Hughes' Policy
Echoes Views of
James G. Blaine
.Central American Federation
Plan Approved by Present
Secretary's Distin
guished Predecessor.
By HOLLAND.
Charles .E. Hughes, secretary of
state, no doubt knows that James
G. Blaine when he sat at the desk
which is now Secretary Hughes'
warmly advocated a confederation or
some other international agreement
whereby the Central American re
publics could be brought together in
close association. For it was almost
an echo from afar of something
which Mr. Blaine said 40 years ago
which sounds in the words of appro
val spoken by secretary Hughes at
a luncheon recently Riven in hfo
honor by the minister from Nicara
gua to the United States.
Of course Secretary Hughes did
not commit the United States in any
way so far as mjthods or manner
f confederation are concerned. But
he did make it clear that if a con
federation were organized the gov
ernment of the United States would
regard it with gratification.
Blaine's view was that a confederation
of the Central American states would
lead to vastly Increased commerce be
tween the Uulted States and these Cen
tral American republics. It would be cer
tain to secure financial aid from the
United States. It would tend greatly to
strengthening cordial relations between
this country and the nations south of us
t
a
and this feeling would extend ultimately
trougnout aouttt America.
Advantages Reciprocal.
Secretary Hughes appears to take the
name view. For he went as far as to
ay that through agreement made by these
Central American states freely centered
Into the possible mutual advantages,
I would be fully realised. That means not
a i uiy advantage to tne central American
confederation, but reciprocal advantage to
the United States.
This Incident, which for an hour or
two Interrupted the arduous toll to which
the secretary of state has submitted,
throws. In some measure, a light upon
his purposes during the hot season. Some
who are of kin to him say that ha sees
tio vacation posslblw, even for two or
threa weeks, from the Imperative respon
sibilities which are to be upon the Stat
department for the next year or two.
For that reason the secretary plans 10.
remain In Washington throughout the
summer, being at his office every day.
The Infrequent holidays wlven the depart
ments are closed will find him at the
home established by General Pershing on
the banks of the Potomac, about 20
miles below Washington. There the breezes
from the river and noma which occa
sionally find their way with ocean fra
grance from Chesapeake bay insure com
fort at night at least. The secretary will
journey back and forth between this
summer place and his office every day
by motor, making the 20 miles In about
, on hour.
Hnghea and Chief Justiceship.
(Occasionally reports come from Wash
ington intimating that by and by Presi
dent Harding may transfer Secretary
Hughes from rhe Stat department to
the chair of chief justice of the supreme
court. Even it the president ever con
templated remotely action of that kind
he certainly now knows that Secretary
Hughes will not go back to the supreme
court. The secretary believes that the
Btate department during this administra
tion Is to have responsibilities and op
portunities unsurpasesd even in the days
or tne civil war wnen secretary oewara
was so successfully administering the
Mate department as to prevent European
complications. Charles E. Hughes was
not elected president five yers sgo, but
his administration of the State department
may in great measure make good that
defeat both for himself and for the coun
try. He Is not appalled by the magni
tude of work which may bs imposed upon
him. Like one of his predecessors, Ellhu
Root, he Is capable or prolonged ana in
tense application to work.
Rising at an Early Hour,
John Oulncy Adams when he was sec
retary of state and later when he was
president was accustomed to rise at e
o'clock and give an hour or two before
breakfast to work which was at hand.
When Mr. Hughes returned to New York
In 1S1 6 to resume the practice of law
he found himself Immediately in posses
sion of highly remunerative clientage. But
" his professional opportunities Involved an
amount of work which, unless there were
soma relaxation and recreation, would
have broken down a strong man. In
order to carry on his work he was ac
customed to rise two hours, sometimes
three hours, before breakfast even though
he may have been at his labors until a
late hour the night before. In this way
he was able to accomplish an amount of
work which many lawyers would have
thought sufficient for an entire day. He,
however, always took time to gain tho
tonlo of fresh air.
No duobt while secretary of state his
capacity for Intense and prolonged work
will be of avail to him. Only those who
are of the administration, and not all of
them, and some in this city who ara near
of kin to him have knowledge of the
mafnttiiri 4n volume and in importance
of the labors which the secretary of
state at this time must submit to. It
Is observed that many ara the commenda
tions which come from all parts of the
country and from men of ability who did
'not vote for him for president, for th
manner in which h has grssped the
responsibilities of the Btate department.
Ex-President and Secretary of State.
If President Harding were to appoint
William H. Taft chief Jvstlce of the su
premo court, that appointment would give
a special gratification to the secretary of
state. There la an Interesting and some
what unusual association between the ex
president and the secretary of state. Taft
has sometimes said that ha regards Mr.
Hughes as the possessor of an intellect
unsurpassed by any American and pecu
liarly adapted to the pursuits of states
manship. Ob the other hand Secretary
Hughes has sometimes said that in his
opinion Taft la intellectually one ot the
great minds of his time, although he
sometimes feared that the American peo
ple did not fully appreciate both the
Intellecutal profundity and acutenesa of
Intellect whioh he. Hughes, had discovered
that Taft possesses, nut in an proDaDiiny
neither the ex-president nor the former
candidate for president will sit In the
chair so long and so worthily occupied by
Chief Justice White.

was quiet during today's early trading,
with the price movement comparatively
narrow. Liverpool was about as due and
tt-e market here opened steady at an ad
vance of 1 point to a decline of 1 points.
With no definite change reported In the
British labor situation and the . weather
map showing generally favorable condi
tions in the south, there was some scat
tering liquidation and a little southern
selling. This sent prices about I to i
points net lower after the call.
The weekly report of the weather bureau
read quite as favorably as expected, but
mentioned the boll weevil which was said
to be spreading everywhere in Georgia
and failed to stimulate the midday mar
ket. The close was steady at 15.Jo for July,
ll.44o for October, H.S6e for December,
14.0SC for January and H.SSc for March.

Chicago Gain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS,
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, June 8. Expectations of
a wet harvest in the southwest, own
.ing to the floods and heavy rains in
Colorado and Kansas, brought good
support to the wheat market from
local professionals and seaboard ex
porters and prices . advanced and
closed at the top, with gains of 2yic.
on July, while September was un
changed. Corn and oats were heavy
and corn lost 1 cent and oats i
l'Ac. Rye was strong and gained
Wheat traders were mainly short
at the start and the wet weather in
the southwest where harvesting is
starting, offset the effects of claims
of 131,000,0000 bushels for the wheat
harvest of Kansas by Allen Logan
of Kansas City, who has many crop
reports. The effect of the break in
foreign exchange which led to sell
ing here and in Buenos Aires, was
also overcome, as there was a ready
absorption of the offerings on all
breaks by seaboard houses. The mar
ket, on the whole, was extremely
nervous and prices moved up and
down within a range of $1.294 to
$1.32, about six times, with the
close at the top.
Reports Bullish.
Crop reports from experts In the field
were moderately bullish from Indiana.
Inglls, who was in the latter state, found
averages about 18 bushels In many sec
tions. From other sections reports were
mixed. Cutting Is on in southern Kansas
and will bs on in the central west within
a week.
A feature of the trading was the sell
ing of September and buying of July at
12 to 15 cents difference to undo spreads
made the other way the last wey days.
There was a general .evening up of all
trades at the last for the government
report.
Favorable crop news for corn, with
scattered rains over the central west,
combined with reports that considerable
of the crop has been cut and is coming
along nicely and with large receipts and
liberal selling by local and strong pro-.
fesslonal Interests, had a depressing ef
fect. Cash prices declined 103o and
sample grades, 35o lower.
Oats Under Pressure.
Oats were under pressure from the
same Interests who have been active on
that side for a Week. Heavy selling of
September by cash houses who bought
July at ltc difference and selling of
September by Wagner were the features.
Buying was scattered. Crop reports from
Indiana were spotted and from tho coun
try on the whole favorable. July finished
at almost the Inside at 384 0 38Hc, with
Septombes at 40c. Shipping sales were
105,000 bushels, with prices V4 01c lower.
Arrivals were 22 cars.
Rye hsd good support, with offerings
light. Prices advanced and closed at the
top at $1.36 for July, with cash , 150
premium. ,
Hog receipts were below expectations
and offerings of product light until
prices had advanced, when they in
creased, causing a break end tame close.
Lard, however, gained 2H07Vic and ribs
closed unchanged. Cash trade was bet
ter, with more Inoulry from abroad for
meats and lard, the United Kingdom bid
ding higher than of late.
Pit Notes.
The government report on wheat was
generally construed as bullish and active
buying of offers with a good advance
was on after the report came out. Taking
the lour grains in tne aggregate, mere
Is a big showing with only 88,000,000
bushels less than last year and prospects
of a loss being overcome in the final
returns. Oats figures were bearish, al
though showing 121,000 bushels less than
harvested last year. Tnere are reports
of a large carryover and unless the ex
port demand Is heavy, the United States
does not need as much oats as before the
advent of the automobile and tractors.
Absorption of July wheat by- houses
with seaboard connections has been on
the past few days, which tends to create
a friendly feeling to the buying side on
all breaks. There are a few Commission
men and traders who are bearish on the
Improvement that is sard to have taken
place in the crop the last 10 days.
Others are considering the rain and flood
situation In the southwest as likely to be
unfavorable for harvesting, which Is under
way and will become general within the
next two weeks.
An Immense changing business has been
on in ots for a week, July being bought
and September sold by elevator people.
The aggregate is well up Into the millions
of bushels, yet with all the pressure and
with the local traders bearish, prices have
declined only 3c. It is said that large
lines bought on the recent bulge around
43c for September have not come out on
the decline.
At Chicago man who was In Kansas
City today wired that there were indica
tions of a large movement ' of old and
new wheat as famors are expected to
liquidate, notwithstanding the fact that
pool operations are expected to bo under
way. Evidently the farmers would rather
have their money In hand than pool
promises, as thoy were very costly last
year when they held wheat for $3. Wich
ita reported sales for immediate ship,
ment at $1.73. , ....
The corn trade, particularly the local
professionals, are generally bearish. The
country, however, has stopped selling and
cash Interests say the movement from
Illinois and Iowa is lighter. The move
ment, however, keeps up well and ship
ments are heavy. One boat loaded today
with 300.000 bushels and more than 1,500,
000 bushels are under charter.

Financial
By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES,
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wins
New York, June 8. Foreign ex
change again held the front of in
terest in this financial market; a
rapid decline of 6 3-8c brought ster
ling to the lowest rate, $3.74 3-4,
quoted since Germany began its
payments. On the face of things the
market's action certainly seemed to
indicate resumption of sales for rep
arations account. What part soecu
lation played in this latest turn of
a bewildering market it is impossible
to say except that X uesday s bids
from both speculators and ordinary
remitters, seemed to have been
abruptly withdrawn.
On the stock exchange, also, the
"covering" movement by speculators
for the decline appeared to halt
Transactions fell to half the magni
tude of the day before and in a few
industrials, notably steel shares, con
certed efforts to force rapid declnies
were resumed. The resultant weak
ness was not at all general, however;
the railway stocks held firm and in
the end there were more net ad
vances than declines and some of
the gains were of substantial pro
portions. Call money which went
to 8 per cent last Thursday, got
back to 6 1-2, the lowest in a fort
night. Winter Wheat Deteriorated.
The government's monthly crop report
confirmed tho grain trade's belief that
ton winter wheat had deteriorated.
The treasury's announcement of a 6
per cent, three-year loan as part of Its
plan to provide for near maturities of
the public debt has been well received.
Nearly all outstanding war loans have ad
vanced on the announcement, the Vic
tory 4 per cents of 123 In particular
having risen nearly a point above lass
Week and reaching the highest price since
January 13, 1920.
This fixing of the highest Interest rate
borne by any United States loan, with
several years to run, would sometimes
operate to depress the market for out
standing war loans, as a matter or tact,
however, very recent prices-for the Liber
ty bond have been such as to make the
net yield for many of them more than
5 per cent, while the Victory 4s,
reckoning increment of principal, have long
been selling close to a 6 basis.
Furthermore, the treasury statement
that nearly $500,000,000 of the last-named
bonds have already been bought up and
canceled and that proceeds of the new
loan will be devoted largely to the same
purpose, gives natural support to the mar
ket. New York Dry Goods.
New Tork, June 8. Cotton goods were
quiet today. Yarns were less in demand.
Women's knot goods and hosiery con
tinued steady, but men's lines were quiet.
Worsted yarns for future delivery de
veloped slowly. There were more In
quiries for early shipment of men's wear.
Sample dress goods continued to sell well.

8 to 16 points below last night's closing
figure, with Septemmer easing off to
6.87c, but later reports of renewed firm
