Tri-Weekly Market Reports
j COTTON
, J
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—The buying
movement which developed in the
cotton market last week was in evi
dence again during today’s early
trading. It was promoted by the
continued strength of Liverpool and
the increased spot business reported
there which private cables attributed
partly to export demand. Locally
the market opened firm at an ad
vance of 17 to 32 points, with the
more active position soon selling 23
t o 32 points net higher. There was
much realizing at the advance, but
it was absorbed by further covering
and fresh buying, with May holding
up to about 34.63 or 30 points above
Saturday’s closing.
The buying tapered off after the
first half hour and there were reac
tions of 10 or 15 points from the best
under realizing, with May selling off
from 34.65 to 34.50. Except for
profit taking, hoever, little selling
pressure was reported and the mar
ket was quiet but steady around
midday with old crop month show
ing net advances of 23 to 28 points
and with May ruling around 24.57.
Late cables from Liverpool reported
a continued demand for spot cotton
from the continent.
Trading did not become active but
the market showed continued firm
ness during the middle of the after
noon on bullish southern spot ad
vices, covering and trade buying.
May advanced to 34.97 with the gen
eral market showing net gains of
about 42 to 66 points around 2
o’clock.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW -ORLEANS, Feb. 4. Ad
vance of 20 to 30 points were made
by cotton in the first half-hour of
trading today, mainly because of the
- sudden return to the belt of unt’alvor
able weather. A sale here of 1,800
bales of spots at a high basis also
caused buying. Bullish sentiment
was increased by reports of a larger
business in print cloths at Fall River.
March advanced to 34.36, and October
to 28.06.
Covering of the short interest be
came heavy and new buying in
creased on further claims of a con
tinued good spot demand. The inte
rior bought, apparently on the out
look for wet weather in the eastern
belt and freezing weather for a good
part of the western oelt, with tem
peratures far under freezing in many
more northern sections. Late in the
morning prices were 34 to 59 points
higher than-the close of last week.
March traded up to 31.67 and Octo
ber up t0*28.20.
The old crop months became very
strong on the improvement in the
spot demand ami on reports export
ers here had orders which they were
unable to fill because of small of
ferings. New Orleans exported 20.-
449 bales during the day. In the
trading up to 1:30 o’clock March
was lifted to 34.71 and October to
28.24, where the list stood 38 to 66
points over the close of last "week.
New crops made much smaller gains
i than the old.

BY GEORGE (’. SCHNACKLE
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 1924.)
CHICAGO (Monday), Feb 4.
Wheat had a strong tone today and
July and September sold at new
high levels on the crop. Trade was
not so active because of slow wire
service from the northwestern area
due to sleet storms.
Sentiment was bullish. Strength
in Liverpopl was a bull factor. The
reduction in the visible supply was
less than expected. 1,120,000 bushels.
Cash wheat premiums were off 1 cent
with number two hard offered freely
at May price.
Wheat closed 5-8 to 1 1-8 cents
higher. May. $1.12 3-8@1.12 1-2;
July, sl.ll 1-2@1.11 5-8; September,
sl.ll 3-8.
Corn started lower under commis
sion house and local selling. The of
ferings were xvell absorbed and later
the market felt the effect of short
covering. The early pressure was
based on the heavy receipts. Cash
corn discounts widened out another
cent under the futures. Visible sup
ply increased 420,000 bushels.
May oats were inclined to drag un
der realizing sales. Northwest sold
oats early. Shipping demand was
light.
Oats were unchanged to 1-4 cents
higher. May, 49 l-4c; July, 47 l-2c;
September, 43 3-4e.
Provisions were firmer with hogs.
Trade was of moderate volume.
Lard closed unchanged to 5 cents
higher and ribs 7 1-2 to 15 cents
higher.

END COMES SUNDRY
AFTER VALIANT FIGHT;
ALL NATION MOURNS
(Con(iniied from I’uge I)
open, the faithful negro servant
I hovered. On the bed, sitting beside
her husband, sustained with all the
fortitude and composure of a woman
facing a crisis, was Mrs. Wilson,
holding between her hands tlie wan.
withered right hand that had proved
the pen mightier than the .sword.
: Near the foot of the bed was his
eldest daughter Margaret, resigned
to the inevitable. Close by, tears
welling frim his eyes and coursing
down his cheeks, was Dr. Grayson,
taking the measure of the fluttering
pulses, weaker and fainter with
each effort.
Death advanced and beckoned for
the last time.
Woodrow Wilson's soul had drift
ed out On the great dark tide that
runs around the world.
Prayers for Beloved Chief
Out. through a city stilled in a
Sabbath morning's reverential calm,
his name was being spoken from a
hundred pulpits. Tn the Central
Presbyterian church, where he
faithfully went, to worship while
the flesh was able, a choked-up con
gregation had sung, “The Son of
God Goes Forth to War,’’ “How
Firm a Foundation" and “Onward
Christian Soldiers,” favorite hymns,
in which he loved to lift his voice in
a happier, better day. Over a great
land that had acclaimed him chief,
and in lands,across the seas where
he had been hailed as a god of
peace, prayers were rising for the
repose of his soul.
In the streets before the square
brick house where he had lived with
his memories, his hopes and his re
grets, was another scene. There
was a gathering of people there. It
was as a crusading throng come to a
mecca in pilgrimage to attest their
faith in the ideals he personified.
It was a group of men and wom
en kneeling on the pavement in si
lent prayer. Small prayer slips
bearing the inscription in the chilly
wind which swirled up the debris
and litter left there by the watchers
engaged in the solemnity of the
death watch that the world might
know.
“Mr. Wilson is attaining the peace
that passeth all understanding,” said
the leader, while the throng sank to
its knees and remained in silence
for a minute. Then a sickly sun
broke through a cloud bank. A lit
tle native warbler, a pilgrim, ven
turing north in search of early sun
and spring, stopped for a moment
and from his twig aloft uttered a
happy note.
Almost at that moment Mr. Wil
son was passing on.
Immediately the great govern
ment over which he presided for
eight years began taking steps to
give expression of its respect. Pres
ident Coolidge heard the word of
Mr. Wilson’s death while in. church
with Mrs. Coolidge. Immediately at
the conclusion of the service ho
drove to the Wilson home ainj left
'cards. Later he sent his secretary
to offer any aid whatever.
Official Mourning Period
Flags on government buildings
and government property every
where were lowered to half mast
The news went to army posts every
where and to ships at sea. A thirty
day period of official mourning was
ordered as the government had done
for Colonel Roosevelt and other for
mer presidents. Congress arranged
to adjoisrn Monday, executive de
partments were ordered closed on
the day of the funeral, social activi
ties at the White House coming
within the period of mourning were
ordered abandoned.
Official tfclc*.»<nns were dispatch
ed to the embassies and legations
abroad for the information of for
eign governments. One cablegram
going to far-off Siam carried the
news to Mr. Wilson’s daughter, Mrs
Francis Bowes Sayre. She is with
'her husband at. Bangkok, where he
is adviser to the Siamese govern
ment. Another telegram was dis
patched to Mr. Wilson’s other daugh
ter, Mrs. William G. McAdoo, who.
with her husband and children, is
speeding io Washington, on a train
from California.
Mr. YVilson’s last words of sus
tained meaning were spoken Friday, j
They were: “I am ready.”
Realizing fully that he could not '
hope to rally from the onslaught |
of the digestive disorder which i
-sapped his strength, weakened his I
heart and accentuated the condition 1
which followed his first stroke of
paralysis, he -watched for a moment
when all except Dr. Grayson were
out of his bed chamber. Drawing
his friend and physician close, be
with some difficulty of
articulation:
“The old machine has broken >
down. You’ve done your best for
me. But its better that I should go
than to live on a helpless invalid.
Tel! Mrs. Wilson 1 want her. I'm
ready.”
His Last Wishes
All this was -without a show of
emotion but in his usual measured
habit of speaking. Mrs. Wilson came
at the physician’s call and spoke
for several moments with her hus
band during which he communicat
ed to her some last wishes.
From that time on Mr. Wilson
lived out his fast fleeting life with
the full knowledge that lie was on
the threshold of the great beyond.
If, in his dying moments, he har
bored any feeling at all for the men
in public life who presented the ful
fillment of the ideals for which he
repeatedly had said he would have
been glad to give his life, he never
gave any indication of them.

LONE SURRENDER IN WILSON
BATTLE FOR IDEALS IS DEATH,
DAVID LAWRENCE COMMENTS
BV DAVID LAWRENCE
(Lci.sed Wire Saivit-e to The Journal.)
(C inyiinlit, 1921.1
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—The
hour of surrender —a word which in
his days of power he never recog
nized —has come to Woodrow Wil
son.
And with it there wells up simul
taneously in the hearts of the people
everywhere a sadness born of admi
ration for the stoicism of a states
man who fought, till the last for the
ideals in which he believed.
“1 would rather fail,” he used to
sax-, “in a cause that I know some
day will triumph than to win a
cause that 1 know some day will
fail.”
It was his philosophy of battle.
To posterity he looked always for
vindication. He never understood
the word “compromise.” Hven in
his breakdown after the famous
western trip, when it seemed as if
the Versailles covenant of the
League of Nations was beaten in
the senate, he scorned defeat.
Senator Hitchcock, Democratic
chairman of the foreign relations
committee, who was in charge of
the fight for the League of Nations
treaty, asked for an engagement,
“I suppose he is coming to talk
compromise," commented Mr. Wil
son, as he granted the engagement,
but he listened without surrender.
Couldti’f Barter Principle
All the world may say Wood row
Wilson should have compromised
and that today he would have had
America a member of the league
with reservations. But to Woodrow
Wil: on it was an enduring principle
lie could not barter what he
thought was fundamental to ,the
peace of the world. And he looked
on ever since, waiting patiently for
the turn in the tide—a turn that
years of agitation may or may not
bring but at. the hour of his passing
from the stage of life America re
mains outside the league he worked
so ardently to establish.
Tragic may be the atmosphere,
sorrow may be felt by his friends
and foes alike that he did not retain
the physical vigor to continue his
fight, praise for his courage—all this
may be the comment of the outside
world but not a word of iity or
pathos did the Wilsonian tempera
ment want. His was the spirit of a
crusader. His was the tenacity of
a soldier in a hand-to-hand fight. He
never gave an inch. For years he
was ready for death. He went forth
on his western trip against the ad
vice of his physicians, but with a
smile of disregard for life itself. He
used to say he would gladly give his
I life for the cause of the League of
[ Nations. The remaining years of
his life were meant <to him only for
the accomplishment of the greatest
ideal ofaal a world organization for
peace.
Scarred by the war, racked in
nerves, never forgetting the awful
ness of the combat in -which he felt
always a personal responsibility, he
never could drive out of his mind
the thoughts of the hundred thou
sand American boys who died, as he
thought, for an ideal and of the
hundreds of thousands who came
home wounded and maimed in the
service of the flag.
“To make the world safe for de
mocracy” was Mr. Wilson’s war
slogan. To his critics it became an
empty phrase. But the idea of a
war to end war never left Woodrow
Wilson.
Trusted All Nations
Long after the American people
began to turn their minds to domes
tic concerns and the material side
of reconstruction, the broodings of
Mr. Wilson over the breakdown of
moral force continued. He was ar
britrary in his views about a for
mula for world peace, because he
was in no mood for detail of distrust
of other peoples or governments. All
had worked together in the common
partnership of war. All hud put
their armies and navies under one

Address
Use It befnrr you lose It. Wrie plainly

food and money and resources With-
| out stint for an ideal.
i Th-e decision of 1917 meant to
Woodrow Wilson a readiness on the
part of America to assume obliga
tions in the affairs of the world and
to fulfill them. The recession from
this viewpoint he could never under
stand. In l>is test speech tc ths
American people, over the radio on.
Armistice day, November, 1923, Mr. j
Wilson was bitter in his denuncia
tion of that policy. He called it
“cowardly” and “ignoble.” And his
words were resented by many. To
| the sick man in seclusion in the
i national capital it was but the last
'feeble attempt to bestir the people
! to a realization of the change that
had come over them since they
pledged themselves in 1917 so willing- i
ly to co-operation with the rest of 1
the world without reservation.
Seven years ago to a day almost — |
Saturday, February 3. 1917 came |
the f-ateful turn in the career to I
Woodrow Wilson. It was on that I
day that the United States severed I
diplomatic relations with Germany:
i and ordered Count. Von Bernstorff,
the German ambassador, to go home.
War followed two months later —a
war that Woodrow Wilson never
wanted to enter, though he felt for
a long time prior to 1917 that Amer
ican participation would sooner or
later become imperative. He hoped
against hope for an allied victory
without the aid of the United States.
As he steered the ship of state in
what he believed was a course of
benevolent neutrality he prayed that
the allies would end the war tri
umphantly anti enable the United
States to play a. ro’e of peacemaker
and healer of the wounds of wars.
His War Record
But when war came he threw into;
the fray with an abandon that wiped]
the mistaken phrase “too proud to
fight” out of the vocabulary of his
critics for once and all. The selec
tive service act compulsory military
service—something which under the
dread term of “conscription” had
shaken the other democracies of the
world to their foundations was rec
ommended by him with a sudden-1
ness that made everybody gasp. But'
it enabled America to put two mil-j
lion men into Europe nnd turn the.
tide of battle toward the ultimate 1
victory.
It was Woodrow Wilson who from
the first fought for unity of com
mand on land and sea and the brush
ing aside of technical sovereignty in
the interest of self preservation of
the allied peoples. His influence in
the scales made Foeh the generalis- i
simo and enabled the fleets of allies
to be combined for effective opera- ]

t tion under the British high com-
I ma nd.
The hectic days of the war tvith
i fvorries and burdens that his friends
j thought would break him down were
I weathered triumphantly but he set
i sail for the peace’conference with a
! heart saddened by the, loss of both
! houses of congress afterhis ill-fated
appeal of 1918 for a DemocraticFcon-
I gress. lie had been thinking of the
partisan attack behind his hack in
the war days. He was a partisan
too. JI is appeal for a Democratic
congress was based upon the belief
that he would be able the better to
make peace.
His construed his state
ment as a reflection on their patriot
ism. Bis advisers and friends beg
, ged him to deny it and set the coun
j ' y straight. He never issued a word
of defense, he never changed a syl
lable of the statement. He never
made a public comment on the ver
dict. He felt that if the Republican
congress would give him the proper
co-operation in making peace, the
result would speak for itself—it
would prove that he was wrong. If
■ the Republican congress blocked his
peace, egorts. as he predicted, the
country would know why he ap
pealed for a Democratic congress.
The events that followed cor.
vinced Mr. Wilson that the Repub
] licans would make a partisan ques
(ion of tlie League of Nations aid
i the peace treaty, and he was still so
i confident of the opinion of the
American people that he wanted a
referendum in tlie election of 1920
to decide the issue. But Mr. Wil
son’s precepts of government, his
theories of parliamentary govern
ment and the practical side of Amer
ican politics especially in a presi
dential year were at variance.
I.eague Friends Desert
Thirty-one prominent Republi
cans, including Elihu Root, Charles
Evans Hughes and Herbert Hoover,
interpreted the Republican national
platform of 1920, and the views of
Warren Harding, the Republican
presidential candidate, as meaning
that “a vote for Harding” was a
“vote for the league with reserva
] tions.” When the victory of the
I Republicans was won, they prompt-
I ly repudiated that position, and de
clared the “league is dead,” and in
the first inaugural address, the Re
publican president announced his

with or without reservations
And even on top of that Woodrow
Wilson hoped for vindication: in
1924. He watched the maneuvers of
the candidates. None but James M.
Cox has been mentioning the
League of Nations, but the removal
of Woodrow Wilson from the politi
cal stage will not moan that his
party will forget. William Gibbons
McAdoo, son-in-law of Woodrow
Wilson, has publicly declared foe
the Bok peace plan, which provides
for entry of the United States into
the League of Nations witji suitable
reservations and proper safeguards
on American sovereignty and inde

not heir to the* Wilson strength

has indicated his willingness to
take up the battle for the league.
