 Mexico'S Debt Factor
Ry AssocIntcd Presa

New York. June 17.-Stock market prices rose and fell in bewildering confusion during todays short ses- sion. The net results, however, showed a number of substantial gains.
 Announcement overnight of the signing of an agreement for reor- eanization of Mexicos foreign debt was a strong sentimental factor, as indicated by the further strength of Mexican petroleum and affiliated stocks.
 Realizing for profits and short selling of motors and equipments and miscellaneous specials checked the advance temporarily and effected fresh unsettlement. This was over come before the close on renewed buying of Mexicans, and a sudden uprush in prices of independent steels, several prominent automo- bile issues and rails. The latter especially coalers showed restraint, however, in connection with latest aspects of the labor situation.
 Among the few distinctly heavy issues was Lima locomotive. traders offering that stock on news of tho
  It's trend was q striking contrast to that of Baldwin locomotive and other porular equipments. Sales amounted to 800, 900 shares.
 Foreign exchanges again were un- settled, brokers reporting an increase of selling orders on London, Paris and Amsterdam.
 Demand sterling at 4.43& was 5Mc below the weeks highest quotation. the French rate forfeited another points and recessions among neutrals, particularly Dutch and Scandinavian bills, ranged from to 10 points.
 In keeping with forecasts, actual loans and discounts of the clearing house disclosed another expansion. lifting the total of that account to slightly more than s4.So0. 100000, the years high record. Net demand de- posits showed a gain of about $123,- GOO, 900 and a cash increase o' $Sz,- 1000 expanded actual excess re- sarves to almost 64,000. 900.

New Or leans wired the weather outlook over Sunday was favorable and prospects are for favorable weekly crcp summary next week Most of the news was of a bearish nature, how ever, cotton showed as much strength today as that of any day this week and the fluctuations give the appear ance of mill buying or heavily over sold market.

 While it is probable that the crop as a whole has improved somewhat in condition since May 25, the prog ress attained has probably not been sufficient to cause any decided in- crease in the indicated yield, con sequently the outlook remains for an inadequate supply for next season since the world will likely need at least 13,500.000 bales of American cotton next year.
