WASHINGTON, Dec. 2l.-Thc senate spent
almost an hour in executive session wait.
ing upon the message from the president,
the reading Of which was tho last pro-
ceeding before adjournment. The mes
sage was plea for financial action on the
lines suggested in the annual message.
The Venezuela commission bill was
passed unanimously as it came from the
house. The house adjournment holiday
resolution was also amended and passed SO
as to provide for adjourning from today
until Monday, Jan. 6. This proceeding
was accompanied by an explanation from
the Democratic sido Of the chamber that
it would be impossible for them to COM
plete their committee assignments even if
the senate should remain in session until
Tuesday next. Tho resolution instruct
ing the finance committee to consider free
silver coinage was adopted.
The session Of the house was purely a
perfunctory affair, and after waiting an
hour and a half for the senate to act on
the adjournment resolution adjournment
was taken to today.

SITUATION on WALL STREET.


Day Of Excitement That Looked LIKE q
Paste for . Time.
NEW YORK. Dec. 2l-Yesterday was q
day of excitement ON Wall street, and
matters for time bore the resemblance
Of pGnic. But the condition OF affairs
had not been unexpected and IN q meas.
ure the dealers had prepared themselves.
Before the opening Of business on the
stock exchange it was announced that g..
400,OO in gold would be sent out Of the
country, and later in the day the export
Of 100000 was announced. This togethcr
with the cable advices from London an
nouncing extensive sale of American So.
curities and tho tenor OF the war news
from all quarters was responsible for the
general feeling OF uneasiness that pre-.
vailed even early in the day.
The spirit OF the market was to sell, and
In the big exchanges this was done to an
extent rarely before surpassed. In the
Stock Exchange tho sales for the day were
775, s61 shares. As q result of the decline
in stocks the failure Of the following firms
was announced on the Stock Exchange
during the day: Nichols, rockingham &:
Co, Samuel 8. Sands & Co, De Neufville
e. Co., L. A. Feldman, and b. Fenton.
With the fall In prices the banks called in
all their loans, thus adding to the com.
plications Of the situation. In many in.
stances renewals could be made under no
conditions whatever.
just before closing the Stock Exchange
the galleries were crowded with specta.
tors; the floor Of the exchange was never
a scene Of greater excitement, and sellers
were almost fighting with each other to
getat the buyers, who were largely in the
minority. In regard to the situation.
Frederick ID. Tappen, president of the
Gallatin National bank, said that at the
present time the New York banks are all
right and are ready to face any emergency
that may arise. Tappen pointed out,
however, that the situation is still a
serious one, though likely to be allayed
soon.
Addison Cammack, the veteran opera.
tor, said of the situation: 1.-The stock
market seems to indicate n bad state of
affairs AID tho situation is the warrant
for every man taking care of his hold.
ings."
Isaac Seligman, Of the banking firm of
j. & w. Seligman, said he did not be.
lieve that any concerted action was being
taken by foreign capitalists to withdraw
credits.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2l.-There was an excit
ing time on the board of trade yesterday,
and prices were hammered furiously, the
result Of the foreign situation. There were
also sharp declines at Boston, Minneapo.
lis, and other trade centers. At New York
the cotton market went to the verge of
panic. Interviews with prominent bust
ness men here give the general opinion
that the trouble will be short.lived.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1895-12-21
Chicago Was Extra Wet.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2l.-It is said that never
before in the history Of Chicago has there
been such continuous downpour of rain
as during the past few days. Even the
spring freshets have been outdone. Over
5.22 inches OF water, in four days is the
record reported by Professor Cox of the
Auditorium weather station. The Illi-
nois and Michigan canal has broken its
banks, and to prevent further catastrophe
the sluices have been opened into the
Chicago river. As q result that sewer
has been turned into rapid river, whose
current is sweeping the rich sediment of
filth far out into the lake to the certain
contamination of the water supply.

NASHVILLE, Dec. 21.-A special to The
American from Chattanooga, Tenn, says:
Twenty-four miners lost their lives yes
terday in the Nelson mine, entry No. TO-
near Dayton, Tenn, by on explosion Of
dre-damp. The explosion was succeeded
BY . terrific crash which indicated that
the roof had fallen in. No avenue of es-
car, was left and there Is no possibility
that any Of the men will be found alive.
The mine is the property of the Dayton
Coal and Iron company, three miles from
the town Of Dayton, and reached by .
spur track. The men, both white and col
ored, including several boys, entered tho
mine at o'clock in the morning, but
nothing Of tho awful catastrophe was
known until II o'clock, when the drivers
at entry No. 10 found their way blocked
by a solid wall Of coal and slate.
Foul Air Embarrasscs the Work men.
Rcscuing parties worked all day like
grim death trying to reach them, but it is
probable that they will be several days

fallen roofing, which must be made safo
As they proceed. The foul air quickly cx-
hausts the workers, who are relieved by
fresh hands. The work will continue day
and night till the bodies are recovered. At
the drift mouth hundreds of women and
children soon gathered and the picture Of
their grief and despair is heartrending.
No Hope for tho Imprisoned.
Mothers wringing their hands, weeping
daughters and little children, sweethearts
and grayhead grandparents, all in the
greatest distress, for they have been told
that there Is no hope, is a spectacle from
which one turns sick ut heart. As the
mine is ventilated by air shafts or pass
ages, 30 the caving.in of the wall in the
entry cut OF the draft and death is certain
to those who breathed the poisoned air.
Description Of tho Fatal Mine.
The Nelson mine has been worked for
twelve years or more, and the entry where
the unfortunate miners are entombed ran
back more than two miles from the mouth
Of the mine. The mine is the kind COM
