Mexican Bonds Weak.

Affairs in Mexico were brought to the
fore again by the resignation Of the cabi-
net there. Mexican Railway bonds were
weaker than on any previous day since
the attention Of the country was directed
to the mobilization Of American troops
on the border. This latest development,
however, was not regarded in Wall street
as valid grounds for unrest, but, on the
other hand, 1t was pointed out that the
contemplated changes in the Mexican adj
ministration might go far toward reliev-
ing the situation.
Multiplying evidences Of the backward
ness of trade were received from various
quarters. The fortnightly report Of the
number Of idle cars disclosed a consider

number Of New England mills principally
In the rubber and textile industries, were
either curtailed or halted entirely.

NEW YORK, March 25.-The week END
In the stock market was a fitting wind
up to the days Immediately preceding
Trading In the first hour amounted te
about 5000 shares. and the total for the
two-hour session was under $1,000 shares
The net result was a number Of frac-
tional declines with q few gains. News
bearing upon financial. industrial and
mercantile conditions was not Of especial
ly favorable import.
There was a fair demand for Ameri-
cans at better prices in London. but the
market there sold or later on forecasts
Of the New York bank statement. In
Paris the securities market was further
depressed as a result Of the Russo
Chinese situation, and the market In Ber-
lin was featureless. The weekly state
ment Of the Imperial Bank Of Germany
was interesting in showing decrease OF
over $1,000 900 in loans and discounts,
and a gain Of S3,25OO 600 In gold.

street. This latter course has been fol-
lowed tar more generally than most peo-
Pile dream OF. The number Of stockhold-
ers OF record is larger than ever before
and the floating supply in the hands of
brokers and commission merchants is
thin at all times. The explanation Of this
is that the stun Is In the individual
strong boxes Of hundreds Of thousands Of
real owners instead Of being concentrated
In Wall street.
It Is this state Of affairs that makes i'm
possible the small manipulation Of the
black horse cavalry on thte stock ex-
change and Of the various pools and syn
dtcates that were accustomed to make q
fat living by organising raids against GER
tain stocks and booming them at will.
These practices are still features Of the
market, It Is true. but they are not car
ried on with the success and freedom of
other days. Furthermore, it IL impossi-
bic for the raiders by ordinary tactics to
drive out or brighten out any considerable
mass OF holders. They are no longer at
the mercy Of manipulation and care
nothing about the minor ups and downs
Of prices. The stock market nervousness
of these days IL confined largely to the
professional element and to the semi-pro-
fesiona1s who try to catch the daily or
weekly swings In prices.

ing, June Sth, which captivated the
audience. She has a charming stage
presence and an agreeable person.
atty. Her voice is rich and power
full and splendidly trained. Before
singing a song she always explains
to the audience the meaning of the
composers. And indeed it might be
said that between songs She gives
musical lectures which helps the
audience to a clearer knowledge of
music, and hence one who makes no
pretentions as to musical knowledge
can better appreciate the concert.
She explained how as a race we had
unframed musical powers not pos
sessed by other races, and that if we
would only cultivate these natural
musical talents which God has given
us, we could sing ourselves to wealth.
She emphasized the fact that there
were three requisites in singing. The
first requisite is brains, the second
breath and the third voice. TO be a
fine singer she said required an edu-
cation. BY proper intellectual train
ing one can grasp all that he is being
taught, and wisely direct the vocal
powers. She gave most interest
ing explanation of the muscles Of the
stomach and back. by which tone is
formed, and demonstrated clearly
how these muscles are exercised and
used by great singers.
Nine. Hackley is a great race wO-
man, and is deeply concerned as to
our future She told Of her struggles
and trials to reach the high eminence
to which she has attained, and in
spired the audience to high hopes by
her noble counsel and advice. AS
the GROWING act to a worthy repre-
sentative of the race, and in recogni-
ton of her great musical ability, we
would do ourselves honor as peo-
pie to take the first steps toward the
establishment of a National Afro
American Musical Conservatory, at
some central point in this country.
at the head of which this famous
singer, and great teacher should be
placed, where our youths can go and
sit at the feet of this noble instructor
and race lover and learn race patriot
ism and inspiration from this musical
fountain of knowledge.

Our fellow citizen and old friend
Harry Crews has been appointed to
a position in one OF our city parks
by the superin tendent of public in
struction, J. Wesley Ash Mr.. Ash
has more colored men working in
his department than any other head
of departments. To our knowledge
Charley Schramm has none, neither
has Mayor Hanna. So it might be
wise for our colored voters to think
about those things when next city
election comes around. All we ask
is an equal chance in the political
position and a square deal. Mr.
Crews is a good man and worthy
man for the place.
