Sir John Roger Says It Is World
Wide.

PHILADELPHIA. December 12.-''The
gravity of the negro problem is not con-
fined to the United States. England faces
1t in her colonies. The whole world faces
it. The problem of the future of that race
is one of the greatest and gravest con-
fronting civilization
Sir John Roger. governor OF the English
gold coast colony, southwestern Africa,
expressed these views last night in an cd
dress at the Berean Presbyterian Church.
I'm Africa" he said. negroes putnum-
Der the whites in the proportion of 5000
600 to 1000 How to educate them is as
grave a question there as in america.
Our greatest trouble Is to induce them to
work with Their hands in the trades. The
hope of the negro race lies in manual
labor.
II have little doubt that the colored race
in America will soon realize this and will
really take their place among the other
races here.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The Improvement, or rather the contin-
uation of the improvement. in the gen.
eral market, as the advance in price Is
considered, has. of course, favorable Ell
feet on the local stock market This Is
shown not always in any changes IN the
figures or in an increase in the volume OF
the trading but there is noticeable a bet
ter tone and a more cheerful way Of re-
garding the outlook
1t IS supposed that the gain Of Today
shown in the quotations in securities
on the New York market is due in
part to the announcement of the Pres
fdenr reasserting his declaration of
three years ago that he would not
again be a candidate At the same
time this announcement has served to
bring out expression of the bitter feeling
that exists to such a large extent among
those who have to do with fins 1cial mat
tiers in regard to the President. So in
tense is this feeling, or rather its bitter
ness. that 1t may be sad to amount to a
species of Roosevelt-phobia.
With this class there Is, of course, a
settled conviction that in spite of his dec
laration. he is still in the field. 1t is EVIL
dent, however, from the effect on the
market that this is not the general view.
In this connection 1t may also be noted
that there Is no recent evidence that tn,
wave of feeling against the President
which was observed in the early days of
the late panic as having spread outside
what might be termed financial circles has
continued to grow in volume.
At any rate, the general situation has
improved, and especially in the important
particular of a slightly easier money
market.
The trading today at the meeting of
the stock exchange was not as large as
was the case yesterday. and no essential
change was made in the figures. The
furry that was caus. d yesterday by
couple of brokers who wanted to have
normal prices in an abnormal market,
was not renewed today, owing mainly to
in that direction One of the these brok-
ers, however made a low bid for an odd
lot OF gas stock. 1t was supposed that
his purpose was to dislodge some stock
al bargain prices and. in fact, another
broker expressed his willingness to let
him have the stock at his price If he
would not insist upon making a record of
the trans action, but this condition was
not accepted.
This agitation of the subject may be
look upon as an indication of an in
creasing buying demand. although 1t Is
ve-y doubtful IL even lower figures would
stimulate buying. as the principal advo-
cat, seems to think would be the case.
Such a theory overlooks the well-known
t ndency of human nature to come in on
rising market and to begin to buy, not
on the low levels, but when values have
advanced.

Crook Will Had Only One Witness

BALTIMORE, December IL The will
Of E. D. Crook, PRESIDENT Of the Crook
Horner Company. who died recently, was
fled yesterday In the orphans court, but.
not having been executed according to
law. was refused probate by Judges
Block. Gather and Dunn. The signature
o. only one witness, that OF Henry A.
Kries, superintendent of the Crook Hor-
ner Company, appeared on the will. and
the law requires the signature Of at least
two. This error rendered the deceased
intestate, and made 1t necessary to secure
letters Of administration on the estate,
which was done by his son, Howard E.
Crook, who gave $4,000 bond. furnished
by the Fidelity and Deposit Company.
The will. which was executed December
1, 1906, bequeathed all his property to his
widow, Mary Grace Crook. with the ex-
ception Of his jewelry. which was left to
his son ana daughters. The will stated
that no provision was made for his daugh-
tiers, Edna and Irene, because the testator
knew their mother would care for them.
