New York, July 15.-The hesitant
course which stock market prices
have evidenced for the last several
days developed today into distinct
downward trend, even though in the
main recessions were not large.
Transactions were once again at
low level and unquestionably most
of the pressure exerted came from
spectators for the decline. Particu
lar heaviness developed in the steel
shares, with steel common ending the
day at a price that was only little
better than the low for the year.
Certain of the specialities lost
from l to Q points and the railroad
list was also reactionary.
Two Outstanding Causes.
Taking the market as a whole. the
greater curtailment Of operations appears
to arise from two causes The one Is
a lack Of belief on the part OF the public
transactions, the other that the profess
sionais are a bit reluctant to assume
heavy commitments on the short side, in
view of the lack Of floating supply OF
stock on any upturn. Such condition
makes for dwindling activity and mar
row price changes.
The foreign exchange rate again showed
an easier tendency in rates. Sterling
closed at $362A, decline of nearly &c.
Exchange on Rome. Paris and Amster-
dam was also reactionary. At the low
for the day, s3.61%, sterling was only
during the first week in January. The
outstanding exception to the weakness
in continental rates was in the case of
marks. which were practically unchanged
from the preceding day.
Reports of mercantile agencies for the
past week show that continued quietness
exists in most markets, but 1t is added
that current adjustments Of one kind or
another are regarded as shaping the way
for the anticipated revival. The revision
Of prices and wages. which is still taking
place 1t Is asserted. will lead to more
normal conditions and benefits will ulti-
mately accrue from the transition.

More of Patrick Henry.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Patrick Henry was born in the
grand old County Of Hanover al
Studley. His youth gave no presage
OF his future greatness. Indeed the
few advantages his parents were aOle
TO offer him were sadly neglected.
At an early age, his father set MIN
up in a little mercantile business.
and he promptly made a failure OF
it. When he was only Is years OF
age and out OF employment ne
married a girl as impecunious as NM
self
When the Virginia delegates as
sembled in convention on March "
1TT5. in the Old Church at Richmond
Va. the sentiments which stlll IN
fiuenced many Of the members were
strongly loyal. They sincerely wished
for a return Of the friendly inter-
course with Great Britain and were
averse to any means Of violence.
1t was not so with Patrick Henry
He had long since read the true
, character of the British court anu
saw that no alternative remained Out
abject oppression or heroic supHiS-
sion.
The convention was dominated by
Ine ucle gates from inc AS"NA y,
ties, opened very mildly and olo
fair to be a session OF earnest re-
monstrance and humble supplica-
ton. but the delegates from the
upper counties were hred with
quite a different spirit, and they
found a leader in Henry around
whom they could rally.
Like a thunderboIt he hurled MS
ringing resolutions in to the con-
vention. He was, indeed. infused
with the bold spirit OF the patriotic
representatives of the upper coun'
ties
The time for duplication and re-
monstrance had passed. A militia
must be established, and the reso'
buttons for the protection and de,
Tense of the country were passed
and adopted by the members o.
both the upper and lower house.

Henry: He was a spirit to rais'

in and direct It."
