HUNTERS IMPART A BETTER
 TONE TO MARKET

NEW YORK, June 22.-Buying by bargain hunters" combined with the moro favorable sentiment over the immediate course of prices, gave the bond market a considerably bet ter tone today and substantial ral- lies were noted throughout the list.
 United States government bonds, which have held relatively firm throughout the week, continued steady with the Liberty issues reg isterfng small gains. Gains of a point or more were recorded by Mex ican As and 5s and the Bolivian Ss and other foreign government issues improved fractionally.
 Buying in the rail group extended to both the high grade investment issues. Five different bonds of the Erie railroad advanced one point each. Reading general 4s ran coun- ter to the general trend, losing 1s on the day.
 Industrial liens also were in good demand and showed moderate gains. Tobacco company liens, particularly were bought at advancing prices and sugars, public utility and oil issues showed fair gains.
 Total sales, par value. were $10.- s5S,ooo.
 Public offerings expected Monday of s45,00O,000 20-year A per cent federal farm loan bonds at a price slightly above par.

ROASTED SURPL U5 M l RE APPARENT THAN REAL, CLAIM
Said That Republican Esti- mate Is Based On Jug
 gled Figures
WASHINGTON BUREAU l
 THE AGE-AERALD Washington, D, C., June 22 |

Democrats scout the idea that there will be any actual. tangible surplus in the treasury July 1, the beginning the new fiscal year.
 Claims to such effect reiterated by the Secretary of the Treasury An drew ". Mellon, who will soon go to Europe on q pleasure jaunt, and the President, who has begun his political junket to the west, are based, according to democratic lead CTS, on juggling of figures, and d desire to impress the country for political effect.
 According to the democratic na- tional committee, the only benefit to the people a surplus could al ford would be a reduction in tax ation. There has been no reduc- tion, and if there be a reduction in the next session of Congress, 1t will result from victorious fight br democrats and progressives over the reactionary or administration win of the republican party, 1t is de clared.
 The committee. denying that there will be a surplus, contends tha- there should be as result of greater income from tariff receipts, and the cessation of expenditures groWins out of the World war. Here is the explanation of the committed:
 During the fiscal year, the gov ernment sold and used S3S0.000,0oo of capital and applied the amount to the reduction of an obvious de ficit. In addition, the war and navy departments furnished to, other dc- partments $G0.O00. .000 worth of sup plies which. otherwise, the govern ment would have been required TO purchase. It requires no argument to convince the person of intel ligence that business could not Ions be conducted by making up deficits from sale and use of capital assets. applied to payment of the national debt, but was applied to current eX- penses."
 And that is not the whole story, according to the committee.
 "rhe threatened huge deficit. continues the committee. was als reduced by S31l.541,0 ,0O0 in estimated expenditures This sum simply rep resents money the government es- timated it would spend on construe- ton fer the emergency fleet cor poration. on railroad administration and on post roads.
 There was no construction by thu emergency fleet corporation. Tho railroads financed themselves. The failure of some states to co-operata 70 on road construction made it impos- siblc for the government to spend a part of that appropriation.
 "The money derived from the sale of capital assets, such as farm loa9 bonds; repayment With interest oi foreign loans, and sale Of war sup plies and other government property would more than overcome Secretary MellOns estimated surplus.

NEW YORK COTTON FUTURES
NEW ORIEANs CnTToN

NEW ORLEANS June 22-Aside from small and short-lived declines soon after the opening the cotton market today was in the grip of an advancing tendency which constantly urged prices into new high ground in the fact of what was con sidered to be about the most favorable weather of the season. Back of the buy ing were boil weevi complaints, coming from many of the most important sections of the belt, and two private bureau reports on the crop, showing deterioration for the month.
 In the early trading prices were momen- tarily to points under the close of yes- terday on the more active months July failing off to P .25c and October to "A. 16c. This small decline was due more to poor cables than to anything else. Private con- dition reports soon had their effect and the market rose. As the advance pro- gressed many small recessions were met, but prices always recovered and made new high levels for the day, so that the high est levels were not reached until the late trading, when July stood at 27 7sc and Oc- tober at 24 65c. Here the list showed gains over yesterdays last quotations of 50 to 50 points. Tho close was 33 to 3s points net higher on the day, with July at a range of 27 64c to 27 49c and Octo- Der at range of 24 5Sc to 24. Gle.
 UT the two private reports one placed the condition of the crop at 71 per cent or normal against 72.3 about a month ago, and the indicated crop at 10,74O.0 900 against 12.64o,o 900; the other made condi- tion 6S. against 70 month ago. and the indicated crop 1o,450,oo0 against 10,- 950.0

WHEAT RISES ON UNUSUAL ABSENCE RF HEDGE SALES

CHICAGO. June 22.-Wheat tended upward in price today, stimulated py unusual absence of hedging sales from the southwest and by lack or rain In North Dakota: Closing quo. tations were firm, Ac to 1Ac net higher, with September s1.o5ss Q 105la and December $l:o7A @ IS. Corn finished at Ac to 1Ac gain. after the July delivery had touched a new high price record for the sea son at SAC. Oats closed Ac to %c up and provisions 20 to Dc down.
 Notwithstanding that the winter wheat harvest Is general throughout northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas, as well as the Texas Pan- handle. 1t became more and more apparent today that hedging sales against the new crop were lacking in volume. Reports were current in this connection that farmers would hold their wheat until the price was more satisfactory, and 1t was point cd out that after 23c decline here Of late rally was perhaps to be eX- pected.
 Bidding up of the wheat market in the late trading resulted chiefly from North Dakota drought reports. Although rains had fallen at numer- ous points in the state, tho weather there was hot, and 1t was asserted that the wheat crop was going back ward in the sections where moisture was deficient. Earlier in the day un- favorable crop reports from France gave some emphasis to bullish senti- ment, but export buying failed to follow the price bulges. and during the middle of the market receoeo frequently as result.
 Shorts were anxious buyers in the corn market, and although some in crease of country offerings to arrive here was reported, much of the gains in prices were held at the finish. Oats followed corn.
 Declines in the value of hogs weakened the provision market.

COTTON MARKET SHOWS EFFECT OF
 BULLISH REPORTS

NEW YORK, June 22.-The cotton market showed the effect of bu!jish private reports on end June acreage and crop prospects again during to- days trading. The subsistence of July liquidation evidently left the market freer to reflect the growing apprehension of another short yield and moderate volume of trade buy- ing was reported on the advance which carried October contracts up to 25.20c or 40 points net higher July sold at 27.74c, making net advance of 51 points and last prices were within few points of the best, with the market closing irregular at net advances of 20 to 42 points.
 The market opened steady at an advance of 8 to 14 points on steady Liverpool cables. Considerable real iZing was taken on moderate set backs right after the opening and the market soon turned firmer on the bullish crop reports Two of these were published during the morning, one of them making the condition 6S.5, the increase in acre age per cent and the indicated yield 10,450,o00 bales. The other placed the condition at 71, the in- crease in acreage at S.5 per cent and the indicated crop 10.740,000 bales. The better of the two reports w,ts commented upon as pointing to an inadequate supply, and buying on the figures seemed to become q little more general following the an nual report of a prominent authority placing the acreage at 36,933, 900, or an increase of S.57 per cent and com mently very unfavorably on the new crop start. The better tone to the stock market was an encouragement to buying on the crop outlook and commission house demand became more active on the late advance of Gays closing quotations. December some 40 to 51 points above yester- sold at 24.71c and closed at 24.62c, and last prices were within 9 to 12 points of the best. The days weather nc Ws was considered generally fa- vbrable except for showers reported s7 Georgia, but there were a great lAany reports of insects and boil wee VII. Port receipts today, 6,507 bales.

HUBBARD,s LETTER

NEW YORK, June 22.-The cotton mar ket met and absorbed all profit-taking during the morning. Further conditions reports confirm ideas that the bureau re- port will show reduction during June.
