Oct. up to
2770 and Dec. to 27i5, equivalent to
an advance on these positions of>sbout

And accused you of setting UP al

And they smiled when your name was

With empty eyes upturned to an I'M
