Depression Due tn the Passage of the
AntiBond Bill.
New York, June 3.-During the first
hour of business at the stock exchange

but the decline in no case was as much
as 1 per cent. The selling pressure came
principally from professional sources, al
though London parted with a little st.

due to the passage of the Butler anti-bond

Notions Of Steamship Captains Ex-
plodedby Some r ccent Occurrences.
Time was when shippers hooted at the
idea that tidal wave could in any degree
affect the big, twin-screw ocean liners.
This impression, however is an exploded
cue, forit was discovered some three years
ago that the huge waves might prove terrors
to them. The steamship Normannin had
an experience at that time that did much
toward changing the opinions of skepti-
cal siX-day shippers. 1t is easy now for
the nautical theorists to explain some of
the disappearances OF big ships. The
ocean in an angry mood is powerful enough
TO smash the stauchest liner, just as it
probably did smash the high sided twin
screw freighter Naronic and the National
liner Erin.
The Normannia was in the middle of the
gulf stream, about T6O miles east of Sandy
Hook. The current of the gulf, running at IA
force estimated to be about four miles an
hour, flows to east-nortbeast at this point
The gale had been blowing directly against
the current To this opposition of gale and
current is attributed the creation of the
phenomenal wave which struck the steam
ship All the passengers were in their state
rooms, either asleep or seasick, when the
Normannia, going at three-quarters Speed,
rose on the crest of mighty sea. 1t broke
under her stern just as she slid down the
green declivity, and il lifted the stern up
so that she plunged almost at an angle of
forty-five degrees in the trough
Just then a mightier sea than the first

MORE AFFIDAVITS ON FILE
Investigation of the Jail Will Prob
ably Be Commenced Saturday.
Mr.. Cook Informs the Judges that
Efforts Are Being Made to Influ-
ence His Witnesses.

An important cODsulta ton of the Justices
of the District supreme court was held
this morning, to complete the details Of a
meeting to be held Saturday morning, for
the purpose of investigating the charges
preferred against Warden Leonard, OF the
District Jail.
As yet that official has made no answer
TO the complaint, though he has sought an
audience with several OF the justices on
the subject. He was at the City Hall for
some time today, and in response to u
query, said he had not filed an answer,
and did not know when he would do SO.
At the meeting yesterday additional evil
dence was considered and given to Clerk
Young to be sent to the warden. All state
ments now being filed are under oath.
With yesterdays information Mr.. Cook
sent q communication, complaining to the
court that some of the tail officials had
been trying to get two of his witnesses
to change their testimony. He claimed that
Witnesses Cotton and Edds will support the
assertion under oath, and tomorrow or next
day an affidavit giving the facts Of a visit
OF a Jail official to see Edds will be filed.
Billy Williams is one OF the last wit
nesses. He tells how he and W. Calvin
Chase were very friendly until the last in
vestigation OF the Jail. when, he alleges,
Chase went around among the prisoners to
get them TO sign statement that every
thing was all right in the jail. Williams
states that he sold cigars and tobacco to the
prisoners and played crap, winning some
money.
In the statement of Frank Buckley
an ex. crook, at the jail, it is asserted that
whisky was drank in the warden's office,
aud that the intoxicant was brought there
by the quart at nearly every visit of the
grocer's wagon.

ton with the Jail management, has made
him figure in the present difficulty, was
