PRICE MOVEMENTS WERE VERY NARROW AMONG B|G TRADERS
The Foreign Exchanges Were Bid Up With Rela- tive Briskness, Sterling
 Rebounding Over Cent
By Associated Press

New York, July 31.-Price movements on the stock exchange today were mar row and the volume of trading was small. The tone was one of underlying firmness, but the inquiry was light and trading kept within the usual limits of a Saturday in midsummer.
 The best evidences of an upward tendency developed among the rail- road issues, in which during the last hour there was an exhibition of quiet strength. The recent movements of in- dustrials tended to restrict the demand in this section of the market, and in some of these issues there was an cas- ing off in quotations.
 Dealings in bonds were nominal and without material changes among the leading foreign or domestic issues. Total sales, par value, $3,790,e00. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call for the week.
 The foreign exchanges were bid up with relative briskness. Sterling ef- fected rebound of more than a cent from yesterday and rates on France and Italy also moved up, although somewhat less steadily.
 The clearing house statement re- vea1ed an actual deficit below legal requirements, as was the case last week. Actual loans and discounts de- creased more than $20,0o0, GOO. There was an increase of s9,6S5,0o6 in demand deposits and the actual deficit was $6,086,00, as compared with $4,276,0 last week.
 Slowly reviving business activity was forecast in the weekly trade reviews, although transportation difficulties and the credit situation still operate as handicaps. An increase in business failures in the current week is noted.

Weekly Financial Review
ey Associated Press

New York July 31-Events of the week in the financial markets seem to offer cumulative evidence that the country is entering upon another and more compre- hensive phase of post-bellum readjust- ment.
 Stocks of all descriptions experienced another priod of liquidation, in which many popular issues fell to the years lowest levels, while United States Steel, an erstwhile leader. registered it's mini mum price for almost two years
 The setback continued to bonds for which early July inquiry seemed to have suddenly ceased. Many of the pre-war tigh-grade railway and industrial issues of accepted value suffered substantial losses.
 Much of the reversal was retrieved later in the week, the encouraging views of Governor Harding of the federal re- serve board, respecting the future credlt situation causing heavy short covering.
 Unfavorable industrial conditions en- tered largely into the calculations or confident short interest, while the mar ket was reactive. The labor situation in it's relation to the steel trade occa- sicned some misgivings, advices from im- pcrtant freight terminals indicating a recurrence of the recent blockade.
 Foreign affairs bulked large on the financial horizon, exchange on Londoh falling to the lowest quotation Tn over fcur months as a direct outcome or the Russo-Polish situation and the more acute industrial conditions in England.
 American bankers are negotiating for inc underwriting of several European loans chiefly of refunding character. II is believed however, that all plans will remain in abeyance pending at least martial settlement of political and milt- tary conditions in central Europe.

LIQUIDATION OF ALL GRAINS IN THE PIT
 CAUSED BIC DROP
P rice Cutting Occupied Most of the Time of the Traders In Wheat, With
 Weak Support
By Associated Press

Chicago. July S1.-Liquidation in all grains was on today and prices dropped sharply Wheat led the procession. At the finish it showed a net loss of 10A to 13 cents, with December $2.u to S212. and March s2121a to $2.13. Corn was down 2% to 6ss cents, with September Sl34ss to $1.S47s, and December Sl.201s to S1 20ss Oats suffered a slupm, ranging from Ac to alsc, while provisions also were lower.
 Price-cutting occupied most of the time of the traders in the wheat pit. There was a noticeable lack of support while the selling was general in charac- ter. Prices were the lowest since the government control went into effect.
 Corn prices suffered material reces- sions in sympathy with wheat. The heavy liquidation in the July delivery the break in wheat and the unsatisfac- tory financial situation all contributed to inspire shorts to continue their eff forts toward lowering values.
 Rains also had a great deal to do with the selling of corn.
 Oats ruled weak with other grains, sentiment being bearish, and commission houses and locals were aggressive on the. selling side.
 The July delivery suffered the great est liquidation. the close being at 69 cents, net loss of to 9iz cents.
 Provisions were under pressure from local bears and prices registered de- clines ranging from 15 to 67 cents.

American Cotton & Grain Excha,ee
New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, July 3l.-Persistent sell ing depressed the cotton market from the opening today, the pressure being strongest on the close, which was at the , lowest of the day, 65 to 71 points under yesterdays last prices. Ocotber traded as low as 30.21e.
 There was little demand at any time except that which came from shorts, who wanted to realize profits, and their pur- chases of covers were met by fresh of- forings for short account and by liquida- ting sales from longs, who were evening up in preparation for Mondays Bureau report
 i The continued favorable weather over the belt was looked upon as the most potent bear influence of the day by some traders, but it was plain that much of the selling was due to condolences in 8 high condition report from the govern nlent Monday, Offerings were heaviest following the~ forecast of fair weather for the greater part of the belt. Trade reviews stimulated some selling, for they told of slackening demand for cotton goods and lower prices and an additional bear argument was found in rumors that Georgia and East Texas were offering spot cotton in this market.
 Today wound up the old cotton year and there was at first the expectation that bearish items might be found in the annual statement, but the session was over before statistics appeared.

Religious Row
 Causes One Death;
 Another Wounded

Monroe, Mich., June 29.-Quiet pre- vailed today in the district surround ing Robideaux Corners, near here, following disorders that resulted in the killing of one man and wounding of another, following a religious con- traversy. State police, sent here last night to prevent renewal of the dis orders, have returned to their head quarters.
 According to Captain c. V. High in command of the troopers, the shooting was the result of feeling aroused over remarks alleged to have been made by an evangelist during a revival meeting. Rumors that a mob was coming out from Toledo to burn the church, kept the troops on the alert throughout the night, but no trouble occurred.
 No arrests have been made, the au- thorities being unable thus far, to fix responsibility for the shooting.

Indians Say They
 We're Forced To

Mexico City, June 2S.Several In- dians, examined with regard to thei, previous testimony in the case of William o. Jenkins, former American consular agent at Puebla, testified today that they were suspended in the air, struck and threatened with death by shooting until they agreed to testify against Jenkins, according to Puebla dispatches to Fl Universal this evening. Jenkins was kidnapped by the bandit Federico Cordova last fall and later charged with complic- ity in his own capture.
 The testimony is being heard before the third criminal court of Puebla Igracio Vasquez, former secretary of the second criminal court, declared court papers were stolen to damage the case against Jenkins and the judge was deposed when he was about to free the American. The bandit Co1dova, was cross-examined for four hours today, but his testimony was not disclosed.
 Interviewed in Mexico City tonight on his arrival from Puebla, Cordova said he had Kidnapped Jenkins, but that the latter was not an acconplice
