to create broad demand for sup
plies OF all descriptions, traders again
bought heavily To-Day of the better

Tho demand extended to the curb

on other exchanges where the
more necessary commodities are dealt

certain.
The stock market rise, while quite
general and impressive as to certain
issues, was SO variable as TO Indicate
INDIGESTION respecting the speculative
possibilities of former faNorites.
Money rates were comparatively
easy, regardless of last weeks mate

The rise might have been convinc-
ing had 1t been shared IN greater de,
gree by rails, which were backward

was established for New Haven, which
fell to 80. Further adverse features
were presented by the new low rec

ful continuance Of American
relations after the departure Of the
respective embassies at Washington
and Berlin. ir the sense Indicated by
President Wilson i'm his address To
congress, appeared to hc very bright
judging by all the information. some
of the highest authenticity, gathered
by the Associated Press.
II was stated positively i'm high po-
litical circles that the German orders
Tor the conduct of submarine war
could not ana would not be modified;
that in Germany the determination TO
enforce the prohibited zone order was
absolute and final and that the only
security for shipping was in avoid
ance of the prohibited zone.
\ Last Resort.
Germany. so the Associated Press
was Informed, resorted to this meats
ue after the shameful" rejection by
the entente powers Of peace over
lures and only after the fullest de-
termination and as the imperative
WEAPON In defense of its threatened
interests cannot relnquish this weap-
ou-tha only one promising n speedy
end TO the war-reluctart as Germany
was TO lake this step.
The government had hoped that the
United states would see II in this light
and was and Is actulted by no ami
mostly to the United states in its de-
termination.
Kccnly Disappointed.
Germany, therefore, so the high in
formant Of the Associated Press con-
t.nued. is very kecnly disappointed and
prieVed bv the terms OF Mr.. Wilson'S
message but the government cannot
rlter or modify the course upon which
IL has determined.
This official added:
I'VE can only hope and trust that
American ships and American citizens
will avoid the danger zones laid down
in the German memorandum"
