FINANCE AND 0 MERGE
Wall Street.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE price
movement of stocks underwent some
violent mutations today n the
curse of the market gave abundant
evidence Of the revival of something
like animation in the speculation. The
~suppositfOn of re-entrY into active
participation in the speculation Of
some of the professional operations of
large caliber was contributed by the
appearance of trading and the signs
Of holiness and resourcefulness with
which IL was conducted. The softness
Of the early market ana the readiness
with which IL yielded to selling pres
sure conveyed the impression that the
active campaign for a rise. which had
been entered upon last week. had
been quickly abandoned IN face of
some features developed over the n
of the week which were regarded as
rather discouraging. The pronounced
turn i'm the latter market suggested a
partly manipulative origin for the
early relapse in the faVorite manner
of a veteran speculative leader who
has been suspected Of q prominent
share in the initiation OF the present
movement. The market wts highly
speculative throughout to a degree
that has not been approached inc
the crisis In financial affairs. The re-
action i'm the early dealings served to
shake out the weak following of the
pun ltdOtfSnlp ana TO encourage re-
newed short selling by the bears. who
had commended to cover extensively
late last week in the uneasiness en-
gendered by The aggress.Neness Of the
advance. This shaking out of a weak
bull following and the revival of a
short interest strengthened the tech-
meal position of the market and facil-
itated the later advances.
Room traders held the belief that
Il was designed to the end. The re-
newal of the advance late in the day
was assigned to the general purposes
of a recognized party in the specu-
lation to take advantage of the run
towards Improvement in the financial
situation. which made itself clearly
perceptible already last week. The
market had the designation Of politi-
cal also from some observers, mean
ing that speculative anticipation was
being made Of future event at WASH
ington and of an expected modifca-
tion Of the public sentiment Of hostil-
ity towards capital and towards or
porations throughout the country
with its corresponding restriction i'm
the trend of legislation and admins
acts. II was alleged In behalf
OF this view that sufficient was known

questions. While prices were declin-
ing in the morning. assertions were
current with equal positiveness. the
was dis%counting an expected
bad influence on prices from the tenor
Of the presidential message. IL was
also that the pace set in the
recovery last week had become far
too rapid and the bankers and cap

frowning upon h imperosity Of the
movement. The talk was silenced
about the stock exchange during the
buoyant rise late in the day.

Attorney General Bonaparte is the
third member Of the cabinet slated by
rumor for retirement. The Bonaparte
rumor retains life and vitality, de-
spite efforts by both the president and
attorney general to kill it. At differ
ent times IT has been reported that
Mr.. Roosevelt was displeased with Mr..
Ronaparte's course in Maryland poll
tics, and with his conduct of the legal
department Of the government. There
has been no specific denial of either
report. but on n occasion when the
Bonaparte retirement rumor was RAM
pant, the president made the general
statement that he was well satisfied
with his cabinet. This had little ef-
feet upon the Bonaparte rumors, and
it long has been observed in Wash
ington that persistent reports that q
cabinet member is to get out gener-
ally is followed by his getting out.
There have been 10 specific rumors
as yet regarding a successor to Mr..
Bonanarte.
1t was currently reported some
time ago that Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson was TO go and be succeeded by
Clifford Pinchot, the United States
forester. whom the president would

whose retirement is now discussed /,
Postmaster General George Von l..
Meyer. II Is said that Mr.. Meyer Is
not happy in the postoffice depart
ment, and that he has been greatly
annoyed by the oft'-repeated story that
George b. Cortelyou was postmaster
general in fact, while Meyer was but
a figurehead. That the president has
confidence in Mr.. Meyer IS evidenced
by the fact that he vas n of the men
summoned to the White House for
conference on the financial situation
just before the treasury plan Of re-
lief vas announced.

NEW ZEALAND WOMEN
NOT SPOILED BY SUFFRAGE

As 10 woman suffrage, l asked many
about IL. and men and women seemed To
agree that II is a good thing. says
Charles Edward Russell in Soldiers Of

Magazine. The men said the women
notably Improved political life; IL Is the
cleaner and pureF because OF them.
Women go 20 political meetings and
rOWdyism fees before them, candidates
are very careful what they say and
how they say il when they know WON
en- voters are listening TO them. Public
officers are more careful about their
records, because IL has been found that
women viii not overlook things that
the men pardon. As TO public policies.
the women have steadily supported re-
form and the new ideas. they have not
cared whether a thing was sanctioned
by the ages so long as IL was right and
good. This is what the men told me.
The women said they had not found
IL any more dreadful to go 10 a polling
place and vote than 10 go TO a store
and buy thread they had never seen
nor heard anything shocking at poll
ing place. but invariably they had been
treated there with the greatest respect.
The men said that most OF them din
not know how their wives voted. As
for letting the soup burn and the chill
dren go hungry and WOmGn's sphere
and all that sort of thing, the New
Zealanders despise any such sugges-
tons about their voting helpmates. They
saw a woman can vote and understand
Perfectly what she IS voting about and
