NEW YORK LETTER.

New York, Feb. 2-The stock mar
ket was rather dull affair after the
excitement of the past week. The tone,
however, was feverish and nervous.
Prices swayed back and forth within
radius Of about two points for the
active issues.
Union Pacific sold off from 17015 to
1872 and back to 17115. St Paul from
l47 10 146 and back to the latter figure.
Reading opened at 119 and the mani
pulators bid it up close to 121 near the
end of the session
There was nothing in the general Sit
uation to affect prices materially either
way, therefore professional operators
took advantage OF the absence of in
fluential trading either way to operate
largely among themselves.
The number Of leading railroads
throughout the country which are
adopting the plan of issuing short time
notes at rather high rate of interest
is increasing daily. It seems to be ap-
proved by investors more than the in
crease Of additional securities.
Some Of the best posted traders in
the street have been inclined TO buy
such stocks as st. Paul Baltimore &
Ohio. Atchison and Missouri Pacific on
the belief that the liquidation has ran
it's course In some of the securities and
that the chances for an advance IS
greater than a decline.
The bank statement was little
better than generally expected. 1t, how
ever, as a market factor die
not induce any new trading to
speak Of stocks continued on their
even tenor The close tonight shows
gains here and there, but on the whole
prices are about the same as yester-
days final sales.

Tender Heart on the Bench.

According to On eminent lawyer
there is a custom in French jurispru-
dence that sanctions the consultation
by Judge in provincial courts WITH
colleagues on the bench, called "as-
SCISSORS" when sentence is TO be
passed upon certain classes Of male
factors. What ought we TO give this
rascal. brother?" a Judge in the de-
partment Of the Loire asked the asses

Il should give him four years.
Whereupon the Judge. assuming an
air Of great benevolence, said: "Pris-

ment. as l should have done If left

learned brethren and shall take their

1t appears that some of the Cuban
patriots who organized the late I'M
lamented revolution were busy saving
the country with their left hand while
looking out for themselves with their
good right hand.

1t may be necessary to keep even a

Cincinnati, Jan. 2. Rev. George
Clark Cox, rector of Calvary church,
Clifton. suburb of this city, has ten
dered his resignation to his vestry at
meeting of that body, by which it was
unanimously accepted. The action on
the part Of Rev. Cox was due to the
recent letter Of Bishop Vincent, in
which the latter condemns the utter
ances of Rev. Cox as heretical, and
strongly disapproves Of the action OF
the standing committee in not holding
the noted clergyman for trial.
Cox has avowed his disbelief in the

ment made by Rainey, Democrat from
Illinois, in discussing the lakes-to-the-

way to restore the competitive system
in this country in the matter Of carry
ing heavy freights is by improving our

the hand Of the "steel trust" was seen
in opposition to the Mississippi river
enterprise, because it might interfere
with the Lake Erie and Ohio river
canal, which extends from Cleveland
on the lakes to Pittsburg.
He said that unless the enterprise
in which he was interested, with tens

the millions spent upon the Hennepin
canal would be wasted, IS would also
be the millions spent by Chicago upon
its ship canal. He predicted that ''un-

Manners and Business.

Have you ever thought that good
manners are decidedly worth while in
business? Has it ever occurred to you
that nowhere else are they of such
Importance? Yes, IN cold blooded bust
ness, where one man tries to win over
the other. DO you think that it isn't
in place to be we'll hammered during
business hours. If you do that is where
you are very much mistaken. There is
no capital a young man can have which
viii pay him a better dividend. It is
an equipment which will be of as
sistance in any calling. Brains, tho
ability to use brains, and good manners
make combination which cannot be
beaten.
It Is quite proper to talk Of organi-
zation IN business and of cooperation
among those whose activities are sim
liar. but every truly successful bust
ness man. successful in the largest
sense. must have first learned that
manners are business capital. The fact
IS demonstrated by any man Of bust
ness who is employing assistants. When
an applicant appears he generally looks
the man over, asks some rather unim-
portant questions. and if the manner
of the applicant suits, that is all; a
business afltation follows 1t is i'm
pressions that count most, usually first
impressions. and the one who is well
hammered makes the best impression
and gets the business or the position,
whioh is the same thing.
THUS. manners are decidedly worth
while and Of great Importance. They
mean, as d rule, success or failure. The
young man who looks to his manners
has an excellent business asset He

The German Elections.

The German elections yesterday

maintained more than a semblance of

The emperor made himself distinctly

least appear the enemy Of the en-

the centerists were left to hold the
districts represented by them in the
last reichstag.
In this the Pope helped by sending
direct word to the Catholic voters not
to antagonize the government. 1t was
pointed out that with the bitter con-
test in France at the crisis 1t was no
time to precipltate hostile feeling in
Germany, where the church as an or
ganization had no cause for complaint
William, so often likened to President
Roosevelt, equally holds his peoples
loyalty by deserving 1t. For all his
constituencies as to his rule by divine
right, no monarch Of all Europe has
ever done more than he to increase the
prosperity Of his people and to build
up the spirit Of contentment through a
just. though aggressive, use of his
powers.
Germany has developed wonderfully
during his reign and its trade has
extended to all parts OF the world. This
prosperity has not been confined to the
richer class, but has extended equally

Roosevelt's Power in the Land.

For nearly six years the American
people, the most sensitive people on
the globe to spiritual forces, have had
before them IN the most prominent
place In the nation a man who day in
and day out. from the moment of his
elevation to political power. has shown
his scorn Of dishonest wealth; who has
shown his hatred Of power bought
with corruption. who has Haunted his
defiance at thieves in high places no
matter how we'll eonventionalized their
stealing may have been, no matter
how respectable they have been con-
sidered The tremendous effect of his
preoepts and his consistent example
upon the mental habits OF this people
is incalcuable But the evidences Of
that power are seen in every human
institution, whether IT be school or
church or store or township or county
or state or corporation or society all
over the land. The seed has fallen
upon good ground. The power for
righteousness that this seed has gen
Grated among men is felt in the stir
ring roots Of humanity. wherever it
can be manifested. Before this dy-
manic power for justice and equity in
politics and in business and in the
simpler relations of life greed in the
form of aggrandizing capital and class
feeling, must go down, as caste went
down before righteousness under
Washington and Franklin in the
