Discussion of the Value of
Travel.
Ry B. C. FORBES.
NEW YORK, June 20. It does us good
rub against our fellows. We are all
fl P‘ to slide into a rut and stay there,
narrowed in vision and fossilized in ideas.
'' wise man once said that the best rec
itation was a change of work—meaning
! ° turn temporarily from one subject to
another. He might have added that a
r i ange of scene, a change of surround
■ngs and an exchange of views with other
minds would form an excellent substitute.
x "thing is more refreshing, more broad
ening. more stimulating and more pro
ductive of wisdom and toleration. It
'eaches us that our own little groove is
■°t all important. that other people have
rows to hoe and problems to solve, and
ha. what looms so tremendously large to
may not, after all. affect tlie fate of
nations.

"r.e thing I learned, nm without some

proper functions are nol grasped, but its

against Wall Street and all that the
Phrasr implies as the unfortunate fellow
"ho has boon induced to speculate on
ir-rgin and has lost every cent. He is
an enemy of “finance" for life even
though the fault was nine-tenths or whol
ly his own.
The man who merely invests in a legit
imate stock or bond and earns a steady
return on his money is not apt to rail
against capital and capitalists without
rhyme --r reason. Happily, the United
Stairs is today rearing more investors
and fewer speculators. This is of incal
'•idable value alike from a financial, a
political and an economic point of view.
We have been told from influential
sources of late that the people are not
bothering their heads over politics. This
is not true. Within the last ten days I
have talked with perhaps two hundred
people of all classes, from agricultural la
borers. railroad porters and waiters to
the heads of the principal railroads, banks
and industrial enterprises in the United
States and Canada. but in no stratum of

New Orleans 1.00 to 300 335
The New Orleans r l’imes-IJemocrat says:
Everything seemed to favor the bearish
contention at the opening of yesterday's
cotton market, and low priced sentiment
gathered force with the progress of the
early session. Before the opening the tal
ent had an acreage decrease of only .54
of 1 per cent, promulgated by a leading
statistical authority. Thpn came word
from a big operator, after a visit to
Texas, he felt convinced that state would
make 6.000.000 bales this year. At this
stage of the procee<lings somebody whis
pered to the ring that the manifest bul
letin hoard had the real dope about the
transfer of tender cotton from Galveston
to New Orleans and the desperate des
monds started a procession thereto ’l’hc
bulletin showed that the Eclid had
brought 251 bales, and the El monte 200
bales. Immediately wires sent out tip
ping off the country that plenty of ten
der cotton would be available in New Or
leans during July. Subsequently, inves
tigation revealed the fact that of the 154
bales brought by water from Galveston
to New Orleans during the railroad tie
up in the overflowed country, 198 bales
were consigned to a New Orleans export
er. who is credited with holding long
contracts in July. The remaining 258
bales arc being shipped 1o six separate
Southern mill points in Georgia. South
Carolina and North Carolina. 'This in
formation checked the spread of bearish
sentiment, or rather called a halt on the
work, of the enthusiast.

Commission Houses and Spot
Interests Best Purchasers of
Fleecy Staple.
NKW YORK, June 20.—The cotton mar
ket on the opening showed a net loss
from yesterday’s final of 5 to it points.
Liverpool cables came about as expected,
with a good business in spot cotton. The
weather conditions reported splendid:
cloudy to cool in the Atlantic districts,
with the same scattered light showers In
the western half. The early trading was
moderate.
The bear pressure on the opening was
due to the favorable weather conditions
over the belt. This caused the sharp
decline shown on the opening. Shortly
after the opening heavy buying began to
set in by commission bouses who usually
represent the uptown crowd and the Bell
interest. This buying caused prices to
iake a jump covering the entire decline
made on the opening, with prices a to
14 points higher than the first quotations.
Al the close the market was steady
will, prices unchanged to 2 points under
yesterday's final.

HAYWARD 4 CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. June 20. -It was
feared that tile cool wave’might bring
extensive rains to the Atlantics. but de
velopments overnight were most favora
ble While there were further light show
ers ip the western states, there was no
rain at all in'the eastern half of the belt.
Indications are for generally fair weather
except possibly some precipitation along
the Atlantic coast. It will get warmer
over the western and north central belj
as required, and weather prospects are
ideal. <
Liverpool, was decidedly easier. Our
market opened about 5 points lower, with
only small selling, as the opinion prevails
that the strong long interest in New York
is yet so large that the market must be
supported. In fact, such defensive sup
port appeared and caused a rally to 1.1.63
for October. F*ell & Co. were reported
strong buyers. Another supporting fac
tor was the anticipation of very bullish
comparisons of mill takings in tomorrow's
visible statement, as last year's takings
this week were only 109,000 bales. With
such a latge crop as this season, we are
dealing with larger figures throughout.
Howe'er, as all correspondence shows
that mills have bought largely for re
serve stocks, it is. therefore, quite prob
able that final statistics this season will
show the greatest difference between tak
ings and actual consumption, more so
than in any previous year.
The into-sfgbt for die week looks
around 35.000. against 31,591 bales last
year.

Railway and Copper Issues
Show Greatest Activity in
Liberal Trading.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, June 20.—A lethargic con
dition settled over the stocK market at
the opening, leaders waiting to see what
the outcome of the Republican national
convention in Chicago will be before un
dertaking speculative transactions on any
scale. Irregularity marked the quiet
trading which was carried on. Union Pa
cific reacted F. from the high price of
168%: United States Steel common, after
touching Wednesday's final, receded ;
Northern Pacific, Great Northern Railroad
and Brooklyn Rapid Transit lost fractions.
Canadian Pacific was % off. while Lehigh
\ alley's decline reached ’4.
In the late forenoon heavy selling, said
to be the result of dissatisfaction with
tlm levelopments at the Republican con
vention. caused declines ranging from I
to 2 points fn many important issues.
The selling, was heaviest in steel and Le
high Valley, but pressure was also ex
erted against Union Pacific and the cop
per stocks. Interboro-Metropolitan was
exceptionally strong. The Wabash issues
showed a steady tone.
Reading opened ", higher, but reacted.
The curb opened steady.
A firm tone, prevailed in Americans and
In Canadian Pacific In London on small
transactions. English traders taking
tliclr cue from Wall Street are walling
for political developments.
Stock market closed firm: governments
unchanged; other bonds steady

on selling by longs and a lack of buying
power.
Northwestern, receipts were smaller,
while the Winnipeg run was larger.
Liverpool was higher and shorts covering
in the pit.
’‘orn was a shade low er, w ith trading
dull.
There was a weaker feeling for oats on
better cron conditions and somewhat
heavier receipts than looked for.
Hog products were lower, although hogs
were a shade higher.
After an earl.v dip wheat ruled strong
