improvements to BE Made and the
western Maryland Bought.


western Maryland Bought.
New York, Feb ga syndicate of
New York bankers has agreed to lend
$50. 100000 for the purpose of improving
the Pennsylvania lines west of Pitts
burg and, also, it can be stated on
the authority of a member of the lead
ing syndicate. to provide funds for the
purchase of the Western Maryland
Railroad by the Norfolk and Western
as part of plan for the settlement of
the Could Pennsylvania differences.
The Western Maryland is controlled by
Gould interests, and its president, Jo-
seph Ramsey, Jr., is president of the
Wabash road.
According to the latest report, the
Western Maryland. which runs from
Baltimore to Williamsport, Md, and
leases number of smaller lines, has
outstanding about $15,7OO,oOO of COM
mon stock and $324.0OO of preferred
stock.
While the syndicate member said
that the loan would provide funds for
the purchase of the Western Maryland,
it could not be learned that negotia-
lions for such a purchase had been
closed.
Wall street regarded the statement
that one of the purposes of the loan
was the purchase of the Western
Maryland as very important. The diff
ferences between the Gould-Pennsyl-
vania interests have engaged the at
tention of financiers for months, and
while reports that an adjustment was
under way have been made repeat
eddy within the last few weeks, Off
cial confirmation is lacking. One OF
the rumors in circulation to-day was
that the Pennsylvania, after taking
over the Western Maryland, would give
the Gould lines a favorable arrange
ment for seaboard traffic.
The Pennsylvania will receive the
money April and issue notes bear
ing Az per cent. interest therefor, the
notes to be taken up in eighteen
months. 1t is not the intention of the
syndicate which has taken the notes
to offer them at public sale. The price
TO be paid for the notes was not made
public.

BROWN PLEAD
WITH BROKERS
TO STOP FALL OF COTTON.
THE BIG BULL MADE THE SELLERS
A SPEECH.

"You Will Break the Market and
Yourselves Take the Cotton
Yourselves and Carry 1t and You
Will Make Profit on IT, Was
what He Told Frightened BrOk-
ers-He Saved the Day-Regained
Some of the Heavy Loss.
New Orleans, Feb. 5.-JTo-day saw
the widest scenes of this week in the
cotton market.
At the lowest levels of the day prices
We're from 152 to $50 points lower than
the highest levels. and about cents
lower than what cotton was selling for
at the first of the week.
The market was thrown into panic
soon after the opening by the immense
amount of cotton that was offered for
sale. Where the offerings came from
was a mystery, but thousands of bales
were thrown upon the market, forcing
prices down 10 and 20 points at time.
Such wild scenes were never before
witnessed at the Cotton Exchange.
Crowds of people lined Gravier street,
watching the brokers in their eager
ness to get nearer the center of the
ring and offer their cotton. There APP
peared to be ten sellers to one buyer.
At the hight of the turmoil the bull
leader. w. p. Brown. plead with the
brokers to stop offering their cotton
IL and 20 points under the market.
You will break the market and
yourselves, if you continue" he said
Take the cotton yourselves and carry
it, and YOU will make profit on it,"
Browns stand against the selling i'm
mediately had it's effect, as it was
clearly evident to every one that the
rules of the exchange were being
broken by the way many brokers were
offering cotton. The bull leader follow
ed his speech by heavy bidding and
buying, and in a few minutes other
longs followed his lead, and in a short
time in place of the panic comparative
quiet reigned, and prices showed ma
terial recovery, although the market
had weak tone up to the close.
At the lowest levels of the day March
had lost 152 points at 1850, May had
lost IT'S points at IA 15c, and July had
lost $50 points at 14.50c. The close was
from S. to 10 points higher than the
! lowest levels of the day.

OFFICIALS UNEASY
ABOUT OLDER GUNS.
Are Greatly Concerned by the Acct
dents Aboard the Iowa.

Washington, Feb. Immediately
on receipt of news of the accident to
the Iowa, Secretary Moody sent dis
patch calling for full details and or
dering the Iowa to proceed at once to
New York for examination and re-
pairs.
This second explosion on the Iowa
within less than a year has cast
gloom over the officials of the Navy
Department. The cause of the explo-
sion off Pensacola last year, in which
there was a loss of life and consid-
cradle damage to the ship, remains
mystery. The alarming feature of
these two accidents is the apprehension
growing in naval circles that the older
guns of the navy are not strong enough
to permit the use of smokeless powder
in them. 1t is declared that none of
the guns on the Iowa had been fired
much over a hundred times, and the
officials discredit the theory that the
life of any of that vessels guns has
been exhausted.
1t was said to-day that the Iowa
had recently been supplied with new
allotment of powder which had been
thoroughly tested.

SENATOR HANNA HAS
IRREGULAR TYPHOID.
His Physicians Hope to Remove Him
to ThOmasviIIe.


to ThOmasviIIe.
Washington, Feb. 5.-Senator Han
mas illness is officially pronounced by
his physicians to be irregular typhoid,
that is, typhoid fever, with the fever
symptoms less regular, and marked
than in the pronounced types of the
disease.
1t is stated that there are no or
ganic complications to add to the Sc
robustness of the case, but the Sena-
tor at the time of the attack was in
a literally WORKOUT condition, so that
his extreme physical weakness and
nervous depression, coupled with his
age, &c years, and frequent recent rheu-
matte attacks, make the case one
of much more gravity than an or
binary attack of typhoid of a compare
lively mild character. The crisis of
the fever is not expected before the
middle of next week.
The physicians tonight expressed
confidence in the Senator's recovery,
but admitted that recovery will be
matter of weeks and will require, mean
while, the most careful and pains TAX
ing nursing.
President Roosevelt called at the Ar
lington Hotel, during the day to in
quire about Senator Hanna's condition.
He saw Mr.. Dover, with whom he con-
versed for ten minutes about the sick
man.
1t is hoped to bring about a sufficient
improvement in Senator Hanna's con-
dition to permit his removal to Thorn
asville, Ga, where his brother is stay
ing.
Five physicians were in attendance
to-day, DR.. Rixey, DR.. Magruder, DR..
Brewer from New York, DR.. Behrond,
an expert, who examined the Senator's
blood for typhoid indications, and DR..
Osler, an expert diagnostician from
Baltimore. To-nights bulletin, says:

MAY SOON VOTE UPON
THE PANAMA TREATY

Washington, Feb. 5.-Senator Gull
lom, in executive session of the Sem
ate to-day, again urged the Democrats
to permit the Panama canal treaty to
come to a vote at an early date. This,
in effect, was agreed to by the Demo-
Gratis, but they would not bind them
selves to any date.
Senator Cullom asked that time
be fixed within the next two weeks
and argued that there was nothing to
be gained by delay, as it was evident
there was little more to be said on
either side for or against the treaty.
Few senators now want to be heard
and all thought that within a week or
ten days a vote may be reached with
out the formality of binding the Sem
ate to any specific date.

Fire to House-Crovvd Went to the
Rescue.
Columbus. Ca, Feb. 5.-After bur-
glarizing the home of Sam Waller, Just
west of Phoenix City early tonight,
robbers fired at Mr.. Waller and mem
bers of his family, and then set fire to
his house. The kitchen and cooks
house were burned, but the main dwell
ing was saved
Mr.. Waller and wife and Mrs. Nc
Croan of Columbus had just finished
eating supper in the kitchen, which
was in "A small building detached from
the house, and Mr.. Waller started into
the residence. He noticed that the fur
niture was topsy-turvy, and thought
that burglars had been in the house
while they were at supper.
AS he was making his way through
the house the burglars, who had just
left the dwelling, began shooting at him
through the windows. quite a number
of shots being fired. but none striking
him.
Waller at once started to town, near
ly a mile away, for help, and when
about half way. looked back and saw
from the glare that the robbers had
fired the house. Reaching Phoenix
City he made an appeal for help, and
large crowd went out to the scene
bloodhounds being carried to track the
burglars.
1t developed that after shooting at
Waller the burglars fired several times
at the ladies in the kitchen, although
without effect. One shot shattered the
spectacles worn by Mrs. Waller, al
though without injury to the eyes.
The burglars fred the kitchen by
throwing a lamp on the floor, the lamp
exploding. Mrs. McCroan and negro
servant girl sprang through the win
dows, the servant SCATTERING the glass
as she went.
The crowd from town arrived in time
to save the main dwelling from de-
struction.
1t could not be told whether the bur-
glars were white or black. Investiga-
tion showed that they had stolen a lot
of silverware and watch from the
house, while the family was at supper.
The arrest of a Columbus negro, who
has been working ON the Waller place,
has been requested by the Alabama Of
ficers.

DODGE WANTS TO ENJ0IN
GOVERNOR LANHAM,

Houston, Tex, Feb. 5.-Arguments
in the application of Charles F. Dodge
for a write of permanent injunction
against Gov. Lanham of Texas to pre-
vent his ebxtradition to New York on
a charge of perjury were not COM
pleted to-day in the federal court be-
fore Judge Burns and the hearing was
continued until tomorrow.
The only oral evidence submitted
was that of Dr. S. G. Red, who stated
that he had examined Dodge and
found evidence of subacute bronchitis
and rheumatism. 1t was his opinion
that the exposure of the prisoner to
violent changes of temperature might
serve to aggravate his present affiic-
ton.
