TESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET.
DemOraIiEed Weakness Turned Into Quite an Exuberant Show of Strength

DemOraIized Weakness Turned Into Quite an Exubernnt Show of Strength
 New York, May 1.-To-day's stock market strikingly demonstrated how financial affairs adjust themselves to any contingency that is foreseen with sufficient clearness. The precipitate fall in prices on Saturday caused gen. eral fear. The event of to-day proves that the precautionary measures which resulted were so effective as to turn the demoralized weakness into quite exuberant show of strength. An im- portant part was unconsciously played by the speculative element itself and was in the form of sales for the short account, which were put out during Saturday in almost unlimited amounts. The volume of outstanding short con- tracts proved so excessive that the ex- pected offerings to-day failed to pro- vide material for this potential demand and before the day closed the shorts were scrambling to secure supplies to make good their contracts. There can be no doubt that a very large part of the buying to-day was as measure of protection by financial interests power ful enough to take these steps to save themselves and their associates from the serious effects threatened by the plunge in prices and the rapid shrink age in valuations forming the basis for huge credits.
 The support in the market to-day was not made effective without sharp struggle, which at one time caused a threatening setback after the first rally. A great many calls went out to custom CTS from commission houses on Satur- i day night for additional margins, and return orders to sell out or failures to respond to calls for additions induced very large pressure to sell when the market opened. London was taking a holiday, but notwithstanding this a notable feature of the early trading was the heavy demand for foreign account here which was said to come from va rious quarters in Europe. None of the whispers of money troubles which cir ,culated freely on Saturday was con- firned by events to-day and this had a substantial influence in convincink many sellers of Saturday that they had been precipitate.
 After the urgent demand from the shorts had been satisfied the market became, much quieter and showed a disposition to await developments. Re- ports of net earnings of railroads for
 March showed some important in. ,creases, such as for Union Pacific 2f
 per cent, St. Paul F per cent, Illinois Central 16 per cent. and Colorado and
 Southern no less than 1fS per cent. Tn,
 March figures of traffic of some of thu great systems are reported to- have reached record figures for any month
 While there is some question whether
 the events which have shaken specula.
 tive confidence in Wall street have left the full confidence of the business world at large tinimpaired, to-day's sharp re- covery was well maintained and the closing was steady near the best. s. I Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value, $3,690, ,0o0.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call. .9

HoCH AND FTRECRACKERs.
Governor Does Not Care to, Enter
Into a Competition.

Governor E. ". Hoch is receiving
dozens of invitations from people who
want him for the Fourth of July
speech. He is wanted at Ottawa for
the Chautauqua, and he IS also wanted
at his home town. Marion. But Gov
ernor I1och disIkes Fourth of July
speeches. He says:
Il had rather speak on any other
day of the year than the Fourth of
July. They get you down on the. pro-
eramme simply as one of the attrac-
tons to help draw the crowd, and
when they once have you they are not

your speech. You are obliged to talk

make my speech Just at noon1 Wnen
everybody was anxious 20 ear 9iilIler
and the chief hope of the audience
seemed to be that 1 would get done
as quickly as possible. 1 would very
much prefer to stay at home this
Fourth of July. but haven't decided
yet what I will do"
speeches cost s25 apiece, and people
who think of inviting the Topeka
editor and humorist to preside over
their Independence day festlVltles
should bear this fact in mind
Some years ago Mr.. MceNal decided
that if he was to be used as the means
for drawing a crowd for somebody to
make money out of, he should have
his share of the rakeoff. Consequent
IL he fixed SIS as his price.
A few days ago Mr.. McNeal had one
of the usual letters inviting him to
make a Fourth of July speech. His
reply to the letter was something as
follows
my price for a Fourth of July
speech is s25, and I would advise you
not to take it, because it is not worth
/ that amount You can get plenty OF
good sneakers who will address you
/ free of charge, but I have come to the
conclusion that if I go away from
home on the Fourth it is worth S25
and expenses to me as q nerve racking
! experience. This is a purely COM
mercfal proposition, and I assure you
/ that the speech can deliver is not
worth s25."

DAVIS HAS IDEA.
Would Move Water Plant to
Harrison Street.
Too Expensive at Its Present
Location.
THE WATER is PURE.
Says That at Lower Station Is
All Right.
Would Combine 1t With City
Electric Plant.

To tear down the new water works
plant west of the city and combine it
with the Harrison pumping plant, the
old station, is one of the suggestions
which Mayor W. H. Davis has to offer
with reference to municipal ownership
of the water works. The suggestion is
based on the idea of economizing the
number Of employees, the doing away
with the long line of main nom the
outskirts of the city to the heart and the
concentration Of the city electric light
and water works plants under one roof.
At the present time the city is employ
ing two shifts Of engineers and hremen
at each plant the one west of the city
and the Harrison street station. The
latter station IS utilized in order to fur
nlsh additional pressure for fire pur-
poses.
Mayor Davis said, Il don't see what
made the company erect that plant
away out Of the city limits. It looks
very foolish to me The water is en-
tirely pure at the wells on Harrison
street. An examination was made of
the water recently and it is entirely
pure, every bit as pure as the water
from the upper plant. I think that the
city would find it profitable to do away
with that plant up the river and con
Centrate it with the Harrison street sta
ton. The Harrison street station could
be raised several feet to keep it free
from high water effects and enlarged to
take care of both the electric light plant
and the water works. The city could
cut down on the number of its employees
and save enough to make Up the cost
of concentrating those plants. The
water works system. too, I understand
IS built with the idea that the Har-
rison street station should be the head
and source of water supply for the city
ar7TrniT1f think
be wiser to concentrate the plants"
Councilman Green rather fancies the
idea and said that he considered that
the Harrison street station was the
