a SENSATION.
The sensational feature Of the day was
an early break in International Power
of 80 points. There was a partial recov-
cry. but in the afternoon all supporting
orders were withdrawn and the stock
sold from 1875 down to 12o. This had a
depressing effect upon Locomotive COM

sold two days ago at par. went down to
90. There was q partial recovery III botn
issues, however, before the close Inc
impression prevails that there is a close
connection between International Power
and Locomotive. No official explanation
was given for the break in international
Power, but 1t was rrmored from Wall
Street that an operator not connected In
any official capacity with the company
had taken on too much stock and had
been sold out by his brokers. The weak
ness of these two stocks gradually affect

became moro pronounced when sharp

UP to S per cent. 1t was explained that

COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, April so..The cotton market
opened firm with prices 3@r11 points higher, this
being fair response to bullish Liverpool cables
and to firm advices from Southern spot markets.
Of the day, as liquidation and bear pressure sent
the whole list of sharply after the call, and
tho subsequent reaction did not fully rally the
market. Trading was less active than during
the earlier part of the week. and for the most
part comprised professional tnterchanges There
was no doubling that the room was bearish, and
this feeling had a tendency to make timd longs
lsve Liverpool eased 81 sharply upon finding

generally favorable crop and weather reports,
checked tho Investment support. In the early
afternoon light estimate for New Orleans re-

the rest of the day the market worked slowly

NO TRUTH IN REPORT.
General Dearey Has Not Surrendered
to the British.
(Dy Associated Press.)

LONDON. April S0.-There is no truth
in the report circulated in the United
States to-day that General Delarey, with
three Boer commands, has surrendered
to the British in South Africa
The War Office received dispatches
from Lord Kitchener to-day. but he made
no mention of surrenders.
Operators on the Stock Exchange were
busy with peace rumors, but they were
all very vague. The Boer commands
were said to have surrendered. This later
was supplemented by the New York re-
port that General Delarey and three COM
mardos had given themselves up. AS a
matter of fact. Delarey arrived at Klerks-
dcrr April 24th, ana his commands, I'M
der General Kemp, were arranging to hold
a meeting westward Of that place during
the present week.
a dispatch from Pretoria, dated to-day,
announces that State Secretary Reitz. of
tho Transvaal has had a meeting with
Cnmmandant Myers in the Petersburg
district, but the result of the meeting is
rot known.

Prohibition Leader shot by Man OF
whom He Tried to Collect Debt.
EFFINGHANI, ILL.,, Nov. S. Hon.
Hale Johnson, a Prohibition leader of
national prominence and vice presi-
deIftial candidate on the Prohibition
ticket in 1896, was shot and killed by
Harry Harris late yesterday at Bogota,
a village in Jasper county thirty miles
from here. Mr.. Johnson who was
practicing law at Newton, the county
sea, went to Bogota to collect an ac-.
count on which judgment had already
been rendered against Harris.
An alteration occurred between
Johnson and Harris at the Harris
home, and the latter secured shotgun
and fired at johnson at close range, the
charge striking Johnson in the face
and causing instant death. Immediate
" after the shooting Harris jumped
into Johnson's buggy and attempted to
make his escape, but was apprehended
by a deputy sheriff who had accompa-
MED Johnson and who was witness
to the shooting. Johnson's body was
taken to his home in Newton, and Har-
ris was locked UP in jail in the same
place.
Harris at late hour committed sui
eide in the county jail by taking poison.
Johnson was the nominee of the Pro-
hibition party in this state for governor
in 1896, but later accepted the nominal
tion for the vice presidency and with
drew as gubernatorial candidate.
