Owen p. Kellar, president of the
Christian Endeavcr Union Of the Dis
trict. addresses the following open let
ter. through The Times, to the local En-
deavorers:
Manitou Col, July Is.
To the Christian Endeavorers OF the
District of Columbia:
Dear Fellow Endeavorers: From the
foot of Pixies Peak I want to send you a
special message. wish l could give
you some of the inspiration which re-
ceived at the great Denver convention
The forward movement in Christian En-
deavor has been given a mighty impetus
by this convention. More than 1000 new
Christian Endeavor societies have been
organized In the past eight months. and
thousands of societies have gained 10
per cent or more In membership as
result of the extension campaign. And
the campaign has only just begun. Even
greater things are to be accomplished
in the future. More new societies are
10 be organized and more new members
are to be brought into the societies
which are already organized. More ac-
tive and effective work for Christ and
the Church is to be done in the future
than ever before.

per cent. In the local traction group.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit advanced ~

Exceptional weakness was SHOWN In

ferred. North American, and Missouri.
Kansas and Texas preferred. Fractional
reactions followed the extreme high

at the concessions and the speculation
shows more confidence than in some
time. London was buyer. but the news
OF the day was without much signif-
canoe. Government bonds unchanged;
railroads bonds firmer.
NEW YORK, July 22.-London houses
were inclined to buy freely early but
this market rallied too quickly for them
on the advance. London was inclined
to sell a little. Its business for the day
amounts to 10000 or 5000 shares bought
on balance. The tenor of the general
market has been remarkably even.

Sympathy With Those Dismissed.

Three telegraph operators employed
In the general Offices of the Southern
Railway were discharged this morning
and seven others quit work in sympathy
with the men who were let out
B. NJ Hartsock. manager Of the local
office. was given a leave Of two months.
He was a favor!te with the telegraphers
who worked under him. A rumor that
the leave granted 10 Hsrtsock was vir-
tually a discharge, caused dissension in
the Office.
Three telagrsphers received notices
this morning from Charles A. Derlton,
superintendent OF telegraph. stating that
their designations mad been accepted.
The men had not resigned, and were
greatly surprised at receiving the no
tees.
When they left the Office. four other
operators walked out with them. and
three additional men are said to have
left since.
The telegraphers in the employ OF the
Southern are not organized. Only one
of the men who struck is a member OF
a union

most of which were American. promoted
a confidence In local circles that was
early manifested IN the character of
the buying. Estimates for receipts at

scheduled. were only about a quarter of
last years figures. Weather conditions

At noon the market was quieter, but
steady to Arm, with prices close to the
top notch OF the first hour. The South
ana Europe sent supporting orders, and
the commission houses picked up mod
crate amounts OF the distant months.
There was little cotton for sale on the
rise, and sentiment seemed less bearish
than OF late. The Improvement IN the
stock market added to the better feel

NEW YORK. July 22.-11 a. m.-The
stock market was favorably influenced
ut the start by the strength shown by
London in face of decided weakness in
New York speculation late yesterday
afternoon. The local situation received
substantial support at the start and
vigorous drive was made against the
short interest, which conveyed with some
evidence Of urgency. st. Paul advanced

WORDS TO CHEER ON
CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR
Open Letter to the District Union From It's Pres
ident.

In this grand work in this campaign
for expansion the Endeavorers of the
District of Columbia should have a very
large part In every society the mem
bers should be actively at work. Let
every Endeavorer find something to do,
some definite work, no matter how
small. Do some little thing each week,
each day, II possible. What you do does
not matter so much as that you keep
doing something
To help US in our work and to arouse
our enthusiasm let US take the hymn
entitled Forward" as our marching
song. 1t is No las in the new Endeavor
Hymnai Let every Endeavorer learn
Il: learn all the verses; and In every So
clety spend FIVE minutes at the begin
ming Of each prayer meeting singing this
hymn. until all the members are per-
fectly familiar with both words and mu-
sic. II not Inappropriate to the topic,
sing IL at the close OF each meeting. Let
us make 1t our watchword for the flu
ture
Forward Forward IT'S the Lords command.
Forward, Forward 10 the promised land.
Forward Forward! let the chorus ring.
We are sure 10 win with Christ our Kingl
Faithfully yours.

STUBBORN FIGHT
ON CANAL TREATY
Only Three Weeks Remain
for Its Ratification.
VARIOUS CAUSES OF DELAY
Colombian Radicals Oppose 1t for Poll
tical Reasons-Jingo Element Fear
full of Too Much Restriction.

Mail advices received from Colombia
today indicate that there is still bitter
struggle in the Colombian congress over
the ratification Of the Panama Canal
treaty. although the general situation
seems more favorable to ratification
than 1t has been heretofore
There remains now but three weeks
in which the treaty must be ratified by
the Colombian congress IL It is to go
through. since it is provided that the
treaty must be signed by both parties
by September %. The consular regula-
lions allow Americans of the consular
service thirty-fve days for the trip from
hero to Bosota, and the shortest time
in which a mail communication from
Colombia to the United States may reach
its destination is twenty-five days.
which, however. Is exceptional, the
usual time being thirty days. Allowing
for delays on account of failure of con-
nection, or for other reasons, the treaty
should be ratified and sent out from
Colon by August is.
Technical Points Debated.
Up to the present time. while the dis
cusslon of the treaty in the Colombian
congress has been lively. and often bit
ter. it has been confined chiefly to tech
meal questions, while there has been no
apparent attempt to get at the bottom
OF the matter by the members.
For instance, a heated debate occurred
over the failure of the Colombian Presi-
IL - HafN h ar.f
II to congress. In Colombia members OF
the cabinet may come before congress
when 1t is discussing a question that
relates to them. and Mr.. Rico. the sec
rotary OF state, had 10 appear and make
a long speech IN which he assured con-
gress that the President Endorsed the
treaty most heartily before the techni-
cal discussion as to the necessity OF his
signature could be brought to an end.
Owing TO the fact that the different
attacks on the treaty by those opposed
TO its ratification are not on party lines
the situation is exceedingly complicated
in the Colombian congress.
Opposition of Radicals.
In the first place the Radical party
the party that was defeated in the recent
revolution. is opposed to the treaty be-
cause of the large amount of money Il
will put In the hands OF the govern
ment. 1t feels that with so much cast
| in the hands of its enemies its chances
OF overthrowing the government, as II
always hopes to do, will be almost en-
| tircly destroyed. While il has no rep
resentatives in Congress It's influence /.
| said to be very strong as a preventive
force.
| In addition to the Radicals. there II
the genuine lingo element, which think
the sovereignty of Colombia will be TOT
greatly restricted by the canal treaty
particularly because OF the provision
for joint tribunals and American trl
bunals which will have Jurisdiction owe
! all law cases arising within the Zon
contained in the canal grant.
Germany's alleged opposition, on &C
count of the loss her Pacific trade viii
sustain by the construction, and the op
position Of the railroads are also play
ing an important part in the struggle.
