The market was better today than was
expected after the weak close yesterday.
Some stocks were able TO show an ad-
vance. fractionally, in the morning hours
and the entire list failed to go off TO any
extent. The reaction of yesterday ceem-
ed to have satisfied the bears for the mo-
ment. The Street has not changed its
mind on the Presidents message. 1t is
not pleasing entirely to any of the mar
ket critics and some express themselves
as much disappointed. This feeling, with
the already much over-bought condition
OF the market, will undoubtedly result in
considerably lower prices within the next
few days This is the almost universal
opinion of the Street.

the action of the Sugar people would be

some inkling of the intentions of the di-
rectors was learned. The Street generally
believed that the dividend would be de-

The advices to buy Chesapeake and
Ohio are still numerous and the action Of
the stock during the last few days has
been most encouraging. The business Of
this road is largely similar to that of
Southern and Louisville and Nashville,
and to an extent 1t is fed by the latter
from the South. There is a belief that
the long-mooted deal between Chesapeake
and Ohio and the three C's road is to go
through in a short time This deal would
have good effect on both properties un-
doubtedly.

New York, Dec 6.-The stock market in

Best Of All Baths.

1.-THE best Of an baths is the tepid
bath" says Ruth Ashmore in the No
rember Ladies Home journal. I'VE
hear wonderful stories Of English
girls breaking the ice to jump into
their baths. | have known great
many English girls with beautiful
compilations who took their baths as
regularly as they did anyone of their
meals, and their appetites were I'M
usually good. Every one of them
took tepid soap bath, and IT she
rad no means of having shower she
gave one to herself by pouring water
over all parts of her body, changing
the temperature Of this shower so
that from tepid 1T became almost
,ool, but never icy cold. Having
chosen your bath you must remem-
Der that good rubbing is a part Of
It. The bath that leaves you weak
sned is useless--indeed, dangerous
whereas the bath that strengthens
you, and makes you feel full OF life
Ind vitality, is the one you weed. All
The creams that were ever made, all
the powders that were ever ground
up, and all the liquid beautifers that
ever existed as untruths, will not do
,ne-thousandth as much toward maxi
ing a girls complexion good as the
proper observance of the bath and
the regular taking of exercise"

The United States New Lands.

The acceptance Of the United
States terms by the Spanish peace
commissioners not only ends the wal
but adds new territory to the pos
sessions Of this nation. 1t also
brings new obligations and new linan.
cial questions to be settled.
We have already explained the orr
gin and nature OF the so.called Cuban
debt, which the Spanish government
desired to saddle upon either that
island or the United States. 1t Is
perfectly clear, we believe, to all in
formed and impartial minds that that
debt is properly Cuban and is not
properly to be charged against Cuba
or against any one but the govern
ment Of Peninsular Spain at Madrid,
by which and for which il was con-
tracted. 1t will now be pertinent to
consider in like manner the so-called
Philippine debt, which has become a
later matter Of contention in the
peace negotiations at Paris.
Down to three years or even less
ago the Philippines were sort OF
crown colony Of Spain. They had no
representation in the Cortes at

The REFLECTOR has already noted
the reduction OF interest rates in this
vicinity and some more good evidence
comes from Topeka. One Of the lead
Ing financial men Of Topeka said yes
terday: "As soon as the result in
Kansas became known the North
western Life Insurance company Of
Milwaukee authorized its agents in
Kansas to loan money in large sums
at per cent and in small sums at 6
per cent | represent an insurance
company in Connecticut and when !
wired the propositions being made by
the Wisconsin people, my company
authorized me to place money at the
same rates, and every other company
doing business here will have to fol-
low. Hitherto, money has been 60
ing in Kansas at 6, I and 8 per cent,
and per cent is at least per cent
lower than 1t has ever before been
known. As a matter OF fact the big
eastern capitalists have not been try
ing to do business in Kansas during
the past two years. The Populists
have been threatening all sorts Of
things against capital, and while we
fellows In Kansas knew that the Pop
ulist bark was worse than the Popu-
list bite, we could not convince the
Fasteners OF that fact Fortunately.
Kansas had great deal Of local
money and did not feel the absence Of
foreign capital as otherwise she might
have done, but the doors are open
now and any amount Of cash will seek
placement in the State. This lower.
ing Of interest ought to convince the
Kansas people Of financial fact that
they seemingly have been ignorant
Of The charges for the use Of money
are fixed by a higher law than the
enactment OF any legislature, and at
tempts to influence this class Of bust
ness in an unnatural way usually re-
act against the borrowing people"

Mind and Pocketbook

The United States Investor, lead
ing investment journal, speaking o.
the Kansas election notes that the
most interesting thing about the elec'
ton is that the farmers vote did it.
1t says: II this were a psychological
journal much stress might be laid on
the relation Of the pocket.book to the
mind. The farmers have been about
the most prosperous class in the com.
munity during the last two years,
and they are the first Of the free sill
verites to abandon their heresy.
We suspect that there is an impor.
tant point right here. The world is
full Of would-be reformers, who aim
to usher in the millennium tomorrow.
1t looks, however, as il the average
person were content to let well enough
alone. II he can hold his own against
changing conditions-even II he does
not make slight improvement on
his past lot-he is fairly well salts
fed. The cry for free silver did not
spring from any implanted love for
that metal. Gold is all that any one
would have desired to see in circula-
ton excepting. of course, the owners
OF silver mines), had there not arisen
a fear that the supply was not suilici.
ent to maintain the statu quo. Hard
times came on and prices for COM
modties fell. and without knowing
the real cause, the farmers made up
their minds that this was due to a
scarcity OF clrculatlng msdlum. Hence
their clamor for free silver to make
good the shortage. They did not get
free silver. But times improved,
prices rose, and they began to feel
like themselves once more. That is
all they wanted, and having got that
they are ready and willing to forget
all about silver. As a good many
years Of prosperity are apparently in
store for this country, we do not
think the present generation will hear
much more about silver.
