WHEAT IS HIGHER M FACE OF GAINS
 N SUPPLY TOTAL

CHICAGO, August 6.-Despite a huge increase of the domestic visible supply total, wheat averaged little higher in price today. Absence of any aggressive selling was a feature. The close was unsettled at range vary ing from 1-4c net decline to 1-Sc ad- vance, with September 96 3-4 co 9d 7-Sc, and December 100 Is e 100 IA. Corn finished 1-4c to 5-Sc down, oats F off to 1-Sc up and provisions at 10c to 17c gain.
 Although the increase of the United States visible supply of wheat amounted to 7,844,00O bushels for the week, including nearly 5,000,000 bushels at Chicago, little if any de- pressing influence on the market re- suited, the enlargement having been foreseen and with other bearish fac tors been apparently discounted by previous setbacks in price. Dearth of important selling was in some quarters ascribed partly to state ments that wheat supplies east of the Rockies are virtually on a domestic basis. Announcement of system for obtaining government loans of farm stored grain was also looked upon as a bullish factor and so too was un- favorable weat CT in the Canadian northwest.
 Gossip about Europeans selling back wheat bought in the United States for deferred shipment had more or less do with easing the wheat market in the late dealings. Bears, how ever, were handicapped by price upturns in the New York stock market and in cotton. Besides in die cations continued that wheat farm CTS in the southwest were holding out for better offers and that pool operations on the pert of the grow CTS in canada might also prove eff fective to an equal or greater ex- tent
 Corn decli ct in price as a result of rains which seem. to assure good crop of corn this year unless serious damage by frost occurs. Oats, al- though firm at first, were after ward easier with corn.
 Provisions reflected an advance in hog values.

uyrRRARD BROS, LETTER

NEW YORK, August 6.-(speciaL)-- Liverpool was closed today on account of bank holiday 80 there were no reports from that market. Continued hot weather over Texas with extreme temperatures brought a sharp advance on the opening and the market has worked into new high levels hesitating around the 24-cent level for October. There Is little ques- ton but that this continued heat in Texas Is seriously affecting the crop and It is probably deteriorating rapidly. There was not however. the response from trade sources which might be expected that this advance would have developed. The weather was better in the Atlantic states especially in the south Atlantics where clear warm weather is beginning to make it's appearance. This should be of great benefit if it continues although there is some question whether the boil weevil in that territory has not already gotten in it's damage that clearing weather may be too late. Predictions for the western belt were for some unsettled weather and probably showers in west Texas. How ever, the market held up well and If these showers are not general and do not develop into a general rain. further advance can be expected In the late | afternoon there some very heavy realizing which was we'll taken--Hubbard | Bros, Sz Co.

l ALARM OVER CROP PROSPECT CAUSE
 OF COTTON RISE

NEW YORK, August 6.-Increas- ing alarm over the southwestern crop prospect seemed chiefly -espon- sible for heavy general buying and very sharp advance in the cotton
 market today October deliveries
 sold up to 23.95, making a net ad-
 vance of 135 points, and an upward
 movement of 313 points, or more
 than $15.Oo per bale, from the low
 price touched shortly before the pub lication of the government crop re-
 port last week. That delivery closed
 at 23.74 or about Fl points off from
 the best, with the general market
 closing steady at net advances of
 11S to 150 points.
 The market opened firm at an ad vance of 40 to 57 points on reports
 that the weather had continued dry and hot in the southwest over Sum day. There was quite a lot of real
 izing, but it was very readily ab-
 sorbed by broadening commission
 house demand, and prices showed net advances of 94 to 96 points before
 there was anything more than a mo-
 mentary halt in the upward move
 ment. There were then reactions of
 some 20 to 20 points on the outlook for unsettled weather in the south
 west, but except for realizing, no
 selling developed, and the market
 firmed up again after the publica-
 tion of the detailed weather reports.
 These showed that temperatures had been very high in Texas, while the showers reported in eastern belt sec
 tioHs were followed by increasingly numerous complaints of boil weevil activity, and both these features had stimulating influence on demand. December advanced to 23.90 and Jan
 uary to 29.69, with active months generally showing net gains of 130 to 135 points during the middle of
 the afternoon, and with October sell. inf at very nearly the 24-cent level The demand tapered off at these prices, and there was some reaction
 ary talk around the ring, but realiZ- ing sales were taken on reactions of about 20 points from the best. Re- ports of a slightly better demand for cotton goods doubtless encouraged
 buying, but the main factor was in creasing nervousness over south
 western crop conditions, which have previously been regarded as the most promising in the belt. Port receipts today, 4,15S; United Stats port stock 175,936; Exports, S,S60, making 24,594 so far this season

NEW ORLEANS, August 6.-The con tinued drought and high temperatures over the fields of Texas and Oklahoma completely dominated the cotton market today, putting prices up from the open Ing and keeping them at wide gains market was about s7 a bale over the level of last weeks close.
 Much realizing came from the long side but 1t caused only small reactions from the advance and during good part of the session the range suffered from d scarcity of contracts. Almost no hedge selling was in evidence although private messages from Texas told of large gin ming in the southern half of the state.
 Early gains amounted to very nearly cent a pound on the most active months the heaviest kind of buying ap- bearing on the opening. making 1t evi- dent that buying orders in volume had been accommodating in brokers hands over the weekend. Nothing but the drouth ana nigh temperatures in the west was talked of and private reports painted an unfavorable picture of crop conditions
 When the offical weather map was posted, 1t was accepted as confirming about everything private messages had tions.
 Several small Hetbacks apeared during the day under releasing operations from the long side but after each of them the markets wrung back higher than ever Well into the late trading the active po- sltions were 12S to Al points up with october at 233s cents pound. The close was 112 to IT points net higher on the day with October trading at a range of 23.14 to 23.1e cents.

WALL STREET IN OPTIMISTIC MOOD
 AT WEEKS START


 NEW YORK. August 6.--saturday' s losses in the stock market, resulting largely from the liquidation of in vestors and sepculators alarmed at the possible consequences of q change in administration, were re- covered in today's quiet session.
 Wall Street started the week In a more optimistic frame of mind due to the expressions of confidence in President Coolidge by banking and ->.siness leaders, reports from steel centers of an improvement in for ward buying and circulation of prt- vate cable reports indicating re- sumption of friendly negotiations on reparations between France and Great Britain.
 Trading originated almost entire1y from professional sources, being divided between covering operations of spectators who sold short last week and buying by floor traders who acted on the theory that the market has been oversold at least temporarily. Early in the session, however there was a fair volume of orders from commission houses.
 United States Steel which had sold as low as S6 Saturday, snapped back to SSB. The monthly tonnage state ment which is to be issued on Thurs day is expected to show a decrease Of 100000 tons in thrilled orders Gulf States Steel advanced 29s and Republic and Crucible about a point each.
 Baldwin. studebaker, American Can, and other so-called pivotal stocks also showed net gains of F to nearly ? points on the day. Amer ican Beet Sugar, Manila Sugar, ican Water Works 6 per cent pre- ferred advanced to cents. Motors, motor accessories, and oil shares made moderate gains Coppers were strong on reports of heavy domes- tic demand for the red metal.
 There were a few weak spots in the industrial group, notably Allied Chemical, which was depressed one and half points on publication O. pessimistic reports concerning possi- ble European competition in the local dye market. Kresge dropped 59s points on two transactions. Heavy selling of the St. Paul shares, which touched new lows for the year, failed to unsettle the railroad list in which some excellent gains were recorded. Erie issues were particularly strong, the second preferred gaining 29s
 Call money opened at 41s per cent, the lowest in a month, and then ad- vanced to 5, where 1t closed. The time money and commercial paper markets were dull with no change in rates.
 Trading in foreign exchangers was quiet because of the bank holiday in London. The feature was another collapse in German paper marks which carried them down to soc a million, a week end depreciation of more than 40 per cent in quoted value. Demand sterling dropped about half 8 cent to s4.56h and French francs slumped points to 5.77c.
 Totals stock sales 443, 500 shares.
 Twenty industrials averaged SS.51 net gain 1.31.
 High 1923, 105.3S low S691.
 Twenty railroads averaged 7S.02, net gain 1.24.
