 YESIERDAY,s STOCK MARKET
Disposition 10 Continue Downward
 Movement.

Disposition to Continue Downward
 Movement.
 New York, May 3.-The early stock market to-day showed some disposition to continue the downward movement which was in force yesterday The operators for a decline seemed to cen- ter their selling on United States Steel pf, while the supporters of the market rallied their efforts upon Union Pacific Neither movement was explained by any news of the day. The general movement was extremely sluggish and narrow. The resumption of trading in London after the holiday with no evil dence of weakness by reason of the military events in Asia was a reassur- ing factor and there was some buying here for London account. On the other hand, the heavy decrease in net earn ings for March reported by the Penn sylvania system was weight upon the whole market The showing had strong reflex effect on United States Steel pf., owing to the large part play ed by steel tonnage in the traffic of that system. Pennsylvania stock itself was little affected. The weather map show ed very favorable conditions for the crops and the weather bureaus week ly summary of conditions gave a bet ter account of the seeding of spring wheat and some betterment of favor able conditions for winter wheat even in the districts which have suffered most. Call money showed firmer tone early for the first time in many days and the minimum rate was 1 IA per cent, with loans made above that. This was attributed to the growing influence of the gold exports and to the exigencies of the bidders for the $37,- the bids were announced call money

SKULL CRUSHED BY GAR.
TWO AND ONE HALF FEARS OLD
 CHILD
Struck by Trolley Car on State Street. Died at the New Haven Hospital Shortly After His ArrivaI-A Shock ing Accident Which Caused Great Ex- eitement Among Children of skinner School.

SchOOAs
 A most shocking accident occurred about four o'clock yesterday afternoon when little two and a half years old Raymond Carey had his skull crushed and received other injuries by being run over. by a trolley car in front of his home at I'll State street. The child was playing with a little toy horse, which he pushed in front of him, and he ran in the road and directly in front of a passing car, which struck him be- fore anything could be done.
 Car No. 72. of the State and Ferry streets line, in charge of Conductor A. Christensen and Motorman Frank c. Munson, was going out State street to- wards Ferry street, when 1t struck the child. The car. which was going at slow rate of speed, was stopped in less than twenty feet after the child was struck. In fact the head of the child was close in front of the right hand forward wheel when he was pick ed up and carried into his home. The mother of the child was in the front room of her home when the accident happened, and she was driven nearly frantic by the sight. Dr. James Gleeson arrived on the scene almost immediate ly after the accident and it is undoubt- edly owing to his treatment that the child did not die immediately. He was assisted by pr. Murphy at the house.
 Tn the meantime Sergeant Connolly, who was in the vicinity at the time, summoned the Grand avenue police ambulance and he then rendered what assistance he could. Dr. Gleeson sum moned the New Haven hospital ann bulance and the child was taken to that institution. On it's arrival there, everything possible was done to save it's life but all efforts were unavailing, as little Raymond died at 6:S0 o'clock last
 evening.
 The physicians at the hospital state that the child's skull was badly frac- tured in two places. there were injuries
 to the back and also probably internal injuries
 | There was large number of people
 on the scene and squad of police from
 the Grand avenue station rendered
 good service in keeping the crowd back. School was being dismissed when the accident happened and several hundred children from Skinner school. which Is nearly next door to where the accident happened. gathered in the street in
 front of the house.
 All those who witnessed the accident state that the men in charge of the ear were in nowise to blame inasmuch
 as the child darted in front of the car very unexpectedly, and before the car could possibly have been stopped, 1t was struck
 The child was one of large family of children and it's parents MT. and
 Mrs. John Carey, are nearly prostrated
 by it's death. The child was an exceed
 ingly bright one and much loved by all
 who knew him. The death was one of the saddest ones which has occurred in
 this city in long while. The arrange ments for the funeral have not yet been completed.

QUORUM
Authority it Exercises Over
 The Apostles
Testim ony Introduced in the Shoot Case to Show That the Church's Influence is Overshadowing.

Washington, March 1O.-One of the most interesting and important feat ures of the investigation of the Reed Shoot case before the committee on privileges and elections was brought out today in the testimony of r. B. Critchlow, formerly an assistant United States attorney in Utah, who told the story of the Moses Thatcher episode.
 According to his version, which was borne out by the official records Apostle Thatcher persisted in continuing as d candidate for the United States senate against the wishes of a quorum of the to be mot in harmony with his quorum"
 The history of the campaign he made against the wishes of his fellow Nor mons, of his defeat and his subse- quent trial before a committee of church officials was given in detail. and then Thatcher's submission to the will of the church was read and put in the record of the Shoot investigation. This recantation showed that Thatcher was totally broken in spirit and bowed ab solutely to the mandates of the church in that the consent of the quorum must be obtained in order that he may con tinue in good standing. The purpose of the testimony was to show that it was necessary, according to the rules of the church. for MT. Shoot to have obtained the consent of the church be- fore he could have become a candidate for the senate.
 In addition to the Thatcher episode Mir. Critchlow gave the history of the prosecutions in Utah on charges of polygamous cohabition since the pass age of the Edmunds law and the legis- lation in the territory and state, which affects Mormonism or polygamy. His story was concise and entertaining, and he was interrupted but little.
 Andrew Jensen, the assistant his tOrian of the church gave testimony showing the supremacy of the presi- dent of the church. He related the methods of the church, it's control by presidents of stakes and bishops. The president of the church, said this wit
 ness, appointed the president of tn, stakes, some fifty-three in number, anC | these latter appointed the bishops several hundred in number. The bis hops could not act until their appoint
 ment was approved by the presiden
 of the church.

A BATTLE OF MAGNITUDE.
Considered at St. Petersburg Among
 Early Probabilities.

St. Petersburg. March l0.-Tha only piece of important news up to this hour today from the seat of war was an Associated Press dispatch from Port Arthur announcing a fresh attack on that place by the Japanese fleet. The dispatch contained no details.
 Another telegram to the Associated Press from Vladivostok was received. There was no mention of fighting, and it is assumed that all IS quiet there.
 It is reported that the Japanese have entered Manchuria west of the YaIu river and have reached Feng Huan Teheng. on the Pel<in road, with in the Russian line of communication to the Yalu, but the report cannot be confirmed. If the information proves true a land engagement of some mag nitude canot be long delayed, as the Russians have a heavy force south of the line between Liao Yang and Muk- den, and are also occupying a strong position along the Yalu. The Japanese column between them will be in des- perate straits unless if moves by the flank and takes the Russians on the Yalu in the rear and is energetically supported by a, forward Japanese movement from Korea.

TEMPEST ON THE COAST
Worst in Thirteen Years Ragged From
 San Diego to Vancouver.

San Francisco, Cal, March 10.-The worst rain and windstorm in thirteen years swept over this city and along the Pacific coast today doing much damage. The storm extends from San Diego to Vancouver island, and it is feared that marine disasters have oc- cured along the coast.
 In this city, this morning the bar ometer reached 29.23, the lowest record, and the wind registered d velocity of ty-eight miles an hour, while at Sacramento, a gale of siXty-four miles an hour was recorded. Telegraph and telephone wires were prostrated in every direction. and for several hours this city was entirely cut off from the outside world.
 At the Cliff house, on the beach near the entrance of San Francisco bay the tempest waves dashed against the rocky shore and sent masses of spray over the huge baths, a steel building fifty feet high.
 Numerous small crafts on the bay were blown ashore and the damage tc shipping will amount to many thous- ands of dollars.
