Orient Road Shows $160,000 in Earnings NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—Bondholders and noteholders of the Kansas City and Orient Railway have received a circular from the reorganization com mittee stating that the plan which the committee had hoped to issue ear lier in the year had to be amended owing to the financial situation abroad and in America. The committee reports that earn ings of the line in the United States from June 30, 1912, to June 30, 1913, will approximate $160,000. The com mittee feels justified in adopting a policy of building into Kansas City as soon as possible. COTTON GOSSIP Dallas wires: “Texas and Oklahoma clear and hot.’’ * * * NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 8— Hayward & Clark: The weather map shows part cloudy over eastern half of belt and south Texas; generaly fair elsewhere; general showers in eastern half of belt; none in western half. Indications are still for some rain coming in the west over Sunday. * * • Rainfall The New Orleans Times- Democrat says: “After making full al lowance for the fact that cotton is a dry weather plant and thrives on sun shine, the talent is forced to admit that drouth in parts of Oklahoma and Texas, accompanied by such high tempera tures as those of yesterday, is injuring ttte crop every day. However, most traders on the short side have learned not to accept damage reports at face value, and when, in the face of a fair forecast for the west, the barometer lines revealed low pressure of the Gulf of Mexico, the talent promptly exploited storm formation as a promise of rain and weather students on the floor helped by asserting that extremely hot weather in Oklahoma is simply a forerunner of rain and lower temperatures. Thus the market worked down after the bulge c.f Wednesday. “Meanwhile, Manchester is not send ing any encouraging reports, though Liverpool managed to sell 10,000 bales on the spot yesterday. At this time any lack of evidence of trade activity is apt to tell on the raw cotton market, be cause just now slack demand for the actual makes a poor showing when con trasted with the keen demand in evi dence during the past two years. ‘The market is very dull and very narrow; speculation has been reduced to a minimum and neither talent nor trade is in a humor to display enterprise. In creasing spot sales at Galveston and Houston indicate that the new crop market is opening up." * * * The market was sold off after the opening on unofficial reports of rain at Galveston. The early weather map shows no rain and weather experts could not see any in sight, which re sulted in an active wave of buying at the outset. • • • On the call. Flinn and Gifford bought August.

LOUIS, Aug 8.—The hot and dry weather which prevailed over a large part of the country this week, while In juring the growing crops, was favorable for harvesting, storage and marketing of winter wheat, but delayed plowing of land for seeding of wheat in the fall. However, there is no apprehension felt, as there still is ample time for this work with favorable weather conditions. That there is more attention being given to the preparations of the soil and se lection of seed is indicated by the larger yields and better quality of winter wheat. Thrashings continue to show' larger yields than has been expected and the quality of the grain is of the best. There is still a steady movement of wheat to market, as the yield is so much larger than has been estimated and that most farmers are willing to part with at least a portion of their crop. COTTON SEED OIL. NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—Further liqui dation o near positions on a heavy scale caused another bad break this morning in the cotton seed oil market, but shorts bought freely at the decline, particular ly of late months, causing the decline.

E SENDS COTTON OP NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—Uneasiness was again expressed to-day over weather conditions in Texas, and when the cot ton market opened, prices were at a net advance of 5 to 11 points from Thurs day’s final. New crops were the strong est, August showing an advance of 15 points immediately after the opening. The openirtg quotation was 11.75 and the next figure was 11.85. There was no rain shown on the map, as had been generally expected and local weather experts failed to see any in sight just at present and the market was bought freely from strong sources. Shorts were also good buyers, but on the rally there seemed to be some cotton for sale as sentiment continues very bearish. Later the market eased off sharply on reportR of rain at Galveston and El Paso and less support was in evidence. Because the detailed weather map failed to show any rains over the west ern belt, and private reports of deteri orations in Arkansas and Oklahoma caused by tTie high temperatures and dry weather, the market developed a steady tone during the afternoon ses sion, resulting In a rapid advance in prices from the early low point. Some of the large spot interests continue to buy on all reactions, which is encour aging to the bull element. The Lulls contend if rain does not come in the West within the next week that very serious damage will result and the feeling is now becoming more bull ish. The market is very easily influ enced on any weather news and prices will be governed accordingly.

Cotton quotations: T .Marked Improvement Noted in Wool Trade BOSTON. Aug. H. More Inquiry has developed in the wool market during the past week, probably stimulated by the increased demand for lightweight goods, following the recent openings by leading mills. Total sales are estimated at fully 2,000.000 pounds, the business being distributed among the leading houses and covering most of the desirable grades. Primary markets are now well cleaned up. except in Ohio, but even there very little Is doing and buyers are coming home. Prices here are un changed. Liquidation of holdings wherever a profit is shown Is the policy in favor and some transfers, it is said, have been made at a very small margin.

HAYWARD &. CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 8.—The map shows cloudy weather prevailing over the eastern half of the belt and south Texas; generally fair elsewhere. Show ers were quite general east of the River, but none are shown west. Indications are for increasing cloudiness with pros pects for precipitation to come on the eastern States over Sunday. Cloudy and showery weather in indicated for the central and eastern States. Liverpool was poor at first, but ral lied on the absence of rain in the West. Spot prices 6 points lower; sales 8,000 bales. First traders here were at an advance of about 6 points on nervous covering by shorts on the Government forecast of fair weather to-day and to morrow in Oklahoma and Texas, but prices soon dropped to last night’s clos ing figures when Galveston reported heavy rain. New York says the declin ing tendency is due more to the differ ence of speculation to furnish support than to weather prospects. Trading is very quiet, waiting for weather developments in the western States over Sunday.

MEMPHIS, Aug. 8.— Continued high temperatures in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas are giving rise to numerous complaints of crop deterioration, some of which are well founded, as numerous sections of this territory have been with out rain for weeks. The market does not advance materially because of brilliant reports from the eastern belt, but trade is beginning to note more attentively ne complaints and the tone is steady.

The weather over the greater portion of the corn belt wus again hot and dry. although in sections of Nebraska and Iowa it was reported as cooler. Northeastern and eastern Iowa, as well as northern and central Illinois were visited by raips last night, but as an offset to this a message was received from Kansas City, saying that in some sections of Missouri the crop will he a total failure, and that in others it will not average over 50 per cent. The forecast of the weather bureau up to to morrow evening shows no relief in sight for the corn crop. News of this nature, as well as generally bullish feeling in the corn market brought further upturns of Vi0 %c at the opening this morning. The strength in the corn market car ried wheat *40%c higher at the open ing, in spite of the generally bearish news received from the Old World as well as our own and the Canadian North west. Weather in Europe was favorable for harvesting and movement, and car goes at Liverpool were freely offered at concessions. Fine general rains were re ported In the Canadian Northwest, which are good for the filling of the crops, and beneficial rains were reported in our own Northwest. The corn market had a strengthening influence on oats and sales were made at higher levels. Trading in provisions was rather light early, but the market had a stronger undertone, being influenced to some ex tent by the strength in coarse grains and the higher market for hogs at the yards.

Shortly before James was bom his mother knitted a pair of socks for his father, but the socks were never worn by tbe father. They defended to the son, who carefully preserved them and expressed a desire to be buried with them on. Grain Notes The Chicago Inter-Ocean says: “Many wheat traders regar<j the market as a carrying charge proposition and say that unless there is a material improvement in tlie export demand, which lias flat tened out of late, prices may go lower. Corn prices are so high that even many of the boldest operators are timid about .mg long except on sharp breaks; they are easily scared by reports of rain. A Government report is due to-day at 1:15 p. m. It is expected to lower the condition of corn 10 points or over from that of 86.9 lust month. • • * Bartlett, Frazier & Co. say: “Wheat —The weather in the Northwest is partly cloudy with light scattered show ers. The cash demand for wheat con tinues light. Yesterday’s shipping sales were only 45,000 bushels. Local senti ment is still generally bearish, with trade of small proportions and very lit tle outside buying. “Corn—The weather map shows no precipitation In Kansas or Nebraska, with a few scattered showers in Iowa and northern Illinois, also In the Ohio valley. High temperatures prevailed again yesterday west of the river, and no general improvement in conditions is noted. “In our opinion the situation contin ues one of great strength, although we must expect a very nervous market and temporary setbacks on the present price level. “Oats—The market Is showing a rather steady undertone, helped doubt lessly by the continued strength in corn, but also due to some less favorable thrashing returns and a better cash in quiry. “Provisions- Hog receipts are slightly under estimates Pork is showing con siderable strength with a broader range in prices. The market seems to have a generally steady tone.'* * * • Kansas City says: “Missouri corn crop has gone. Yesterday’s heat was 101 to 10t* degrees in north Missouri. The best corn in Missouri may make half crop; the worst will make nothing.'’ • • • The State Board of Agriculture at Lincoln, in their monthly bulletin, esti mates that the com crop in Nebraska has suffered 50 per cent loss because of the drouth. The South Platte coun try reports that the State will have practically no corn. • • • The Inter Ocean says: “It Is expected that the Government report will show winter wheat crop between 510,000,000 and 525,000,000 bushels. Spring wheat condition expected to improve 1 to 2 points from last month’s 7378; when es timated yield was 218,000.000 bushels. A lower condition Is expected to he shown in oats from 76.2 last month, indicating crop of 1,031,000 bushels In July. • * * Grain region forecast: Missouri.
