Sweden Eases Gold Demand

TALK ON TARIFF PLANS
By FRANCIS W. HIRST
Editor OF The Economist, London
SnecinI CnbIe 70 the EVcniNp Lcdoer

LONDON. Feb. ga heavy snow Is
suspendinR communication with the prov.
inces and has reduced stock exchange
activity.
Gold economies are taking a fresh turn
now that the Swedish Parliament has re-
lieved the Swedish Riksbank of the neces-
sity of accepting and coming gold rms
action has been misinterpreted here. III IS
partly to defend Sweden from German
gold and to force both Germany and the
Allies to exchange goods for goods. other
wise Scandinavia fears n famine of food
and raw materials. Thus gold may lose
its sovereign power as a remedy for de-
preciating currency.
| do not interpret Premier Asquith's
speech as n refusal to consider any peace
terms The repetition of the Guildhall
formula must be read in the light of the
Dublin utterance quoted by c, =. Trevel-
yam and which Mr.. Asquith has explicitly
recognized as still valid and operative.
Peace, of course, Is unattainable till the
German Government relinquishes its an
nexationst ambitions, but our Parlia-
mentary discussion of peace terms does
not make negotiations more difficult.
The after-war tariff problem grows in
interest. The firm free trade attitude of
30 out of 33 directors of the Manchester
Chamber of Commerce gives pause to
the protectionist agitation Algernon
Firth, the Premier's cousin, however,
moves protectionist resolution next week
at the annual meeting of the chambers,
but most of the British chambers of COM
merce have been protectionist for 40
years They were supporters of Joseph
Chamberlain from the moment of his con-
version to protectionism, and afford no
index to public opinion.
Portugal's requistionIng of interned
German ships suggests an example which
might be followed by Italy and others,
Portugals trade with the Portuguese
colonies is doubtless suffering from a
shortage of ships.

NEW YORK Feb 26-The opening
, tone on the Cotton Exchange this morning
was comparatively steady, with March
up points, June points higher and
other months 8 to 5 points lower The
3 trading was light in all options, with the
exception of May, which dropped 4 points
on the call because OF heavy selling by
y New Orleans interests. The buying was
scattered and after the call the entire
market declined 3 to points in sympathy
with the weakness in New Orleans and
on the continued pressure from the South.
Following the early weakness active
covering developed around ll;45 for July
and prices Tegained virtually all of the
early loss sustained before IL o'clock

RAILROADS SEEK EQUIPMENT
Inquiries Are Out for $4,000 Freight
Cars, Despite High Prices

Railroads all over the country have
within the past week come into the market
for car equipment with greater force,
and it is said that today there are in
quirles for $4,000 freight cars. The high
prices for steel and the inability of the
car manufacturers to make early deliver
les have caused the abandonment of a
number of other inquiries.
The Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal is in
the market for 500 gondola cars, and the
Great Northern for 500 refrigerator cars
and 25 oiltank cars. The Chicago, Mil
