New York.—Apprehensions of con tinued dry weather and higher tempera tures in the southwest over Sunday were considered chiefly responsible fc ic the advance in today’s cotton market while \ living mnv also have been encouraged to ron e extent by rather better reports fi'in the domestic goods trade. Prices sold some 29 to 30 points above the low level of i lie v.fck on new crop positions and the market closed steady at a net n of four to eleven points for the 'l •• opening was steadv at an advance « f t- • > so; • r o'rfts irr response to high er cables.

The official map however showed no sign of any general rain in the southwest and the western belt forecast frv generally fair weather which quickly followed by an increasing demand and advancing pr ees New Orleans and other southern points appeared to be buying new crop delive ries here while there was continued covering by local shorts and a moderate demand from trade sources.

The decline has been ac companied by more or less bearish talk ti local ctrcies, and predictions of still lower prices have evidently been en couraged by unfavorable trade advices, good wheather over the gveatr part of >l;e belt*- and nn impression that the prop has continued to Improve since the government secured the data for the ast condition report. The smaller exports of cotton goods for the month of June as shown bv Brit ish hoard of trade returns and the talk of curtailment among domestic mills, leading to predictions of a falling off In supply and distribution figures for the past month, have figured In bearish pre dictions hut there has been some un easiness as to the crop outlook In Texas, of which verv little rain has fallen since the middle of June. Scattering show ers have been reported In that section during the past two or three days but thev have not been sufficiently heavy or general entirely to relieve apprehension*, white some traders have taken the short time recommendations of the governing committee of the International Bplnnsws' Federation ns Ind'ratlng a slack In the Immediate demand and a desire to in fluence raw material markets. The sit* uitlon In this respect, combined with hull predictions of an Increasing demand from spinners around the 12-cent level has probably restricted fresh offering; ■ the short Account on the decline ana cemed to he largely responsible for t«- dav's rally of some fifteen or twenty points from the lowest.

BULLS DID THEJDYING Thought Market Oversold and Reaction Due. Close at Gain 6 to 7 Points. New Orleans.—Short covering. in rather large volume, was the main feat ure of the week-end session in the cot ton market. This covering was stimu lated chiefly by drnugthy conditions in Texas and the forecast of fair weather for that state over Sunday. Reports Prom several important counties were that the crop was beginning to suffer for want of moisture and that continued drouth would he serious. Bulls, who thought the market oversold, went to buying on the theory that a reaction was due and prices, after a sight tie nression around the opening, did better at their best standing eight to nine ovefr yesterday’s last quotations. The close was at a net gain of six to seven points. To some extent bull aggressiveness was checked by the small spot sales in Liverpool, the bearish cast of weekly statistics and scattered showers outside Texas and Oklahoma. High. I.ow. Close. T ,.

Dublin.—Very bunine*a-like appear the National Volunteer* these day*. New member* are enrolling at a rate of 6,000 a week or more. The total i* oHtimated by the Imhlin "Sunday Independent” at 128,500, divided between Ulster, 41,000, Leinster, .42,000; Munster 27,000; und Connaught, 18,500. A brigade demonstration ha* Just been held in Londonderry City. Marshalled in companies a procession over a mile long marched to Celtic Park, accom panied by a hand of trained nutses in Red Cross uniform* and *rtended by a first aid party bearing stretchers and other equipment. In the remote isiend of*Achlll there are two compaiileH of Volunteers, all mem ber* of which speak Gaelic. The drill command* and the conversation of the men are carried on in the ancient ver nacular. T* B. O’Connor in a current published article, says: First Impulse. “The first Impulse of the Volunteer movement, I believe, wa* given by tiie Incident* in the Curragh. it 1* certain that the English atrny, as it I* known today, Ih doomed It may come noon or it may come late, but a democratized English army Instead of the Tory Army of today has taken Its place among the purpoMos to which the democratic forces are pledged to devote themselves. 'in Ireland, the Curragh Camp re volt helped to give birth to the National Volunteers. It was known that this movement of revolt wa* largely InHplrcd by irishmen and Irishwomen of the > lulifij.u 6lxCl 6 ha IIA u I lira tra h«.an ..r.r., .a,.. .1 I. . • riasse* that have always been opposed to ' Irish liberty.

Only One Answer. "There was only one answer to 1 j challenge so insolent and that was for the Irish people to defend themselves.

If mere Is any thing In the old adage that, where there's smoke there's fire, an out break In Europe is hound to come sooner or later. Recently there was alarm In France at the statement that a new German military law wait about to be enact d, so the increase of her mili tary forces. ill 11 came the ram pa leg here for the overthrow of Preeidem Poincare. This did not succeed, but, when M. Uibot's cabinet was defeated in the fiist. division it. was hailed as a mark of disapproval of the three years ser vice hill Tt may be assumed confidently that tiu l three years military service law Is indiarensahla to "'ranee and all po litical parties recognize (dial fact. One of the sanest of France’s poli ticians asked why the increase of military service was necessary, said: Rely on Herself. "It Is .lie consequence of the action of Germany. Germany has begun to realize that in the event of 0 Euro pean wa.- sli.e would have to rely very largely upon herself, for Austria would hav • 200,0(10 Servians ott one heel and 300,000 Roumanians on the others. Now Russia’s numbers are very formidable, but tt is a question wheth er eh a van concentrate them rapidly. Germany desires, therefore, to be in a position to strike a deadly hlow at France Immediately hostilities begin and before our reserves are ready, so ns to be able to have her hands more free to meet the Russians on the frontier. Teutons Watching With Interest "King” William's Efforts to Retain Throne Berlin.—Mpret William’s efforts to retain his throne In Albania are be ing followed with considerable inter est by the German people, but there would appear to be an utter lack of that concern about It which one mlgnt naturally expect, seeing that the tin certain ruler of an uncertain percent age of the Albanians Is n. German prince. There Is a general feeling that there Is something lacking about the Mpret. His apparent lack of tact, of political far-sightedness, and of de clsdveness have disappointed bis ad mirers, and bis insistence upon elal - orate court ceremonial, tr. the exist ing conditions has evoked comments bordering upon ridicule. Court circles In Berlin are si. 1 amusing themselves over the Inscrip tion on the card of William’s court' marshal, llcrr ven Trotha, who cama here a few days ago to report to the Kaiser. The card reads: Mondial de 111 Cntir do Sa I/B.leste In Rol d’Albanl? Tlie Mpret has from the Bra! Insisted upon being termed "Your Majesty,' although the powers, know him only as "Your Highness."

PHONES M 7, Ml and UM> "The aim of the three years' ser vice is to take away from Germany the temptation to make this sudden attack on us. As !he Germans have a frontier force of 250.000 men, we must have one of practically equal strength so that we can uold our while the re serves are mobilizing on the frontier line. Consider the reserve which Franca posscses in her North African colonies of Algeria and Morocco! In Tunis conscription lias already been introduced and works well. Excellent Soldiers. If it were established in Algeria and Morocco, whose inhabitants would make excellent soldiers, like the people of the south of France, we should nave an additional army of 200,000 or 400,000 excellent troops in seven or eight years. But the time will soon come, perhaps in ten years, " lien Germany must either come to an understanding with France and Russia or else try to settle the rivalry by the old method of the sword. Which method she will choose, I do not know, but we must evidently he prepared for the method of violent)#." Tills is no feather-brained state ment nor yet the product, of an imag inative or alarmed mind. It Is the ke note of the prevailing situation. And in the midst of all trls prepara tion for war I am aTrfcWi many essen tial industrial reforms are being shelved. The French people are pa tient and long-suffering and their In tense patriotism blirds them to a mul titude of omissions on the part of the home government. Germany is the Nation of Ail Laws—Their Aim Berlin.—Germany is the nation of all the laws. There are rules and regula tions for everything. If you do not hap pen to have passed the age of 18 \ou ft Vo not nllowed to belong to a political organization, though young people era urged to enter the National ITlons, which exist to promote militarist ideas and cer tainly savor of political intent and ef fect. The fact that these laws are aimed against everything suggestive of Social ism la ill-concealed and youths with so cialistic tendencies or trades union lean ings are Vigorously debarred from gath ering together. An instance has Just occurred, where Pr. Breltscheld, a member of the Keich stag, was announced to address a meet ing of young workers on the subject «>f “Working Youths, Wake tip." Before he had uttered a single ward and in spite of the fact that the chair man had stated that the meeting would be in no way political a police official declared the meeting Illegal and cleared the hall. The audience reassembled In an adjoining room to sing and hear reci tations, but frnrjg this also they were dispersed. C. ot Ga.Ry “The Rlpht Way” « Current Schedules (78tb Meridian Time) DEPARTURES.
