atives of the controlling interests in the
 coalers, leaves no room for doubt that the final decision to strike was a sur prise. Confidence in a favorable out come of the struggle to the benefit of the coal operators continued to be eX- pressed in Wall street to-day. But this could not alter the general impression
 that a prolonged and serious struggle
 Is in prospect It did not need the for mai announcement by President Mitch ell of the purpose of the miners to make
 the strike national mining strike to
 awaken anxiety over the possible exten-
 sion of the labor trouble by sympathy
 into other fields, and especially into
 the bitumnous coal field. The collat- eral effects of such an extension are easy to understand, but difficult to es- 1 innate.
 | The effect upon the iron and steel in-
 dustries, already struggling with scare 1 ity of material of all kinds, would be most notable. The iron and steal stocks shared In the general weakness. Re ports of an advance of four dollars a ton in the price of southern iron rather strangely added to the depression as it is felt that the maintenance of the high level of consumption is dependent upon the sustained steadiness of the prices, , Attention was given also to the esti- mate of the Iron Age that the produc- ing capacity of pig iron for the eoun- try would be increased 900 tons this year and 4,000,000 tons by the end of 1903.
 The wet weather in the northwest re- tarded the seeding of the crops, and this may have been a depressing influence, although the weakness in the corn mar ket should have been fair offset. Tn spite of the weeks reports of large movements of cash towards New York, the preliminary estimates to-day from the known movements of money indi- cate a gain of only about a million dol lars after allowing for the absorption by sub-tressury operations. There is the usual mystery about the effect of the weeks shifting of loans on the loan account of the banks themselves. There has been undoubtedly great extension of credits in the foreign markets, but it is not clear whether the local liquda tions in the stock market have gone to the repayment of loans to the banks themselves or to the trust companies The market closed inanimate at about the lowest

THE STOCK MARKET.
Lack of Any Supporting Demand,

| New York, May 16,-The conspicuous feature of to-days weak stock market
 was the entire lack of any supporting
 demand at any stage of the decline.
 Even the room shorts, who almost in-
 variab bly, cover short contracts at the
 end of day of declining prices, show ed no solicitude about covering, and the market seemed entirely to lack re- siliency. The liquidation was not heavy, but such as it was was very general general.
 While the decision of the anthracite cause of the weakness, the depression was not confined to the coalers, nor was lit particularly conspicuous there. Reading led the list in point of activity, but, allowing for it's half shares, the sales were but little in excess of those of Union Pacific. The three-point de- cline in Reading was fairly attributa- be to the fact that it has been selected as the representa- tive of recent specu- lative confidence in the coal trade out look.

ADVICE TO CLUBS OF WOMEN

A mysterious rite has decreed that there shall be certain thousands of pa -
 pers manufactured yearly by as many individuals, and read to many more thousands who are formed into societies for the express purpose of encouraging this form of mental and moral exercise. Let us suppose, madam, that you are | asked to prepare paper orwell, on | "Cfrcassian Camels as Assisting Evolu- tion." If this is the very beginning I beg you to say NO" But I fear that is useless advice. You are an unwilling but determined martry You say | Yes" At last you begin to work on your paper. You know nothing about Circassian camels, you know nothing about evolutiors. although yu have heard a hundred papers all around and about evolutions, although you have every book you can find about camels, Circassians and evolution. You pore over encyclopedias and dictionaries, you make voluminous notes and finally you sit down to your little rose wood desk and write and write and write.
 When you day comes you stand up in your best walking gown and hat, and read in half inaudible voice your pa per. Those who can hear wish they couldn't, and those who can't hear wish they could. When it is over all are equally complimentary and congratula- tory. Now, this to you so satisfactory a proceeding is not all that it might be, you will allow, speaking frankly. Let me make my suggestions:
 First-Never write any paper what soeVer.
 Second-If you do, don't be driven into writing a paper upon a subject with which you are not familiar and about which you have not thought much and have not something to say that you think ought to be said.
 Third-Any one can read encyclope- dias and reference books. Only few have the power of original thought. If you have no thought of your own to tell, don't write a paper. And even if you have some thoughts that seem to you to be worth telling, you should be sure that you have the rare power of literary expression before you set your ideas down to read to half dozen in- telligent people.--Woman Home Com paniOn,

 Sometimes Kearney would rig him up with a spar torpedo, and he was l trained to stop at them times and back i away as soon as the spar touched the target.

 "Kearney tried to call him back but you know yourself it wasn't reasonable to expect he'd hear it. Tn another min ute Little Willie had smashed clean through the side of the Lady Mine, and then he came back, innocent and self satisfied, for his sugar.
 Well, you never saw man so crazy with rage as what Kearney was. AL though the thing was entirely his own fault, he laid 1t all to that poor, inoffen- sive beast, and when Little Willie swum up, expectin' to be praised and reward ed as he had a perfect right to, Rear ney yelled: Get away, you lubher!' and give him a kick
 Well. you know Little Willie never had such an insult before, and it knock ed him all in aheap, He looked at HIS reproachful for a minute, and then he turned around on his tail, dignified and deliberate, and put to sea. We never seen him again.
 Now you see what happened to the Kathleen don't you? The whale was a layin' head on the ship when they trun the harpoon into him. He took that for the signal and without stop pin to think he carried out his trainin'.

liant pastor of Temple Emmanuel.

standpoint of the Jewish race.
At the conclusion of his talk Rabbi

his hearers. several of whom respond
ed, and the result was that the meet
ing developed into Il sort of roundta-
BILE discussion. proving an intellectual
treat for all who were present. The
lecture idea is an innovation on the
part of the entertainment committee
and should be encouraged.

New Inspector.

Rock Island river men were discuss
ing yesterday the appointment of
James |. Cary of Lyons. who Will
visit Rock Island this spring as steam
boat boiler Inspector. His appoint
ment was Il surprise. inasmuch as In
spector G.. II. Sherman OF Dubuque
was expected to hold down the job.
1t is said that the latter's appoint
ment 10 succeed Captain Nimrick was
a temporary one. and that he was let
out because ne could not meet the re-
quirement that calls for five years
experience. Mr.. Cary's appointment
is temporary. until the result of the
examinations he recently took at Full
ton become known. But as he has
for the past eight years held the po-
Sition of engineer in the fleet of {.
Lamb d Sons. and fer the past few
seasons has been chief engineer of
the Chauncey Lamb. there is not
much doubt as to the outcome of the
examinations. The office pays a
handsome salary and lasts lifetime.
