over any given stretch of track within Its boundaries. A lower rate of speed -would, in all probability, havo saved the Brewster express from derailment, but the railroad company has explained that high speed was made In response to the insistent demands of suburban passengers, who wanted quick transit to and from the city. It should not be possible for any railroad to establish dangerous schedules merely because heedless patron:

refer transportation with risk rather

than transportation with safety. It

is to be hoped that what the grand

Jury urges will be formulated in law,

nd that hereafter the state may have

voice in the composition of all sched-

les involving fast travel."

Governor Hanly lias commuted the

entence of the Greek murderer, Contantine Stratocopulus, to imprisonment

for life. Also the sentence of John

Lapidat, the Roumanian murderer. Three times within five weeks Gov-

rnor Hanly has set aside the sentences

f convietej murderers. The gov-

rnor certainly is making a record for

the saving of the necks of the sen

tenced manslayers. We are not going

to say that ho has stretched his au

thority in these cases, but it is unfor-

unate that the impression prevails

that the governor preserves these men

rom the halter because of his aversion

to capital punishment. We are sure

that the pronounced views of the pres-

nt executive on the subject have not

essened the number of murderers In

this state within the last two years.

And, God knows, the toll of human life

taken by homicide in the state of In

diana is something frightful to con-

emplate. In one year there were eight

murders in Greene county. Many of

the murders In the state, however.

most of them in fact, have been committed by what we may fittingly describe as the alien population; negroes

engaged in construction work along railroad lines, and Greeks, Roumanians and Italians, who come to this country with their peculiar notions about the privilege of every man to wreak ven

geance without regard to the law.

IMPROVEMENT IN TRACTION.

The owners of the traction property In Chicago and its suburbs now know how to proceed. The question has been taken out of politics. The people have accepted the promise that the terrible state of affairs that has existed in transportation for Beveral years will be relieved at onco. The Utopian scheme of municipal ownership has been repudiated. If Mr. Dunne had the executive capacity and the vertebrae to carry out the tenets ft the platform upon trhlch he was elected, Chicago might have been a better city for eome people to live in. But Mr. Durne's mind was not his own for a

pMgle mlnut during his term of of-

lice. He had the misfortune to sur

round himself with persons who had

vagaries of their own and insisted upon steering him away from the main Idea. At the dictation of Mr. Hearst, and Mr. Hearst's brilliant band of assistants, he adopted all the misfit policies of New York and San Francisco, and he stood for the abuse that Mr.

Hearst choso to heap upon those whom

Mr. Dunne has known and has had

reason to respect throughout his poli

tical life.

If left to depend upon his own record and resources, Mr. Dunne would have made a better and cleaner fight,

but there ho was tied hand and foot

to a lurid band wagon of foreign con

structlon. committed to doctrines not

' of his own teaching and to beliefs in which he did not believe. He permit

ted himself to be arrayed against friends whose hands were as clean as

his own and whose wisdom as to

Chicago's needs is better than the Im

ported brand.

v Mf. Dunne is a good man in defeat.

There is not a spot on his character

As a judge he had the respect of the

community, but as a mayor he has

shown that his goodness is purely

negative.

Hammond and the balance of the

Calumet region is interested in the

solution of the traction question. The

Lake county system is naturally and really a part of the Chicago system and as one is Improved so shall be the other, for shame sake even for noth

ing else.

IT IS seldom that the genial old Tri

bune breaks out of its shell of neutrality in political affairs, but when It does!

O, dear!

TH13 verdict of Chicago is that Mr. Dunne is a nice man but that he

trains with the wrong sot.

JUST tho same Thr Lake County Times will send twelve of the most popular young ladies of the district

to the Jamestown exposition.

REMEMBER, also that we are still

working for a greater city in the

Calumet region.

THE hooting owl whose ancient, solitarv reign was molested still refuses

to get next to himself.

THAT Busse tip was all right. Wha do you know in the next contest?

AT TOWLE'S OPERA HOUSE.

In speaking of her marvelous ca

gin an engagement with "Carter," the

great magician, at the lowie opera

house next Friday, April 5th says: "I

have cultivated the sixth sense and my

mental flights are perfectly normal to my understanding, but I cannot define

tho sense to you. I believe that if

were to put it into language I would

speak a strange jargon that would

give you the impression that I am

charlatan, but I have found men and

women who commune with me in a lan

guago perfectly intelligible, but not in

words familiar to our tongues. I meet

those who seem to annlhiliate me. It

is as though I were an astral essence

that floated just above and beyond their

thought plane. I surround myself with a wall and look over it at some of the intellectual monstrosities that touch the edge of my thought wave, but I do It with an understanding that is full of sympathy, and would help them if it were possible. They are not ready yet, but they are all struggling for the mouth of the cavern where the light will shine on them." The seat sale is now in progress.

toward the Harriman railways. Later In the session when shorts made an effort to buy back their committments, prices began to soar and the early declines were regained in almost every stock that had shown early weakness. St. Paul recovered two points from its lowest mark of the day. The continued talk of placing the

Smelters about one and the balance of

the active list proportionately.

Brooklyn Rapid Transit was the chief

feature in the traction shares. It

showed a gain of three points for the day. The continue dtalk of placing the property upon a dividend paying basis was the bull card Issued. Interborough

also had a sympathetic rally of a point and a half.

It Is argued In well Informed circles

that the traction shares are cheap at the current quotations and they have numberless friends upon every depression. The market closed feverish and Irregular with fair gains here and there throught the list.

HEARD ON THE BOURSE. The decline in time money rates is a most important and favorable development at this time, a3 permitting a wider scope to public speculative and investment operations and so long as an active and healthy condition prevails in the commerce and industries of the country it should form the basis of a good market for our securities both bonds and stocks. The renegotiation and funding of short term obligations may, from various causes, be a less serious problem than hitherto contemplated and the market should be favorably influenced by these considerations. Meantime, it Is apparent that unpleasant Incidents and unfavorable developments have lost their force as an argument against prices and most

things point to a somewhat higher

market in the near future.

The re-hearing in the Harriman case

before the Interstate commerce com

mission will commence at 10 o'clock, April 4 In the rooms of the commission

here. No evidence will be taken by the committee, but an argument will be made on the case as already made up. Chairman Knapp, who Is now In Chicago, will arrive in time to sit in

the case, which will be argued before

the full committee. D. J.

Today's market was materially influ enced by quotations sent from Lon

don, and prices In the general list

showed losses of from 1 to 2 per cent

compared with last night's close, while Canadian Pacific declined about from

6 to 8 per cent.

There was some good buying at the

lower range, which stimulated the market and prices rallied again in some securities, especially Atchison

and B. R. T. scored gains compared

with yesterday's values.

Generally speaking there is little out

side interest except a few traders who are willing to scalp the market for a

point or two.

No state is richer In American an

tiquities than Virginia, and the library board, which is custodian of the

historical relics and art works of the

state, has notified tho Jamestown ex

position that all Its treasurers are at

the disposal of the management.

This collection will form the nu

cleus of the fine art exhibit, for among

these works are many masterpieces, es

pecially by the earlier artists.

There are in this state collection

portraits of ail the governors of Vir

ginia and of her distinguished soldiers and statesmen from the earliest times down to tho present, In addition to many historical paintings and

some works of the mallet and chisel that are notable.

Relics such as the swords of Wash

ington and Lee, the saddle, pistols and

holsters of Jackson, and other objects

valuable and Interesting because of

their association with great men anA events, will be placed in the historical exhibit and will, of course, be no part of the exhibit of the fine arts. The Colonial Dames and Daughters of American Revolution, who own and control most of the historical relics, will make a marvelous display of these Interesting objects, which lncluda plates, ceramics, bric-a-brac. Jewelry, furniture, clothing, manuscripts and books. This exhibit, which wll be placed in the Historic Art palace, will be a liberal education In Itself, and It will undoubtedly be one of the greatest attractions of this greatest historical expositions. The members of the Beacon party, consisting of forty-three lady teachers and twenty-three pupils will find great educational and entertainment value In this part of the exhibit.

The general situation will have to

adjust Itself much more for the pub

lic to become more Interested, and

while there Is still a large short In

terest, we do not look for any ma

terlal recessions at the moment, but we think it is unwise to buy stocks when the market is strong and would only do so when prices are weak.

Man Is the Ruler of Woman. By Rev. C F. DREWES of St. Louis.

IIE excellence of Evo appears from tho MANNER in which she was made. The Lord did not simply speak her into being

nor did ho form her of the dust of the ground, but ho took

one of tho ribs of the sleeping man and made it into a woman. It is significant that God made her of a rib taken from man'a side, lie did not make her OUT OF HIS HEAD, as if sho were to bo his ruler. God says, "THY nUSBAND SHALL RULE OVER THEE." That is tho order established by God. 9t H Nor has this divinely established order been changed in the New Testament. God says in tho New Testament: "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto tho Lord. EOR THE HUS;BAND IS THE HEAD OF THE WIFE, even as Christ is tho head of the church ; and ho is tho savior of the body. Therefore, i.3 tho church is subject unto Christ, so let tho wives bo to their own husbands in everything." This divinely enjoined submission, however, does not involve any DEGRADATION and disgrace. By saying with Holy Writ that man is the head of the wife we do not affirm that man is superior to woman. There is hero no question of superiority and inferiority. IT IS A QUESTION OF HEADSHIP, OF DOMESTIC AUTHORITY WHICH GOD HAS INTRUSTED TO MAN.

Some hopeful dispatches from Chicago regarding the labor situation printed in the Times this morning and the absence of signs of positive ending may offset in some degree the reactionary tendency of the London market this morning, and the very full statement published as coming from the White House on the attitude of the administration.

Regarding special questions lately under discussion. In addition to this, the American prints a letter stated to have been written by Mr. Harriman to Sidney Webster in the winter of 190405 which will be more or less a market Influence at this time. The letter relates to the campaign fund of the state of New York and declares that the president appealed to the writer for aid, etc. The president's statement, widely published this morning, contains nothing new regarding his

policy except that he has no plan for

valuation of railroads, that question being left to these corporations, etc.

a trifle firmer in the early part of the

session. Continued damage reports

from the southwest which were accom

the Ohio crop reported a large shortage estimated at close to six million compared with a year ago. Houses with northwestern connections are inclined to be skeptical about the crop damage, they have been liberal sellers throughout the day. At the close tonight it seems they have the better of the argument, prices eased off a half a cent near the close, closing the market practically unchanged from yesterday.
