and Ambassador Bryce followed. NJ. JUS
serand spoke of the satisfaction 1t gave
him to find traces of French pioneers
work in this country in the names OF
various places through which he had
passed, and then he went on to extol the
French explorers. He said that the
French were better sewers than reapers,
but. no matter what had occurred in this
valley or elsewhere in the United States
as to French reaping, he was glad that
they had been good sewers of a sturdy
civilization, and he declared that If they
had not reaped all they had sown they
had reaped one thing. which was the
most important of all. and that was
full measure of American friendship.
Ambassador Bryce paid a tribute to all
the pioneers of this region. He then
made his usual plea for permanent peace
region. He said 1t was bound to be a great
breathing spot of beauty and of rest for
the tired workers of the future, and he
added that it would require the magma
ton and the fruitful pen of real estate
agent to figure out what the price of real
estate hereabout would be in the next
fifty years. He then aroused great en-
thustasm by an eloquent plea to safe
guard and preserve the beauties and
charms of nature in this whole region.
The party then went to another stand
where the President reviewed a mill
tary parade. The President and other
distinguished guests were entertained at
luncheon at the Algonquin Club and aft
erward took an automobile trip about
beautiful Burlington, city of fine resi-
dences in the hills overlooking Lake
Champlain.

New York, Jan. 15.-The principal support for cotton is the strong and active spot markets at home and abroad. To this. more than to any thing else. an advance in futures must be attributed.

A good deal Is for immediate use. and much is simply to replenish reserve stocks Big spot sales continue in Liverpool Man chester reports better China demand. Latterly it's trade with India and the Mediterranean has increased. New York's trade with China Is also larger. Prints have advanced and print cloths are strong.
 Exporters of cotton at the South nnd much of the available cotton accumu- lated at the ports. Interior mark lei ts are so strong they can hardly be touched.
 Meanwhile, dealers and exporters are under heavy agreements to supply mills at home and abroad with cotton for January February shipments, and the ports.are being searched for cotton for
 Freight room for about 40, 1000 bales is said to have been engaged for ship ment to Liverpool. The stock of aboiIt l4S.000 bales of certificated cotton here Is supposed to be mostly owned by Philadelphia interests. The exports continue large. The total keeps about TAO. 900 bales ahead of the same time last year. Spinners takings are over 14,000.00o bales as the probable size sf 800. 900. H''

Heavy realizing developed at the advance and prices eased off to a net decline of S03 points during the middle of the morn ing, but the undertone showed no weakness and leading spot interests were more ag- been previously during the week. This tended to increase apprehension on the part of nearby shorts, as 1t is heinz talked that holders of March and May will be re- Quired to make deliveries of actual cotton and the market became very active and tracts sold up to S.46 and October to g. O1 and six to eleven points net higher. Tho close was e shade off from the top under realizing It was reported during the day that interior holders in nearly all sections of the South were showing a disposition to withdraw their cotton from the market for higher prices.

The demand was not sum cientiy aggressive to promise an an f sf- pendence on the uncovered short inter est in the estimates of an advance In the price of print cloths was welcomed improvement. but this was rather more than offset by another recession In the price Of copper at the New York Metal Exchange. Stocks of copper are said to be accumulatIng. The metal indus trials: in consequeance. were @ rather s.ne1 and Reading shared in the occasional upward move In prices. A feature of the days money market was the re- ported lending of a round amount for thirty days at 1 1-2 per cent a rate considerably below the previous call loan ratel and arguing the expectation therefore of lower money rates. The estimates of the weeks currency move- ment. show that cash is continuing to amounts. The financial world as a whole awaits with much interest the effect to follow the dssue of the Rus sian loan fin Paris next week. The Paris demand for gold continues up to the present sterling exchange falling and the discount rate advancing there today in spite of the action of the cial discount rate yesterday. There is sn under current of uneasiness in the financial world lest the Russian loan issues shall not put an end to this policy of accumulation on the part of the French bank, In which event 1t will be concluded that some ulterior motive exists which may preclude a political upheaval in the near future.

Chicawo Grain Ana Produce

Chicago. Ill. Jan.. 15--A heavy move ment from South of the equator was largely Instrumental in bringing about market here today. As the close the net declines were 1 to 1-S. Corn, oats and provisions also closed weak.
 Liberal shipments from Australia and Argentine inspired free selling of wheat resulting in weak market throughout the entire day. The ex- ports for the week from Argentine were officially placed at 1.512.000 bushels which was fully half mil mated yesterday. while the total move- ment from Australia was given as l. S80.000 bushels. AS this is the first Sse Sf foe the fs0% crop. the eftect here was decidedly bearish. The fact that the bull leaders gave the market very poor support contributei to the weakness. Prices low the previous close before the end of the day further declines of nearly 1c had been recorded. The close was weak and only trifle above the low and July at 96 5-S to 3-4.
 Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 276.000.
 Exports for the week as shown by bushels. Primary receipts were 303.000 bushels compared with 663.000 bushels the corresponding day a year ago.
 Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re- ported receipts of 159 cars.
 Heavy sales by a leading long caused weakness ID corn market. Likelihood that receipts here tomorrow and next week will be must more liberal also inspired free selling for short account which helped to weakness prices. Commission houses took most of the offerings. The market closed weak at the bottom with May at 60 7-8 to 61 and July at 61 1-S to 1-4. Local re- cejpts were 242 cars with seven of con- tract grade.
 The weakness of wheat and corn was chiefly responsible for moderate de- clines in the price of oats. The mar ket closed easy with prices 1-S to 1-4 to IA to 3-S lower than yesterdays close. Final quotations on May were 51 IA and July 46. Local receipts were 15S cars.
 Provisions were easy the entire day owing to a five cent decline in the price of live hogs. The bulk of trad ing was in ribs. The weakness ot grain inspired some sales for short ae- count. The market closed easy with prices a shade higher to 10c lower com pared with the previous close.
