COMPROMISE DENIED
No Settlement Of Western Pacific
UncoIlected Judgment

New York, Sept. 5.-Rumors of y
compromise settlement Of the $35 .OOO,-
600 uncollected judgment obtained in
1917 by the Equitable Trust Company,
as trustee for Western Pacific Railroad
bondholders, against the Denver and
Rio Grande Railroad were denied yes
terday by Alvin W. Krech, president
of the Equitable and chairman of the
Western Pacific board. He said:
mo negotiation, direct or indirect,
relating to a settlement has taken
place. Further, no suggestion of this
character has arisen since the final ad-
Indication of the case in the courts"
The Judgment was obtained in the
Federal District Court following a de-
fault by the Denver and Rio Grande
of interest on a $4,000, 900 Western
Pacific bond issue which it had guar
anteed. In an appeal the Supreme
Court upheld the decision.
1t is understood a small part of the
Judgment has been collected and that
further steps were blocked when the
government took over the carriers in
1917.

New York, Sept. 5.---The cotton
market had a fairly steady opening
today, but lacked support other than
what was furnished by scattered cover
ing orders. First prices were 1 to II
points higher on near and . to points
lower on late months. q
Subsequently the market sold 10 to IL
points under the previous close, due to
further liquidation and southern selling
induced by an almost perfect weather
map.
The demorAized condition of sterling
exchange promoted fresh selling around
10 rs o'clock, at which time the mar
ket was about 20 points net lower,
representing new low levels for the
present downward movement.
The market later turned firmer and
during the middle of the morning sold
about 10 to 10 points above last night S
closing figures.
There was local huying in the ex =
pectation of rally after the big break
yesterday and also covering for over the
week end, which absorbed further scat
tering liquidation and southern hedge
selling.
The receipts at the ports for the Gay
are estimated at 5000 bales, com
pared with 1876 bales a week ago, and
1S,147 bales year ago.

Chicago, Sept. 5.-Buying of corn
was of q, much better character today.
as compared with\ recent sessions, and
the market developed frmness after fur
ther losses had been sustained in the
initial dealings. Traders we're inclined
to play for reaction, although all
bulges met selling. The volume of busi-
ness was not large.
1t was the opinion generally that
most of the bearish news had been dis
counted by the recent severe declines.
The demand for the cash article showed
some Improvement, but the purchasers
did not appeas to be inclined to antici-
pate future needs. Reports from New
York said that cash handlers there had
few orders.
Shipments from the United States for
the week were 1873 .606 bushels; for the
season they aggregated 66l $50 bushels.
A local authority said that the Amer
ican corn crop is maturing rapidly and
much of it is out of the way of frost.
Oats also were stronger on good buy
ing by commission houses and covering
by shorts induced by the upturn in corn.
The advance followed an irregular start.
Offerings were light. Cash oats followed
the rise in futures with domestic
request for the actual article factor.
Shrinkage in the crop checked bearish
operations. There was no appreciate
increase in offerings from the country.
