Financial and Industrial Lead
ers Are Eager to Go Ahead
With Business.
H By B. C. FORBES.
XHW YORK. June 25.—Sentiment is
booming more than business. With the
abatement of political warfare, activity
may catch up. For the present hesi
tancy prevails in most directions.
♦ A spirit of impatience with restrictive
influences is growing. Financial and in
dustrial leaders are anxious to go ahead.
They have held themselves and their or
ganizations back long enough. Prepara
tions for progress and expansion have
been completed.
Everybody is waiting for somebody to
give ihe word “Go." J. P. Morgan could
probably, by one sentence, start a busi
ness boom.
The situation is largely psychological.
Meanwhile, the stock exchange moves
Indecisively, with, however, the trend in
favor of the optimistic operators. They
are men of considerable caliber, but not
of the character that commands general
banking confidence. The public are still
staying out of Wall Street. Even invest
ors are not present in larg*» numbers:
bonds, consequently, are neglected. The
prompt placing of certain important bonds
and short-term note issues by influential
underwriters reflects a well-supplied mon
ey market rather than a keen demand for
Investments.
The distribution of $250,000,000 during
July in the form of dividends on stocks
and interest on bonds should infuse some
life into security markets. It should be
. added, however, that the dullness has
been due less to a lack of funds than to
absence of inclination to buy.
A tour of the hanking district at the
close of the we°k elicited that quite a
number nf financiers had quietly slipped
off to Chicago. Neither their departure
from New York nor their arrival in Chi-

cago was chronicled in the press, this
being in accordance with their wishes.
Love for Roosevelt Bogus.
Wall Street’s loudly advertised love for
Theodore Roosevelt was nine-tenths bo
gus. The plain truth is that certain inter
ests- not many fearing that the ex
president would sweep everything into his
net, deemed it politic to give assurances
of friendliness, yet at heart they regarded
him with no more faVor than before. The
defeat of Mr. Roosevelt was, therefore,
cordially received by the majority of
financial people, though a few of the so
called common people feel that the elec
tion of this avowed champion of the
downtrodden would have acted as r safe
ty valve.
Big Business Chafing.
Until the political pot ceases to boil so
sputteringly, until both sides have closed
their convention doors, it were futile to
expect a general forward movement by
the strongest capitalistic groups. But
July may bring symptoms of the coming
revival. It is possible that nothing de
cisive will be attempted until after No
vember 4. although this is not probable.
Business—big business as well as little
business—ls chafing to stride out without
further dilly-dallying.
Most conditions are ripening fnr genu
ine prosperity. The crops are now doing
better, and, despite the lateness of the
season, the 1912 harvests may yet out
weigh those of any previous year. The
word “outweigh” is used Intentionally,
for the reason that an abundance of
wheat, corn. oats. hay. cotton, etc., is
far more important than a new high rec
ord in value would be. *\Vha( we need Is
quantity, not prohibitive prices.
’The farmer this season could afford to
sell his products at prices less burden
some upon the people at large than those
which have ruled for the last two or three
years. The city dwellers have had a
harder time than their rural brethren, so
that a readjustment of conditions woyld
benefit the nation.
Bounteous crops would relieve many of
our economic ills. And at this moment
al least high hopes are permissible.
I. C. C. Makes Too Many Cuts.
Railroad earnings, while reflecting fair
ly heavy traffic, are not wholly satisfac
tory. Profits are too slim to permit of
the expansion«, improvements and equip
ment purchases that extensive crops and
animated trade may call for several
months hence 'The interstate commerce
commission continues to cut rates here,
there and everywhere, and the power of
the commerce cotirf to interfere has been
emasculated by the supreme court.

COTTON SLUMPS
AFTER ADVANCE
Goes Up on Bad Weather Re
ports, But Drops Back With
Late Liquidation.
NEW YORK, June 25.—The cotton mar
ket opened this morning with a firm tone,
showing a pel gain 5 to 9 points over the
closing of yesterday. The unfavorable
weather conditions over most of the
cotton belt, heavy rain fell throughout the
southwest, central and eastern states, this
set the local and untown to buying.
Liverpool cables were much better than
expected, the strength in that market
reported to be caused from the buying by
jobbers in early sales, and sentiments be
coming more bullish on fear of bad crop
reports
During the late trading the general
public began to liquidate their holdings in
July, fearing the grade of cotton they
would have to take. This and the gov
ernment weekly report on weather very
much better than expected, caused prices
to take a backward step, with prices
around the opening. The heavy selling by
Norden Is said to have been an Impor
tant factor for the decline The buying
power was moderate, and scattered.
At the close the market developed a
steady tone with prices 1 to 5 points over
the previous close.

HAYWARD 4 CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, June 25.—The ad
vance was due to the unfavorable Journal
of Commerce report on Georgia, saying
crop progress not encouraging. Too much
rain, small stands, cool nights, plant
weak The report on Alabama Is good,
but says rain is needed. As so many bad
reports from the Atlantics are in eircii
lation. the following front Charlotte. N.
(’.. will be of interest: “Deevlopments
during the past week have been highly
favorable for the growing crop. Excellent
progress has been made in farm work.
Fields are clean and well worked Land
is in almost perfect condition, riant vig
orous and healthy and growing nicely.”
New York reported selling by some
prominent longs on the rally which
checked the advance, together with good
prospects for fair and warm weather
in the eastern states in two days.

are almost universal complaints of ton
much rain, too cool nights, small stands

30 days late. A few correspondents re
port stand as "good," but the large ma

the last few days. Labor appears to be
scarce in some sections.
Conditions in Alabama appear quite sat

flirting, those recording Improved and
good condition are largely in the majority.
There are many complaints of the plant
being small, but the reports of good stands
are more numerous than those, of poor
stands. Chopping is about finished. There
is much need of rain in some sections and
in other sections the weather has been
too cool. In this state the crop appears
to be ten days to two weeks late. Com
plaints of caterpillars and army worms
are quite frequent. There are also some
reports of black root.

RAILWAY ISSUES
LOSEFRACTIONS
Leading Transportation Stocks
Decline Slightly on Irregular
Trend of Market.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, June 25. - There was an
absence of speculative interest at the
opening of the strike meet and business
even usually active shares as narrow,
fluctuations being confined to fractions.
The initial sales were generally at con
cessions of from % to % from yester
day's close, but the tone was steady.
Most of the small losses were recovered
after fifteen minutes' trading
The copper stocks showed the greatest
declines. Amalgamated losing % and
American Smelting % linited States
Steel common was off %. while the pre
ferred was ut> %. Erie common and Bal
timore and Ohio were unchanged. Read
ing lost 2%. i nion Pacific dropped % and
Canadian Pacific was up %. The curb
was dull.
Americans in London were heavj.
In the late forenoon, there was little de
mand for stocks when a selling movement
started and prices of nearly all the lead
ing issues yielded sharply under offerings
by some of the important room traders.
Most of this selling was directed against
Reading, which declined a point from yes
terday's close. The Wabash Issues were
irregular.
There was little change in speculative
conditions in the late afternoon. Business
was dull and fluctuations were small
About the only feature was the continued
demand for Norfolk and Western, which
forced, it up to 113%. against 112%, the
close yesterday. The buying was accom
panied by rumors of increase of dividend
payments. Houses that have been arlive
tn the stock for some time said they ex
pected that the rate will be increased to
7 per cent at the next meeting of the
directors.
