 The value of these pictures in running down the plotters was not appreciated until yesterday, when a private exhibi- tion of the pictures of the Presidents g last speech was given by James White, manager of the Edison Company, at the Edison manufactory near Orange. That was the .irst time the panorama of the Presidents speech has been tried.
 President Mckinley and his wife are shown as they advance on the platform.
 The President takes his wife to her seat and then Is presented to the tre-
 mendous crowds that are pushing and showing to get closer to the speaker. As President Mckinley arises and be- gins his address a man Is seen to push
 his way through the densely packed
 crowd He wedges between men and
 women, and Is so determined to get near the President that he causes much discomfort and some anger. Several
 men are seen in the picture to turn upon him and attempt to impede his progress, but he fights nis way through, then turns and for the first time faces the kinetoscope.
 The face is undoubtedly that of Leon Czolgosz.
 Only for a fraction of second does he stand still. Then he again begins to

Siloarn Pool Again In Use.

| rom the Sunday Companion.
 For over ten years the Pool of Siloam has been only a name. Visitors to Pal estine who have visited this famous spot of late years have found that its healing waters have vanished. This was a great blow to the inhabitants, but just recently the waters of Siloam have been made to flow once again, and there has been great rejoicing in the Holy Land. It appears that Jeruselam has been especially short of water of late and 1t occurred to some of the inhabi- tants of Siloam to try and find out whether the spring which used to sup ply the spring was really dry. Tons of accumulated rubbish was cleared away and after about a months work the spring was found. The excavators dis covered behind some fallen rocks an old aqueduct running away into the valley of the Kedron, and into this aqueduct the beautiful, cool, clear water had run and been washing for years.

This time he looks wild and excited. His derby hat Is pulled down over hls eyes. but as he raises his head they can be seen readily.
 For some seconds he gazes about the crowd, either in search of some one or awaiting some signal. He is now within few feet of the President, and could readily have shot him, as he did the next day.

MAKING GOOD PROGRESS
The situation at Jacksonville Con-
stantly Improving.

Jacksonville, Fla. May 25.-The situ-
alton in the city today is much the
same as yesterday, and everything is
quiet. The work of the executive COM
mittee today consisted in paying the
laborers for the work of the week.
Chairman Stockton of the labor bureau
announced that he would reduce his
force on the streets between 10 and 100
Monday, owing to the report from the
lumber mills that they needed men to
work in the mills and owing to the
fact that there is plenty of work for
able bodied men at other work than
nat of h city.
Several permanent buildings are in
the course of construction and work
men who have been working on the
streets may secure employment on
these buildings.
Double rations were served at the
commissaries today so that the people
will not be compelled to visit the places
for supplies on sunday.
In a meeting of the Jacksonville
board of trade today, President Garner
and S. B.. Hubbard, one of the wealth.
lest men in the city, spoke in high
terms of the fairness and liabilities Of
the insurance companies.

Cotton Futures

New York, May 25.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady, with prices un-
changed to II points higher. July led
the advance, opening at 1892 as against
$50 last night. AS a matter of precau-
ton July shorts bought June as a
hedge, causing almost equal strength
in that position. Trading all the after
noon was excited, but not specially &C
tive. Room n southern near month
shorts were the leading buyers and
seemed desperately afraid that July
would each Sc before the close, as
offerings were slim and scaled up from
$50 to SC. Absence Of news from Liver
pool, which market was closed on &C
count Of Whitsuntide holiday, with
rumors Of a bad scare Of shorts in New
Orleans. helped 10 nnerv the bear in
terest and to stimulate buying for a
further advance. Receipts were heavy,
the weather south was fully as good as
expected and crop reports showed
steady improvement in the condition
generally. Claims hat large blocks of
low grade were coming here from the
south, the differences allowing hand
some profits on such shipments now
that III market is the highest in the
world, appeared to in no way calm
July shorts who continued to bid few
erishly for large blocks. An advance
to 7.95 occurred soon after the opening
and all the morning the market was
strong in an cratic way. The summer
months absorbed the bulk of attention,
though August failed to rise much
above last nights close. Feverish
support from shorts kept the market
up to the top during the late ses-
sion. The market closed inactive with
prices net 5 points higher to 5 lower.

New York stock Market

New York, May 25.-There was no
evidence of interest in today's stock
market beyond the manipulation oy
professionals in a limited number OF
stocks. The action OF the market
showed that many brokers and traders
followed the midsummer custom OF
not coming to the exchange at all for
the short session Of Saturday. Some
OF Yesterdays movements which gave
good promises of a period of activity
in the special stocks at EAST, recelV-
ed an untimely check. This was true
of the Tobacco stocks, which started
a rise, but which ended with sharp net
losses. The SouthweSternS were tenn
porarily strong on published admissions
from interests in the companies that
plans were working for the consolida-
ton and extension Of the properties.
Wheeling and Lake Fries strength
was in sympathy.
The rumors that an important snort
interest in Northern Pacific had effect
ed a private settlement, which was an
important influence in yesterdays late
rally, had lost their force today. This
was partly u to the lack or any au-
thoritative information on the subject.
While the completion of a settlement
with the shorts would be regarded with
relief, as removing a threat of further
forced liquidation from the market,
lltt WV i
deliveries of certificates leaves the in
ference strong that the Northern Pa
cific dispute still reaminS open.
An exchange authority
that the demand for credits in Europe
and England in connection with the
struggle for control of Northern Pa
cifc has run as high as $50, 000, 900. A
sale of Northern Pacific at 200 near the
close today revived consideration of
the subject. The last sale on Thurs
day was at 205 and last nights closing
quotation was 172 bid and go asked.
The closing today was $50 and 10
asked.
The strong position of the banks dis
closed by the bank statement failed to
revive the market. With a replenish-
ment of cash reserves to the extent of
So, 361 900 and growing ease in the mon
ey market the fact that loans should
have been paid off to the extent of S14,-
639, 500 carries a pretty plain intimation
that further important liquidation has
been going on in the stock market and
that there is no extensive inclination
to embark in new ventures in the mar
ket
The bond market has been quiet and
movement of prices irregular. Govern
ment bonds were unchanged or the call
prices, as compared with a week ago.
Total sales of stock today were 2S2, 700
shares.

Washington, May 24.-President Jas.
O'Connell, of the International Associ-
alton of Machinists, announced this.
afternoon that he would recommend
to the next annual convention of ma
chinists at Toronto, beginning June 3rd
that a date be set for a nine hour day
without reduction in wages, OF all the
railroads of the country. On railroads
which fail to comply with this demand
a strike will be ordered. This recon-
mendation will be made in Mr.. O'Con-
nelTs annua report. Mr.. O'Connell
say that such a strike would involve
probably loo, 600 men, including 10000
machinists, the others being boiler
makers, pattern makers and semi
skilled worknem who work for the
machinists in the various shops. The
policy will be to enforce the demand by
tying up practically the entire me
chanical services of the roads. 1t was
simply a matter of policy he said, thai
the railroads were not included in the
present strike. Mr.. O'Connell says the
convention doubtless will fix a date
when the nine-hour day must be in OPP
Grafton and he believes this date should
be some day in the autumn.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon Mr..
SOHBell SAID the OUTLOOK OF the pres
ent strike was very gratifying. a re-
port from Memphis, Tenn,
the signature of six establishments
there to the agreement.
The headquarters of the strike have
been shifted from Washington to Tor
onto. for which city President O'Con-
nell left tonight. He will stop en- route
at Pittsburg, Buffalo n possibly some
other city to confer with local strike
leaders and will take charge of the
Toronto headquarters Sunday night.
Newpor News, Va. May 24.-Presi-
dent E. j. Mulcahy, of the Newport
News lodge Of the International Asso-
citation Of Machinists, and Superinten-
dent w. A.. Post, Of the Newport News
~Shipbuilding Company, say that there
is no truth in the story that the ship
yard officials have been given until to-
morrow to answer the machinists' de-
mands. Both decline to state whether
any formal demand has been made by
the local union. If any action has beer
taken by the machinists here, the ne
EQUATIONS have been secret and con-
fidential on both Sides.
San Francisco, May 24.-As a result
OF the machinists' strike in this city.
all Of the United States army trans
ports needing repairs are to be sent
to the Mare Island navy yard. where
the work will be done. The Sherman
was the first vessel to go to the navy
yard under this order of the govern
ment authorities. The strike situation
Is unchanged, neither side showine a
disposition to yield.
