CLOUDS CLEAR AWAY
 FROM FINANCIAL SKY
With the New Administration Restoration of Confidence Expected.

New York, Feb. 27.-The profess sional contingent was active today during the short session of the stock exchange which ended the short week, and the opening showed great va riety and irregularity. The strong upward impetus during the first hour carried prices to the highest level since the demoralized break at the opening week.
 The earlier strength was a reflec- ton to some extent from the foreign markets where the brightening pros pect of a settlement between Austria and Servia is hailed as a welcome relief.
 Operators, who professed to have read Tafts inaugural address ex- press satisfaction at it's tenor and the belief that business confidence would be fostered by contents. There were in circulation, well defined re- ports that prospects were shaping for a moderation of the revision of the tariff and that events in the steel trade might be expected to have their influence in that direction.
 The small net changes at the end of the day, in spite of the consider able volume of transactions, offer strong presumptive evidence that sales on account among professional traders on the floor of the exchange was the principle source of activity.
 Bonds were firm.

Attorney General Clark was in charge of the matter and a stenographer was present, for the evidence documentary and oral is be- ing put into a record.
 Some testimony was not immedi- ately available and early in the af- ternoon the hearing was adjourned until nine o'clock tomorrow morning

THE PRESIDENTS PLAN
 FOR NAVAL MANAGEMENT
The Reorganization Scheme Sub mitted to Congress-.

Washington, Feb. 27.-President Roosevelt's commission on naval re- organization, whose final report went to congress today, outlines the new departmental system which the pres ident declares is sound and conserv- ative and in full accord with the American policy.
 It cOntemplates a secretary of the general council, a military council and a redistribution of the duties of the present bureaus into five divisions, the chiefs of which are to compose the grand council, and who are to be an assistant secretary, three flag officers and another flag officer, a naval con- structor and a civilian with technical training.
 In submitting the plan. the president says: Nothing drastic is recommend ed as to bureaus or other agencies by means of which the purely business affairs of the navy department are now administered. The plan outlined does not imply any greater eXpendi- ture of money than at present. It provides merely that the money be spent wisely instead of as at present. spending it so that a certain propor- ton is wasted in useless work"

London, Feb. 27.-The powers are not finding the solution of the Balkan difficulty as easy as they expected a week ago What Russia, in common with Great Britain. attempted, is that an effort be made to have Servia state explicitly it's claims in the way of compensation.
 Before the claims are finally pre- sented the powers desire to know what Austria Hungary is willing to concede, and it has been suggested with this end in view that Vienna should be indirectly approached.

day or two to keep it clean
Keeping poultry dry is of more i'm

they are dry they will be comfortable.
For this reason the hen house roof

The same principle applies to the poul-
try grounds. They should be We'll

Letter

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-There is no
woman whose position demands more
attention to smart dressing than the
business woman. and yet no woman
who is so absorbed in her work that
little or no time seems possible for
what she often feels is least important.
Nevertheless, the majority Of business
women will admit that dress is Il fac
tor and an asset in their success.
Doubtless many women do and have
made great successes in spite Of their
neglect of appearances. but the higher

success and they must look the part Of

alertness. capability and knowing how.
They must appear viVaciOus and full
of vitality, an impossible thing for
most of us under the deVtalizing in
tiuence of old and WORKOUT clothes.
A few of the materials that will be
especially fashionable this fall are
we'll adapted to the development of the
business suit Among these are to be
found French serge-an old standby
prunella, cheviot and mohair. the last
material that might have been in
vented for this express use.
Most women cling to the idea that
for practical use the material should
be of one color and when there is a
fine stripe check or pattern, it is
best shown in the same color, for In
