JULY CONTRACTS GO. ID TOP PRICES IN
 COTTON TRAO|N t.
August Made Big Dip and Closed 140 Points Below Thursdays Closing
 Quotations
By Assoc iated Prcss

New York July $.-Shorts paid top prices for July contracts again in to- days cotton market and that delivery wound up it's career at 1e o'clock with number of sales at S.75c, which equaled Thursdays high record. The rest of the market developed weakness again and at one time sold 45 to 60 points under the previous close. Late rallies on weekend covering left the market finally steady at a net decline of l5 to 70 points. with the exception of August, which closed 140 points below Thursdays close
 The opening was irregular. Southern selling, partly absorbed by Liverpool and New Orleans, later broke october to S304c and December to 31.30c, from which rallies of 40 points occurred dur ing the forenoon. Around this level the selling pressure became quite general,
 inspired by a prediction for less show cry weather in the belt and the report of southern crop authority making condition 5e.5, with an indicated yield of 100000 bales.
 The weakness of exchange and se- we're decline at New Orleans in the aft ernoon promoted d good deal of selling by room traders, which was poorly ab- sorbed until the covering orders devel- oped near the close. The notices issued today were the heaviest of the month, two firms alone rendering 1000 bales.

New Orleans. July 2S.-Political news played an important part in today's trading in cotton and the market broke to it's lowest levels following the re- ports printed at midday that all Flu rope was alarmed over the bolshevili successes. At the lowest the trading months were 5s to s6 polnts under the final prices of yesterday, with Octo- Der at S1.90c. Closing prices were at net losses of 30 to A points. Just on the close shorts took profits and their buying of covers caused sharp rally.
 Rains in the belt overnight, heavy in some localities, were responsible for steadiness in the early trading. but after advances of 8 to i2 points around the opening on, the strongest months the market ran into too much selling and promptly broke. the monsns under most pressure losing over half cent pound.
 This selling was due in some meas- ure to uneasiness over the foreign po- litical situation and the slump in for eign exchange but some of it was caused by yesterdays high private bu- by shorts checked the decline for a while but later 1t was resumed again with more force than ever.
 In the late trading the market was excited and the uproar of selling lasted almost to the close. As has been the case for several days, the trading was almost altogether l.. the new crop months, July being inactive.

Stewart & White

New Orleans, July 2S.-The improve ment in the crop progress and the con tinued unfavorable foreign news again told on cotton prices today and if it had not been for fair buying orders from Liverpool the decline possibly would have gone further The National Ginners figure of 76.5, which is SUD- posed to be their official condition re- port, indicated crop around 100000 If the government confirms this it will be difficult to hold the market, par tcularly as nobody seems kindly dis posed toward the long side of cotton over 30c. Bears pointed out that, allow ing for a condition of 70 at the end of August, the indication would be 13,340,oo0 bales July New York went out quietly at 4S.75c, it's highest point, which was a record on the New York exchange
 The outlook is for lower quotations, but a large interest is accumulating, which may turn the market upwards for a cent or two at any time, like 1t did two weeks ago.-Stewart X White

DUNN'S REVIEW

New York. July 2s,--Duns tomorrow will say:
 An early breaking of the present lulI in business does not appear to be ia prospect, but some recent develop ments in the situation have been of constructive character. The improve ment in the principal crops. which are faring better than had previously seemed proba ble is a favorable augury for the future and the railroad wSge award if accepted by all the work CTS will remove one element of uncertain- ty. and may lead to quicker relief from the serious congestion in transpor- tation. Multiplying evidence of price yielding. moreover. cannot be properly regarded as other than encouraging for prices that had risen beyond all preceded had marked an unnatural and condition. and could not fail 10 ultimately diminish consumptive buying. While some questioning is still heard as to the genuineness of the current reaction, yet the downward movement. if not embracing every i'm portant article, has steadily gained momentum in such lines as textiles and hides and leather among others and 1t is clear that many prospective cus- toners continue to hold off for further concessions.

New York. July 3.-(SpeciaD. John J. Mitchell, chairman of the board of the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank of Chi cago. has voiced a sentiment many times expressed in the financial district of New York, although not so publicly as MT. Mitchell has done. He is quoted as having said that the refunding of the entire national debt and the reduction of tax burdens are in his view matters of vital importance and should receive the early attention of the next Congress.
 Mir. Mitchell is of the opinion that bonds issued in amount sufficient to take up the entire national debt except ing possibly that part of the debt which was in existence when the European war began. should have a life of a least fifty years and should carry from to 5h per cent interest
 If there were a complete funding of our national debt into bonds of this kind the immediate effect. MT. Mitchell says. would be to add greatly 10 the sliquid assets of the federal reserve banks Furthermore. he is persuaded that if the debt were thus funded the credit strain which the national and state banks are now bearing would be greatly relieved
 All this is in accord with sentiment or suggestions which have been fre- quently made in the financial district since early spring. Some have thought that the bonds might well have longer life than fifty years and carry not more than , per cent interest, but the pre- vailing opinion seems to be that if the funded bonds were issued for a fifty year life and carried 5la per cent inter- est they would be speedily absorbed. When asked whether the public would absorb them or men of large capital seeking safe and profitable investment. the answer almost invariably made is this: The savings banks of the United States will become heavy purchasers of bonds ~of this kind. In that way the savings of the people would be invested in longtime and absolutely safe bonds bearing a remunerative rate of interest for the banks. Furthermore the insur- ance corporations, many of the banks and the trustees of large funds would be tempted to make investment in these bonds so that the presumption is that within a comparatively short time after the bonds were issued they will be ab- sorbed and the only consideration the government would thereafter be com pelled to give to them would be the ap- necessary to meet the in- terest upon the bonds.
 It would be necessary to provide for a sinking fund whereby in fifty years or even less these bonds could be liaui- dated. Sometimes it has been said that funded bonds could be floated bearing 5 or 51a per cent interest behind which stood a sinking fund sufficient to wipe

Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Press


 New York July 23-The cotton mar ket emerged from it's rut of dullness toward the close of the present week and developed some sensational features the first of which was an advance in July contracts under the spur of cover ing orders from belated shorts to 43 75c which was the highest price ever paid for a futures contract on domestic ex- changes, and exceeding by 57 points the high record attained by March contracts on March 23, last. But while this forced new crop deliveries experienced a vio- lent decline, which carried prices off about Sll bale in two days Princi- pally responsible for this pronounced weakness in the late positions was the report of a southern crop authority, making condition 76.5 and indicating a crop of 130O0,000 bales. Coming on top of showery weather conditions ali the week. which had created a very bullish sentiment among traders the, idea that boil weeYil damage had been great ly stimulated and finding the market considerably oyerbought. this news pre- cipitated more or less demoralzed sell ing under which the market collapsed reaching it's lowest levels on Friday ihe oeariSn SpiFlt when developed was further increased by reports of cur tailment on the part of New England mills, weakness in foreign exchange, and rumors of a financial and economic crisis iii China, attended by the bank ruptcy of two cotton yarn houses With the next government report so near at hand there was a feeling among traders that bullish crop ideas would have to be materially modified. as it now looks al q tbonQh thp pr fr not far from an average for this date It now seems evident that the crop is in better shape than expected and sen timent at the close of the week was very unsettled, with the tendency bear. sh in consequence

Thomson, Parker & Co.

New Orleans, July 23.--Severe selling pressure was felt by cotton today du- ring the greater part of the session, part of it resulting from the National Ginners' condition figures of 76.4, but much of it being due to the very un favorable trend of European political and conditions the the alarm now in allied capitals over the continued suc- cess of the bolsheviki in Poland. The wide breaks in foreign exchange rates made the political news all the more effective as d market feature.
 In the early trading there was a very brief period when the market was up on reports of heavy rains at number of points in the interior, but after the strongest months were 3 to 37 points up the market weakened and com menced to sag all along the line. There were many partial recoveries during the day, but the market always re- sponded when offerings increased. Late in the day the trading months were 5S to SC points under yesterdays close with October trading at 31.90c.
 The. close showed net losses of 30 to 4f points.
 With prospects of a bearish July condition report from the government on August and the greater part of Europe suffering from political un- rest, the advantage is with the short side for the time being at any rate.-- Shepard & Gluck.

BEARISH OUTLOOK PRESSED ALL VALUES
 IN THE CHICAGO PIT
By Associated Press

Chicago, July 23.--Bearish crop esti- mates tended to press all grain values today notwithstanding the black rust peril. Wheat closed heavy. F to 1c net lower Corn finished unchanged to 1ac down, oats off F to 1c and provisions varying from Pc decline to Tic ad- vance.
 A bearish crop estimate by an expert whose figures of late have been near the government figures together with reports of soaking rains in western Canada, led to a change of sentiment regarding wheat and more than offset an earlier advance due to sultry moist conditions likely to increase damage by black rust.
 Corn and oats, like wheat, declined as result of hearish crop estimates.
 Provisions overaged lower in the absence of any aggressive support.
