New Orleans Cotton Pv Assocjated PresN


 New Orleans, July 7.--Moderate steadi- ness in the early hours gave way to decided weakness in the late trading in cotton today, and from net advances of 23 to 3S points the market fell to net de- clines of 2S to 43 points, July falling from 37 63c to 37 .12c. The close showed net losses for the session of Fl to Sl points.
 Buyers of the early trading put their operations through because of the much higher Liverpool market than due, and because of their expectations of bad weather map continued boil weevil com plaints and unfavorably weekly crop ac- counts from the government The mar ket reacted mainly because the week ly crop reports were much better than expected, and, in fact, by some bearish traders were called the best reports of the season thus far. The upward move ment received it's first check when the weather map was drawn and much less rain than expected was noted in the cot ton region.
 Heaviest selling came toward the close, after the trade had had chance to really digest the weekly returns from the belt. Much was made of the statement that boil weevil damage was slight, and there was additional selling on rumors that private bureau was coming out with semi-monthly condition report Of around so, on reports that many eastern mills were curtailng output and rumors that some southern banks were trying to reduce their loans against cotton, par ticularly loans against the low grades.

MATERIAL ADVANCE WAS MADE YESTERDAY
 IN THE CHICAGO PIT
Oats Were About on a Balance, While
 Provisions Varied From BIC Off to 19c Up Qv as<nciated prnss

Chicago, July 7.-Corn scored a ma- terial advance in price today, owing chiefly to belief that reaction was due after the recent big week. Gains, how ever, were not held. The close was un- settled 7s cents net lower to Ss cents advance, with September 160as to 16OM and December 145ss to 145%. Oats finished 1A cents c: to 9s cents up and provisions varying from 37 cents de- cline to a rise of ten cents.
 Bulls in the corn market made much of the fact that in some eases the shrnkage of prices had amounted to pared with last weeks top figures. Fur thermore. demand was stimulated by assertions that this week would see the end of liberal receipts. The readiness with much offerings were absorbed gave additional impetus tos the upturns in values Near the end of the day, how evel. the market had an overboueht ap- pcara nee. Efforts to realize profits on newly acquired holdings followed and during the last thirty minutes of trad ing all the advance was virtually wiped out, with December closing at half to Mc net loss.
 Bearish crop estimates counted some. what In overcoming the strength that oats developed in sympathy with corn.
 Provisions were swayed for the most part by the action of grain. Packers bought to moderate extent.

Daily Financial Gossip
By HOLLAND

New York, July 7.-(SpsciaD = When Jules s. Bache spoke as he did a day or two ago to a group of representative business men intimating that if there were not some changes in our fiscal system strike of capital might follow, his monition was all the more needed because he is regarded as man of very high authority. He has been for nearly thirty years the senior partner in a very important private banking house. He is director in sixteen corporations all of which are of the highest stand ing. His activities cover not only in- dustrial and mining undertakings but he is also associated in the directorate of several railroad companies.
 MT Bache is often spoken of as a courageously conservative banker In other words he is a man of courage when courage is needed, but is also con servative especially in his communica- tions and counsels. He is an optimist and yet he realizes what some of the present dangers are. When he spoke of the possibility that there might be a strike of capital he made use of the word strike colloquilly but not in the sense that is employed when reference is made to labor troubles.
 If capital should strike in the sense in which Mir. Bache used the term, ac- tion of that kind would be caused al- most wholly by the effect of the crude and unscientific federal tax law. He is not the only one who has had reason to surmise that unless this law be changed so that 1t be made systematic, fair and easy of observance by the tax payer then there is likely to be some business depression as we'll as tranfer- ence of capital now invested in taxable securities into other securities such as government and municipal and state bonds which are tax exempt. Nobody can tell how many of the liberty bonds which have so greatly depreciated not because of lack of faith in the govern ment. but because deflation has been in- sisted upon, have been tranferred from the original buyers who borrowed mon- ey at the bank in order to carry the bonds, to men of wealth. Capital has investment in liberty bonds at the pre- vailing low market quotations Ulti- mately these bonds will command par and the interest upon them will never default.
 Furthermore they are not subject to the tax collectors grasp. So that many millions perhaps hundreds of millions of these bonds have passed

STAPLE COVERING. CAUSES A FURTHER ADVANCE IN COTTON
Higher Liverpool Cables and Showery Weather in the Belt Were Big Market
 Factors
By Associated Press

New York, July 7.--An early advance in the cotton market reflected re- newal on the covering movement which had developed yesterday afternoon and which appeared to be stimulated by in- creasing complaints of boil weevil dam- age. After showing recovery of about 100 to 110 points from the low level of yesterday, however, the demand be- came less active and the market turned easier during the afternoon with Octo- Der contracts selling off from S3.S5 to 33.05 or thirty-five points net lower.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of twelve to twenty-five points in response to higher Liverpool cables and reports that showery weather in the belt was promoting the spread of boil weevil July notices representing about 1,500 bales were reported in circulation. but failed to bring out any liquidation and the continued firmness of the near months helped later deliveries which sold some thirty-seven to forty-five points net higher during the morn- ing.
 There appeared to be enough July for gale as the price approached the forty cent mark and the general market turned easier after publication of week. ly report of the weather bureau. in- dicating that the crop had mode fairly good to excellent progress during the week and tending to minimize the ac- tivities of the boil weevil. July sold off from 39.9S to 39.40 or thirty points net lower and new crop positions broke thirty to forty eight points from last nights closing figures with December selling at 21.60. A few buying orders sent July back to 39.67. at the close, and later months also showed rallies of several points. Exports today were 661a making 6,210271 so far this sea- son. Port receipts 7,2SS. United states port stocks S4S,130.

OPERATIONS WERE ON A WIDER SWEEP
 IN STOCK MARKET
Money Was Inclined to Be Easier, Call Loans Open- ing at 8 Per Cent, Low
 for the Month
By Associated Press


 New York, July 7.-The recovery in the stock market, which had it's inception at the beginning of the month, was carried to greather lengths today on broader sweep of operations, although speculative shares were again the outstanding fea- lures.
 Buying of those issues was of more originated largely at interior points, mainly western and southwestern cen ters, while New England furnished a moderate demand for metals.
 Rails and shippings shared in the movement to a greater degree than at any recent period High-grade trans continetals contributed their proportions to the largest turnover since the first week of June, probably as a result of the better transportation situation.
 Over half the days business converged around the usual favorites, however, such as steels, equipments and oils, motors and kindred specialities. Extreme ad- vances reported by leaders of those di- visions ran from to points. with con siderable impairment on profit taking at the close.
 Changes in the money market were mostly toward further easement. Call , loans opened at 8 per cent, the lowest ini- tial rate of the month, and some relaxa- ton of time funds was reported, al- though quotations remained unaltered. Mixed conditions prevailed in the mar ket for foreign exchange. Sterling was firm and the Spanish rate strengthened, but reactonary tendencies were dis played by remittances to France, Italy. Spain and the Scandinavian countries. The successful Notation of the s25, coo, 600 Swiss Ioan which was readily absorbed, featured the bond market, Anglo-French 5s elso strengthening. Domestic issues, including the Liberty group, were irregu- lar.
 Total sales, par value, aggregated H4.-
 
 0id United States bonds unchanged on call.

from the ownership of the original sub scribers to that of men who have placed the bonds in their safe deposit vaults
 This illustrates the meaning which was in MT. Bache's warning that unless there be a change in our fiscal laws more and more capital will be with drawn from investment in securities which are taxable to other securities which are non taxable.
 It is only a surmise that the estate left by George w. Perkins amounts to ten million dollars. MT. Perkins said several years ago that he was not half as rich as was the common esti- mate of his wealth. He had amassed he said sufficient sum to provide for his family and having done that he stop ped accumulating.. He began to spend considerable part of his income in well fare work, much of which gained no recognition from the public. Had he been inactive business life for the past ten years he would have had abundant oportunity for doubling or tripling his fortune.
 One clause in MT. Perkins vii has led to favorable public comment, it even being spoken of with editorial approv- al. It is the clause in which he sets apart fifty thousand dollars and fur thermore an annual income of six thou sand dollars of which Miss Mary Kihm is the beneficiary. So it has been said that this bequest to his stenographer is without parallel and is worthy of all admiration. But Miss Klhm is not his stenographer although she may have mastered the art years ago. She is one of the small group of highly efficient women trained for successful business management of whom the secretary of the late H. H. Rogers was a typa.
 Miss kihm was really the confiden- tai secretary of MT. Perkins. She ha1 his power of attorney. She directed his affairs when he was absent with sucn skill as to call from him commen- dation. She has gained his absolute confidence. He sometimes spoke of her as wonderful business woman. And it was TO doubt in recognition. of the very great service which she for thirty years gave to him ana his aefrirs that he felt justified, even glad to establish fer fer benefit sufficient amount by his vii; to make her independent.
 Mir. Perkins office vii be maintained for al ,east year and undoubtedly Miss N'hm who vii. Dc in charge of the office, will ba fully occupied. for tl,, year in aiding in the settling up of the estate.
