Liquidation Expected.

The following analysis of the New York
market was received yesterday by W. b.
Hibbs & Company from Logan & Bryan:
I'VE still incline to the belief that in
huences covering the industrial section
Of the list, especially the war stocks. are
not encouraging TO take a position on
the long side, and further liquidation will
probably be witnessed. On recessions,
conservative interests are inclined to buy
the good rails, but unsettled labor dis
putes restrict aggressive bull operations

 Madison, a travelling salesman, wrote from Honolulu to his relatives that he was on the English ship Bella Donna When a year ago last September he was stopped off the west coast of South America by a German cruiser. They forced us to go in our small boats and then sank our ship. The day after we ran into a pretty stiff gale and were blown away south. We were brought up on a small island among a group of several There were a few friendly natives there and one white man. We were there ever since until about forty days ago when d small sailing vessel put into there for water, having been blown off her course. We then came here.

A severe snoWstorm has failed to cool the ardor of our men in pursuit, who are close on the heels of the enemy and are annihilatine them or taking prisoners at the tail- ends of Turkish columns.
 We captured at Erzerum the en- tire fortress artillery and a large part of the enemy's field artillery Up to the present we have counted two hundred guns.

PRESIDENT STRIKES EIGHTEEN
 /, MONTHS FROM PRISON TERM
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-President Wilson today struck IS months from the prison term of two years imposed with fine of $2,000 upon Wm. H. Arm strong, Jr., of Philadelphia for his part in the activities of the International Lumber and Development company whose officials were convicted in fed era1 court of conspiracy to defraud.
 Armstrong, who was secretary of the company, was found guilty with Charles McMahon, John R. Marclay Isiaih Miller and Albert C. Stewart, all of them receiving the same sentence Applications for pardons for all the convicted men were denied and the president refused to commute the sen tences of any except Armstrong. The latter was in poor health for some time, and his application was held up to de- termine whether he was incurably ill. Today the White House was advised that he had recovered and it was de- cided that he should not be pardoned.
 However, as evidence was submitted 10 show that Armstrong was not a directing figure in the conspiracy and probably was misled by older men, the president determined to reduce the length of the prison sentence.

A. BRAND WINS IN CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

PARIS, Feb. 1S.-The ministry of Aristide Briand was triumphant in the chamber of deputies today over the extreme socialist and the rad ical socialists, who, after long prepa- ration, sought to overthrow the gov ernment on the question whether 1t was not delegatihg too much author ity to the general staff.
 The proposed attack on the minis try has been common talk in parlia- mentary quarters for month past. It was based more on political rival 1ies than on real difficulties over the conduct of the war. M. Briand met his opponents by declining resolutely to have their interpolation discussed in the chamber and demanded a vote of confidence in the government. This was given, 394 to 169.
 Not all those voting against post ponement of NJ Ferry's resolution may ne considered as opposed to the min istry. Rather, they believe that it is better to discuss questions of policy publicly at all times
