LADY HENRY SomERsEr,s CAREER

NeW York Press: The petitions that
have been lodged in Bridish courts
asking for an injunction restraining
Lady Henry Somerset from shutting up
the liquor saloons in buildings owned
by her, constitute notable tribute to
the zeal aDd sef-sacrifice which have
distinguished that lady's devotion to
the cause of temperance. The fact
that these proceedings are brought by
the trustees of Lady Somerset's estate
indicates fear on their part that her
action is likely TO make serious inroads
into her income and fortune This
will deepen public respect still furthur
for the eminent lady. Lady Somel-
sets career as temperance reformer
has been remarkable one. She pos
sesses wealth; she is endowed with rare
intellectual gifts; she occupies high
social position. All these advantages
she has unselfishly and untiringlv en-
ployed against one of the most debas-
ing and destructive habits that beset
the human race. 1t is an interesting
circumstance that the temperance
cause is indebted to the example and
teachings of an American woman, Miss
Frances +. Willard, for the services OF
Lady Somerset

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Three- quarters of the
days business on the Stock exchange was
done in Sugar and Distilling which Were
about equally prominent in the transactions,
the one being strong as the other was heavy.
News from Washington was to the effect That
the senate finance sub committee had agreed
ugon duty of / cent on refined. and Is cent
on raw sugars. This favorable report led to
heavy buying movement which was supple
mented by purchases by the shorts, 10 cover
their outstanding lines, and as consequence,
prices moved up sharply, the common max
ing gain of 2}s per cent, of which II per cent
had been lost at the close. The preferred rose
IA per. cent, closing at the highest figures
touched. The depression in the shares Of the
DStilling company was due to the announce
ment of the Sugar duty being placed as pro-
posed that no increase in the spirits tax, as
if it We're increased, the revenues of the
government would be raised to an amount
greater than its Necessities. The first break
in the stock was caused by heavy selling for
the western account, mainly for Chicago, and
this was followed by a bear raid which sent
quotations down steadily almost to the close,
when decline of 81 per cent had been ef-
fected, of which only Il per cent was recovered
in the final sales Lead was sold down 25s
per cent, preferred. and per cent for the COM
mon, on reports that white lead is to be put
on the free list.
The speculation in the rest Of the list was
sluggish and devoid of interest. During the
week the market has been irregular and the
closing prices show about as many declines as
advances. The railway stocks and miscellan-
eous bond market was generally firm. The
total sales of stocks today were Us, 600 shares,
