expect to obtain the BEST issues. Never

grees, and with the new rates in effect
all the roads should show increa sea

who is in position to buy at such time
is fortunate. Most people, however, are
in no such position. Do not think too

Sagggging aggi Tendency
Inn Wheat Trading
On Light Exports
Statistical Position Believed
Bullish, However, Though
Federal Crop Estimate
May Be Revised Upward

There was only a quiet trade in the
wheat market and prices during the
greater part Of the day showed q
sagging tendency, closing with net
losses Of " to 2 cents. The export
demand was extremely light, with total
sales amounting to only about 10000
bushels, and most of this was believed
to be on old orders.
The weakness in foreign exchange
was against export business and the
market appeared to require constant
buying. Cash premiums were shade
lower and the trade in general was in
clined to anticipate increased pressure
from Canada, where the new crop is
just beginning to move. The Modern
Miller intimated that t. e government
would have to revise it's winter wheat
estimate upward, as yields have ex-
ceeded expectations in some sections.
The statistical position makes a bull
ish showing, however, and A. L. Rus
sell, who was head Of the Statistical
Bur au Of the Grain Corporation, is
sued compilation showing possible
import requirements Of importing
countries to be 700 100000 bushels,
while the apparent exportable surplus
in shipping countries was placed at
602,000,0OO.
1t was thought, however. that crop
developments in the southern hemis-
phere may have a tendency to change
the outlook, while shippers believe
that the weakness in fo- ,ign exchange
will necessitate very close economy on
the part of importing countries.

Meyer Explains Stand
On Postal Savings
Insists Government Regulations
Should Be Changed in at
Least Three Places

Eugene Meyer jr, formerly head of
the " ar tirancc Corpor+L on. VINO re
Gently proposed to the Senate Recon-
struction Committee program for the
expansion of the United States postal
savings system, set forth in some de-
tail in an interview yesterday his idea
about the matter. He said that he had
been receiving large number Of writ
ten and verbal communications on the
subject, and prominent heads of ma
tional banks, private investment bank
ers, international bankers, labor lead
ers representing large groups and i'm
portant leaders in commerce and in
dustry have assured him of their ap-
proval.
On three points Mr. Meyer declared
the consensus of opinion IS almost
unanim Gus. They are as follows:
i. That per cent is too low rate
to pay to government savings depos-
itors.
2. That the onerous condition of not
allowing interest for less than a wear
or Tor any fraction Of year must be
revised so that interest should oe paid
BY the government for deposit of three
months or more.
3. That the present condition which
gives the postmaster no credit for the
postal savings business in establish =
ing the rate on which his pay is based
should be changed, so that instead of
the postmaster, as at present, having
this business as an additional burden.
without consideration for his work, he
should be properly compensated.
According to the Conformation serv-
ice" Of the Savings Banks Association
CT New York State, the mutual savings
banks do not favor the proposal. "The
opposition of mutual savings banks"
1t says, "is based upon sound reason
ing. Our institutions have aided every
effort to encourage thrift, and in so
doing have materially assisted in
strengthening the social fabric of this
country. To charge them with a self
ish motive in arguing against the ex-
pansion of the postal savings system
would be absurd, since our institu-
tions are non-profit makinpn

Krupp Plant Now
Makes Locomotives:
IJnderbids u. s. Co.
Germans Get Big, Dutch
Order i'm Competition
With American Produc-
ers; Exchange Rate Aids

American locomotive builders must
reckon seriously with German compe-
tisisn, according to trade interests
here, who are in close touch with de-
sslepments on the other side. The
great Krupp munitions plants at Essen,
which turned out much of the equip
ment that enabled German armies to
hold Of the Allies SO long, have been
rsnodeled and are now turning out
high grade locomotives. The first big
contract obtained by the German loco
motive manufacturers has been ar
ranged with the Dutch, and calls for
Ct eighty-two locomotives for use on
the Java state railways. The Germans
obtained the contract in open compe-
titon with American manufacturers.
A representative Of one of the large
American locomotive companies said
yesterday that the Germans were sue
eessSui largely because Of the high
premium at which the American dollar
ID quoted in the world markets. The
costs Of locom olive building, he said.
were not much different in Germany
than they are on this side. The mat
ten Of adverse exchanges, however, is
serious obstacle in the way of OBJ
sain'sg business, he said, pointing out
that az things now stand the American
market is coed one to sell in but a
poer one to export from. How serious
German competition in locomotive SELL
ing 10 to become in the future will de-
PEND, it is said, upon Germany's ability
prices.
Domestic demand for locomotives is
not up to expectations and the manu-
lae.uTers do not look now until next
s! sspring for much Improvement. By that
sms the railroads will know What the
saeess of the increase in rates will
% nave s been and moreover may be able
70 borrow ON a more advantageo GUS
sasis than at present. All of the rail
aoaa eompaaief are putting forth most
sae smenucss efforts to repair their loco

Sensational Gain
I'm October Cotton
On Market Gossip
Strong Buying i'm the Ring
Followed by Rapid Rise
i'm Prices to Near Maxi.
mum Limit of $40 a Bale

The feature in the cotton market
yesterday was the development of sud-
den and sensational strength in Octo-
Der contracts. For some reason or
other a belief gained ground that the
stock of less than 5000 bales-that is
to say. the cotton ready here for de-
livery on contract-was buying Octo-
Der around the ring.
This led to belief that any cotton
rendered On October contract would
have to be brought here from the
South, and while there are still two
weeks before the first October notice
day shorts were evidently alarmed by
the prospect. The result. was q quick
turn in the market. which had shown
considerable weakness at the start, and
October deliveries sold up from 2772
to $3.50, or 1873 points above the low
level of the morning and 135 points
October closed at 1898, or 113 points
higher, and the final tone was firm,
with later months so points higher to
10 points lower.
There was more bearish feeling
around the ring at che start than at
any time previously this week This
was due to variety Of influences, in
Guiding weak Liverpool cables, less
favorable prospects for avoiding the
British coal strike, prospects for bet
ter weather in the South and private
reports that some of the Southern
mills were running short of coal.
First prices were 35 to 65 points lower
and the active months soon showed net
losses of SO to rs points, with the late
months relatively easy. The market
then steadied on the spot house buy
ing of October, and the demand for
that position became more excited and
urgent when it was seen that moder-
ate advances were failing to bring out
contracts.
Later months were slow in following
the October strength, owing to the
bearish features noted earlier in the
day, but worked gradually higher, and
the close was within a few points of
the best. Southern spot markets as
officially reported were unchanged ia
100 points higher, with a fair volume
OF business reported at Houston.
The New York market for spot cot
ton was quiet and so points higher, al
1925 for middling. No sales were re.
ported.

Corn Market Declines;
Position Seems Weokor

The corn market was weak and low
er, closing with net losses of "a to
2Sc. The technical position appeared
to have been weakened by the recent
heavy covering and offers from the
country were Of more liberal proper
tions.
This resulted in increased pressure
on the September position, while the
late months were Influenced by pros
poets Of warmer weather over a large
part of the corn belt.
The cash demand was slow, and ship
ments of $4,000 bushels of corn from
the Argentine to the United States
this week contributed to the decline,
as it was thought that as long as corn
continues to come from the Southern
hemisphere to the seaboard there will
be little Improvement in the Eastern
cash demand for later corn.
