NEW YORK. Feb. 9. The coffee mar
ket was sensationally excited In to
day's trading. Not since 1903-04 has
there been such a fluctuation In prices.
The market has been declining rapidly
since the middle Jt January, and. al
though prices at the close last night
were something like IS to 3 cents a
pound below tbe high point of the sea
son, the opening this morning was at a
further decline of from IT to 41 points.
The primary market has been rela
tively firm since the downward move
ment started, and with a considerable
stock la Santos held above a parity
wtth the local consuming markets, the
talk of financial troubles exerted a most
bearish Influence.
Offerings were absorbed, however, by
strong trade Interests or shorts at the
initial decline, and in the middle of
the day the market became as sensa
tionally strong as It had earlier been
weak. The general covering move
ment followed private cables absolutely
denying that there was any trouble In
the Santos market, or that, owing to the
recent break In prlcea, the offering of
valorisation coffee next April would be
withdrawn.
This referred to the announcement
made early In the year that the valor
isation remratttee In control of more
than tfUWD bags by the Brazilian
government would offer 1.200.0UO bags
In the world's markets during April.

WILSON ANSWERS GRANGERS
Secretary Saya Farmers Gain Along
With Other Interests.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9. "The pending
reciprocity treaty with Canada will go
some distance towards meeting ehe de
mands of the People at the lust election
mlihout interfering with the policy of
protection as applied to the whole
world."
This Is the conclusion of James Wll.
son. Secretary of Agriculture, in an
auaar on be naif of tne Taft Adminis
tration to the National Grange's de
clared opposition to the agreement. The
answer Ix in the form of an open letter
made public today, addressed to the leg
islative committee of tne isauonai
Uranse. Concord. N. B.
Mr. Wilson argues that tbe cost of
production in the United States and
Canada Is more nearly Identical than it
la between the United Sftatrev and any
other country; that the same difficulties
with regard to farm labor exist on both
sides of the International line and that
Canadian and American farming methods
are virtually the same. Mr. Wilson say
In part:
Demand for Reduction Met.
"Prices for the necessities of life have
been high, snd wages and salaries have
not kept pace with the Increase. There
wse a demand for loner tariffs In the
last election by the population of the
towns. That Interest carried the elec
tion by default. A nw Congress was
elected slong the tariff lines, if it had
sny Instructions from the people.
"This treaty Is not one-eaded, giving
our markets for meats and grains to the
Canuuians with nothing In return. We
get In the Canadian woods, timber pro
ducts, things very much needed, w our
home supplies are so much reduced that
prices have gone up markedly In the last
few years. The Southern states have a
new market for their cottonseed oils.
which will be valuable to them.
"t'unada opens her doors to our fruits,
which w(I give to our orchardlsts a
growing market for their products. Fish
corneal Into the lulled States free, which
will mean quite an much to our people
as the opening of our markets to Cana
dian poultry products. We are to have
free trade in seeds, which is well, be
cause many seeds are mere valuable
coming from northern latitude We do
not grow enough flax to make our oil
and will derive benefit from the free in
troduction of flax seed.
When Oratory Stops, Farmer Loses.
"The Payne tariff set reduces duties on
a great many articles and we have been
heavy importers since the passage of
that act. That may do no harm: Indeed,
may be Jus tilled; but whenever these
reductions go so far as to permit very
heavy importations of goods) In those
classes, the factory stops and the farmer
loses his market.
"Reciprocity with Canada must be
looked upon from a viewpoint somewhat
different from that of a tariff act af
fecting our commerce with the entire
worfd. Localities in both Canada and
the United States will be orposed for
real or imaginary reasons.
"Our relations with the people of Cana
da, axe different from our relations with
any other people. In the first place, they
are a kindred people and their territory
runs rrom sea to sea along our northern
border. We hud reciprocity with Canada
not many years ago. That was abrogated
more through temporary sentimental con
siderations than from any other cause.

House Opposes Reciprocity.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or.. Feb. 9
-(Special.) The House today adopted
Fouts' Joint memorial requesting Ore
gon's delegation in Congress to oppose
the Canaaian reciprocal agreement
pending before Congress and advocated
by President Taft. There were not
half a dosen votes against the memo
ri
Reciprocity Meets Opposition.
Trndo Relations W 111 Grow.
"If this reciprocity treaty becomes the
law of both countries, ur Relations
with Canada will become more intimate
and our trade with her will extend and
Increase. If this i desirable on the
part of Canada, it certainly should be
desirable on the port of the people of
the United states."
Mr. Wilson concludes that, if the
United States handiest Canada's surplus
wheat. American transportation facili
ties will tend to reduce the price of
bread to the American consumer. He
suggests that the Canadians also will be
able to furnish cattle feeders for the
corn bolt of the United States and that
meats will be reduced In price by the
sctlvltiee) of the American ranchers and
homesteaders.
BOSTON'. Feb. 9. By a vote of 61 to 313.
the Massachusetts House of Representa
tives refused today to Indorse the pro
posed Canadian reciprocity agreement at
this time, and referred several orders
on the subject to a committee. This com
mittee will hold public bearings and re
port its findings, with recommendations.

ate today.
Beverldge of Indiana, an insurgent.
lined up on the side of the Administra
tion. He did not make a pretense of
representing others of the progressive
Republican camp.
Beverldge welcomed the compact aa
the first concrete evidence of the es
tablishment of such relations with Can
ada as he thought the United States
should maintain wtth that country. He
continued:
"If some think that the agreement
Is not all It should be because of the
treatment ot a rew articles, the answer
is that even If this objection Is sound
as to those few details, yet It Is negli
gible when compared with the Import
ance of getting this great National
policy established.
"If the agreement Is enacted Into law
and proves beneficial to the Nation as
a whole, it Is certain to be extended as
time goes on and the two peoples exper
ience Its good effect. If. on the other
hand. It should prove harmful to the
Nation as a whole. It could be repealed
quickly."
In conclusion. Beverldge said:
"Wo do not need to protect our peo
ple from the Canadian people. What we
neesl Is to make It easier for Canada
to buy freely from us the things she
needs that we produce. What we need is
to make It easy for our people to buy
from Canada those things which our
people need Instead of making It hard
for them to do so."
