AT THE Southern good roads convention held
in New Orleans a few days ago the principal
address was delivered by Mr.. w. H. Moore
president of the National Good Roads Associa-
ton. In the course of his remarks he related
a conversation he had recently with Mr.. John
d. Rockefeller and in answer to the question,
"But how are you spending your money ?"
he said that gentleman replied: ''Well, / am
spending $4,000 day in the South helping
the poor children, to get them school facilities,
school books-and the Ike. Andrew Carnegie
came into my Office the other day to see my
son. Mr.. Carnegie likes him. said to Mr..
Carnegie: You are doing wrong to spend
your millions founding libraries in cities where
all the children have all the educational ad-
vantages they want. Why don't you do as
do, and spend your money helping the schools
and poor children of the South, who have no
educational. facilities p " Mr.. Rockefeller de-
clared that the stories about his stomach being
worn out are pure nonsense. He said that
his stomach is "all right" If his stomach
is half as sound as his head Mr.. Rockefeller is
o be congratulated.

OUTSIDE SECURITIES

The market for outside securities was generally
quiet and while prices in the important iesues dis
played frmness at the start, general reaction set
in before the noon hour and in most instances re-
suited in a loss Of all the early advances The
volume of dealings was comparatively light COM
pared with the recent averages. At no time were
there any signs Of animation. and auctuations
aside from a few Of the speciaIties moved within
narrow limits Northern Securities. after an early

STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.

There was q material falling off in the volume
OF business in yesterdays market, as compared
with the heavy daily transactions Of the last few
weeks. the contraction in business being due to
diminishing public interest in speculation and a
tendency on the part OF substantial market in
1erests and Wall Street traders TO restrict their
operations for the moment owing 10 the recent
serious disturbances in values and 10 a DISPOSE
ton 70 wait until the new year before resuming
az active campaign for higher quotations. Not
wfthstanding the relative dulness prices exhib-
ited considerable strength. due in great part TO
covering Of shorts and cautious buying by
people who apparently believe that purchases at
The current level will result in profits in 1905
A quieting down in speculation at this period
VIII help rather than injure the market and
people who have the best interests of speculation
IN mind will not be disappointed if the market is
inactive in the rest Of the year.
Further strength in the foreign exchange mar
ket and tentative engagements of gold for
port created an impression that higher rates for
money might be expected. but quotations in the
money market failed TO indicate any important
change in the near future, although in some
quarters it was thought that over the end of
the year rates might rule at a higher level,
owing 20 the preparations for the January in
terest and dividend disbursements The fact
that this country is able 10 supply foreign de-
;nands for gold without causing disturbance in
its money market is one of the encouraging
factors Of the present situation, and II ought 10
impress American investors with the great flnan-
cial strength and substantial resources of the
United States. The possibility Of further blasts
from the Boston Spectator discussed IN
the Street with more amusement than fear but
II was conceded nevertheless that, in the event
OF renewed attack by Mr.. Lawson, there might
be a sufficient number Of weak spots in the
market to bring about a temporary lower range
Of values.
OF the active issues decided strength
shown by Amalgamated Copper, which enjoyed
a maximum advance Of over per cent; United
States Steel preferred, Atchison. Reading. Union

trail. but IN these issues trading light in
volume as compared with recent days, and rep
resented in great part the operations of the pro-
fessional element. While in the afternoon deal
ings prices reacted fractionally from the best
figures Of the Gay, closing quotations as rule
showed net gains. compared with Wednes-
days final prices. The volume of trading in the
last two hours was light transactions represent
ing little outside interest in speculation and uIl-
willingness on the part OF Wall Street to make
large commitments on either side of the &C
count. General developments were not suffi-
GENTLY important to excite speculative activity
although the character Of the days news was
extremely encouraging to the holders Of Ameri.
can investment securities.

A Conscientious Congressman.

Washington.-In voluntarily relin-
gushing his seat as a member Of the
house of representatives Mr.. Shafroth
of the first district of Colorado, fur
nished a profound sensation. The
manly, earnest words of the member
fairly took the breath of the house as
he proceeded to put the first case on
record in that body where member
gave up up his seat, acknowledging
that his election had been tainted by
fraud. For this Mr.. Shafroth de-
clared he was not in any way respon-
sible nor was he aware that it had
been perpetrated until the evidence
had been adduced before the elections
committee of the house. 1t was not
done, he said further, for the purpose
of causing his election.

THURSDAY.

The Senate this morning put the
Uniform Schoolbook, which was
adopted yesterday, section by section,
on its final passage, and it went
through by vote of 81 to 5. The
bill as passed by the Senate virtually
leaves the selection of the Commits
sioners to three men. The bill pro-
vides that the Governor, Attor
ney General and Superintendent
of Education shall select the other
members of the Commission. Today
there is considerable strong talk
among the members of the Legisla-
ture to change this provision so as to
provide that the house shall select
two, the Senate two, and the Governor
appoint two members of the Book
Commission, and they, with the Gov
ernor and the State Superintendent
of Education to constitute the Com
mission. No piece of legislation that
has been up for consideration this
season has been watched more intent
ly by the interested parties than this
book bill. Men of experience repre-
senting the book companies have been
on the ground, and they have been
cognizant of every move that has been
made. The indications are that there
is to be big fight on the mode of Sc
lecting the Commission.
The Senate passed Senate Bill No.
105, authorizing the Board Of Missis-
sippi Levee Commissioners to issue
81, ,0O0, 900 in bonds. Section of this
bill provides for a tax on all cotton
raised, to constitute fund to pay the
bonds.

The Senate.
WEDNESDAY.

The Senate discussed the Uniform
Textbook Bill and adopted it section
by section. The composition of the
textbook commission was decided up
on. 1t will be composed of the gov
ernor, attorney general and superin-
tendent of education, with the follow
ing, to the be appointed by the above
Two members from the colleges of
the state, two from the common
schools, two from the primary schools
and two high school principals.
Among the important billsintroduced
to-day was one in the Senate looking
to the sale of the state s property in
Jackson.
Chairman Brown, of the Appropri-
alton Committee of the House, in
troduced the general appropriation
bill, which was referred to his COM
mittee. This bill provides for the pay
ing of the salaries of the state Off
GERS, judges, district attorneys, and
the interest on the state debt.
The House adopted the Brown reso-
luton, introduced some days ago, pro-
viding for adjournment on March 5,
but no one believes that adjournment
will be had on this date. just before
adjournment this afternoon the House
passed bill to pay to the Greenville
Encampment Committee the amount
expended by it for an encampment
which was called off by the Adjutant
General.
The Insurance Committee this af-
ternoon, at its meeting agreed to re-
port favorably on the two insurance
bills. The bill looking to the repeal
of the valued policy clause is reported
favorably in part. The committee re-
ports their Endorsement of the repeal
of this clause so far as it affects per-
sonal property, but the valued policy
to remain on buildings. The bill ex-
empting the insurance companies
from the antitrust laws, ,and repeal
ing the antl-compact clause, so as to
allow them to work in Mississippi, the
COMMITTEE favorably reported. There
is little doubt but that the bills as re-
ported by the Insurance Committee
will be passed by both House and
Senate.
The Finance Committee of the Sen
ate has made a favorable report on
the common school appropriation of
81, 100000, which passed the House
during the second week of the pres
ent session. A minority report will
be submitted by the Finance Com
mittee, cutting down the appropria-
tion. Both reports for appropriations
are exclusively of poll tax. The Sen
ate will more than likely adopt the
majority report.

Legislative Notes.

There are a few changes in the In
surance Bill favorably reported by
the House committee on Insurance,
besides the repeal of the valued
policy clause of the anti-compact
clause, which viii be Of interest. The
standard fire insurance policy was
omitted from the bill for the reason the
it might conflict with the retention of
the valued policy clause as to realty.
Section 33 of the bill has the follow
ing new amendment to enforce pay
ment on any loss sustained, when the
amount recovered is equal to the
amount sued for the defendant COM

tiff in damages in the sum of 10 per
cent of the amount so recovered and,
