such as this just closed and in view OF
foreign competition. bred of large
crops in the rest of the worlds sur
participation in this trade is hardly
possible at present price levels. The
situation OF affairs would seem. in

past liquidation in the stock market
may find counterpart in natural
products. which seem to have adj

its handspring in the excessive supply

this connection test may perhaps be
made OF the theory advanced by many

approximately final settlement of the
tariff question, for which one offered
solution is the permanent commission
plan. something like repression of the
country's obviously large productive

large and confident anticipation of flu

with the conservatism manifest in SO

benefits Of the readjustments already
in evidence and those to be met with

made in 1911.

WASHINGTON GAS
ONLY ACTIVE STOCK
ON LOCAL MARKET
Other Issues Neglected.
Probability of Examiner for
Local Clearing House.

Nothing of interest transpired on the
Washington Stock Exchange worthy Of
special comment. It was one Of the
dullest days Of the year, in point of
trade and Interest; the attendance OF
brokers was limited, and orders were
greatly restricted.
Washington Gas was the only stock
in which there was even fair share
of activity. LIS shares. selling at ssa,
a slight recession. On the basis OF A.SO
a share. the present dividend Of the
company, the stock is fully worth pres
ent prices - perhaps more, considering
the basis Of value on securities prevail
ing in the District. AS an Investment
it has usually proven profitable. s-..
Other transactions were limited to
Capital Traction, at 12SA. and United
States Trust shares, at u5ss.
The committee appointed at the recent
meeting Of the District Bankers AS
sociation has held one meeting.
There Is every probability that the
task of preparing a plan for the in
stallation Of an examiner for the Dis
trict, under the supervision OF either
the Clearing House Association or the
Bankers Association, will be successful
It is not likely that a successor will
be chosen to fill the vacancy created
by the resignation of Eldridge z. Jor-
dan as president of the United States
Trust Company for some time. Many
names have been mentioned, but their
use is simply a repetition of street

Badqe of Servltude.

Would-be artistocrats in America who are wont to decorate the hats of their coachmen with cockades are probably ignorant of the fact that from a European standpoint the cockade is only used to show that the wearer Is a servant of royalty. Across the water the cockade can be legally worn only by servants of royalty, including naval and military officers, diplomatists, lieu tenants, deputy neutenants and high sheriffs of counties. AS worn by these, the color Is black. The black cockade was introduced in England by the house of Hanover, although previous thereto it had been worn in various colors A scarlet cockade was in vogue during the time of Charles | His son adopted white, the badge of the Jacobites, while orange was the color Of William of Orange. Orange remains the color In the Netherlands Black and white Is the color in Ger. many, black and yellow in Australia, tricolor in France, scarlet in Spain, blue and white in Portugal-that Is before the revolution-and black, red and yellow in Belgium. The word "cockade" comes from the French "co carde," originally applied to the feath. ess of the cock worn by Croatian sol diers serving in the French army.

Chinese VIII Take Part.

Dresden Is planning for an exposi. tiun devoted to the cause of hygiene, sports and their allied interests. Ac. cording to advance information this exposition, which hitherto has not been very much talked about, is likely to surprise by It's perfection of detail and architectural beauty-as might be expected of Dresden.
 That the exposition will be world. wide in it's scope is evinced by the fact that the executive committee has just received plans from the Chinese for the erection of an imposing Chi. nese section It is proposed to erect a large hall for this purpose, and an imposing pagoda will be erected as a demonstratioa of Chinese a7ch.tec' tSural development,
