cuente orador, discutiendo solamente de
politica, de los principles que sustenta,
de los grandes benefcios que Sc de-
rivan del programa de su partido, por
que une persona como el, de .muchisima
experiencia politica, que fuer de prac
tica ha conquistado, puede llevar como
cimientos del auditorio, mejor que min

Evita siempre que haya discnciones

Llegadas las elecciones, hace gran pro
paganda, y usa de la palabra Ell miti-
nes y tribunas, porque es un Verdadero
''patriota'', terminando ell discurso, ca

Jewelry
Prices for Settings Con-
tanning Small Diamonds
Are Aduanced

Local jewelry manufacturer yester-
day announced that slight increases
had been made in the price of their
merchandise containing small dia-
monds. This advance covers all stones
up to one-quarter carat In size and is
the second that has been made within
the last month. The shortage Of dia-
monds is general and becoming more
acute daily, but it is most marked in
small stones. Dealers returning from
foreign markets report that gems un-
der one-quarter carat are almost i'm
possible to obtain in England and Hol-
land and that there Is no limit to the
prices being offered for them by Euro
pean dealers.
Despite the rising tendency of prices
the demand for diamonds continues to
increase. Out town jewellers who
have been unable to buy from road
statesmen sufficient stock to meet the
demands of their customers have been
coming to New York in large numbers
to investigate the situation first hand
Some have succeeded In getting small
stocks of stones by thoroughly cam
vassing the market, but most of them
have ben forced to return home empty
handed.

Tised.

Cotton Mills Call Road
Statesmen in OUing to
He0vy BOOKINGS

All cotton fabrics, except print
cloths. were in active demand yester-
day. Buying of bleached goods seemed
to have increased, and some of the
concerns reported that their outputs
for the next three months had been
covered by orders. For that reason a
number of statesmen have been with
drawn from the road. Numerous visit
ing merchants were in the market
ordering colored goods. Concerns sell
ing fabrics suitable for women's dresses
and mems shirts stated that many Of
the buyers had enoeavored to have
their orders accepted at the lower
prices that prevailed two or three
weeks ago, but none of the mills
showed any disposition to deviate from
current quotations. 1t was asserted
that the belated buyers Will have to
accept relatively distant deliveries for
their tardlness in buying.
Jobbers made liberal purchases of
blankets and outing flannels for fall
delivery. Some producers of coored
fabrics seemed to be disturbed by
rumors of increased labor troubles at
Southern mill centres. In the un-
bleached goods end Of the market sheer
fabrics made of fine combed yarns con-
