 THE STOCK MARK TIT.
An Enorm ous Amount of Profit Tax

| II
 New York, Dec. 27.-The stock mar ket digested an enormous amount o Iprofit-taking sales to-day. The se heavy offerings were not without effect CT
 prices, and, in fact there was a period
 of very general reaction. But like yes. | terday, the market again demonstrated | it's marvellous recuperative power and
 the speculative enthusiasm was shifted into new quarters, where the buying
 was resumed with unabated confidence l The movement of prices was not wide at any time, and the large volume of ! business was accomplished without | much disturbance to values. In certain | stocks, however, the price range was very wide, though the net change is
 quite unimportant. In this list were stocks which yielded sharply to the profit-taking movement and then recov- cred strongly in sympathy with the strength which developed at new points.
 The grangers and the Paciflcs are ex-
 amples.
 The distinguishing feature of the
 days trading was the development of aggressive strength in a large group of HOW pElCtu SbOCkS, DOlI III tHt IdIiIOdu and miscellaneous department. The ad- vance in Denver and Rio Grande com mon gave the cue for this movement
 The strength in the Rio Grande stock and the large amount of the absorption gave rise to the conjecture that pro- cess had commenced of transfuso,i If interest between railroad companies in that region looking to a settlement of obstinate rate problems, similar to the exchange of holdings which has occur red between railroads in other regions. After Denver and Rio Grande had risen 3H points there were successive re- sponses in Iowa Central, Norfolk and Western, Fort Worth and Rio Grande, the Wabash stocks, United States Leather, Hooking Coal, North Amerl- can, Reading second preferred, Mexi- can Central, Ann Arbor and Ontario and Western of from 1 to 3Ss per cent, This diversion of speculative activity from high-priced dividend paying stocks to low-priced stocks is quite usual accompaniment of long-sustain- ed bull movement, the theory being that the low w-priced stocks are entitled to a rise to adjust their values to the dividend payers. There is also the ad- ditional argument that the low-priced stocks are safer to hold on margin, as the margin represents in some eases nearly the full value of the stock
 There was an opening rush to buy Peoples Gas, which made the price 110 3% above last night. Although 1t fell back nearly 3 points, it was well sus- tained at the lower level and closed with q net gain of 12 on the strength of the reports of Vanderbilt acquire- ment of the stock. Sugar was very feyerish over a wide range, rallying very strongly after an early decline and closing with a net gain of 314. St. Paul up in the late dealings pretty near to Al.
 Uneasiness over the money market was again allayed by the abundant funds offering on call, which carried the rate down to Az in the late dealings This was an influential factor in rally ing the market, and the bears who sold freely in the early trading covered

LIVED THREE WEEKS.
With a Bullet in His Brain

 Central Village, Dec. 27. - Fra ink Brown, the sky ysar-old colored boy who was shot by his cousin, Willis Lambert, alias Newpo~t, alias Brown, Jagged fifteen years, on December ,, died at the Putnam hospital this morning. The surgeons had been unable to To- cate the bullet although they hGd tried several times to do so. As the boy con- tinued to live so long it was thought that very likely he would recover per- manently.
 A day or two ago inflammation set in and death followed An autopsy will be performed this afternoon at the hos pital to see where the ball Is, and then the remains will be brought to this place for burial,
 The charge against Lambert will be changed to manslaughter. The boy is now in jail awaiting trial on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon.

END OF THE BoER WAR.

British conquest of the South African
Republics has been achieved. The news
from the seat of war leaves little to ex-
pect except the flight OF President Kruger
and such of his compatrios as, having
reason to fear harsh judgment from the
conquerors, can escape capture. We
think in such crisis the sympathies Of

of the most gallant defences, against the
invasion OF their country, Of which his
tory makes record. Tue conquerors
could afford to be generous, but Britain
has never been generous conqneror.
Cronje is in exile-a prisoner OF war at
st. Helena. Il is possible that he may
be released quickly after the war is over,
being soldier who surrendered after
one OF the most remarkable defences OF a
military post, but it is not probable.

PROFESSION VS.. PRACTICE.

We believe now, and we have always
so believed, that the right OF the major
ity to govern N party, as well as against
parties, is unquestioned. That is just
what we stanI for today and that is what
we stood for on May 8, 1925. The re-
fusal OF four men on that day to permit
the majority of fifteen to elect a United
States Senator is not to be forgotten. We
do not ask any Republican to sink lis
personal preferences for any other man
who is a Republican, but We do object to
being held against wall and told that
we must endorse the act OF that one man
who set aside all party rights and who
ignored completely the right of the Re-
publican majority in the General Assem-
bly, of 1895 to select Senator-The
Morning News, January
Belief settles nothing. 1t is possible
for men to believe what other folks

to nothing unless it is backed up by
acts consistent with the statement. 1t
is just here that the Morning News
fails.
Stating its unchanging belief in the
right of rnsjorities to rule in parties, and
against parties, it complains that on
May 8, 1895, four members of the State
Assembly refused to vote with fifteen
other members OF that body for the elec-
tion Of United States Senator. That
