PEACE NOW IN SIGHT
IN WAR TORN MEXICO
Messages From American Govern
ment Agents in Southern Re
public Says Carranza Nav
Resign-Nilla to Leave.

Washington, Nov. l6.-Peace in
Mexico, after weeks of dissention
among the generals of the victorious
constitutionalist army, at last seemed
IN sight today, according to messages
from United States government
agents in the southern republic.
Soon after American Consul Sill
man telegraphed from Mexico CITY
early in the day that hostilities be-
tween the forces of the Aguascalien-
tes convention and those loyal to Gen.
Carranza had ceased, came message
from Leon Canova, special agent of
the American government at AguaS-
calientes, stating that Carranza had
tclcgraphed his intention of resigninw
Secretary Bryan made public Can
ova's message, which was dated 7 n
m. yesterday, but did not comment on
it. Although the dispatch was DELAY
ed in reaching here. no word of a sim
liar nature has come from other
sources in Mexico.
Both May Leave.
Previous messages, however, had
described the efforts of the various
generals to reach compromise and
officials tonight thought it not unlike
y that in the interests of domestic
peace, both Gen. Carranza and Gen.
villa would leave Mexico while the
national government was being reor-
ganized.
1t was suggested in some quarters
that Eulalio Gutierrez, the new pro
vlslonal president. might name Villa
to foreign military mission, per
haps as an observer in the European
war. Carranza, it is believed, might
also leave the country.
:. The White House TODAY made pub
nc message received by President
wilson from Provisional President
Gutierrez setting forth the latter's
ann for reconstruction in Mexico. The
message made no reference to recor-
milton but was interpreted as a bid
for it.

Columbia's Big Fight.

The demand for law enforcement
seems to be gathering weight in all
parts of South Carolina. Anderson
has been making a hard drive to put
the blind tigers out of business there.
Florence people made known where
they stood at great mass meeting
held week or two ago. Grecnvillc
is lust emerging from d fight for a
cleaner city. In Lancaster an agita-
tion against illicit liquor selling is
taking definite shape. Columbia off
clals are openly threatened with tie
recall unless they put stop to the
bold and fragrant violation Of State
and municipal ordinances in that com
munity.
1t will be of special interest to
watch the outcome of the movement
in Columbia. The situation there, ac-
cording to the speakers who discussed
matters with the Columbia citv coun-
eli on Wednesday, is worse than it has
even been before-at least in recent
times. Mr.. T. S. Bryan, of the r. l..
Bryan company, said that he had been
in business in Columbia for 40 years
and that conditions in respect of lio-
uor selling and gambling were worse
at present than at any other time in
MS experience, worse even than when
open saloons hourished." Mr.. BRYAN
further stated that "the desercration
OF the Sabbath was such in Columbia
at this time that some men hardly
cared to be seen on Main street Sun
days."
Several other speakers emphasized
this same point of Sabbath desecra-
ton, and the city council in the reso-
lutions which it adopted at the close
of the meeting instructed the chief of
police 10 enforce rigidly not only the
ordinances against Illicit liquor sell
ing and gambling but all the ordi-
nances. What will be the practical
consequences of such a policy, in the
event 1T is put into operation, remain
to be seen. The sentiment against
blind tigers and gambling dens ap-
pears to be quite formidable, despite
the fact that the mayor of the city
was elected only a few months ago on
an announced policy of regulation as
opposed to eXterminaton of such
places. But will "rigid enforce.
ment' of "all laws and ordinances" be
practicable at the present time in the
Capital City 1t is certainly a uues-
ton.
The Columbia movement has taken
the form, apparently. of straightout
protest against lawlessness and i'm
morality of all forms and descrip-
tions. To succeed it will have to re-
ceive the endorsement of the commun-
ity at large. Itsis big programme
if Columbia has really been as leth-
argic regarding these matters as her
own citizens say. The issue has been
hrcadened to take in much more than
liquor selling. The moral temper of
the people is about to be put to the
test. They will not be only ones who
will be anxious as to the outcome.-

MONEY SHIPPED
INTO NEW BANKS
Millions Transferred Without Hitch
and Things Start For Business.

Washington. Nov. 17.-How $17O,-
100000 in gold and lawful money
was shifted without hitch yester-
day from the banks which are mem
bers of the federal reserve system to
their reserve banks was told in to-
days reports to the federal reserve
board. Between $70,00O,O0O and $780,
100000 is yet to be transferred to
meet present reserve requirements.
The first day of the IL reserve
banks apparently was devoted large
ly to the usual ceremonies accompany
ing the launching of a new organiza-
tion. A few million dollars of paper
was discounted.
There is close to $300,OOO,OOO of
emergency currency and possibly
$10O,0O0,000 clearing house loan GER
tificates outstanding or in the hands
of banks and all secured by paper,
which officials believe in most in
stances would be subject to redscount
by the reserve banks. 1t is pointed
out there is more currency in circu
lation than is needed and treasury
officials probably will use their in
fluence to avoid further issues.

DEPRESSION
FAST DISAPPEARING
Rcdfield Says Winter No Longer Will
Cast Its Shadow of Terror.

Washington, Nov. 17.-All informa-
ton reaching government depar.-
ments here indicates that the deprrs
sion which overlook business entcr-
priscs in the United States when the
European war began is vanishin~.
The hopeful outlook for America
ventures was summarized todav hv
Secretary Redticld in letter to the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States in which he declared:
let tho worst be said and admit
ted that can be said respecting exist
ing business difficulties in America.
our condition still remains not only
relatively bright, but rapidly improv-
ing and IN MANY respects both pros
porous and bright"
One can not but sympathize> with
the misfortunes that have bofal;sSSJS,e.
dustries in all the belgerent coun-
trles,' said Mr.. Redfeld, land thcre-
fore, be so much more grateful that
no like fate threatens our own. No
observer of the large movements of
our commerce today fails to recog-
niZc the great Improvement that has
been made in business conditions
within the last few weeks and which
is still progressing.
The course of exchange has be-
come more normal Clearing house
certificates are being retired. Large
sums OF emergency notes have been
withdrawn and with the opcniny of
the federal reserve system great ad-
dltlonal supplies of oanablc funds
| have become available. There no
longer is serious concern over our fl
nancial future.
Cotton prices have begun to move
and existing arrangements promise
relief from the shadow which so long
has hung over the South.
The cominm winter throws no such
dark shadow before as was feared a
few weeks ago, and the statement is
beginning to be heard here and there
that goods can not be delivered as
promptly as they are wanted because
the factories are too busy.
I'VE may be grateful, therefore. in
sense both calm and confident. not
only that we are far better Off than
our suffering brethren beyond the sea,
but that we are better placed our
selves at home thar we were few
weeks since. We may be glad that the
present is good; thankful that it is
growing better and hopeful for the
coming months"

New Orleans Opens.

New Orleans, Nov. 16.-With the
exchange gayly decorated with palms
and flowers and women crowding the
visitors gallery, the cotton market
opened to normal trading conditions
at 9:05 this morning, after a suspen-
sion of almost three months and a
half.
The first trade between New Or
leans and Liverpool went through to
completion, passing censors' hands
and all in II minutes.
First trades in local options did not
show much change from last weeks
liquidation trading. .January's first
transaction being at 7.50. The market
was somewhat complicated because
trading was carried on in two styles
of contracts, one being the form used
up to the time of the suspension last
July and the other framed to meet
the federal cotton futures act. Old
style March brought 7.61 and the new
style 7.86 on the first call, showing
that the trade was willing to pay a
premium of a quarter Of cent a
pound for the new style.

COTTON EXCHANGE
OPEN FOR BUSINESS
Trading Brisk and Nervous for First
Few Minutes-NO-mal Deal
ings i'm One Hour.

New York, Nov. 16-The New York
cotton exchange reopened for unre-
stricted trading at 10 o'clock this
morning. 1t had been closed since
July 81, when the market went into
convulsions and three firms failed
through the decentralization created
by impending war in Europe.
The floor of the exchange was
thronged with brokers when the gong
sounded today. During the first few
minutes trading was extremely brisk
and somewhat nervous. There was a
little confusion because of unfamiliar
ity with the new style contracts and
the new rules imposed on the market
by the operation of the so-called cot
ton futures law.
Early trading was confined almost
entirely to December cotton sold on
old style contract. The market open
ed at 7.45 and dropped quickly to TAO.
A low level of 7.39 was reported in
the first half hour. The market then
grew steadily and the nervous tone
departed.
At the end of the first half hour
trading appeared to be normal and
the number of brokers on the floor
had dwindled to usual size. Prices
were approximately three cents be-
low what they were when the ex-
change closed on July 81. January
sold at IT'S to 1855, March at 7.S5 to
7.S8, May at $40 to 8.12, and October
at $40 to $50, all on new style con-
tracts.
Wall street brokers, inactive be-
cause of the darkened stock exchange
were interested spectators at the
opening. A sprinkling of other spec
tators, friends and families of cotton
brokers were in the galleries.
A general laugh greeted the read
ing of letter of congratulations
from members of the Liverpool cotton
association. The letter was read
from the rostrum shortly after the
opening gong sounded
