GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BELIEVES
ARKANSAS RICH IN OIL

The Geological Survey believes
that the future of South Central Ar
kansas as an oil-producing section
is extremely bright and that further
surveys should be made Immediate
ly. In a statement issued yesterday
the Survey says that the counties
of Union, Columbia and Ouachita
are especially favorably situated,
while Lafayette, Bradley, Nevada
and Ashley Counties are believed to
be equally rich.
The Survey declares that 1t has
compiled statistics which indicate
the condition of the oil industry and
the need for the immediate develop
ment of new fields.
The evidence available" it re-
ports, indicates that Southwestern
Arkansas is one of the most promi-
nent of the undeveloped regions,
and 1t is to be hoped that prospect
ing will proceed until its potentiali-
ties are fully revealed"

COTTON MARKET.

New York, Aug. 3.-Trading in
cotton was narrow today and the
market was feverish and irregular.
There was a good deal of switching
from near to distant positions, and
also liquidation by some firms that
have been advocating purchases on
recessions for some time. August
broke sharply and this together with
a readjustment of the price for the
actual at Savannah led to offerings
Of October.
Active buying OF January con-
tracts for Japanese account was a
feature at the opening and partly
responsible for an initial advance Of
s TO 20 points. The early break car
RED prices from 13 to "a points net
lower but selling by some of the
large local houses was put down to
the liquidation Of discouraged long
lines.
The late forenoon rally carried
December to 30.4z.
In the afternoon liquidation Of Oc-
tober by several firms started a
general movement and the list re-
eedsd quickly. August fell a cent
and a half under light sales induced
by Tie circulation Of a few notices.
Final quotations showed a net de-
cline Of ITS points to an advance Of
10 points
Spot here was quiet at decline
of $50 points at $3.50 cents for mid
sling; there were no sales
Spot at New Orleans was quiet
and uchanged at 1925 for rniddling;

AMERICAN COAL BEING
SOLD ITALY BY BRITAIN

British coal exporters are serving
their former Italian customers by
the purchase OF coal for Italian ac-
count in the American market, ac-
cording to authoritative reports
received by government offices here.
Buyers for British firms, it was said,
with Offices in the United States go
into the open market and purchase
coal, which is shipped in British
bottoms. Profits on the transaction
are figured more on the basis of
freight than on the resale OF the
coal at a higher price.
officials in making public the re-
port declared that with the re-
cent development OF our merchant
marine up to the point where Amer
lean bottoms are becoming adequate
to take care of our entire sea-borne
trade, there is no reason why Amer
lean coal should be sold to Italv nv

ISSUES CLOSE STRONG

New York. Aug. 13.-Announce-
ment that the Bolsheviki would
grant an armistice and that a con-
ference with Polish leaders would
be held tomorrow caused heavy
buying Of stocks IN Wall Street
today In the hope OF stopping the
decline, the banks several days ago
let out a good deal of cheap money.
The banking interests also bought
stocks Therefore today's news was
used speculatively for all it was
worth in order that prices might
be marked up as a foundation for
liquidating these stocks bought to
support the market. Tie result was
that the whole list closed net high
er, some stocks with material gains.
Final prices were but a little under
the best OF the day.
Money renewed at per cent.
which was considered remarkable
in view Of the fact that, loans carry
over till Monday. The call rate
dropped to per cent in the aft
ernCOn.
Numerous failures Of commercial
concerns have been narrowly avert
ed in the last week anI that is the
principal reason that CaUsei barks
tu support the market. If the firms
had been permitted to fail. their
stocks Of merchandise beng sold
out by the courts, the banks would
havG lost heavily. The only way
t" save the bank5 was to liquIdate
theseSconcerns gradually. Many Of

stocks were so strong that pro-
fessionals think the improved tone
may carry over until Monday. But
they expect liberal selling next

Rails.
Railroad stocks were not any
stronger than the industrials. The
reason was clear. The rails have
not been sold shoTt so much as
the industrials nor had they been
hammered down so nue. by iQuida-
ton. p short time ago the rails
were technically stronger z nan the
industrials and really worth more,
but the shake-dow that the stock
market has had leaves the rails
without any technical or actual ad-
vantage.
It can be stated on the highest
possible authority that the buying
in o. s. Rubber in the recent break
has been for the account OF insiders.
Raw rubber has reached the low est

BRITISH CROPS SHOW
IMPROVEMENT DURING JUNE

June as a whole was a favorable
month for the development of crops
and for farm work throughout Eng
land and Wales, the Department of
Commerce has been informed in
report. received from the Ministry
of Agriculture and Fisheries. Frosts
early in the month checked growth
in some districts and showery
weather toward the end OF the pc
riod interfered with hay making.
Generally, there was enough rain,
though in a few districts more mois-
ture was needed at the end of June.
The grain crops especially showed
improvement in June, said the re-
port. Wheat is the most promising
of the three grain crops, and is COM
ing into head well.
