Government Barge Line
Proves Mississippi River
Can Be Used as Traffic
Carrier at Profit.
, Br HOLLAND.
For once at least the United Slates
government hat made money in a
bujiiiesi enterprise which it started
when the war wan in nrogrei. Ac
curate figure obtained by the Manu
facturers Record of Baltimore show
that the government barge line n
the lower Mississippi river from St.
Louis to New Orleans earned in five
months of this year, beginning with
April, S257.IXX) more than it cost to
operate 4his line. These are mo
mentous figures for they dem
onstrate that once more the Mis
sissippi river has become one of
the great arteries of transportation as
it was until railroad competition im
paired it.
Th. Mlaalaalppt tnd th Hudann hav at.
way been chief la waterway tranaporla
ton In th United Ptates, running (rom
th north lo th south, and both mply
log Into th es. For many year, how
ever, attar railroad., waterway cradually
fell oft upon th Mlailaalppl It termed to
bav permanently ndd. In 1862. which
was tha year whan traffic hy meana of
th allaalaalppl waa at Ita helsht, a llttl
over SOS atramboata found thair northern
teimina! at HI. Louie, each boat capable of
accepting a load of ts tona and that waa
thought a great achievement. But th
government Mlaalaalppt bur lie line which
move fleet, each of which ha 2o,0o
tnna capacity, ha handled mora freight
In and out of St. I.ouia on th river to
th five month alnc April 1 of this yaar
than waa handled by all th steamboat In
ina enure year or IS5J. Thl haa been
don at a profit and th aucceaa of thla
entarprla Initiated by th government I
regarded a making It certain that th
Mlaalaalppt valley, which I bltected by
the river extending to Bt. Paul, taking
In th Mtaaourl, th Ohio and th Illinois
rlvera, la aur to become th center of
on of th greateat tranaportatlona move
ment In th United State.
For many year th belief waa main
tained that aa a tranaportation carrier ex.
reptlng for eome araall craft the Mlle
aippl river had hud It day. Yet th Euro,
pean war compelled th government to
take advantage of every active or Inactive
tranaportation facility, Th government
officer conaldered th Mlaalaalppt and dla.
covered that the river's current waa about
four mllea an hour and thl over the
1 nrn mllea between Mew Orleana and St.
Louli,
Need of Tranaportation.
Nevertheless th government, facing thia
obatacle, decided to quicken the Mlealaaippi
Into new life, but to do thl It waa com
pelled to build a vaat amount or equip
ment. . Th cement Industry before th
European war began had already utilised
with aucceefl th upper allssisaippl be
tween St. Paul and St. I.ou',s. But thl
traftlo waa a trifle In comparlaon with
that which the government Bought to
secure. Congress aided the government
by enacting a law whereby th Interstate
Commerc commission can forbid the rall-
road from making rates upon the line
which parallel the navigable rlvera so
small aa to put river competition to an
,nd. Th government barge line also se
cures a differential of 20 per cent under
railroad ratca.
Thla barge line haa saved shippers In
the five months slnoe April 1 1175,000.
The total river tonnage at St. Louis In
186! aa reported by the Manufacturers
Record waa nearly 845,000. Th gov
ernment barge line will have thla fall a
capacity of 1,600,000 tons.
On Immediate effect of the demon
stration made by the government that It
Is possible to transport heavy traffic up
and down the Miaalsslppl and to do It
at a profit, whlls at the una time there
I a eavlng for the shippers, is shown by
the utilization Chicago is now making of
this barg line. Both Chicago and St.
Loula have learned that they can easily
compete with the eastern seaboard for
trade upon the Pacific coast by way of
the Panama canal If they utilise these
waterways which the government Is now
so aucceaatully operating upon.
The government officer wondered at
first whether It would be possible to se
cure profit-earning freight both ways, that
la to ay, that which Is delivered at St.
Louis or other polnta for New Orleana
or the Pacific coast and on the other
hand gain equally profitable return freignt.
But in the five months since April 1 it ha
been found that the movement of freight
both waya I about equal, that la to say
from St. Loula eoutherly and from New
Orleana or the Panama canal northerly.
Th farmcre have been sending fregnt
and grain In large amounts by the govern
ment barges, for they have learned that
they can save about 3 cents a bushel In
the cost of grain movement. The barges
take on at New Orleana molasses, oil,
sugar and sisal.
Now that the demonstration has been
made of the recoevry of the Mississippi
river to Its former position as one of the
great traffic carriers of the United States,
confidence prevails throughout the entire
Miaalsslppl valley respecting the available
Itv of water transportation. The state
of Illinois realises this and feels justlfed
In spending 130.000,000 ao that the Iiltnots
and the Chicago rlvera can be connected.
St. Louis Is so firmly convinced of the
permanent recovery of the Mississippi that
th city la building modern docks which
are very large, with admirable freight
handling machinery. New Orleans, which
formerly was the second American port,
will spend all the money for dock and
freight handling faollitles that Is needed
if It can In that way regain Its former
preatage. By-and-by the government,
having demonstrated the transportation
value of the Mississippi and its tributaries,
will probably aell the ownership of Its
barg line to private interests and thee
interests will extend the service to the
upper Mississippi, the Ohio, the Missouri
and the Illinois. The recovery of the
Mississippi and lta tributaries is one of
the unexpected and perhaps the moat
highly gratifying results which have come
from the emergencies which the govern
ment was compelled to meet and over
come In war days.
X Vark Catton.
New York, Nov, 4. A reaction In tho
closing hour, following a recovery which
made up the ground lost in a moderate
early decline, brought today's cotton mar
ket about' on a level with laat night's
close. A eontinuatlon of yesterday'a late
decline marked early dealings, the drop
being mainly a reflection of weakness
In the Liverpool market, where heavy
liquidation and lack of demand resulted,
In a sharp fall, ....
After opening heavy at a net losa of
11 to J points, the market met lo
creaaed aelllng from a number of In
tereata and dropped to a level of more
than Ho a pound loss In some cases.
There waa considerable long liquidation
In evidence at times, as well as selling
for New Orleans account, which waa
poorly absorbed. Trade Interests and spot
houses bought a little cotton.
A decided Improvement In price was
noticeable as th session progressed, the
market regaining all of Ita early loss
with active ehort covering for over th
week-end and demand' from trade In
tereots. Th betterment In the tock mar
ket was a factor, but th recovery waa
due primarily to the publication of bull
ish statistic.
The market advanced about 84 to 24
polnta before enough realising by pro
fessionals developed to bring about a re
action. At the start of the final hour
te list was T to IS polnta net higher.
Final blda were 884 points net lower.

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Ues Iaaed Wire.
New York, Nov. 4. The market
for investment bonds held he cen
ter of the stage again today, notably
in its display of strength and activity
in foreign government securities. In
those bonds, the day's transactions
were of quite unusual magnitude, the
United Kingdom and the French re
public bonds taking the lead. In a
long list of other foreign national
and municipal bonds advances of a
point or more were scored on to
day's market. There were similar
advances in many bonds of railway
and industrial companies and United
States bonds went higher, the Vic
tory 4 3-4 per cents touching par
on a full transaction, for the first
time since July, 1919. But the for
eign bonds were the real focus of
interest.
This week's movement in the bonds
will probably be more effective than
any other argument in dispelling the
crude ideas which have existed in
the matter. A 5-point rise in the
prices of a government bond, even
when caused by reduction in reserve
bank rates, has powerful effect In
enabling Wall street to discover the
really strong points in such a gov
ernment's situation.
Stock Market Unsteady.
Today's stock market lapsed back Into
the condition which It displayed during
the week's earlier days; It was made up
of mingled advances and declines bear
ing no relation to on another, European
exchange rate also moved uncertainly,
but German mark fell a peg lower,
touching .0041. The Austrian orown, de
clined along with marks.
The best that th week-end mercantile
trade review can say of th business sit
uation is that response to favorable un
derlying Influence "does not come quick
ly," though "evidences of revival multi
ply." The teatlmony of the country's av
erage dally exchange of checks Is much
In line with other indexes of trade. For
th present month to date, the average
I larger than In any month sine Jan
uary, yet 20 per cent pelow 192 J. Again
as in nearly every week since August, th
long list of commodities In Dun's review
shows more separate advancea than de
clines, a movement which explains the
1H per cent advance In Dun's "Index
number" of average commodity price for
October, notwithstanding a moderate de
cline In the metala, and a heavy decline
In grain.

By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
ClUrago Trlbsns-Omaba Ho Leased IV Ira.
Chicago, Nov. 4. Wheat closed
strong near the best prices of the
day. Reports from Argentina were
rather disquieting as to the progress
of the crop and this inspired some
investment buying and there was
much short covering. One Ar
gentine cable told of locusts in two
of the big wheat provinces, while
another told of unseasonable cold
Wtatcr and threatened frost. Rest
ing spots were 7A(q,2c higher. Corn
finished ?il'VoC higher. There is
a strong situation developing in this
grain because of the movement
festered by bankers and government
officials to aid farmers in holding
their corn for better prices. Oats
advanced Mfc higher. Rye was
WK'W liiRhcr and barelv 'Ac hieher.
Wheat broke to new low ooints
at the start, but the market recovered
a few minutes later and little change
in prices from the previous close was
noted at midscssion. ' The buying
was easier to trace tnan the se Una-.
Almost every commission house ad
vised its customers to buy wheat for
an investment and this resulted in a
broadening of buying power. The
locals were buying on the theory that
prices are too low, but despite the
good buying power, the market
seemed unable to climb much above
the previous close. Local receipts
caiiiuaica at 13 cars.
Corn had a firm tuderlone. The buy
ing power was broader with lean diapu
altlon to sell. Liquidation apparently
haa been thorough and there la veiy llttlo
pressure on the market. Receipts are
light and cash corn haa been advanclrof
ateadlly until good premluma are belatf
obtained for contract varletlea. The coun
try offered com a little more freely to
arrive, but at prices above the present
market and tho aggregate quantity waa
rot large. Local receipts wer estimated
at 200 can.
Firmness developed in oat sgb'sesoent
to an easier start. At the outset local
pressure was In evidence, aa the result
of a further drop in wheat. Offering
wero aosoroaq oy strong interesta and the
market rallied later on a let up in selllnk.
A lair part of the later trade was In way
of changing, rcrthweat buying December
against aales f May, while elevator con
cerns worked on the opposite side. Local
arrivals were estimated at 66 cars.
There were no sales reported in rye;
No. X wa quoted 1 cent under December
price. Receipt. 3 car. '
Barley ruled quiet. i
Pit Notes,
Argentine cables indicated a turn to
much colder weather with frost Indicated,
This, tt waa feared, would tend to retard
growth of wheat and possibly hurt com.
The main effect of th cables reporting
locusts and possibility of froat was to
center all attention on Argentina which
from now on will be a big factor' in the
wheat situation.
The acreage of wheat In 'Washington the
coming seaaou will be much reduced, ac
cording to reports from many counties.
Farmers were said to be storing wheat
and refusing to Bell at $1.
Estimatea of the amount of wh?at under
Ountract to be skipped for export vary
greatly, running all tlie way from 24,000,
000 bushels to 50,000.000 bushels. It is
hard, according to seaboard houses, to
estimate the amount of Canadian grain
under contract, aa bo much of it. is sold
through channels which do not show in
the. open market. Considerable Pacific
coast wheat has been booked, .V -
According to the latest estimate of
Argentine wheat acreage "received ' by
Washington, the crop this season will hi
about 1,000,000 acres less than last year.
Reports from 29 leading wheat growing
countries indicate a world's crop of wheat,
xcluding Russia, ot 2,852,000,000 bushels.
Portland, Ore., bida went down to 97c
for the beat variety of wheat yesterday, a
reduction of 203c per bushel for the day.
The current prices are now tho lowest in
about six years. Japanese tmyers have
been trying to resell wheat at Portland,
owing to cheaper offerlnga from Canaau
and Australia.
Lona of flour in the Erie fire at Jersey
City I placed as high as 100,000 barrels.
The outlook for the new corn crop in
Argentina is favorable. Seasonable
weather has prevailed. The new wheat
trop Is coming along In good shupe also.
Clearancea of wheat are small.
