THE LAMP.

This is the name of one of the brightest. most
kindly and best edited periodicals entering our of
flee 1t holds and deservedly So a very high place
with the clean literature of Europe and America
and has for itself the approval and applause of
high-minded and serious thinking men.
The Lamp is an Anglo-Roman monthly. the or
gan of that large and intellectual division of the
Anglican or Episcopal Church which hopes and be-
heves and prays that the prophesy of Our Divine
Lord. there shall be but one fold and one shep-
herd" viii surely be fulfilled if not opposed by the
perverted and determined will of man. But He
who turned the rock into a standing water: and

good time call His elect into the fold and
"they shall come with joyfulness bringing their
sheafs with them"
The Lamp IS in an especial way, the official
voice of the organization known as the anglo Ro-
Union formed for the maintenance and de-
fence of Catholic principles, to promote the corpo-
rate reunion of the churches Of the Anglican com

WALL STREET.

The commission appointed by Governor Hughes
to investigate the operations of the New York
stock exchange has made its report Like about
every commission that has been appointed to in
vestgate anything and like every institution that
has been the subject of official inquisiton it has
been discovered that there are some things that are
| subject for condemnation, and also a great many
things worthy of praise The commission finds
that of the transactions on the exchange, Sub
stantia part may be characterized as virtual gam
bling" This feature of the operations on the ex
change has been known pretty generally before
Governor Hughes commission so reported other
investigators have found the same condition Like
everybody else, the commission is unable to point
out way abolish this feature of the operations:
the legitimate operations of the exchange are close
ly interviewer with the gambling features. 1t sug-
gests several correctives, however among which is
that the exchange be incorporated, so that it may
become subject to supervision by the state 1t also
recommends that margin of 20 per cent be re-
qured on all except cash transactions, and urges
that the exchange should have authority to say
when corner" exists, and to fix settlement price
for the protection of innocent persons.
One feature of the report that is worthy of no.
tice is that it is not condemnatory in all it's phases
The commission finds that the stock exchange rem
ders many real services to the business interests of
the country They are a sort of clearing house
where information is gathered and disseminated as
to the condition of the markets of the world ANY
interference with the legitimate functions of the
exchange would cause great inconvenience to the
investing public, while the speculative interests
would suffer but small proportonately Regula-
ton of such an institution is much to be desired
but such regulation, it is pointed out must take
nothing away from the legitimate activities of the
exchange The commission undertakes to show that
Short selling is legitimate feature of the activi
ties of the exchange and while in this respect there
will no doubt be many to take issue with the report
it is pointed out that dealers in all kinds of secur
ties by selling short" are enabled to protect them
selves and the market.
While it is beyond the scope of the board of
managers of the stock exchanges to require public
ity among corporations, the Hughes commission
urges publicity Of the great corporations and II has
been suggested that if the boards of control should
refuse to list stocks which represent corporations
which do not submit to publicity, much would be
gained in this direction. Already some of the big
corporations make public their business transac-
lions, notably the steel trust The public can learn
at almost any time the exact conditions existing in
that combination. With examples of this kind, and
with the constant urging of publicity upon the
corporations the tendency toward publicity is
