While no official confirmation could
be obtained Of the volume of business

House, it was estimated that the num-
Der Of shares exceeded any previous

are now selling at or above the Off

Industrial stocks were strong on the
New Street curb. Railroad issues were
easier. So many stocks are now at

that the bulk Of the days business is
conducted through the committee of
the Clearing House, a secret society
whose existence is no longer justi-

To Press Subscribers

1t had always been the rule Of
the publishers to require cash in
advance on all subscriptions and
to stop subscriptions at expiration
of time, but for several months a
subscription credit plan has been
tried out. This has proven so un-
satisfactory that the cash in ad-
vance system will be adhered to
and all subscriptions discontinued

Philadelphia, Nov 17.--Presiden

rnal opening of the Panama cana

nouncement of which has been eager
ly anticipated, especially by the for

Americas supreme constructive ant
exposltionary triumphs, were given il
detail here today by Lieutenant Com
mander Needham L. Jones, naval aide
TO the president.
The itinerary and plans were con.
firmed by the president recently
They are comprehensive inasmuch as
they include both the opening of the
canal and the exposition. Twenty
seven foreign battleships and seven
teen United States vessels will par
ticipate. All of the foreign officers
will meet President Wilson in Wash
ington.
In outlining the plans the president
aide said:
"The twenty-seven foreign ships will
arrive in Hampton Roads between
Feb. 10 and Is and will there join
the United States fleet of seventeen
vessels. The officials will then be
brought to Washington and on Feb
ruary 20 will be taken to the White
House to meet the president. They
will be present when he presses the
button that opens the exposition.
'0n February %, Washington;
birthday, the president will go to
Hampton Roads to review the ships as
they sail for the eastern terminal. On
March 5, after having signed the last
bill passed by Congress, the presi-
dent will return to Hampton Roads to
join the U. S. S. New York, and will
sail for Colon. The New York is the
latest and biggest battleship and car
easily steam to San Francisco, 5000
miles, at fifteen knots, without re.
plenishing its coal or fuel oil.
'The New York will be conveyed by
its sister ship, the Texas.
"The two vessels will arrive at
Colon March 10 and the president will
be transferred to the Oregon to &c
through the canal. On the Oregon
will be the president, the secretary OF
the navy, Admiral Clark, who COM
manded the Oregon on its trip around
the Horn, and Admiral Dewey, the
hero of Manila bay.

opening of the canal will be held with
