MARKET REPORTS

Features of the Days Dealings in All

New York, Aug. 10.-Measures were
adopted in Wall street. today similar to
those of last Thursday when the demon
allied break in stocks was checked by
the opportune protective measures of
large banking interests and market man

t1ict by men prominent in the financial
world to repair the damage by Saturdays
violent break in prices. The downward
plunge in prices was checked for the time
but there was no such sustained tenden-
cy to recover as was the case, last Thurs
day. and the sentiment regarding the
market continued feversh and unsettled
throughout the day. Early dealings gave
clear indication of the large part played
by professional operations on the short
side in causing Saturdays slump in the
market. When it became clear this
morning, that effective measures had been
taken to hold prices at the start. there
was something of a scramble amongst
the shorts to cover their outstanding com
mitmentS, which caused a strong rebound
in prices. The demand was notably ur-
gent for Canadian Pacific. The demand
for shorts was very conspicuous also in
Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and Met
rOpolitan Street Railway. The fact that
spots again, which would force suspen-
sions, was allayed by the announcement
at the end of the first hour of trading.
that all sheets had passed through the
Clearing House. The market was not free
from points of time in different parts of
the list. The market turned strong in
the last hour and the early top level was
generally exceeded and the active stocks
rose from l to points over Saturday s
closing level. The closing was quiet and
steady, with the advances well maintain
ed. Bonds were heavy.

HUMBERT TRIAL.
Madame Therese Says She
Has Found the Crawfords.
If They Do Not Appear in Court She
Will Dvulge Real Names.
Ninety Witnesses to Be Heard, Outside
of the Family.

Paris, Aug. 1O.-The trial of the
Humbert family on the charges of for
gerry and swindling in connection with
the fictitious Crawford millions was re-
sumed, today, and drew another large
crowd.
Madame Therese Humbert continued
to dominate the proceedings and Gre
ated several scenes when the court at
tempted to examine the other membrs
of tn family. NJ. Bonnet, the presiding
judge, insisted on examining Frederic
Humbert, her husband, but Madame
Therese arising, said: demand to be
heard. I am strong, today, and will
explain where the millions are"
The Judge, however, proceeded with
the examination of the other defend
ants. During his searching interroga-
ton of her husband, Madame Therese
dramatically exclaimed:
Monsieur the president: You are
clearly showing by your manner that
you are against us. You disguise your
feelings and try to appear impartial"
The spectators We're greatly amused
at this outburst. The judge ordered
Madame Humbert to desist, but she
again shouted. L GU ttlS CollllultS'iis
showing your prejudice
Frederic Humbert testified lengthlly
regarding the affairs of the Rente Via
gere the insurance concern which the
HumbertS started and in the crash of
which thousands of poor people lost
all their savings. He maintained that
the operations were conducted in good
faith and claimed that public prejudice
aroused against the Humbert family
brought about the failure of the con-
Germ. He emphatically denied the
Judges statement that the rooms in
the palatial residence of the Humberts
in the avenue De la Grande Armee
We're connected by Il system of secret
telephone. Madame Therese also eX-
claimed: Lies, mere lies"
Frederic Humbert said he had left the
financial operations to his wife.
The examination of Roumain d Ar
goniac, Madame Humbert's brother,
brought out nothing new.
Roman Durignac testified that Ma
dame Therese commissioned him to
trace the whereabouts of the Crawford
brothers.
Madame Humbert here made another
declaratory statement, protesting her
complete innocence.
Il have tried to find the CraWfordS
and their Millions she said. Il have
not succeeded in finding the money but
| have found the CraWfords They
have made a terrible revelation to me
| have told Maitre Labor all. He
knows the real name of the CraWfords
for they do not call themselves by the
name of Crawford. No one will suffer
any loss. | will pay every one. Per-
haps the CraWfords may not appear
but they exist. 1t is only their name
that does not exist"
The judge, interrupting her asked:
"Then. where are the CraWfords?
"If the CraWfords do not come here
| will give their name, and that will
suffice" replied Madame Thercse. 81
have already told Maitre Labor that
when the witnesses have been heard
and the hearing is concluded, l will
tell all"
The court then began the examina-
ton of the 80 witnesses called, Outsid
the family, which will occupy many
days.
