LINCOLN PICKED JOHNSON
From the Detroit News.

From the Detroit News
Senator Benjamin +. Wade Of Obio
was largely instrumental in setting
Andrew Johnson's feet in the way
that ultimately led to the White
House. At the opening OF the year
1864 there was pronounced opposition
in the republican, party to the re-
election of President Lincoln. The
PRESIDENT was not inclined to look
upon the situation as serious, for the
reason that there were no skillful
leaders in the opposition
But when the Wade manifesto
came out. showing that the opposi-
tion had such a resourceful leader
as Ben Wade at it's head. Lincoln
decided that he did not wish to have
Tor his running mate again Vice Pres
ident Hannibal Hamlin of Maine. He
believed that IL he could have for
his running mate a former democrat
or clear war record it would be a
great help to him.
Gen. Dan Sickles was sent to Ten
nessee to inquire about Johnson. who
was making a record as recon-
struction governor. Johnson was Sc
lected as the republican candidate for
the vice presidency and triumphantly
elected. On the death of President
Lincoln he succeeded to the office of
chief executive within a few months
after the Inauguration, and began an
administration that brought more
trouble to the White House and to
Congress than any other in the his
tory OF the country.

BONDS WERE EASY,
TO 0FA|R[Y STEADY

NEW YORK. March 12.-Railway
bonds did not have the same measure
of improvement that railway stocks
did in the market of the day. this be-
cause there was no short interest IN
bonds. while there was considerable
short account in rail stocks.
Further weakness developed in Penn
Sylvania issues The ten-year ,S sold
at 1904 as against 102as yesterday
morning and l01 at the close last
night. The new 6i.s on heavy trans
actions fell another half point to 9Si.
This brought them down a full point
below the figure at which they were
offered to the public. and apparently
so largely overSubscribed.
Most of the other railway bonds We're
either unchanged or slightly lower.
Baltimore and Ohio IS a 81. Erie gem
eral As at 40 and New York Central
dehenture 6s at S1io were all practi-
cally where they had left off yester-
day. Missouri Pacific As went down
another fraction to 5laa. Among the
induStrials the Chile Copper IS lost an
other half point. selling at % y. Lib
erty bonds varied very little. but were
inclined to work somewhat higher.
The United Kingdom u $ of 1913. were
as against S6ia the high of the week.
Just at the close, however. these bonds
| jumped back to S5li, which was last
nights final price. Belgian 6s were a
fraction higher at 80. The trading II
together was light and unimportant.
here was nothing said about new Of

NEW YORK. March 12-Discovery
that block of stolen liberty bonds
worth $4,000 had been sold for half

Lewis of Kings county. who is con-
Quoting an investiEa ton into an al

opinion that such transactions had
forced down the regular market pric

years.

A MISSING LINK,
From the Detroit News.

'Pithecanthropus Erectus." js tho
name given by DR.. Eugene Dubois of
the Dutch army medical service to an
imaginary creature which he con-
structed from fossilized remains
found by him in the Island Of Java,
These fragments consisted of a thigh :
bone. two teeth and the upper part of
a skull. and were unear rthed in 1881
1892 on the left bank of the Benea-
wan river near Trinil.
The skull appears to have been low
and depressed, with strong supracil-
larry ridges: the teeth are very large
and the femur is quite human. The
teeth and skull were found together.
the femur a few yards away wear
afterward. DR.. Dubois held that the
fragments were portions of the same
skeleton and belonged to a creature
halfway between man and the high
er apes and of the pleistocene age.
Many eminent authorities have de-
clared against DR.. Dubois theory. The
general opinion is that the bones are
human, dating back to an age when
humanity was of very low order,
with a skull capacity standing at the
level Of the smallest which have been
occasionally found amongst the re-
putedly lowest savage peoples.

NEW YORK. March 12.-For no
reason connected with any develop

a somewhat better feeling in today S

1t might have been the recognl-
ton that peSsimism in speculative

the desire of spectators on the short

But at all events. after an uncer-
tain opening during which a rev
stocks were driven down to new
lows. prices turned upward. The
turn in the railway list had begun
to show yesterday. 1t had been ap-
parent that railway stocks were be-
ing actively covered while indus
trials were dropping.
This Improvement continued in the
railway list today. with Union

not well founded. and also took more
