SPECIAL MEETING
ROAD COMMITTEE

At four o'clock this :: afternoon a
special meeting of the board commit
tee of the Chamber of Commerce Will
be held in the Chamber of Commerce
when the route of the proposed road
will be definately decided upon. At
the meeting Tuesday a slight change
in the proposed route was offered,
which appears to be satisfactory to
all concerned, and to be even easier
to build than the route suggested by
Captain J. L. Jayne.
Under the new plan, the road leaves
the present road at the Country Club
main entrance, and runs diagonally
across the back coutry to the bridge,
thus saving the time and construction
of the peresent elbow at the Halfway
House.
Other advantages of the road, it is
pointed out, are that it saves much
difficult construction work over the
low meshy places along Bayou
Grande, and offers an almost straight
drive between the aeronautic sta
ton and the Little Bayou.

Ethel Clayton in "The Woman Be
meath -

The attraction at the Isis theatre
on Saturday will be 1.-THE Woman
Beneath" the newest World-Picture
Brady-Made in which Ethel Clayton,
the popular beauty, is the star. This
enhancing story of an odd phase of
domestic life, was penned by Willard
Mack, who has written some of the
most gripping successes filmed by
World-Pictures. This newest product
of Mr.. Mack's pen gives Miss Clayton
one of the very best roles she has ever
had. She appears as the New York
society wife of a wealthy Western
mine owner who has married him for
his money. When she tells her hus-
band this he decides to make her
leave him and he determines that the
best way to do this is by making it
appear that he has lost all his money.
Bpt when his scheme is successful, it
works most remarkable change in
his wife-a change so very astonish-
ing that the husband cannot believe
it. "The Woman Beneath" is an as
tonishing play and thoroughly de-
lightful attraction. To see it is to see
a real treat.

DAILY COTTON LETTER.

New Orleans, La, Jan. 2-What
keeps support in suspense and con-
stitutes the main basis of bearish ex-
psctation is the idea that aggregated
submarine warfare will not only rem
der our political situation more crit
ical but restrict expectation still fur
ther, and that holders may weaken
going on the season of initial planting
preparations. The s-Picayune
contains an advertisement Of 100 lead
ing concerns in the south giving in de-
tail thebullish merits Of cotton and
the reasons why holders should stick
out for their right. This may mean
holders now have q full backing Of
leading financial interests in the
south. Moreover, we must guard
against being mislead by supply sta
tistics. Probably largo portion Of
the supply in the south is locked on
peace engagements. Smaller specu-
lation holdings have been largely
hedged with futures during the re-
cent decline, therefore the proportion
Of free holdings might be quite small.
Bull technical conditions, market well
liquidated and some speculatives short
interests, are all in favor q the mar

RESERVE BANK
OF ST. LOUIS
Report on Conditions in District No. 8
Federal Reserve Bank at st.
Louis. - !,

St. Louis, Jan. 2-Last, month il
was reported that business was ex-
tremely active in District No. 8. Dur
ing December, this activity was even
greater. It was apparent in general
manufacturing and jobbing, wholesale
and retail business, and in practically
all lines.
Both wholesale and retail stores re-
port record breaking Christmas bus
mess, some of them advising that it
will be the largest in their history.
This is especially true of the whole
sale drygoods houses and the big de-
partment stores. Jewellers, both
wholesale and retail, are also having
an extremely large business. One Of
the largest hardware houses in this
district reports that it has never had
a larger business than this month.
Prices, continue very high, but a
number Of interests in this district
have either increased wages or given
Christmas bonuses to their employees,
so that the high prices have not yet
affected the demand An active de-
mand still continues for both luxur-
les and necessities. However, per-
haps due to the lessons in economy
learned last year, the buying, while
heavy, still is not unwholesonhe, since
the inclination Of everyone seems to
be not to spend more than he has,
though some are fast living up to the
extent of their incomes.
Manufacturing concerns are work.
ing to capacity, with large orders
ahead. Many industries are feeling
the effects Of the high prices Of raw
material, and some are experiencing
difficulty in obtaining q sufficient sup
ply at any price Manufacturers Of
shoes are doing an extremely large
business, but are refusing to take or
ders at present prices for delivery la
ter than thirty days, owing to the
unusual conditions to the leather mar
ket. Further advances in footwear
seem unavoidable.
The shortage Of cars still continues,
and while the condition is slightly inn
proving, yet many Of the manufact-
iurers are hampered in making dsliv-
cries after goods are sold, by reason
of their inability to secure proper
transportation facilities.

From reports received from the
principal cities in this district, it ap.
pears that building operations are
quite active for this season Of the
year. While there has been slight
decrease in the number Of permits H.
sued and the valuation since last
month, yet in comparison with this
time last year, an increase in the op-
erations is noted.

Der, 1916, show substantial gains over
the corresponding month last year.
postal receipts in Little. Rock SHOW Z

The clearings throughout the dis
trict show decided increase. For

percentagees Of increase over the cor
responding week in 1915, were % fol-
lows: Memphis, AIT per cent; St.
Louis, 40.4 per cent: Louisville % per
cent, and Little Rock, 1877 per cent.
The deposits in all the banks in this
district continue at a high level, and
money is easy. The rates for money
are about the same as reported last
month. The prevailing rate to cus.

to 4 IL per cent, and in other sc.
tions Of the district il 10 sosnswhat
