CALL MONEY RATED HIGH

NEW YORK. February 9.-Thc
stock market showed u heavy tone
from the outset to-day and weakened
decidedly after the appearance of tho
bank statement. This early check to
the recovery, which set in after the
middle OF tho week, was accepted as II
bad argument for the renewal OF tho
advance and as evidence that covering
by over extended shorts had been
principally responsible for the rally.
Tho decrease of over s12oo0,Oo0 In tho
cash holdings Of the banks Is diff
cult to trace to any known dcstina-
ton The known movements Of cur
rency fin1e the last bank statement
accounted for about s3,000,000. 1t Is
probable that the sub-trcasurys with
drawal OF government deposits late
last week figured In this weeks aver
ages of the banks instead OF last
weeks, but a large discrepancy would
still remain to be accounted for. The
small loan expansion, on the other
hand failed to show the expected ef-t
feet OF the large financial transactions
OF the week in the payment of New
York city bond subscriptions and the
taking Of u number of railroad note
issues. The hardening of tho call
money market yesterday Is sufficiently
explained by the showing of tho banks.
The time money market to-day was
reported firm and unusually active Tor
n Saturday in sympathy with tho rise
in call loan rates. Foreign takings Of
the note issues being made by the
railroad companies are establishing
foreign credits for New York accounts,
end New York's ability to draw gold
ut this time is counted on.
Reports by mercantile agencies OF
some quieting of spring demand and
retarding OF collections were given
consideration. although the tendency
is attributed to weather conditions
principally. The market closed weak
and at considerable declines Total
safes Of bonds par value, 100000.

DESERVING or THANKS

Prof. AlzamOn Ira Lucas, who set
the counteracting influences to work
against Tillman Is deserving Of
thanks for the very sane manner In
which he set about confounding the
arch fiend Of race prejudice. Grant
ing the injustice Of Tillmanism, We
are a minority element of this country
and must proceed circumspectly. We
must win our way. We must hold
fast to every friend and push on.
Prof. Lucas both In the inception and
in the working out Of the answer to
Tillmanism, was himself the best ar
gument. That man identified with
our race could conduct himself like
gentleman under abuse and injus-
tice. means more than any words.
The Alliance. and the citizens who
took part in the matter have been
equally discreet and wise Let US
give thanks for the visit of Tillman
for the things that have come out
of 1t are good.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1907-11-08
WILL DANCE.

The Odd Fellows OF Rocky Noun
tain Lodge have always been favorites
OF the public that wants to be enter
tained and their coming annual recep
tion and grand ball at East Tnruer
hall Thursday. Nov. litb. will he the
hi, OF the season. A committee that
comprises several seasons entertain
ers is In charge This is the Oldest
lodge of the order In the West and
numbers its friends By the legion. so
,ha, besides the music and dancing
the social feature will be well worth
the 35 cents admission.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1907-11-08
WORKED OUT FOR GOOD.

Denver Negroes have met the alb
normal situation caused by the pres
ence OF Senator Tillman here, with
considerable more good sense than
some other cities have shown. The
voice OF protest should always be
raised in condemnation OF the wrong
and defense Of the right, but there is
limit which good sense sets beyond
which we cannot go and maintain the
equilibrium Of races in this country.
Both the subsequent appeals to the
sense OF justice Of the community and
the remarks made at the lecture It.
self have been temperate. We have
begun to show ourselves confident OF
being equal to the conditions that sur
round us and are resorting less and
less to meaningless mouthinRs.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1907-11-08
PASTOR HAS CALL.

Rev. c. d. Douglass, the pastor OF
Central Baptist church, has received
call from the Mound Street Baptist
church OF Cincinnati. This church is
the larges, In Ohio and has an cdifice
that rivals anything In The West be
ing modern In all respects. This call
is such splendid one that Rev.
Douglass cannot but consider II as a
compliment He has II under advise
ment and what mis- decision will be is
lef, for the future TO say. Coming so
soon after our losing another promi-
nent Baptist divine. in the person OF
Rev. j. +. Ford, Denver seems fated
to be the stepping stone for higher
position for its ministers.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1907-11-08
