WOMEN WHO DON'T WANT
INDEPENDENCE TO BE PITIEc

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6.-[Editor
Herald: Where is Marion Martin? Ev-
cry day I have watched the papers to
see where she is going to speak on
woman suffrage. In Utah she was
much sought after, and her fame has
gone back east. Speak out, men; don't
you want to hear her too? Her letters
woke up so many of us that do want
to hear 1.-The lion' of woman suffrage
lecture.
Really I don't know which are to be
pitied most, the women who do not
want to stand on their own two feet
or the few men who still object to their
doing so.
The women object through ignorance.
So many of them try to stand still or
live backwards.
Fear notl We won't hurt you.

Mr.. Mushet's political ambitions are
taken seriously by two of the news
papers of this city, but it is doubt
full whether the people will take seri-
ously the newspapers that are support
ing Mr.. Mushet. The Mushet boom is
not hardy. The people are not readily
reconciled to inconsistency, and how
man with Mr. Mushet's record can
pose as a friend of labor, a friend of
the children, friend of education, a
friend of Greater Los Angeles, is a
riddle that might be answered by the
Sphinx. The Herald gives it up.

Features of the Days Dealings in Al
The Leading Stocks.

New York, Oct 27-The feeling of I'M
certainty which has invaded the specula-
ton in stocks was manifest in the halt
ing and irregular movement of prices to-
day. The principal sources of this I'M
certainty We're found in the doubtful in
depreciation to be placed on the quarterly
statement of the United States Steel Cor
poration and in the problem of the inter-
national money market Measures of sup
port were found necessary to prevent the
price of steel from running off and va
rlOuS explanations We're found necessary
to break the force of disappointment over
the financial showing. This was eSpe-
cally true of the item of untitled orders
on hand at the quarter, regarding which
is was urged that an advantage for the
corporation lay in having RETAINED from
filling up it's order books at the lower
prices recently prevailing and in a rising
market.
An echo of the recent rumors of a spe-
cial development which was heard in a
new intimation that some financial plan,
instead of being acted on at yesterday S
meeting is simply held in allegiance. De-
Ve1opments in the money market We're
called favorable and an easier tone was
perceptible both for call and time funds.
Offerings We're made by most of the i'm
portant money lenders who have been
time past. These offerings were deemed
significant of a change of policy on the
part of in5uential financial authorities
towards the money market.
1t became known that the city of New

placed them with purchasers in Paris.

maturity of similar warrants to the
amount of $25 100000 which are held abroad
and which fail due Nov. !. The relief thus
