Now York, June 12—The constant
changes in the course of prices today
seemed to represent nothing more ihm
the shifting sentiment of the room
tradars, who had the day's transactions
to themselves. There were some indiv-
idual points of strength and scffne of
wtakmss, and these varying sympathetic
cfTect on the list as a whole. The jjen-
er^l drift, however, was very narrow and
operations outside a half dozen stocks
were- very scanty. There were lengthy
periods, In fact, when the market was
practically stagnant. Less was he Hird of
yesterday's Japanese war sirtre, owing
to tlie declination of competent author-
ities to give It credit. The passing of
ths incident would open the way natur-
ally to some recovery from the depres-
sion yesterday, which was caused by wha
fear of It.
Rock Island preferred was said to be
affected by this cause. With the subsid-
ence of the Japanese war scare the bears
werre inclined to fall back on lnfrentlal
deductions from th difficulties of a
great firm of building contractors an-
nounced yrjterday. a minor failure an-
nounced this morning affecting building
operations gave point to the expacted
inxiety over n possible condition of over
extension which might bring similar
mliarrassments from difficulty of obtain
Ing working capital In other fields. Spec-
ific rumors of such conditions extended
nto the dry goods field and set on root
exhaustive inquiries on the subject,
which served to discredit the runnrs
entirely.
QUINCY, MASS.,—Charles Sandeen of
this city yesterday died making tho
third life lost as the result of an ex-
plosion at the works of yie Fore River
Shipbuilding plant yesterday. The explo-
sion was caused by the Ulowing out of
a balance plug on a steel shaft which
was on one of the forge fires. The explo-
.st>n killed Instantly Charles Haag and a

ILL THE WORK
A Queer Colony of Secialists in
New Mexico
MEN PRIVILEGED BEINGS
turn home to prepare a place for men
and wo won of the faith who find this
awful rule of plutocracy too oppres-
y ve for them- Our colony is happy
and contented, and if the money pow-
er will only lot us alone for a few year
more we will produce a race of man
and women of powerful strength to
remove the ponderous machinery that
now c as with labor.
"TI. any owns twenty acres of
land unuer irregatlon, which produce,
enough praln and vegetables for U3e
"f the community. Enough sheep and
gents are owned to supply our needs
in the way of milk and butter and
clothing. The use of goats milk pre-
vents sickness, and cheese made from
the milk of goats surpasses anything
ever used.
"There are no domestic animals
owned by the colony. Our women do
all of the work, but you must remem-
ber that It requires only five hours a
day to sustain the life of tho colony.
Socialism, as we knew it, is merely
tho moans that will ultimately redeem
the race of men and women who toll
under present socal and economic con-
ditions in America. They may call is
what the/ please if they will but lot
us a!one. Our aim in life Is high and
noble; yes, God-gl but the pluto-
crats are trying to push us into
dark and c'reary corner, that hey may
profit through our labor aryl the blood
of our children.
I "There were 49 children born to us
I the first year of tho settlement, all of
them showing robustness and power-
| ful strength. Eight of our boys, now
enly 9 years of age, have developed
muscles that would put Sandow ;«.nd
Muldoon to shame. By careful mat-
ing and scientific selection we hope to
produce a race of men and women of
great strength, who will, ere long, re-
place the ponderous machinery now in
use that competes with labor. This
machinery, you know is the property
and invention of the money-bags, and
my colony will produce ryiants who
will raze every factory to the grou/id.
"I belierve men. like animals, are ca-
Pable of the highest breeding, and by
scientific selection I expect to show
the plutocrats a few thing® that ,vlll
open their eyes. I am not posing as
ar\ egotist or bravado, but my happy
band of faithful scientists will yet
startle tho so-called civilized world by
their prowess and great strength."
When asked If he had decided to lo-
cate the colony in the Osage Hills, the
doctor replied:" I am not certain about
it yet, but will soon know- Tho coun-
try is sufficiently rough and sparcely
settled, but the mon,ey power would
hardly premit us to remain over there
with a large colony. I will keep an
eye on this country.

the doctor proved more reticent, but
admitted that about ten years ago he
selected 5u strong, vigorous men and
an equal number of women, most'y
Germans, and took up their abode in
the Jarillo Mountains. He said that
his colony was started, primarily to
rthop tho Interests of socialism, but
tho "Plutocrats and Gold Bugs" ha 1
