over the decision to have tariff hearings.
Some representative OF the Tariff Com

are counting on his testimony to bolster

understanding among the Republicans
had been to hold no hearings and to con-
fine consideration of the bill in the COM

CROWDER MISSION

Special DespatcI. TO THE NEW YORK iiERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. C.. Jan. T.
The purpose of the United states
Government in sending Major-Gen.
Enoch II. Crowder to Havana was eX-
planned to-day to DR.. de Cespedes,
Cuban Minister, by Acting Secretary
of State Davis. DIR. de Cespedes called
at the State Department for first hand
information and received IT,
The Cuban Minister was told that
Intervention is the last thing the
United States desires and will be put
into effect only as a last resort. He
was informed that the statement is
sued by the White House yesterday
explained the situation fully and told
Cuba. While the United States is
hopeful that the necessity of inter-
vention will be avoided, it is realized
that it may be necessary, and Gen.
Crowder's arrival on the Minnesota
follows the precedent established by
President Roosevelt in intervening in
the island republic.
President Roosevelt sent William II.
Taft on a warship and after looking
into the situation Mr.. Taft reported in
favor Of intervention. The situation was
not materially different in 1906 than it
is to-day The sending OF Gen. Crowder
is for the purpose OF preventing inter-
vention. but will be followed BY inter
vention unless the Cuban situation is
cleared up:
The State Department feels that the
extension of the Cuban moratorium for
thirty days is unfortunate and works
great hardship on Americans who have
had commercial dealings with Cuba. 1t
is described as q method OF protecting
insolvent banks at the expense of those
which are solvent.
The congestion in Havana, however.
is said to be uncalled for. Ships have
been there six months without oppor-
tunity TO unload and goods are piled
upon the wharves with no chance to
ch their destination.
The entire situation is complicated by
the uncertain political situation result
ing from failure to bring about de-
cision as to who was elected President
in November. There is but little time
between now and May 20. when .Presi-
dent Menocol will go out Of Office. In
1905, when intervention occurred. Presi-
dent Palma resigned and the Cuban
Congress refused to fill the vacancy.
Revolution broke out and Intervention
followed.
IT has been suggested before that in
the event Of another Intervention Amor
ican troops might never leave Cuba.

The expenditure of alleged unneces-
sarily large sums of money incident to
the inauguration of President Harding
was the subject of two hours heated
debate in the Senate to-day. Senator
Borah Udaho) led the attack. follow
ing his recent announcement that he
would propose to limit to $4,000 the
actual cost to the Government. Senator
Norris (Neb.) and Senator Fletcher
(Fla-) were the principal aids of Mr..
Borah-
The introduction by Senator Knox of
a resolution to appropriate $4,000 to
pay for erecting the inaugural stand,
printing programmes and other ex-'
penses, brought about the discussion.
Senator Fletcher read an account of the
simplicity of the jefferson inaugural
and urged a return to that policy. Sepa-
tor Knox reminded him Of the expense

party at the Paris peace conference.
Senator Reed (Mo), supporting the
Knox resolution. told the Senate ''the

Deferred Until To-day.

The only immediate result of all this,
which included various contributions 20
the debate by other Senators, was to
defer action on the Knox resolution until
tomorrow. At the same time the Senate
will pass on an amendment to the Knox
resolution, offered by Senator Norris, TO
reduce the appropriation to $4,000
The principal speech in opposition TO
large expenditures was made by Senator
Borah. who insisted that the total cost
of tho inaugural ceremonies would be
s1,000.000 He got this total by adding
in the S500O0 proposed BY the Knox
resolution. $4,000 that Il was said would

By Thomson s McKinnon.)

We have had another day OF moderate
trading. and the action of the market
gives every evidence of a sound fOunda
ton.
Technically, the market seems to be
in an unusually good position. This has
been demonstrated frequently during the
last few weeks by the ease with which
the market recovered from the declines
following aggressive selling.
There have been many such periods,
and in each instance losses were recov-
cred so rapidly as to make real i'm.
preston on the minds of traders and
observers.
Then there are number Of factors that
are gradually developing in favor of the
market: The ease with which the Penn
sylvanla bond issue was hOated. The
progress made in court by the opponents
TO the recent foreclosure of the Denver
& Rio Grande. The resumption of Oper-
atoms in various steel mills and in the
motor industry. All these help-t to ere
ate a better sentiment in trade circles
and are naturally reflected in the stock
market.
In addition to this we have an agree
ment on reparatiOns by Germany, which
will go far toward settling affairs in
Europe and fastening the return Of nor
NAL conditions.
We have before Us q great potential
business, due to the need for vast con-
structiOn Of all kinds in this country,
and we are encouraged daily in our
views that the outlook is promising, and
that the long side of the market is now
the safe one
