CHICAGO SUSPECTS HELD.
They Had Preliminary Hearing in
 Court This Morning.

Chicago, Sept 7.-The names of the of being implicated in the plot to as- sassinate President Mckinley are:
 Abram Isaac, Abraham Isaac, Jr, Hippolyte Havel, Henry Trevegile, Clemens Pfoutzner and Alfred Schnei- der. The examination of the prison CTS lasted until early this morning, but the police refused to make public what information had been secured.
 Captain Colleran, chief of the de- tective bureau, however, gave out the following:
 "The raid was made in consequence of telegram from secret service of ficials in Buffalo asking us to investi- gate and learn the whereabouts of the headquarters of paper known as the Free Society. We traced the owner to the house at 515 Carol ave- nue and there found the persons ar rested, apparently in the midst of an important meeting. All the prisoners admit they are anarchists and do not hesitate to say that they have no re- gard for the laws as now enforced.
 Some of the men, learned, have served terms in prisons in their native countries for attempted crimes. inspir- ed by their anarchistic beliefs. The paper Free Society, published by Isaak, I have learned, was formerly issued on the Pacific coast and it was only recently that Isaak opened an of flee here"
 Captain Colleran said the prisoners would be held pending a further ex- animation to-day.

BURIED BOMBS FOUND
Near the Haymarket Monument |
 Chicago.

Chicago, Sept Hurried close to where the Haymarket monument stood facing Randolph street, a city laborer found two large dynamite bombs. Word of the discovery spread quickly and a crowd soon gathered around the excavation and gazed curiously at the explosives. They were taken to In- spector Shea's office in Displaines street. The inspector ordered them destroyed. A superficial examination of the bombs convinced Inspector Shea that they were loaded with dynamite and capa- ble of causing serious damage if they were exploded The police are at 8 loss to explain how the bombs were buried in the street.

 This Morning.

5I nlS MOfnlng.
 Buffalo, Sept 7.-Secretary Wilson called at the home of Mr Milburn to see the president at S:30. Half an hour later Secretary Root walked briskly up to the front door. He was met by Secretary Cortelyou. The sec retary was at once taken up to the room where the president lies. Mayor Diehl also called this morning and ;n- quired about the presidents condition. Attorney General Knox arrived at the house at 9:30 and few minutes later Senator Hanna joined those inside.
 Buckfield, Me, Sept 7.-When the news of the attempted assassination of President Mckinley reached Secre- tary of the Navy John D.

WALL STREET AsTIR.
All Efforts Made to Counteract News
 of the Shooting.


 New York, Sept Wall street was astir early this morning with prepara- tions to meet the crisis precipitated upon the financial world by the shoot ing down of the president at Buffalo yesterday. The situation was recog- nized as serious on all hands, but the fact that the news had not come on a market active in operation and that the maximum of time possible had elapsed from the occurrence of the dis aster to the resumption of trading, was consideredl fortunate. So also was the fact that the London stock ex- change happened to be closed to-day, thus barring the chance of manipula- ton against values in that market, which might haveI aggravated the eff feet upon the market here.
 All efforts were therefore concentrat> ed to meet the effect of the news upon the New York stock exchange.
 The reports from Buffalo of the presidents condition this morning were considered favorable as mitigat- ing the first imminent probability of the presidents death. The shooting of the president, even in the event of his survival, must necessarily be a shock to finance and credit, but the first effects would undoubtedly be modified by the chance of his recov- cry.

Waterbury Democrat., 1901-09-07


 many excited brokers gathered at the different posts of the stock exchange as the hour of 10 o'clock approached and there were many anxious watchers scanning the ticker all over the Wall street district. The first quotations on the tape was Canada Southern with a drop of 2h. Then came Southern Rail- way, only 11a lower than last night. Missouri Pacific followed with sluSnp of points, and Erie first preferred, af- ter opening off 314 dropped an extreme 4]5 and so it went with other stocks all through the list. The leading rail- road stocks were the seyerest suffer CTS. The grangers, Pacifics and South westerns showed declines of over 5 points. United States Steel stocks opened wide, first sales of the common being of 10000 Ahares at fl to 421s compared with 451s last night, and 4,0O0 shares of the preferred, sold at 92 and 91A compared with 94A last night. Amalgamated Copper fell 5 points within a few minutes of the first sales of 4.500 shares. Ten thou sand shares each of Southern Pacific, Union Pacific and Erie were the first sales recorded on the tape.

Very heavy blocks kept coming out, however, and the market maintained its feverish and excited tone.
 After the first blow the effect of supporting orders made itself quickly felt and from the opening level there were quick rallies of from to 3H points in the principal stocks which had lost most heavily.

QUESTION OF SALARIES
COMMISSIONERS TAKE FINAL. AC-
TION, BUT GIVE NO REPORT.

The committee of county commissions
ers appointed to adjust the salaries of
certain county offices met yesterday, and
completed its buainess. but refused to
make public any portion of it's report un-
til 1t shall have been first submitted to
the board of commissioners.
1t is, however, well understood by those
interested that the committee win rec
omnend that the different county off,
GERS be allowed practically just what
they have asked. It is said that there
will be no change in the salary allowance
for the county attorneys Office, OF that
of the judge of probate, and that the
auditor will be allowed what he has
formerly received The assessor has
asked that he be allowed s11 500 for the
odd numbered years, and $4,000 for the
even numbered years, when the real es-
tate assessments are allowed, and it is
said that the committee will recommend
that the request be granted. There has
been some talk of scaling down the sal
airy allowance of the county treasurer,
and the committee may make some small
reduction. but will not state positively
as to that.
