The panic on Wall street yesterday
had its reflection in every city and con-
siderable town in the United States, and
Wheeling was no exception. On the
local exchanges, early yesterday morn
ing, there was distinct feeling of eX-
pectancy of coming disaster, and this
fear was abundantly realized as the day
progressed A few, realizing the COM
ing storm, had prepared against it; the
majority had net, and when the break
came after the opening there was a
grand rush for cover Margins were
wiped out in a twinkling, and in some
cases there was little difficulty about
money, but in the end everything
locally was made good, and although
paper losses were large, there were very
few lame ducks at the end of the day,
and last night there was general be-
lief that the market would recoup to a
very considerable extent, and that those
able to hold on would come out nearly
or entirely whole. There was general
realizing sense that profits ought to
have been taken last week, and that in
vestors should have kept out of it until
the storm so evidently brewing had
blown over, but conditions were accept
ed with what equinamity was at hand.

residence section of Los Angeles.

next 200 at 10, followed by the sale
of 300 at 1870 for cash. marking the
requirement OF the short interest which
mad failed to borrow stock for deliv-
cry last night. Elsewhere in the list
there were heavy breaks. Union Pa

for cash indicated the ruinous terms on
which the shorts were being forced to
cover their contracts and kept alive the
dread of the effects of the corner on the
rest of the market. The regular quota
