WEEKLY FORECAST
 OF GENERAL NEWS

London and Washington will probably supply news of chief interest this week. From the British capital will probably come by Monday sufficient data on the elections for new parliament to definite ly deside whether the liberals will re- tain effice. or the unionist party step into power.
 In Washington, besides happenings Of importance in Congress, where 'insurg- ent" activity and the adjudication of the Pinchot and Ballinger dispute will be closely followed, problems of national in- terest will be considered by other de- Lucrative bodies
 Methods for bringing about uniform leg islation among the states will be dis cussed in a special meeting called for that purpose under the auspices of the Civic Federation, and governors of the states will confer on conservation plans subsequently.
 Governmental boards of mediation and arbitration will also hold conferences at the capital.
 Peace talk is again heard in connec- ton with Nicaraguan affairs. The situa- tion is 80 uncertain that the week may develop either another battle or set- clement of the differences between the revolutionlsts and the Managua govern ment
 Robert E. Lees birthday will be gen. erally celebrated throughout the south Wednesday. A pressing problem of that section will be taken up at Atlanta, where q conference on the hookworm b to as- semble Tuesday. A national convention of the United Mine Workers of Ameri- ca will meet at Indianapolis Tuesday.

CHINESE TREATY
 PORTS OPENED

Pekin, January 1s-China has opened Hun Chun and I,un Chin Chun in Chien- tao The place is in Manchuria. In ternational trade will have an open mar ket This has been done notwithstand- ing an agreement has not yet been reached with Japan regarding the matter of the tariffs to be collected on the Corean and Manchurian border. The question of tariffs will come up for set- tlement at an early date.
 Hun Chun and Lun Chin Chun are two of the treaty ports provided for In the agreement between Japan and China signed at Pekin September {, last, and designated as an effort to settle tho Chientao boundary dispute. Recently . disagreement arose over the subject of corcar immigration into Chientao. This and the question of the tariffs delayed the promised opening which was expected July 1.
 The opening has been made apparent when 1t is understood the town is situ- ated nine miles northeast of the Corean boundary, 35 miles above the mouth of the Tumon river and less than 100 miles from Vladivostok.

DRY GOODS MARKET
 IS HESITATING

New York, January 16.-The demoral- ization in the cotton market caused very considerable hesitation among cotton goods buyers and sellers. At the same time a very sizable business had been done previous to the final break, Fall River reporting sales of 4B,0O pieces of print cloths for deliveries extending into July.
 Cotton blankets. canton fiannels, domes- tics and other lines of domestic mapped cotton for fall delivery were priced and are being taken on basis of value of cotton under 15 cents. per pound. This low price has induced active trading by jobbers, but many sellers are disposed to regard the low price as unwarranted in view of the increased cost of the staple.
 During the week there have been many payers in the market. They have been op- rating very conservatlvely on domestics, knit goods and hosiery and general lines of ready-to-wear merchandise.
 As the market closed the impression of the merchants was that the break in cot- ton would not be followed by any impor- tant recession in the prices of goods for the reason that values hadn't reached the high basis of cotton at IS cents Yarns are dull and export trade in cotton is quite,

 Sentiment it was which impelled Harry Payne Whitney to enter into negotiations for the repurchase of the famous old Whitney mansion at 871 Fifth avenue, which was once known as the most beau tiful home in America. J. Henry Smith bought the residence in 1904 and intended to reside therein, but he died while on his honeymoon in Japan, and the place fell into the hands of George c. Mason MT. Whitney bought the old home and it's collections of art objects, all of which are worll. nearly $3,00O,O00. Many of them were selecl, by the late Stanford White A feature of the house is a music room 60 feet long and 30 feet high, which was originally in the castle of Phoebus d'Al- bert. Baron of Tours, of the time of Louis XIV. It was moved to Paris in the reign of Louis Philippe and thence to this city by MT. Whitney. The house stands at the corner of Fifth avenue and Sixty-eighth street, with the main en- trance on the street through iron and bronze gates, originally part of the Do- ria palace, Italy. The house Is construct ed of brown stone and is near approach to the Venetian and Florentine palace of the days of Michael Angelo and Leonardo de Vinci.

The Countess Lonyay, former Princess Stephanie of Belgium, and widow of the unfortunate Prince Rudolph of Austria, is the latest royal lady to enter the ranks of literature. It is astonishing what d fad literature has become among the va rious royal princesses.
 The late King Oscar of Sweden wrote poetry and Leopold of Belgium reveled in writing Latin verse. Carmen Sylva Is well known to the world of letters, and Queen Alexandra of England published a book of photographs last year. The Emperor William writes operas; the dow ager Queen of Italy magazine articles; the Prince of Monaco writes for the Paris reviewsi the Duchess of Marlbor- ough, the Duchess of Sutherland, the Duchess de Rohan and whole army Of noble danes of the social world have in- vaded the field of letters. Editors en- courage thei~ efforts. Their works are published, and So the competition is kept up.
 The articie Of a well known newspaper writer would stand TO chance at all against one by Queen Marguerite of It. ally. King Leopold severely criticised King Oscar for publishing his book of verse. remarlking that many subjects in his kingdom could do better. and that 8 king lowered himeslf by encroaching up- on his subjects domain. Perhaps the wise old monarch WAS right.
 Meanwhile the muses continue to be invoked.
