THE COFFEE MARKET
Price Changes Small and Demand
10 Limited.

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Most of the
steam seems to have gone out of the
bull side of the coffee market for the
time being, and while price changes
today were comparatively small. there
was very limited demand.
The political situation abroad. which
a few days ago seemed to give prom
Use of peace in Europe, is now
thought to point to a prolonged war.
and this in itself has been a distinct
disappointment to the bulls.
Furthermore, reports from Wash
ington recently have indicated that
there is likely to be strong opposition
to any movement to place an import
duty on coffee. This left the freight
situation about the only real feature,
and reports this morning were to the
effect that more tonnage is being de-
voted to the Brazilian trade and that
shippers are now able to give steamer
names in a number of instances.
The spot market here has i'm
proved somewhat. but trading Is not
as brisk as anticipated, md, on the
whole. the whole market seems to be
waiting for some further incentive
before again assuming an aggressive
stand on the buying side.
The commercial Brazilian cables
reported spot prices in both Rio and
Santos unchanged. while Santos fu-
lures were IS reis lower. Receipts
were smaller. amounting at the two
ports to $4,000 bags, compared with
6l 900 a year ago.

THE COTTON MARKET
curtaiIment of Commitments Makes
More Orderly Trading Likely.

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-The market
was a narrow affair today. quieter than
for a long time. IT is said that the
curtailing OF commitments has been in
progress for several weeks go that a
more orderly market is to be antiel-
pated for the near future.
News was uncovered TO start prices
moving sharply IN either direction this
morning. The political advices were
received as any mans opinion and con-
servstives preferred 10 await develop
ments.
Week end statistics did not bring
any buying of moment into the
market as the small decrease
in the visible supply as against
the fair gain last year had been anticl-
pated. The weekly Fall river advices
were rather discouraging to those en-
phasizing the chances OF a continued
cotton consumption In this country. yet
very few in the trade are willing to go
on record as predicting a sustained
turn for the worse In the country's
huge cotton manufacturing trade. Some
slackening. however. is inevitable at
periods.

a little easier. A moderate demand
was noted for refined sugar and re-
fners reported more or less delay in

NEW YORK, Jan. 13-The outstand-
ing feature in today's short session of
the stock market was the utter alb
ser1ce Of public interest and the al
most complete stagnation. Outsiders
are determined to stand aloof until
there is some clearer conception of
the peace situation.
At first blush, the reply of the en-
tente powers seemed to close the door
to peace effectually but there is gradu-
ally dawning on the consciousness of
Wall Street at least that the very fact
that the allies consented to name their
terms in the most general way is a
step in the right direction toward a
discussion of the common ground on
which the belligerents may conceiv-
ably meet.
But nobody, of course, expects to
see hostilities brought to a close in
the near future and possibly not be-
fore another year. Meanwhile there
is q turning away from the war stocks
in some measure and the so-called
peace stocks are receiving more at
tention in the way of brokerage cir
cularising and so on.
In the first hour of trading the
turnover was upwarC of 10000 shares
against better than 3D0, 900 in yes
terday's session which was accounted
dull enough. Price movements were
narrow in the extreme and failed to
indicate any definite trend whatever.
There was q sharp break in the
shares of the q. S. Rubber Company,
due to the announcement of the new
financing. The common stock sold
down more than 8 points.
General motors new common was a
strong feature relatively, advancing
points or thereabouts. U. S. Steel

mainder OF the industrial list aid the
railroad as well or rather that portion
in which there were any sales. The
rails were even more neglected than
the others Steel opened q OF at

as 111S. Bethlehem Steel sold down
Is points to 40. The copper group
was firm.
There was some lazy backing and
filling in the late trading. but price
changes with few exceptions were un-
important. United States Rubber
common yielded a further point, then
rallied to some extent Steel ruled
closely around Ill to 111h. The
railroads continued in practical
eclipse. Cotton opened steady, but
lost subsequently Is to IL points. The
grain markets quiet. Wheat, corn,
and oats were arm.
Interest in London centered in the
war loan. which promises very well
in the initial rush to subscribe. Con-
soils showed light improvement 1t Is
stated that $5o. 200 more gold may
be looked for on this side before the
close of the current month.
In the foreign exchange market
rates on Berlin and Vienna were easi-
er, the break in the latter rather
sharp. There was also further weak
ness in italian lire. Sterling and

RANCH HAS PRIVATE ARMY
carranza Gives Permission to De-

CIUDAD JUAREZ. Chihuahua, Mex,
Jan. B.-For the protection of the two
million acre American owned Babicora
ranch permission to maintain a private
'feudal" army has been granted by de
facto government officials. Two hun
dred men are armed today to defend
the properties against the bandit
forays.
In the month the private army has
been in existence they have engaged
marauding bands three times and killed
or captured and turned over to Car

Col Rosario Garcia and two followers
bearing messages to Villa were bagged
by the Babicora army and executed

MILK FLOWS IN STREET

. In the matter OF flowing with milk,

o'clock this morning.
At that hour forty gallons of lac
teal fluid flowed over the surface of
the asphalt, down the cutters and into
the sewers at Eleventh and c streets.
The presence of the milk in the street
was due to the fact that four ten
gallon cans fell from a truck belong
ing to Miss Grace Thompson, pro-
prietor of the Thompson diary, at

The driver of the truck said the
chain fell OF just as he started the

WOULD STRENGTHEN
COLORADO DRY LAW
Prohibition Leaders to Seek
Ban on Importation of
Liquor Into State.

DENVER, Col. Jan. 13.-Prohibi-
tion leaders in Colorado plan to in
troduce in the legislature at an early
date a sweeping amendment to the
present dry" statute, which Will
make this State virtually bone dry
within six months. The amendment
will prohibit importation of intoxi-
cants into Colorado, thus cutting on
at one blow the large amount of
liquor business now being handled
through express and motor transpor-
tation companies.
Under the present law unlimited
Quantities of intoxicants may be i'm
ported into the State 'for personal
USE" The transportation companies
handle the liquor shipments as they
would any other business.
Fight In other States
This will be stopped in accordance
with the United States Supreme
Courts ruling on the webb-Kenyon
law, as soon as legislation can be
adopted.
In New Mexico, Wyoming, and
Utah efforts also are under way to
force the passage of a prohibition
amendment in the respective State
legislatures. Governor Debaca, Of
New Mexico. in his inaugural address
to the State legislature Wednesday,
strongly urged the enactment of a
dry" statute.
Liquor Interests Plan Fight.
AS Cheyenne and other Wyoming
towns have been getting the bulk of
Colorado's liquor orders, the liquor
interests plan a stin fight against
the prohibition amendment now be-
ing prepared for introduction at this
session of the Wyoming legislature,
but the antisaloon forces are conf
dent that a prohibition law will be
passed by both houses by an over
majority.
Utah is expected to fall in line this
year also, making the entire Rocky
region as dry" as when 1t
was part of the great American
desert. .
