EQUITABLE REGOYERS
 FROM DEPEW COMPANY
Continued from First Page.)

Continued from First Page) Of the property of S983, ,75O. An apprais- al was at the same time made and submitted to the Equitable by William B. Cutter. one of the leading real es- tate men of Buffalo, in which he ap- praised the value of the lots loaned on at $76S, ,0OO.
 ''In 1901 a real estate depression at Buffalo lowered values and checked the growth in the town of DeDew. It was at this time, October :, 1901. and not when the loan was made, in Jan uary, 1898. that the insurance depart ment appraised the part of the property covered by the Equitable's mortgage at $15O,OOO"
 MT. Depew then recites the charges that have been made against him, de- nying each. Of the charges which re- lated to transactions resulting from the default of the company and the fore closure of the loan by the Equitable, he says that as a result of the com pany's embarrassment a re-organiza- tion was determined upon, and though there were unavoidable delays, the plan was progressing as rapidly as possible. The company was to be incorporated and was to issue bonds for S750,0OO to supply funds to take u9 the Equitable mortgage. principal and interest, and to pay the other debts of the company. There was never any other purpose than that the Equitable should be fully protected. The foregoing communications were acknowledged in the following letter: August 31, 1905. I My dear Senator: am ver:r much pleased to receive your letter and the communication of the reorganization committee of the Depew Improvement company. which disposes of the matter in manner en-
 tirely satisfactory to the Equitable. An impression of the situation which was erroneous, and unjust to you, has pre- 1 vailed. I think that it can best be re- moved by making these two communi- , cations public. and will do so if this i action will be agreeable to you. Yours very truly, ...s. Paul Morton.
 Hon. Chauncey NJ. Depew, New York City.

STOCK MARKET FEATURES

 The liquidation in stocks was accom- panied by similar closing out of long accounts in cotton, many persons being equally interested in both. Margins be- coming exhausted, they had to dispose of their holdings of both.

 The Boston operator, or oracle, was credited with having much more to do with the decline in stocks than well in- formed people think should be attribut- ed Sto him.

 We'll informed bankers, it is said when asked for their opinion of the market and the cause for the selling, said that it was of no particular signifi- canoe and was merely 8 natural reac- ti3n: that prices would all recover after the holiday. They attempt, they said, in certain quarters to attribute the sell ing to a scare because of the fear of a squeeze ill money was absurd, and not true. The usual September Labor day holiday is at hand, they said, and a little reaction and rest until the market has adjusted itself to the changed for eign conditions is an excellent thing.

Thousands of American women, how ever, have foundrelief from all monthly suffering by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it is the most thorough female regulator known to medical science. It cures the condition which causes so much discomfort and robs menstruation of its terrors.
 Miss Irene Crosby, of s13 Charlton Street East Savannah, Ga, writes:
 Lydia B. Pinkhan's Vegetable Compound is true friend to woman. It has been of great benefit to me, curing me of irregular and painful nenstruation when everything else had failed, and gladly recommend it to other suffering women"
 Women who are troubled with pain full or irregular menstruation, back ache, bloating tor hatulencel leucor- rhoea, falling, inflammation or ulcera- tion of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that " bearing-down feeling, dizzi- ness. faintness, indigestion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the seri- ous consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkhann'ss Vegetable Conn pound, and then write to Mrs. Pink ham, Lynn, Mass, for further free ad- vice. Thousands have been cured by % doing. .

nerve center. Comments all laddatory of the music of the production were heard everywhere and an evidence Of the pleasure was the fact that eighteen ncors were dmanded in the first act Ialone. Each number is of such excel lence that specializing would be un- just. They must be treated as whole The story is one which affords an ex- cellent vehicle to introduce the popular DeWolf Hopper, in the chief role, and give him an opportunity eminently suited to his capabilities. He'll was ex- tremely funny as ''Ecstaticus, King Of Elysia." His interpolated songs were decidedly original, and his comic duet with "Altimus, King of Altruria.' was simply immense, and productive of great merriment. Mir. Hopper was call ed before the curtain at the close of the first act and thanked all for their gen. erous attention and evidence of appre-
 citation.
 Dainty Marguerite Clarke has the opportunity of her life. She is cast as
 Sylvia, daughter of the King of Ec- staticus, and is kept up to her. eigh- teenth birthday in total ignorance of
 the outside world and it's peoples. The
 sudden contact with men and women is
 so marvellous as to almost stupify her, and her simple childish nature wins
 admiration at once. Miss Clark handles the character remarkably well and
 should score an immense hit wherever i 'Happyland" is presented.
 l While the entire company is excep-
 tionally strong fro mthe singing stand
 point. yet special mention of Joseph
 Phillis. John Dunsmier, Carl Haydn
 Estelle Wentworth, and Bertha Shalek
 is deserving. MT. Dunsmueir, splen- did baritone, and Miss Wentworth, so- 1 prano, and Miss Shalek, alto, were ex-
 ceptionally good, We shall expect to
 hear great things of this trio in the
 future. F*

Superb Cornlc opera Inlt1ally Presented at Hyperion.
 "Happyland," a comic opera in two acts, the latest exploitation of Reginald deKoven and Frederic Rankin, in CO., laboration was given it's initial presen- tation at the Hyperion last night. The audience which almost tested the ca pacity of. the immense auditorium, and comprised principally of first night ers," whose opinions are courted by aspiring managers, received the offering with an enthusiasm which must have been gratifying to those responsible.
 First of all, the superb music must have place. Reginald deKoven has in the past written so many beautiful things that it wolld seem his supply was exhausted, but this is an erroneous assumption. "Happyland'' teens with sweet melodies, soothing love songs, i'm spring martial airs, dreamy lullabys, and bright, swinging choruses which awaken and set attune every musical
