out that the French conflict of the
workingmens leaders against classes
and capitalists is fatal blunder FRI m
his point of view
The organization of the French Con-
federation of Labor with it's conflict
ing cliques' of political schemers and
downright anarchists. is considered
very faulty by Mr. Gompers. who urges
the French labor agitators to Study
more thoroughly the purely economic
conditions which prevail limit their
energies to questions and grievances
which concern them. and, above all. to
cut loose from political ntrigues or
party manoeuverS.
The extreme socialists bitterly con-
denim GOmpers as a reactionist and
scott at his big salary, but the moder-
ates have shown much sympathy in his
denunciation of the futile political eff
forts of the Federation of Labor The
moderate press of all shades of Opin-
ion expresses the hope that the French
labor organizations will heed Mr.
Gompers words and devote them
selves. like the American organiza-
tons. solely to the advancement of pro-
feesiOnal interests.

LAPsED INTO DULLNEssl
Yet the Undertone of Speculation Was
Strong-Money Market Easy.

New York April THE specula-
tive element regarded the days stock
market as slow. The sales for the
day in themselves indicate a deep cut
in the volume of the market from the
recently prevailing average. Then,
though the reactionary tendency of
yesterday was arrested and some sign
of recovery effected, the renewed adj
vance lacked vigor and breadth. The
speculative element had an explana-
ton for the halt that they themselves
and large operators in general were
disinclined to enter on extensive new
commitments with a three-d day closed
interval facing them at the end of the
week with the Easter holidays. In
spite Of the lapse into dullness the
undertone Of the speculation was
strong. Events of an unfavorable ma
ture were disregarded or treated with
no other apparent feeling than relief
that they were disposed of. Outside
of the coalers the strong stocks were
found amongst industrials and such
minor railroad stocks as are CLASH
fed with the specialties. Specific news
to account for these moves was lack
ing and these were attributed in part
at least to professional manipulation
for sympathetic effect in sustaining
prices in the general list Atchison
was only slightly affected by the keep
ing of the dividend at the odd rate,
though speculative runors were in Cir
culation at one time Of an intention
to advance the rate. London sold some
stocks in this market, especially Z.
S. Steel Reports from the steel trade
continued somewhat discouraging, but
the demand which has sprung up for
structural steel at the low prices is
considered an important augury of
construction and improvement on a
large scale in many cities. London's
selling Of stocks helped to stiffen the
foreign exchange rate and kept alive
