THE Gar of Russia is quoted as
saying that if Emperor William, of
Germany, wants to do some "pulyer-
izing" he is ready for him. If the
head-strong German Emperor wants
to go into the ''pulverizing business
he will find all Europe waiting with
a chip on it's shoulder.

by the wheat and corn crowd; For ewo or
three days the local scalping trade have pl aged
for break In prices, and while creating a short
interest failed TO depress prices 10 any extent.
The chief obstacle appeared to be firm and an
advancing grain market. When large receipts of
5000 hogs this morning failed to break prices
at the yards and packers showed disposition
TO continue buying of ribs there was an alarm
among the shorts Then the grain markets
made a quick bulge, and this started the scalp
ers to cover. Breakers for Armour, Cudshy
and other packers helped the buying along.
Mitchell and others, from the grain trade,
bought pork for an advance. Altogether the ex-
element was intense and prices went up shar Jly.
The advance amounted TO Ago In pork and zoe

markets weakened, there was set back in pro-

strength and higher prices. The market was
active in spots, and the early b3ar mauipula-
ton of CHANGERS increased the interest in Rich
mond and West Point securities, owing TO the
ray of hope offered by the Strong Thomas
plan, which resulted in sharp advance In the
stocks of the company, and the squirt among
coal shares in the afternoon, were the principal
features of the day. The opening prices, under
the influence of further demand from foreigners
and shorts, were all from 18lQ13 per cent. better
than the finals of last night, and further i'm
provement was made during the first hour,
which brought prices up 70 the level which was
IN but few cases surpassed during the rest Of
the day. A check was given TO the advance by
a drive at Changers in which both ST. Paul and
Rock Island were specially prominent for weak
ness; but the limit OF this was reached. The en-

necessarily slow for the remainder of the day.

Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-04-24
SCIENTIFIC IDIOCY,

The gifted italian, Prof. Lombroso, who
is engaged in upsetting all previous beliefs
about the nervous sensibility and fine
mental organization of woman, has CON-
mitted the fatal error of proving too much.
Having first demonstrated to his own sat
isfaction that the sensibility of the female
sex to pain is less than in the male sex, he
comes out with an explanation Of the dis
proportion of female to male criminals.
This, he remarks; is due to the inferior
intelligence Of women, the criminal i'm
pulse being more readily developed in a
person of the higher intellectual order.
In this deliverance, the learned Lom-
broso succeeds in ranking his own intelli-
gence more clearly than that of woman.
Perhaps the penitentiaries and jails are
collections of unrecognized talent. Pos
sibly crime increases as intelligence grows.
But when we come to sociological asser-
ton which leads to the conclusion that the
truly virtuous and law-abiding communi-
ties must be sought among the most ignor-
ant savages, we must respectfully decline
to accept it and all the theories built upon
it, even including the dogma of the pro-
found Italian school, which takes the in
tellectual inferiority of women for granted
Even supposing that the remarkable theory
of the intelligence of criminals was to be
accepted, the women can retort crush
ingly upon Prof. Lombroso. He builds
his conclusion upon the statistics Of crimes
that are detected; and the women may
point to that fact as an evidence of the
superior cIeverness with which women
conceal their misdeeds.
The italian savant might as well abandon
his work of showing the insensate inferi-
ority of the female sex. He has already
sufficiently displayed his own intellectual
rank by writing himself down an ass
Upon his own theory, we may rest assured
that Prof. Lombroso will never commit
any worse crimes than those against scien-
titic reasoning in his essays on women.

THE LICENSE WORK.

The Judges of the License Court yester-
day handed down the results of their five
weeks labor, which completes their task
except as regards seven cases, which are
held for further hearings. The Judges have
investigated l, ,77 applications, of which 3S9
were granted in Pittsburg, 121 in Allie
ghenv, 1t3 in the borouCi1s and townships
and 12S wholesale licenses. The work has
been an eXacting one, and while exception
may be taken to the details, no one will
dispute that it has been performed with
thoToughness and patient care. The re-
suit shows a comparatively slight decrease
In the retail licenses and a rather sharp
cut in the wholesale list; but it was
evidently the Judgment of the Court that
it was impolitic to try to hold the list down
to the narrow totals established in some of
the preceding years.
Parenthetically, might not the fact that
two of the Judges of our courts have been
occupied for five weeks in investigating
the character of saloon keepers convey a
suggestion that an economy of valuable
time could be effected by making this
