Besides. ii was generally anticipated
that the domestic supply total would

Chicago this week had much to do with
a sudden but transient downward swing
in the wheat market during the middle
of the session. Furthermore, sales OF
wheat to go into storage here were an
nounced. Later it developed that to-
DAYS receipts here had been over
estimated, and. instead of amounting 10
400 car loads, were actually 246. Ex-
ports sales of 100000 bushels at the
seaboard and vessel charters here for
270. 900 bushels to Buffalo helped fur-
tber to send the market upward again
in the late dealings. Deliveries here on
May contracts were 10000 bushels OF

Report Used as Argument
by Rail Officials.

Special Dispatch to THE New YoRK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. c., May 5.
Comparative railroad efficiency under
Government management and under-pri-
vate management is shown in a report
of traffic. just completed by the Bureau
of Railway Economics, according to rail
officials. On the basis of figures in the
report, private management is more ef-
ficient and results in transporting
larger volume of freight and passengers
agement. it is claimed. The figures are
being touted by adherents of private
management as the conclusive word In
the controversy long waged over the
question. Officials of the bureau main
tain a neutral attitude as to conclusions
to be drawn from their study of the
relative efficiency.
The figures show that the railroads
in 1920 carried 2.0s5 tons of freight 4
mile for every 500 of invested capital.
The number of passengers carried a mile
was 239 for every such 800. That was
the year in which the Government hand
cd the roads back to private manage
ment. During 1919, in which the Gov
ernment was in charge of the lines,
freight carried was 1902 tons a 800
of invested capital and passengers 243
a 800 of such capital
Comparison of the two returns as re-
CARDS freight shows that under private
management the roads carried approx.
mately per cent. more tons for every
500 of investment than they did under
public management. The number of
passengers carried, however. increased
during public management.
Observers who can be described as
impartial say the tonnage returns 500
Of investment do not for the periods OF
comparison prove efficiency or ineffi-
cheney of either side. The increase in
the tonnage carried. according to the
impartial view, was brought about by a
better business year, in which the roads
naturally shared, as did all kinds OF
business The year 1920 was much more
profitable to most business enterprises
than was 1919, 1t is declared.
Officials of the bureau are inclined to
regard their figures as merely an index
of the business transacted by the roads
without respect to efficiency.

COTTON BOUNDS UP
60TO 81 POINTS NET
In Sharp Advance May Makes
Gain to 1890 Cents and
Spot Hits 20.15.

The cotton market responded yester-
day to combination of builish in
fiuences with the sharpest advance in
many sessions, q net gain of so to 80
points. which carried May contracts as
high as 1890 cents pound and spot to
20.15 cents A renewal of unfavorable
weather in the South, particularly rains
in Texas and Oklahoma, firm Liverpool
cables, probability of settlement Of the
New England textile strike and more
encouraging advices from the goods
trade brought about an active buying
movement, which forced many shorts to
cover. Closing levels were around the
sessions highest, So to 79 points better
than those Of Saturday.
Realizing. which at times was heavy,
was well absorbed, and the market held
we'll in the last half hour under pressure
from local and outside longs taking
profits. On the other hand. many long
of the staple showed no sign of weakness
and believed firmly in still higher prices.
Yesterdays weather map, except for one
or two places In the Western belt was
in itself not particularly bullish. 1t was
later news, official and unofficial, that
made for the upturn.
A factor that no one seemed to over
look was increased business In spot
cotton abroad. Liverpool reported sales
of $4,000 bales of the actual. Futures
prices held firm and Manchester advices
were all in optimistic vein. Buyers in
the local market included Japanese in
terests, New Orleans houses and room
traders. Selling was largely for profits
on the long side. Very few cared to
venture on the markets short side.
The local spot cotton market was
strong at 20.15 cents for middling. De-
liveries on local contract were $500 bales.
The New Orleans spot market was 3s
points net higher at 1850 cents a pound
for middling, and it's sales were of 2.S05
