!, NEW YORK. June ia. P.)-
Following the trend Of the stock list

The stock market today made gem
eral but only moderate recoveries
from the preceding days severe de-
preston. In few noteworthy in
stances, chiefly rails, the rebound car
ried prices close to last weeks final
quotations. Prices were extremely un-
settled in the first hour, that period
witnessing q further extensive weed
ing out Of margined or speculative
holdings at additional declines of l to
3 points.
Thereafter the tone was more sta
BILE on a marked reduction of opera
tions. Altogether, the course of the
market seemed to justify the opinion
prevalent in many quarters that the
recent liquidation had created strong
or technical conditions.
Stock exchange officials refused to
discuss reports dealing with that insti-
tution's latest policy of conservation.
1t Is understood, however, the eS-
change has the cooperation of the
banks nits efforts gradually to elm
mate reckless speculation.

support in the last half of the session

TARIFF WAR HALTING

PARIS, June 14.-An' appeal to the
French Cabinet to make every effort
to bring to close the tariff war with
Spain that is tying M commerce be-
tween the two countries has been
made by a group of southern French
cities, including Bayonne, Biarritz and
Pau. According to tthe appeal the
zasis of the war is influence exerted
by certain French wine interests for
protection against Spanish wines, and
the result of the tariff wall is a tre-
mendous influx into Spain of German

1t Costs You More
to rot buildings than it

THECK the costs. Compare

paint.
And buildings do depreciate
rapidly unless they are painted

To enjoy the biggest saving in

Hogs Are Lower

(From the Oregon Journal.)
Nine loads Of livestock came to
North Portland for the Tuesday morn
ing trade. Higs were steady to quar-
ter lower. cattle were steady for good
stuff and slow for others while sheep
and lambs were considered steady.
In the cattle alleys only a handful
OF fresh stuff was reported in for the
day. Really first class hay fed cattle
indicated practically steady tone but
grassers and half fat stuff continued
yer yslow with no inclination on the
part of buyers to take hold except at
price losses. Feeders reflected the
same appearance with a loss Of 25c
and an extreme of $500 for choice Of
ferlnes.

HAVE NEW IDEA OF MARRIAGE
Public Discussion Of the subject In

a. Significant

A series Of articles on love and mar
rage Is appearing In japanese news
papers and magazines, as sign Of the
modern tendencies Of the japanese
mentality. Professors In psychology,
school teachers and writer's of note are
prominent In the discussion on reform
Ing the old matrimonial system, all
advocating more freedom for personal
choice.
According to the old custom the par
ents chose bride and bridegroom and
the marriage was performed without
the interested parties having known
each other. Marriage was considered
q duty towards country and family.
the religion of ancestor worship be-
ing It's principle The young couples
lived with the parents and the bride
owed complete obedience to her
mother-in-law.
The custom u now prevalent for the
young people to meet long before the
marriage takes place 30 that they may
know each other. and to live apart
from the family 10 no longer con-
sidered undutiful. Yet. Of late, the
tendency appeared to marry for loves
sake and out Of personal choice. This
new and romantic ideal Is so strong
that all means are tried to obtain II.
entailing Opponents, suicides and
notorious family dissensions. Hence
the discussion for greater liberty and
more social life, which are quite OPP
posed to the old social system Of
Confucius, that men and women should
keep apart and marry for duty's sake
and not for love.
