The violent declines had a sympathetic ef fect en the general list, especially on the granger and Grand Trunk lines, and declines 4n the railroads were extended to a point or over In many cases. Fears that the cutting of rates on grain inclined to demoralization of freight rates had an Influence. Apprehessiora of higher money ala had to do with the decline. There was a slight rally on covering of shorts by the bears and In sympathy with a rise in Reading first preferred to 6. This made the closing firm, but at net losses in practically all cases. Preliminary estimates of the movement of cur rency by express te and from the Interior indi cate an Increase in the shipments by the banks, but a Mill greater increase in their receipts, so the toss on the interior movement is believed to be tore then $500,000. Receipts of money by registered mall are said by banking authoritlea to be suSlcient to more than offset this. Losses by the banks on the subtreasury opera tions for the week foot up $3,081,000. For some reason the opinion prevails that the loan ex pansion will show a considerable falling off from the recent rate of Increase. More or less mys tery still attaches to the phenomenal Increase In loans of last week and the week before, and the disposition grows to attribute them to some special operations.. But a further decline In surplus reserves of several million dollars will inevitably be shown by tomorrow's bank state ment. The bond market showed decreased activity, and prices declined.

Other bearish news were merely subsidiary to It. The shipments from Argentina, 2,320,000 bushels, t ere exceed ed only twice last year, and have not been ex readod often In the history of the commerce of that country. In consequence. May wheat at the opening was e under Wednesday, at 67 8Tc The price touched 07G7c and later 87c, between which quotations It fluctuated for two hours. Then the descent began. Under pressure of foreign selling and bull liquidation, with feoarerly any outside demand, the price of May was forced steadily down to 06c, at which tfc- market for that option closed, lamentably weak, and lHl$gc under Wednesday. Com was Inclined towards firmness, but finally succumbed to the wheat weakness. Trade gen ftralty was quiet. Count ry offorlngs were fair, but the shinning demand was poor. May closed e down, at S4A4Xc The trade In oats was small, and influenced moat of the time by corn. In view of the weak. nee about R. the market was remarkably steady. May dosed a shade deprersod, at 28 c Previsions were dull. The market early was easy with wheat, later firm with the corn bulge, but again weak with wheat. A firm hog market had a steadying effect.

"Her Husband's Title." NORTH YAKIMA, Feb. IS. (To the Edi tor.) Being a physician, I should like to add my opinion to the query and answer under above heading in The Oregonjan of the 15th. A title in all cases should be of worth and Intrinsic value to the per son possessing It, and should be protected sad defended against usurpation. The title of "Dr." should apply only to the man or woman who has honestly earned it by long and persistent labor. I do not believe In reflected honors, and I know of nothing that has so retarded the ad vancemant of women physicians as the prevailing custom of calling the wife of a physician "Mrs. Dr." Many ladies have said to me: "Mrs. Adair, have you met Mrs. Dr. So and So?" (referring to the wife of sorae physician).

Like your correspondent, Georgie Curtis, I find it "hard to understand why this poem has created such widespread ani mosity," but I also wonder why this ani mosity has all been directed at the poet, and has spared the painter whose work Inspired the poem. The fact that the pic ture, "The Man With the Hoe." stand3 behind the poem, seems wholly lost sight of. Millet painted with his own countrymen as models, and, no doubt, "painted the thing as he saw it" His "Angelus" de picts one type of the French peasant or laborer, the self-respecting type, capable LSAHHOOD bleVItailier.taopre-Wlpttoacf nCrVOUS Or OlKnjP.Oinf tllA PPnonttltm JBcgf s32 mM Pains In t bo Rack,.

In the "Man With the Hoe" la shown another type, no doubt as real as the first. Can any ono look at that picture without feeling that the poem de scribes none too etrongly that face, with its limitations and Its possibilities? No doubt the French Revolution brought out just that type, and saw it roused to the only emotion of which It was capable a blind and unreasoning fury. Just such are the ones, stolidly accepting circumstances, incapable of rising by their own volition, but fit tools for demagogues to wield for a time as the instruments of their hate and lust for power, the final victims. Another point. Does either picture or poem reflect on the self-respecting, intel ligent laborers of our land? If any man sees his portrait In the picture, then docs the description in the poem fit him, then is he aggrieved; but i there are any such they are not likely to read the poem. One other point. Where In this poen. Is expressed any, s.cgrn or contempt for labor or the laborer? Even in that much quoted phrase,- "A brother to the ox," I see only, a profound and sorrowful pity. The -scorn, the reproach Is directed at those who havo "shaped him to the thing he ifl," not alone a laborer, but one with out the power or wish to rise in any way, and It Is to them the warning is also given.
