No Mail on Bad Roads.

In order to secure good roads on
the routes over which rural carriers
deliver mail Fourth Assistant Post
master-General Degraw has issued a
new regulation that mail will not be
delivered on roads which are not
kept in good condition. Some time
ago the Fourth Assistant issued an
order requiring postmasters at rural
delivery Offices to report to the De-
partment the number of miles of road
covered by rural delivery from their
Offices and the names of road onicials
having Jurisdiction over each sepa-
rate section of roads.
Letters are now being sent to
these road oficials notifying them
that rural delivery will not be con-
tinued on roads which are not kept
In condition to be travelled with IA
cility and safety at all seasons OF
the year. They are requested to give
attention to the roads ~ soon as prac-
ticable. New York has 1904 rural
routes, made up Of 1929 miles OF ma
cadam road and $3.50 miles Of
earth, gravel and sand roads.

STOCK MARKET
 IS ARTIFICIAL,
 SAYS CLEWS
Says RooSeyeIt's Valedictory
 Is Harmless and Congress and Will of People Will Be-
 come Final Authority Again.

The artificial character of the stock market is no longer to be concealed, says Henry Clews in his weekly mar ket letter. Manipulation has now con trolled the movement of prices for many weeks, and at no time has it been so apparent as during the week just closed. In the effort to stimulate buying first one and then another of the second and third rate stocks were jerked up, but without any satis- factory results. These spasmodic movements seemed to accomplish lit tie except to excite further opposition against the attempt to carry prices still higher at this time. Apparently the market has been pulled almost to q standstill.
 Investors look askance at the prices which the best stocks are bringing, because they find no attractive offer ings and seem inclined to await re- action. New issues of importance are pending, and these, if offered, at suit able figures, are receiving the invest ors' preference. Whether the Janua- " investment demand will be as brisk as usual or not remains to be seen. The amount of funds seeking invest ment will certainly be larger than a year ago, and may be larger than us- ual. But, if the disposition to post pone purchases continues as strong as at present, the market will lack this important element of support. Much will depend, of course, upon the development in business. Meanwhile the speculative buyer faces decidedly that all natural influences are in favor of reacticn,~yet can not ignore the fact that the market is stlll in the firm conflicting conditions. He recognizes grip of the most powerful and re- sourceful manipuIatGrs the market has ever seen. These parties have held their sway ever since the panic, and were chiefly responsible for the rise following Mir. Taft's election. They have been steadily feeding out stocks at every opportunity, and still seem determined and able to maintain the market at the present artificial level. The abundance and cheapness of mon- ey is a powerful aid to such purposes; in fact, present high prices are largely infiationary and the sequence of a re- dundent cerTency. In addition to these sources of strength there is the back ing of many of our leading bankers and financial institutions who are in tereSted in the placement of numerous new issues. It is a necessary part of their policy to keep the market in cen ditioR favorable to the absorption of

these issues, which will amount to many millions. So long as business continues to improve, and no unfavor- able developments occur, 1t is easy, therefore, to see why no reaction comes. While buyers are scarce, sell CTS are equally so. and the market would be threatened with stagnation were it not for the operations of the big professional traders, who have been the largest real buyers and are in some cases anxious to tighten thef- burden. No doubt activity woa,id be promoted and the technical situation much improved. by a decline of 5 to 10 points. This would bring in c new class of buyers, especially as the short interest is increasing, broaden the dis tribution of stocks and revive the in vestment demand. Hut until the pres. ent leaders step aside, or unfayorable conditions develop, it is useless to an. tcipate any important break in prices. The investor can, of course. afford to wait for better opportunities, while the speculator will haze to he sl'iSf:e:I with the quick turns and small profits which the activ'ti B of big traders may offer.

Canadian Northern Railway Acquires the Duluth, Raing Lake and Winnipeu Line.

CHICAGO, Dec. 19.--A new com mercial route has been opened up between the United States and Cana da by the acquisition of the Duluth, Rainy Lake & Winnipeg railway by the Canadian Northern railway-put- ting Duluth for the first time on a direct short line between Chicago and Winnipeg and iBsarfng to the United States larger share in the shipments from the prairie provinces of west ern Canada. The tightening of the bonds of commercial union between the country north Of the lakes and the United States has been brought step further by this action and business men of the middle, western states de clare that there will be little delay be fore they take advantage of this addi- tional access to the markets of the Cand, an plains. The Duluth, Missabe 6 Northern railroad is also affected by the change in control This road. whicl brings the ores from the mines between Dulutn and Virginia to the lakeside is given new connection with Canada likewise and stands to gain a share of the great and increas- ing wheat traffic of Manitoba, Sas- katchewan and Alberta It is a double tracked road, in inc condition, and during its last fiscal year carried 13,- OOO,OO0 tons Of ore which was shipped to eastern smelters. The connec- ton with Canada will be at Fort Frances, where a new bridge has been built spanning the outlet of Rainy Lake two miles from the town. 4 railway both skirts and crosses this lake, which is in the heart of the game country. Although the lake is only forty miles long in its greatest length, it's shore line is so toTtCous and it's arms so many and widespread that the thousands of islands which dot it's surface have never been counted. In illy-pad time, say sportsmen who have been through this region, it is no un- common thing when the moose come to the water to feed, for a canoeman ascending one of the streams to see from twelve To twenty moose in O day.
