CHICAGO, Dec 2l.-Considerabl anx-

over the effect the heavy rains and ac-
companying floods are having on the
city water supply The Chicago river
is on rampage and is hourly emptying
huge volumes of it's filth laden waters
into Lake Michigan. The long contin-
ued rains have swollen the waters of
the drainage canal and Desplaines river
to such All extent that it hes been nec-
essary to open the flood gates OF the
former, letting the water into the Chi
cago river. This at once set the cur.
rent flowing toward the lake, and
should the spill of the Desplalnes
also overflow, adding its volume to the
flood tide of the Chicago river, the city's
water would be rendered unfit for use

THE STOCK MARKET EXCITED
Quite a FURRY Wall street-Big
Drop and q Rally.

New YORK, Dec 2l.-The stock mar
ket was wildly excited. The breakaway
came to most people in the street as
total surprise, nothing being in sight
over night to portend any extraordinary
developments. Before the opening,
however, matters began to assume a
questionable shape in the Judgment OF
Wall street veterans, The first quota
tions received for American securities
from London created a sensation, and
prepared the bankers and brokers for a
stormy day. The prices recorded showed
declines extending to per cent, and
the London market was reported de-
'c:dedly ragged"
Each successive cable indicated still
lower figures, and it was finally re-
ported that many "jobbers'' on the
London Stock Exchange had refused to
accept orders. The unfavorable news
was coincident with preparations by
the gold shippers for Saturdays exports
to Europe. The initial trading was
highly sensational, and declines were
made all along the line. extending to
AZ per cent. The market rallied con.
siderably before the close.

ASK FOR ACTION
The Heavy Gold Withdrawals
and the Bi ig Slump in
Stocks
May Cause the President to Ask
Congress to Grant
Authority
To Issue Bonds and to Do 1t at
Once-.SubStitue Venezuelan
Resolution.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-The news
that there had been big slump in
stocks on both the New York and Lon
don exchanges and that the gold with
drawals for export would approximate
81 1000, 900 and possibly more, created
something of a sensation among treas
ury officials. At about noon, Assistant
Secretary Curtis had conversation
with New York parties over the long
distance telephone. and at its con-
clusion, .hurriedly left the department
for the White House, where the cabi-
net was in session. He was shown into
the presidents room where he was
joined Immediately by Secretary Car
Isle The substance of Mr.. Curtis in
formation was laid before the president
and the cabinet. What measures, If
any, will be taken at once by the gov
ernment to allay the panicky situation is
problematical, but there now seems to
be no reasonable doubt that in case OF
the continued large Withdrawals OF
gold, even for another week, the presl.
dent will send a message to congress
urging the gravity of the situation
as a reason for
Immediate and Favorable Action
ON the recommendation made that the
secretary of the treasury be authorized
to issue low rate bonds to preserve the
integrity of the gold reserve, in thu
absence Of prompt legislation in thi'
direction, it is not doubted that another
bond issue under the same authority a
the preceding one will be announced
The present situation is not regarded a
materially different from those which
have preceded other issues, nor are tn
conditions regarded as any more favor
able for a speedy termination OF tn
outflow of gold. Already the reserv
has reached point in its downwar'
course, considerably below SO, 900, ,OOO
