THE WASHINGTON TDIES, THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 1912. 15 Boston Raids List, But Market Comes Back Strongly COALERS LEAD IN A SHARP ADVANCE TURNING A WEAK OPENING INTO STRENGTH. NEW YORK, Juno 30. The stock mar ket remains in a more or less moribund condition The very dullness led the Boston speculative crowd led by Tom LawBon to break loose this morning:, and make play for a turn on the short Bide of the list. For a time they were successful, and then they lost out at least, they were not able to take advantage or tneir paper profits, as the recovery that fol lowed a Bharp display of strength in the coalers was so quickly made that there was no time to take even the one half point gains made on tho caily slump. It took nearly the greater part of the morning for the rally, the best part of It coming In the last hair of the second hour. At that time speculation had let up, and there was no activity anywhere save in the coalers. The bulls wore aided by tho show of strength In London, and a general belief that the short Interest 1b extended and will take advantage of any bear successes to cover. The bear raid did not bring out much long stock, close students of the Street failing to find anything that would In dicate liquidation. At no time did tho market approach activity: It was slow always, but few stocks actually show ing even a fair volume of trading. Today s New York Stock Exchange Prices quotation! furnished by W. B.

HOUSE DECLINES TO E E Fear Amendment of Senator Would Make Bill Un constitutional. The House today refused to agree to the Senate amendments to the leglsla tle, executive, and Judicial appropria tion bill, which carries piovlslons for not only striking down the Commerce Court, but also for abolishing the five additional cli cult Judgeships. Congress men Johnson, Burleson, and Glllett were named as the House conferees. Congressman Mann made a brief speech attacking the constitutional of the Smith amendment which abol ishes the live places. In reply Congressman Fitzgerald said the amendment offered by Senator Hoke Smith was unconstitutional, but he said that he thought a conference committee should be given opportunity to thresh over the question. If the House conferees come to the conclusion that there is the slightest tinge of Invalidity in the Smith amend ment the House will not, in the opinion of Congressman Fitzgerald, accept thli amendment. ThH refusal will be based on the desire of the majority to give President Taft no constitutional grounds on which to base the expected veto.

JOHN JOT EDSON. President. ck: Heart to Heart Talks BY THE EDITOR OF THE CAVALIER WHEN this week's number of Tho Cavalier reaches tho public, the Republican Party of the United States will have selected Us nominee, In consequence of which a large number of Ameri cans, who, prior to the Convention, woro but temporarily insane, will be come raving lunatics and remain so until the election in November. Every Issue, from high tariff to low water In tho Mississippi River, will be fought out from San Francisco to the remotest outpost among the Maine lobstermen; and from the lip of the Great Lakes down to tho Florida Keys, where you light your cigar In Havana and burn your mustache In the United States. In certain parts of the Union, where chivalry 1b not yet dead, the .ladles will take a hand In Who's Who in Washington, D. C and co- v electioneering will be abroad in the land. Tho whole fabric ot our political mechanism will be reconstructed, party lines will change, and doubln-veBted statesmen, with tbetr hands on their chests and Web star's Unabridged Dictionary tumbling out of their mouths, will sud denly curl up, take the count, and return to private life at the request of tho majority of their neighbors. I am not a prophet, but I will venture the guess that the nominee' name will end with T. Simultaneously THE CAVALIER for June 22 has been flung athwart the land, so that the safe aid sano and calmly intelligent American people may be relieved of the distractions of the hour and the cares that infest the day. The star story in this week's lBsue appears under the title of "THE IDEALISTS" BY CARL S. HANSEN To be explicit, "THE IDEALISTS" were pirates, gentlemanly plratea, pirates who wore straw hats and flannel suitings and v. ere pirates merely for the purpose of bracing up civilization, doing their best to Improve conlltlons. Like most pirates, they believed In direct action and the ' force of arms. They decided to make their first experiment on a trans Atlantic liner, mastered by a coup d'etat. It must not be supposed that theBo Ideal pirates believed In the black flag, the Spanish doubloon, the cutlass, the red bandanna handker chiefs wrapped around their foreheads, and the sack of Panama. No, sir, not those gentlemen. They were pirates for progress, pirates who wished to Improva; pirates with a mission: none of your cheap blood-letting, ship-scuttling, plank-walklng scoundrels. Pciceful pirates. Pure pirates. Pleisant pirates. Preferential Primary pirates, with no desire to act on the offensive unless forced to lt. There goes politics again. Of course. In order to make the storv dramatic and give every reader of THE CAVALIER his money's worth, somebody tried to trip up the boss pirate, whereupon he struck back. And then the most pic turesque and exquisite piece of piracy ever dragged from the Imagina tion of an author unllmbered Its guns. Straightway the ship's doctor threw his hat In tho ring, a mob f stokers came up from the coal bins, a very attractive young woman rollod her spring bonnet Into tho melee, and some plutocrats, with nothing else to do, decided to make lt a battle rojal, and lt was a battle royal, with each faction forcing to the front at proper Intervals. It Is marvelous what piracy will achieve If properly conducted, and I assure vou Mr. Hansen's little handful of volunteers were not asleep at the switch, "THE IDEALibTS" Is a complete novel, wonderfully dramatic, splendidly written, full of human Impulses, and al!e with the thrill of suspended in terest. US ' : J Let us step now Into the realm of real life. Into the thick of our American systems, which none of us can escape, no matter how hard we try. it comes to you In the form of t s'rlal: "TOO BIG FOR THE MILLIONS" BY GEORGE M. A. CAIN A young lawyer, who has acquired eminence through having 'thrown a brick at and killed a trust, finds himself in a position to command whatever he wants pollUcally. The powers want him to run for district attorney, but he yearns for a Supreme Court Judgeship. The election goeB against him. Stung by what he calls ingratitude, he turns upon his friends, the dear peo ple, and cUsslllts them as "an ungrateful bunch of cattle " He becomes the corporation attorney for another trust and sets out to make ten millions and marry the daughter of a money baron No more poverty for his. He Is out for the monej. and it seems as though he would succeed But clouds begin to bank up against his future. The storm that always overtakes a moral mugwump hurls the lightning of disapproval Into his very soul. He is tossed about In the maelstrom of eents, finall.v awakens to the call of his big obligations, returns to the people who reversed him in the be ginning, and makes good. Yes, madam, there Is a loe story running through this serial, a very beautiful and very exquisite love story. & t' A BIG BATCH OF SHORT STORIES HERE Is a nice short, beautifully executed story entitled "SHE WHO HATH NOT," by Frances E. Gale. These stories are ery popular this season. Everybody Is reading them now. This particular one is about a girl who loved aiyi lost. But she was so much finer than the man who lost her that she declined to be shut out of his life. And because of this splendid, olg quality she then took back In his place something else, something more potential than even his love for her. This story Ib a study in tenderness, a full chord In the music of cosmic longing M H Jz THIS Is an entirely different kind of a story, bv Auramla Ellerbeck. called "SWEET SIXTEEN." Oh. gee. I wish I were young again. I wonder If I used to be like the charac ters In this story?

But there are no such Jodb Read "SWEET SIXTEEN." Look at jourself In the mirror of youth You cannot deny that you were sixteen once. I know a girl who was six teen for four years. MARY RIDER MECHTOLD. under the title of "THE DECOY," tells about a woman who lured men to the gaming table That is exactly what Bhe did. She went out and 1-u-r-e-d them, broke down their tine, manly qualities and coaxed them to tho cards. That Is a fine thing for a woman to do to a poor, weak man with only one vote. Take this story home and read lt to your husband. He'll like lt. He'll like part of It, any how, particularly that part where "the decoy" gets decoyed herself. THE FRANK A.
