During the cold weather last week
woman seated at the corner OF Second
and River streets, turning the crank OF
all organette, attracted the attention and
many dollars from tho charitable passers
y. At one time the freezing north winds
blow at the rate OF 30 miles per hour, but
the woman sat at her post for several
hours, constantly turning the handle Of
the organette. She crouched over the
instrument, with head bent down and
face 80 concealed that the features could
not be plainly seen. When piece OF
money was dropped into her box she said
not q word. Such an exhibition should
not be allowed. II the woman belongs
to Alpena, and Is 30 reduced In circum-
stances, the city is able to assist her, and
II she belongs to any other city, there is
where she should DO taken care OF. A
woman, sitting on a street corner amid a
cold, raging winter blast, is blot on civ
ilization. The officials made enquiries
regarding her, but were unable to find out
where she belongs, and 1t Is thought she
Is professional mendicant.

Might Flock Together.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Concerning the large hats worn by the
women at our theaters q say women, be-
cause ladies do not wear them), I am glad
you have taken hold of the subject. Would
It not lie a good idea to induce our theatri-
cal managers to have, say, the first eight
rows of the orchestra chairs and the first
five rows Of the orchestra circle and the
first three rows of the balcony reserved
and sold to men only" and for men only,
RELOCATING the big hats and feathers and
ribbons a foot high to all the back seats
upstairs and down. Then they would all
be together and would interfere with no.
body. True, they could not be well seen
and admired and 'cussed," but we don't go
to our places of amusement to see ultra
style hats. The managers ought not to hes
itate to agree, for they really guarantee to
give everybody a seat from which the
stage can be seen, and no woman has a
right to set up a screen in front of the per-
son behind her. Whenever l see a woman
at a theater wearing a big hat 1 set her
down as a snob, destitute of good manners
and good breeding. f. c. c.

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, October 29.-Few arguments
have worn as well and given as general
satisfaction as those based on the inside
knowledge of the anthracite coal situation
forced into publicity at last Thursdays
inharmonious meeting of the sales agents.
The decline inaugurated during the progress
of that meeting was resumed this mornlag
without the slightest indication that lapse
of time or frequent using had detracted
from the effectiveness of the incentive
support Is lacking In almost every instance
except such as is desired from the covering
of shorts. There are evidences OF liquida-
ton, but not of sufficient amounts to fulfill
the predictions of the bear party, consider
ing the extent of the decline.
The usual rumors that Jersey Central
would be forced to reduce Its dividend
next month. as earnings would seemingly
justify, were freely circulated and as free
ly denied by officials of the company.
Delaware and Hudson sold down per
cent, but with some show Of resistance at
the start, due mainly to covering Lacka-
wanna, lost 3 per cent on sales of 100
share lots by the room element.
Reading was dull and strong, fract'"nally
In advapce of first prices. The cou- 5 to-
the latter company.
Lake Shore was weak at a per cent re-
duction, due to short selling, and North
west yielded to similar treatment for loss
of "a per cent.
Burlington reported q large decrease in
surplus for September, selling off 1 per cent
in consequence. The report was not sur
pr1sing, the room having been bearish on
this stock for some days past The balance
OF the regular list was dull, but In SYM
pathy with decline so pronounced at every
point of activity
Sugar was trlne more active than at the
close Of last week, selling off "a per cent on
early trading and advancing IN later tradiMS
6-S of point in advance of first prices.
The last hours trading was confined large
ly to the coal stocks, resulting in lower
prices and an extension of the snort interest.
