The legislative investigation into Hudson
county affairs came to an abrupt ending
last week, because the powers of the COM
mittee ceased with the adjournment of the
legislature. The resolution under which
the committee was acting empowered it to
sit " during the recess If the legislature"
and as the legislature had adjourned sine
die, the committee was dead. 1t looks now
as though the resolution was carefully
wOrded to avoid investigating Passaic and
Camden counties.

THE EFFECT ON SPECULATION.
How Bulls and Bears Profit by Con-
ffctfnu War lrrno,.s


How Bulls and Bears Profit by Con-
fiicting War Rumors.
New York, April There is a strong
conviction on Wall street that delay in
the sending in of the presidents mes
sage is favorable to the avoidance OF
war. This was clearly manifest in the
response of the market to the early
rumor from abroad that the president S
message would not go in yesterday,
and to the later authorized announce
ment from Washington that it would
be withheld until Monday. The dispo-
sition of the message was the central
point about which the whole market
turned all day. The assertions of the
morning newspapers that it would
without question go in, and that it
would declare for forcible intervention,
caused the decline at the opening, the
opening prices in almost all cases being
the lowest of the day.
The resistance TO the decline and the
quick recovery were a surprise to out
side observers. who We're prepared for
something like a war panic on the ex-
change. The recovery was due to
cabled reports of a rumor in London
that the message would not go in until
next Tuesday. This rumor was quickly
discredited by statements from Wash
ington, and the market drifted to a
lower plane again, but not to the low
est. The stagnation of the trading
during this period of waiting was al
most absolute, and the sudden out
break of activity when the later au-
thentic reports came from Washington
that the message would be delayed
until Monday was in strong contrast
1t was evident that the conclusion was
leaped to that the withholding of the
message was due to a reception of fur
Their proposals from Spain or to move
ments for mediation by European pow
ers, giving promise that the two coun-
tries might emerge peacefully from
their ENHANCEMENT. The violent adj
vance was checked and reaction set in
when it was stated that delay was due
to advices from Consul General Lee
Prices stiffened again. however, before
the close, on the strength of the general
sentiment that delay favored peace.
