BRITISH FlNhNClERS ARE SOME
WHAT NERVOUS OVER THE
SITUATION.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

London, July 27.-1he kcencst interest
is manifested in the stock exchange in the
financial condition Of New York, the ef.
feet Of which was shown today by the de-
cline in Americans Of half 10 two points
below Saturdays close.
The American bank statement was re-
garded as disappointing, the fact that
there was no reduction in loans in spite
Of the heavy liquidation causing uneasi-
ness.
Operators on the stock exchange were
nervous waiting news Of the developments
in Wall street.
Lord Rothschilds said to a representa-
tive OF the press:
There is no English news il is Amer
ican ncws-what has taken place in New
York-that we desire. No one here knows
about the depression in New York.
"Onc person says il is due TO private
speculation, another says it is due to the
trusts, and another claims the American
financial laws are not separately elastic.
"At the present moment there Is no
speculation here in Americans, but the in
vestmcnts are always being made"

New York. July s7.-Another failure
was recorded this morning when Official
announcement was made on the exchange
ol the suspension of Edwin s. lloolcy &
Co. The firm includes besides MIR. lloolcy,
Frank Brumley aud Norbert lIeinshcimcr.

suspension caused little surprise. In
some quarters in fact the announcement
has been discounted.
The market opened irregular and frac-
ti0nally lower.
II rallied just before the lIoolcy failure
was announced, after which il declined
slightly and then rallied again.
The members OF the firm OF lIooley &
co. had no statement TO make up TO II
o'clock.
The general belief is that the failure
OF the firm was due largely TO the heavy
drop in the prices of Dcs Moincs and
Fort Dodge, and Evansville and Terre
llaute stocks on Saturday.
Had No Interest.
1t is said w. l.. Stowe had no interest
in Evansville and Tcrrc lIaute securities.
OF which company +. H. Hartman is the
president and in which his firm is under
stood to have been largely interested.
Last year Mr.. liooley and Mr.. Stowe
bought control of the Des Moines and
Fort Dodge property and at an annual
meeting elected the directors representing
heir interests and las. year they elected
three more.
The lease under which the Rock Island
operates the property is still in force.
Shortly after noon announcement was
made of the failure Of William Bassctt &
Co., members Of the Boston and New York
exchanges.
The firm had practically no contracts
outstanding on the New York exchange
for more than a year, and the failure was
regarded as comparatively unimportant
A messenger from Boston says that
William Bassett Of So State street, a com
mission broker, member Of the Boston and
New York stock exchanges, failed today.
Mr.. Bassett has for long time handled
municipal bonds.
No statement is available at present, but
the failure in financial circles is important.
No Statement Ready.
Philip J. Britt, the assignee Of Talbot
j. Taylor Co., said today that he was
not prepared to make a statement as yet
regarding the company's affairs.
It was said that if the market remains
1T all good the firm should be able to re-
sumo soon.
At the office Of w. l.. Stow & CO., the
assignee is still at work on the books.

Rome July a7.-The vatican resembles
an ant-hill so feverish is the work of
preparing the part of that building set
aside for the conclave.
Before 1870 conclaves were held in the
quirinal palace, one long wing OF which
was always ready without any special
preparation.
But in the case Of the vatican apart
ments of three or four rooms for each
cardinal have to be specially prepared, and
as there are so many more cardinals the
work is greater.
Court of San Damaso.
The section designed for the cardinals
CO re comprises on the ground floor of
the vatican the three suites which sur
round the famous court of San Damaso,
the rooms under the late pope's apart
ment and the tower with the rooms about
the Sala du Gale.
On the second floor the rooms about
Loggia Raphael and the pontifcal Offices,
comprising all the apartments formerly
occupied by Cardinal Rampolla, who has
left the vatican altogether, will be used as
the whole will furnish conmodious lodg-
ing for about 500 people.
The Sistine chapel, as in the case of the
last conclave, will be used for the meet
ings for the cardinals.

Washington, July s7.-W. A. Miller, as
sistant foreman of the government book
binding Office resumed his duties today.
He was assigned to his work in charge
of the men who have been waging a
vigorous war on him, but the men, in
accordance with the union leaders con-
tinued at work technically under pro-

Secretary Doherty of the International
Brotherhood of Bookbinders has arrived

hood being detained by illness.
No radical action of any sort is now
contemplated. Public Printer Palmer and
President Barrett of the local Book
binders union differ in their statements
as to the consideration of the charges.
Palmer says today that the charges are
not being investigated and would not be
except under certain circumstances, which
he declined to specify.
Barrett says the charges arc under in
vestigation, pending which the union does
not intend to force the public printers
hands"
1t is also stated that if the public
printer does not sustain the charges the
union will appeal directly to the president
to remove Miller on the charges OH which
his expulsion from the union was based.

PRINTERS QUIT;
NO PAPER OUT
LINOTYPE OPERATORS AT THE
SPOKESMAN REVIEW ARE
NOW IDLE.
ny ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Spokane, July s7.-Every printer en-
ployed in the composing room of the
Spokcsman-Review quit work last night.
For the first time in nearly II years no
paper was published this morning.
AS the Evening Chronicle and Evening
Bulletin use the same composing room
under contract, both these papers are
equally involved. The trouble arises from
a disagreement as TO wages
This was submitted to arbitration under
provisions Of the contract between the
American Newspaper Publishers associa-
tion and the International Typographical
union, under which contract the Typo
graphical union agreed to protect the
Spokesman Review from strikes and walk
outs until May /, 1907. The arbitrators
decided in favor Of the publishers.
The printers appealed to the National
Board OF Arbitration, consisting of Presi-
dent Lynch Of the Typographical union,
Commissioners Driscoll OF the Publishers
association and a third man TO be chosen
by them.
President Lynch, however, refused 20
arbitrate and following his refusal the
printers walked out.
The Spokesman-Revicw has made for
NAL demand on the International union
that it shall furnish printers in accordance
with its contract.

CroSs-Examination of &C.
ologiSt Finch Fails to
Shake Him At All.
IN THE N|PPER CASE
The Taking of Testimony
for the Defense Is
Continued.

State Geologist Finch Of Colorado, the
fifth expert witness for the defendants in
the Nipper case, who went on the witness
stand last week, spent another day on
the stand today under cross-examination
by Heinze's lawyers.
The evidence that he gave on direct
examination was not materially affected
however, Notwithstanding the cross-ques-
tioning by Attorney Mediation was
searching and rigid.
Sticks to Statements.
He stuck to his original views as TO
the deposits in the litigated ground, and
the existence of the northwest Blue vein
and the non-existence of the so-callcd east
and west Nipper vein.
All manner of attacks was made on
him, Mr.. Mediation jumping from one
issue or condition to another, and from
one hypothetical question to another with
surprising abruptness and confusing
changes of method, but without any
visible results.
When Mr.. Finch took the stand this
afternoon the subject of brecciation was
opened and Mr.. Mediation said:
Can there be brecciation without a
faulting attended by a thrown"
No; | think brecciation is a distinct
feature of faulting. There is volcanic
breccia, but that is something else" the
witness replied.
Breaking Up and Grinding.
Can't there be breaking up and grind
ing without throw either one way or the
other?"
mo; think not"
May there not be grinding and
crushing resulting in no particular throw?"
Il think not"
You said that an ounce of copper is
enough to impregnate an acre of granite 7"
"Yes"
Would it so color the granite that the
granite would assay one and half per
cent copper?"
"No," the witness replied.
To Color an Acre.
How much copper would it take to
color an acre of granite SO it would assay
that much?' was the next question.
1t caused a smile and the witness said
he would not undertake to answer it on
the spur of the moment.
IF you found granite walls and fs-
sure giving some assay value going down
into the earth and followed them till you
came to commercial ore what would you
say as TO the granite being vein material
at the outset on the surface?" was asked
1T might be one thing or another. One
might follow crack into vcin," was the
reply.
well, IL you followed the same crack
and the naturalization increased on the
way down, wouldn't you call it vein 7"
"Well, yes, If it showed vein matter"
Following a Vein.
"1f you followed vein on its strike
and encountered small quantity of kao-
lin; passed through the kaolin and found
ore again, would you be in the same ore
as at the start?"
81 think So"
"Would it be the same vein?"
81 think so.'

illustrate certain vein formations was
