FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS SPECULATIVE.
Public Participating to an Extent Un
 precedented in History of Exchange.

New York, Oct. 7.-The inference generally drawn from today's remark able recovery of prices is that "the public" always an unknown quantity to Wall street, is participating in the speculative mania. to an extent prob ably unprecedented in the annals of the stock exchange. On no other ground, said dispassionate observers, was 1t logical to explain the free and confident absorption Of securities wit messed after yesterdays violent up- heavaL
 Easy money, it is realized, consti- tutes an important element in the sit uation, despite the closer scrutiny of loans by financial institutions and the admonitions from those quarters against marginal operations.
 Much Of today's buying emanated from yesterdays most active selling sources and was materially assisted by urgent short covering.
 Increased strength of railways, which held more consistently than at any recent period. on a broader de- mand. was wholesome feature. Rep resentative shares in that list were one to almost three points higher.

Anaconda Copper came for ward with an advance of 3 3-4 to 75 b-S in the final hour, the whole list regaining its vigor of the early ses- sion and closing with a vast majority of net gains. Total sales were 1,500,- 900 shares.
 Recoveries of 5 to 10 points from yesterdays final quotations and of 10 to 15 from the minimum of that ses- sion were registered by many of the war issues. Foremost in the move ment were Crucible Steel, Baldwin Locomotive, Westinghouse and Colo rado Fuel, while Motors and some less distinctive stocks made equal head way.

 Alexander on Firing Line.
 For Philadelphia Alexander is al- most certain to direct his fire of speed and curves at the heavy hitting Red Sox, while Foster or Shore is thought Bill Carrigan. Burns and Cady will
 be the receivers behind the plate and the infleld and outfield combinations will be the same that figured so prom
 inently in the winning of the pennants.
 As they are expected to take the field there appears to be little difference in the offensive and defensive strength of the two teams.
 Based upon the averages for the sea- son just closed, the two teams should
 be very evenly matched. The Red Sox
 will have a batting average of .250
 and fielding average of :s74. Against these figures the PhilHes' lineup shows a batting strength of 254 and a field ing percentage of .966. It frequently happens, however, that in a series of

The game was marked by an avalanche of hits and runs, made possible by indifferent pitching and lax fielding. New York scored 15 times to Boston's eight.

OUR TROOPS HEALTHY,

In marked contrast to the fate of
the French army in its conquest OF
Haiti, when thousands fell victim to
plague and pestilence, is the expert
ence of the United States Marine
Corps, in its pacification work in that
war-torn little Caribbean republic.
Medical: officers, in reports just re.
ceived by headquarters of the Ma.
rine Corps in Washington, state that
the, health of the marines could not
be better, despite the fact that they
have often been called upon to march
twenty miles day over rough, noun
famous roads, under blistering trop-
ical sun, and under conditions of act
ual warfare.
Haiti, according to these medical
officers, has had for over hundred
years the reputation OF being one OF
the most unhealthy spots in the
world, and it has been the common
belief that no White man could live
there when subjected to hardship and
exposure. But it remained for our
marines to disprove this theory.
They .laye had great experience In
climates closely resembling that of
Haiti, and have learned to take the
necessary precautions SO essential to
the maintenance of perfect health in
the tropics.
Foot troubles were few and far be.
tween, the medical officers say, and
the deaths have been caused by bul.
lets, not disease.

AN ANSWER TO pAcIFlsTs.

William Graham Sumner, at one
time professor of sociology at Yale,
delivered memorable lecture on war
years ago. Tie Yale Review has re.
printed it and nothing has been writ
ten in these turbulent times that ex.
poses the impracticabillly OF the pacl-
fist program so well. There is food
for, thought in this portion Of Sum.
ner's address:
Can peace be universal? There
is no reason to believe it. 1t is a
fallacy to suppose. that by widening
the peace group more and, more it can
at last embrace all mankind What
happens is that, as it grows bigger,
differences, discords, antagonisms,
and war begin inside of it on account
of the divergence OF interests. Since
evil passions are part of human ma
ture and are in all societies all the
time, a part of the energy of the SO.
ciety is constantly spent in repress'
ing them. If all nations should re.
solve to have no more armed ships,
pirates would reappear upon the
ocean; tie police Of the seas must
be maintained. We could not dis
pense with our militia; we have too
frequent need of it now. But police
defense is not war in the sense in
which have been discussing it. War
in the future, will be the clash of ma
tional vanity and selfishness When
they cross each others path.
"If you want war, nourish doc
trine. Doctrines are the most fright
full tyrants to which men ever arc
subject, because doctrines get inside
of mans own reason and betray
him against himself. Civilized men
have done their fiercest fighting for
doctrines. The rec0nquest of the
Holy Sepulchre, the balance of pow
err no universal dominion trade
follows the flag he who holds the
land will hold the sea- the throne
and the altar the revolution, the
faith-t.ese are the things for when
men have given their lives. What
are they all? Nothing but rhetoric
and phantasms. Doctrines are al.
ways vague; it would ruin a doctrine
to define it, because then it could be
analyzed, criticized and verified; but
nothing ought to be tolerated waich
cannot be SO tested. Somebody asks
you with establishment and horror
whether you do not believe in the
Monroe Doctrine. You do not know
whether you do or not. because you
do not know what it is; but you do
not dare to say that you do not, be-
cause you understand that it is one
of the things which every good Amer
ican is bound TO believe in. Nov,

DEMOCRATIC CHRISTMAS GIFT,

The Democratic party has made

enacted, the deficit for the remainder
of this fiscal year will, according to
Representative Kitchin, the Demo-

Under this law anyone 50 fortunate
as to be able to buy farm during
this Democratic administration must
pay to the treasury so cents for every
$500 of the purchase price, and the
many who will be compelled to bor-
row must pay to the treasury so cents
on every $500 Of the mortgage. Anc
