Weekly Cotton Review

New Orleans, July 13.-Last week in the over more than cents q pound, and the close was near the top. the active months showing net gains of 211 to 233 points. July rose to 35 .55c, the highest price ever made in the history of contract trading In the early part of the week the con- tinued rains in the eastern belt were the main buying influence but highest prices were made on the announcement of the lifting of the blockade against Germany
 Larger exports. the settlement of the Lancashire mill strike, more tonnage and easier ocean freight rate and the ex- tremely favorable accounts from the dry goods market of this country contributed to the strength of the market
 This week the main thing at first will be the effect of open trading with Ger many. Bullish traders think this well stimulate the export movement, and the spot demand in the south, but bearish traders seem to be of the opinion that much cotton already has been bought in directly for German account, and that no immediate or severe buying pressure will be felt in order to supply the inn mediate needs of that country
 Weather conditions will be a feature of hardly secondary importance because ot the claims from many sections of the belt that the crop is doing better under q smaller rainfall. The weekly reports on Wednesday will probably be regarded as among the most important of the crop re- views thus far this season.
 The spot demand will be closely watched partly on account of the situation n Germany and partly because of the the ory held in some quarters that the buy ing of the actual stuff will be stimulated on the part of both English and domestic spinners now that the competition of mills
 in the central countries of Europe is to be felt once more.

SENATE DISCUSSES
TREATY AND LEAGUE
RESOLUTION CALLS ION STATE
DEPARTMENT TO FURNISH
COMPLETE TEXT.
ACRIMONIOUS DISCUSSION ON
In Course Of Debate a Bitter Attack
Was Made by Sherman Of Illinois
on President Wilson's Course.

Washington.--The peace treaty with
it's league of nations covenant was
debated for three hours in the senate,
and at adjournment the resolution
which furnished the vehicle for the
discussion went over as unfinished
business.
The resolution merely calls on the
state department to furnish the SEN
ate with the complete text of the
treaty, but as the debate progressed
discussion shifted to the merits of the
league and treaty themselves. A doZ-
en- senators, including the leaders on
both sides, were drawn into the dis
cussion and sharp exchanges presaged
the bitterness of the fight that is to
come when the treaty actually comes
up for ratification.
Senator Johnson of California, au-
thor of the resolution, started the de-
bate with a short speech charging
that the treaty supporters had some
thing to conceal"
This assertion drew an indignant
reply from Senator Hitchcock, of Me-
braska, ranking Democrat of the for
eign relations committee, who de-
clared the President was following
we'll established precedent in keeping
the treaty text in confidence, and that
for the senate to request him to do
otherwise would be ga gross breach OF
international proprieties."
In the course of the debate bitter
attack on the league covenant and on
President Wilson's course in. the peace
conference was made by Senator Sher-
man of Illinois, who earlier in the day
had presented a resolution declaring
it the sense of the senate that the
treaty and the covenant should be con-
sidered separately.

mills Of Austria were in German-Aus-
tria and Jugo-Slavia and all of this

Uniform System of Collecting
To Be. Adopted June ISt

for the convenience of those whe
might prefer to pay at office rather
than to remit by mail. The sub.
scriber would have plenty of time
to check up his toll calls and pay at
his convenience any time during the
month. If it is not paid during the
month, the next bill mailed out
will carry the arrears on it. This
second bill, carrying arrears, would
be expected to be paid in full not
later than the 10th of the month.
This maximum limit will be 40 days
from the date of the first bill; and
it payment in full is not received by
the expiration of this time the sub.
scriber will be told by the operator
when he calls central that his :'serv.
ice is suspended" Ordinarily toll
message accounts will be carried the
same as local service, as above ex-
planned; but under certain circum-
stances it will be necessary to col
lect toll messages on demand.
The foregoing plan of collecting
has been found best by those using
it, and is in general use throughout
the whole country. 1t is approved
by the North Carolina Corporation
Commission and the Interstate Cor.
poration Commission.
We wish to make the special re.
quest that your account be settled in
full during this month (May).
Trusting to receive your hearty
cooperation, we wish to remain.
