POOR AND NEEDY SICK AIDED.
Mrs. Euztis Reports Work of Visit

Bishop Satterlee, in a brief address at a
meeting Of the Instructive Visiting Nurse
Society, yesterday morning. at the home
Of Mrs. Emily Tuckerman, II2 II. street,
commended the work Of the District
nurses in caring for the sick OF the poor
and needy in Washington. Mrs. William
Corcoran Eustis, president of the society.
read the annual report OF the organiza-
ton
The city of Washington" she said, is
divided into eight sections. with a nurse
in charge OF each OF these sections. These
nurses give professional services to those
in need of care irrespective Of creed,
race. or standing. for a trivial sum.
IN one district where the nurse has
been giving faithful service and good ad-
vice for the last seven years. there has
been a marked improvement in the clean
lIness of the houses. Sanitary conditions
are, therefore. much improved. The same
result is looked forward to in the other
districts.
statistics show there is more consurp-
tlon in the city OF washington than In
any other city OF It's population in the

COMMENT ON MARKET.

Benjamin Woodruff Of Post & Flagg-
This was another uninteresting day in
the market, gossip centering on the pos
sibility of further banking troubles and
the Presidents coming message TO Con-
gress. The latter Is expected TO be raGi-
cal and considering the summaries Of
this document which have been freely
passed around in the past few days, COM
bined with the failure Of two New York
banks this morning, I think the market
held well. ] expect that prices will rally
on the publication Of the Presidents mes
sage. no matter what Il may contain. the
general feeling being that our Chief Ex-
ecutive has overshot the mark, and that
a reaction from Ny Policies is already
under way
G. b. Chipman. Of E. F. Hutton &
Co.-"The bank failures this morning
had some influence on the sentiment of
traders. but probably the chief factor in
causing the selling mp to the noon hour
was the reported forthcoming message Of
President Roosevelt. In which some Of
his characteristic ideas are TO be given
on finance and other matters. The sell
ing was largely by the professionals. with
some scattered commission house busi-
ness. In the early afternoon a tendency
10 rally was seen, and this was the result
OF lack Of pressure on the market. No
good buying was in evidence. nor was
there any selling OF significance on the
decline There Is little IN the present
market situation 90 warrant any impOr.
tant movement one way or the other. and
more Or less narrow fluctuations may be
looked for. Too much short selling will
be followed by sharp rallies. I advise the
purchase OF any Of the standard issues on
special weakness for fair profits"
George L Edmunds. OF Miller & Co.
TN the face Of the closing Of the
two New York banks, forecasts Of the
Presidents message. and pessimistic pre-
.dictlons regarding other banks. the stock
market was comparatively strong. though
quite dull most Of the day. Amalgamated
Copper was particularly firm on a much
better feeling in trade circles The bond
market continued active with good in
vestment issues in demand from buyers
Toward the close the market grew
stronger on endeavors Of the bear party
to secure stocks badly placed in the early
trading The floating supply is smaller
now than al any time in years. The
enormous investment demand OF the last
eight or nine months has assured the
fact that more people are friendly TO the
corporations whose properties are repre-
sented by these stocks than ever be
fore. Disasters threatened in the indus
trial world are showing recovery. In my
way Of thinking the pTeponderance OF
factors tend strongly toward the bull
position

Does Not Like the Proposed License

c. S Dal gherty, eabman, OF Co Third
street northwest. writes to The Herald
protesting against the proposed licensing
Of cabmen. He sees no more reason for
licensing cabmen than there would be
for licensing any other class Of people be-
cause some of them, perchance, do not
always practice a square deal.
You wifi find" says lie, dishonest
men in all stations of life, and l do not
see why all the cabmen or the men in
any other trade should be blamed because
some Of them are dishonest. Overcharg-
ing can always be avoided If the man or
woman hiring the cab will ask the price
in advance, as is done when buying any
thing at a store"
In conclusion. he appeals for fair treat
ment for the cabmen as q class.
