JULY CONTRACTS
 CHIEF FEATURE
 IN COTTON MARKET

New York, July 20. July contracts
 furnished the principal feature in T rather small cotton market today by advancing to Az .50, which was a new high record for that delivery, but not equal to the May contract which sold at 42.9S nor the March delivery which touched 43.1S, the latter being the highest price ever reached by q flu lures contract. The buyers of July today were mostly local shorts and spot houses who found very little for sale, notwithstanding the arrival of cotton here from Norfolk and the is suancc of 12 notices. It closed firm at the top of the day. Later months opened 12 to 20 points higher and fluctuated narrowly during the day, with the close points higher to , lower. Early in the session October sold at 35.3l, December at 33.50 and January at 32.62, representing about 15 to 20 points net advance.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, July 20.-Wet weather continued over a great portion of the belt and the cotton market today stood at small gains. The demand was fairly well filled at times by realizing sales on the long side and by new selling encouraged by favorable ac- counts concerning the Texas crop, shat state not having had as much rain of late as more eastern sections of the belt Opening higher, the mar ket improved with several small re- sessions until it stood 20 to 35 points over the closing quotations of ycster- day and October traded at 34.60. From this there was gradual sag until on the close the active months were only 6 to 16 points up.
 The weather map when it was post ed was wet in the central and eastern divisions while the western division received widely scattered showers. The forecast pointed to no improvement, calling for showery weather east of the Mississippi river and partly cloudy to showery weather west of it. Highest prices came after the fore cast,

with whom she was very deeply in love.
 Hogue Miller shot great deal. He had shooting box in Canada and another in Maine. Also he had been two seasons in British Columbia and Alaska and now planned long hunt ing trip to Africa with Harvey Shel- dor and others of his friends.
 Barbara liked him immensely. He st4ated in by calling her "Lil Sis" fnSn the moment of her engagement tds John De Haven, and, while he was twice her age, she dubbed him t"Hoguie' which pleased him more than any nickname he had ever known.
 His fondness and admiration for John De Haven, to whom he alice tionately referred as "the market thing in Wall street." and his love for "Li'l Sis" made both feel hap piness that does not always attend the the engagement of young people Sometimes the prospective "in-laws" are not so generous with their love and welcome.
 Anne Miller had babied and moth cred John De Haven, the youngest of the family. Following the death of his father and mother before he was grown, he had made his home with her and Hogue. He had lived with them until his graduation from the university and his spectacular en- try of business when he took house on the avenue and lived in regal bachelor splendor with retinue of servants quite sufficient to care for a family.
 They were devoted to him as he was to them and their children. But their love was enough to divide be- tween John and his financee, so Barbara got her full share of affec- tion. She was very happy to have it.

became more virile and elastic, his voice mere resonant, his young eyes mere brilliant.
 Barbara also was proud of him, but her manner was shy, sweet, trusting, One could see that her soul shonc in her eyes as she looked at him, that To ,e filled her voice when she spake of or to him. Albeit the girl was not mawkishly sentimental. No more was he lovesick as a young man is sometimes said to be. They were grownups,, indeed, each even blissful, content, and-proud of :hem- selves for having found each other.
 It was considered far and wide in the set to which they belonged as a perfect match. There were mothers who at once nurtured mild dislike of "The Beautiful Californian" who had won the love of the brilliant young financier; but it was tempor- ary, for they knew time was fleeting and that they would have to cast about immediately in other direc- ClOuo IOI oOIo-lH-ldWs Vudy be, tool they realized that Barbara had not supplanted their daughters. John De Haven would have said, had he been asked, that there "hadn't been chance!"
 Mrs. Beckley Hewitt, Mrs. Harvey Sheldon, Johns sisters, Anne and Alice who were Mrs. Hogue Miller and Mrs. T. Burton Penfield, enter tained them as did many others be- fore their wedding. Johns other two sisters, Mary and Dorothea, lived abroad.
 Mrs. Hogue Miller, Barbara's fa- vorite of the two sisters in- law to- be whom she knew, welcomed the girl with such warmth and affection that they instantly became solid friends. Mrs. Miller was matron of thirty five with three romping, healthy children and husband who was be- gining to gray at the temples and

By Kathleen Fox

Barbara Kendall was to be a Christmas bride John De Haven would not wait till the springtime. June was an eternity off, he argued, so, with the passing of the autumn, they made plans for holiday we'd ding.
 She yielded at length, largely be- cause of the fact that his misfortune had elicited her sympathy, and for the additional reason that she loved him more every day that their happy engagement progressed. And he had wanted her so much that his plea for an early marriage at Christmas time was all the more powerful and con- vincing. She could not deny him.
 Dr. Hill had been right. The oper- ation of breaking John De Haven s leg in order to reset it and make it grow straight and strong had been most successful. In two months he was out and apparently as we'll as ever though he carried heavy cane and. walked with slight limp. This, however, disappeared, and when the winter festivities began he was with out trace of the lameness.
 How they danced together, John and Barbara. And now he exaulted in the proud possession of "The Beautiful Californian" For the en- gagement had been announced and all men and women might know that she would belong to him.. that she had given him her heart that many men sought. Bob La Farge and Dix Ran dall had not been alone in pursuit of her.
 It was pride that made the man feel such joy, for he reckoned it as the greatest achievement of his life, winning her. He counted her love far beyond the thousands he had won in the market by the sharpness of his wits, his business sense. His hansome head flung higher when they appeared together, his deep chest thrust farther out, his step

NEW YORK SUGAR.

New York, July 2O.-The local mar ket for raw sugar was weak again to- day and prices were half cent lower to the basis of 16 1-2 cents for Cubas, cost and freight, equal to 17.56 for centrifugal. The easiness in raws had no effect in refined and prices were unchanged at 22.00M22.50 for fine granulated.
 The continued weakness in raws led to further selling pressure in sugar futures. Prices broke quite sharply and at the close showed declines of 39 to 70 points.
