General situation satisfactory.

Outside of the stock market the situation
continues generally satisfactory, the only
exception being the prospect of further
labor troubles. which are already increas-
ing the costs of production to a point that
is checking new enterprises. Railroad earn
ings continue large and the iron trade boom
shows no signs of cessation. The phenome-
nal demand for iron is one of the wonders
Of the age, and is to be attributed to it's
introduction into many new fields of use
rulness, as well as the enormous consump-
ton for structural purposes in buildings,
railroads. etc. The demand on the latter
account Is sure to continue for some time
to come, and both Germany and England
are being urgently called upon to Salty our
requirements, Notwithstanding the tariff.
The immediate future of the market is,
as already stated, exceedingly uncertain.
Natural conditions should favor some i'm
provement as soon as the strtngency incl
dental to April l is passed, but the serious
contingencies referred to above, especially
tle danger of awkward complications aris-
ing from the Southern-Union Pacific quar-
rel, emphasize the necessity for caution in
speculative operations. Although. in some
respects, the market is in much better
shape than for several months. we should
advise taking profits on all sharp rallies,
at least until the differences between
Messrs. Keene and Hartman are adjusted.
The interests represented by these gentle
men may however, settle the dispute when
least expected; hence the high degree Of
uncertainty.

STOCK MARKET UNSETTLED
Union Southern Pacific Controversy One Of
the Moving Causes
FOREIGN TRADE MAKES GOOD SHOWING
Outside of stock Market the General
Conditions Are satisfactory, with
Demand for Iron Keep
ing Up.

VIEW YORK, March 22-CSpeciaL)-Henry
Clews, in his weekly market letter, says:
The stock market has bevn unsettled by
a series OF conflicting influences. While an
easier monetary situation contributed
towards Improvement, the Southern-Cnion
PaGlhe controversy produced a feeling Of
other favorable developments. As 4 result
there was little If any increase In public
buying OF stocks, and the investment de-
mand is of course still held in check by
the comparatively high rates of money and
the relatively sinai returns which good
securities bring at present high level prices.
The knowledge also that heavy new Sc
curity issues are pending for the impera-
tive purpose of charging terminal facilities
OF the great trunk lines, as well as increas-
ing their general equipment. acted as a
damper upon the general market. Already
there is a surplus of securities hanging
over the market, and the certain prospect
Of a further big increase Is anything but
a bull argument. Still another movement
exciting distrust is the speculation in cop
per and cotton. both of which are exceed
ingly high. A great deal of uncertainty is
also felt over the Southern-Unio Pacific
contest, which, as IL involves a struggle
for control. unpleasantly recalls the con-
sequences of a similar contest in Northern
Pacific. While no such consequences as fol-
owed that memorable occasion seem prob
able, still the possibilities of disturbance
discourage stock market activity. and the
outcome of the suits involving the rights
of one corporation holding stock in another
will be watched with particular concern.
Another suit Of great Importance up Tor
Minnesota against the Northern Securities
company, and, since a whole series of i'm
portant negotiations hang upon this one
suit, IL is easy to understand the significance
attached to its progress. With so many
serious contingencies to be faced, the mar
ket really showed surprising strength and
resistance. Considerable of the buying,
however, was on short account and while
there was a somewhat better undertone re-
sulting from recent liquidat on, the uncer;
tainties above referred to effectually chilled
all serious operations for the rise.

Foreisn Trade HeaIthy.

Our foreign trade just now is in very
healthy condition, last month being the
heaviest February on record in both i'm
ports exports. During the month there
chiefly due to our large taklngs of raw and
semt-manufactured materials which our
own mills and mines are unable to meet.
These large imports are a distinct result of
high prices and trade activity on this side
of the Atlantic, and they promise to con-
pacity becomes able to satisfy our W
needs. Our exports during the same month
were SIS, 000, 600 ahead of the same time last
year., the increase here being chiefly due
to heavy shipments of cotton and corn.
This result is exceedingly satisfactory, in
supply of exchange when the latter is most
wanted, thus materially strengthening our
financial status abroad.
TIL local money market has shown slight
improvement. This was due partly to d.
minished drains by the treasury, partly TO
the currency movement being less unfavor-
able. but chiefly to a transfer Of our de-
mands upon foreign markets. As a result
the latter are slightly firmer, while rates
here are somewhat easier. There is less
situation in New York. the liquidation of
the last few months having done much to
restore confidence in our finances. and, as
funds are plentiful in Berlin, Paris and
London, there is every probability that we
will be able to command all the accommo-
legitimate operations. Any outbreak of
speculation on an extensive or reckless
Jcale would, however. materially weaken
our credit in Europe. At present foreign
bankers are MISUNDERSTANDING better rates
on American loans,s and this would appear
to explain the delay IN placing the Trans
vaal and other goyernrnent loans, which
are probably awaiting easier conditions.

even though trading was slow.
For. the week the receipts have been very

on the other hand, has been brisk, so that
the tendency of prices has been upward.

Field for Colorado InvestEen.s.


SeyeiaI facts liz connection wi,,
Colorado investments stand out prom,
inently and sho1Iu ne considered in
relation to efforts to develop the
resources of the state and promote its
growth.
In the first placs future progress
demands the enlargement of car irri.
gated area. not alone the addition OF
wholly barren land, but also the full
and adequate irrigation of land now
inadequately supplied with water.
In order that Colorado may be made
capable of maintaining as large an
agricultural population as posi- BILE it
will be necessary to reclaim some land
now wholly barren and also to in.
sure full supply of water in many
localities where shortage now makes
agricultural production uncertain and
precarious.
Another fact to be considered il
that the national government will do
little or none of this work except
what it has already undertaken in ths
construction of the Gunnison tuanel.
Nearly everything to be done in this
state in the way of irrigation extern
sion lies outside the scope and purpose
of the national reclamation act.
The chief purpose of that act is to re-
claim barren tracts which would not
be reclaimed by private capital.
Cases like the Gunnison tunael pro
ject will be found to be exceptional.
adopted in few instances because it
is necessary in such cases to embrace
private land within the area to be
reclaimed in order to reach and re-.
claim public land.
1t follows that dependence mist be
chiefly upon private capital. and in
several conpsicuous cases steps have
already been taken to employ such
capital through the provisions of the
Colorado irrigation district law.
Whether the work of reclamation is
done by the federal governm ent or by
private capital, it will have to be
paid for by the land reclaimed. The
question of expense is. therefore. as
broad as it is long, except for the
probability that under private enter.
prise the work would be more econom-
icslly done than by the government
This is the experience in nearly all
cases where private work and govern
ment work are compared.
The next fact of importance is that
the amount of money requisite for the
reclamation work called for by differ
ent enterprises organized under our
irrigation district law is not available
in this state. The bonds voted in ir-
rigation districts will to large ex-
tent have to be placed in the east.
This brings us to the final and all
important matter to De considered.
and that is how to interest eastern
capital in these Investments. 1t is a
subject for the most prudent business
men and ablest fnanciers of the city
to consider with the utmost care. -

lnouncement in this issue, John NJ
Oge, the sycamore from Grand CO
teau, is willing TO go, by making
a score at the next election, q
a representative from st. Landry
to the lower house Of next legisla-

among the voters of yore do not
make untold and serious objection.
IL they do this at the outset,
honest John will not say word
but retire to "the solitude of his
own originality" while the balance
of the world will be none the more
wise as to his many good reasons
for doing SO. If they don't, he will
be apt to be seen on hustings with
whip in hand, behind that laureate
team of his, till the day before the
election, when all St. Landry's
sainted sons will appear at Aprips
resurrection. But, laying all jokes
aside, John is a good fellow, and ad-
mirably capacitated for the posi-
tion of his choice, as is evidenced
by the fact of his being a graduate
OF the far-famed st. Charles Col
lege, located at Grand Coteau, un-
der the management of the Jesuit
Fathers, from which institution SO
many brilliant sons OF Louisiana
have gone out to add to the glory of

Editor CLARION -
| On the 9th inst, it was the
writer's pleasure to witness very
enjoyable affair on the premises of
our well known parishoner, Mr..
Fremont Fnsilier, about three
miles south of Vile Platte. The
entertainment consisted i'm first a
Base Ball game between Mallet
and Faubourg, in which tho for
mer won. It was splendid game,
and was played throughout with
spirit and good Will. A good
dinner, consisting of barbecued
mutton, beef and everything else
that was good.
Fremont Fusilier was master of
ceremonies, and looked like a yene-
rable Filipino chief, on old Ball.
and il one could Judge from the
way he rode and by the immense
sword he wore, the impression
formed would have been that he
did not care whether the reins
broke or not. Messrs. Numa Fon-
tenot and Hon. H. e. Estorge were
his assistants, and aided him in
bringing IN the field as fine a
bunch OF riders as ever straddled a
horse, Teddy Roosevelt to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. A notable
feature of the Tournament was the
splendid horses and the excellent
manner in which they were ham
died. The time made was fast,
and the number OF rings taken by
some showed wonderful nerve,
judgment and keen eyesight.
