ANCESTOR WORSHIP
IS FAST DYING OUT
Japanese Students indifference to
Religion Causing Government
Concern.
fsy The Associated Prsss.)

TOXIC, July 9.--The indifference CT
Japanese students above the middle
school to ancestor worship is causing
the government considerable concern.
according to *. Yamada, chief of the
Shinto affairs bureau in the home de-
partment, who addressed the general
conference of the Shinto priests OF
Japan. Ancestor worship is the fun
damental religious custom in this
country, and is closely related to ma
tional veneration for the imperial
family and the imperial ancestors.
1T Is regrettable that the higher
the education students receive in this
country, the more indifferent is their
faith in ancestral spirits" said Mr.. va
mazda
Judging from the number of wish
tors to the shrines and the amount Of
contributions such pilgrims make,
there is every reason to conclude that
despite the growing predominance Of
foreign Objectionable ideas in This
country since the late war, the spirit
of worshipping ancestral shrines still
remains intact.
A serious fact, however, is that
whereas the elementary school chill
dren are always sincere and earnest in
their faith, students studying in the
schools higher than middle schools
show indifference toward such mat
i ter.
THE worshipping Of ancestral
shrines is so closely related with the
national character of the empire that
the above tendency cannot in the least
be ignored as anything but serious.
1t is the authorities decision that
some proper steps be taken for the
correction of the above undesirable
state of affairs, assisted by the Shinto
priests"

NEW YORK, July 9-Stocks were
heavy in the first half of todays SEES

but rallied briskly later, most losses
being cancelled or reduced to nominal
dimensions.
Shorts attempted to take advantage
of the light attendance of traders,
weakness of foreign exchange and an
other probable decrease in steel tom

issues of companies whose dividend
prospects are mere or less debatable

vision gave. impetus to the rebound,

SHARP ADVANCE
IN COTTON MARKET
General Market Closing at a Net Ad-
vance of to 28 Points

NEW YORK, July S.-Early irregu-
larity was followed by sharp adj
vance in the cotton market today with
October selling up to 1895 or II net
points higher and into new high
ground for the movement. That de-
livery closed at 1898, with the gen
vance of l to 2S points.
An opening advance of 9 to Is points
on Wall street and foreign buying met
good deal of realizing over the week
end. There was also scattered selling
on favorable early weather reports
ard renewed rumors that a private
mid month condition report expected
early next week would show an i'm
provement as compared with end June
figures. Prices eased back to about
last nights closing figures in consa-
quence with October selling at 1868
and December at 1910. Offerings We're
pretty readily absorbed on this set
back, however, and the market turned
firmer late in the morning on reports
OF continued export demand for spot
in eastern belt markets and renewed
rains in the southwest.
Some reports from Texas comment
ed on the wet weather as extremely
unfavorable and people who have been
selling, talk Of improving crop cover

to 1890 and December to 1888 with

BOOM SUBSIDIZED AS
SOON AS IT BEGAN
Amounted to Little More Than Tenn
porary Rout on Shorts

NEW YORK, July 9.-The securities
market this week gave promise of a
traditional July boom but the move
ment subsidized almost as soon as it
began, amounting to little more than
a temporary rout of the shorts. In
other respects the last half of the year
opened with few indications of any
change from the adverse conditions of
the previous six months. Prospects as
affecting the railroads show improve
ment, but steel and other basic indus
tries continue at low, il not lower lev
els of production.
Omission of the common dividend
on United States Rubber was sig
nificant not only because it was I'M
expected, but because it drew atten-
tion to the status of other companies.
Foremost financial interests having
the foreign situation primarily in mind
evidently do not look for pronounced
Improvement in domestic conditions
until the final quarter of the year.
The money market evinces almost
steady relaxation, but accommodations
are restricted to legitimate enterprises.

GENERAL TREND OF
COTTON Is HIGHER
Although New Orleans Market Had Its
Soft Spots Strength Was Shown
in Last Few Minutes /.

NEW ORLEANS, July 9.-The gem
eral trend Of prices in the cotton mar
ket today was higher although the
market had it's soft spots. Greater
strength was shown in the last few
minutes of the day when advances over
yesterdays close of 10 to q points
were reached, October trading up to
1851. Last prices We're net gains Of
IS to "a points with October at 1913.
Too much rain in Texas and prospects
that the rain would continue over sun
day were the main buying factors OF
the session although more or less
buying was done on the better out
look in Ireland.
In the early trading buying was
scattered and came mainly from trade
interests. Floor gossip was that this
was hedge buying against sales Of
spots for forward delivery. October
felt the best demand. After advances
Of to 3 points heavy selling came in
and the market fell off to levels of
to 6 points under the close of yes
terday. This selling was due to Brit
ish board OF trade reports showing
British exports during June of only
153. 000, 900 yards of cloth against 406.-
600 900 in June of last year and ex-
ports of $4,000 pounds of yarn against
ID, 500. 900.

that the western belt would probably
get more rain, the selling was checked

CHINA IS AT MERCY
BANDS OF BRIGANDS
Districts Outside the Large centers
Overrun With Robbers

SUCHIEN, Kingsu Province, July 9.
Vast districts of China outside of
the larger centers are at the mercy of
brigands, recruited in large part from
the ranks of unpaid soIdiery Kid
mapping probably is the commonest
activity of the robbers.
In other days to be kidnapped often
gave one an air of distinction for the
demands of the robbers then were
more or less moderate, but times have
changed. Victims commonly today
are forced to surrender all they. pos
cess to regain their freedom. The
brigands seem to have their own com
mercial agencies through which they
learn how much may be expected from
a captive.
