FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
DEPRESSING INFLUENCES.
General Conditions Make It Easy to
 Force Stocks Down.

New York. Oct. 16.-It required little effort to force stocks lower today. Sen timent was decidedly bearish, and par ticularIy so among the more important professional traders. Pressure was not severe, but apparently no one wished to buy Numerous shares fell one to two points. and then trading became dull The market developed a better tone for a time, but later eased off again to the lowest figures of the day, with increased pressure toward the end.
 In a few cases quotations dropped back to the prices which prevailed dur ing the June slump, taking them to the years low points. Most of the lead CTS reached new low levels for the present long decline. The stagnation of the market when the tendency was upward indicated as clearly as the bearish attitude of traders the paraly sis of the buying power
 Selling was believed to be largely for the short account, although there were reDOrts that classification with general conditions was leading to the unloading of real stock in considerable volume.

phy stand? He is against Lynch, first, last and all the time. WAy2 Because Lynch broke up the Murphy Taft own ership of the Philadelphia club when he drove Horace Fogel out of organized baseball. Lynch has evidence to prove that Murphy prompted FegePs attack on the honesty of baseball and Mur- phy prefers to see him outside or the leagues headquarters Murphy's g can- didate is Joseph D. O'Brien, former president of the American association and last years secretary of the Giants. But OBrien hasn't a chance of landing on top, for the simple reason that Murphy has been urging his candidacy.
 Honest, Fearless, Blunt.
 Why all this opposition to Lynch? There are several reasons. Lynch is an honest man, fearless and blunt. He is not a hand shaker, neither is Ee an after dinner speaker. He under stands the umpire problem, because for many years he was the best umpire in the major leagues. As president of the league he has been compelled to decide many disputes and invariably he has made enemies of the clubs against whom his verdicts have gone But that Is not strange when 1t IS remembered that the late H. c. Pull liam became a nervous wreck because of the faultfnding on all sides while he remained at the leagues helm.
 If Lynch was even tinged with dis honesty Horace Fogel and his attor- neys would have crushed him.N But when Fogel on the witness stand was asked whether he knew a single in stance of crooked dealing in organ ized baseball he replied in the nega- tive. Persons who seemed to think that Lynch was inclined to favor the Giants pulled in their horns when he rendered the Brennan forfeiture de- cision, which was a hard slap at the New York club, and which was par tially reversed by the leagues directors when they ordered the last inning of the protested game to be played out.
 Victim of Tinhorns.
 Ban Johnson, president of the American league and every club own CT in that circuit believe that Lynch is not only honest, but is a victim of narrow minded, tinhorn politics in the National league.

Brookline, Mass. oct. 16.-Francis Ouimet, the open golf champion, led high class field in the annual fall open tournament on the links of the country club Brookline, today, The field included low. handicap players from New York and the middle west as well as from New England. Ouimet's score of 79 was two shots better than that of his nearest competitor, F. H. Hoyt, his Woodland partner.
 Ouimet was the only player to break 80 and considering the condition o3 the turf and the driving rain, his per : formance was not less brilliant than was his play for the open champion ship over the same course several weeks ago.
 Ouimet wilI-meet H. W. Stucklen Brae Burn, in the first round tomor- row. Stucklen's score today was 90.

LYNCH WILL FIGHT.
National League President Will Defend
 His Honor and Reputation,

Driven to the wall, where he in tends to fight tooth and nail in de- fense of his honor and reputation Thomas J. Lynch, president of the Ma t1onal league. has become convinced that he will be thrown into the dis card when the annual election is held in December unless there is a sud den turn in the tide. Counting noses 1t may be said here that Lynch is opposed by practically every club in the National league, although several of them would be inclined to vote for him if they should find at least four of the leading ma9nates in his favor
 It has developed that the ringleaders in the revolt against Lynch have been trying to win over one more vote, so that when the election comes up in December five clubs, a majority, will cast ballots for Robert w Brown of Louisville, according to the New York Sun. August Hermann of Cincinnati IS Browns campaign manager and he has obtained pledges from c. H. Eb- bets of Brooklyn, Barney Dreyfuss of Pittsburgh and Schuyler Britton of St. Louis, it is said, to vote for Browns election. As Hermann therefore con- trols half the leagues votes he can prevent the election of any other can didate except Lynch, who would re- main in office in the event Of a dead lock
 Giants Against Lynch.
 Although Lynch was elected to of fee through the influence of the late John T. Brush, it is declared by base ball politicians that the owners of the Giants have turned away from him because he overruled Umpire Bren- nan's decision in the memorable for feited game in Philadelphia last sum mer. But nobody has been able to learn whether President Hampstead of the Giants is inclined to support Brown or not.
 The same conditions apply to the Philadelphia club. If the late w. H. | LocIIe had lived he would have lined 1 up with the Hermann -Ebbets- -Drey- | fuss faction in the plan to discard | Lynch and substitute Brown. w. F | Baker former police commissioner, | who now is the president of the Phil | adelphia club, has not committed him | self to Brown or any other candidate, | but he is known to be inclined to side | with the ntf-Lynch forces, if they show dominating power. Lynch how ever, treated the Philadelphia club | with absolute fairness in the Brennan forfeiture. and Baker openly com mended him at the time.

MAKING THE BEE WORK.

Not the least marvellous example
OF human ingenuity is the domesuca-
ton of the bee. In the early days OF
slavery in the southern states, there
was a class of poor whites VINO
eked out living by finding bee trees
in the forests.
The Africans hollow out log. rub
it with aromatic herbs. and hang il
in a tree near the wild bees nest.
After time, the log becomes covered
with bees and honey when it is un-
hooked and hung in tree nearer
home. and the thing is done.
In Palestine the owne.. frequently
remove their hives OF bees up into the
loftiest mountains a the flowers dis
appear from the lower regions. and
put them in the wooGs that the bees
may gather honey from the mountain
thyme and other plants that flourish
in autumn in the cool heights.

We wish to heaven that we did
know it; that the facts of life bore it
out But alas, innocence, purity and
modesty, when accompanied by ignor-
ance, leave to roguery a loophole
through which mischief is often
wrought. The best of mothers may
do her best but if that best doesn't
include making daughter acquainted

Innocence, yes. And purity and

Forty convicts in the Joliet prison
have formed a word of honor COM
pact with the state of Illinois, whereby
they have gained their freedom to a
limited extent. At least they are
able to be trusted with their own
liberty.
The compact recognizes that the
spark Of honor is never extinguished
in the human breast. 1t is an extern
sion OF the modern theory that con-
victs need not be and should not be
treated as animals. but may be treat
ed as men.
These convicts are to work on the
public roads Of Illinois. They are to
live in an unguarded camp under the
supervision of two foTemen. Their
working clothes are to be those of the
day laborer and they are to have the
clothes of free citizens to wear on
Sundays and holidays. They will be
under no more physical restraint than
IL they were free agents.
= 1t will be interesting to note to what
extent. II any, the confidence of the
state will be abused. Can it be hoped
that one or more Of the cOnvicts viii
not take advantage of the opportunity
to escape? They would display their
untrustworthiness and folly by doing
so. Their chances OF pardon would
be jeopardized.
The same experiment has been sue
cessfuily tried in the west. Occasion
allv a man breaks faith, but on the
whole prisoners are benefited both
morally and physically. They are
given a taste of the free life under
circumstances which causes them &c

WHEN RIGHT YOU CAN AFFORD
TO WAIT

For thousands Of years men have
been saying. on dress occasions, that
honesty is the best policy" that "a
soft answer turneth away wrath" and
that thrice is he armed who hath
his quarrel just"
Yet no sooner does a statesman
proceed to put any of these truisms
into practice than critics begin to
sheer or to chide and old Mr.. Worldly
wiseman turns up his nose in con-
tempt.
You say. of course. with what con-
descending superiority the foreign
press, with few exceptions, offered
sympathy and counsel to Pres Wilson
on his failure" TO work a quick
miracle in Mexico, And this was the
burden of their talk:
Morals have no place in diplomacy.
1t is quixotic to insist upon going be-
hind the face Of the returns. When
treachery and murder land a cynical
usurper on the despot seat of an out
ragged republic, you should put aside
all your scruples, all the professions
Of democracy you have been making
before the world. and. for the sake of
finding the easiest way through a
difficulty you should do as we did,
recognize the face accomplished and
ask no question. Either that or fight"
To such depths has militarism
plunged Christian nations.
1t is the happy opportunity and.
therefore, the duty of the United
States to lead the van in the worlds
advance. 1t scored greatly for human
welfare when it forced the breath OF
life into prophetic view the time
when the disputes of nations will be
settled upon the whole as peaceably
as are now the disputes Of individuals
But that service was not greater
than the service Wilson has rendered
by putting Uncle Sans foot down or
dishonest revolutions. emphasizine
that the clock had struck on inter

Cheerfulness is one Of the Oldest
and most powerful remedies fol

against dyspepsia. Everyone knows
the influence over appetite and good

Pope tells us that Lord Landsowne

After the battle Of Bunker Hill. a

In the chest was reported as dying.
His comrades. who were watching
him, finding one of their number had

Voltaire tells the story of a lady
who, seeing her daughter very i'll,
said she hoped God might take all

her daughter. The husband OF the
daughter asked her gravely If she in

laugh so heartily that she was
