Cooperation TO Effect Remedy.

He favored the cooperation Of the
Departments of State and Commerce
and Labor in meeting the conditions. In
this he said that a representative of the
Bureau Of immigration should be sta
toned as an attache to the legation in
China and that consuls should not issue
passports to Chinese without the author
ity OF such immigration officer. He said
that there had been many fraudulent
papers issued by consuls and that when
the Chinese immigrants came to this
country the officials of the Department
Of Commerce and Labor detecting the
irregularities subjected the immigrants
to what they termed disgraeeful treat
ment. This he said may have actuated

Mr.. DENLY said that the boycott had
changed from an anti-American boycott
to an anti-foreign boycott and il has
developed that the Chinese have placed
such high value upon themselves that
they are practically determined 70 pro-
EibiJ further encroachment of foreign
ers in the Industries of their country
They want TO accomplish in a couple OF

IN THE WORLD OF FINANCE
LOCAL STOCK MARKET
DRAGS YEARLY
Public Taking Little Interest in the
Daily Trading, and Profession
alism Holds Sway.

Daily the waning interest in local
stock speculation Is shown by the char
acter of the trading. The public is to
all appearances not taking more than
a passing interest in the course of
prices and the commission business IS
reduced 10 the most meagre proportions.
Prices generally hold strong and where
changes occur they are within a radius
of a small fraction only. This is more
particularly shown in the case of a
stock like Washington Railway COM
mon. in which the variations for a
month past have not exceeded a full
point As this is one of the favOrites
that in the past has received much at
tention it indicates strongly the lack Of
public interest.
The trading today had no feature of
special Importance as no single stock
was dealt in 10 much as 500 shares
Such specialties as Gas. Lanston. Mer-
genthaler, Railway preferred, and 9TH
ers were passed over with but trifiing
dealing. while Greene Copper, Railway
common and Capital Traction stood
the brunt OF the business with practi-
cally no variation in prices.

1t does not require any great intelligence to
see that our church must be Il home mission
church. 1t has vast territory with many
desttntions, and many fields crying for help.
It's great ling Of God is to send through our
land those who will preach the gospel and Give
the bread of life. To this end it has schools
and colleges and theological seminaries. To
this end it has publication house, and sends
out It's literature. 1t pushes forward its home
Missions that it may be more and more a for
elgn mission church. Its chief function is to
extend the organized and living Church of
Christ in the home land. And this work has
become classified in a way that is natural and
wise, and most successful The Presbyterv for
its own field; the Synod to help the weaker
Presbytery and reach the most needy fields, and
the General Assembly to 90 West and South
into the newer fields, where the Presbytery and
Synod can do nothing Without question ler
us help them ALL And this the churches are
doing, not as well is they might, but with grow
ing interest and iberality
