JULY LIQUIDATION
DOMINANT FACTOR
INCOTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, June 14.-Jury liquid
alton was the dominating factor In
the cotton market again today. Tn
expectedly bullish figures on domes-
tic consumption for the month of
May caused rather sharp rallies from
an early decline, but the buying was
soon supplied and prices reached the
lowest levels of the day in the late
trading. July sold off to 27.11c Or
SO points net lower and 169 points
above the high price of last Monday.
The near month weakness pulled
down the later months with October
selling at 24.45c or AZ points net
lower, and the close was within 4 or
5 points of the lowest with the mar
ket barely steady at net declines of
SO to 90 points.
The market opened barely steady
at decline of to &c points on the
more active months while August was
60 points lower. There was selling
on disappointing Liverpool cables and
better weather reports from the south
which sent the active positions about
33 to 46 points net lower before the
end of the first hour. The market
then rallied on the census report
showing domestic consumption of
620,965 bales for the month of May
or the second largest for any one
month on record. The recent reports
of mill curtailment had prepared the
trade for lower figures, and there
was furry of covering or fresh
buying which sent the market back
to within few points of yesterdays
closing quotations. This buying soon
subsidized, however, and the market
was very weak during the afternoon
under renewed July liquidation, ac-
companied by rumors that some
southern mills were offering spots
for resale or to exchange October de-
livery. Reiterated reports of New
England mill curtailment were also
a factor on the decline, while the
failure of the consumption figures
to stimulate a broader demand was
evidently disappointment to recent
buyers. Near months were relatively
weak all day, July closing only 265
points above October, compared with
3O2 points yesterday. Port receipts
3.O39. United States port stocks 953-
$40. Exports 5,444, making 4,514, 763
so far this season.

SCIENCE SAVES CHILD
N-Hay Used With Success When Res
peration Ceases

NEW YORK. June listing an
X-ray to wither the thymus of a
three day -old baby. who faced death
because of inability to breathe
Dr. Mary Halton saved the infant's
life after artificial desperation had
been resorted to for "a hours. il be-
came known today. The thymus
gland is an organ found only in in
fants, the purpose OF which has long
puzzled physicians.
The baby. a daughter of Mr. ano
Mrs. Samuel Schwarz. was brought to
the New York Infirmary for Women
and Children ten days ago She APP
peared normal AT birth, but two days
later stopped breathing. The baby
was rushed to the infirmary where
tanks of oxygen were used to save
her life. Physicians explained that
before birth child does not breathe
and expressed the belief that the
thymus gland, which normally afro
phies after the child enters the
world. has something to do with pre-
serving life in the pre-nat tai months.
N-ray examination revealed that the
Schwarz baby's gland refused to die
and started growing. Dr. Halton
then decided to apply a whitening
treatment by N-rsy and the gland
began to atrophy. Six hours afte1
the treatment the child breathed nor
mally.

SUGAR MARKET

NEW YORK, June 14.-There was no
change in raw sugar prices, but steadier

trifugal. with duty free sugars at the
same level. The les amounted to II, 900
bags of Cubas to refners and operators
for June shipment and 1000 bags of Phil
ippines for July arrival.
There was continuation of-yesterdayA
selling movement at the opening of the
raw sugar futures market, and prices
broke 10 to 81 points. The selling seemed
to come from houses with Wall street
connections and attributed to Euro
pean and japanese account. Stop loss
lers were encountered on the decline, but
offerings we've readily taken and there
was a sharp reaction on covering and re-
newed buying for outside account, with
prices regaEng all the early decline and

Rams Head Players
In French Pantomime

The RAMS Head Players. under
direction OF Robert Bell and Walter
w. Beck, will offer. as their ffth
production OF tho season, Wednes-
day evening, the French pantomime
by Michel Carre, flls, 'LEnfant
Prologue" with music by Andre
Wormser. It is probable that nothing
so unusual in the line Of dramatic
presentation has been given In Wash
ington for a long time, and keen
interest and anticipation are being
shown In this latest Offering of the
Rams Head Players in their band
box playhouse this week.
The fact that Mrs Franklin Ellis
will play the very lovely music score
with which the composer has in
vested the pantomime lends an addi-
tionaI interest to the performance.
1t 10 difficult to realize that the
Rams Head Players season will 50
soon be- over. only one other produc-
tion remaining to be made after
'L'Enfant Prologue" but an extra
added attraction" Is to be the produc-
tion by the Rams Head Players of
the prize play or plays for which
q contest has just been inauEurated
and to which all young Washington
authors and playwrightS are asked
to contribute" their best efforts In
