By HOLLAND.
F. O. Watts, bo is president of
the First National bank of St Louis
and it chairman of the finance com
mittee of the American delegation
to the International Chamber of
Commerce now in session at Lon
don, sa'd to the members of the con
ference that the United States is
confident of an early return to stable
conditions. This 1 i in line with
statements which have been male
by others who are qualified to
sieaV. It tends to justify the be
lief which was held late in the win
ter that nothwithstandino; the busi
ness depression, the promises was ex
cellent of a change which would
be followed by improvement, as
soon as readjustment was complet
ed. Mr. Watts, in speaking of the
dangerous expansion of credit, fixes
December of last year as the time
when that expansion reached its
peak. The governor of the federal
reserve system, Mr. Harding, re
cently intimated that the enormous
expansion of credit m the United
States began to be checked in the
closing weeks of the calendar year.
It was in fact due to thi change
that so many of the men of author
ity felt justified in saying that im
provement began early in the winter
although the public did not recog
nize it at that time.

three year ef Preatdoat Cleveland's sec
ond administration er which ac aln pre
vailed In the fall of 17, It would hare
been Impossible to float these snormoo

aeeded and some wiu do seevrea wiuun
the next 11 month. His estimate ta
based ta part epos. Information which he
baa received from railroad authorities.
They have told htm that the railroads of
the t'nited States need at least 16.00.
ttft.tt if they are to be put hi position ;e
take the betterments. Improvements nd
the expansion of terminal facilities which
are needed if the railroads of this country
are to be la position to handle all ths
traffic which will be offered.
S4 .00 .DOC, MM For Railroads.
These estimates do not differ greatly
from one which was aaade by Jamss 1.
Hill IS years era. Hs at that time said
that ths railroads ahoold receive at least
lJet.460 Oe a year of new capital and
should continue to receive that for 1 years
If they were to be made adequate for the
transportation demands which havs coma
to them. He spoke especially of the
need of rreatly enlarged terminal fac
ilities. This need railway manager say
ia creator today than at any other time.
At least .4,000. fcue.vso are neeaeu u
the shortac ia building and housing con
ditions Is to be ended, and public otlli
tte. so many of which are now greatly
rn need of Improvements, will require
from ll.OOO.tOC.tot to tOOt.tOt.oei. When
conditions - become stabilised, this new
capital will undoubtedly bo secured. Mr.
Hoover, secretary of commerce. Is report
ed to have said to friends in this city
that he thourht conditions would bo
stabilised within two years. Mr. Wats
apparently agrees with ths secretary of
commerce, although he does not fix any
definite date tor the perfecting et stabil
ization. H Intimates, however, that there
win be aa early return to stabls condi
tions and It may be that he ta of the
opinion that these favorable conditions
will be estsbllahed within a shorter time
than that named by Mr. Hoover.
Victory Notes.
Within two and one-half yeare a Httl
aver 17.eC0.Mt tot of the shotr-terra debt
will mature. A part of this maturing
debt Is represented by the Victory notes
and war saving securities. There is no
doubt that Secretary of the Treasury
Melton has had this In mind when he
was oons-dering the funding of ths debt
which the allies owe no the United States.
Of course the government will not be able
to pay t7.tC0.Cve.CCe for the redemption
of Victory notes, certificates of Indebted
ness and war saving securities. There-
tore some method of funding these obliga
tions must bs adopted.
A good deal of American capital went
across the seas while the war was in
progress, but ths excitement occasioned
by the war caused thla movement to be
overlooked. Perhaps the greater part of
thla American capital went abroad for
the purpose of paying for American se
curities of which from three to four bil
lions were held la Great Britain and la
Europe) at ths time the European war
began. I
No authoritative method has beea
adopted of determining bow many of
these American securities our own ln
v tors bonght and abssrbed. But the
g era Impression is that there are bow
1- the falted States eenaidrably In excess
of H.eO'.fCC.Ooe in American securities
which, before lilt, were held by investors
In Great Britain and ia Europe. Mr.
Watta estimates that the amount of ss
curitiea our Investors purchased from
European holder was a little ia excess
of l,0,t.t. Perhaps be has under
estimated. This absorption of American
securities eras ona of the factors ia bring

Cattle Just a fair run of cattle showed
tip for the opening days ef the week.
' about I.Ctt being reported in, but heavy
runs and bearish markets at other points
weakened the situation, and outside of
few sales of good, light, bandy steers,
which were steady to strong, the steer
trade was slow and barely steady with
last week's low time. Shippers paid IS IS
1.11 for prime light hsady weight
ateera, but outalda of that very little was
sold over IS. eft. Demand for cow stuff
waa very light and prices alow to lower.
Etockera and feeders were slow, but about
steady with the low time last week.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire.
Chicago, July 5. There was a
sharp break in pricei for wheat dur
ing the last 30 minutes. Locals
bought wheat early, anticipating a as to price movements characterized
rise, and selling by these buyers was j today's markets. Trading in itocks
withered away to the point that the
turnover was the imaHest in nearly
a year, where as in the bond market
there was activity and strength, this
being a duplicate of the v situation
which prevailed last Friday. Cotton
gave a belated rflection of the gov
ernment's crop report showing low
acreage and yield, and prices for a
time moved forward buoyantly.
In the grain market, however,
sharp declines were registered on
word that the drouth in the north
west had been broken. As for for
eign exenange, rates held within nar
row limits and the close of the day
found sterling and francs slightly un
der the previous close.
Strength in the bond market was
undoubtedly a continuation of the
July reinvestrrent demand which be
gan to make its appearance at the
close of last week.

were off SH6J4c Corn was 3jgg4c
lower and oats were lje2c lower.
Hedging pressure on corn is becom
ing heavier, as receivers are advis
ing country shippers to sell the July
and apply the cash corn against the
purchase, as spot corn is bringing
only 2?2c under July. .
Rye was 46c lower and barley,
Jie off. Pork was 10c higher to 10c
off, lard unchanged to 2Vic higher
and ribs 1215c lower. Local cash
sales were 15.000 bushels of wheat
90.000 bushels of oats, including
50 000 bushels t L f. Buffalo and
1,500 bushels of barley. Seaboard
reported oO.OOO bushels of corn
worked for export. Sales of 10,000
bushels of wheat and 100,000 bushels
of corn were made to go to store
Weak raaerton ta Wheat.
Wheat had a weak undertone and the
market was onen an hour before one
could detect any buying worthy of the
title of good. ATI ia favor nf tK con
structive aide of the market seemed to
have loot hope over the holidaya. This
was due to the fsct that the Canadian
wheat belt received a good soaking snd
beneficial rains and cooler weather were
general over the Americaa northwest.
Selling pressure was general, but most of
the orders were executed through north
west houses, confirming the improvement
in the crop outlook.
The sharp break In Winnipeg con
firmed the improved Canadian crop out
look. There was a resting order to buy
July at 11.20 In the market and this gsv
the current month a semblance of steadi
ness, bnt September reached 11.11 before
commission bouse buying of good charac
ter developed. The movement of wheat
was not quite so large as anticipated, the
three days arrivals totaling only ! cars.
