s8btSlt seems odd that the long centuries
Of progress in human enlightenment
and the great continual II advance in
science have had so little effect on the
individual that he is still born with
the same savage, unframed nature, the
same unmodided passions and in
5stincts as the aboriginal man Of the
desert or wilderness, and that 1t is only
his surrounding and the circumstances
ct his birth that change him and de-
yelop him into a refined, intelligent
being or leave him an untutored saw
age, says the New York Tribune. The
child Of the most intellectual couple in
the universe If taken at his birth and
placed in a family of ignorant, de-
graded beings would grow up not one
whit better than his foster brothers
and sisters, while the generations Of
culture which distinguished his fore
bears would leave no appreciable
marks upon his character; that is, he
would be no more likely to rise SUI
perior to his surroundings than would
any one Of his associates. Ef4.Sr. q:
4 It Is curious, too, that man alone
seems unaffected by the development
of his propgenitors; and that the low
er animals should retain the evidences
of their pedigree under new and favor
able conditions, while a human being,
gifted presumably with soul, will ex-
hibit no trait that entirely distin-
guishes him from his fellows. We
must perforce, therefore, come to the
unflattering conclusion that person
ally we have no individuality; that VIC

StCcks-There were average declines
to-day of from / to 2 points among the
leading stocks, including the railways,
while in the case Of Burlington there
was an extreme decline of Az. The
specialties, although showing cOnsid-
cradle strength at one time, made ex-
IRENE declines from the highest that

Ids preferred made an extreme dip OF
from the top while Lackawanna and
Atchison preferred figured for about
21a each. Third Avenue was subject
to violent fluctuations on denials and
reassertions of the story that it had
been acquired in the interest OF the
Metropolitan Traction Company. After
break Of five points, Third Avenue
rallied Is, lost Is points and ended I'M
changed on the day. In the early
trading there was small buying by Lon
don and interests connected with the
steel stocks and also some purchases
of Burlington. Realizing by commits
sion houses sent prices off. Burling-
tons decrease of $4,000 in surplus dur
ing January had a depressing effect on
the railways, being coupled as it was
by realizing in Atchison on the unfa-
vorabe Interpretation given to its jan
uary statement which appeared late
yesterday. The market rallied and
then declined again on talk of the
possibility of tighter call money and
on the circulation of a rumor that the
Americans had sunk German cruiser
at Manila. There was a brisk attack
on values, stop loss orders being I'M
covered and considerable liquidation
was induced. Prices picked up when
it became known that no such dis
turbing Manila advices had been re-
ceived, but speculation became unset
tied again with the renewal of pressure.
Sugar, which showed early strength on
reports Of the acquisition of a rival
company, sold off on the denial. Two
things which in a measure would ac-
count for the weakness of the market
were that London sold in the afternoon
the stock purchased earlier, and that
ewo of the leading interests that had
been prominent on the bull side were
said to be practically out of the market
for the moment and let some stocks
with which they had been identified
shift for themselves. Many million dol
lars worth of American securities sold
by London in previous weeks reached
New York in the past few days, but the
agents of some foreign houses express
ed the opinion that shipments have
practically ceased at least for the pres
ent as sales for foreign account had of
late been largely balanced by Dur-
chases. General weakness marked the
bond trading to-day with the active
issues receding smartly. Total sales
