CREDIT SITUATION CONTINUES TO BE A DESPAIRFUL ONE

NEW YORK, Aug. 4. General sentiment In the dry goods markets this week shows an Improvement to the extent that might be expected from to expectation of more purchasing tower temporarily from higher rail

road wages. But In the discussions of the details of the day's business it was evident that the freight rates were not relished nor was there much comfort found in measuring the decline in prices for agricultural products. There are several credit complications In different divisions of the trade that have made many merchants think deeply of the probable need later on of a very close co-operation to stem loses from those who have not been speculators in the true sense of the term, but whose merchandise i3 being depreciated at a consequence of what speculators have done. More confidence was expressed concerning the Eupply of cotton for next year, following the announcement ot the government reports on crop conditions. No one is heard crying for lower prices on cotton Just now, but in the trade it is fully expected that if all other textile raw materials decline for one cause or another, and Egyptian cotton and Indian cotton and China cotton cease their wild upward flight, there will be some decline later on in American cotton if the figure of 12,500,000 bales is realiied by October or November. The cotton manufacturing world regards August as the month that makes or breaks the cotton crop, and to some extent this is the view that obtains

among the majority of cotton goods merchants. So far as cotton price will enter Into the new price situation this month is critical. The naming of prices on bleached cottons yesterday caused no stir. The prices were what the leading Jobbers tad prepared for. The smaller Jobbers feel under no Impulse to buy, as the price is guaranteed until October 15. Nothing new developed in the prices themselves to Induce buyers to put down orders, for the bleached goods have not been revised in keeping with pray goods prices, not in keeping with what handlers of unbranded goods will do on close trading If firm orders are tended. It may be several days before it will be finally determined whether the new prices have done anything more than add a stabilizing influence to the price situation. Additional prices are being named on dress ginghams by those houses that have held off. It Is stated that nbout half of a normal business has come forward thus far. This is sufficient to insure steady operations in the mills during the summer, as they Btill have many goods to deliver for fall on old orders.

With New York a pivotal state a prominent figure in this year's presidential campaign is sure to be James W. Wadsworth, Jr., a Republican, and the senior U. S. senator from New York. Wadsworth's election to the senate occurred six

years ago. He asks the voters of the . j . i i

j iiitupire siate 10 re

elect mm tms ran. Although he conies of a family distinguished in the public service,

( none of the fore-,

bears of Senator Wadsworth achiev-j ed the distinction that is his that of having been elected as a senator from the Empire state at the age of 37.

His father, twice a member of the New York assembly, also served as state comptroller in 1879 and was elected to congress in 18S1, serving until 1885, and again

from 1801 to 1907.

James W. Wadsworth, Jr., was born

at Geneseo, N. Y., August 12, 1877. He

prepared for college at St. Mark's school at Southboro, Mass., and was graduated from Yale with the class of 1893. He enlisted as a private In Battery A, Pennsylvania Held artillery, and served In the Porto Rlcan campaign In the summer of that year. Returning home he engaged in live stock raising and general farming near Geneseo, and later assumed the management of a ranch in Texas. He married Miss Alice Hay of Washington, D. C, In 1902. He was elected to the assembly from Livingston county in 1904, and served in that body through 1910. He was elected speaker for the session of 1906 and was continued in that post until he retired from the assembly. During his term In the senate Senator Wadsworth has offended two

powerful political forces, the "drys" and some of the women voters, who did not like his opposition to female suffrage. His friends assert, however, that he will have little difficulty in being renominated and elected.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 4. A

higher grade of ability and a greater degree of activity than has prevailed

in the Wilson regime and less depart

mental politics will be needed for a

Harding cabinet, according to United States Senator Boles Penrose. The senator discussed in detail the plans for the Republican national campaign

and for a Republican national adminis

tration at Washington.

Discussing the Harding cabinet, Sen

ator Penrose said:

Our needs in the next cabinet will

be very simple. They will be easily met. We want prompt and efficient action.

"Incredible extravagance has been

indulged In. Let us clean up and start

afresh. Of course, we will require a higher grade of ability, a greater degree of activity and less politics in the departments to manage the colossal and complicated machinery which has sprung up, necessitating our guidance and reformation. Want New Deal. "The administration of the War Department will have to be put unon an

absolutely new basis. Presided over

by a man who is at heart a pacifist, it has been grossly mismanaged. The wastefulness has been appalling." The Interview was obtained as the result of questions submitted through the senator's secretary, Leighton C. Taylor.

Mr. Penrose, speaking as a member

of the executive committee of 21

which body will manage the Harding campaign, declared himself as opposed to the proposed plan of having the

presidential nominee conduct his cam

paign from the front porch of his

home in Marion, O., the plan followed

by McKinley.

This opinion was regarded as im

portant for the reason that the senator

is believed to be voicing the views of

the senatorial group who were the

principal backers of the Harding can

didacy. Their views, it is thought,

will be influential in shaping the Har

ding campaign.

"Do you think the statement that

the Western states are apathetic over

kind of campaign needed to stir up the West?" "I am convinced as the years go by, the senator replied, "that the only kind of campaign with which to stir the people is an appeal to their reason and intelligence. In the -old days a torchlight parade or other crude spectacular methods of the period might hare been effective. Now, however, the people demand cold facts and strong reasoning."

Vienna Overcomes Panic Caused by Note Forgeries VIENNA. Aug. 4. With the rapid Issue of new currency, the country Is recovering from the panic that followed the discovery that enormous amounts of 1,000 and 10,000 crown notes were in circulation with forged overs tamps. Business became completely paralyzed when the forgeries were discovered. No one would accept the large notes. The hotels and banks In taking them from clients took the number of the note and entered it against the giver's name. The 50 and 100 crown notes soon gave out and business was done with tens and twenties. The government redeemed the forgeries around seventy. About 6,000,000,000 crowns of new 1,000 and 10,000 crown notes will be issued to retire the old ones.
