WASHINGTON IS ALREADY LOOKING
 FORWARD TO THE INAUGURATION OF
 PRESIDENT WILSON DURING MARCH

So, with Colonel Harper, the bank CT and social leader, in charge, busi, ness and society will be mixed in a glorious and ecstadc national cock, tail.
 This year the main spectacle may be a "pagant'-a peagant beside which the carnival of New Orleans will be Dicayune affair. Instead of the usual hoi polloi pee.rade, made up Of military and civil organizations and struggling individuals, this part of the show is to be something worth while" anu to have a real meaning for both Spectators and par. ticipants. The history Of the United States is to be the subject and full advantage is to be taken Ol all the opportunities for scenic and educa- tional effects.
 AS this subject is virtually new; having been used on only about 5000 occasions, the originality and ingenu' ity and imagination of the managers have been taxed to the utmost and have evolved such> new scenes as Columbus landing wherever he did, Pocahontas instituting the leap year privileges in this country with Cap tain John Smith as the victim, Wash ington crossing the Delaware in the last ferryboat of the night, the Pil- grims rejoicing on Plymouth Rock and rye, William Penn putting over a good one on Lo, Cornwallis taking the count. Lincoln unchaining the colOred brother. and the repulse Of the insidioUs lobby.
 Janitor Rampant
 Also, there Wal be a symbolic sec. ton. with industry at the spinning wheel and Vulcan at the forge and the ianitor, mayhap, at the furnace. The Forwardlookcrs" will be identi- fled by telescopes, through which htcy will look ahead, tOan era O.! lridity and that glad day when wO- men will cast the ballots and vote less men will look on in envy. The New Freedom will shine resplend- ant from truck and Uncle Sam will sway unsteadily on a float
 Yet another feature will be sam ples Of the nationalities Of which the American Republic is composed these 10 include men and women from every cline and from every previous condition of race and seryi- ;ude.
 Chairman Harper announces that the Court of Honor. including the Presidents reviewing stand at the White House will be deliberately ar ranged and lavishly decorated" and although he does not say so, opinion prevails that Pennsylvania Avenue and Fifteenth Street will be embel. ished with "grandstands" finely fin ishel in Q national wood in the rough. for the comfort and Conyen- fence of such visitors as may care to pay from a dollar 10 a fiyc-spot for Q seat.
 As yet. no predictions have come from the weather bureau as to it's plans for March 3. and all Washing. ton is scared stiff lest it promise rainy day wlsh sunshine and summer On thiTiy-seyen ocCas-

Industrial
Cotton

Trading in cotton was active yes
terday, with prices making a brisk re-
covery from lower opening, but fall
ing back again in the late trading.
October contracts sold off to 2O.54, ad-
vanced to 20.Si and closed at 2O.G0, a
net loss of eight points The more de-
fcrred positions closed 10 to IL points
lower.
Buying orders predominated for a
time, but the advance stimulated SELL
ing for profits on scale in excess Of
the demand in the later trading. The
weekly statement of submarine losses
seemed to inspire more active selling
toward the close.
The weekly report of the Weather
Bureau indicated improved conditions
in the Western belt, but mentioned
many drawbacks east of the river, and
seemed disappointment to some Of
the early sellers.
The early afternoon advance was ac-
companicd bt renewed talk Of low con-
dition figures, but it was most gem
orally attributed to the scarcity of con-
tracts and n renewal OF the buying
movement which has been in progress
since the middle of last week. Exports
for the day were 20,Sl2 bales, making
4.797 ,594 so far this season. Southern
spot markets as officially reported were
unchanged to 62 points higher, gen.
orally 10 TO 20 points above Mondays
quotations. The big advance was at
New Orleans, where sales were re-
ported of A,577 bales, and there were
large sales at several other points also.
