UNITY ON PORT PLAN
URGED BY KINGSLEY
State Commerce Chamber Head
Ridicules st. Lawrence
Outlet Scheme.

Darwin r. Kingsley. president of the
Chamber of Commerce OF the State OF
New York, told its members yesterday
that it is time business realized that a
nationwide hostility exists against the
port of New York and that this antag-
onisnl is giving impetus to such move
ments as the canalization of the St.
Lawrence River which he characterized
as an iridescent dream.
Urging the ratification OF the Port
Authoritys plan for the comprehen-
sive development OF New York harbor.
in accordance with resolutions passed by
the chamber yesterday, Mr.. Kingsley
said this plan would solve the port S
economic problems and bring fu;l
utilization of the State Barge Canal.
Just now we are confronted by the st.
Lawrence waterways project. nominally
approved by eighteen States" said Mi.
Kingsley. Its appeal rests on an a.
Turing suggestion. To tell Cleveland,
Chicago and Duluth that they ought to
be and can be great seaports, that they
have natural right to be seaports, Is to
fire the imagination of all their peoples.
AS an organization we are opposed
&c the proposal. In some sections of the
country 1t strengthens almost any
project for New York to oppose 1t, how
ever sound her grounds OF opposition
may be; but that does not change our
duty, just as opposition to the money
vaearies Of 1896 could not be lodged
because New York was the center of
what was and still is called the money
trust.
'In the present condition of this port
New York's critics find substantial
grounds for complaint. That lends color
Of justification to the formation of hos
tile legislative 'blocs' and promotes i'm
practicable projects. In and about this
port there are six great instrumentali-
tics of commerce for the utilization of
which, in the interests of the whole
country, this State and city, and in a
hardly lesser measure the State of New
Jersey. cannot avoid responsibility
"First-The extent and character OF
the waters that lie in a great semi
circle south, west north and even east
OF Ambrose Channel.
"Second-The railroads centering
around the port.
"rhird-The Hudson River.
'Fourth-The Barge Canal.
"Fifth-A great body of trained mer-
chants who know how to sell and buy
abroad.
"Sixth--Financial facilities OF pretty
rearly the first order.
1.-THE Port Authority has completed
the essentials of that plan and the Leg
islatures of the two States will soon be
CALLED on to approve 1t. Even a brief
review of the comprehensive plan sub
lnitted and of the report which accom-
panies it will convince any intelligent
reader that the conclusions reached are
the result of the most exhaustive studies
by the Port Authority itself and its en-
gineers, supplemented by the most ex'
tended conferences with practical mer
actually engaged in industry. in railroad
transportation. in marine operations ard
in the terminal handling of freight with
in the port district.

Wednesday. yesterdays cotton market
fell back for a net loss of 40 points. al
though the final gong cav It above its
lowest level and 29 to S3 points below
it's preceding close. The market in gen
crai seemed to be sharing in the uncer-

the larger operators appeared to be

Reported business troubles, chiefly in
Manchester undoubtedly created much
selling pressure, which came from Liver

who evened up their long commitments.
The rather bad break in Liverpool late

Liverpool futures were about as ex-

the local market opened they were Off

There seemed to be a fair degree of

at the point where resistance was en-
countered at Tuesdays close. From he

in financial circles prevented their COM
