With five members of th national house
of representatives and other notable speak
ers on the program for addresses, the an
nual bunquet of the Council Bluffs Com
mercial club, to be held ;on the night of
Saturday, March 14 at the Grand , hotel,
promises to be the most notable in the
history of the organisation. Not lrf the
history of any organisation in this city,
nor on any previous occasion, nave so many
notable speakers been heard as will be the
case at this banquet.
The congressmen who have accepted In
vitations to attend the banquet and re
spond to toasts'lnclude jjome or the ablest
nnd most distinguished members of the
house of representatives'. They are Hon.
Charles E. I.lttletleld of Kockland, Me.;
Hon. James Tuwney of Winona, Minn.;
Hon. Washington Gardner of Albion,. Mich.,
nnd Hon. Francis R. Cushman of Tacoma,
Wash. Congressman Walter I. Smith of
this city will also be present and In addl
;lon to acting -as toastmoster will respond
to one of the toasts. Tlie committee In
charge has hopes also of securing the at
tendance of Congressman J. P. Conner of
Denlson, la., and Congressman Kennedy
of- Omaha. Another notable speaker of
the evening will be Judge M. J. "Wade of
Iowa City, former congressman from the
Second Iowa district. Victor E. Bender of
this city will be the representative of the
Commercial club on the program, and It is
hoped that Hon. Lew Genung of Mills
county will also be one of the speakers.
The matter of securing the notable speak
ers for the annual banquet was left en
tirely In the hands of Congressman Smith,
and a telegram from 111111 received yester
day by C. W. McDonald, president of the
club, announced the acceptance of his four
colleagues to attend and take part in the
program.
An Invitation has been extended Secre
tary ShaW, but he has so far been unable
to give any assurance that he will be able
to accept It At first It waa thought pos
sible to secure the presence of , one or
more United States senators, especially
Senator Gamble of South Daltota but
Congressman Bmilh wrote the committee
that the talk of a possible extra session
of the senate prevents, me senators from
making any arrangements or accepting any
Invitations during 'March.
Congressman- Littlefield is billed for an
address at Oskalooaa, la., on March 15,
and Congressman Cushman expects to be
In thla vicinity during the middle of March,
so he at once accepted the Invitation to at
tend the banquet here. Congressman
Gardner of Oukland, this- county, will
be one of the guests at the banquet. Con
gressman Cushman Is a native of Iowa,
having been born at Brighton, Washington
county. 1
The annual election of the Commercial
club will be held Wednesday, March 6. ,

over goods and try to sell them to the
women teachers.

NEW YORK. Fi b. 15 -There was little
animation In the dealings In stocks today,
but decided headway was made In the pries
movement against tne rcactloiiuiv tendency
which developed yest rday. The first tons
of the money market was practically Ig
nored on account of the supixmltlon that
the tightness of the call money market
vas-oue to temporary causes nnd that
forces of relief would come into play. Tim
principal of these relied ufj.ui Is the secur
ing of gold in 1ondon, which Is expected
on Monday, when large arrivals are duo
there. The strong position disclosed by ths
Bank of England in Its weekly statement
yesterday cr.ated an Impression that no
further obstacles would be opposed to a
movement of gold to New York, but ths
tone of comment from London today In
dicated that financial " authorities tht-ru
would feel some continuing dissatisfaction
at such a movement. There are reports of
coming large withdrawals for South
America from that center. Stress Is laid
on the probability that Paris will recall
the credits tdaced In London In leccmU r,
when the Bank of France extended
slstance to the Bank of England. A ilo
cllne In Interest rates In London, It Is B.ud,
would lead to shipments of gold from Lon
don to Paris.
The New York banks today turned over
to the subtreasury some 11.200,000. bcin
the remainder of the deposits made wlili
the banks In December. The Interior banlia
have drawn on their New York corre
spondents only to a small extent to nil .
these payments, the higher rates for call
loan here acting as a discouraging IniJu
ence on any reduction of New York ac
counts. Estimates of the week's curreni-y
movrment indicate a small change In thn
cash Item either way. The government
withdrawals six weeks ago were thrown
over almost entirely Into the averages lor
the following weeks helped materially to
make the weak showing , of last week's
bank statement. Lending In this market
by interior bunking Institutions would tend
to relieve demands on the local banks, but
the further placing of note Issues would
constitute a demand for loans on the local
banks. Today's addition to these Issues
was the ?10,0n0.000 placed by tho Interbor
ough Metropolitan, the price at which they
were understood to be taken by the bank
ers, Indicating an Interest rate of to 7
per cent for the term to their maturity.
The rates for time loans, however, show a
r-ceding tendency, owing to; the lending
here for account of Interior banks. A de
cline In the grain exports for the week of
820,(00 bu. of wheat and of 419.000 bu. of
corn has some bearing on the exchangs
market. The rising money market In Ber
lin also Is a factor in the situation.
The repression of activity In the market
Is belleyed to be due In part to a dcslrs
to await the adjournment of congress he
fore entering upon extensive market com
mitments. The resumption of the Inter
state Commerce commission's inquiry Into
the Harrlman combination of railroad
properties Is another Item of future In
fluence to bear on the market, which Is
the occasion of some reserve In speculative
operations. Not only were dealings held In
moderate bounds today, but price move
ments of consequence were restricted to
comparatively few stocks. A record pries
for Anaconda wns an Incident of the day.
The sharp advances In Missouri, Kansas
& Texas and St. iouls Smithw stern pre-
rerrea were unexplained by any news.
Realizing sales Impaired the best prices of
the day, but the closing tone was steady.
Bonds were steady. Total sales par value,
11,280,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.
