$2,000 HAWES PRIZE SEPT. 6 LAFAYETTEI FOR ADVENTURE STORY DAY OF CELEBRATION
Atlantic Monthly Press Seeks
 Authors Successor

BOSTON, August 26.-Two thou sand dollars in cash, to be known as the Charles Boardman Hawes prize is offered by the Atlantic Monthly Press for the manuscript of a story of adventure. preferably not less than 60000 words. to he sent to the At lantie Monthly offices, B Arlington Street. Boston, between September l, 1923. and October l, 1924.
 Charles Boardman Hawes is the author of three books of adventure on the high seas "The Mutineers,' ,' "The Great Quest and "The Dark Frigate." Both here and in England, he is recognized as a leading writer of adventure tales, dealing with ships and sailors before the days f mod ern steamboats, and his sudden death last July, at the age of 34 when he was virtually on the threshold of a brilliant career, is a distinct loss to American literature. The Atlantic Monthly Press offers this prize in recognition of his fine work, and in the hope of discovering another au- thCr sufficiently gifted to succeed to Mr. Hawes' place as a writer of ad- venture stories.

STUCK MARKET IS KEEPING EYE ON
 STRIKE PROSPECT
Situation, However, Ap- parentIy Is Exercising Little
 Influence On Securities

NEW YORK, August 26,-(By As kociated Press )-The principal fi- nancial market this week kept R sharp eye on the possibility of a suspension of work in the hard coal fields September 1, but the situation apparently exercised little influence cn securities. Some traders pro- fessed confidence that agreement be- tween operators and miners still would be reached. Others asserted that in either case any interruption to trade would not be felt for some time.
 Influences which might have aided bears had the stock market been In a less liquidated position was the situation in the oil industry and tho l ature of the French reply to the British note on the Ruhr. As it was, sthere came 9 brisk rally in French exchange.
 ' Nervousness engendered by reduc- ,tions in gasoline prices, continued ligh production of oil and the fear ~of a cut in mid-continent crude prices have been heightened by an- nou9cement of reductions in the 6ividend rate by two of the leading ; oil companies.
 Other high lights of the week in- eluded a decided quiekening Tn 5 wholesale and retail trade and Trmer commodity prices.
 { While many adverse factors have retarded the appearance Of the usual signs of autumn improvement in trade, they are now beginning to ap- pear The decline in pig iron appar- , ently has been halted and coke and zinc prices have rallied Heavy de- liveries of steel during the summer were absorbed more rapidly than lnapN had eSOacted
 Meanwhile railroad buying has been a strong supporting influence. 4 Railroad earning statements for July are beginning to appear and for the most part gross revenues exceed those of q year ago and the previous ! month. Large expenditures for main- tenance has resulted in some decline in net operating income, With the : grain movement getting under way and autumn traffic just around the corner. the carriers, fortified by rec ord earnings for seven months of the year, are facing the future with confidence. In the commodity mar lsets New England cotton spinneTs apparently have become convinced thats the long continued drouth in the southwest is going to cut down appreciably this years crop and the speculative buying of print cloths in the Fall River market last week was, the heaviest in nearly a year. Wheat, under the stimulus of a shorter crop in prospect in Canada, enjoyed a brisk rise.

TRADING IN BONDS LAST WEEK SHOWS
 UNDERTONE FIRM.
All Active United States IS- sues Close Week Moder-
 ateIy Above Former Week

NEW YORK, August 26.-CBy As sociated Press.) )-Aside from specula- tive fluctuations in foreign bonds, trading in bonds during the past week, disclosed a firm undertone with net changes relatively small New offerings for the week totalled S30,376 900 as compared with S42,041,- 900 the preceding week. Of last weeks total, $24,275,000 were rail road mortgages which the offering bankers stated we're readily sold.
 All of the active United States government bonds closed the week moderately above quotations at the end of the previous week with the exception of the tax exempt E which declined 2-S2 of a point in dull trading.
 Chief interest during the week centered in the French government and municipal bonds which moved up or down as the days news from abroad influenced the traders. These bonds, however, were practically un- changed at the weeks close.
 Mexican bonds improved on an- nouncement that 8 formal statement may be expected soon extending American government recognition to that republic. South American bonds moved within narrow limits with net changes relatively unimportant De spite several cabled dispatches from
 
 Argentine government had decided to accept the offer of an American syndicate of a 60 million loan to re- fund it's short term debt in this eoun- try local bankers indicated that for nal agreement on details had not yet been concluded. The offer, how ever, is expected next week.
 Industrial liens generally improved in dull trading. Pierce Arrow Ss closed the week about points higher and Derry & Co moved up nearly points. Oil Company mort gages were in supply but net losses were held to about a point. There was further talk of Oil Company loa..f to be floated at an early date, but no definite announcements en- sued.
 Erie Railroad bonds were heavily traded in, advances in the various is sues ranging from a point to more than three points. Railroad mort gages generally were about evenly divided between gains and losses with net changes comparatively small
 Chief offerings of the week were: $14,000,000 , per cent S0year mort gage bonds of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company at prices to yield 5.25 per cent and S6,000,000 per cent l to 15-year equipment trust certificates of the same road at prices to yield 5.25 per cent; and s4,275,00 per cent 1 to 15-year New York, Chicago md St Louis Railroad company equipment trust equipments at prices to vield 0.25 to 5.A0 per cent.

M o d crate AdUances Ruled Past Week In Dixie Cotton Belt

NEW ORLEANS, August 26.-Mod- crate advances ruled the greater part of last week in the cotton market. the trading prices at the highest be- ing 61 to 70 points over the close of the preceding week. At one stage prices were , to 20 points under the close of the preceding week. Last prices showed net gains of to 27 points, October closing at 23.49 cents a pound after having traded as low a 23.32 and as high as 24.03. Prices ranged over GS To 8 points, taking the whole list into consideration. Tn the spdt e fep3T3nYeHt middling lost 75 points in the net results closing at 24.25 cents a pound, which price compared with 2t.75 on the close of this week last year.
 Much better trade accounts were one of the main supporting in flueuces and they helped to offset the effect of the breaking of the drouth over large areas of the vest ern belt. According to messages re- ceived here, Fall River sales of print cloths for the week were estimated largest sales in months. At the end of the week both Memphis and Houston were reporting better spot demand, the former stating that southern spinners were trying to op- crate in that market. while sales El It0UNAON on tut NlooliE nCoS4NAi aggregated 17.637 bales. the largest single days trading thus far this <casqn 2t any of the southern spot g. 2rkets.
 Very low private crop condition re- ports were a constant support and because all private reports were low t.e trade at the weekend had ar r.ved at the conclusion that the governments report on the crop this coming week was likely to show more than the usual August deterio- ration. Private reports on condition ranged from 55.9 per cent of normal up to SIG. with indicated crop fig ures ranging from l0.490,000 bales up to u,2SS 5000. Condition figures compared with the governments July 25 condition percentage of G7.2 and it's indicated crop of 1151G,000 bales.
