1.-THE Tribune Fresh Air Fund the first
movement OF the kind in the country. Every
other one here or elsewhere, has been started
after an imitation of this pioneer. The Tribune
cordially welcomes all colaborers in the field;
but without wishing TO depreciate in the least
the work OF others thinks 1t its duty to remind
readers that the Tribune Fresh Air Fund is, SO
far as known, the only one in which absolutely
every dollar contributed by the public goes di-
rectly to the work of sending poor child TO
the country, keeping him there for two weeks
and bringing him back again. Every So insures
such a vacation to at least one child. There
have been years in which, owing 10 the magni-
tude of the operation of the Tribune Fresh Air
Fund such a result was insured by every 81 90
No collectors are ever employed, and all col
lectfons made for il purely voluntary. All
expenses for organization, agents and the gen
erai machinery of the charity are privately de-
frayed by The Tribune itself and by the trus-
tees OF the fund. There are no percentages TO
collectors to come out of the contributions OF
the public, and payments 20 agents mana
gers secretary or others. Every dollar goes
straight to the benefit OF the child. Checks or
money orders may be drawn to the order Of the
Tribune Association by whom prompt acknowl-
edgment viii be made.

NEW YORK. Feb. 2L-Chiefly be-
cause OF the very unfavorable showing
made in Saturdays bank statement the
market opened weak in nearly every
quarter. The dealings were i'm fairly
large volume. and widely distributed.
There were one or two conspicuous ex-
ceptiOns to general tendency OF the mar

common showed an advance OF 5la points
and the second preferred opened points
above closing figures OF Friday.
RumoTs that negotiations involving
control Of the property we're well under
way attended the noteworthy rise in
Frisco stocks. Similar rumors accom-
panied the advance in Hooking Valley.
In the remainder OF the market open
ing declines extending from y 10 l point
we're recorded. Exceptionally weak
features were Southern Pacific. Texas
and Pacific. Amalgamated Copper. Net
