During the session of the institute late
yesterday afternoon papers of marked in
terest were read on municipal improve
ments. The most important of these was
that presented by Mr. Albert Kelsey Of
Philadelphia on The Modern City Mr.
Kelsey discussed the development of the
city from every possible point of view. The
lantern slides with which he illustrated his
lecture were. made from pictures taken in
every city OF the world, and Illustrated the
best ideas of municipal improvement along
true architectural lines. During the course
of his remarks Mr.. Kelsey said that what
the people of the United States want Is new
and real architecture along original lines
When the American architects were called
upon to design building and It's ap-
proaches and were given free rein they in
variably selected a style or type that has
survived from the time of some great, IL
centious and luxury-lovfng monach of Eu-
rope. The taxpayer is not going to stand
for such things.
Modern ideas are what are needed in
American architecture. he declared, and if
these were properly presented and worked
out the acceptance OF them by the people
who pay the freight cannot be doubted Mr.
Kelsey asked that modern themes be seized
upon and worked out in the preparation of
new designs. He showed his screen q
picture of the famous frieze around the

idea. 1t was proper that the architect Of
today should look to some of the things of
today to secure Ideas for the modern build
ing Turnings from the frtezes of the great
Paris building. Mr.. Kelsey showed a pic
ture of the interior OF an operating room
In one of the modern hospitals. This he
said, was an unlimited field for use In the
development of IDEAS He said that the
pictures that artists refuse to work UP are
modern happenings and everyday occur
rences which are replete with color and in

tober found considerably less wool avail

stated that merino wool will be scarce, the
arrivals in Sydney showing a decrease of
between 10000 to 5000 bales, as compared
with the returns for the same period last
year. There Is also noted decrease in
lambing. being 10 per cent below that OF
last year. It Is feared that good quality of
wool will be scarce. and owing to the lin

good prices. The reports add that the only
possible chance for an immediate rise will

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK, December 13.-In the Lon
don stock exchange this morning American
shares were strong under the lead OF our
strong rally yesterday. This Improvement
of from y to u per cent above our closing
prices last evening had good effect on
the opening of the local stock exchange
here today. and the general list In conse-
quence was remarkably steady. There was
however, sufficient supply of realizing Or
ders In the hands of the commission houses
to check any disposition to go too fast with
the rally that started yesterday afternoon.
The hope for fair bank statement, too.
prevented much short selling at the start
and made II necessary for only conserva-
tive support from the big interests In the
street.
After the first few minutes of trading a
stronger tone developed throughout the
general list, and by the first half hour good
advances were shown; after that however
trading generally diminished in volume and
traders were disposed to hold off pending
the appearance of the bank statement
There was little covering of shorts in
the first rally and some semi-investment
purchases for turn, but this in turn gave
place to rather free selling on the announce
ment that President Castro had rejected
the ultimatum of the German government.
On this pretext the selling carried the mar
net SoilsiueId DeIOW the DeSC figures
the early trading, and there was also dis
appointment shown at the small reduction
In the loans when e bank statement was
published.
The showing in the latter item led to the
belief that a further contraction of bark
accommodations might be looked for next
week
In the late trading st. Paul had declined
per cent from its highest, Louisville and
Nashville fell per cent and there were
net losses of 1 per cent and over recorded
In the general list. The market closed ac-
tive and weak at about the lowest prices
of the day. Government bonds were I'M
changed. while railroad bonds, after OPEN
ing strong, receded somewhat later on sales
of stocks.
The bank statement showed a loss in law
full money by the banks of about So O95 200.
or about 100000 less than yesterdays esti-
mate. Another encouraging feature was
the decrease of S2000.000 in the loans.
which, of course, did not include the reduc-
ton which is to be expected from the
heavy liquidation which occurred on Fri
S1O00,Oo0 larger than called for by the
changes first noted. The net result brings
the surplus reserve down to IS, $50 800
1t is worth noting that the money re-
ceived from the interior this week does not
come from the west, but from near points
and probably a good deal was to remargin
stock accounts. The New York syndicate
payment Monday is the last large payment
of its kind in sight. consequently it is not
unreasonable to suppose that we may have
a little more comfortable money condi-
tons next week than has been the case
this week.

Der 12.-The British cruiser Charybdis, fly
ing Commodore Montgomery's flag, and the
German cruiser Vineta and the German
training ship Stotsch arrived here today
and have taken positions commanding the
town and fortresses.
Several merchantmen. the Dutch steamer
Prinz Willem ~, the British steamer Of the
Harrison line and a royal mail steamer
arrived off the port today, but were pre-
vented from entering the harbor by the
captain of the British cruiser Indefatigable,
who said he would not be responsible for
what might happen II the vessels were
allowed to enter.
The steamers applied for lighters to en-
able them to discharge their cargoes, but
the request was refused by the customs
house authorities, who declared the vessels
might enter the port as usual, there being
no reason for their remaining outside.
All ammunition Is being removed from
the fortresses and barracks here and taken
to Caracas. and it Is apparently the inten-
tlon of the government to abandon the
town.
