Wheat traders displayed special in

clared that crop conditions In the State

With continued high temperatures and
absence of rain the rule in this country
and no abatement OF the European
drought buying orders took on large pro-
portions, and it was near the end of the
session before profit taking on the part
OF holders led to any material setbacks.
A leading elevator concern was conspic-
uous in the buying. Another strength
ening factor was urgent demand from
exporters for hard winter grades. On
the upturn December delivery touched

Corn and oats showed Independent

CBREGON'S PREPARATION
PLAN WELL RECEIVED
VieUed as Big Step in Recon
struction Scheme.

MEXICO CITY, July 13.-President Obre-
CONS decree inviting countries whose ma
tions have suffered damage through
Mexican revolutions to appoint delegates
to permanent commission to pass upon
claims is regarded in official circles here
as most important step in the Presi-
dents reconstruction programme.
1t is recalled that the establishment
Of such a commission was mentioned In
a MEMORANDUM submitted recently by
President Obregon to the State Depart
ment in Washington. At that time
recognition If the Obregon Government
was under discussion. but the President
stated 1t had long been his intention to
propose such a commission.
The Mexican Claims Commission has
made no recent announcement OF the
amount of the claims filed with it, but
late last year the total was given as
more than 32.00o,000 pesos. of which
more than 2o,000.00o pesos represented
claims from foreigners. Not more than
four American claims have been filed
with the Mexican Claims Commission.
according TO information available here.
The attitude of the Mexican Govern
ment heretofore has been not to recog-
nize claims other than those submitted
to the old Commission on Indemnifica-
tions, but the reclinations listed by that
body are small and 1t is known that
vastly greater amounts will be taken up
by the mixed commission.
The United States claimants. for in
stance, have set UP claims for only 1884,
Els pesos and the British for only 5000
pesos. Spaniards head the list with al
most Is, 900, 900 pesos. and the Turks are
next with more than 3,500,000. The Ger
mans have asked for more than 100000
and the French for $4,000.

PRESSURE FAILS TO
SEND COTTON DOWN
Market Shows Strong Power
of Resistance-Final Bids
Are Near Top.

The cotton market OF yesterday
showed greater power OF resistance and
in the face Of further Southern hedge
pressure advanced 10 to 80 points from
Mondays closing prices. Bears could do
little. due to continued betterment of
Liverpool conditions. Liverpool futures
prices were about Is penny points
higher than expected and English spot
sales continued good and amounted to
10000 bales. The market met it's heavi-
est pressure Of the day Just after the
Issuance of the weekly weather report,
which most traders regard a little better
than expected. Although talking of
boil weevil activity. it stated that con-
ditions were favorable for picking in
most sections of the cotton belt.
The market started with a steady to
firm undertone. its first prices being 13
to Is points UP from Mondays final
bids. Two July notices were In circu-
lation. but they had little or no effect
on values. Liverpool. Wall Street and
spot interests bought at the opening and
pressure came mostly from commission
houses or the South. Demand by brokers
operating for Japanese interests was in
evidence. Sentiment on the floor and
In brokerage houses was mixed, but, on
the whole. it was evident that the short
SIDE OF the market was approached with
more than usual caution.
The list eased off from the top after
the middle of the day and receded to
about the level Of Tuesdays closing
prices. An increased demand developed
on the way down, and in the early part
OF the afternoon the market ruled fairly
firm with a gain Of about u cent a
pound Shorts showed uneasiness. Specu-
iative feeling was influenced to no little
extent by firmness of securities. The
best support OF the session developed in
the last half hour, when all options
made new highs for the day. Final bids
were around the top with gain of 23
to 80 points from Mondays close. The
local spot market was up 80 points to
1910.

100000 WASTED
IN QUIzzES, CHARGE
High Tax and Government
Cost Laid to Extravaganza Of
Public Investigations.
GRAND JURY SHOULD ACT
Business Mems League Com
mittee Finds Sale of Chickens
and Motor Lights Probed.

High taxes and the high cost OF
government are due in no small part to
the extravaganza and waste of public
Investigations. That is a conclusion
reached by the Business Mems League
Committee on Investigating and Investi-
gators.
When the extraordinary powers Of
the State are used for investigations Of
inconsequential matters. or purely for
partisal advantage. and the funds OF
the State are frittered away in order
10 give a holiday at public expense to
officials of high and low degree. the
government that encourages this fash
ion is brought into disrepute, the powers
OF the State are abused and public con-
f1dence alienated," the committee finds.
Its report. signed by Christopher Cum
ningham. was submitted to Preston p.
Lynn. president of the Business Mems
League, which is the organization that
sponsored Mayor Hylan's candidacy IN
the last municipal election.
The State Legislature in the last five
years has created twenty-seven investl-
eating committees to investigate all
sorts OF things. from the size of auto
mobile headlights to the sale of chickens.
There are duly authorized investigating
bodies in municipal and county govern
ments and grand juries should be able
to do all the investigating needed. the
committee believes
More than s1.000oO0 has been spent by
the State for these committees with
accounts still open and large sums yet
to be paid. There are enormous bills
Tor printing reports which are never
read. The report recited "the scandal
which grew out Of the Thompson Com
nlittee's bills at the Biltmore. Most of
the bills should be labelled entertain
ment." 1t is suggested.
Special censure Is given the Brown
Committee. which examined into New
York city finances, of which Elon r
Brown. counsel for the Legislative Com
mittee now investigating the Hylan Ad
ministration. was chairman. Other in
vestigating bodies which cost much and
did little were those which inquired into
these subjects Committee on Live
Stock. Poultry and Dairy Products to
Investigate the Disposition OF Mohansic
State Hospital; to Investigate Bolshev-
ism; to Investigate Habit Forming
Drugs; to Investigate George Thomp-
sons $500.0o0 bribery charge; to Investi-
gate Housing.

SENATE BACKS PLAN
OF MELLON ON DEBT
Powers for Treasury Secretary
Expected to Be Approved on
Refunding Proposal.
Special Despatch to THE New YORK HmALp.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., July Is.

-, J
Bestowal Of broad discretionary pow
ers upon Secretary of the Treasury Mel
len for the refunding OF the S11. .000, ,000.-
coo allied debt to America will be ap-
proved by q majority of the Senate In
the opinion Of Senator Penrose and other
Republican leaders in Congress Final
approval by the Finance Committee was
deferred to-day to enable the committee
to obtain further information from Mr..
Mellen on the matter which Is to be
presented tomorrow.
1t was predicted that the Secretary
would clear up some fears Of Senators
that the bill puts too much power In the
Treasury head, and 1t is probable some
amendments will be accepted to forestall
determined opposition which was mani
tested to-day by Republicans and Demo-
Gratis.
Senator Borah served notice that be-
fore the bill Is approved further facts
or the programme Of the Treasury must
be furnished, and this virtual threat is
being backed by several minority Sen
ators.
Discussion was provoked to-day by
Senator Borah. who inserted in the
record despatch from New York to
London newspaper which indicated there
was to be a postponement Of payment
Of both interest and principal for fifteen
years. He asked II this were true. SEN
ator Smoot denied that there was "any
agreement" to that effect.
"Is there any understandings" per-
sisted Mr.. Borah.
II cannot say, but I doubt it, Mr..
Smoot replied. Reminded by Senator
Watson that Mr.. Smoot had opposed
immediate collection of the allied debt,
Mr.. Smoot reaffifned his belief that 1t
should not be done and that to do so
would be harmful not only to the allied
Powers but likewise to the United States
because Of its effect on international
commerce and exchange. II say now
that I am not in favor of immediate COL
lection of this debt" Mr.. Smoot said.
because we would lose a great deal
more than we would collect. 1 say again
that such a course would be disastrous"
There are certain laws of commerce
and certain conditions now existing"
continued Mr.. Smoot, that never ex-
listed before in the world, which must
be taken into consideration. But I say
here and now that I have no idea that
the debt ever will be forgiven"
1T will be necessary for those in
terested in this bill to inform the Senate
what it is proposed to do under it," in
terjected Senator Borah. before they
get 1t through this body"
