prompted him to refuse ev, ~ manner

And every offer Of a fee for profess

The Hale and Norcross Case

Pine Street is a%nxiously waiting for

The Report says:
A number Of prominent stockbrc-
kers were consulted as to the effect Of
the Hale & Norcross suit and the de
lay Of the Supreme Court on mining
stocks generally, and they offered a
consensus OF opinion eonilrmatory of
the views expressed by Mr.. Fox.
They agreed that capital had been de-
terrcd from speculation in mining
stocks. Much depends on the DIES
cision of the Supreme Court. Hun

Caved In.

The sidewalk on Crown street along
side the Hoadley building caved in
yesterday morning Workmen were
digging a ditch for the Water company S
new main through Crown street from
State to Church.
In order to finish the job up yester-
day Superintendent Dillon of the Water
company had the men put to work at
4 o'clock in the morning. About 6
o'clock the ditch was completed to
Church street
In throwing up the dirt out of the
ditchFft had been deposited beside the
sidewalk by the Hoadley building. IN
dernsath the sidewalk was a sub-cellar
in which the coal for the Hoadley
building was stored and where also
the boiler which furnishes steam for
the building is located.
The throwing of the dirt onto the
surface, on what was supposed to be
solid ground was too heavy for the
roof of the sub-cellar and 1t fell in.
The damage to the boiler and cellar
is considerable. The Water company
however, will repair whatever damage
was done without cost to Mrs. Hoad-
ley, the owner of the building. Super
intendent Dillon and the water boy
were on the sidewalk, but fortunately
were not hurt.
