New York, Aug. r. With no im
provement in the. industrial situntion
overnight, the cotton market, after it
200-point break of yesterday, opened
e.iry again, with September 5 points
lower and other months 22 lo 40 points
lower than last night.
Selling at the outset was less gen
eral and heavier than expected in view
of the weak cables, but it broadened
after the opening, led by Liverpool,
which was a large seller on balance.
Commission -house business increased
ns prices gave wny, and shortly after
the initial call the nctive list was 57 to
(2 points under Inst night's final price.

NEW YORK COFFEE MARKET
New Yorlt, Aug. 5. The early dc
dine was checked around 20.50
December nnd 20.55 for March by sup
porting orders from a large Ynll street
houfe believed to be nctlng for promi
nent importers nnd jobbers. This de
mand was mostly for the March posi
tion. Shorts covered in December.
It is noted that in face of declines in
other mnrkets, Havre has advanced 5
to 0 frnncs during the past week. This
has been expluined bj the fact that
shorts were covering in September
which cnrrlcd these months upward.
The market has been in the hnnds of
speculative interests for some time past.

Little attention
weather news
The early lueak carried
about 5 cents per pound below the
high records established toward the i
end of July and about 4 cents be- ,
low the high prices of last Saturday,
morning. '
This attracted heavy profit-takinK by,
recent sellers, while there was also some
trade bujins. which caused rallies of
some 70 to 100 points from the lowest
nnd gave the market n steadier tone
There was no change in the general
chnraeter of the news, but the more ur I
gent liquidation seemed to have run ,
its course on the early break, and I
there was not a great deal of selling
here for southern account.
The receipts at the ports today are
estimated nt 12,000 bales against 15,310
bales a week ago and 8004 bales a year
ago.

Trade in Oil Group Brisk Senti i
ment Is Cheerful I
London, Aug. 5. Trading in the oil '
group on 'he btock exchange wns brisk
today, with sentiment cheerful. Do
mestio securities were confused, tin
threatened extension of the walkout of
some railway employes offsetting the,
strike of the police, which Ims pnncd
n failure.
The gilt-edged section was softer.
Argentine rails were, however, pur
chased and mining issues were in free- I
supply. I
(icnerally the markets were irregular.

These notes are the direct obligation of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, which
manufactures and sells smoking and chewing tobacco. Its leading brands are Camel
cigarettes and Prince Albert smoking tobacco, the largest selling single brands in the
world.
The company has no bonds or other funded debt outstanding except dividend scrip to
the amount of approximately $1,500,000.
On June 30, 1919, net quick assets were over $50,000,000.
The company covenants that the quick assets shall at all times be maintained in sum
equal to at least twice the amount of notes outstanding and all other liabilities, other than
notes secured by United States government obligations.
The company also covenants that, so long as any of the notes are outstanding, it will
not mortgage or pledge any property except U. S. government obligations.
For the past five years the average earnings have exceeded six times the annual inter
est requirements of this issue.
The proceeds of the notes will be used to meet the requirements of the company's
constantly growing business.
