 Foreign war loans made an indif- ferent showing by comparison, Brit ish, French and Belgian governments manifesting no definite trend, with heaviness in United Kingdoms of 19S7 and several of the French municipals.
 Domestic rails were not affected by the railway strike, most changes in that quarter being in the direction of higher levels, with especial strength in Louisville and Nashville 4s, Great Northern 51ss and 7s,, St. Louis and Iron Mountain 4s and Chesapeake and Ohio convertible 5s.

Br Associnte.l Prns,

New York, July 14.-Duns tonor- row will say:
 Seasonal restraints on business are accentuated by existing lat.or troubles. Activities have not atiat- ed in all lines but strikes have i'm peded the revival in some industaie; and the general rate of progress is lower Congestion in transportation due to the railroad controversy is not widespread yet evidence of de- layed movement in merchandise IS not lacking and the difficulty of ob- taining fuel is intensified. With this condition. the recovery in steel out put which has been pronounced dur Ing recent months. has been checked, seme producers reporting reduced running schedules. Against the un'- satisfactory phases resulting from industrial disputes. however, there are the unmistakeable signs of im- provement in various quarters, of a stronger sentiment than prevailed early In the year. and of disposi- ton to operate ahead more conff- -dently.

.BULL|SH ADV|CES HELPS COTTONBUT
 RALLY ALLS OFF
General Market Closed Easy at Net Decline of Nineteen to Twenty seven Points
 on the Day
By Associated Press

New York.s July 14.-An opening decline in the cotton market was fol- lowed by rather sharp rallies on bull from 22.43c to 22.S0c for October, the market broke again under real izing or liquidation with that del.v- cry closing at 22.46c, The general market closed easy at a net decline of 19 to 27 points.
 An opening decline of 15 to 19 joints was attributed to renewed ner- vousness over European affairs, easier Liverpool cables and a some what less favorable view of domestic labor conditions There were buying orders for execution on the scattered and early offerings seemed to be ab- sorbed on decline to 22. 2Sc for De- cember and 21. 97c for January. or about 28 points below yesterdays closing. The market rallied on gen. eral buying which was doubtless en- couraGed by the continued bullish average of crop advices and appre- hensions that eastern belt rains would increase boil Weevil damage. There was also bullish comment on the report of the census bureau showing domestic consumption of 507 1869 bales for June against 4G1, . 9l7 for the same month last year and for time the market showed con- siderable strength. December sold up to 22.65c and January to 22. BOG, or , to points net higher. but this bulge seemed to bring out realizing or liquidation by recent buyers, and Wall street was credited with selling considerable cotton in the late trad ing. Prices broke sharply under this pressure. closing at declines of 27 to 34 points from the best on the more active positions. Private cables reported small trade demand in Liverpool. and said buying otherwise had been caecked by apprehensions of further decline in German marks. Crop advices from the southwest are already conflicting with the lare break, and were accompanied by re- ports of good rains in Texas Ex- ports today, 7,623, making 5.S92,SS3 so far this season.

Coal Situation and Car Shortage Affect
 Steel Industries

New York, July 14.-tSpecial.)- The Iron Age says The coal situa- tion has grown more serious in the past week from the standpoint. Of the steel industry. Tals is due ln part to lessened production of coal last week. but largely to car shorl- ages and congestion produced by tls strike of railroad shopmen @
 Conditions are so acute with ths Norfolk and Western. Louisville aiti Nashville and Chesapeake and 0h1p railroads, which have been moving coal from Kentucky and West Nir- ginia mines to coke ovens and skeci works in western Pennsylvania and Ohio, that a number of pig iron producers are facing blast furna se shutdowns. Coal shipments on the Chesapeake and Ohio have been re duced by 50 per cent in the past few days.
 The steel corporation is now op- erating at slightly less than 75 per cent of steel-making capacity,s. as against more than 77 per cent in The two or three weeks preceding. Soms independent steel companies are edo- ing nearly as well. but several VII be forced to curtail production if the situation is not soon relieved.
 notable feature of the past week has been the number and size ef orders from the railroads for ear and locomotive repair work in view of the idleness Of their own sheps. Three large lines have asked for bids on repairing 5000 ears. New locomo- tive business is of goaa volume also. In the past two ceks orders have come out for 62 e elssiaes and active inquiries call for ! fsG
 Owing to unc't antics as to the coke supply. both luyQrs and sellers of pig iron are tsry cautious and few important transactions have been recorded. Ala abama iron is agat7 quoted at SIS. decline of 50 cents. stocks is strong. as only 44,000 tons was on hand July l, compared with 232,000 tons a year ago and 60,000 ern iron is the largest ever known. Basic iron has declined $1 at Pitts burg to a basis of SPA. Valley.
 The Iron Age composite price for pig iron has fallen from S24.19- ta $23.6l, about on a par with the price on May 16. This is about the level which was reached in April, 1s2,, during the fall from the high prices of 1920. The lowest intervening price was s1S.02, on Februarye If last.
 The finished steel composite 1r,.- i mains at 2.f69c per pound as for The two previous weeks. This is about the figure reached at the end if October, during the slow fall from the high prices of 1920 The lowest intervening price, 1.99Sc, was reachel at the end of February c
