French still Gain.
Southeast of Monastlr the French
ard Serbian troops continue to make
gains in the Cerna river region against
the TeutoniC allies, having captured
several other towns in this region.
ON the TransylVanian front the Aus
tro-German armies at almost all
points continue To make progress
against the Russian and RumHnian
forces or or hold them back without
gains when they attack. The latest
reports from Berlin say the Teutonic
allies have forced the narrow noun
tain passes leading to the WallaChian

Lively infantry and artillery actions
are taking place in the DOnbrudja re-

erations on the western front in

have taken twenty additional German
officers and 1852 men prisoner in the
Ancre sector. making their total of
prisoners since the 18th of November

COTTON, AFTER SELLING
OFF, WENT UP EIGHT POINTS
Indications That Drought in South
west Will Be Relieved

NEW YORK, March 1s.-Business on
the Cotton Exchange this morning was
confined to the local traders. most of whom
seemed to be against the market, and after
an opening range Of advances of l to 3
points in the active issues, the offers in
creased and forced prices back or to be-
low yesterdays closing. February started
at loss of 1 point on small sale. The
tone held comparatively steady, however
The market recovered later in the day,
closing at an advance of 8 points.
The market ruled quiet and steady in
the late forenoon, with business confined
very largely to local interchanges.
The indications for cloudy weather over
the Southwest within the next 4S hours
led to hope that the severe drouth from
which Texas and Oklahoma have been
suffering for nearly two months would
soon be relieved. Austin, Tex, wired that
the drouth was becoming serious over all
of Texas, but that there was still time
to plant and make good crop of cotton

Railroads continue large buyers in the
equipment market. While many of the
orders which are now being placed are
for replacement purposes, yet 1t is safe
70 say that much new equipment Is being
added, especially freight cars. This has
been brought about by the large demands
for cars for the transportation of freight,
both for Europe and domestic purposes.
When the earnings of the different car
riers were showing decreases and many Of
them very large, more than year ago,
the railroads naturally did not order any
new equipment. That, Of course, is his
tory now, but IL is only pointed out to
show that with the betterment of earn
ings roads have begun ordering large
amounts of much-needed equipment. The
fact must not be lost sight of, however,
that the earnings which are now being
reported are compared with very lean pc
RODS of last year.
The total of all roads which have re-
ported earnings thus far for the first
week of March show an increase of nearly
16 per cent. With very few exceptions
every road reporting makes satisfactory
exhibit, which indicates enormous traffic
in virtually every part of the country.
The annual reports of the Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington Railroad Com.
pany and the Baltimore, Chesapeake and
Atlantic Railway Company, both for the
year ending December 81, 1915, were is
sued today. The former showed railway
operating revenue of S21,311,133, COM
pared with $20,357,562 in the previous
year, and net income of $2,147,173,
against S1,229,152 in 1914. The earnings
on S25,13S,925 capital stock were S.54

CHICAGO. March 1s.-There was a
further break in tho wheat market this
morning under heavy selling by commits

at Liverpool and nervousness over proba.
BILE foreign Developments Covering

peared to favor the bear side.

Special cable to Evening LEDGER
PARIS, March 1s-The Chamber has
now to vote on the budget for the next
three months The committee has made
no change in the bill as presented by
the Minister Of Finances. and It provides
for a daily expenditure of SIC, ,OOO,0 900 after
April 1, with an average monthly ex-
pendlture Of $500, 100000.
France votes its budget every three
months, partly for financial reasons, but
chiefly so the legislators are sure of
being in session from one end of the
year to the other.
There has been a big demand for
English bills, which has sent the value
of the pound up again. The recent at
tempt to regulate English exchange by
handling securities through the Bank
of France does not seem to have been
successful, chiefly because London was
not able to absorb a sufficient quantity.
According to the Amsterdam Reporter,
German exchange Is steadily falling, the
principal reason seeming to be that Ber-
lin no longer has gilt-edged securities
to place to their credit with Dutch bank
ers. The Germans are now trying to sell
in Amsterdam Russian, Chinese, Japa-
nese, Scandinavian and Portuguese stocks.
The Bank Of France has increased it's
gold stock from 1900, 100000 francs to
s. .023, 100000. Advances to the state have
Increased 2O0,OOO,OOO to 6,300,000,O00.
