A CRASH ON 'cHAKGE.
Local Securities in Philadelphia Take a
Tremendous Drop Within
Few Hours.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 30.-Visi-
tors to the gallery of the Philadelphia
Stock Exchange to-day witnessed scene
of excitement such as can only be evoked
by crash in the stock market. 1t was the
elimination of extensive speculation in
local industrial securities that Philadel-
phians have recently INDUCED in, and in
less than two hours a shrinkage ranging
from rs to $40 per share in certain of these
stocks was witnessed. Yesterdays de-
velopments in the stock market when the
first sign of weakness in these securities
became apparent had sounded note of
warming, but not even the most experienced
crash as that of to-day.
At the opening the common stock of the
Electric Storage battery Company had
sold at 66N. but before noon it had fallen
to AZ AMI at the same time the preferred
stock had broken from 651S to So. The
United Gas improvement Company stock
dropped from S734 to IS and that of the
Welsbach Light Company from 81 to 87ls,
while the rights to subscribe to the
shares of the newly organized Pennsylva-
mis- Coal, Light and Power Company
dropped from 1915 to Ia. A brief and
merely temporary rally preceded second
break, which at l P. NJ. had carried Electric
Storage common down to Al, the preferred
to 49 and the Welsbach Light to So, while
the other stocks had little firmer tone.
The fall in prices was really inaugurated
on October 81, for it was then that the
electric storage battery stocks reached
their highest level

Congress Will Be Petitioned to
Furnish Complete
Battery.
EQUIPMENT OF THE OREGON
Mounting of Guns Delayed Awaiting
the Completion of the
Castings.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 30.-The re-
port of Captain w. T. Sampson, chief of
the Ordnance Bureau, was made public to-
day. He submits estimates to Congress
for the next year, the most important of
which is an item of 81, 259, 666 for modern
battery for Admiral Farragut's old flag
ship Hartford, now at Mare Island. The
whole amount is not for the Hartford s
battery, but if appropriated will be used
for tools. apparatus, tests, and for tor
pedoes, etc., a considerable part of which
will be for the HaTtford's rehabilitation.
Captain Sampson says that although
plans have been approved for the Hart
ford's new battery, consisting of thirteen
5-inch rapid-firing guns, four 6-pounders
and two landing-guns, Congress has not
as yet appropriated the money for this
purpose.
An appropriation is, however, available
for repairing her hull. He earnestly rec
ommends that Congress provide funds for
the Hartfords battery. Congressman
English succeeded in getting this provis-
ion made in the House, but it was knocked
out on the Senate side through German
influence.
CONCERNING tHe OISSOI, Oapta1i OaAi p
son says:
Part Of her main battery has been
shipped to San Francisco, and the balance
will follow as fast as transportation can be
afforded. as there are only two or three
cars in the United States capable Of carry
ing this gun. Several months will be
needed, therefore, to complete her equip
ment The Lancaster's five-inch mounts
are finally finished and installed, but the
department was considerably EN- barrassed
because the contractors did not finish the
castings in time.
If exigencies of the service permit"
says Captain Sampson, 1.-The Lancaster may
be used as gunnery training ship Qor
which purpose she was intended), and this
would result in much good"

Canadian Ports Guarded by Fleet of
Revenue Cutters.
MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Oct. 30.-In re-
gard to the reports which have been cur
rent during the last week that relief expe-
ditions and tilibustering parties had left
for Cuba from Canadian ports Government
officials to-day after very thorough ex-
animation declared that such rumors were
false, and that no such expeditions had
been fitted out.
To-day an official order was received
from the British Home Office warning the
Canadian officials to take stringent meas
ures to prevent any breach of the neu-
trality laws. AS result all the ports are
now being subjected to careful surveil-
lance; in fact, the blockade is SO strict
that it is impossible for a single vessel of
any kind to leave any of the harbors with
out its exact destination and the contents
OF its cargo being known to the customs
authorities.
For the time being nearly the entire
feet of revenue cutters and the patrol
feet, whose duty it is to look after the
poaching in Canadian waters, have been
pressed into service.

A Quarrel Over Politics in the Blue
Grass State Started the
FracaS.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Oct. 30.-It has
been known here for some time that Naval
Lieutenant Lucien Young slapped Senator
Joe Blackburn's face one night at Hotel
Page. The facts were successfully re-
pressed until to-day. They quarreled
about Kentucky politics.
Il shall slap the face OF my critics, "
said Blackburn.
Perhaps you may get your own face
slapped" retorted the young man.
II will kill the man who slaps my face"
declared the belligerent statesman, where
upon Young struck him upon the nose,
bringing the claret. Friends interceded
and prevented Blackburn from retaliating.
This was only retribution, for not many
month ago Blackburn pulled Senator
Chambers proboscis SO hard that it bled.
Lieutenant Young is well known in Cali
fornia, having once been stationed at Mare
Island.

GOOD FOR KINNEY.
A Republican State Central Com
mitteeman Talks Wisely to
Southern California Peopls

The following open letter to the people
of Southern California appeared in the
columns of the Los Angeles Express yes
terday:
The selection of the place of meeting of the
Republican National Convention is one of no
small Importance to the people of Los Angeles.
San Francisco is making splendid fight for
the coveted honor, and far as our sister city
is from the center Of population a splendid
showing IS already in evidence. Nineteen OF
the National Committeeman have already in
dicated their preference for the Western me-
tropolis.
The committee, which, by the way is not al
together local one, which is booming the
project counts on its Endorsement by the San
Francisco Chamber of Commerce and Board of
Trade and by the press organizations of the
State. II is expected that similar organizs-
tions OF Portland and other coast cities will
also lend their influe nee. If the convention of
one of the two great political parties is held
on the coast that of the other is likely TO come
West.
The National Convention would be a big
thlng Tor san Francisco, and it would also be a
big thing for Los Angeles. This great gather
Ing Will have at least 1000 delegates and 1000
alternates, and. adding to this our press repre-
sentatlves, politicians ana friends OF the can
dluates, crowd OF over 5000 in all will come
West.
OF this number we can figure that at least so
per cent viii visit Southern California Here
Is golden opportunity to advertise our grand
resources. Among this throng viii be men of
influence, intelligence aud capital, whom we
would delight in offering the hospitality OF our
southland. In all probability, if the conven-
ton occurs late in the summer, there will be
IN attendance many members of Congress- To
these we can point out our legislative needs,
our harbors and public buildings. More than
this, we can impress on them our remarkable
commercial growth, which would be quad
rupled on the completion OF the Nicaragua
canal.
The holding of the National Convention on
the coast would solidify the party, and perhaps
make it possible for Californian 10 occupy the
tail end of the ticket at all events, it would be
great move toward giving the State a repre-
sentation in the next Cabinet.
The coming to Southern California of such
representative body would be an immense adj
vertisement for this section, accomplishing
nearly as much lasting results as the magnif-
cent one that we displayed to the world at the
Columbian Exposition.
with those OF San Francisco. They should Join
with them in inviting the delegates to visit our
Gland of sunshine, fruits and flowers"
Every National Committeeman should be
''seen." We want this convention. The glory
OF San Francisco is the glory of California, and
in this case considerable part of the glory will
come south.
Los Angeles should do something.

The Western Country Overrun
by Guerrillas and Patriot
Forces.
SANTIAGO MAY SOON FALL.
The Fortified Spanish City Besieged by
the Victorious Army of
the East.

BOSTON, MASS, Oct. 30.--A special to
morning paper from Havana brings in
telligence of the activity of the insurgents
in the western part of the island. While
the insurgent army of the east is abso-
lutely in control of the eastern part of the
| island and even battering away at the
strong Spanish fortified city of Santiago
de Cuba, the western division is by no
means idle, and since the close of the
rainy season has carried on it's campaign
with skill and dispatch, SO that it is now
but short distance from Havana itself.
The dispatch says:
1.-THE insurgents have overrun the whole
western part of the island, and are now
only a short distance away. Since the
opening of the week they have done great
! damage and by their constant raids have
| terroriZed the whole neigh borhood. The
country people and those owning planta-
tions are fleeing to the city for shelter.
1t is not thought that the main army of
the division of the west has arrived as yet
in the vicinity, as these are undoubtedly
bands of irregular cavalry and guerrillas.
"The Spanish garrison is very small, the
heavy draft sent to Santiago de Cuba re-
ducing the number materially, and, until
the expected re-enforcements arrive from
Spain the insurgents will virtually have
their own way"
Another special from Santiago de Cuba,
dated October Is, says:
Another pitched battle was fought to-
| day between three companies of Spanish
cavalry and 800 rebels. The Spaniards
were under the command of Colonels Lam
zagorda and Laquierdo. They also were
accompanied by field battery. The en-
gagement lasted three hours, the insur-
gents being obliged to retire, losing 100
men. 1t is reported that the insurgents
chief, General Perequito Peres, was among
the killed. The Spanish loss was $50
men.
"Unless General Campos can push his
campaign forward with more energy than
at present the rebels will soon have con-
troll over every part of the island except
Havana and Santiago de Cuba. and the
capture of the latter city at an early date
Is almost a foregone conclusion"
