BIG OVATION
. FOR WR|GHTS
HOME TOWN DEMONSTRATION IN
FULL SWING - INVENTORS
LY-WORK TO LAST MINUTE.

DAYTON, Ohio, June f7.-Some-
body at dawn today yelled "Hurrah
for little old Dayton, which coupled
with the names of the Wright broth
ers Immediately became the slogan of
Dayton for the two days celebration
in honor of the inventors.
By the booming Of cannon, Shrek
ing of whistles and ringing of bells
the citizens of Dayton made it known
that whatever claim the rulers of
Europe or the government of Wash
ington has upon the Wright brothers.
theirs is that OF fellow townsmen.
Up to the. hour OF opening of the
ceremonies Wilbur and Orville
Wright were hammering away in
their work shop. still busy with the
details of packing up parts OF their
aeroplanes for shipment to Washing
ton.
Miss Katherine Wright. their sis
ter Bishop Milton Wright. father OF
the inventors and Lorin and ROUGH
lin Wright. the other two brothers,
had already entered q carriage when
Wilbur and Orville emerged from
their home. Escorted by the state
militia, troops OF regulars and brass
band. the Wrights were driven TO
platform before which was massed a
pageant representing events from the
founding of Dayton. 113 years ago,
down to the present time.
The chief event OF the celebration
will take place tomorrow. when
medals will be presented from the
National government. the State and
the City. After completing their
flights for the government. which are
to begin in Washington next week,
both the Wrights will probably sail
in August for Germany to take up
their work there

MORE
WITNESSES
NONE OF ARMY OF SERVANTS AT
CASTLE GOULD TO BE OVER
TRIAL PROMISED BY COURT.

NEW YORK, June 17.-When the
Gould divorce trial was adjourned
today, Justice Bowling announced
that longer sessions would be held
from now on, with the possibility
OF night sessions next week.
This action followed the an
nouncement of Mr.. Gould's lawyers
that small army of servants and
employees must be heard in support
of the charges alleging habitual use
of intoxicants by Mrs. Gould, and the
announcement that some fifty wit
nesses will be called in rebuttal.
The testimony today was confined
to employees of Castle Gould who sub
mitted testimony leading to further
establishing the excessive use of in
toxicants by Mrs. Gould. Nothing
materially new was introduced.

BISHOP RAPs sUFFRAGIsTs.
Declares Loud Voiced CIamor In
iures Dignity of Nomanhood.

ALBANY. y Y, June II
Bishop Doane, OF the Episcopal
church. today. in an address to the
graduating class OF St Agnes
school, took issue with woman
suffragists He said
Il cannot count 1t necessary, and
perhaps it is not wise for me to
caution you against the loudly
shrieked call to give woman the
right to vote and be voted for.
| am disposed TO think that the
quiet and decent appeal of
few of the so-called suffragists will
be so drowned in the sort of bowling
dervish performance of the so
called suffagettes that they will
fail of anything. At any rate,
the argument should be addressed
rather TO legislators than to you,
except so far as one is justified in
saving here to you that your woman
hood will gain nothing by suffrage
and is losing every day in its dignity
and its true influence by the hysteri-
cal clamor which is employed IN
the pursuit of this chimera
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1909-06-18

statutes directed against the latter
would seriously interfere with the
former. The experience of Germany
with smaller legislation is illuminat-
ing. But the Exchange, with the
plenary power over members and
their operations, could provide cor
receives. as We shall show.
Purchasing securities on margin
IS as legitimate transaction as a
purchase of any other property on
which part payment is deferred. We
therefore see no reason whatsoever
for recommending the radical change
suggested that margin trading be
prohibited.
Insofar as losses are due 10 in
sufficient margins. they would be
materially reduced if the customary
percentage of margins We're increased
la preference TO recommend legisla
tion. we urge upon all brokers TO dis
courage speculation upon small mar
gins and upon the Exchange TO use
its influence. and If necessary. its
power. 10 prevent members from
soliciting aud generally accepting
business on less margin than 20
per cent
Pyramiding. that is the use of
paper profits as margins for further
commitments should be discouraged.
SAYS the committee. In this con-
nection il is suggested that If brok-
ers aud the banks would make il
rule 10 value securities for the pur-
pose Of margin selling or collateral,
not at the current price At the NOM
ent. but at the average price of, say.
the previous two or three months
provided that such average price
was not higher than the price OF the
moment" the dangers of pyramiding
would be largely prevented.
we have been strongly urged TO
advise the prohibition or limitation
of short sales" says the report, mot
only on the theory that 1t Is wrong
to agree 10 sell what one does not
possess. but that such sales reduce
the market price of the securities IN
volved. We do not think that 1t Is
wrong TO agree to sell something that
one does not now possess. but eN-
peefs to obtain later. Short-sellers
endeavor TO select times when prices
seem high in order TO sell. and times
when prices seem low in order to
buv their action in both cases varying
to lessen advances and diminish de-
clines of price.
IN other words short-selling tends
to produce steadiness in prices which
is an advantage to the community.
No other means of restraining un-
warranted means of marking up and
down OF prices has been suggested
TO us. The Committee here calls
attention to the New York law OF
1912 which declares void all short
sales, and to the law of 1888 repeal
ing the act of 1912 and legalizing
short sales.
Manipulation of prices is divided
by the committee into two classes
first that which is resorted TO for the
purpose of making marke lot
issues of new securities, and second
that which is designed to serve mere
ly speculative purposes IN the en-
deavor to make profit as the result
of fluctuations which have been plan
ned in advance. The report then
says:
"The first kind of manipulation
has certain advantages, and when
NOT accompanied by matched
orders is unobjectional perse. IL Is
essential to the organization and car
rying through of important enter
nrises. such as large corporations.

boat near the Island of Burke, for
approaching too close to the bay on
the Finnish coast where Emperor
Nicholas and Emperor William met
today.
The proiectile from the torpedo
boat pierced the steamers bow and
one member of the crew of the
British vessel was wounded. The
incident shows the extreme neyvous-
ness which is felt for the safety of
Emperor Nicholas.

Income Tax Resolution
Put in and Sent to
Finance Committee
Recommend Expected
DUTIES ON WINDOW GLASS ARE
LOWERED - ZINC SCHEDULE
BRINGS UP DISCUSSION OF
DUTIES ON MINERALS.

WASHINGTON, June l7.-That
Congress shall have the power to
levy and collect direct taxes upon in
comes without apportionment among
the several states according to
population is the subject of an
amendments to the constitution pro
posed in a resolution submitted to the
senate today by Senator Brown.
The resolution proposes the sub
mission of the question to the legisla-
lures of the several states for their
approval. as suggested by the presi-
dent. 1t will be referred to the
committee on finance, from which II
is believed it will be reported favor
ably before adjournment of the pres
ent session of congress.
Immediately upon taking up the
tariff bill today, the senate agreed
to amendments previously offered by
! Mr.. Aldrich for the committee on
! finance relating to flint, glazed and
other surface coated papers aud
calendars, cigar bands. etc, composed
of Autographs.
BY a viva yoce vote, the senate
today agreed 10 the committee amend
ment fixing the duty on illustrated
post cards at Is cents per pound anc
p per cent ad valorem. Proposed
reductions of duties on window glass
below the house bill and the Dingley
LAW rates. was accepted as offered by
the finance committee.
During his speech on the zinc
schedule today Senator Hepburn OF
Idaho paid his respects TO the rep
resentatiyes OF the press. He divert
ed from the regular path of his re-
marks by an editorial suggestion in
Washington morning paper that
An ad valorem duty on tariff
speeches delivered in the senate
probably would not produce enough
revenues to pay the senators salries
Discussing this expression, he re
ferred To the Washington rep
resentatives of the newspapers as"the
joke sifters in the gallery" and de
clar that they were not interested
in the zinc schedule, he said that
IF you get up some diyerting con-
troversy that verges upon a disregard
of the rules Of this body, then you
are happy"
he said, the papers representatives
occupied palatial and luxurious quar-
ters in the capitol and were even per-
mitted ito walk on the floor of the
senate" He declared the paper to
have put itself in position of a guest
who misbehaves himself at his hosts
table"
Senator Guggenheim said that to
induce the bringing in of such ore
a bonus would have to be paid on it.
Mr.. Heyburn's amendment was re
jected on a viva yoce vote.
Suggesting that zine ore should
be on the free list. as is copper ore,
Senator Kean was interrupted by Mr.
of Colorado.
This may be the opinion of the
free trade senator from New Jersey,
but II is not of the tariff for revenue
Democrats from Colorado" said Mr..
who supported the proposi-
tion for a duty on all. grades of
zinc ore.
Senator Kean offered a substitute
for the committee amendment plac-
ing duty of so cents a ton on zinc
ore containing more than 80 per
cent of zinc. and with graduated
duties up to 81 ton on ore con-
more than 55 per cent of
zinc.

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE re-
port OF the committee appointed by
Governor Hughes TO investigate spec
nlations in securities and commodities
and the organizations used IN deal
ing therein was made public tonight
The New York Stock. the Consolidat-
ID Stock. the Cotton, the Produce, the
Coffee. the Mercantile, and the Metal
Exchanges and Curb Market were
thoroughly Investigated and recon-
mendations looking to Improvements
of existing conditions were made al
length by the Committee. The most
drastic finding is that affecting the
Mercantile and Metal Exchanges. as
follows. Under present conditions.
We are Of the opinion that the Mer-
camille and Metal Exchanges do
actual harm 10 producers and con-
sumers, and that their charters
should be repealed
Concerning speculation Ia general.
the Committee declares that L may
be wholly legitimate. pure gambling,
or something partaking Of the quali-
ties Of both. that ia some forms 1t
ls.a necessary incident of productive
operations; that 1t tends to steady
prices aud that for the merchant or
manufacture the sneeulatDr per-

Of insurance In law says the re-
port speculation becomes gambling
when the trading il involves does not
lead and is not intended 10 lead, to
fhe actual passing from hand % hand
of the property thar Is deal H.
The rules OF ali exchanges forbid
gambling as defined by this opinion
but they make 50 easy technical
delivery OF the property contracted
for. that the practical effect of much
speculation. in point of form legiti-
mate. is not greatly different from
that OF gambling.
The Committee makes no present
ment against short selling but de-
elares the tendency of such selling
is 10 steady prices. II is recon- mend
I'd that the minimum margin should
be 20 per cent and strong disap-
proval is expressed of branch broker
age Offices which supply liquor and
resort 10 other improper means to
induce speculation.
