DEMAND FAILED
TO HOLD PRICE
Reaction Toward the Former
Price Levels Prevailed Dur
ing the Day

New York, May 13-The demand fol
stocks proved too small today tt
maintain prices at the level fixed BY
yesterdays rise and mild reactiot
occurred.
Today's losses were slight however
as bearish traders were reluctant tc
follow the market downward. Mon.
day, with its possibilities of supreme
courts decisions in the antitrust
cases, is too near at hand to permit
of the safe extension of speculative
operations and traders on both sides
OF the market Displayed more than
usual conservatism.
A significant development of the
day was the ready sale of the Sill ,000,-
OOO three year five per cent notes Of
the International and Great Northern
railroad, issued in accordance with
the reorganization plan. Applications
to the underwriters from large insti-
tutions were sufficient to absorb the
ing was made. The rapid sale of
these notes was regarded as strik-
ing illustration of the large demand
for short term securities.
Another indication of the existence
of large investment demand, de-
spite the dullness in the stock market,
Is found in the sustained strength OF
tho bond market.
Reports which concerned propos-
ed large bond issues by several rail-
roads, were not confirmed officially,
but 1t is generally expected that sew
eral issues of new securities will be
brought forth in the near future. Lo-
cal banks report unusually apathy on
the part of interior institutions to-
ward the forthcoming issue Of $780,
100000 Panama bonds. No doubts
are entertained, however, as to the
success Of the fotation.
Bank exchanges at the leading CEN
tiers as reported this week present "a
better contrast with last year, having
fallen off seven per cent while the
decrease in the preceding week was
more than twelve per cent. Tomor-
rows bank statement, on the basis Of
the known movements OF money
should show small cash gain by the
banks.
Bonds weer irregular. Total sales,
par value, $4,104,00O. United States
coupon 4's declined Ia on call.

London, May 13-Money and dis
count rates were firmer today. The
conclusion of the settlement on the
stock exchange failed to increase
business except in gilt-edged securi-
ties, copper shares and foreign issues
which were firm and hardening. Home
rails and rubber stocks were weak on
liquidation and bearish rumors. The
other sections closed irregular. Amer
lean securities opened steady and
about unchanged. The Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific dividends induc-
er fair buying and prices ADVANCED
from quarter to three quarters dur
ing the forenoon. Later selling caus-
ed recessions and the market closed
easy.

BRADsTREET'S
WEEKLY REPORT

New York, May 13-BradIHreetka
today says:f i! y
Better weather with high, in fact
mid summer temperatures, has help
ed retail trade in most large centers.
This fact, coupled with more favor
able crop conditions, has made for a
rather more cheerful tone in jobbing
and wholesale lines, but as yet retail
ers or final distributors stocks seem
ample. In fact reduction sales are in
evidence rather earlier than usual,
and the net gain in jobbing sales is
slight.
Collections are not much changed
from earlier reports, ranging from
slow to fair. Iron and steel are rath-
er slower, railroad buying is almost
absent and other lines using iron and
steel are buying conservatively. Coal
and coke are not very active and rail-
road traffic is light for the season.
Structural material seems to be in
fair to good demand in many centers
but building returns show that in
dustry falling steadily behind last
year in most leading centers and as
whole there is rather firmer feel
ing in the cotton goods line, a reuec-
ton partly of better weather condi-
tons, of renewed frrnness in raw ma
terial and of reports. Of large buying
of print cloths by leading printers.
One explanation Of this latter is, how
ever, that printers who are also
cloth manufacturers, can buy cheap
er in the open market than they can
manufacture. Tbs Pacific coast lum-
Der Industry is reported dull and
lower prices ruled for raw material.
In the furniture trade, some western
manufacturers are reported contem-
plating curtainment.

 TO POLE, SAYS EXPERT

WASHINGTON, Jan II. The house committee on naval affairs completed its examination of Cap tain Robert E. Peary today on his claim to attainment of the North Pole, Hugh c. Mitchell, a skilled computor of the coast and geodetic survey, testified that he handled Peary's observations. MT. Mitchell said he had figured that Peary, when he made his furthermost camp, was less than five miles from the Pole, and that in his marches on that day of the climax of his trip he passed within one and one-siX teenth miles of the actual pole. MT. Mitchell believed that Peary's obser- vations could not be faked. The committee will hear Admiral Ches- ter tomorrow and review the testi- mony in the case at an early exc cutive meeting with view to pass ing on the bill proposing Peary's re- tirsment as a rear admiral.

DAWSON. Jan. 27. - Max kollm. SOUrdOugh artist, writes that he is spcnding the winter in San Francis GO. and plans to blow back to dear old Dawson next spring. He will come early Mir Kol'm says that Mrs Kollm has been in poor health. but is improving.
 A dinner was given in the Golden Gate city. so Max writes, at which were present several DawsCnits. While they were seated at the table a strange looking young man, tall. thin and peering out from be- hind pair of glasses. walked up and slapped Max on the back and called him "Maxey." Immediately there was a scramble to the feet to aSce rtain what this swat meant. The new comcr jollied Max and the others for a little while and finally declared he was Arthur V. BUel, who has left the mark of his genius in Dawson as the greatest carto mist that ever hit the North. The boys at the dinner party could not believe at first it was Buel, but soon were persuaded. and had a happy session initiating him. Buel, says Max was negotiating 10 go to work on the San Francisco Call.

DRESSES DON I FIT
 SUFFRACETTES
ENGLISH SUFFRAGET TELLS or "HEARTlESS ENT" or
 HERSELF AND COMRADES.

Aren't English jailors the rotten sort? And they're just that sus. piCious.
 What do you suppose they die when they had taken away all our clothes save one garment a che mise?"
 Emaline Sylvia Pankhurst was ad- dressing members of the Illinois Equal Suffage association at the Fine Arts building. She pictured the fight English women had made by petition to get recognition by he house of lords.
 Then she told of the phase of the fight where the suffragets secret. cd themselves in the galleries and shouted votes for wOmen'' iu sea son and out of season. and from this she went on to the conflicts i'll the streets with the mounted police
 And finally they threw Us in jail,' she said. And this is the mos' dreadful part of all that I have 10 tell you"
 As Miss Pankhurst moved toward the dread climax the room became eXpectantly silent.
 lHtE were llOl tOllleIl lO Sidb lis by the back of the neck and drag us around" she said. Tt did not satisfy them when they caught woman by the arms and dragged her on her back through the court yard-or caught her by the feet and dragged her so.
 Tt did not appease their meanness of disposition when they struggled with my sister so that her hatpins lacerated her face and neck and allowed the blood to drip on her dreSs-SO that We had to dye that dress.
 They herded us together and then ordered us to take off our clothes. We were forced to remove all but the chemise And, as if that indig- nity wasn't enough
 They searched us!
 They went through our hair, took out the hairpins and the sidecombs to see if some deadly weapons were not concealed there.
 Then they brought us the worst sort of clothes l ever have seen. They were made of the coarsest sort of wool - brown and green. The top garment and the neither gar ment had little difference in shape. They were shaped like arrow heads. You can imagine how comfortable they must have felt.
 They gave us no time to make selections, but threw one bundle of clothes at one woman and an other at another. It usually fell that the small woman got the big size and the big woman could only put part of herself into the suit she got.
 Sometimes the women refused to take off their clothes and then the jailors literally tore their clothes from them"
 Four young women sympathizers from the University of Chicago served as ushers. They were the Misses Mary Morrison Maginnes, Jesse Taft, Clara Schmidt, and Gar nett Trott.
 "Well go to jail for the cause in this country. if it's necessary" said Miss Mary Morrison Maginnes, but don't you think it would be possible for such women as this audience is made up of to win men to their way of thinking without resource to mil itant tactics?"

FUR CATCH IS VERY SMALL
Caribou Plentiful and Hunters Are
 Not Compelisd to Trade furs.

EDMONTON, Alta, Jan. 29.-That circumstances in the North point to one of the smallest fur catches on record is the report brought by travellers and traders who have been through these districts where the largest fur catches are usually made.
 Caribou are more plentiful this winter than ever before, and it is easy for the Indians and Eskimo to kill them and supply themselves with meat for the winter. For this req son these Northern natives. who are naturally lazy lot, prefer to sit around to tramping through the snow looking after their traps. So the caribou meat is allowed to take the place of the bacon and other provisions they would receive from the traders for their furs.
 Early in the winter rat skins were selling for $1 per dozen at Fort Smith and other belts are not enticing to trappers when the ther- mometer is all the way from 30 to
