NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, Nov. 27.-Stock Exchange
operators marked time, today. The char
actersucs OF the market We're its apa-
thy and its steadineSs in the face of the
still unfaVorable position of money.
Traders deemed it hazardous to enter
upon new ventures owing to the tension
in money, but at the same time there
was no pressure to sell. The result was
inertia. The attendance on the floor of
the exchange was small and the trading
was reduced TO a low point. The APP
proach of the Thanksgiving holiday was
partly responsible for the dizziness. There
was some pressure on Canadian Pacific
and Reading and Lehigh Valley sold off
just before the close. Rubber and Cen
eral Electric We're strong. Otherwise
fluctuations of stock We're narrow enough
to deprive the movement of any s1gnifi-
canoe.
Money was easier today with max
imim of per cent. for call loans. This
was the opening rate, at which renewals
We're made and from this point quota
tons declined until before the close
there We're offerings at per cent. RMS
center was called upon for nearly w.
100000 gold for shipment to Canada ana
San Francisco The movement to CAN
ada, which absorbed the greater part OF
the gold was aseribed to preparations on
the part of Canadian banks for the quar-
terly statement as of November 30.
The comparatively small amount OF II
,quidations in stocks induced by hlSh
money rates is accepted as an Indication
of Wall Streets inclination to take a
hopeful view. One factor doubtless mas
the most persistent optimistic view had
in the strength recently as to the out
come of the Balkan war and the broader
political situation in Europe. Traders
are also influenced by the heller that the
revival i'm the countrys business VIII
make itself felt on the Stock Exchange
once the war crisis is past and the strain
in money is relaxed.
Trading in bonds was relatively larger
than in stocks Distribution was good
and prices were well maintained. Total
sales, par value. 81, So, 900. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.

Good Old English Custom.

There was an old-fashioned custom
on the English road which | suspect
Is now obsolete, or practiced only by
the vulgar. Journeys Of length being
made on horseback, and, of course by
brief stages. it was usual always to
make halt on the Sunday in some
town where the traveller might attend
divine service and his horse have the
benefit of the day of rest, the institu-
ton OF which is as humane to our brute
laborers as profitable to ourselves. A
counterpart to this decent practice.
and remnant of old English hospital
tty. was, that the landlord of prin-
cipal inn laid aside his character of q
publican on the seventh day. and IN.
yited the guests who CHANGED to be
within his walls to take a part of his
family beef and pudding. This inyi
tation was usually complied with BY
all whose distinguished rank did mo-
induce them to think compliance de
rogation; and the proposal of bottl,
of wine after dinner, to drink the land
lords health, was the only recon

TOBACCO Is WORSE
THAN OTHER HABITS
DR.. Charles Pease Believes Race Is
In Danger Of Annihilation
From Self Poisoning.
ADVANCES UNUSUAL VIEWS

President of Non-Smokers League
Believes Tobacco Should Be Pro-
hibited by I.aw-Says Condition of
Degeneracy Has Reached Alarm
ing Stage.
New York, N. Y.-According to a
recent repor+ from Washington, of
20,00o,oOO children in this country
100000, or rs per cent, are defec-
tive and require medical attention.
Dr.. Charles G. Pease. president of
the Non Smokers Protective League
of America. has his own explanation
of this state of things.
Dr.. Pease declares that the toboc-
co habit is doing more to bring about
degeneracY among the American peo-
pie than is the liquor habit, and he
brands tobacco as more harmful
enemy Of society than opium
What can be expected" ne asks,
of race which mas made a vogue
of suicide, physical and moral, By
subtle self poisoning? The consump-
ton of tobacco. tea, coffee, chocolate
cocoa, opium, liquor and cocaine has
increased enormously.
The use of tobacco has become SC
general that people no longer regard
! it as poison. The same people think
that opium is disgusting and that its
use is sign of degeneracy. Yet to.
bacco is far more poisonous thar
! opium, and the harm caused by liz
uor is not nearly so great. Deatt
has resulted from placing tobacco
leaves upon the unbroken skin o.
course, this happened in the cases Of
/ people whose systems were not uset
20 the poison"
DR.. Pease is said by n1any to be too
radical in his condemnation of The
general use of liquors. DR.. Peas,
i points out that the use of tobacco
tells upon the whole race, while tn,
use of liquor tells upon compare
lively few individuals, and he assert
that the moderate use of liquor i
not as harmful to the individual as j
4 moderate use of tobacco.
