No knowledge of New Personnel

Paris June 25:--The treaty of peace
will be Signed either Friday or Sat
urday, it is believed. Although the day
has not been definitely fixed it has
been decided that the hour for the
ceremony will be at o'clock pm.
The peace conference secretariat is
still without knowledge of the per-
sonnel of the new German peace dele
gates, and does not know when they
will arrive in Versailles This lack of
advice from the Germans as to the
new plenipotentaries has caused un-
easiness in conference circles, and
plans for the signing Of the treaty are
in a state. Of suspense.
Herr Haniel Won Haimhausen, the
acting German representative at Yer
sailles, apparently is also without in
formation.

BULGE IN CORN WAS
 CAUSED BY RECORD
 PROVISIONS PRICES
Staple Went Up 1 1-2c to 7-Sc Net Higher, While Oats Followed With a
 Gain of 5-8c to 1c
By Assoe,afsd Pres.


 Chicago. April 14-Record breaking high prices for provisions, together with wet weather that retarded the crop move ment brought about a decided bulge to- day in the corn market. Corn closed strong at 119q27sc net advance, with May $1 601sQl1. GOA, and July $L53asq1. .5S1R. Oats gained 1sdasc to 1c. In provisions there was & rise of 57c to s2.S0
 Is Activity as well as higher prices char acterized the corn market and short cov- ering toward the last forced more rapid upturn than any which had preceded. It was at this time that the soaring of the provisions values attracted special notice as n bullSh influence on corn. Earlier the wet weather was the chief strength ening factor, emphasized by the circum- stance that today's receipts here were not so liberal as had been expected. cable message from a Chicago trade authority that this fall Europe would be threat ened with a deluge instead of a dearth of supplies was more than offset by an nouncement that six additional vessels had been assigned today to transport foodstuffs to Europe from the United States.
 Delays to seeding lifted oats. Urgent export demand was said to ac- count for the big jumps in provisions The greatest pressure was for May de- 1 livery of pork and lard.

New Orleans Cotton By Associated Pesi

New Orleans, April 14.-A firm un- dertone was held by cotton today from the opening to the close. with the highest prices recorded in the last few minutes of trading. favorable con struction of political news, extremely good accounts from the cotton goods markets of this country. the unex- pected rise of 50 points in spot quota tions and the disappointment of shorts over the failure of the census bureau to put out it's March figures on Ameri- can consumption, according to sched- ule, were the main buying features Last prices for the day showed net gains of 54 to 56 points.
 The opening was higher, shorts being buyers of covers because of the fail ure of the consumption figures to ap- pear at o'clock.
 Shortly afterwards it was announced that the report would be issued to- morrow, but although expectations concerning the figures were as bear ish as ever, no selling was stimulated. The advance was widened gradually but steadily throughout the session un- til May traded at 2559 and October at 2150. At these levels prices were 61 to 69 points over Saturdays close.
 The rise in spots was unexpected. It carried middling up to 26T5. The interior reported rather freer offerings and also sent in favorable weather and crop accounts but without affecting values.

NEW VICTORY LGAl
 PUTS SPEP INTO oIOCK
 EXCHANGE TRADING
The Small Volume of the Project and the Attractive Interest Rate Meets
 With Favor
Bv Associated PreSa

New York, April 14.-Speculative in terest in the stock market today was visibly stimulated by the publication Of the official details of the coming vic tory loan, the smaller volume of that project and the attractive interest rate meeting with general approval
 There were intervals or nesitancy, due mainly to realizing for profits prompted by uncertainty respecting the trend of the peace conference but ths rise was fully sustained, moderate re. actions being offset by additional gains in the several groups of specialties.
 Rails and coppers were the only con- spicuous exceptions, falling to share more than nominally in the sweeping and substantial movement.
 Heaviness of St. Paul issues acted as a drag on the entire transportation di- vision.
 Fully half the days trading centered around three groups-motors, oils and shippings, while a goodly percent age of the other dealings represented equipments and food and fertilizer shares.
 Pronounced features of strength in- cluded Atlantic Gulf at a net advance of 7H points; American International which recovered almost half of last weeks setback on it's rally of 5ss points; general motors TX and Asso- ciated dry goods almost six points, the latter reacting.
 Other clements of strength embraced Sinclair Oil the most active issue at gain of points; American Sugar, 5; American Cotton Oil, 3 E and sundry specialties, to points.
 U S. Steel made an extreme advance of IS to 99A, easing slightly with kindred issues in the further profit taking at the close. Sales amounted to 100000 shares.
 Liberty bonds, excepting 31a S strengthened at first but reacted slightly later Other domestics were steady and Internationals firm. Total sales (par value) aggregated $17,S7s,- oC0

AFTER AN IRREGULAR START, COTTON GOES.
 TOASHARP ADVANCE
Close Was Steady, 20 to 60 Points Up on New Style and IS to 75 Points
 on Old

New York, April A.-Rather irregular fluctuations were followed by a. sharp advance in the cotton market today, May selling at 26. roc and october at 23.29c, and. with new style months generally show ing net gains of 25 to 65 points. The close was very steady at practically the best levels of the day, or 20 to 50 points net higher on the new style and IS to 75 points higher on the old style de- liveries.
 The market opened steady at un- changed prices to an advance Of Is points on new style months and sold about 10 to S7 points net higher right after the call on relatively firm cables and re- ports of a rapidly improving goods trade, both at home and abroad.
 The advance was checked around e6.5Sc for May and 23.05c for October by reali1- ing, and May was relatively easy on a late forenoon reaction which carried prices off to 26.35c, or 10 points lower. Later deliveries were sustained by an uEfavorable western belt forecast and commission house buying, but lost most of the early advance. Business tapered off sharply on this reaction and the market later showed renewed strength on continued favorable reports as to the prospects for an early conclusion Of
 peace, foreign and domestic trade buy ing and covering by recent sellers. The strength or the Stock HldThet pTUU- ably accounted for some of the Wall street buying, but the bullish factor most discussed was the increased activity of the goods market as reflected in reports from New England mill centers and also in cable dispatches from Manchester. The latter reported a continued active demand for cloths from India and China and several minor outlets. Trade interests were active buyers of July late in the day against sales of October and De- cember. Exports today 770l bales, mak- ing 3.S7.6o5 so far this season.
