D velopments over night did not shed niucli light on either tho crop or strike situation and as theso Influences are rapidly lifln? their earlier Importance, bull traders re sumed active operations, With tho course of the day there was a revival of ln.e ist In some usually dormant stocks, which gave rise To reports of pool manipulation, es pecially In the United Stntes Leather Is sues. Current rumors regarding the divi dend status of St. Paul made that stock the feature of the day and Us fluctuations gov erned the movement of other stocks oloselv Generally speaking, the propert.e( whlih wcro notably strong yesterday le unieil tneir niivancc todny, mu ine averuge rise wns not so pronounced. The great bulk of the day's tleil'nus were transacted during the forenoon, when the hltrli nrleej of the day were made.

Traders met the rlo with stocks purchased nt lower prices early In the day nnd the bears were disposal tn sell the market on nccount of Its nr tty general stcinl" Improvement since Manila 'a opening. These offerings reduced und in some Instances wiped out ultostethcr tho lnlt.nl advances. Sugar, which had stnrlo I off 114 higher, was depresed sharply, nn 1 tho Steel stocks were rather heavy. Prices soon worked upward again, however, the trunk lines, grangers, Pacltlcs and coalers being taken freely nnd (stabllshlng ad vances of from 1 to 2 points. St. Pnul ran UP2S to 164'4 and the preferred gained Mi points. After mldrlnv the market worked slowly downward, but there were occasional rniucs, wuicn were in n measure uue io tho timidity of the short Interest on indica tions of Inside sunnort to sneel.il stocks. The demand for stocks died out pretty woll In the late afternoon and the bears made1 n successful raid against the mntket, da pressing St. Paul 2 points from the highest nnd putting the nctlve list genernlly down n point or over. The Pulled States Sttel stocks, which hnd made gains nt the outset of only each fell Into neglect during the course of the day nnd were heavy.

Wiiiunn Iln Xo Itlulit to Explore lis Depth... The other day, says the New York Sun, a magistrate of this town gave the opinion, perhaps It Is more nccurato (o say the dic tum, that a woman hns no right to "go through" her husband's pocket. We don't know that there is any light on tho subject In the Yea 1 llooks. Most of women's rights have grown up since then, and whero did the tyrant man wear his pockets In earlier days? Is there anything In Krolssnrt or nnybody else to show where Kdwnrd tho Rlnck Prince In nil his nrnior kept his change nnd how he Got at It 7 Where did Godfrey of Iloulllon hide his latchkey? It Is Idle tn tell us of pouch nnd girdle. Robin Hood knew where to find tho treasury of tho gentlemen whom he Invited to con tribute to the support of n poor man whoso leech had forbidden him to eat anything but venison, but did the sheriff of Nottingham have anything that could properly be called n trousers pocket? Did IUticblrd or Henry VIII In all his glory nnd his plethora nf matrimonial ventures ever hnve In hose or doublet a pocket which could really be de scribed ns n change pocket. "Ho. good my nlmoncr, lllng nie n rose noble to yon merry minstrel." Oh, we have read historical novels and know their lovely language, but we defy unybody to prove that any lnw of tho enroment of wives in the pockots of their husbands can bo traced until tho origin end history of the pocket have been more fully cxplnlncd. Yet unless human nnturo was very back ward tho women must have exercised from Immemorial times the privilege, slncn grown Into a right, of Inspecting tho hoards or caches of their husbands. They may not have looked for love letters, writing schools being then uncommon and tho club or ndzo taking tho place of the complete letter writer, but wo may bo sure that they ab stracted acorns, thus laying unconsciously but solidly tho foundation for tho beneficent prlnclplo of nn nllownnce. Thero were pockets In the earth or the tree or lake; it Is no parodox to say that pockets came be fore clothes. And when the noble savage made him a colt of the skin of a gnat woman wns there to sharo his tolls, nlso his receipts. Wi hnvo no oubt that I'ocn hontns, that Virginia nonpareil, went through Mnster Rolfo's pockots ns artis tically as If she had been bred within tho sound of How Dells. Ily prescription and age-long custom a married womnn has obtained the right to search lr her husband's pockots, Eco nomically tho custom Is or hns been Justi fiable. Woman hns had to take her own wherover she could And It. Morally tho custom Is salutary. It shows n man tho necessity of wary walking. It holds a fellow to a standnrd, warns him to bo enrcful In his correspondence, corrects his avnrlcc or hlB prodlgnllty. A woman begins, If wo may hazard a theory, by searching her boy's pockets, sure to con tnln many surprlslhg nnd somo noxious objects. Sho has to becomo n censor and Inspector of niatcullne treasures. Then In tho present day, when most men who nro not sailors nr soldiers havo lost tho art of sewing, she Is the pocketmakcr, ho pocket pntchor. Sho makes tho pockets. Sho keeps them In order. Sho has 11 clear tltlo to toll, rent or whatever you want to call It; tho woman's penny. Without her tho supercilious hcait wouldn't havo any pockets. She Is Justified In charging him a fee, n slight Interest on tho endowment of all his worldly goods. Sho hns tho right to garnish his pockets. nesldes, they are her pockots. Without enlarging upon tho necessity of n common household fund nnd of a special privy purse for tho wife. It is enough to say that since for mysterious reason, into which heaven forfend that wo should enter, sha has no pockots of her own, his must bo hers. Sho hns tho right to use them, to collect her Just dues from them. If ho doesn't like It. lot him stuff his Ill-gotten gains Into saddlebags and carry them se curely locked around with him or Jlnglo his loose change Into n safe deposit vault every day. Rut see what comes to tho niggard. Every day you read of somo churl who tucks nway money In n mnt tress or an old stovo or a cracked coffeo pot. Fate finds him out and punishes htm, Fire or tho Junkman or tho ragman gets tho dollars ho grudged his wife. The right of visitation of n husband's pockets Is Impnrtnnt to social Justice aud domestic economy. It may ho wilvcd, but It Is only suspended, not lost. Catholic Foresters Elect Officers.
