that It does please YOU"
The portion referring to the Monroe
doctrine follows:
MAY | put in another parenthesis.
also on my own account, and correct
an impression that part of your
press seems to have about the attitude
Of the United States government. con-
corning the Investment of your colos-
sal earnings in states of Central
America, that have volcanic tenden-
cies? I some times read that the
United States is entering upon policy
to discourage foreign investments
there That is untrue I think that
some happening there might have dis
couraged them somewhat but I hone
that they cannot be charged to the
United States. +.a ...s
There is policy forming in the
minds Of our government and our
people which is not new. that would
discourage such investments or such
concessions rs would carry with them
the control Of the government Of any
of those states and only such, for so
far as the United States is concerned,
YOU know how heartily we have well
coined your investments in our land
and still welcome them and always
will You NAV be assured that it is
none of the business Of the United
States to put any let or hindrance upon
any legitimate investments of yours
anywhere in the world and they most
heartily welcome your investments in
any part Of America, providing only
YOU do not make them so that you
may possibly take the country with
them. .-. ...-
"The Monroe doctrine meant this
when it was first Formulated:
".That the United States would OBJ
ject to any European governments
taking more land in the new world In
those days the only way a foreign gov
eminent could gain land was literally
to 20 and take it. Now we have more
refined methods of exploitation and
there are other ways to take it. That
is the only protest that the United
States has ever whispered. You will
7 am sure, understand why the United
States prefers that no land in the new
world should he acquired in these new
subtle ways. Would you do us the kind,
ness clearly TO understand that and
possibly to correct the misimpression
that has gone abroad?"
No Debate on Matter
Secretary Bryan transmitted he
cory of Ambassador Pages speech

COurier'S Markets of World
GRAINS FALL OFF
WITH THE DEMAND
FAVORABLE WEATHER FOR THE
WHEAT ALSO FACTOR-CORN
BEGINS TO SAG A LITTLE.

Chicago, March 25.-Wheat eased on
today, Influenced by Indifferent cables
and by more favorable northwest
weather. Relief had come for districts
threatened with drought and there was
promise Of additional moisture. Dwlnd-
ling stocks at Minneapolis, however.
acted to considerable extent as an
offset. Opening prices were unchanged
to k@A lower but after an addition
al decline the market reacted.
Unfounded rumors that cargo OF new
Argentina corn had arrived in New
Orleans led to pronounced weakness
The close was steady, though, at new
decline Of Is @ nc.
In corn the ma jority Of traders seem
ed disposed to press the selling side
Shipping demand here was light The
market opened "a to n q "a off and raj
lied only in 2 half hearted way.
Predictions Of rain for Kansas and
Oklahoma added to the depression and
the close was unchanged to &c of.
Oats sagged with other grain. Trade
was Of scattering character. Provis-
ions show sympathy with the weak
ness Of cereals. First sales were ur-
changed to 21ac lower and an addition
al decline followed.

HOG PRICES ARE
FIRM IN CHICAGO
RECEIPTS FROM WEST ARE NOT
UP TO EXPLORATIONS OF
THE TRADERS.

Chicago, March 25.-Hog prices to-
day showed a tendency to be firm. The
reason was that western receipts were
not considered liberal.
Demand for cattle was weak. Impor-
tation Of increasing quantities of Ar
gentina beef was said to be in meas
ure responsible.
Offerings of sheep and lambs, al
though more numerous than on the
corresponding day week ago, proved
to be Inadequate.

MARKET NOTES

It was the gossip Of the corn trade
after the close that the market showed
signs of being overbougft and that a
further setback was in order. The ac-
ton Of the cash markets was not ex-
actly to the liking Of the bulls, and a
number of them tool, profits yesterday
on the bulge, and are awaiting good
break to get in again, as they figure
that the roc level will be the fighting
ground for several weeks. Traders who
keep close watch on pit operations ex-
pressed the opinion that sales by longs
yesterday went into weak hands, and
unless there was a sharp Improvement
in the shipping demand there might be
a little urgent selling today. Bulls be-
lieved that receipts were to keep small
until farmers finished their spring
work, and were inclined to make light
Of reports of increased country offer
ings, calling attention to the closing of
discounts on cash under the futures,
which to them indicated that local
handlers were anxious to get as much
corn here as possible, as we'll as to
compete with other markets, which
have been outbidding Chicago in the
latter's territory.
TO a number Of wheat traders the
market presented tired appea rance at
the last and they were inclined to look
for a good setback before there would
be much profit made on the buying
side Bears figure that there has been
a fair sized long interest built up by
the recent upturn, which would not
take much decline to start liquidating,
and with the present excellent crop
prospects and slowness in the domes-
tic and foreign demand for the cash
article there was little on which to
base belief for higher prices in the
Immediate future. Should rains fail to
nateralize over the western section of
the belt, however. they believed that a
small upturn might be witnessed, but
would be Of q temporary character, as
tina, section has not a very extensive
acreage. Bulls are looking for a crop
scare sooner or later, and say that the
plant is in poor shape to withstand
dry weather, owing to the exceptional
w favorable conditions which have ex-
listed since the crop was soWn
"The reason why Chicago is not
making good daily sales Of cash corn is
not because she cannot but because the
owners of cash corn are not anxious to
sell" said r. !. Mansfield, with Finley
Darrell &. CO. Most of the holders re-
alize that it is only question of wait
ing a short time, when they can secure
May price for their holdings. The wide
discounts on cash corn all winter have
been cut in half the past ten days. The
opening Of navigation will see heavy
outmovement Of corn, despite talk to
the contrary"
Chicago had the lightest Tuesday run
Of hogs in over year yesterday and
there was no heavy supply anywhere
on the market map. Signs Of scarcity
are accommodating and the season is at
hand when killers will miss the big
