coRTELYoU AND THE MARKET

Secretary Cortelyou has been forced at the very outset of his administration of the treasury department, by an exig- eney arising out of stock operations of very singular character. IL is unfor- innate that such transactions as those witnessed on the New York stock ex- change during the past three days, most of them having no relation whatever to actual conditions of trade or industry. should nevertheless constitute real danger to the vast structure of credit indispensable to the conduct of the nations business. This being the fact, however, Mr. Cortelyou was justified in taking such precautions as he did to avert possible financial calamity.
 The seeretary's action directs atten tion anew to the governmental policy of withdrawing over million dollars day from the money circulation of the country and locking if up in sub treasury vaults, which makes it neees- sary to resort to various expedents to return it to normal channels of circu lation. The new Aldrieh bin was in. tended to modify this anticipated and every way objectionable policy, and its operation will be watched with much interest. Mir. Corteyou order that customs receipts shall be deposited in national bank depositaries is regarded as not going far enough, though it is probable that the conditions governing public deposits are such as to materially minimize the value of the new law as corrective of the evils of the sub treasury system.
 If so, the need for further currency Legislation will be freshly emphasized. Something ought to be done to relieve the government of the necessity of ap bearing as bull factor in the market every time set of stock brokers gets up'the semblanee of panie.-Washing ion Herald

Is Unable to Find Manager

Sidney Rosenfeld, addressing the American Dramatist's s club at the din ner given by Charles Klein in honor of Henry Arthur Jones, told of his expert ences while trying to find a manager who would produce his play, .ssThe Op- timist. v
 "l don think much of the title, '' was the first manager s protest.
 Do you know what it means9' asked Mr. Rosenfed.
 Certainly was the impatient an swer. An optimist is a man who looks after the eyes and pessmist is one who looks after the feet. -
 This recalls Wilton Lackaye's re- mark when asked if he had found a manager for Les Miserables. v
 - Found one to produce it?'' he an swered, "why haven t even found one who could pronounce it. '--Rochester Herald.

Silence Shouted for Him

Washington queer characters arc fast going by the board During the past year at least six figures that were familiar on the streets have disap- peared. The other day veteran clerk in the postoffice department missed from his usual haunts in front of the building man who had long greeted the ingoing employees in the morning and the outgoing ones in the evening. This character was only known to his patrons as Shoestring Johnnie. He al. ways carried bundle of laces over his arm, but was never known to say a word as an inducement for anyone to purchase his wares He simply swayed his shoestrings toward the passing throng as a mute appeal to the people to buy. At first some of the government clerks thought the man was dumb, but one of them engaged him in conversa- tion one day and found he could talk glibly enough.
 "Why don't you shout out your wares like the other peddlers? he was asked.
 What s the uses" was the logical reply. "The people can see that have shoestrings--that is, if they know what shoestrings are-and they must know that am not lingering around here for fun. y
 IL IS thought that Shoestrng Johnnie IS dead, as he has not been seen on his familiar route for more than week and Christmas time was usually his har- vest season. Washington Star.
