NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, May 1.-The volume of deal
ings fell off again in today's stock mar
ket and the government of prices indicat-
ed much uncertainty and confusion OF
sentiment. The furry in call money to
10 per cent. would go far to explain the
action of the market, but there were
some supplementary causes which con-
fused the action OF the market and no
doubt had something to do with the rise
in the money rate The preparation for
the May disbursements, which are un-
usually heavy this year, was Of course
the primary cause of the construction OF
the money supply. But such demon
stration of instability as that in Internal
tional Power and Il number of other in
dustrials. whose affairs are more or less
shrouded in mystery. yesterday and to-
day, had the inevitable effect of inducing
closer scrutiny of the character Of col
lateral offered for loans. 1t Is not
strange, therefore. in view of the limited
surplus of the banks. that monthly re-
quirements should have sent the money
rate up to 10 per cent. today The rise
in the money market has had the effect
also of easing the foreign exchange mar
ket, carrying it away from the gold ex

newspaper business we have been much
interested in looking over the con-

Texas. News, published April %. 1t is
a Y page issue and is little short of be-
ing a history, in prose, poetry and pic
ture. of the Civil War and of the South
since the war, particularly of Texas
and Dallas. In it's features and its
general appearance the paper would be
i credit to any newspaper office in the
country and its publishers may well
feel proud of it. And it is in the spirit
of the whole paper, of the reunion it
self ana of the new South that the
beautiful female figure on the first page
of the issue is holding up the flag of
the reunited Union.

American Club Women.

During the week a score of special
trains have been flying across the con-
tinent bearing thousands of delegates
to the sixth biennial meeting of the
which began, yesterday, at Los Angeles,
California. Maine is well represented
there; we recorded the departure of
the delegates, a week ago. And so is
every state in the Union, and even
England, France, Italia, Russia, Aus
tralia and other lands beyond the seas
will be represented at this great
gathering. 1t was estimated that full
ly 5000 women would be gathered
there, all full of enthusiasm for the
great club movement and loyalty to
their central organization which they
established a dozen years ago, and
have since kept up with rapidly in
creasing membership. We have not
the latest figures at hand, but the
fourth biennial convention, held at
DtHNci III 1910, SHoNtd tlltil tlie ltuci -
alton included over 200 clubs with a
membership of 100000 women. 1t is
certain that these figures have largely
increased. perhaps nearly doubled, in
the past four years.
Women's clubs are now recognized
as a permanent institution in Ameri-
can life. More than that, they are
recognized as a power for the good of
the home and the community, and the
their appearance have long since died
away. Tho growth of the movement
as indicated above, has been marvel
Gus. By no means. are the clubs con-
fined to cities, for almost every village
of any size now has it's woman's club,
or several of them. organized. perhaps
with different aims, but all seeking the
mental advancement; of. the sex and
the practical use of its 'sinfluence in
matters of public welfare. Just as
everything which has its use is capable
of abuse, so-the woman's club. if it
takes too much of the time and
thought of it's member, may be an in
jury to her home life ana Cause fun-
happiness to those she. loves. ..
There is one grave question 10 come
before the present convention, the
vexed race problem. An amicable and
satisfactory solution will be a most
difficult matter. and some fear it is a
rock upon which the federation will
split. We cannot help wondering what
national federation of mems clubs
would do under similar circumstances
BY the way, the men have never made
an effort toward such a federation and
it is not probable it would be a sue
cess.
