yield 12,144,00O bales. All these figures were higher than current estimate and led to quite sharp decline in the mar ket, with speculative sentiment decided ly bearish. On the decline, prices were steadied by a good demand from the trade, who; in light of past experience with weevil crops, are perfectly willing to take on some of their supplies at what Is after all a price below the average of last season. Whether this trade demand will prove sufficient to prevent a further temporary recession in values remains to be seen. In any event, the more distant future of the market continues to depend upon the progress of the crop. It must also be remembered this season that, with larger crop and a more reasonable price, the consumption of American cot ton will automatically tend to increase rather rapidly. In the month of July with the two critical months of July and August ahead of us, we would ad- wise considerable caution in becomirhg too bearish at a price level which, in view of the supply situation, cannot be considered extremely high. The July position here maintains It's premium above the fall months, but is not of great importance in the general market

FOREIGN BONDS ] SHOW STRENGTH Most Of List Fluctuates Unevenly In Days
 Trading

NEW YORK, July 2-Bond prices Auctuated unevenly in today's trading, which was featured by the strength and activity of foreign issues and an extension of recent gains by Wilson & Co. obligations.
 Selling at 103, the French Ss estab- hshed new level for the year, but later receded fractionally. Various French municipal liens also registered moderate improvement, several issues duplicating recent high prices.
 The advance of the Wilson mort gages was attributed mainly to specula- tive buying based on expectations that the new refinancing plan would be favorable te' bondholders. Net gains for the day ranged from IFS to SIS points with the 71a's advancing at one time more than 5 points. /.
 Mixed price movements prevailed in the rail list, gains of about a point in Canadian Pacific As and Iowa Ger tral 5's being offset by losses in Erie nd other low priced liens. l'

NEW ORLEANS, July 2.-The-cotton market declined sharply today as a result of the returns to the government as of June 25, indicating larger crop than generally expected. For the first time in four years, prospects are for an adequate supply Of American raw cot ton, which the world will likely need for next season. For the first week since June 25, the crop has undoubted- ly improved further. While it is likely for the market to work somewhat lower before today's government report has been fully digested by the trade, no further important decline Is anticipated, unless the weather and crop accounts remain generally favorable, in which case the prospective yield would prob ably become larger, as the acreage will be a fixed feature. for the remainder of the season; and, if the condition of the crop continues to improve, indica- tions for a larger production would be only natural. In the meantime, there Is the possibility of interesting develop ments in the July option here and iii New York.-H. and B. Beer to J. F. Willingham & Co.

COTTON BREAKS
 MORE THAN CENT
Crash Follows Govern ment Report On Crop
 Prospects

NEW YORK. July 2.-The govern ment report indicating a crop of l2, IA, ,OO0- bales was followed by break of over a cent pound in the cotton market today. October sold off from 25.32 to 2415, or 103 points net lower and closed at 241S, the general mar -ket closing barely steady at net de- cline of 91 to 106 points.
 The market was steady early on comparatively firm cables and reiterated reports of excessive rain in the east ern belt. July sold up to 30 cents and December to 2460 in the first few min utes but net increased offerings at, these figures. Later selling on the unexpectedly bearing government report was stimulated for favorable weekly weather review and belief that the crop has improved since the govern ment's condition of TIP was made up as of June 25. July broke to 2SS0 and December 2350. Some trade buy ing was reported on the decline but the close was at nearly the lowest.

 NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 NEW ORLEANS July 2.-The cotton market developed sharp decline in prices today. following the publication of the government report showing the condition of the crop on June 25 to have been 71.2 per cent of normal, the acre. age 40.403, ,000, or an increase of A per cent, and the indicated crop 12,144, 900 bales, exclusive of linters. Prices dropped 72 points within five minutes NQ he ftv1aA kA HNa.v41 ,-h fo- sued; and, although there was a small rally. and steady feeling for a time, prices ebbed off again in the late trad ing. July advanced g points in the early trading, to 28.13c, and, after tbe bureau report, declined to 27.01c, or 112 points down from the high. October was points up early, at 24.5Oc, but sank to 23.37c later, decline of 113 points from the high. The other new-crop months followed about the same course. The close was practically at the low of the day, showing net losses compared with yesterdays close of 90 points on July and 9S to 104 points on new-crop months.
 The government report was a great surprise to the trade, both in the matter of condition and indicated crop. The condition improved 56 points during June, against an average improvement during that month in the last 10 years of only 2 points. The increase in acre age of A per cent was about in line with expectations, but the indicated crop of 12,144,000 was 100000 to 500,0 ,000 bales larged than anybody looked for.
 Considering the sensational character of the government report, most traders thought that the market had acted well, and the decline was much less than might have been expected from the larger crop indication than looked for. Weather news was generally favorable, and the weekly weather and crop sum mary. was quite as favorable as ex- pected; but these, and all other de- velopments, were ignored, owing to the interest taken in the monthly govern ment report.

COTTON LETTERS

NEW ORLEANS, July 2-The cot ton market was surprised with an ebti- mate from the government that was higher than even the most bearish pri- vatesbureaus. That the decline was not more extensive was probably due to general belief that the bureaus condi- tion was too high and its acreage fig ures excessive. There was a good deal of covering by shorts taking profits on the decline, and this probably helped to sustain the market to some extent. The government shows an improve ment during the month of 5.6 points, compared with 2.S points shown by the private bureaus. We believe the gov ernment| condition too high and its acreage figures inflated. In the mean time, bearish sentiment is apt to be encouraged and selling stimulated until there Is a decided change in the crop outlook.-Fenner- & Beane to Kahn & Virgin.
 NEW YORK, July 2.-Sales of 5000 to 5000 July on the opening were read fly absorbed, and its premium went to 4T5 points over October, but later eased off. Trading in new-cfop months previ- ous to the report was light and mostly eyening-up. The government, report was a surprise, coming points better than the private average-just the re- verse of last month. Prices dropped 60 points, to around 24.50c for October, where the market met a demand to fix prices, and also short covering.

That
  Feeling of Independence

There is nothing that gives a man such a feeling of independ- ence as money saved and invest ed-something that represents his own efforts and sacrifices. And it helps a lot to have that invest ment pay well and be in such form that he can get cash from it in case of need.
 Jim Tunney, a railroad fireman here in Birmingham, is one of a great number who has found just that kind of investment. It is the Gold Notes of the Trustees Loan & Guaranty company.
 These notes bear 6 per cent in- terest, may be converted into cash on agreed interest dates, and come in convenient denominations of $25 and up.
 The fact that the Notes are backed by the Trustees Loan 6 Guaranty company gives them special value with many Birming- ham people who are familiar with this institution's ten years of constructive service to the com munity.
