Effect Of the Presidents Message on
the Berlin Course.

Effect Of the Presidents Message on
the Berlin Course.
Berlin, Dec. 4.-The message of Presi-
dent Roosevelt caused a mild thrill in
Germany On the bourse where 1t was
eagerly awaited, the message was re-
ceived with uncommon interest and the
market generally was slightly shmu-
lated upon the posting of bulletln
containing President Roosevelts utter
ances about trusts The shares CT the
steamship companies fell one or two
points on account of the immigration
inspection paragraph and the proposed
development of the merchant marine
Several financial journals aver that
there is no reason why the United
States should encourage shipbuilding.
They say that II the United States be-
comes possessed of commercial fleet
she will have to build it, insomuch as
the Attempts to buy German lines OF
steamers have been defeated.
President Roosevelt's words concern
ing the restriction OF immigration con-
tain an unpleasant suggestion in the
present state of depression when, as the
Berliner Volks Zeutung says. the hard
times make an overflow of the laboring
population of Europe necessary. The
free trade and liberal newspapers wei
come the reciprocity recommendations.
but regret that President Roosevelt did
not recommend q specific tariff reduc-
ton.
The first impression Of the PRESIDENT
message in German official circles is
that the repression OF anarchists by in
ternational agreement is much more
likely to be carried thru upon the in
itiative Of the United States than by
that OF any other power
An anti-anarchist proposition from
Germany, along the same lines as that
Of President Roosevelt, is probably al
ready on its way to the state depart
ment at Washington.
The Vossische Zeitung says the presi-
dents message indicates that the feet
of the United States are we'll in the i'm
perialistic path and that ventures
abroad seem to agree with them.
The National Zeitung alludes 20 the
strong and confident tone used by Pres
ident Roosevelt and to his large pur-
poses.
Taking the message altogether, it has
been favorably received both popularity
and officially. The referencens it con-
tains to the late Empress Frederick are
especially appreciated

Chicago, Dec 4.-Despite the early
weak cables wheat took a quick upturn
today opening firm and advancing
strongly on every bit of available bull
lish news. Northwestern receipts are
reported rapidly diminishing aud the
dry weather in the southwest is said
to be very hurtful to the winter crop.
Trade was easy and the demand was
largely by local spectators. Late adj
vices from Liverpool showed an adj
vance and this influenced the Amer
lean markets and there was a rush
for cover by many shorts here, and
a consequent additional advance in
prices. December opened Y to q
higher at 74s to TAX and soon sold
UP to 747s. May opened h@A to rs a
" up at 7SA to 7S1s and sold to 7SA
@7SA.
A whirl of bull speculation struck
wheat in spite of the heavy profit TAX
ing and all prices closed strong. De-
cember sold up to 75Is@75ss and closed
lssQ1a higher at 75M@753s. May closed
791s.
Corn opened with show of much
of the strength exhibited late yester-
day. In spite of the highest price for
the crop receipts We're very small and
offerings light. There was good de-
mand by traders Some strength was
gained from the wheat bulge and prices
advanced to new records for the crop.
December opened X to Y up at 62ss
to 62H. sold to 63as. May started I'M
changed to Is higher at 651a to 657s and
advanced to 66% @66ls.
Great strength was also present in the
corn pit December closed 11s@k up at
6s11. @6sSs. MAY IL higher at 81. having
made record Il above this price.
Light receipts, scanty country ac-
ceptances of cash demand and the
strength in other grains helped oats.
May opened y to X higher at 1875 to
1915. Commission houses were good
buyers and May soon sold up to AK
@44ss, easing back to A on profit TAX
ing.
Provisions opened strong on the
smaller run of hogs. Demand was
good. especially for pork.

Exciting Day in Cotton.
New York, Dec. 4.-Trading on the To-
cal cotton exchange was convulsed yes
terday by the publication at noon Of the
governments estimate of short cotton
crop for the year The figures were 81
GA, 0e0 bales, or nearly 100000 bales less
than the trade generally expected. Cot
ton jumped 81 bale in as many min
utes, amid scenes OF excitement rarely
seen. Brokers fought with each other to
cover short contracts and the pit be-
came pandemonium for several mo-
ments after the report was received. For
three hours thereafter the volume of
business transacted was enormous.
After the first sharp advance Of nearly
forty points slump developed which
carried prices nearly half the way back
to the quotations prevailing before the
figures were made known. Before the
close, however. the loss was regained
and prices were at theih highest.
For several weeks the cotton interests
not only in the United States but thru
cut Europe. have been eagerly awaiting
the governments official statistics, as 1t
was considered that the report would be
accepted as final. Experts had differed
widely in their estimates.

secrecy Of the authorities, certain details
have leaked out concerning the sensa-

were captured. and eighteen Of them
were dressed in women's costumes, their
toilets being elaborate and costly.

A BiIIlon.DolIar Session.

The billion dollar session of Congress
will have credit for the largest military
appropriation ever made, when the
United States is called upon to pay q
peace footing charge of $30S, ,0i2, l03, t.
which is to be added charges yet to be
scheduled. OF this SITS, 900, O05 goes tc
tho army, S7S,00G,073 to the navy, and
tho colossal sum of $i45,25 230 for pen
sions.
The war budget of England is $3.50,
4G7,S40, only 81 ,407,84 of which goes tc
pensions.
France pays $1SG,575,3O0, of which
6O,720, l02 is for pensions.
Germany's war bill is $2lO, ,3O2, $50, out
of which $lG,323, 900 is for pensions.
Russias monster military establish
ment is run on $500, 717,0OO with no pen

Austria pays charge of $50, ,G2G, 900
with no pension roll
Vcrily we are building up military
system on high pressure, in which every
man wants big pay in service and higl

The National Mercantile Company OF Charles
ton BurSted.

Charleston, S. c., February 11.-Efforts
arc being mado here to ascertain tho
amount of money invested in tho Ma
tional Mercantile Company, which has
been closed by the Sheriff, The company
began operations here about year ago
and offered interest at tho ratio of thirty
per cent. Agents were sent out to work
tho State aud several hundred subscri-
bcrs in Charleston have been paying
heavy assessments ever since they got
into the order. There is not book
here to show how the affairs of tho com
pany stood, and the Sheriff is holding
tho establishment under attachments
served by creditors. 1t is expected that
much inside history of tho company will
be brought out in court on Tuesday when
application will be made for the appoint
ment of receiver. This action will be
taken by dcpositOrs, although unless
President White returns here to meet his
obligations it is not likely that one dol
lar will be returned to tho people who
have been making regular payments for
more than year. Whites company was
incorporated under the laws of Delaware
and according to literature sent out
freely there was capital stock of sl5O,-
600. Deposits of 81, 81 and So per month
were received, and at tho expiration of
| thirty-0no months the Investment would
pay at tho rate of thirty per cent. White
people and negroes imagined a fine bust
ness venture and took stock heavily.
They arc somewhat s0ro to-day, as no
word has como from White and ho can
not be located. His head office in Wash
ngton, where business of tho same
kind was carried on, was closed ten days
ago, and the closing OF tho Charleston
branch quickly followed !; ilito, the
President, came to Charleston and said
he was from Sherman, Texas. IIo had a
fine team and seemed to bc enjoying life.
The tiopusitu,s dragged of their invest.
mcnt until they read here that tho com
panv was in the hands of the Sheriff, and
there is not much hope of getting back
| the money paid in.
