| CAPE MAY. n. j., July 11.-Notwith
standing the fact that after the week
| in which the Fourth of July comes there
! is usually iull in the social activities
of summer resort that rule has been
| contravened this week by reason of the
fact that more than the ordinary num-
Der of patrons have remained at the
hotels. and thereby swelling the crowds
and giving the resort the cosmopolitan
appearance into which it has grown in
the last few. years. While one of the
largest colonies here is from Washing
ton all of the eastern states and not a
few from the central western and south
ern states are to be found among its
patrons.
The golfng events have been leaders in
the social matters which have taken
place The women of the golf club have
continued, during the past week. to take
an active part on the links. an0 such
noted PLAYERS as Mrs. Frederick "
stovell of Philadelphia. Mrs. c. c: Van
derbeck of Wilmington Mrs. Theodore H.
Vetterlen of Philadelphia. Mrs. Caleb F.
Fox and Mrs Ronald II. Barlow go
daily to the links.
The dancing at the Marine Casino has
been restricted to the very best OF the
manner in which the cottage colony has
taken hold of this place OF amusement.
They conceived the idea of having dances
with only those whom they desired 10 pc
present. and Tuesday and Friday nights
have bought up the tickets for the en-
tire summer season so that the public
cannot be admitted on these nights.
So popular has become the Cape May
Golf Club that the membership has been
restricted. and it is understood that the
oily entirely reached
Monday. No person can play on tnese
links unless they are introduced by a
member of the club Of good standing:

POOR WOMEN OUTLINE
TROUBLES TO PREMIER
Suffragists of East London Tell
Wage Grievances to Mr..
Asquith.

LONDON. July 1.-THE recent meet
ing between Prime Minister Asuuith
and the women representing Sylvia
Pankhurst's East End Suffrage Club
is unique in English history. for never
before have woman workers of the
lowest social class told their wage
grievances to so high parsonage.
The average wage of women
throughout the country. Mrs. Julia
Scurr told the prime minister. is but
seven shillings a week. Many women.
she said. supported children and par
ents on this, although the immigration
board has held that woman cannot
live in London on less than IL shillings
and pence a week. To small wages
and the severity of the struggle was
attributed the large number of sui
cides among married working women
of the city. Mrs. Scurr said the poor
law attached harsh and humiliating
oughly hated by the INDECENT.
In justifying the demand of the
working women for suffrage, the dele
gates told the prime minister that
there did not seem to be any other
way of making their wrongs known
to the public. Women are still sent
to prison for inability to pay their
taxes. and few of those who suffer
from drunken and brutal husbands can
afford the luxury of divorce.
illustrates Her Argument.
One of the suffra gists. Mrs. Hughes.
opened her argument by laying on the
premier's table brush that retails at
10 shillings.
For my share in making that l get
pence said Mrs Hughes.
Her pay. she explained. was pence
for filling 200 holes with bristles. and
her husband got two pence half-penny
for finishing the brush. To support
her home required fourteen hours
work day.
Another delegate said she was rear
ing family of six children under the
of % shillings a week as decker.
A pitiable story was related by d
woman. who had started work in !,
jam factory at the age of eleven.
When left widow with two children
she shared her small room with an
unfortunate girl whose baby had been
born in workhouse. AS the widow
wages could not feed them all the girl
drowned herself and baby in the
Thames.
Mr. Asquith. in reply said that it
would be perhaps difficult to get sub
stantial and intelligent reform in the
East End unless the women thmselves
had a voice in choosing the members
such that it could not be solved by
any short cut. He promised to con-
slider their case fully.
Although the premier treated the
delegates as non-militants and at
tackled militancy. the East London
Federation. which they represented,
has never repudiated militancy. Nor
have the delegates.

MARKET REPORT
Stocks and Bonds.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-More than
at any time since the renewal of bus
mess on the stock exchange, today's
market was governed by conditions
growing out OF the war. The admin
istration's protest to England against
detention OF American marine conf
merce caused an abrupt halt In the
advance in prices which was in full
swing at the previous days close.
Wall Street viewed the subject from
various angles and the general opin-
lon seemed to be that q new and
significant development had been in
jected into the International situation.
The market opened with its accus-
toned irregularity, leading stocks
evtncing heaviness, with u few gains
among unimpOrtant issues. From that
level a rally ensued, the recovery I'm
a few instances restoring stocks to
the preceding days best. Before mid
day the list fell back again and for
tile balance of the session no impor-
tant changes were RECORDED. Dealings
showed q marked decrease compared
with recent full sessions.
Another decline in exchange on
London to the lowest price In almost
10 months gave rise to some discus
sion of gold imports. Bankers were
unanimous in declaring that this mar
ket can not hope to get gold from
London, but q return of some of the
old gold shipped to Ottawa in the ear
ly stages of the war fs within the
range OF probability. Time money
was quotably unchanged.
More unfavorabie railroad state
ments for November were submitted,
that of the Canadian Pacific showing
n net decrease of 1924, 00O. with n
loss OF $30S, 900 for Union Pacific and
500, 10000, for Illinois Central.
Bonds were irregular .verging 20
ward weakness in some Of tho low
priced issues. Total sales. par value.
aggregated 81 .0S5. 600.
There were minor advances in all
issues of government bonds on call.
