-.Satfo Retveeu Men and Women


Prof. w. K. Brooks, Of Baltimore. has
discovered that favorable environment
tends to produce an excess Of females
among animals and plants. and an unfa-
vorable environment an excess Of males.
If this be true, race or species which Is
on the point of extinction should have an
excess Of males.
The population Of Australia consists Of
q small and decreasing number of aborig
ines, and q prosperous and increasing pop
ulation Of foreign settlers and their de-
scendants, amounting in all to nearly
5000, 900 persons. As the native popula-
ZION is rapidly disappearing. we should
expect to find the males more numerous
among them as compared with the fe-
males than among the inhabitants Of for
eign origin. provided other conditions are
equal. For each 100 females there were In
Victoria OF native born Australians 100 210
males, and Of foreigners, exclusive Of
Chinese, 1879 lilo males The ratio Of
males 70 females In the population Of for
eign origin is therefore very much greater
than it would be If it depended upon the
birth rate alone; and as this modifying In
huence does not affect the aborigines. an
excess of males among them, no greater,
or even q little less, than that found
among the inhabitants OF foreign origin,
would indicate that the excess Of male
births is much greater among them than
among the people OF foreign origin: Com
putation shows that the excess OF males
among the eborigines is, Notwithstanding
these neutralizing influences, very much
greater than it is among the foreign pop
ulatfon.
For all Australia there are 143. % abo-
r1ginal males TO each 100 females; there
are only 1854 males of foreign descent
to each 100 females, Notwithstanding the
fact that 129 males settled in these colo

CHICAGO. June 1S.-Fifteen minutes be-
fore the close of the regular session July
wheat was Size. the closing price on Sat
urday. The fact that there had been two
sharp declines, for good reasons, early IN
the day, and each time rally to point
better than Saturdays closing, indicated
no very soft market, whatever may be in
store for the future. One operator who
sold the bulk of his wheat at much higher
prices showed his hand by changing,
it is estimated, 100000 bushels
from July to August to-day. The
offering of the July together with the COM
ing out of long country wheat caused the
declines. Aside from this there was quite
as good local buying as selling and lIQulda-
ton was at least checked. Prices ranged
as follows: July opened at Sic, sold at S0$l
@Sl%c early and later between 81 1s061Sc
and steady at the later figure near the
close.
In corn, as in wheat, the sellers of last
week were the buyers today, while the
market opened surprisingly weak, the
large lines of property which were
expected to come out on stop
orders were not sacrificed. After mon
etary break to 4915c at the start, July i'm
proved to 51Ac and kept fairly steady
around SOC when it closed.
Oats were fairly firm after the opening
and the closing price for July was as on
Saturday 321lc. The range was BIG to
32$Sc. There was fair business in pork
and prices advanced 1719c to 2215c, the
closing prices at almost outside prices and
at 1215c above the last sal es Saturday
