WOMEN TO BE BARRED.
New York stock Brokers Start
Movement to Exclude Them
from lees.

There is movement among brokers
in New York to exclude women from
their business houses and to deny
them the privilege of speculating in
stocks. Femininity, they say, has
been given fair chance to show it's
adaptability in 1.-The street." and has
failed miserably, reports the New
York Times.
For a long time many brokers have
considered women undesirable patrons
for a multitude of reasons. OF late
the opposition has crystallized, and
several prominent firms have taken a
bold, determined stand to ostracise
those members of the fair sex whose
gaming instinct and desire to get rich
quick prompt them to speculate on
the markets.
The following is a copy of letter
sent out by well-known firm of stock
brokers. 1t shows plainly the attitude
of brokers, and it is not unlike letters
that have been sent out recently by
other firms:
Mrs. -
that in future we shall be unable to afford
you the privilege of calling at our office
on Blank street. We find that some
of our best customers consider it uEdigni-
fled for women to frequent brokers' offices,
and for that reason beg to ask that in fu-
ture you will kindly communicate with us
only by letter or telephone. In this matter
We have used no noGiscrimination. Every wom-
an who has an account or who has done
business with US will receive similar no
tice by the same mail. Yours very truly,
stock Brokers, - Broadway"
"a woman is a nuisance anywhere
outside of her own home, said a we'll
known reputable stock broker to
reporter who called on him at his Of
fee in lower Broadway skyscraper
the other day.
''ln the first place, a brokers' office
is no place for a woman. The average
woman knows little about brokerage.
Business instinct is not innate in the
woman, ordinarily speaking, and,
worse than that, she can't learn. Tell
her all you know about stocks and
market conditions and practices, and
the next day she will ask you the same
thing again.
Another thing: The woman who de-
sires to trade in stocks, knowing moth
ing of them or the business, wants the
broker to become her contidant, to tell
just where and when to buy or sell.
If she makes something out of an in
ycstment made on a brokers' advice,
she gloats over her shrewdness 'on
the street, and the broker gets no
credit whatever. Should she lose, and
every broker must go wrong in predic-
tions once in awhile, then there's the
devil to pay
Brokers say that woman does not
seem to be able to realize that there
is a possibility of losing in speculating
In stocks. Therefore she is what a
gambler would call bad loser" OF
course, there is an occasional woman
who knows the market and its Sinuos-
tiles and is as game" as any man
on the street. But she is mighty

REPORT FROM GEN. KITCHENER

EDWARD AS THEY SURRENDER.
Col. Lynch, NJ. p, to Be Arrested for
Treason if He Returns-Speech by
General De Wet to Beers.

LONDON, June 6-The Birmingham Post,
the organ of Colonial Secretary Chamber
lain, to-day says that, owing to his age
and infirmties, the British government has
waived its claim for the acknowledgment
by Mr.. Kruger of British sovereignty over
the Transvaal and has guaranteed to all
the Boer delegates in Europe a safe con-
duct to their homes in South Africa.
The War ONCE has cabled congratula-
tions to Lord Kitchener on the energy.
skill and patience with which he conducted
the long campaign in South Africa, and has
asked him TO communicate to the troops
the governments profound sense of their
spirit of endurance, bravery and discipline,
and also of their humanity shown through
out the trying period Lord Kitchener re-
piled in behalf of the army in South Africa,
rendering it's sincere thanks for the con-
CALCULATIONS of the government, which, he
was sure. the troops would receive with
great satisfaction.
Lord Kitchener, in a dispatch from Pre-
toria. dated to-day, announced that the
British commissioners in the various dis
tricts report that 1,154 Beers laid down
their arms yesterday. Afterwards the COM
missioners addressed the Beers, who gave
three hearty cheers for King Edward. The
best possible relations exist between the
Beers and the British and there has been
no hitch in the proceedings anywhere.
The colonial secretary, Joseph Chamber
lain. at the opening this afternoon of the
temporary club established here for the
use of the colonial troops who are to at
tend the coronation, said the empire owed
a great debt to the colonies, which had
furnished the motherland with an army in
South Africa larger than the British army
which fought at Waterloo.
a. ]. Balfour, the government leader in
the House of Commons, in a speech at a
Conservative banquet in London tonight
referred to the South African war. He
said the load was only thoroughly realized
now that it had been removed, and that
peace had not been bought by unneces-
sary concessions. He said he could respect
the fighting burghers. but not those who
had deserted the republic II South Africa
The contention of the Liberals, he contin-
ued, that peace might have been secured
a year ago, was untenable because General
Botha then demanded independence
According TO a news agency, Colonel Ar
thur Lynch who fought with the Beers in
South Africa, was elected in November last
to represent Galway in the House of Com
mons, and who, II was announced last
night in a dispatch to the Associated Press
from Paris, had decided to go to London
early next week and attempt to take his
carry out his intention. He will be ar
rested. it is said, on the charge of treason
Immediately after landing in England. A
sharp watch is being kept for Colonel

Sentiment of Boer Chieftains.

LONDON, June I'm a dispatch from
Pretoria the correspondent this afternoon
of the Daily Telegraph gives conversations
with some of the Boer leaders. General
Botha, in speaking with the correspondent,
declared the burghers would observe 10y
ally the terms of the settlement 1t de-
pended, however, said General Botha, on
the administration of affairs for the next
few months whether or not the country
would return to prosperity and lasting
peaceful conditions. Personally, General
Botha said he was confident that every
thing would be done by the authorities to
avoid friction and assist the people.
Judge Hertzog similarly expressed his de-
sire for the effacement of all bitterness be-
twain Briton and Boer and his readiness to
help in the restoration of homes and the
promotion of prosperity in the country I'M
der British rule.
General De Wet, according to the corre-
spondent. appears to be little affected
either physically or mentally, by the cares
of warfare. He said he was going to his
farm to resume work there. Throughout
the war General De Wet has never been
hit once nor has his horse been touched
by bullet, but his adjutant has been twice
wounded and has had six horses killed un-
der him.
