COUNTRY RULED BY WOMEN
Stamp of the Feminine Mind IL Seen
on Almost Everything
In America.

Says Worlds Work: In the Unit.
ed States there arr at least 1000, 900
more men, than women and only one
tenth 81 the women. are at. work out
side OF their own homes. Yet the
stamp Of the feminine mind is upon
everything American and In many OF
the higher phases of culture women
take the initiative.
This rule Of women in the United
States begins in our public schools.
where boys and girls are educated to-
gether and where the teacher is al
ways in the lower grades at least, q
woman. In the great cities the femi-
nine influence goes into every nook
and Granny Of social development. A
woman has been suggested as mayor Of
Chicago and the "civic creed" Of CHI
cago was composed by a woman and
IL recited every day by thousands Of
school children.
Women compose very largely the
reading public ana no current novel
can succeed without their patronage.
Some Of the most successful magazines
are devoted to their interest exclu-
sively and those given to scientific
and philosophic discussions seldom ex-
ist long or they become the organs Of
small and detached organizations OF
men.
Art exhibits are conducted by wom-
en- and women hold executive ofices
in worlds fair committees. They
serve as chairmen Of school boards
and they torment, through their mu-
nicipal leagues, the party leaders.
They are notable as charity workers
and they have made regulations as
doctors, lawyers. magazine editors,
newspaper reporters, preachers, poIit-
icai speakers and labor organizers and
agitators, Indeed, where in the Unit
ed States do we not find the woman
with her influence, battering at all

HIGH SPEED SHIPS WANTED
Rapid Transit in Ocean Travel II the
Popular Demand Of the
Day.

Among the advantages claimed fol
the increasingly popular passenger
ships Of large size and moderate
speed should be mentioned the fact
that many of them are showing in
regular service rate of speed which
is fully as high as that which they
maintained on their trials in smooth
water, states the ucientiflc American.
Moreover, because OF their great
weight and momentum and their mod
crate speed they are not SO greatly af-
fected by adverse weather conditions
as the faster shipU and their coming
and going is marked by great rcgulari-
ty and a close adherence to the sailing
schedule.
II 23-knot ship, runs into a heavy
head sea 1t must make a much great
er reduction in its speed than is nee
essary in vessel OF say Is to It knots
speed; and, consequently 1t will be
more liable to miss a tide and suffer
nights detention, say at Quarantine,
New York, than ship Of the slower
type. AS showing how the big YES
sells Of the intermediate type are run
ming well up to their trial speeds, we
may take the case of the Amerika,
which in recent passage from Cher
bourg to Sandy Hook of 3,140 miles
maintained an average speed Of 1871
miles an hour, while on its preceding
easterly passage 1t covered distance
OF 3,088 miles In seven days, six hours
and "a minutes, which works out as an
average speed of 1911 miles an hour.
The high-speed liner, however, Is not
In any danger of being forced out Of
the field by its slower sisters, as wit
ness the fact that the North German
Lloyd has under construction twin
ship to the 2S1s-knot Kaiser Wilhelm
der Crosse, and that the Cunard COM
pany will shortly put pair Of PAN to
Is knot vessels in service.
SO rapid is the increase in the NUM-
Der of those who cnn afford to pay the
highest rates for Atlantic travel and
90 great is the demand for rapid tran
cit on the part of those to whom time
Is an object that we look to see lin
tied number of 25-knot vessels built
from time to time for the Atlantic SER
vice. The majority of the trans-At-
lantic liners of the future, however.
will Undoubtedly be of the America
and the Baltic type for not only are
these the ships upon which the COM
panies depend for the greater part Of
their revenues but because of their
steadiness. absence of vibration and
the more lengthy sea trip which they
afford. they are becoming increasingly
popular with the travelling public.

REMEDY FOR
CESSATION Of
MONEY FURRY

Chicago, Dec. l2.-The reasons for
the present furry in money rates in
wall street and remedies for such
state of affairs were explained to the
Illinois Manufacturers association at
the annual banquet mere last night by
Jacob II. Schiff, New York. Schif
spoke at considerable length. His
subject was Currency and Other Re
forms, and the speaker declared chat
the overnight announcements of re-
lief which the secretary of the treas
ury is in the nabit of making are
neither good finance nor fruitful Of
good results to the material inter
ests of the country Announcements
from Washington according to Schiff
are the consequences of undesirable
methods, for which the existing laws
are responsible. The remedy the
speaker said for the evil is the en-
actment of legislation which will pro,
vide that the revenues of the govern
ment shall on collection, be deposited
with the national banks in proportion
to their capital upon security accept
able to the secretary of the treasury
upon payment of uniform rate of in
terest, the same to be determined by
the secretary. Should such legislation
be adopted Schiff contended the
country would not as at present be
dependent upon a single man and
mind for the regulation of the money
supply but would at all times under
stand with what it has to deal.
