FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ERRATIc.
Trading Was Dull Except During the
 First and Final Hours.

New York, July 2.-Stocks pursued an cratic course today, price changes being more than ordinarily confusing Some standard issues were up while applying to numerous specialties Trading was dull except during the first and final hours, when the weak ness of United States Rubber and St Paul created general unsettlement. Because of the passing of the rub Der dividend, interest centered mainly about that stock at the opening. Initial sales consisted of 5000 shares at 45 to 46, against yesterdays close of ,51 7-8. From this level the stock declined to A 1-4, making moderate recovery later.
 Meantime other stocks, particularly war specialties and few railway in vestment shares. had manifested a ten dency to break away from rubber. Im- provement was well maintained until sudden weakness developed in Canadi- an Pacific, which lost it's gain of the opening and soon fell to 142, fraction above it's low record.
 In the last hour the entire list for feited it's gain on a precipitate decline in St. Paul, which fell 3-4 to S3 3-4 on rumors affecting the maintenance of it's dividend. As the St. Paul earnings are known to be unsatisfactory, ere dence attached to these rumors. There
 
 SteePs strength was ascribed to the optimistic statements of trade authori- ties which found partial confirmation in further price advances of certain manufactured materials. American Cans early rise was based on the be- lief that the company was participat- ing in some large war contracts. Among secondary railways Missouri Pacific was conspicuous for it's new low price of 7-S. Total sales of stocks amounted to 342, 1000 shares
 Sudden withdrawal of pressure against exchange on Paris was one of the interesting developments of the day. Demand bills on Paris made marked recovery and remittances to all other European centers, including London, also strengthened.
 Further heavy ceiling of interna- tienal bonds, presumably for foreign interests, was a feature. Total bond sales. par value, $2,810,000.
 United States bonds were unchanged.

contract If. however. Rice has an offer to go to Cornell it is unlikely that there would be aggressive oppo- sition from Columbia While his ser- vices are appreciated and while there would undoubtedly be an effort made to hold him the matter would hardly be pressed if 1t was Rice's wish to leave. To have him stay where his heart was not in the work would be no particular asset for Columbia for the successful coaching of a crew re- quires as much the enthusiasm of the man at the head as that he be en- dowed with a particular edaptability for the work through his knowledge of rowing.
 Rice receives s2,5oo for his services at Columbia and if Cornell wants him any increase which Columbia might make would be topped. for rowing is probably more of a hobby at Ithaca than. at any other university, and money for it's. support is provided freely. It is said by many that Cor nelPs offer is already in Rice's pos session and that the present year will be his last at Columbia Courtney has always expressed the wish to pick his successor and no other seems to be so logically in line for the place as Jim Rice.

LIBRARY FOR
:. SOLDIERSIS
GROWING FAST
Movement Started BY General
Carter for Benefit of Enlist
ed Men Great Success

Books for the new army library at
SchCfield Barracks are pouring in
from all parts OF the United States,
in response to the appeal OF Mai Gen.
w. H. Carter for an up-tO-date library
for the soldiers Already the depart
ment commander has received more
than 5000 volumes Of good sound fic-
ton, biographical sketches, travel
stories and other literature Of inter
est 10 the general reader Many OF
the books are brand new, the paper
covers never having been removed
The collection is at present stored in
the army rest rooms, on Beretania
street, awaiting the completion OF the
library building.
Gen. Carriers appeal for books has
been met with splendid response.
The department commander some
time ago wrote a circular letter to a
number Of friends all over the United
States, explaining the isolated posi-
ton OF Schofield Barracks, the poor
accommodations for a large part OF
the garrison, and the scarcity Of rec
reation. He asked that books be do
mated for a post library for the enlist
ed men
And soon after the books began to
pour in. Every steamer brought hun
dreds OF volumes and they are still
coming in. When the proposed build
ing is completed and the books ar.
ranged the enlisted men OF Schofield
Barracks will have a library that
Carnegie might well envy.
: Work has not yet been started on
the library building, but will be in a
short time. as soon as the site has
been approved in Washington. Ii
will be located near the permanent
post at Cashier. and will be of the
bungalow type, we'll lighted and with
plenty OF writing tables
The soldiers OF each troop, battery
and company have their amusement
rooms adjacent TO their barracks, but
these are used for all sorts of recrea-
tion-pool, music, cards. etc. The new
library will fill a long-felt want. It
will be a place where men can spend
o quiet hour reading or writing, and
II is certain that It will prove one of
the most popular moves in the history
OF the army.

guard in an unfavorable light In the
eyes of some people and IL has I'M
questiOnably prevented many good
men from enlisting therein, - 49,.
The action of the army league in
this respect is a coInmendable one
and should receive the support Of all
good Americans
Sooner or later the government may
be obliged to take drastic action in
regard to this matter. II has taken
years Of uRwarranted agitation and
abuse to injure> the national guard In
this manner Ii will take considerable
counter action to again place IL In
the esteem OF all the neople. where IL
rightly belongs.
Another point wish to bring ont
Is the promiscuous use of the uniform
or parts of the uniform by persons
unauthorized to wear such. One OF
the first things that officers are re-
quired to teach their men Is TO take
pride in their uniforms. What effect.
then, does il have on the men Of the
regular army or the militia when they
see eNpressmen, cab drivers, members
of lodge organizations, drum corps.
etc, wearing the same uniform as they
or so near alike az to be undistinguish-
able to the eye OF the ordinary lay
man. These men may be honorable
enough in their respective callings.
as far as that Is concerned. but sure
ly they are not entitled to wear the
uniform of the American soldier. and
1t is doubtful II such action would be
tolerated in any other country. II
does not tend to make the uniform re-
spected, either by the men of the ser
vice or the public in general, and no
doubt this is one reason why men In
uniform are not welcomed in many
public places.
There is a law restricting the use
of the uniform to the men Of the SER
vice. It should be enforced TO the
letter. ~
These are some of the reasons why
young men do not join the national
guard. These are some of the things
that should be brought before the
powers that be at Washington.
