COFFEE MARKET.

NEW YORK. Sept. s.-Interest in
coffee futures was extremely pas
sive today and hence prices re-
sponded readily as small orders ap-
peared on either side. In the main,
however. the undertone was easier.
A single lot of December sold on
the call at l point advance, but
other sales showed Losses Of to
points. There were many erratic
variations thereafter, prices at ohe
time being 11a13 points below
Wednesdays closing levels. with
rally subsequently of 5a7 points.
Owing to the holiday In Brazil
yesterday and today there was on
cable news to stimulate activity on
either side. Hence the generally
easier tone was ascribed to desire
on the part of small holders to take
in profits. Trade buying of Deceni.
Der, which has been the markets
chief support recently, was much
less aggressive and there was little
or no Indication of outside specula-
tive support

NEW YORK, Sept. S-The de-
cislon Of the Mexican. Supreme

American oil interests. and the ar
rangement regarding taxation OF

ests and the obregon government,
will 70 a long way toward restor-

that country. according to the opiR-
ion Of Joseph W. Rowe, representa-
tive in Mexico Of the Irving Nation

New York for a hve-weeks' stay. :

will be strictly observed by the

Eject In Trade.
"The effect on general trade will
be felt in this way: Tampico. which
is the center Of the oil industry,
Is also the best market in Mexico.
Normally, the Tampico district con-
sumes goods as fats as they ar
rive. The tax on oil exports i'm
posed a few months ago was so
high that the companies found II
impracticable to sell abroad. As a
result. exporting decreased-almost
stopped. in fact. The city at that
time was heavily stocked with i'm

be expected the goods will begin

the United States in a year. OF
conditions in general in Mexico. he
said:
Business in Mexico Is still be-
low normal. Nevertheless. the
situation has not been so bad as in
the rest of Latin America. There
have been no violent fluctuations
In exchange. Credit conditions
have remained good. and in the
last six months there have been
no commercial failures Of note.
Many houses are pressed for ready
cash. but they are carrying than
selves along.

Except in Tsmpico. merchandise

barring the cities OF the Northern

time the crops-which are reported
to be about 50 per cent Of normal

aid trade. I believe we can expect
Mexico in a few months to begin
