Knew of Forgeries.
"The Mexican Government knew of
the existence of the forged documents
that are now being used, long before
their publication began;
The Mexican Government was adj
vised that said documents were going
to be used in the way they are being
used now; they were offered for sale
to the Mexican Government, but the
Government refused to be black
mailed;
Mexico and the Mexican Govern
ment have not and have never had
any colonizing, material nor terri
torial interests in Nicaragua;
''The Mexican Government has not
and never has had any interest in the
proposed construction by the United
states of a transoeeanic Canal in
Nicaragua;
1.-THE Mexican Government has no
secret treaty in existence with any
country.
Proof of Dishonesty.
While the absurdity of an inter
national compact Of the nature of the
one purporting to have been entered
into between the Mexican Government
and certain Nicaraguan politicians is
self obvious, to show to the laynan
the grossness of the forgery of the
supposed documents printed yester-
day, be it sufficient to quote from the
Washington Herald and associated
Hearst newspapers the very first
words of the forged document, which
follow: "To the Citizen President of
the Chamber of Deputies" and to add
that IN Mexico, exactly as in the Uni
ted States, now as in the past. the
treaty ratifying power is exclusively
vested on the SENATE and that the
Chamber of Deputies, its President n
Guided, have nothing to do with it,"

that the stories printed in the Hearst

that the story of secret Japanese

another private report pointing to a

The failure of the small cotton crop

pearance at midday, placing the con-
dition at GA and the indicated yield

of the figures failed to inspire much

NEW YODK, August 1s,-The
renewal rate of 31a per cent for
call money today and the easing of
In time rates kept the bond market on
an even keel and strengthened the
position of the United States Treasury
with respect to its September financ
Ing.
Quite a number of high grade in
vestment issues and others of more
speculative character moved upward
into new high ground. The improve
ment in legal class under renewed buy
ing by banks and insurance companies
has stimulated the market for tax
exempt issues and relieved the en-
barrassing congestion existing in it
ever since the last New York City sale.
Effect on Gilt-edged Bonds.
AS an illustration of the effect of
the declining money rates on prices of
gilt-edged bonds. United States Steel
sinking fund Sc sold today at the new
high price OF 109%, at which they
yield 4.45 per cent. The bonds now
are at approximately the figure at
which a certain number are drawn
each year. so there is no further adj
vantage in buying these bonds for the
substantial premium that was possible
earlier to obtain over the purchase
price. The United States Steel Corpo-
ration has now taken up sac 500, 900 of
the SIS, which remain alive in it's treas
ury and draw interest.
The United States Government list
was firm, with the new 3ss per cent
bonds at about 101. Practically all
the new AVS and ANS railroad bonds
were at a premium over their original
price.
In the Industrial department con-
vertible bonds took the lead. J. Kay

Railroad List Features.
In the railroad list Fries, New Ha-
vens, Friscos, ST. Paul. Seaboard Air

suit OF profit taking following their

Weighing human emotions shrewdly,
the author carries her story to high
dramatic pitch. Her characters are
drawn with Il shrewdness that comes
only from high skill.
