Financial Review.
New York, Aug. 1S-Bradstreet's FL
nancial Review tomorrow will say: A
somewhat easier condition of the money
market has been reflected in stock spec
ulation by the prevalence of a moderate
~ bullish sentiment. The trading has
been narrow and professionals are still
mainly responsible for the activity The
bears have shown some aggressiveness in
connection with the traction stocks,
while bullish tendencies have been most
conspicuously shown in the low-priced
railroad shares of certain industrials.
London has not been factor, though
the financial situation there has i'm
proved. The Bank of England exhibits
good increase in cash and reserves. The
Berlin money market. on the other hand,
is undergoing another slight disturbance
in interest rates. which have advanced
sharply and seem likely to attract gold
from London to the German capital
The weakness of the exchange market
and the favorable character of the July
trade statement tend to keep up an idea
on the part of Wall street that there will
be an autumnal gold influx this year.
Shipments of specie from Australia to San
Francisco are occurring from time to
atively little gold under present financial
and trade conditions can be expected
from abroad, another conclusion being
that Europe will not develop a demand
for our securities. 1t was noted however,
that Louisville & Nashville owed it's rise
this week to an initiative on the part of
London. and some of the international
specialties were bulled there.
1rregularity has prevailed in the indus
trials and specialties. The week began
with break in American Steel & Wire
caused by the fact that synopsis of the
statement presented by the company to
the stock exchange did not come up to
anticipations as to earnings. On the 9TH
err hand, Tennessee Coal developed great
strength and rose to 924 on manpula tion
together with reports that the back dvi-
dends on the preferred stock are to be
adjusted and the common placed on
dividend-paying basis. The tobacco
stocks also rose sharply American SELL
ing up to 1926 and Continental to 5OA on
the statement that the two concerns had
acquired control of the Buchanan & Ly-
all mandatory. Other rather bullish
movements We're seen in various indus
trials, the steel stocks showing some
strength. which, however, they did not
retain. American Smelter was higher on
the report that the strike at its Colo
RADIO establishment had been settled.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit was feature,
breaking to 10Sla on the statement that
there were dissensions in the manage
ment. that President Rossiter was to re-
sign in consequence of the results of his
course during the strike and that the
current net earnings were decidedly adj
verse to any prescriptions about speedy
dividends. At the decline support was,
however, forthcoming, and the price raj

neglect of the physical training is
heritage from the days of the dominee.
when a pupils mind was supposed to
be a hole which was to be crammed
full of dates and a multitude of unre-

If the new crusade results in more
attention being given to physical edu-

served a good purpose and paved the
way for other needed reforms.

Negroes Supplanting White Laborers.

From the Staunton, Va. News.
1t is becoming quite evident to us
that in time all labor at the mines in
this country will be performed by ne
groes, and that whites, no matter of
what nationality, will be crowded out
by them. The tendency is all that way
now. and it is a natural tendency. The
lowest paid labor. if equally efficient,
always supplants the more highly paid.
Negroes are willing to work for less
than the whites, and they can do the
work equally as well. 1t is not a. ques-
ton of sentiment among the mine own
ers, but a question of the pocket.
White miners are resisting the in
PRODUCTION of negro labor just as. at
one time native white miners resisted
the employment of Hungarian and 9TH
ell low-paid Europeans; but as they
failed in the one case, they will fail in
the other.

HIS SINS FOUND HIM OUT.
The Checkered Career OF n Man Who
Founded a Bogus Diamond
Mine in Arizona.

st saw a reference the other day to
the great Arizona diamond field swim
die" said an old jeweler to a New Or
leans Times-Democrat man. ''It was
sprung on the public just 80 years
ago, and I remember the excitement 1t
created. The originator Of the scheme
came from New Orleans. He was a
brilliant man, chemist, geologist and
natural diplomat, but he lacked moral
counterpOise. He and his associates
procured a number of uncut stones
from Holland, and 'salted' a canyon
in the mountain south Of the Gila river.
Then followed the discovery and the
organization of a company and in
few months nearly $500, 900 worth Of
stock was sold. 1t was several years
before the exact character Of the swim
die was developed, and by that time the
affairs Of the company were so con-
fused that nobody cared to undertake
prosecution.
II saw the professor as he was
called, at Ogden, Utah, in 1884, and he
described the whole affair with great
glee. Afterward he was mixed up in
two other shady enterprises One was
a scheme for aging whisky and the
other was a device for refining sugar
by electricity. Both were fakes, but
he made lot Of money out Of them, and
as usual escaped punishment. Il was
the old story, however; he went broke
IN the end and died a few years ago in
the charity ward Of a Chicago hospital
y good deal Of the diamond mine stock
was taken in New Orleans, and I dare
say some Of it is kicking around here
to this day"

Chief Exeeutivo-A RsmsrkabIs
Demonstration By Earuhips.

Philadelphia, Sept 6. - Yesterday
was the big day Of the Grand army en-
campment and President Mckinley in
his drive over the route of the parade
aroused great enthusiasm. From the
fronts Of the building 20 the curb the
people were packed in solid mass and
even breathing was difficult. As q re-
suit Of the crush about 400 men. women
and children were overcome and taken
from the crowd to various hospitals.
President Mckinley and Mayor Ash
bridge were on the reviewing stand
The parade was six hours and ten
minutes IN passing the reviewing stand
and $1,000 men were in line. At the
head Of each organization marched
military bands and drum corps and, as
the veterans moved proudly along the
streets, tremendous applause greeted
them and a sea Of handkerchiefs and
small flags waved in admiration and
welcome.
When the Ohio posts appeared the
aged paraders became wild with en-
thusiasm. One veteran broke ranks
and, standing before his comrades,
shouted: Three cheers for the big
gest man on earth-Maj. William Nc
Kinley, of Ohio" This invitation for
cheers was followed by a mighty roar,
which was echoed and re-echOed among
the spectators for blocks.
As the various posts passed IN review
the president stood smiling and bow
ing and, on numerous occasions, waved
his hand to the most enthusiastic of
the marchers. When the torn battle
flags were dipped in salute he joined in
the applause by clapping his hands.
At z:15 the president boarded the
barge to visit the feet Every vessel IN
the harbOr propelled by steam let its
whistle 60 and this, with the cheers Of
the crowds on shore, made deafening
noise.
The return of the president to the
shore was an inspiring one The
Texas was mOOred furthest up the
river and the presidential party had 20
pass each Of the great vessels On its
return to shore. The river was alive
with craft crowded to their utmost
capacity and a great noise was being
made. As the barge neared the flag
ship, the signal was given to salute,
and six big ships again belched forth
terrific salute. Every man and officer
on the ship stood attention and the
bands added to the din by again play
ing 'fHail to the Chief'' The barge
was stopped while the salute was be
ing fred and after it had ceased the u

for, 1t was not discOuraging, it is as

hopeful view Of the situation. He ad-
mits it is a hard problem, but is conf
dent that with patience and perseTer-
ance it can be solved to the advantage
both Of the FilipinOs and the United
States After hearing all Prof. Sch ur-
man had to say the president concluded
that the existing conditions IN the

When the Filipinos find they have to
deal with the military alone and are
to secure no respite until they uncon-
ditionally surrender, they are likely to

Of the administration. Gen. Otis and

DoGWHTPPIFG DAY.
When Every Boy Is Allowed to Use
a switch in EuEIand-An Old
Custom.

There are parts Of rural England
where they still set aside a day for
whipping dogs
Dog-whipping day is October IS.
Then every boy in the neighborhood is
privileged to arm himself with sticks
and lashes and beat every dog he meets
TO his hearts content. There are dif-
ferent stories as TO the origin Of this
strange custom In Yorkshire tradi-
ton has it that a priest, when going his
rounds many years ago, dropped the
holy water used In communion service.
A dog that happened to be near by
swallowed II, and was promptly
whipped for his gulttony, and in com
memOratiOn Of this event It has been
deemed expedient to thrash the entire
dog family On this day throughout the
succeeding years. In the vicinity Of
Manchester the tale goes that the good
fathers In a certain monastery used to
set platters Of food outside the gates
for the poor pilgrims that infested the
country at certain seasons. On one Oc-
caSiOn a dog, whose stomach was prob
ably empty as any pilgrims ever dare
be. very selfshly ate the food him
self. He was caught IN the lawless act
and was whipped soundly, and his
crime and its punishment have been
visited upon his descendants these
many generations.
