gfneers figure that he viii be reached

Till MARKET SHOOK
WITH VIOLENT SPASM
Spectators Became Suspicious Of The
Intentions Behind The Hill Stocks.

New York. Dec ia violent spasm
of liquidation swept over the stock
market today, and caused a downward
rush of prices that looked threatening
at one time but a substantial recov-
cry overruled before the close. The
storm center was n group of stocks
which in the customary expectation Of
the stock market have enjoyed rights
recently. a phrase which operators in
stocks now use with ironical emphasis.
The confusion IN the market in st.
Paul continued and was an unsettling
Influence on the market The opening
price at St. Paul with the price quo'-
ed for rights" showed a rise of 81
over the closing price for stock yes

the books of the company We're closed
after the announcement of The sub
scription rights and a call for a S10,-
600 600 installment of the subscriptions
on Dec. 3lst on the eve of the yearly
money settlement was the subject Of
some bitter criticism and of professed
fears Of hidden design to disturb the
money market. There was some ex-
cited unloading on the part of specu-
lators who had been convinced that
they were following the leadership O.
the most influential capitalists in the
country who followed this reasoning
Professional traders We're loud in the
protestation OF suspicion that the
course of events had been specially ar
ranged to cause a break in prices.

Northern preferred still suffered ac-

were sufferers. There was an enor-

SENATOR RAYNEE on FEROCITY.

Because the president in his mes
sage saw fit to follow his argument
in the matter Of the japanese pupils
I'm San Francisco to the last analysis
notification of treaty law and the
powers of the United States in such
emergency-Senator Rayner OF Mary
land declares the contemplated pro-
ceeding to be ferocious. 1t is. indeed,
unthinkable that the government
should at this day be required TO use
military force TO compel a particular
community to acknowledge the law of
the United States, though that has
happened. 1t has also happened that
the military force of certain states
has been called out for resistance
against such laws. Senator Rayner
was quite as ferocious in his defence
of state rights in this instance as the
president was in laying down the eX-
IRENE procedure. as he understands il,
within the power Of the government.
The contingency itself is still alto
gether too remote to make such con-
troversy timely. 1t must first be de-
termined that treaty agreements have
been violated by the action Of the San
Francisco school authorities; after this
there will be ample time to discuss the
main point that the Maryland senator
raises-which is how far sovereign
state rights are infringed by the treaty
stipulations as acknowledged.
AS the treaty now stands it is the
law of the land. as much so as the
constitution itself. While it is subject
to Interpretation. a very pretty ques-
ton might develop if any Of its pro-
visions were found to conflict with the
constitution

The announcement by Delegate

The announcement by Delegate
Smith that there will be no statehood
discussion at this session of congress
is corroborative rather than informa-
tive. We know of no one who expect
ed that an attempt would be made To
blow life into the dead nOstrils OF
jointure. Mr.. Smith can in the pres
ent circumstances serve this territory
better in Kentucky or anywhere, so
that he is removed from the sight OF
Speaker Cannon, whose malign att
tude toward Arizona is apt to be
increased by the continual and inflam
matory presence Of EIr. Smith.

Some notion of when the Panama

be derived from a bill introduced in

to be held in Los Angeles to celebrate

 Under Chief Culpepper's regime 2S21 warrants were served; under Chief Stewards 353S, a difference of 1T. This fairly illustrates the increas- creased business which the police de- partment of this year has had to han de. Chief Culpepper was recognized as one of the most efficient officers the city ever had.

WILLY WAYS OF DUMAS.

The well-known Paris theater nan ager, Doligny, relates in his "Rem!' nisences" an encounter he once had with the elder Dumas, which furnish es an illustration of the novellsts witness.
 Doligny produced Dumas's drama "Kean," with the rather peculiar stip ulation that the author should receive one-third of the gross receipts wheI these exceeded 5000 francs, and noth ing at all if they fell below that fig ure.
 Dumas, who was always hard up came late one evening to get his share.
 Luck is against you again" said the manager. You don't get any thing tonight Here is the account
 Dumas glanced at it and went away. In a few minutes he came back and said:
 "Just look over the account again and then pay ne 1000 francs The ticket that just bought for francs brings. the total up to 5000 francs 50 centimes."

SPLENDID SHOWING.

On another page of this issue of the Graphic appears a lengthy item set. ting forth the chief improvements made by Pine Bluff for the past twelve months. Only lengthy item would tell the story.
 It shows that while 1905 was rot a prosperous one in Jefferson county, from a crop standpoint, the growth of Pine Bluff was not materially af- fected, when compared with former years. The money spent for improve ments, buildings, streets, etc., runs up into the hundreds of thousands. proving conclusively that the city is TOW experiencing growth era that Iothing short of the most unnatural conditions could at all check.
 Pine Bluff has an exceedingly bright future-not a mushroom growth that would perish except that the most f.attering conditions prevail, but 9 steady and healthy growth that means permanency and continued prosper ty.
