that there were some real traders Will

some of its former honors as financial

not satisfactory. The fault may be
due in part to the broadcasting
stations and opposition to any
broadcasting at all. The larger

COTTON HIGHER In
STRONGER MARKET
General Covering by Shorts
And Advent of New Buy

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE cot

opening today and sharply higher
The extreme advance ranged from
10 to IS points over yesterdays
closing by o'clock with october
and December going above Il n
cents and January and March SELL
ing at 21A cents or up nearly 120
to 14O points from the recent low
level. There was general covering
o. shorts and also considerable new
buying by local trade and wall
Street commission houses. This
continued throughout the forenoon
with a scanty supply of contracts
on the market 1t was not until
the above high levels were reached
that enough new selling pressure
developed in the way Of new profit
taking sales from local traders and
also from some of the spot/houses,
the market had any reaction. Prices
went If about 20 points from the
top from this influence during the
last hour. but the undertone of the
market continued good up to the
close.
Among the bullish developments

any rains IL Texas overnight or

stations in Texas. mostly in the
Southwest with five-eighths of an

were received claiming that hot

were doing considerable damage by
causing a great deal of shedding.

BOND ADVANCE IS
STEADY, DEVOID OF
SENSATIONAL RISES
Movements Indicate Nat
ural Improvement and
Arouse Optimism.

NEW YORK. Aug. 17.-No sensa- =
tional advances have come to any
group Of bonds recently. nor did
today's session reveal anywhere a
spectacular movement in prices, but
the market continued to show its
steady fractional improvement.
holding most of the small gains as
made.
That kind of a market for bonds.
obviously indicates natural improve
ment and arouses more optimism
on the part of the far-sighted in
vestors than trading in furries
such as delights the hearts OF specu-
lators who are in the market one
day and out the next. 1t Is sig
nificant. too, that of late several of
the better grade issues have be-
come the markets favorites and
have pushed forward a little bit at
a time. to the years best levels.
Telephone Issues.
Within the last day or two there
has grown up an active demand for
telephone bonds, and, while their
prices have not gone forward rapid
ly. these issues have been gathered
ing activel yand with the tape show
ing many large block transactions.
The favorites have been Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph IS and the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company's issues, and particularly
its collateral As and the New Eng
land Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany's IS. Rail stocks were In good
position again, on the news over
night that something in the nature
of a definite settlement might well
come from today's conference be-
tween the rail strikers and execu-
tives and 1t was only natural that
the cheaper rail obligations should
have Jared well again.
Foreign Bonds.
Foreign bonds Jagged behind the
days forward price movement. but
business there was extremely dull.
Even the market for British bhs
was poorer. although some i'm
provement came to the 1928 and
1925 as the day wore on with
sterling's rise for a. new high on
this movement to S4.49 for demand.
Our own government war obliga-
tions were firm but neglected large
