The 9 per cent .call money rate prevailed strain today, leaving the exact nature of the money situation hard to read. Numerous different causes were as signed in the talk of the banking community, but they ajre mostly causes wlnclv under ordinary cir cumstances, might have impeded re turn of easy money rates but could scarcely have produced the appear ance ot actual, stringency. We shall doubtless see the position more clear ly when Saturday's weekly bank statements are tniblislicd. In the meantime, there is no roomi for debate that certain large dis tricts of the west and south are in a condition, which, for the time, is deadlocking the free liquidation of credit engagements, tying tip the banks of those sections in loans that are neither paid off at maturity nor foreclosed and, therefore, is throwing back those banks on their stronger New York City correspondents. Depreciation Cause, So far ts the nature ot this situation can be defined, it would seem that the difficulties in adjusting credit which be set the New Tork mercantile community two or three months ago are In much the same stage as are the agricultural dis tricts. They will be settled as were the trouble at New York; In both cases It was a matter of sudden and heavy de preciation of the products or securities In which the borrowers had Invested the proceeds of their loans at the early high prices of 1920. The January record of business failures reflects this condition. Bradstreet's de. scribes them as the largest- In number or any January on record except 1915, with the heaviest liabilities and the lars est increase over January a year aire oc curring In the south, where the delusion. both of producers and bankers, as to the market for their cotton will probably long .oiitHiu who vi nits irauuion oi Mock Market Weak. The stock market was weaV lipnin un der the influence of th money rate; but antes were not large and probably repre sented for the moat part, the closing out by professional operators of recent specu lative ventures for the rise. There was no evidence that railway shares were particularly affected by Mr. Atterbury's gloomy review of earnings results In Jan uary In his speech to the federal railway labor board. The facts were In general known alreasV; insofar as the conditions recited are ot a continuing nature, the government Is virtually pledged by Its own formal engagements to find a solu tion. Foreign exchange moved hesitant today and in the afternoon the rates declined irregularly, although with partial recov ery before tha clos. Sterling lost a full cent, French and Belgian francs about Uo each. Silver bullion continued Wed nesday's recovery; an advance of 3 ii pence today brought the London price 3U pence bo the low level reached two days ago. Itaok Deposit Decline. Something of the influence which havt been reflected 'in New Tork was visible In today's European bank returns. Ths Bank of England' percentage of banking reserve to dipon!ts, which had arlsien from 7 1-3 on December SO to H'i a weelt ago, now declines to 11.J. Last year the present week was marked by an increase In the ratio, which rose from 9'i per eeo$ at the end of December, to 22H at the opening of February. Today's French bank state ment showed 292,000,000 francs Increase In note circulation, following the 474,000. 000 decrease of the three preceding weeks, A year ago. contraction of 427.000.000 francs between January 7 and January 29 was followed by 459,000,000 expansion in the ensuing week. These European indications are by tio means unimportant. First because they are not altogether what fine would have expected if the credit situation wan actually easing, but also because of the absence of that continuous decrease In til currency which might logically have re sulted from the trade reaction. New York Quotations Omaha. Feb. 3. Cash grain prices suffered declines all around today, wheat leading with a break of 5 to 6 cents. Chicago future market in this grain was off several cents. The demand here was limited. Com declined 1 to Vj cents and oats were off Vt cent. Rye prices were 2 cents lower and barley nominally weak. Wheat and corn receipts were moderate and oats light. Some wheat was worked for export via the gulf on today's break in futures, said a Chicago wire. Quantities were not given. Buying of March wheat, of liberal volume on the break in futures by houses with export connections tem porarily checked the decline, said a Chicago message. Lack of general demand was said to be a feature to day in all the pits on the Chicago market. Russel's News Bureau said that Holland took 85,000 bushels of corn today. Official -estimate of acreage sown to wheat in France shows an increase of 130,000 acres with the condition 69 per cent. A Brussels cable says that Belgium has decided to open negotiations with the United States, Brazil, Argentine and, Roumania, with a view ot having these countries take lielgiuni manufactured articles .n exchange for raw materials and ce real.

A great deal of pessimism was dis played by the trade in general, but it was largely on the same character of conditions as for some time past. Whenever the markets show weak ness it always appears. A feature of the trading was the poor buying support after the early show of strength and good" advance over the previous day's finish. It was largely the result of buying by local opera tors wta believed that prices were low enough, but when the tid turned they became sellers and as sisted in making the late decline.

One trouble with the corn market, as most operators see it, is the slow cash demand from ths east, although the sea board took 68.000 hushcls and domestic buelncps was 13.000 bushels.

Washington, Feb. 3. Another broadside was let loose by Charles Dawes today against the congress ional methods of investigating the conduct of the war. Attacking what he characterized as a partisan attempt to blacken the name of the American army because of the blunders' of a few, the former brigadier general in charge of sup ply procurement in France declared house committees could serve a more useful public service by turninir the searchlight on the waste of millions of government dollars, right under their nose. Women in the crowded committee room failed to prevent Mr. Dawes from swearing like a "buck" private. He strode about, hitting harder than he was hit and swearing madly when he construed the questioning as a reflection on any section of the fighting outfit of which he was a part. , Mr, Dawes did not conceal the feeling that he was having a good time. At times the room was in an uproar of merriment, and the echo of oaths swept down the long corri dor as he turned his wrathful lan guage upon critics of the war who stayed at home. Probe No Longer News. Referring to investigations by the house, Mr. Dawes said he thought the people were sick of them. hy, there is no longer, any news in it," he shouted. "If I was not here, strutting around and swearing, there would be none in this. I don't forget it was an American war, not a republican and democratic war and the record of the glorious work of our army will live hundreds of years after your committee is dead and gone and fprgotten.',' When the name of General Per shing was brought up. Mr. Dawes could scarcely control his anger. 'There were hounds in this coun try," he declared, "who tried to spread the false news that Pershing was at a theater the night of the armistice. He was there, like hell. He was at his office, starting the work of cancelling vast war con tracts to save money. It will take 25 or Sft years for Pershing to get his place in history, but , let me tell yrw the time wjll come "when every doughboy overseas will be proud to say he was one of Pershing's men. "You can try to give me all the hell you want I like"it. You kick because I sold a lot of second-hand junk to the French goverrrment for $400,000,000" instead of keeping 40, 000 soldiers there to guard it while we tried to peddle it. Mv conscience hurts me sometimes when I think we charged them too much." Gives Full Credit. Mr. "Dawes said he was "a repub lican, but was broad enought to give the War'department full credit for its work in. getting more men to the front thaii France and Great Britain put there in the-same period. Then, he jumped on the department and denounced, it. for its refusal to permit promotion pf men in th? ranks. The rule by which men, eager to' go overseas, but kept at home, were required to wear silver stripes, was characterized as one of the most disgraceful acts of the war. - NMr. Dawes said it was all right for congress to try and find and punish, men who made mistakes in the stress of the war, but told the committee it would get nowhere and that the ' public was not con cerned with those mistakes now. "And they are trying to say Per shing permitted the sacrifice of thousands of lives 'on Armistice day. It's the most damnable lie ever ut tered . And it's all right to sit back here, viewing from a partisan stand point, the work overseas, when if you people so free to condemn had been -there you might have done just as we did or worse. Liquida tion? Why hell men, we liquidated everything. There wasn't anv wil ful destruction of property in France as this committee has tried to show. The junk we couldn't sell was given away it was cheaper than burning or burying it. They pinned one of those medals on mcf but it had a damned sight better gone to some poor1 devil in the ranks who better deserved it." Fail to Find Burglars Beatrice, Neb., Feb. 3. (Special.)

V A banquet given by the Men's Ap parel club of Nebraska to the" State Retail Clothiers' association closedt the conventions of these organiza tions at the Hotel Fonteiielle last night. Entertainment was furnished by John A. McCreary and Jack Conuers. Both groups will fneet in Omaha again next year. Resolutions adopted by the retail ers ende-rsed the campaign of the national prosperity bureau, called for repeal of the luxury tas, supported corn meal week and. criticised the newspapers for .alleged unfairness. The last mentioned resolution rends: "Resolved, that we condemn the unfair propaganda indulged in by the public press inveighing against the retail merchants of the country." Opposed to Sweat Shops. That the clothiers of Nebraska are unalterably opposed to the res toration of sweat shop conditions in the factories of New York City was evidenced by the hearty ap plause that greeted a paper read by William L. Holzman, treasurer of the Nebraska Clothing company of Omaha. This was a communication from Sidney Ilillman. president of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, calling attention to the fact that 65,000 clothing makers are out of work in that city through the breaking of contracts by the factory owners. "On the existence of a proper in dustrial structure depends the wel fare of the country," Mr. Hillman wrote. "Is the law of the jungle to prevail, or is industry to be gov erned by orderly rules? If one-half the energy now spent in industrial warfare could be diverted into co operation, most of our problems could be solved. Scores Reduction Methods. "Shall we go on heedlessly and drift into catastrophe, or shall work ers, employers, consumers and the state get together on a fair basis? A year ago laborers were accused of not pfoducing enough, but now the only people to cry "produce, pro duce," are the unemployed. When the government was waging a cam paign to bring down prices, it was not gone about scientifically, but politically. Now the quack phy sicians have another label on the patent medicine bottle, saying, 'union baiting, labor smashing." Mr. Hillman included a number of editorials from the New York papers throwing the blame for the condi tions in the New York clothing fac tories on the employers and accusing ' them of tearing down a system of arbitration that had bi ought peace to the industry, in hope of bringing back sweat shops, Discusses Customers' Credit' J.

Kano, Lincoln coun ty Japanese farmer, and a Ncbras ka university graduate, pleaded in broken English today before the house judiciary committee to have Nebraska keep her hands out of an international problem and permit the big statesmen of the two countries to fornyilate a future for the Ja panese in America. Kano appeared before the coin mittee in an attempt to get the Da- vis land bill, aimed at Japanese in Lincoln county, killed.

"Those tf us here are too smart to permit one and we have a society in the state which will see that the Japanese population in Nebraska will de crease rather than increase." The Davis bill provides that aliens who cannot become citizens cannot own land in Nebraska, but that their rights as set out under treaty agreements shall not be tampered, with. The present land owned by Japanese would be condemned and purchased by the state at the. orig inal prices paid for it, under the Da vis bill, according to a statement by, a judicfary committee member. r-i i ci i r ... nr ci..n'.i. run, of North Platte also appeared before the committee to plead for the retention of the property which Nebraska Japanese have improved.
