List shows Weakness.

w. B. Hibbs & Co. yesterday received
the following analysis OF the New York
stock market from Logan & Bryant:
The list was rather weak during the
forenoon, but later rallied on covering by
the room. Sentiment in the financial
community has become rather oearish
and as a result a fair amount OF liquida-
ton has been provoked, but even so the
extent Of same has hardly been sufficient
to warrant the conclusion that the posi-
ton of the stock list has been material
ly improved. We continue to advise the
view that dealings on the long aide of
the Industrial list should be restricted"

More As a Communication
Than ultimatum

Washington, May 3l,-Generai Car
ranza's latest note, bluntly question
ing the good faith of the United
States government, and with threat
of armed resistance, demanding a
withdrawal of American troops from
Mexico was presented at the state
department today by Eliseo Arredon-
do, the Mexican ambassador des-
ignate. Tonight a translation was
laid before President Wilson.
No one in official circles would at.
tempt to forecast just what course
the President might decide upon
There was complete unanimity, how
ever, in the belief that there would
be no immediate withdrawal Of the
Pershing expedition. High officials
said the de facto government so far
had failed utterly to demonstrate its
ability to protect the border against
bandits and expressed the opinion
that the troops would stay in Mexico
until this was done.
1t was suggested that the bellig
erent and uncompromising tone as
sumed by Carranza probably was
largely for effect upon the Mexican
public, and there was little dispose
ton to believe the de facto govern
ment actually contemplated an effor'
, to expel the American army b yforce
Mr.. Arrendondo left the impression
that his chief did not expec; the de
fant words OF the note to be taker
at their face value, when On handing
the communication to Acting Score
tary Polk, he gave notice that 1t wa'
not intended as an ultimatum. bu'

DEPENDABillTY

TO be dependable-to be singled
out as one who accomplish things,
Is tremendous asset.
Aman may be faithful or industr-
ious, or even capable, and still not be
dependable.
For the faithful man may be in
competent, he who is capable may
possess erratic tendencies which min
imize his efforts, and the industrious
man may be a blunderer.
But the dependable man is he who
can at all times be depended upon to
do that which is set for him to do as
It should be done.
He has learned by experience how
not to do things, and with this has
come naturally the knowledge of how
things should be done.
Like every other quality, depend
ability can be acquired. Like every
thing else that is desirable, its &C
QUESTION requires effort. But the re
ward Is worth the struggle.-Ex.
