New York. MAY A.--The prices OF stocks
drifted to lower level today in the uncer-
tain and irregular manner which is charac-
terstic OF a dull and undecided market The
dullpess of the market is entirely normal for
this time of the year, when the fate of the
CT ops on which so much depends Is still IN
the balance In present conditions, however.
the market has several unfavorabe factors
to contend with. In the hrst place there Is
evidently hanging over it some large holdings
that were taken on for the purpose of avert
ing a panic and which are offered for rtaii4-

WAS A MYTH.

Thomas Estrada Palma has made
revelation which shows how narrowly
this country escaped serious mistake
in the earlier period of the troubles
with Spain 10 relation to Cuba. He
says that the so-called Cuban junta,
with headquarters ia New York, was a
NY th. lie was himself the whole
junta. The junta was supposed to rep
supposed thai large sums of money and
large quantities Of arms and supplies
were forwarded by it to Cuba, and that
it had extensive connections IN this
aud other countries. Mr.. Palma now
says that all this was a iigment. Mr..
Palma was the junta, it was he who
was extensive, it was he who created
in the newspapers-the Cuban gov
ernmcnt, the liberal contributions, the
successful landing of arms, the gen
erous contri buttons to the Cuban cause,
and kept the Spanish agents on the
hunt to discover the sources of aid in
Europe. This explains why when the
American troops landed they were
wholly unable to find a single trace of
the so.called Cuban republic.
No blame can attach to Mr.. Palma
for his game of deception. He was the
friend of Marti, the original Cuban
patriot and rebel, and he was truly a
Cuban whose heart and soul were EN-.
listed in his country's cause. His con-
fession, however, raises the question
as TO what would have been the posi-
tion Of this country had congress and
the president recognized the mythical
Cuban government rs so many of the
senators and members of the house de-
sired 10 do. 1t was a narrow escape,
and Senator Foster can congratulate
himself that his effort to embarrass
the president failed. -Grand Rapids

FIGHT AGAINST THE TRUSTS.

The great crop OF combinations and
trusts which has grown up during the
past few moths has so startled the
country that antitrust legislation Is
now on everybody's programme. I'm
dismayed by some legal setbacks and
some real injustice In the Arkansas an
THRUST law, Texas is bent upon enact
ing "A similar statute, Notwithstanding
the pleadings OF many business men
and the extremely sweeping character
of the legislation proposed. Missouri
is also on the eve of providing new an
ti-trust legislation, while the demand
for similar enactments In other states
is becoming widespread.
Although some OF the remedies pro-
posed TO Offset the trust EVIL are en-
tirely too radical and even grotesquo,
there is no installing the earnestness
OF the masses of the people in their hos
tility to the combinations and their de-
examinations to regulate them In one
way or another. II local legislation
does not suffice, Congress will surely be
appealed to- and it is difficult to see
how the National Legislature can re-
sist so overwhelming popular de-
maud.
The whole tendancy of the swarm OF
combinations which has been foisted
upon the country is to restrict trade
competition, reduce the number of in
dustrial establishments and exact
higher profits upon the manufacture OF
the necessities and comforts Of the
people. Moreover, most of the trusts
are not open and above board organ
izations. They represent millions OF
dollars OF alleged capital which was
never subscribed, and by conccaling
the extent of their business and other
transactions, deceive people as to the
real value OF their shares.
That the trust evil Is II serious one
must be apparent TO everybody; but il
is equally apparent that 1t is an evil
which eau , OF be overcome by bysteri-
cal legislation. Antitrust laws are
badly needed, but they must be such
laws az will stand the test of constitu-
tionality aud leave no loophole for es-
cape from their penalties.

Religions aud IrreIigious Fishes.

Fishes are supposed to have no reM-
gion. Probably they are greatly malign-
ed in that as well as in other respects
st. Anthony, as you know, used to
preach to them and make their eyes
glitter and their hearts beat by his elo-
quence A Jewish story is told can
not, unfortunately, lay my hands on the
passage just now--of a fish which leaves
the sea on Saturday and does not return
until SUI day, so as to be able to keep
the Sabbath.
Other fishes, unlike their puritanical
brother, do not observe the sacred day.
The Koran gives story of some very
naughty fishes in David's time. Know
ing that the Israelites were forbidden
to catch fish on the Sabbath, the wicked
creatures came out of the Red sea in
unusual numbers and kept in sight of
the people all through the day in order
to tempt them. On the approach of
night they retdrned to the sea again.
In fatal moment some of the Israelites
yielded to the piscine Establishments,
caught several of them and had them
for dinner Whereupon David cursed
the Sabbath breakers, and God, to show
his displeasure. changed them into apes
and pigs. For three days they remained
in this unpleasant condition, when a
violent storm arose and swept them
into the sea.
The fish which brought the tribute
money to our Lord is supposed to have
been a paddock, which had strayed into
the lake of Gennesaret. There are sew
eral legends which tell of miraculous
finds in fishes Paris Messenger.
