THE BUSINESS WORLD.
Failure of the Pennsylvania Steel Conn
pany VIII Involve Others.

pany VIII Involve Others.
PHILADELPHIA, April 22.-The failure
of the Pennsylvania Steel company has
depressed the iron and steel trade, and it
is the belief in financial circles that the
embarrassment of this large concern is
but forerunner OF lesser failures in the
same line. The stock of the Pennsylvania
Steel company, which yesterday was Of
fered at 100 with no bids was today offered
at so. None, however, was sold. At the
offices of the company in this city today,
nothing could be learned beyond the fact
that statement of assets and liabilities,
ETC.. was being prepared and would be
ready for distribution early next week.
Who the heaviest creditors are, is as yet
unknown, but it is said New York firm
is heavily involved. Philadelphia banks
hold large quantities of s'iron paper''
and the failure has affected many of them.
The paper of the Pennsylvania Steel
company has always been regarded as
gilt edge and the sudden failure OF the
concern has produced a slump from
which there has not and will not for
some days be recovery. The report
that the Pennsylvania railroad is in
volved in the embarrassm emit is not given
credence.

New YORK, April 22.-Latest informa-
ton obtainable regarding Mr.. Booth 8
condition is that he is dying, and that
death is only question of few hours.
It appears that DR.. Smith, his physician,
is endeavoring to conceal his real condi
ton. He called at O'Clock, and coming
to the door of the house stated that he
considered the patient improved. On top
of this, half an hour later, came the
statement from Mr.. Booths brother
in-law, Mr.. McGonigal, that Mr..
Booth was unconscious half the time
and there are only intervals of being sem
sible of what is passing about him.
DR.. Smith called at the club at IL 80
tonight and found Mr.. Booth sleeping.
He said the fact that the patient had
rested so well was encouraging. There
was no change in his conditian at 1:45
this Sunday morning.

WAS He MURDERED?
A Former Salt Lake Man Found Dead
in Chicago.
His Name Is Charles L. O'Connor and the
Condition of the Remains Indi-
Gated Foul Play.

CHICAGO, April 22.-iSpeciaI AT .
O'Clock this afternoon the body of a man
supposed to be Charles L.. O'Connor, of
Salt Lake city, was found in the woods
alongside of the Chicago & Erie tracks,
near the little town of Thornton, ILL.,, and
close to the southern limits of this city.
The body was badly mangIed and had
evidently been run over by a railroad
train. There were some circumstances
about the affair, however, which excited
the suspicious of the authorities and they
caused the body to be removed to the Six
tenth precinct police station, and from
there transferred it to the Fifteenth pre-
cinct police station.
When found there " ere certain sus-
picious bruises and marks about the head
and face and the pockets were turned
wrongside out. Near the body was found
a letter addressed to the dead man at
Hammond, Ind. 1t was from his brother
John j. O'Connor, who lives at 317 Main
street, Salt Lake. The young man was
well dressed and appeared to have been
about 81 years old.
The coroner was notified but concluded
not to hold any inquest until Monday.
Detectives were sent to Hammond to-
night and others were sent to the scene
of the supposed crime. The brother in
Salt Lake has been notified.

of age, left this city short time ago and
had secured employment as trainman on
one of the roads running into Chicago.
He wrote to his brother John q short time
ago, telling him that he could also get a
position there.
The deceased was raised in this city and
his mother still resides here, but his
father lives at Butte, Mont. The informa-
ton received by his brother last night
was simply to the effect that Charles had
been killed on the railroad, the telegram
conveying no intimation of foul play. He
has ordered the remains shipped to this

All impartial historians give to the
Norsemen the honor of being the discover
ers OF America. However, but few Of them
ever give tile name Of the real discoverer.
According to the most authentic records,
monks from Ireland discovered Iceland
about the year TBS A. ID. About 1876 years
later the Norsemen (knowing nothing of
the discovery made by the Irish monks
also ran afpul of the little boreal island.
In the year S74 these enterprising sons OF
the vikings had planted colony on the
islaud which soon became a fourishing
settlement. In the year 1903 Eric the Red
discovered the east coast of Greenland and
skirted along it for many miles In 995
one Blarni, who was making trip in his
vessel from Norway to Iceland, was driven
from his course and finally found himself,

what is now Nova Scotia.
These facts, being indisputable, should
accord to Bjarni the individual honor OF
being the discoverer of the western CONT.
nent. But the Scandinavian historians,
when pressing their claims of being the
true discoVerers of America, seldom men
ton Bjarni, seeming to prefer comforting
the honor upon one Left n son of Eric the
