RIFF GRABBING SPLITS SENATE COALITION GROUPS
FIGHT FOR DUTY
ON LEATHER
TOTAL

Protection fraternities.. and
PARTISAN alliances were shattered
completely in the Senate today as
that body entered the waning
stages Of the tariff wars, with
another struggle over duties on
hides, leather and shoes.
The Senate, instead of dividing
into cliuues, alliances and coali-
lions on this schedule, split along
geographical lines. The middle
west and cattle-range country
fought for tariffs on hides. The
New England group desired pro-
lection on shoes. The advocates
OF protection on leather drew a
scattered support from various
sections.
Big Alliance Split
The Vaunted billion-dollar tariff
alliance, successful in providing
rich protection for sugar, cement
and glass, kept it's hands off the
pending contests. It's ranks were
badly divided, while the Demo
cratic Insurgent coalition seemed
70 have disappeared The InSur-
gents led the fight for protection
on hides and leather while gen
orally opposing duties on shoes.
This was in line with their policy
OF aiding agriculture, but refusing
increased tariff aid to industry.
There seemed no doubt of the
outcome. Even administration
leaders admitted that hides,
leather and shoes would remain on
the free list. This was the verdict
OF the Senate in January and it
seemed likely to be reaffirmed.
This was shown in the preliminary
voting when proposals to place
duties on hides land leather were
defeated.
The first test came on a propo-
sal by Senator Howell (R.) of Ne
braska, an Insurgent leader, to
place q duty Of S cents a pound on
green hides and 8 cents a pound on
dried hides.

CORN FUTURES
SHARPLY UP ON
WEATHER NEWS
Wheat Closes Higher De-
spite Hedging Pressure;
Oats Show Gain.
BIZ United Press

BU United Press
CHICAGO. July 18.-Wheat closed
sharply higher On the Board Of
Trade today despite heavy hedging
pressure and profit taking sales. The
undertone was flrm and the sea-
board was good buyer. Conf1rma-
ton of rust in parts of Canada was
received, adding 10 the already very
bullish reports from that country.
Dry weather still prevails over>the
spring wheat sections of the Ameri-
can northwest with no relief in
sight. Corn failed to hold the best
prices but vas sharply higher. Oats
were firm.
Liverpool Up
At the close wheat was rs to rs
cents higher, corn was rs to rs
cents higher and oats were Il to
l cent higher. Provisions were weak
on meats but strong on lard.
Advancing as the session drew to
a close, Liverpool was 70 to y cent
higher at the last. Exporters report
that considerable quantities were
taken overnight, but no figures were
available, the market was not very
active early as traders were nervous
and cautious, expecting a break in
the heat wave that the forecast
would not promise. Cash prices were
u to cent lower, Receipts were
COS cars.
Corn Is Bought
General buying Of corn at the
start sent prices nearly 2 cents
higher and while there was not
much pro1t-taking, the market
steadied at slightly over cent up
at mid-Session. Traders saw no
easing in the situation while the hot
weather lasts and temperatures were
quite high with the weather clear.
At Phillipsburgh, Kan, Thursday
the reading was ITO degrees. The
pastures were burned up and there
is shortage of water. Cash prices
were u cent higher. Receipts were
124 cars.
Oats partook of the advance in
the major cereals to the extent of
4 to q cent, but there was not
much action early, traders devoting
most of their attention to corn.
Cash prices were unchanged. Re-
ceiptS were twenty-four cars.

In the Cotton Markets
nv Thomson 4 McKinnonl

NEW YORK, July 18.-The trade
was disposed to look at weather
conditions this morning. Not only
the shorts, but dealers also want
ed cotton.
Prices were IS points higher in
the second hour. Experts who sold
Thursday on the possibilities OF
showers in Texas were good buy
ers today and failed to find any in
dication on the map of drouth re-
lief. When precipitation does ap-
pear it is apt to mislead traders,
because showers will cause a re-
action, whereas nothing but soak
ing rain can do much for the
crcp.
American spinners have been
holding back their buying, most of
the purchases having been for Eu-
rope. Naturally the American con-
tingent is nervous. No one is bold
enough to predict bull market.
The action of other commodities has
been too discouraging, but We have
condition now more bullish than
some on which big advances have
been based in years gone by.
