MEM ORLEANS COTTON.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 5.-The ten
dency was lower in the cotton market
today, al though at one stage a fairly
strong rally occurred. SUPPORT was lack
ing mostly because the trade was unable
to figure whether the light showers scat
tered widely over Texas really indicated
a change of Importance in the weather
conditions of the western belt. The
drouth over which has been a bulIishness
Of consequence for several weeks. In the
late trading the tone was rather soft and
the close was at new losses of five to
ten points, October closing at 20.62.
The early trading saw break of IL to
% points, the result of light showers at
a few points in Texas and the feeling
that the drouth was about to be broken.
When the weather map was drawn and it
was seen that no rain of consequence
had fallen early sellers commenced to buy
their contracts back and their demand
was sufficiently strong to send the most
active months to 4 points higher than
the close of yesterday. October, after
trading down to 20.50, rose to 20.74.
AS the market hardened selling in
creased again as the results of claims of
a somewhat easier spot basis and tele-
grams in points from the west saying
that offers Of spots to Liverpool, Havre
and Brennan were not bringing back en-
couragfng replies.

MODERATE GAINS BY
MOST ACTIVE ISSUES.
Request Of "5lg Four" For a Conference
With President Has Little Effect on
Market.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Moderate gains
were registered by most of the active is
sues in todays half holiday session of the
stock market. Total sales Appropriated
$500 shares.
The request of the four railroad broth
erhoods for a conference with President
Harding on the ground that a serious
situation was developing in connection
with the rail strike had little effect on
the market. Railroad stocks generally
making appreciable advances. Several
new lights for the year were recorded in
this group, notably by Chicago North
western, Southern Railway common and
preferred.
General List Holds Up.
Short pressure was directed against
some of the speculative favorites towards
the close of the session, Mexican Pc
troleum reacting 1-2 points and Bald
win dropping half, but the general list
held up well.
Kresge Company following in the wake
of Woolworth which reached a new high
earlier in the week, jumped up five
points, presumably on reports of increas-
ed July earnings by chain stores. Corn
products also broke through for a new
high and a good demand was noted for
the sugar and tobacco stocks.
Marks Way Down.
Sterling rates were strong, but some
irregularity was noted in the continental
exchanges. Marks were down to 13 cents
a hundred, nearly a cent below last
nights closing on reports that Germany
had refused to meet the stipulated pay
ments on pre-war debts to French citi-
zens.
The clearing house statement showed
an increase of actual loans and discounts

Subterranean
River Found

GENEVA, Aug. 5.-A great sub
terranean river, with an outflow Of
$1,000 gallons Of water a minute, for
been discovered in the Mont Blanc
region. Known as Faux Bellies, this
river. has thrown out many under
ground tributaries which have formed
small lakes and wells of extremely
pure and cold water in the southeast
districts of France and in some of the
southern cantonS of Switzerland.
The origin of the river is the an
cient lower glaciers of Mont Blanc
which it has been proved flow from
the bottom as we'll as the top, the lat
ter supplying indirectly the Rhone and
the Rhine.
The waters of Faux Bellies at a depth
of 25 to SO yards beneath the noun
tains have carved out wonderful and
beautiful caverns, grottoes and cou-
loirs full of stalactites and stalag-
mites.

fiction in which the American youth
foils the royal suitors of a princess
in some mythical European kingdom,
and wins the hand of the girl him

May Collins is cast as Anna Mae
Byrd, the daughter of the American
consul to the kingdom of Bunkonia.
Another important member of the cast
Is Tom Wilson, who is known far and
wide as a black-face comedian. He
portrays the role of Thomas Snow,
the negro valet of Roland who stands
between that impecunious youth and
his creditors, and who is forced to
carry various articles Of furniture to
the pawnshop when the creditors
press their claims too strenuously.

has m store. Many lofty souls must
have alreadyrisen to the conception
and TO the experience; only they
ara beyond our hen.
Existence Is surely as large and
magnificent now as it win ever be
in the future; the Universe is a
going concern. The realities are
all there, it is we who must attain
to them. We can do 90 only BY
obeying the rules, by doing our BIT,
by bidtng our time. There is no
short cut, there Is no huxrying the
eternal process" But he says, If
death is offered to US on our way, it
must not be shirked. ,..
"That may be one Of our highest
opportunities. The seh-foreseen
death Of the man or woman who
risks life at the call Of duty-be It
that OF physician or nurse or soldier
or fireman or sailor or mine rescue
worker-that is no suicide"

PRISONS IN THE OTHER WORLD:
CROOKS, TOO. SAYS SIR OLIVER LODGE

Self destruction has always
stood as a way out to men and
women whose moral fibre has not
been able TO withstand the pressure
<of life. In Christian countries 10
day, suicide is an evidence Of weak
ness. It Is the neurotic's escape
from himself and his environment.
But does the suicide really escape?

the August number Of Hearst's In
ternationsl Magazine, says INC, -
"S,licide is futile" he declares.
"We no more escape from exist
ence when we die than when we

far as our trouble is intimately
associated with our own defects,

spent life, reform It; do not seek tos
