Notice now The steps in Christ's

He entered into relationship with thr
one He wished to help. When the
woman came to the Welt to draw water
He asked for a drink. BY doing this
He allowed her to do something for
Him, SO that by reciprocity He might
be able to do something for her. This
kindly request surprised the woman,
but 1t won her heart.

New York STOCK Market.

wall St, New York, July 1.-STOCKs
Ihe course of the market during the last
Few days convinced traders that it was
easier to put stocks down than to put
them up and stocks received little sup
port most of the morning. Except for
the court approval of the Hartman dis
solution plan, which apparently was dis
missed as a market factor, there was no
change in domestic situation. Cable ad-
vices told of renewed disturbance in the
Balkans, and there was some apprehension
that the state of affairs abroad might re-
suit in a new drain of gold from this
country. London prices for American Sc
curitieS reflected some pressure from the
continent. and foreign orders here were
mostly on the selling side during the
early trading. Suspicion that the spas
modic selling of certain stocks was being
utilized to conceal covering elsewhere led
afternoon and the list was pushed up
slightly above yesterdays close.
Bonds were steady.
Trading was a nominal basis at the
opening today and price changes were
small. Even the Hartman stocks were
little changed, Notwithstanding the courts
approved after the market closed yesterday
of the dissolution plan. Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific rose fractionally at
the opening but the next transaction
stock to move more than a fraction was
Canadian Pacifil, WI ich declined a point.
Prices gave way under what was be-
ieved to be a repetition og aggressive
bear operations by a well known specula-
tor. Failure of the Hartman shares to
reflect benefit from the courts APPROVAL
of the new diSintegration plan assisted
the raiding tactics. Union Pacific, Read
ing, Lehfgh, Baltimore and Ohio and
Chesapeake and Ohio yielded a point the
last named touching a new low record.
Retirement of short contracts caused pref
ty full recoveries.

steps have been taken by the SEN
ate committee to get possession of the
letters and papers Mr.. Mulhall pre-
served, bearing upon his alleged oper-
atoms as lobbyist. Subpoenas were
issued today for James E. Emery, who
Mulhall declared in his articles was
the chief lobbyist for the National
Association of Manufa cturers at Wash
1ngton; for J. H. Michael former chief
page of the house, whom Mulha1l
claimed was in the employ of the man
uracturers' association, and for a num-
Der OF other persons named by Null
hall as having been active in the
affairs of the association and in con-
nection with the efforts to influence
legislation or control election to con-
greSs.
Demands from members of the house
for a separate investigation of the
Mulhall charges by a special commit
tee of that body were made in many
Senator Reed CMo), Democrat
member of the committee, went to New
York. 1t was believed here that his
hurried trip was in connection with the
securing of witnesses or testimony
bearing on the more recent develop
ments that have followed the lobby
probe
The president discussed the Mulhall
charges briefly with the correspond
ents.
Lobby Out of Business.
The lobby is out of business so far
as national legislation is concerned
President Wilson said. 1T has ceased
to ernbarrass the administration. When
the present investigation ends, lobbying
as profession will be classed with
the dodo and other things extinct
Mr.. Wilson wore the placid express
sion of the cat that had swallowed the
canary. In a suit of immaculate linen
which set off to advantage his spare
form, the president looked cool de-
spite the heat of the capital in mid
summer. His first remark indicated
that he was greatly pleased with the
Mulhau lobby developments, although
for obvious reasons he did not care to
them in detail
He said he was in favor of investi- |
eating all charges, and had no doubt |
the committee would have a free hand. !
The president told his callers the ac- |
cusations in the Mulhall statement had |
been called to his attention just be- |
fore the publication.

ment of wantonness, or aggrandize-
ment, or lust of gain; and no men of
purer spirit ever lived than those who
waged it upon the respective sides. 1t
found the states, in it's beginning,
like a loosely tied together bundle Of
faggots; and at its end, and when the
wounds of it had been healed, it left
a great sturdy oak as the central body
of our union, with strong, sturdy
branches of intense vitality firmly at
tached to it. Hence, whatever ones
views may have been upon the right
eousness of the issue, wholesome re-
spect to those of each side must be
rendered. Such gathering as this
we have witnessed today would not
otherwise have been possible.
1T is through pain that we attain
anything of value; it was through pain
that this nation found itself; and, upon
the great foundation thus secured and
established, proceeded to advance with
giant strides to the forefront of the
nations of the earth.
Can we not today, penetrated as
we are by the deep spiritual meaning
of this impressive gathering, surely say
that it was worth it all; that those
silent martyrs lying forever enshrined
upon this field, did not die in vain;
that you who at the front bore the
storm and stress of that great con-
f1ict, and those who waited in trembling
anxiety at home and bore the woe and
agony of suspense and uncertainty, did
not suffer in vain? Can we not truly
say that until this people had with
stood some such stress this, there
was no assurance that their first great
experiment of the ability of men to
govern themselves was surely success
full? Shrink from the facts as we may,
do they not prove their case? Would
we within, or those who stood doubt
ing without, ever have felt the as
surance which is now felt? Do we not
know that those whom the God of ma
tions hath Joined together, no man can
put asunder?
Last Memories Happy.
Apart from the deep significance
which your meeting has, and from the
important page which it will fill in
history, is it not good for you as in
dividuals to be here today? Your last
memories of this field will overlap the
earlier ones. 1t will no longer picture
itself in your memories as field of
carnage and suffering and woe, but a
field of smiling faces and happy hearts
and great joys. And so the picture will
go forth to the nation, and it will re-
joice with you, and the whole world
will realize that not only has govern
ment of the people, by the people. and
for the people not persisted from the
earth, but that it will not ever per-
ish.'
