IN THE WORLD OF FINANCE
NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, July 2.-Business on the
stock exchange was on a less active scale
to-day but the movement of prices was
decidedly erratic. The distribution of
the transactions was good and the great
animation occurred in the early forenoon.
The features of the speculation were alter
nate bear raids and covering movements
and continued foreign purchases. A
favorable Keynote was struck at the OPEN
ing by higher London prices and under
their influences the local market started
in strong and active. The improving ten.
dency was checked almost immediately
after the opening and the market began
Il retrograde movement on animated
dealings. Large blocks of securities were
thrown over and the bear leaders and
their following sold right and left to en-
phasiZe the break, numerous stop orders
being reached Prices ran off sharply
and in number of the principal shares
the lowest figures lin the present move
ment were recorded. At the lowest
points support was accorded by inside in
terests in various properties and extensive
covering of shorts were noted. The mar
ket quoted down after the first hour and
a better tone became prevalent which was
chiefly due to heavy purchases of stocks
for European account. Some irregularity
developed after midday, but improve
ment again became general after l O'Clock
and eventually decided strength was
manifested, in most cases a contributory
influence late in the day being sagging
tendency iii exchange rates, which effect
ually relieved apprehension caused by the
recent rumors of heavy gold shipments
at the close of the week. The closing was
strong at the best figures of the day.

WORK FOR IDLE MEN.
No. 8 CAMPBELL AVENUE.

In all the great cities of this country
are many thousands of unemployed men:
men who have practical knowledge of
various trades. and who until the coming
of this miserable era of hard times, had
been accustomed to earn sufficient money
with which to support themselves and
their families. There is nothing upon
which TO base present hope of speedy en-
ployment for these men in the trades with
which they are familiar, but it does not
necessarily follow that these unfortu-
nately idle men shall continue to be idle
until our manufacturing Industries now
slumbering are reawakened by the comine
of new Legislative or commercial condi-
tions In every agricultural region of
the United States there is room for many
of these unemployed; in some places the
farmers find it practically impossible to
secure the assistance they need to make
successful crops. 1t is understood, of
course, that agriculture is not universally
popular as an avocation, but the man who
is out of work and who is sincere in his
desire to meet with an opportunity to
earn a living ought not to he over particu-
lar; any honest industry is honorable no
matter how humble it may seem to be
1t may be urged that farm labor is not
attractive that the hours are long and
the life somewhat monotonous If there
was plenty for everybody to do there
would be no improperly in man insist
ing upon his unquestioned right to work
when and where he pleases, but in such
times as these real men will not be too
choice; they will take up farming until
something more nearly to their tastes
turns up; then they can return to their
old trades better off in matters physical
and moral for their agricultural expert
