NEW YOUK, July 30. Renewed talk of peaco was entirely Ig nored as a factor at tho cotton opening, virtually all tho attention of the traders being centered around tho good growing conditions in the South. As a result there was an easier tone with prices 4 to 42 points net lower. September was an exception, being carried up 4 points on competitive bids. Room traders purchased and New Orleans houses also bought, but other southern Interests sold. A supply came from spot houses and Liverpool. Commlslort firms operated on both sides. The market was quiet during the middle of the day, with fluctuations narrow and irregular. There was a good deal of bear ish talk around tho ring, but on the whole the market showed a steady undertone with prices holding pretty close to Satur day's closing figures. New crop cotton Is beginning to show up at many points In southwest Texas, and a report from Edna, Texas, dated July 24, said that twenty bales were ginned- on that day and that the season would soon be In full swing. The receipts at the ports for the day are estimated at 4000 bales, against 4267 bales last week, 7428 bales a year ago and 3056 bales two years ago. Sat'day's 12:00 1-S0 2 00 close. Open. M. P.M.

Peace Talks Made With Eyejni Russia Continued from I'aie One or Bulgaria, thero was no specific mention of those nations. It was believed hero that the simultaneous uttcrancos of similar tenor from both Vi enna and Berlin emphasized tho growing desire for peaco In tho Teutonic nations. Although Dr. Mlchaelis has flatly assorted there will bo no renewed offers of peace from tho Central Powers, and that the next movo Is up to tho Allies. It will cause no surprise should tho Hntento nations bo asked to state their peace terms by tho Vatican In tho near future. I-ailing this. It already Is certain that when the German nclchstag reconvenes In September tho Government will bo asked to transmit tho "no-Indomnlty. no-annexatlon" resolution to the Kntente Powers. Thero Is a strong possibility, however, that the war alms of tho Hntento as sub scribed to by tho United States will havo been outlined beforo then Russia Is to press for an early convention to restate tho principles of tho Allied cause. Both trance and Great Britain have agreed to her sug gestions. ..v. It Is expected mm n ; ..-..-.. succeeds In restoring discipline In the Rus sian army and checking the Gorman ad vance that tho convention will meet be fore September 1. Much admittedly depends on tho manner In which tho Russian Cabinet Is reorgan ized Kcrensky has announced that thero will be no change In the Government's pro gram. However, advices received from Petrograd show that tho non-Soclallst ele ments are demanding that all social re forms be postponed until after the war ends, that anarchy be stamped out by tho death penalty, that Cabinet members be made nonresponslve to their poll leal parties and th,at the war be continued along the lines suggested by the Allies. While Government heads said today there could be no posslblo peace basis under Ger many's and Austria's latest declarations, the Senato showed some symptoms of ask Ing for a general statement of war alma and peace terms, .... , The American Union Against Militarism, a poaco organization led by Amos Plnchot and others, Is conducting propaganda with such a statement In view. And Senator Borah has declared there ought to be a clear statement of how far the United States expects to go with Its program of making the "world safe for democracy." In tho circumstances, authorities thought It possible that Buch a statement might be forthcoming. In connection with peace suggestions, officials today pointed out the speech of Seoretary of State Lansing at Plattsburg last night as carrying a strong answer, LONDON SUSPICIOUS OF MICHAELIS'S INTERVIEW lildo the public Into belief that Germany Is beset by lapnclous foes who started the war to dismember Germany, Is what Lon don saw today behind thn "peaco Inter view s" granted by Chancellor Mlchaelis, of Gei many, and Foreign Minister Czernln, of Austria. Tho reported presonce In Switzerland of Mathlas Frzliergcr. Cleilcal leader nnd recent head of the Reichstag coalition, presumably as a peaco negotiator, was re gat ded as proof that the militarists delib erately staged tho "recent crisis" In tho Parliament and hat Urzbcrgcr was merely a tool (if those Interests, Mlcbaells's peaco Interview was rather an assault on KngUnd and Franco. Ho charged tho Allies with secret agreements alining at "enslavement of Germany." Ho was p.iiticularly bitter In responding to Sir IJdward Carson's suggestion that tho first step toward peace would be for Ger many to annouueo her willingness to sur render occupied territory. Tho Austrian Minister reiterated that Austria-Hungary was ready to accept an honorable peace, but that the dual moil nrchy In conjunction with Its allies, would fight to tho last extremity If the Kntente T'oworn declined to enter negotiations on the basis of a peaco by understanding, as re cently outlined by tho Gcrmun Imperial Chancellor und tho Reichstag. Of curious collateral Interest In tho peaco talk was an interview attributed to Doctor Rrzberger at Zurich, lu which ho declared if he could talk with Premier Lloyd Georgo or Foielgn Minister Ilalfour a few houis an "undei standing" which would permit peaco negotiations would result. This nftcrnoon's newspapers Urtually Ig nored tho Mlchaelis and Czernln state ments In their editorials. The Westminster Gazette, howetcr, recalled Premier Rlbot's promise a short time ago to publish In full tho text of all agreements between Franco and Russia, nnd suggested this would gle full proof of tho falsity of the German arguments. ERZBERGER'S STATEMENT EXCITES PAN-GERMANS ROTTERDAM, July 30. Tho declaration of Dr. Mathlas Hrzbcrger, leader of tho Clerical Party in the Reichs tag, that he could arrange a basis for peace within a few hours If allowed to talk personally with Premier Lloyd Georgo, has caused a sensation, said advices from Ber lin today. The Pan-German nowspnpers especially are excited over this and other statements from Doctor Krzberger, who Is now In Swit zerland presumably on n peaco mission. Tho Cologne Volkszeltung quotes tho Clerical leader ns saying In an Interview with a Zurich Journalist; "Tho nomination of Doctor Mlchaelis to the German Chancellorship Is not a weaken ing of tho peaco motion In the Reichstag, but a strengthening of It In every way. "lt would certainly bo, a crlmo not to do all that Is possible to prevent another win ter campaign. After nil, it Is still posslblo to prevent that. Indeed, there Is already a foundation for coming to a compromise with England, although that Is whero the shoe pinches In effecting fi lasting peace." BERLIN PLEASED BY MICIIAELIS INTERVIEW BRRLIN, via London, July 30, Chancellor Mlchaelis's novel plan of making public hl Important utterance re vealing the Allies' alleged plans of conquest through an Interview with Berlin news papermen was hailed In editorial comment today as Indicating the Government's recog nition of the press nnd of public opinion. Rerlln fully approved the sentiments the new Chancellor expressed. All editorial comment was favorable. Tho Vosslsche Zeitung declared that Kng land "was undoubtedly the father of the Franco-Russian treaty of conquest." "England," It added, "makes Franco fight for the disintegration of Kurope."

Ct V POLITICAL PLOT Tho Mj.eclaros tho tales were twisted by political opponents to discredit liln ad ministration nnd to weaken the organization here "It la theso people who thus Incited the whites to riot by telling such stories that aro responsible for the killing of five peo ple." Tho police docket confirm the Mayor's statement on the disposition of the two enses. Tho Mayor defended his action In allow ing saloons to open today by stating that he believed that the town has returned to al most Its normal condition, nnd that keeping the saloons closed would mako the people here beliovo that an abnormal condition still existed "This town was Insane," he said, "but I bellevo that tho people have returned to their senses nnd there will be no moro trouble. If trouble does develop, the saloons will be Immediately closed." When tho saloona were opened this morn ing the proprietors were notified that they would have to closo at 9:30 tonight.

No troublo Is anticipated at the funeral A bitter political fight between rival fac tions In Chester hero has played an Import ant part In tho recent race riots, according to the opinions expressed by many resi dents today. Not only has lt been charged repeatedly that politicians were using negroes for political put poses nnd protecting them when they wore sought by tho police, but a storm of protest has been nroused by the holding of tho threo white guards charged with murder, while two negro guarilB. found armed with shotguns after the fight of Saturday night, have been releasod on their own recognizance. Thero Is every Indication of an open break between tho factions today. intensely aroused. seeral Innuentlal citi zens fctntcd openly that liquor organizations were reBponslblo Tor tne reopening oruer which was termed an outrage. D, G, Hendricks, a retired merchant of Chester, and foe of tho liquor crowd, Issued a statement charging "gang politicians" with being responsible for tho whole trou ble. Owing to protection, he said, "gun toting" negroes beliovo that they can com mit any crlmo shott of murder In Cheater and get away with It, ho explained. Mayor McDowell replied to the Hendricks charges and criticized him for lack of Judg ment. It was agreed that the situation today Is far from promising. It Is considered likely that tho troublo will be renewed at any time, A hot verbal battlo Between Sheriff Hey burn and District Attorney Hannum. at least. Is expected today as tho result ot the arrest of the three guards charged with murder. They are Newman Stockdale, George W. Kills and Fred Orfleld, white guards, of Kddystone, who have been lodged In the Media Jail since David Schwartz, a white chauffeur for the police, and James Riley, a negro guard at Fry's hotel, were killed In tho battlo on Saturday night. The Sheriff Is standing squarely by the men under arrest nnd will appear today be fore Judge Johnson and demand their re lease on habeas corpus proceedings. Sheriff Heyburn also 1b credited with having prevented virtually a strike among the other guards, who considered quitting when they learned that threo of their num ber had been arrested. , Pivimm3 iniuiivnuu ivvuf, j FOR RESORT. ?S CHARffi 7 '- ( Official Starts Action for Ejeo- , J.5 !

That made Yearsley sore, and since then he has had lt in for Levin. 1 don't know what Yearsley meant about paying. I guess It was Just 'ram talk' delivered In the heat of anger.

July 30. General John J. Pershing, commander , of tho American forces, left Paris at an early hour this morning to pay his first visit of Inspection to the permanent Amer!- can baso camp. The General traveled by motor and, barring possible accident, was scheduled to reach General Slbert's head quarters some time In the afternoon. Preparations were made to give the American commander a fitting welcome. Throughout the morning an nlr of unusual activity pervaded every quarter of tho camp. Rifles wero cleaned with extra thoroughness, sabers were polished till they glinted In the July sun Bhlne and uniforms and shoes wero given an extra brushing. The men were determined to .make the best posslblo showing, m Russians Check Teuton Advance Continued from rate sine concentrated their Si'vlest forces of men and the greatest marses of mobile artillery. Their object Is evidently to break the Rus sian front In that sector, If possible, and then to swing to the north and south In two great flanking movements. The Germans struck at the most sensitive part of the Russian front when they thrust from the direction of Trembovla, driving to cut the railroad connecting Tarnopol and Buczacz. This disunited elements composing tho Eleventh Russian Armies and exposed the Russian right flank. Taken In connection with the military aspect, the mornle ot the Russians has been lowered by Nicholas Lenlne, the radical ex tremist, and pro-German agents, who were working from Petrograd, spreading mutiny and discontent among the troops. Following the pounding of German ar tillery and the sharp attacks of storming troops, the Russian lines crumbled at Bat kow nnd the Sixth Grenadier Division began deserting. The retreat has continued ever since, al though the Germans havo been retarded by strong roarguard attacks at some points. In the sector of the Czeremosx River, the Germans forced a passage near Kuty and are moving toward Storozynetz, which Is fifteen miles southwest of Ciernowlts. German military critics are of the belief that the Russian retirement cannot be checked until all the Russians are out of Gallcla and Bukowlna.
