 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of to 31 points on all months except September which was 10 points lower. There were great many overnight selling orders around the ring, and prices eased off several points right after the call but once these initial offerings had been ob- sorbed the market became firmer on the more favorable reports from Liverpool and Manchester rather bet ter European political news and New Orleans report estimating the crop at only 9,600,000 compared with an end October report of 10,7OO000 blaes. he demand was not active, put offerings were light enough to sug- gest that the selling of the last two days had improved the technical posi- tion and the market showed consider able strength during the middle of the morning. December sold up to 33S2c and March 33.11c, making net advances of 42 to 55 points on the active positions. The upturns was checked at these figures by 8 renewal of scattering liquidation or realizing and some additional contracts which had been carried through yesterdays break were probably liquidated on the late reactions of some 20 to 30 points from the best.
 Private cables said the advance in Liverpool was due to better trade demand and covering on brighter political prospects referring, proba- bly to the German situation. Other advices said it was expected that Lancashire spinners would abandon organized short time after this month. Houses with both Liverpool and continental connections were among, the buyers here during the morning and some domestic trade buying was also reported during the earlier trading.

Cotton Prices Are
 Lower During Week

NEW ORLEANS, July 22.-Prices were gradually lower in the cotton market last week, at the lowest be- ing 6S to 235 points under the close of the preceding week on the mora active months in the contract de- partment. July traded as low as 24.25c pound and October as low as 22.52c. The close showed net losses on the we!ek of 5s to 231 points, July closing at 24.29c and October at 22.52c. In the spot depart ment prices lost 26s points on mid ding, which closed at 25c, against 21.75c on the close of this week last year.
 For while a more hopeful feeling regarding the political situation in Europe caused fairly pronounced re- coveries from the early declines of the week, but later on less optimism was felt in this direction, all the more so because there was no sign that Europe was entering the spot markets on this side of the water in a large way. Buying for domestic mills was not much in evidence and reports from both northern and southern mill centers were that further curtailment was about to be put in force. This had not little to do with the declines at the end of the week.
 Most observers called weather con- ditions over the belt mixed, but pri- vate condition reports. issued during the week, claimed that the crop was about holding it's own compared with the condition of year ago. Drouth in Texas and too much rain in the eastern half were the principal sources of complaint, Ginning in creased in south Texas and Florida reported its first bale from the new crop. This coming week the weather over the belt will be of increased importance because Wednesday will end the condition period, and it is generally held that the time of crop deterioration is near at hand in many sections Further drouth in Texas probably would be a buying argu- ment of importance, while rains there, if not too long continued. would stimulate selling movement

DEATH PREFERRED
Paris Woman Would Sooner Die
 Than Be Unable To Bear Children

PARIS. July 22-Madame Leonler preferred death to inability to be- come mother. She was taken to a hospital to undergo a minor opera tiOn and the surgeon discovered she was suffering from cancer.
 The doctor performed the more serious operation, which, while 1t saved her life, deprived her of all hopes of motherhood.
 T would rather die than go through life without children" said Madame Leonier, filing suit for 35,000 francs. The doctor should have arrested the minor operation brought me out of the anaesthetiC and consulted me concerning the other operation. I would never have given my consent"
 The Paris courts decided against Madame Leonier.

r |NANC|AL MARKET VERY DULL AFFAIR
 DURING LAST WEEK
Fractional Improvement Is Recorded By High Grade
 Investment Bonds

NEW YORK, July 22.-(By Asso- ciated Press )-High grade invest ment bonds recorded fractional i'm provements during the past week and many of the low priced issues inn proved to greater degree the latter being influenced by the better tone which prevailed in the stock market toward the end of the week.
 On the whole. however, the market was a dull affair with a relatively small volume of transactions. New bond offerings fell off to $10,673. .000, or only about half the total of s21,- 62s,OOO offered the previous week.
 The dullness of the market was in dicated by the fact that officers of many investment houses were on vacation while bond salesmen also ere enjoying holiday.
 Time money rates were some what stiffer, but few loans were made. Banks generally held out for A per cent while brokers were bidding 9 per cent.
 There was a noticeable increase in the demand for foreign government bonds a number of the French issues advancing a point or more on the week. South American issues gener- ally were steady, but Argentine bonds and the Mexican issues moved forward slightly.
 Speculative industrial liens moved upward with the stocks. although there was some selling on saturday Railroad mortgages were in fairly large volume and the demand covered both the high grade dividend paylnS roads and liens of the non-dlvidend payers. Advances ranged from large fractions to more than four points In a few cases railroad mortgages fell off, but by far the majority im- proved.
 Important new offerings included; S3.75O, 900, one to ten-year, per cent equipment bonds of the Central Rall- road of New Jersey at prices to yleIu .O5 to 5.20 per cent; S3,25O,O0O four year 6l2 per cent gold notes or the Penn Ohio Edison company at 9o to yield 715 per cent. and Sl,O00'ooo IV to 30-year Az per cent road ponus oL Northampton county, Pennsylvania at prices to yield 4,05 per cent
