New York, MAY 1.-THE persist
once with which stocks were absorbed
odav had an influence in stiffening
speculative confidence and formed the
tana Of The market. The sources of
tbe huving were not always manifest
and il was met. at times, by effective
selling prompted by an obvious de-
sire 10 realize profits on the recent
advance. Such conspicuous market
leaders as the Hartman Pacifics,
Northern Pacific. Chesapeake & Ohio,
and at times. United States Steel,
we're held back by realizing sales of
this kind.
No striking new event occurred to
account for the strong undertone Of
the market. The quieter one of the
wheat market today took the edge off
the effect of yesterdays sudden slump.
There was a realization that spec
ulative maneuvers in that market
shared with crop conditions in the
causes for the action of the price.
The after-effects of the government
crop report have been, however, to all
lay the most serious of the anxiety
which was felt over the amount Of
damage done to the grain crops by
the severe weather of the latter part
of April.
4 good deal of attention was paid
to the copper metal market and there
were many rumors current of de-
Velopmcnts in hat trade. Official
information OF copper transactions be-
yond the periodical publication of the
statistics of the copper producers as
ISOLATION, is not to be had. The price
of the metal advanced again here, but
fell back in London. Last months
large accumulation was attributed
mostly to the leading interest II its
control was said to have been increas-
ed sufficiently as a consequence to en-
able il to exact the better prices from
some of the recent buyers. A some
what better zone also was said to be
growing up in the iron market.
Brooklyn Transit was the subject
of dividend rumors Wabash was
affected by the revival of old umo
of new control. Adjustment of the
trunk line dispute over import freight
rates and proposed Increases in sub
urban passenger rates out of New
York were factors in the days mar
ket. Closing stocks:

Sterling Bulletin: No town will
become a good business center so
long as its business men rely on a
few merchants to make the effort to
bring trade to town. Too often the
men in a few lines of trade are about
the only ones that reach out for Gus
toners. Other merchants wait until
these men induce the people to come
to town and content themselves with
trade that naturally drifts to their
place. A public-spirited man should
ask himself if he is doing his part
to attract people to come to town to
trade in helping the entire business
community, and no town is success
unless all lines are working to ex-
tend the trade as far as possible and
the circle in which the town is the
business center.

ITHE TRUTH ABOUT PROHIBITION

THE Truth ABOUT PROHIBITION
Governor stnbbs told the truth
in his speech in the convention hall
at Kansas City when he said that
prohibition prohibits in Kansas and
Iit pays. Any talk that there is open
violation OF the law in this state
is rot. Abilene has not place where
liquor can be bought and II It were
put to a vote today whether or not
there should be such a place 1t
would be defeated by an overwhelm-
ling vote. Abilene like other towns
has prospered and does not need any
income from licenses. 1t has so lit
tie crime that no day marshal has
been employed for over year and
the city has had no need of any, for
there has not been time when one
was called for when the matter could
not be cared for otherwise.
Prohibition alone has not made
Kansas prosperous. Big crops and
high prices have been largely re-
sponsible for that. 1t would have
been prosperous under high license,
lust as Nebraska is, but 1t would
not have been so good a state to
live in. Nor is 1t true that prohibi-
ton has attracted population. The
state lost 1900 population last
year; It has practically no more peo-
pie than twenty years ago. But 1t
has kept here the cream of earth and
