ALEXANDRIA, Va. March ., 1905.
The question of transportation accommo-
dations for the large numbers of people
who will be travelling between Alexandria
and Washington the day of the Inaugural
ton has caused some apprehension here,
especially in view of the Gripping of the
Washington, Alexandria and Mount Yer
non line by the loss of two motors and two
trailers in the collision at Spring Park last
light Today Mr.. E. c. Joyce, local agent
of the Washington Southern railroad, stated
that his company would operate two extra
trains from Alexandria to Washington Sat-
urday morning and would attach extra
coaches to the regular north-bound train
leaving here at Sol a. M. The specials will
leave at o and 10, respectively. Passen-
gers viii, be landed at 9th street and Mary
land avenue southwest. Special arrange
ments will be made in the evening for the
accommodation of passengers returning to
this city.

The southbound train was a regular
scheduled train from Washington, leaving
for this city at sos pm. 1t was in charge
of Conductor A. A. Davis, with Motorman
John Sutton in the cab The northbound
train was running on special time. 1t was
in charge of Conductor John kerrick, with
Motorman Harry Hudson in the cab. The
train left the Washington street station
at 6:25 pm, taking on board passengers
who were waiting for. the train scheduled
at $50. A peculiar fact, which was no
ticed and commented upon by some of the
passengers was that no stop was made at
the Payne street station, although several
persons were waiting there to go to Wash
ington. The train continued north, devei-
oping considerable speed outside of the
city until it was running rapidly when the
collision occurred.
Question Of Responsibility.
Where the responsibility for the wreck
lies is undetermined, SO far as any official
statement is concerned, but from the cir
cumstances it is understood that the north
bound train should have remained at Payne
street instead of proceeding. 1t is stated
that Captain Davis train left Washington
on schedule time and was running on time
when the collision occurred.
Numerous statements concerning the ac-
cident were made today by passengers who
were in the wreck. The crash was de-
scribed as being amazingly sudden and
terrific. AS one passenger said, there was
binding flash. a frightful shock and a
loud grinding, crashing sound, while tim
bers, seats. doors and floors were thrown
about in every direction.
Police Justice Harry B. Cation and Attor-.
ney Edmund Burke were seated in the
trailer of the northbound train three seats
from the door. When the shock occurred
Mr. Burke was thrown into the air and
hurled forward, while Mr.. Cation was
damned between two seats. The stores in
the baggage apartment were thrown into

New York, Feb. 17-Prices the Stock Ex-
change have been well sustained this week on a
somewhat diminished demand, of a "spotty''
character. Industrials and low priced railroads
have been the favorites, but have supported the
general list by sympathy. The drop in foreign
exchange and the passing OF the French demand
for American gold have helped the market.
Peace rumors abroad also resulted in some for
e1gn demand in this market for stocks. Re-
stra1ning factors have been the export grain
war, the obstruction to railroad traffic by storms
and discussion of legislation for government con-
troll Of railroad rates.
The opening stock market today was largely
one or spec1alties and the trading was rather
quiet. The United States Rubber stocks ad-
vanced point and Lead Smelling and Metropol-
itan Street Railway large fraction. There was
an active demand for Chicago Great Western on

sold at 1261s and 1868 compared with 1853 last
night. Consolidated Gas opened down q point.
Market movements were of fixed character,
allied stocks moving contrarywise For exam
pie, Reading and Norfolk & Western became
heavy, while Pennsylvania and other stocks under
Its control advanced. In the industrial quar- ter,
metal stocks general rose, but United States
Steel fell back. The principal feature of the
trading was the sustained advance in Union Pa
cifc, which touched 1868, coincident with rise
IN Northern Securities on the curb. Southern Pa
c1fc improved to 6S, sympathetically, and Union
Pacific preferred rose TX. st. Paul also showed
strength. Stocks Of southern and southwestern
railroads were mostly under pressure, including
Illinois Central Louisville & Nashville Southern

MINNEAPOLIS Chamber Of Commerce, Feb. IS
Wheat failed again to do anything remarkable
despite the corner now reported to be on In
Chicago. Indeed the price fell a little, and
May was Sligo at the close. The widest
of reports are coming along now regularly. Ar
mour is in the deal in story, and Is fighting
1t in another. All these reports emanate from
Chicago. They add to the general confusion OF
mind Of the ordinary trader and make for eau
tiousness and hesitation. Ordinarily 1t might
be supposed that talk Of corner would be the
thing to boom the trade in futures. but In prac-
tice 1t does not always work out that way, and
it is probable that with Gates and his follow
ing out Of it the pit would be livelier than 1t
Is. big futures market like Minneapolis
must depend very largely upon the small-lot
trade to keep things moving. Better by far a
hundred widely distributed trades and counter
trades Of ten May each than the same in volume
in trades of l, 900, 900 bu in ten 10O-lot trades
between two interests Better by far a normal
market In which snlall-lOt trader, even tho
he may know little about it and may get wrong,
as he often does, may at least have the satlsr
faction of figuring it out for himself, with the
accompanying feeling that, right or wrong he is
using his best judgment in market uncertain
always, but fair for him for anyone.
Today the small-lot fellow cannot do it, for
he feels that he is at a disadvantage against
the big who might swing jag Of wheat
upon the market at any time that would bury
him bursting elevator bin would bury a
mouse. OF the big men may put 1t
away up. and he might go along with them, but.
on the whole, 1t does not appeal to the average
trader who still retains anything of conserva-
tism. and SO 1t is bad for business in the pit.

Macaroni Durum Seed Wheat for Sale.
!, 81

Macaroni wheat in the rust affected
districts Of the Dakotas and Minnesota.
in season Of 1904, yielded ten to thirty
bushels per acre with test weight Of
81 to 60 pounds per measured bushel.
While ordinary spring wheat in tho
same localities produced four to ten
bushels per acre with test of 40 to IS,
pounds. ri ,>.-s
It was demonstrated plainly that ma.
caroni will withstand the ravages of
rust, and 1t is also well known that it
will produce full crop with less rain
fall than other wheat. Macaroni is
being successfully milled, and the
market is steadily broadening.
