There was a brisk iiiquir.v for a number of industrials and specialties, lifting United States Steel, preferred, and some low' priced issues a point. Stocks derived streanght during the morning session from a resumption of the buying mov’ement coupled with a further scrambling of shorts to cov er. Prices of Americans irr London and reduction of the discount rate of the Imperial Bank of Germany were bullish factors. The Ihree leaders—Reading, T'^nion f^aciffic and U. S.

KROP OF DOLUIR AND HALF PEA BALE IN COTTON By Associated Press. New Orleans. Feb. 6.—The price of cotton broke about a dollar and a half a bale this morning under sell ing pressure induced by a variety of bearish features, chief among which W’s the spread of plague in Harbin, the great number of . cases of starva tion reported in China, the weakness of the Egyptian cotton market and sympathetic weakness in l.iverpool and the drop in the price of silver in London. Heavy selling started as soon as the market opened, first prices being 16 to 17 points down. Offerings ap peared to be about equally divided between the long and short account. It was rumored that large lines of long cotton were being liquidated. At noon the market had recovered 4 to 6 points from the low'est on profit taking by satisfied shorts. At the . low’est of the morning March was a little over a cent a pound, or five dollars a bale dow’n from the highest levels reached- this season Senator Lodge On Direct Election Of United States Senaton By Associated Press. Washington, D. C., Feb. 6.—Resist ance to the uttermost to the attempts of the transfer from congress to the various state legislatures the control of the time and manner of electing United States senators as proposed by the resolution providing for their elec tion by direct vote of the people w^as advised by Senator Lodge, of Massa chusetts-, in a speech in the senate to day. Mr. Lodge was speaking in opposi tion to the proposed amendment to the Constitution as a whole, but he found an especial mark in the portion placing the direct management of the detail of senatorial elections with the various state legislatures. Declaring that the proposed change in that respect “strikes at the very foundation of the national govern ment,” Mr. Lodge said that the plan violated the plans of the framers of the Constitution. “It is now proposed,” continued Mr. Lodge, “to put the United States gov ernment, as far as the election of senators is concerned, at the mercy of the states. It is proposed to take from the United States any power to protect its owm citizens in the exercise of their rights,' no matter how' great the need might be for such protection. If this amendment should become a law, 23 states, including perhaps only a minority of the population, could at any moment arrest the movement ot the government and stop all of its op erations.” The senator denounced as “a mock ery” the “pretense” that the proposed legislation is progression. Not only was it a mockery, but it was “retro gression and reaction of an extreme Iclnd,” he said. “If adopted,” he went on, “it would carry the government back to the con troversies and the struggles out of which the Constitution was born and which beset and endangered the fan cy of the United States.” Enlarging upon the danger of the proposed change, Mr. Lodge said: “Self-preservation is the first law of government as it is of nature, and it seems to me that no matter how we may decide the question of methods by w'hich senators should be elected, the reservation of the power of the United States to, control those elec tions, if need be, Is essential to the government’s safe and continued exist ence. Any attempt of this sort to break dow'n or weaken the authority of the United States ought to be resisted to the last. It is amazing that it should be suggested at a time like this, when the government of the United States is of necessity taking up new duties and new obligations as demanded by the conditions of the time; at a mom ent when the national government re quires all its strength. And yet it is proposed here to w^eaken It, to take from it the one power which in the time of stress will assure its exist ence. “I can not believe that such a proposition as this will be accepted by congress. I can not believe that the country w'old tolerate it if it were once understood. Too much has been sacrificed to preserve the union of states and to maintain the national government to permit any tampering Avith those clauses which guaranteed its very life.” The Massachusetts senator reiterat ed his opposition to the election of senators by the people and contended for the maintenance of the Constitu tion in its integrity. “It has,” he said, “show'n itself capable of adapta tion to the new demands as it has ad opted itself to those of the past, and 1 have hoped and believed that the new policies and the necessary reforms which the people desire could all be brought about, as they have hitherto been accomplished, under the Constitu tion. But new prophets have arisen who are not content with the reforms which have been and w^hich will be effected by law' and they demand that the Constitution itself shall be chang^. Its success in the past, which has challenged the admiration of the world, is not to be considered as any plea in its behalf.” That there is a menace of the con trol of the state legislature by corrupt means, Mr. Lodge denied. Any danger of the moneyed interests getting ev en partial control of the government or acquiring uadue political influence has been brought to an end in the last teen years,” he said. “Just now the financial, business and corporate interests of the coun try seem far more concerned in tning to find out whether they are to be allowed to live and breathe than in seeking to control anybody in politics out of politics.” Closing his address with an appeal for the preservation of the Constitu tion Mr. Lodge said: “We shall do w'ell to hesitate be fore we mar a Constitution crowned by the triumplis of a century and to whiQh the sad word ‘failure’ is still a stranger.’’ DEATH STALKS IN DREAD SHAPE. Thousands Fall Victims to Invisible Phantom. Harbin. Manchuria. Feb. 6.—Already nearly 6,000 bodies of victims of the plague have been burned or buried in the outsliirts of Harbin. Forty-eigiit hundred of these came from the Chin ese town and 1,000 from the Russian quarter. Yesterday 16 stacks of coffins and seven pits filled with bodies and oiled logs blazed outside the tow’n. The mortality among the physicians and the hospital attendants is high, considering the means taken for their protection, and doctors, nurses and orderlies are succumbing to the dis ease. The sanitary authorities hope soon to test serum of their own manufac ture from the Manchurian baccilli as the foreign importations have proved ineffective. The happenings in Europe in the 17th century w'hen the ‘‘Black Death” swept through the country are being repeated here. Fear^ bordering on panic have gripped the Chinese. At first they .defined the medical officers, and kept their sick and dead hidden for the purpose of carrying out the ancient funeral rites. Now it is brother against brother and father against sou. The stricken ones are forced into the streets to starve or freeze or to fall perishing from the swift and deadly attack of the plague. Passers-by avoid them, but sometimes those engaged in sani tary work, masked and bandaged, reach them before they die and cart them to the pest house, or if they are dead, to the funeral pyres. Not in frequently and outcast is seen to be kneeling and making his obeisance before the grave of an ancestor, in sight of a pile of bodies in which he is soon to become one.
