on pleasure trip with me with no
more luggage than suitcase and
handbag, and she asserts that she was
perfectly comfortable. She had to do
some planning beforehand. but the
result was worth it all. She wore
woven underwear that did not need
the services of laundress, and a
stout walking costume which would
stand any kind Of weather. Her one
concession to gentility was black
India silk frock and a few silk waists
that would bear crushing. She was

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
sRADsTREET's TRADE REPORTS
Wintry Weather Affects Jobbing De-
mand and Some Retail Business.
Crop Outturn In Doubt.

weather conditions and the unset
tied outlook for prices of many COM
modities are causes assigned for the
quieter tone of trade in many lines.
Retail business, and to certain ex-
tent recorder demand from jobbers,
was affected by the return early in the
week of wintry weather. These in-
duences were, however, largely tenn
porary, and were largely Offset by the
decided benefit to the crop outlook
generally by the breaking of the
drought.
Doubt as to ultimate crop outturn
is still general as the main reason for
buying for fall and beyond failing to
take definite form, but there Is also
recognition of the fact that uncertain
ty as to the future prices of many
commodities is a drag on trade. In
a number of lines the evidences of ar
rested demand or pressure to realize
prior to new crops are visible in cas-
ing prices. The situation in the cot
ton goods trade, where prices are still
steady, however, has been bar to
active buying. Retailers are report
ed inclined to buy only for absolute
wants, and present cost of production
of goods renders the manufacturing
line Improbable at present prices.
"In the iron trade demand Is ap-
parently not equal to supply of the
cruder forms, and curtailment of pro-
duction, in evidence for some time in
the cotton trade, is now talked about
as being actively pursued by furnace
men. Liquidation of old supplies and
lower prices for the new clip are in
evidence in the wool trade. Collec-
tions are about fair.
Business failures in the United
States for the week ending with April

! The DEGENERACY OF The new {
YORK INDIAN.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
From ths Monthly Bulletin of the
State Dennrtlne1t of Health.

tuberculosis is very prevalent
among the Indians at all reservations
and is responsible for one death in
three, If not half the total deaths.
1t is impossible to get the actual fig
ures, for 1t seems to be nobodys bus
iness to ascertain them.
Alcoholism is very potent factor.
The white mans fire water has been
very largely responsible for the rapid
physical deterioration of the Indians.
Theoretically 1t is illegal to supply
alcoholic liquor to an Indian; practi-
cally he has little or no difficulty in
procuring all he desires. AS might
be expected, there is very great
amount of immoderate drinking.
1t seems to be reasonable conclu-
sion that tuberculosis was practically
non existant among American Indi-
ans before the advent of the whites,
and the fire water introduced by the
latter has certainly been an enormous
contributing factor; all the more for
the reason that the whites have,
through many previous centuries, be-
come comparatively seasoned with
regard to this stimulant, to which
the Indian has not yet accustomed
himself.
The physiques of the present gen.
Grafton of Indian children are imper-
fectly developed; the lymph nodes,
both internal and external, are affect
ed; there are conjunctivitis, blephar-
ills and corneal liberation; eczema,
cold assesses, pulmonary tuberculo-
sis, bone and joint tuberculosis. The
adult Indians of to-day have not the
endurance and stamina of their an
cestors. Exercise easily fatigues
them. Farmers cannot get the same
amount of work out of the Indians
they employ that is put forth by
white labor. Some of this may be
due to laziness or Is the result of the
racial traditions and customs in ac-
cordance with which the male Indians
hunted, fished and made war, and
left their squaws to till the fields;
but much Is due to the degeneracy
here noted.
The Indian of to-day is emaciated,
STOPPING, inferior to the white in
physique; he does not now present
the full chested, virile, robust figure
which characterized his ancestors be-
fore they came to enjoy the influ-
ence of the white mans presence
among them.

Perfumed Hats.

A new little luxury has been in
vented for the benefit and delight of
women. This Is the trimming of the
hat with perfumed flowers. Each ar
tificial flower is scented with its own
particular perfume, violets smelling
like fresh violets and lilies like real
lilies. The trick Is done by stitching
tiny sachets containing the desired
extract in the crown or In among the
leaves of the hat, and to come into a
roomful of women wearing these
scented hats is like stepping into
conservatory. Some women are go
ing to the length of scenting their
hats even when there are no flowers
in the trimming.

Thin fabrics are again to be in

lustrous silks and satins. The latter
require more trimming, and, oddly
enough, soutache braiding is seen on
some extremely smart evening gowns.

is a mass of braiding. Again, this

DAYLIGHT DANCES SOCIETY FAD.

DAYLIGHT DANCES SOCIETY FAD.
Daylight dances are the latest fad
IN Washington society, and they are
proving a welcome relief from the
sombre sedateness Of the Lenten sea-
son. AS might be expected, Mrs.
Nicholas Longworth is one of the
originators of the idea, and the
Countess Won Moltke, formerly Cor
nelia Thayer, is among her ardent
supporters. The dances are entirely
original entertainments. First and
foremost, no men are present, and
this is explained by a hardly less in
teresting feature-that much of the
dancing is of the Greek style made
fashionable by Isadora Duncan, and
bare feet and flowing draperies are
the rule rather than the exception.
Moreover, the dancers are devotees
of the health-and-open-air cult. They
usually meet early in the morning,
and all the windows are wide open,
so as to make the exercise as health
full as possible. Real exercise 1t is,
too, when the mornings are cold, for
the dancers have to keep moving nim-
bly, to save their toes from freezing.

APPEALS TO MERCHANTS
Local Businessmen Organize to
Go fer Northern Trade

As part of a plan to gain for San
Francisco its share of the Alaskan
business a committee has been appoint
ed by the local board of trade to con-
fer with Captain Conrad Stem, who pro-
poses to establish a direct steamship
service with the new Iditarod gold re-
gions. The committee consists of C..
R. Havens of Murphy, Grand 6 Co.;
Horace B. Sperry of the Sperry flour
company and James H. Harold Of
Wharton, Harold & Co.
Captain Stem is a veteran Alaskan.
1t is his plan to enter the Iditarod
from the south, cutting the cost of
transportation and the time almost in
half. The route embraces water trans
portation direct to the headwaters Of
Iliamna lake via Bristol bay and Dutch
harbor or to Iliamna bay on Cook in
let.
An announcement issued on behalf
of the board Of trade says: The di-
rectors of the board of trade have
been more than favorably impressed
with the opportunities this city will
have by the establishment of such a
route. San Francisco will derive not
only the business of outf1tting and
supplying the passengers who travel on
such route, but will be benefited all
around by the money attracted to an
Alaskan route"

OAKLAND, June 4.-Gee Gam for 40

media county, resigned today to go
back to China and spend his declining
years in the land of his birth. His
resignation will go into effect June 80.
When he sails for China he will be
accompanied by his son, Luther, who
is graduate of the University of Cal
ifornia. The son has accepted posi-
tion as instructor in the imperial uni
versity of Peking.
Gee Gam has occupied a unique posi-
tion for many years. Although called
on time after time to interpret testi-
mony in cases that involved tong wars
and often threatened by one side or
the other If he did not interpret testi-
mony favorably, he steadfastly refused
to be Influenced and in time the pro-
posals Of dishonesty ceased to come
and he was trusted implicitly by both
sides.
In resigning Gee Gam recommended
that Jee Kuong HaSv be appointed as
his successor.
