FI NANGIM REVIEW OF BUSINESS Mixed Situation in Financial DLs- Very trictGold Imports Renewed. The Lahor Situation. (Special Star Correspondence). nfgw York, June 18. Because of nu merous and strongly conflicting forces very mixed situation exists in the fi nancial district. The war is being pjore vigorously crashed than ever and - ide from a fearful waste of life, is costly over $80,000,000 daily, a goodly ortion of which is coming this way. This latter sum is not all additional loss because many millions would be Lent in any event for feeding and clothing the millions of men if engag d in peaceful pursuits. Armies and navies would have to be paid for even n time of peace, and it should be re membered that the territory and indus- trial plants plants of two of the most important belligerents have thus far escaped without damage. The awful struggle has cost terribly in blood and wealth, some losses being entirely be yond calculation; but some deductions j,ave to made from current outlays, and nothing is gained by exaggeration or miscalculation. The financial posi tion of some of the belligerents will je a serious matter of adjustment when peace comes, and that period cannot be safely predicted. There is a very . sug gestive growth of optimism in this di rection, and belief grows with strange reistence that the war will end dur- mz the present year rather than face another dreadful winter. Expectation of peace mast have some foundation; though whether it has its orisin in weariness of spirit among those who suffer or recognition of corn ins disaster by those who govern, can- rot be determined. Perhaps war mad ness is giving way to peace sanity at least let us hope so. As peace approaches this country will gradually adjust itself to the new conditions. A few departments of in dustry may suffer, but many more will benefit by return to the normal. Tem porary reactions may come with or af ter peace, but it stands to reason that in the long run the world will benefit by restoration of production efforts and the stoppage of destruction. Very likely the recuperative powers of all the contestants will be greater than expected- We will lose much of the mu nition traffic, but may look for expan sion in steel and other industries, in foreign trade, in shipping, and in de velopment of the many enterprises de ferred by war. This country is wonder fully strong industrially and financial ly, and is better prepared in many re spects cost of production expected . for trade expansion than any other na- . tion. . Another favorable factor is the poli tical outlook at home. Many business interests are gratified at the nomina tion of Mr. Hughes as"' the Republican candidate, since his leadership not only strengthens their hope of success, but also assures a campaign free of un necessary animosities and disturbances. The nomination of Mr. Wilson means a check to extreme radicalism. As al ready stated in these advices, the chief issues will be patriotism, preparedness and the. tariff, the : two former includ ing a more vigorous though peaceful foreign policy. Since there is no great division of opinion about these prob lems, the outlook is for a comparative ly quiet, although lively campaign. The output of new legislation will be at a minimum. ' Gold imports have been renewed, over $50,000,000 have already, arrived, evi dently with the intention "on the part of London of keeping the exchange sit uation i na favorable position and pre venting the firmer rates which looked . probable a , week or; two ago. Thus far the exchange situation has been skilfully handled, in spite of enormous foreign nnrrhasM rf m nnitlnnq t and what with the establishment lof large credits, the return of foreign in vestments, and gold imports, the sit uation is well under control. Our home business outlook continues very satis factory. Crops are rather backward, the composite average of condition? according . to the government report, being 9 per cent below, last year, .chief ly on account of injury to wheat. Farm- cm, uuweyer, are securing gpoo. pric es for their crops, and in view of the surplus wheat carried over no scar- . city is anticipated. Fruits and hay promise big yields. Nearly all pjroduc- ers of raw materials are securing good prices for agricultural and mineral products alike. Many divisions of la bor, especially those engaged in muni tions, are securing abnormally high ages. and these promote trade activ ity. TVar profits have stimulated trade in many directions, in some cases to the point of extravagance. If we look at the reverse situation, the unfavorable factors are fairly num erous, and somewhat spotty. Perhaps the most unfavorable feature is the Mexican situation, which is threatening and will probably develop with more r less clearness during the next few eeks. Another element of weakness !s the liquidation in munition shares, which are inevitably affected by the shrinkage of orders in. that direction. The motor stocks have also come some- U'hat intn a a a i . . manipulation, also the failure of the newly proposed combination which should be really regarded as a whole some feature, inasmuch as it proves that the best of banking opinion is op Posed to such wholesale and question , able promotion schemes. Had this flo- Lion neen successful It would un doubtedly have excited much, hostile criticism and probably started arioth er anti-corporation : movement.- "One other element of grave uncertainty h'ch cannot be overlooked is the la bor situation. The recent advances in wages In the munition industries and the spectao u'ar profits which they have enjoyed seem to have completely upset the la bor leaders, and a return to normal conditions after the war will not be fasy to accomplish. The controversy between the railroads and their em ployes is also of a threatening char acter, and is seriously disturbing confl uence. . The steady offering of Ameri can stocks held abroad has also tend ed to prevent recovery in railroad snares and high grade investments that "light otherwise have occurred. Ru rs of a United States bond issue in "s direction were suggestive. Ru av!irs f a British bond issue were prob biy without foundation, and due to distribution of a large block of se bonds as dividend by a prorflin 'Jr "munitions concern. A Russion loan 51 SoO.000,000 was offered and quickly taken, it is also reported that a rnch loan is impending, and other ations are seeking fresh credits, th these two sets, of conditions lve glance appears to favor, moderate- hopeful views. Certain - epecifie AND nearby prospects are good, while the more distant outlook is uncertain. From either standpoint, careful discrimina tion is necessary. Many of the specu la J haVe ha & bis rise and rurther liquidation is in prospect. On theother band, the better class of in vestments, particularly the railroads, have been somewhat neglected. There is an. abundance of money seeking em ployment, and well chosen investments can be made with confidence. HENRY CLEWS. MARINE. AnlveA. Str. Cherokee, Bunnell. Georgetown. C J. Becker, agent.

Prices React. New Orleans, La., June 18. Weath er conditions ruled the cotton market last week, prices reacting from the ear ly decline on complaints of too much moisture in the belt. Price fluctuations were narrow, the extreme range being 19 to 22 points. Early in the week, the trading months were sent 15 to 20 points under the previous week's cloee. From this, there was a rise to a level of two to four points above. The close was at 'a'net loss of five to seven points. Liquidation around the opening of the week . was checked by the large con sumption figures -for American mills, put out Tuesday by the Census Bureau, and .ja favorable influence later was the weakness of the ocean freight rate market. Locally the rates to LiveioolJ was cttt to l.TS per nunareu puuuuo, the lowest price since November. This week-the market promises to be a. weather affair, although there Is an Increasing depression to pay more at tention to the Mexican situation,, con tinued rains would stimulate bullish sentiment . and excessive- rains would create something closely resembling a crop scare." Wet weather would favor the spread of the boll weevil, regarding which there is already some complaint. On the other hand, fair weather would encourage short selling. INDUSTRIES MOBILIZING Result of Campaign for Industrial Pre paredness in Event f War. New York. June 18. The nation-wide campaign to prepare American factor ies for war mobilization inaugurated several weeks ago by the United States naval consulting board's committee on industrial preparedness, is proceeding "swiftly" and "satisfactorilytt the com mittee announced today. Already most of the 100,000 leading "Industrial con cerns' of the country have notified the committee of their mobilization possi bility, it was stated, and : the thirty thousand " engineers in' charge of the field work are daily Bending in to the committee's - headquarters here hun dreds f filled, in inventory forms showing the capacity of factories to manufacture jwar material. . -The response of the manufacturers shows the "most intelligent patriotism and the deepest interest," the commit tee says. -j . COMMERCIAL WEEKLY SUMMARY STOCKS Domestic Polities, Mexican Affairs and European Situation Were the In fluential Factors. New York, June 18. Domestic poli tics, Mexican affairs andthe European situation were influential factors in the financial market last week, the lattei being the most significant because of the greater demands which are likely to be made upon this country's banking resources. Consummation of the $50000,000 Rus sian Loan was followed by well defin ed reports of further undertakings for England and France, which contribu ted in part to the heavy selling ol Anglo-French fives at substantial con cessions. "It is understood that the French negotiation is well toward com pletion. As for a direct British loan, it is authoritatively stated that matters have not yet passed beyond' the stage of informal discussion. Meantime, ex ports to the countries of the Entente Allies continue in stupendous volume and the movement of British gold from Canada to this, center has swollen to about $62,000,000 with a resultant stif fening of this country's rates at Lon don. Financial interests realize that the Mexican situation is again critical. Se curities of foreign companies operat ing in that republic denoted greatest depression in the lower quotations of the final session last week. Continued interruptions in the con ference between the railroads and their employes was reflected in heaviness of rails, partly neutralized by the restor ation of dividends to the rates existing before the outbreak of the European war by Louisville & Nashville and sev eral less important lines. The stock market was wholly in the hands of the speculative element. Further liquidation of specialties was observed, especially in sugars, which was notably strong. DEGREE BESTOWED UPON PROF. CAIN MUCH DESERVED HONOR University Man One of Leading Engin eers of the Country. (Special Star Correspondence.) Chapel Hill, June 18. When the Uni versity of South Carolina at its last commencement conferred the degree of LL.D. upon Professor William Cain, it gave public recognition to the splendid work which Professor Cain has done in the field of higher mathematics. Pro fessor Cain has been head of the de partment of Mathematics in the Uni versity since 1889. Before coming here he taught for some time in the Cit adel, Charleston. S. C He also fought in the Southern army during the Civil War. Professor Cain, an ex-director of the American Society of Civil Engineers, Is one of the leading engineering spe cialists in the United States, and is known as an authority on engineering all over the world. The theories and formulas he has developed are widely employed; and his .text books are used at leading educational centers, such at Columbia and Cornell. His most nota ble contributions to science have been made with reference to the theories of arches, stresses in bridges, struc tures and dams, retaining walls, ant" earth pressure. During the past 65 years he has made many contributions to scientific jour nals, notably Van Nostrand's engin eering magazine. Engineering News Journal of the Franklin Institute, Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the Mitchell Scientic Society Journal. It is a matter of national interest as well as a distinguished recogni tion of the scientific rank of Professor Cain, that the experimentation on the cohesion of tarth, which he has recent ly recommended in an elaborate paper is to be undertaken, by the United States Bureau of Standards. SECOND PRIMARY Much Interest in Race for Candidates For the House In Pitt. (Special Star Correspondence). Greenville, N. C, June 18. Much in terest "is being taken in the race between-. Mr. Laughinghouse and Mr. Clark, for the House. Both are work ing hard and it is expected to be. a close vote. Friends of each seem con fident. For register of- deeds. Bell and Gaskins are moving things for them selves. The fight for two more com missioners, three having been nominat ed in th eftrst primary, does not create as much interest as the others. All are at work and the poor fellow who does not learn something of the queli fications of each candidate and other peculiar qualifications he may possess for his especial goal, is mighty hard of hearing and understanding.
