As on several preceding dtys the industrials

for sale at the opening and some large blocks
were thrown on the market, breaking prices at
a rapid rate.
The dealings were attended with considerable
excitement ut times. All of the trust stocks,
with the sole exception Of sugar, which showed
evidence Of support, were marketed without
evident regard to price. Whisky trust was
the leader OF the downward movement and in
the first half hour its price had declined
29 per cent. The other trusts, with the cxcep-
ton of sugar. had declined / to per cent
during the same period. The weakness of the
trusts extended to the whole list, and some of
the railroad stocks were pressed for sale at
intervals. notably Lackawanna and New
England. Toward II o'clock there was some
recovery, but 1t soon disappeared under renewed
selling. The lowest prices of the morning we're
current at the close
The bank statement published about IL
o'clock and which was considered favorable
showing had no apparent influence on the
market. The decline ranged from to per

Russia's Direction to the Hebrew Portion of
Her Population.
TT. tPETRRsBURa, Dec. 1.-THE Russian
senate has promulgated law requiring that
Jewish artisans shall reside only in places
where official boards Of trade exist,
the pretense being that they can thus
be kept more effectively under official rezula-
ton and supervision. Official boards Of trade
exist only in about 10 per cent of the towns
In Russia, and the decree therefore means vast
addition to the misery and oppression under
which the Hebrews already labor Many thous-
ands Of Jewish artisans will be compelled to re-
move from the towns in which they are located
to enter the competition for existence in the
populous centers Of the Jewish pale
The object OF the new law is believed to be to
start the Hebrews to stirring again and drive
them over the frontier, whether other coun-
tries are willing to receive them or not
The partial embargo on emigration
to America had caused cessation of
the rush Of Russian Hebrews to the frontier,
and the Russian authorities. who are anxious
to get rid Of. the Hebrews without abso-
lutely bayoneting them, across the border.
have been much irritated by the change in
affairs. The new law, it Is expected, will
start them to moving again, and by being
driven from one town to another they will be
carried into exile. What becomes Of them
after they cross the border the Russian authori-
ties do not concern themselves about 1t.

AN OCEAN RACE BEGUN


FOR THE RELIEF OF LABOR.
Many Remedies Approved by the Feder~.
tion at Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17.-Today being ex-
pected to close the sessions Of the twelfth an
nual convention Of the American Federation OF
Labor, the delegates were called together at 8
O'Clock, with large amount Of business await
ing their disposal.
Resolutions we're adopted calling on all local
unions affiliated with the federation to join
central labor bodies holding charters from the
federation; condemning the Rock Island r. R.
system for requiring its telegraph operators to
withdraw from their organization; asking that
sailors be included under the pro-
condemntng the system Of advance wages to
sailors; favoring changes in the patent laws so
that inventors will receive direct reward; con-
demning the Baron Hirsch fund and its charita-
bly, assisted recipients and demanding re-
striction Of immigration; condemning the sys-
tenn compelling walters to shave off their mus
taches and favoring the eight-hour system for
them.
A resolution was unanimously adopted ask
Ing clemency for the imprisoned Chicago anar-
chists, Neebe, Fielding and Schwab.
Delegate Morgan Of Chicago introduced a
substitute for resolution fsvoring government
control OF telegraph and telephone lines Tho
socialtstic element wanted a resolution asking
that the government control all means Of COM
munication, transportation and production.
Morgan insisted on roll call to test the sense
Of the federation on this proposition and the
result was defeat for the socialists by vote
Of l ,628 to SGT.
Even some Of the delegates Of pronounced
soctalistic views voted against the resolution
owing to the indefinite nature OF the demand.
The original resolution was then passed with
an amendment asking government control Of
railroads.
Resolutions reaffirming the previous conven-
tons advocacy Of woman suffrage and asking
for state legislation to protect trade-union
marks were adopted, and various resolutions
asking legislation against the Chinese were
favorably recommended to the next executive
council.
Differences between the socialists and auton-
omtsts were aired when a resolution was re-
ported asking Congress either to pass
legislation compelling the adjustment OF
labor disputes by arbitration, or the sub
mission Of constitutional amendment per-
hitting such legislation. The socialistic repre-
sentatives favored the measure, as a step toward
government control of all production, and
characterized its opponents as anarchists, charg-
ing that they objected to it as they objected to
all governments.
President Gompers and others argued that
compulsory arbitration might prove q danger
Gus weapon against labor interests should II
fall into the hands Of capital.
