:. LONDON. February 26--Armenian
Representatives were heard this fore
,snoon by allied representatives gath
cred here for the near eastern con-
sference. Later, questions affecting
,Armenia and kurdistan were taken
sup with the Turkish delegates.
While it was generally expected the
Representatives of the Turkish ma
stionalist government would agree to
sthe proposals for a solution of the
near eastern question, 1t was predict
ed the Greek answer would be In the
negative. II was stated at the foreign
office, however, that NJ. Kalogero-
poulos, head of the Greek delegation,
would be appointed a member OF the
interallied commission. which will
conduct an investigation of conditions
in Thrace and Smyrna, and that the
fact this inquiry would be made did
not imply that the Greeks would be
compelled to evacuate territories they
occupy.

:, Foreign Minister Sforza of Italy is
credited with the success attending
pthe allies efforts to impress the Turks
as to the necessity of moderating their
demands. He bluntly told them that,
ain view of the proposed investigation,
they must refrain from raising great
Ier difficulties on other points. News
papers here published today a cabled
appeal from citizens of various locali-
ties around Smyrna, complaining of
Turkish nationalist cruelties to ma
tive Christians.

try. He said he hoped to obtain a re-

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 26.-The
past week has contributed very little
new to the discussion of the financial
outlook. 1t still is n waiting season
for general trade, with the business
community disinclined to buy beyond
the harest immediate needs. The price
cuts have had varying results as be-
tween different lines They have
stimulated the textile industry of
New England: they have not in
creased the buying movement in steel.
On the contrary. the latest reports
are that the steel companies are
placing fewer new orders than ever
on their books and that porduction is
going further down hill
The most startling occurrence or
the week has been the break in cot
ton to new low records for the year,
to levels which represent the wiping
out of nearly all the war advance,
bringing prices back to where they
stood in 1915. There is no mistaking
the character of this decline. 1t is
due to selling of the necessitouS sort.
the same that appears on the stock
exchange in times of panic like last
autumn-Sellng that is regardless of
value and impelled by one motive
only, which is the need of raising
cash.
Cotton Liquidation Factor.
There is no question that this liqui-
-ried prices down we'll below cost of
production. as figured out by the gov
'ernment experts. and yet it keeps on
unchecked. Had the cotton growers
recognized the plain facts of their
position three months ago. they would
have Jared much better. AS it was,
they allowed themselves to be buoyed
up by the hope that through federal
aid they could escape the losses of the
readjustment period. which was the
common lot of producers throughout
the country. and the sacrifice eco
nomic law demanded for the abnormal
prosperity of the war years.
The sequel is now being witnessed.
Unable any longer to hold on. cotton
growers have had to let go at prices
which look low beside those of last
November. The attempt to influence
prices by holding cotton back from
market has ended in a costly failure.
How long it will be before this forced
selling is over cannot be predicted,
but this much is certain-no COM
modify can for long remain below
what it costs to be produced and that
in time buying by investors who base
their calculations upon this truth will
restore equilibrium.
Grain Markets Influenced.
The grain markets. which are in much
the same position as cotton. have beer
influenced by the laiter's decline. They
too, have been consistently weak and
for similar reason, namely, the in
ability of the producers to longer hold
on Even in the grain trade it now be-
gins to be seen that an emergency tariff
were it to pass, would do very little
good. The main thing is that American
wheat raisers are forced to compete
with other countries having cheaper
labor and a deprecated currency.
This competition would keep prices
down regardless of tariff carriers or the

TRADING ON CURB
WAS UN|MPORTANT

NEW YORK, February 2e.-Short
session on the curb today was dull.
but there was Il steady undertone.
Commission houses had but few
small orders. and about the only busi-
ness was by the professional element,
which evened accounts over Sunday.
This caused short covering in some
issues, bringing about advances and
an easier tendency in others which
have been strong recently on profit
taking sales. Insiders did little in
the market.
Maracaibo Oil was firm and rose n
fraction. due to covering of short
contracts put out during the past few
days. This covering was at Il loss
because the stock has been holding up
unusually well in the recent unsettled
market. Gufey Gillespie was the cen
ter of a dispute between the traders.
and it was difficult to get accurate
figures on the sales. However, the
stock was less active than heretofore
and moved over Il range of a fraction.
PetroIeums STEADY.
International Petroleum held steady

been a shipbuilding nation, is turn

before. France has turned from the
production of war munitions. the
board asserted. to building ships, and
Italy has likewise laid out a number

group.
