1t is very curious fact that all the

l was asked to speak at a farmers in
stitute the other evening on the subject
of the wifes share. This is talk" of
which | never tire In it / took occa-
sion to speak of the grumbling way in
which some farmers dole out money to
their wives; how the wife often has to
ask and almost beg for what is simply
her own in justice. The next day was
talking with well known manufac-
turer and merchant, in the town, on the
subject. He thought did not overstate
the matter. He said that a farmer and
his wife were in his store trading. No,
mean that the man was trading, and
the wife, or servant or slave, was
standing by. While doing this she
picked out three or four little articles
on the fve-cent counter (only costing
five cents each) and asked her husband
TO let her have them. She pleaded that
she would like them so much. He an
swered, with an oath, ''No, by, you
can't have any money to spend on such
tom-foolery." Webster defines slavery
as having ones will under the control
of another Isn't that woman a slave?
Are there not great many farmers
wives, and town mems wives too, who
are slaves to greater or less extent?
And still suspect that even the man
spoken of above was not really as bad
as his words might indicate. Let us in
charity, while condemning the deed in
strong language, think as well of the
man as possible. Doubtless money
came slowly and hardly to him. Per
haps he was brought up by lord and
master father; or little by little he had
come TO lord it over his mate, until
thoughtlessly, let us hope, not inten
tionally, he had become veritablc
tyrant.

WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.

Thursday, Nov. Up. m
The anthracite coal stocks were the centre Of
speculative interest to-day. They were not the
most active, but they were by all odds the weaKe't
and the largest declines were suffered BY those
which are supposed to be the least liable to
sneculatiye influences Delaware and Hudson
fell and New-Jersey Central per cent, and the
final declines IT, Reading and Lackawauna were
] 5.s per cent. Excepting Delaware and Hudson,
which rallied nearly per cent, these stocks closed
heavy at about their lowest points. The preteXt
for the weakness in the two Delawares was the
publication of the quarterly reports to the State
Railroad Commission, out the losses reported Tor
their leased lines were small and probably mis-
leading The abrupt decline in Delaware and
Hudson cannot be explained by slight falling
of in the earnings for the September quarter OK
the New-York and Canada and the Rensselaer, and
Saratoga lines. 1t is equally incredible that the
selling was chiefly in large part. for the short
account The bear faction has not yet become so
bold that it dares to attack a stock like Della
ware and Hudson, in which the usual
, are tSe decline n this stock
has been caused by sales for the account Of one
of the principal executive officers who has been
identified with the company for many years
The reason for the selling is DOT clear, although
il should not be forgotten that within year new
stock was issued at IS. The increase in the
il is possible that the action of the company IN
fixing low price for the stock was not equally
wise The opportunity for large profits was
likely to be used by some of the large share
holders ,
No one expects a serious conflict between the
coal companies although all restrictions on min.
ing have been removed II free production should
be prolonged there would inevitably be cutting
of prices, but at the moment the condition OF the
trade absolutely precudes anything of this KIND
An open war is as impossible as short selling OF
Delaware and Hudson stock. The employment
of bear brokers TO sell long stock Is always an
easy subterfuge.
Outside Of the coal stocks the market was
heavy and lower. The European news was re-
assuring In the fact that in London there was
a sharp rally in foreign securities, while the Con-
tinentol markets appeared TO be free from DIS
turbance There was effective buying for
European account, however, and it may be doubted
whether Europe has not sold more securiIes
than it has bought In the last few weeks. The
declines in the stocks which have an international
market have been fairly steady. The movement
of prices to-day was nearly uniform, and the
closing was rather weak.
THE DAY IN THE BOND MARKET.
There were no transactions in Government
bonds at the Stock Exchange. Bids for regis
terd As were lowered Ia per cent, but the market
Wrss not weak. The closing quotations were as
