DUE TO LIQUIDATION
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK. October 7.-Advances in the
London market extending from u to 2 per
cent stimulated a moderate rally in the
local market during the opening hour this
morning. Foreign buying was based on. the
theory that a considerable short interest
existed and that rally was due. This
view did not prevail on this side, however,
and stocks freely sold by commission
houses and the room.
There was no evidence of concern over
the markets action, but prices suffered
from liquidation intended to relieve the
banking situation. Loans Were shifted
about during the morning, and call money
rated at 10 to IL per cent. Later in the day
twelve months loan on mixed Industrial
collateral at per cent was made, and call
rates dropped to per cent
This decline in the money rate had lttia
influence on prices. however, and the SELL
Ing was continued because the market was
capable of absorbing long stock and tha
banks continued to urge tightening of ac-
counts. The low prices of yesterday wers
duplicated in many instances. and III the
more active issues the lowest prices Of tha
decline were recorded.
A rumor of the serious illness of Mr..
sage caused a fresh outburSt of selling dur
ing the afternoon, and the subsequent de-
NAL Of the report failed to arrest the de-
cline.
Missouri Pacific sold off easily under a
liberal supply of stock and the entire
Gould list came into the movement for SUBJ
stantial losses.
Pennsylvania was sold down under 1GO
under pressure of speculative long stock,
and the coal group generally was heavy.
The meeting between representa- ives of the
President of the United States and the mine
workers in Philadelphia last night had lit
tie influence on prices. The coal strike set
tlement is anxiously awaited, but the sug-
gestlons from Washington are along the
line of preventing public suffering and leave
the questions in dispute open.
Any resumption of mining would probably
be considered a favorable factor at this
time, however, even in the stock market
Canadian Pacific. after a rally during the
morning, sold off under mixed trading by
London and the followers of the Montreal
pool.
Southern Pacific was a decided weak fea-
ture, and the selling of Atchison broke
through all supporting orders and scored
a substantial decline.
The low-priced shares declined under an
effort to market them at a most inoppor-
tune time
The strike among the employees of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron Company was
made light of, but served to unsettle the
industrial list. A sharp decline in Ameri-
can Sugar and the older industrials was a
discouraging factor of the afternoons trad
ing. The Steel stocks were heavy and lack
cd support. Rumors of an early arrival Of
81, SOC, 900 gold from Australia had no effect
on prices. nor had Secretary Shaw's offer
to buy government bonds at bargain prices
and in small lots.

SAMUEL ARNOLD DEAD.
He Was Convicted Of Participation in
Lincoln's Assassination.

BALTIMORE, Md, October samuel
Arnold, seventy-two years old, who was
convicted in 1865 of participation in the
assassination of Abraham Lincoln, is dead
at his home at Masonville, Anne Arundel
county.
Arnold, along with DR.. Mudd. Frank Nc
Laughlin and others, was tried and con-
victed in Washington during Andrew john
sons term of office. Arnold and Mudd were
sent to the Dry Tortugas for life, but were
pardoned by President Johnson after he
had been acquitted in the parchment
trial. All efforts to get Arnold's story OF
the incidents leading up to the tragic death
of President Lincoln were futile. Il have
prepared statement which will exonerate
me from guilt, which will be given to the
world after my DEATH, was all he would
say concerning the tragedy.
1t is not now known whether Arnold left
his promised statement or not.

association, Marshall Gushing Of New York
I'VE do not oppose organized labor" said
Mr.. Parry today, but we do oppose this
bill. 1t is hard enough now for us to get
foreign trade. We don't intend to be put
on the same footing as the manufacturers
of Great Britain, whose trade has been
simply slaughtered by laws similar to the
one now proposed.

To Prevent Dusty Roads.

According to Consul Thornwell Haynes
at Rouen, an Englishman now residing in
that city has invented a substance which,
when placed upon roads, does away with
dust and mud. This material consists of
the mixture of scoria from blast furnace
and tar 1t is said that the preparation, if
carefully pressed with heavy rollers, makes
the surface of the road impervious to water
and vehicles can travel at any rate Of speed
without inconvenience from dust or mud.
Much interest is being manifested in this
method. says the consul, when so many
trials are being made with oil and tar.

Return of Tariff Expert Sharretts

Mr.. Sharretts, the treasury expert who
went to China to transfer the ad valorem
schedules of the Chinese tariff into specific
duties, has reported to Secretary Hay in
person the completion of that task. The
tariff schedules prepared by Mr.. Sharretts

President Promised to APP
point a Commission
IF WORK IS RESUMED
MATTERS AT ISSUE WOULD BE
THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED.
No Response Has Come From the Labor
Leader-Believed That Miners Will
Discuss the Proposition.

The following statement was made pubic
at the temporary White House this after
noon
ION Monday October 6, Carroll D.
Wright, commissioner of labor, went to
Philadelphia and gave to Mr.. John Mitchell
the following from the President:
off Mr. Mitchell will secure the imme-
date return to work of the miners in the
anthracite regions the President will at
once appoint a commission to investigate
thoroughly into all the matters at issue be-
tween the operators and miners. and will do
all within his power to obtain settlement
of those questions in accordance with the
report of the commission
Mr. Mitchell has taken this matter under
consideration. but the President has not yet
been advised of any decision"
No further Information was given out
and nothing could be learned during the
dav from the number of people who talked
with the President on the coal strike Situa-
ton. The fact that President Mitchell mas
returned no answer to the proposition OF
the President is construed by some as IN
dicatng that he will not care to accept the
proposition BY others 1t is thought that
the chief of the miners Is going to submit
the proposition to the bodies of miners or
to his advisers before acting. He probably
did this at Wilkesbarre last night and the
district presidents may De talking II over
today with the leaders of the miners
The proposition Of the President differs
from most of the suggestions that have
been made as to his intended action. The
proposition is not expected to prove allur-
ing to the miners unless they have arrived
at the point where they see defeat staring
them in the face in the end. The promise
OF the President could be relied upon fully,
and in this the miners would have faith.
but the chances to be taken would be re-
mote ones of a settlement satisfactory to
them. They would first have to depend
upon the commission making a report that
would incorporate part of their demands
recommendation. Next would come
the ability of the President to bring about
a settlement in accordance with the report
of the commission. There is only one con-
tingency that might be favorable in this
direction. That would be that the opera
tors themselves would give some assur-
ance to the President that they would
abide by the report of the commission
That would be one of the main points for
consideration of the miners.
II the President has received intlmatons
Of any kind from the miners he has re-
Trained from giving the slightest knowledge
of them to any one who has talked on the
subject. Mr.. Mitchell has gone to Buffalo
to meet representatives of the manufac-
turers, and 1t is not known when he Intends
to act on the proposition laid before him.

Nothing to Say at Present.
President Mitchell was shown the state
ment that President Roosevelt had request
ed him to use his influence to induce the
men to return to work, with promise OF
the appointment Of a commission to investi-
gate the miners grievances. Mr.. Mitchell
read the dispatch carefully and then said
that he would not discuss the matter at all.
In reply to several questions regarding
President Roosevelt's request Mitchell made
the same reply: II have nothing to say on
ne subject at present.
