ing much to prevent the successful fru-
ition of the efforts to bring about inter-
national bimetallism. He thought that
such efforts as the Colorado senator
was making were not only unfair but
unwise in view of his CTelIer's) hereto
fore expressed desire to bring about
international bimetallism. He hoped
therefore that he would do nothing to
paralyze the efforts now making in IA
vor Of an international agreement on
the silver question.
Il want to bring about an information
al agreement" said Mr.. Teller 'And
think 1 have done as much to bring it
about as any man in this chamber if 1
except the senator who sits in front of
me (Allison). When he returned from
Europe without success, I felt that it
was practically useless to proceed fur
ther in that direction"
CUBA ON CHINA.
II do not believe" said Mr.. Teller,
that war would result il we were TO
put our hands out to support Cuba. 1t
would be z humane thing for US to do
a reasonable and just act. The French
struggling as are the Cubans, and it is
doubtful whether We could have achiev
ed our independence without their aid"
In conclusion, Mr.. Teller again ad-
verted to foreign questions, speaking
particularly Of what he said appears
proposed dismemberment of China by
the European powers. He declared ne
would see to il, If he were in the posi-
ton OF the president. that the powers
OF Europe should not partition that
great empire without a strong protest
from this country. He believed that a
word from this government TO Russia,
France and Germany that they must
keep their hands off our rights and
privileges in China and that the autOn-
omy OF the empire should remain as il
has been for 1000 years, would be suffi-
cient to cause those great powers to
stop in their course Of rapacity.
IMMIGRATION BILL
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Teller's
speech, Mr.. Turner Of Washington
called up the immigration bill, saying
that as he was about to leave the city,
he desired TO submit some remarks up
on the DelCllR measure. ne SliOHSAs
urged the bill. He was not in favor OF
an educational qualification and insist
ed that the enactment Of that feature
Of the bill into law would falsify the
entire record of this country. His
speech was mainly directed against
what he termed the transportation mo-
nopoly and other trusts.
Mr.. Fairbanks Of Indiana gave notice
of a speech in favor Of the immigra-
ton bill next Tuesday.
Mt Butler Of North Carolina present
ed a joint resolution proposing an
to the constitution provid
ing for the election of the federal judi
ciary by the people. The resolution
went TO the table to allow Mr.. Butler
TO make a speech on it.

At 2:45 the senate went into executive

BULLS N FILL FORGE
Great Pressure For the Rein

MONEY RATES WEAKEN
Realizing at the Close Reduces
the Days Net Gain.


stocks today did not differ materially
from that OF yesterday. The most ag-
gressive bull mood from the bull world
continued in full force and all the
large professional operators were buy
ers OF stocks. The pressure for rein
vestment of funds which had been re-
leased by the January dividend and in
terest payments was very obvious.
There was also a marked weakening of
the rates for money, notwithstanding
the lively awakening Of speculation.
Efforts were made by the banks and
money lenders 10 keep the rate for
money as high as 3 per cent. Loans
were, in fact, placed at 31-2 per cent.
But the rate sagged off 20 . per cent.
and the last loan for the day only COM
manded 2l-2 peg cent. Owners for
money were also lively bidders for
commercial paper. This served TO stim-
ulate the speculative furore which
seems 20 have broken out. London was
quite large buyer in this market. of
several OF the international stocks. no
tably Union Pacific and Louisville and
Nashville. The Vanderbilts continued
10 hold the leading place on the report
ed determination Of the controlling in
terest in these controlling properties 10
see traffic rates maintained. There
was also a renewal of old reports Of a
combination involving these lines and
looking 10 through rans-cOntinental
traffic. The most conspicuous move
ment in the market was that in SusQue-
hanna and Western securities. due to
the reported passage of the control OF
the property 10 Erie interests. The
fears of minority stockholders led TO a
unloading Of their holdings and a slump
Of points in the common stock without
recovery. and Of points in the prefer
red. with a rally Of over a point in the
latter. The bonds OF the company were
very strong on the belief that there
would be a guarantee by the new con-
trolling company. This break caused a
sympathetic weakness in all the coalers
and mild weather worked 10 the same
end. The bituminOus coal roads were
on the other hand. notably strong.
Some OF the leading railroad stocks
show small net losses. but this tenden-
cy was most pronounced in the recently
active stocks of local corporations.
Manhattan became strong later on re-
ports Of a proposed change TO electric
motive power. and General Electric en-
dured a corresponding benefit. Consol-
idated Gas advanced at one time
points and Third Avenue nearly five.
The realizing Of the last hour invited
by the days notable rise affected the
specialties most, although it's effect was
quite marked throughout the list. re-
ducing the days net gain quite sharply
in some cases. Net gains outside the
coaiers and few specialties extend all
the way from fraction to over a point.
The abundant replenishment Of the 10
cal money market had led to talk of
surrender by the New York banks OF
the governments deposits now in their
vaults on account Of the Union Pacific
payment.
Total sales OF stocks today were AS
900 shares.
