STOCKc AND BONDS

NEW YORK, April 20.-The stock
 market was again largely under the i influence of an progressively confident short interest today, many popular is- sues. especially those recently in : speculative favor recording additional i severe price depreciation.
 i In most quarters there was an evi- dent disposition to attribute the fur ther decline mainly to monetary con ditions Call money was compara- lively easy, however.
 Brokers with connections at interior points report that the federal reserve board had renewed it's opposition to any relaxation of credits, advising that these be restricted to legitimate com mercial and industrial enterprises. Prices were at lowest levels in the last hour. the heaviest selling of the session being concurrent with news of the introduction of bill before congress which aims to prohibit spec ulation in stocks and bonds.
 The most vulnerable issues compris- ed steels, equipments, oils, motors and their accessories, together with nut merous specialties, which are depend ent upon the course of distinctive in dustrials. Sales amounted to 1850, 900 shares.
 Little improvements was shown by the general bond list, several of the Liberty issues making still lower rec ords, with heaviness among interna- tionals Total sales (par value) az gregated $14,250,OOO old United States bonds were unchanged on call.

POPULATION SWINGS EAST.

Unscientific observers may be in of the United States at F'orty-second Street and Broadway on Saturday night or at Broad and Chestnut streets on a parade day or at a troll ley entrance door in the rush hour.
 This does not mean that the state of Charles Warren Fairbanks Thomas R. Marshall, James Whit comb Riley, and Booth Tarkington is congested with humanity, celebrated or otherwise. The little game which the statistic:ans play, every ten years Is based on a hypothesis that every individual in the nation has the same weight and that the centre of popu- lation is the point about which Amer lcan continental territory, conceived as plane, balances perfectly.
 In 1790 this gravity mark was fixed in Maryland, twenty-three miles east of Baltimore. Progression westward was steady, at the rate of about five miles a year, until a spot near Bloom irgtOn, Ind, was attained in 1910. An
 eastward swing is now said to be dis cernible, for the first time in our ! records.
 Whether this is the result of the war industries on the Atlantic sea i board, or any check in western deve1- | opment, due to immigration condi- l tions or to other consequences Of the | general conflict is yet to be ex- l plained.
 i In any event the Census Bureau has a novelty to exploit and a mild | sensation to examine, even if the public does remain comparatively 1 calm.-Philadelphia Public Ledger.

IRVING FIRST USED "C0THAM''
 FOR NEW YORK

New York, March New York ia Gotham and New Workers are Knickerbockers. Everybody knows that But not every one knows that one man, Washington Irving, is re- sponsible for both nicknames. There was an old Dutch family named Knickerbocker in New Amsterdam and New York, but whether that fact led Irving to adopt the name for his Diederich Knickerbocker's s History of New York is undeter- mined.
 It is rather common belief that he
 adopted the word from the old Dutch custom of wearing unusually wide knee brooches which was trans planted from, old Holland to New Netherland. At any rate the name soon caught on and it was not many years after the appearance of his book before it came into general use as a synonym for a native New Yorker.
 Gotham, too, as a. local name, makes it's first literary appearance in
 Irving's book. Possibly the name
 was not wholly original with him as i a Gotham noted for it's wise folk 1 had existed in England for centuries. i A rather interesting account of this l name was written by Grosvenor 1 CIarkson and published some years
 ago in pamphlet form by the Goth 1 am National Bank.
 aThe Writer devotes most of his at
 tention to old Gotham and the repu- ! tation it's inhabitants possessed fol | wisdom, which is trait many 1 American Gothamites also claim. For I hot n11 2 hpar f butt. of British humor. Many indeed 1 were the fantastic deeds attributed in derision to the famous wise. men | of the town. Of historic interest is | their encounter with King John
 where by appearing foolish they showed their wisdom, for their ap
 parent folly warded off his anger
 It also fastened the name of wise or all it's inhabitants
 The three wise men who went tt sea in a tub were reputed to bt i Gotham dwellers, although thu
 chroniclers do not say whether thu
 town was American or English | CIarkson recounts that James Kirk Paulding, who was President Val Buren's Secretary of the Navy. SC up the claim that Gotham was purely American name and deridet
 all efforts of the English to claim fo l their isle the original city of tha name He claimed the three wis men for New York and recountet that therefore Gotham was thre i times as great as the towns of an , tiauity which never possessed nor ) than one wise man at a time. l Most of those who speak : Gotham and Knickerbockers neve realize that there ever was tim
 when those names were not an in
 tegral part of this city. For thos l who do and want to know the req son why there is a wealth of con v flicting data on the origin of bot D names to be found in various his
 1 tories.

NEWARK GOING ON RENT STRIKE

Newark March Backed by the mayor and the city Law Department, Newark is going on rent strike similar to that inausurated by Jersey City recently, April l, against all landlords who attempt to raise rents more than 10 per cent.
 Mayor Gilien at a mass meeting in the Council Chamber of the City Hall, offered the services of the Legal De- partment free to those feeling the pressure of profteering landlords.
 Resolutions passed at that time were to be presented to the New Jer-. sey Legislature in Trenton asking that all housing bills now before tha: body be given immediate attention. In addition to this, the City Comnis- sion has before it the request of the
 mass meeting that an ordnance ba
 passed compelling all landlords who
 intend to raise rents more than 10
 per cent. to file a declaration of their intention with the City Clerk. This would then te turned over to the City Tax Board, with the idea that assess ments on the property should be rais- | ed accordingly.
 Dr. Noah Deiger led the commit tee elected when it conferred with the Clty Com mlSSHOnor 1f1 regard 10 SuCn l an ordnance.
 More than 1000 dissatisfied ten | ants jostled their way into the mass
 meeting, while another 500 clamored in the City Hall corridors for admit i tance. Great and sustained applause met Commissioner of Revenue and ] Finance James F. Cannon of Jersey i City, declared to be the originator of | the rent strike" when he made his | appearance. The crowded hall rock l ed with laughter and cheers as he 1 told how Jersey City in ninety days ! brought the rent-gougers to their l knees asking for mercy. The same | expedition can be attained by New 1 ark, he said, if they persist in the 1 methods so successfully used under | his direction in the neighborinS l city.
 i Several landlords were present at the mass meeting, evidently with the l intention of discovering to their own i satisfaction just how much sincerity | of purpose there might be behind the | impending strike" From remarks 1 gleaned from them as they left at the l conclusion of the meeting it may be said that they were quite convinced of the efficacy of the method and the
 serious intention to carry it through Attempts were made to eject them, b.:
 vote, from the assemblage, but pr William F. Hanrahan, chairman ol
 the meeting ruled they should be l permitted to stay.

was going to take them, and later did take them to my home at 45S West Eighteenth street.
 Five months passed by and I was working at another place when one day while I was away from home the detective and the lady who had left the clothes went to my apartment and got them. My husband met them on the stairs and he came with them to the place where I was employed where they arrested me. My husband did not know anything about what had happened. He felt very badly but he has forgiven me and has been here to the prison to see me every day"
 Mrs. Jay speaks English with 9 noticeable French style of phrasins. T told the Judge,'' she added plaintively, that I was guilty if he means take the goods, but I die not stole them.''
 Alfred Binz, proprietor of the Ren dezVous, said that he had received ] a letter from the complainant regret | ting that she had made a charge against the girl.
 i When my husband has finished ] his service we were going to makt 1 ourselves a happy home in thi i country, and now see how it al 1 ends,'' said Mrs. Jay.

SMELLS MERGED
 ON CABBAGE DAY

One advantage of those New York tenement house and known as walk up'' apartment houses is that they leave little to the imagination. The walls and floors are so arranged that the tenants above, below and on eith- CT side know at least the plots of all family quarreIs; half opened doors give a. sure index upon all callers who climb the stairs and the various menus can be tabdlated, accurately by a before dinner trip through the halls.
 In the old days a. hearty meal of boiled cabbage cooked industriously in a lower floor kitchen used to be considered grounds for moving in the middle of the month by some of the others because the fumes spread through all the apartments with a thoroughness equalled only by the buildings cockroaches when one fam fly used roach powder.
 But now there is no place to move to and besides most families really like boiled cabba ge-at least after ii has been cooked. They find the smell of it's cooking not half so bad when il is in their own kitchen.
 This state of affairs has led to wha might be called a ladies agreement in one walk up".- Thursday ha: 1 been officially designated as "cabbagr l day.. On Thursday all those who lik, i cabbage cook it and eat it. Those. wht | don't go to the movies in the after noon and to their friends for dinner | This arrangement has been found t l satisfy the appetite and spare tn I nostrils of all concerned.
