Nothing was known about the brU-

OLD-FASHIONED BOON
ON RAILWAY COMMON
Prices Go Soaring on Rapid Buying by
Broker Who Apparently Had
an Unlimited Order.

The local market was treated to the
long expected surprise at the session
OF the stock exchange today when the
buying Of the common stock of the
Washington Railway Company was pro-
ceeded with on a scale TO which the ex-
change has long been a stranger. For
several days there has been repeated an
offer to pay $40 for 5000 shares. but the
buying from that source had not as
sumed tangible shape, and IL has been
treated with rather a belief In it's lack
Of geuuineness and desire to show an
appearance Of strength more than a dis
position to really secure the stock. 1t
was therefore a surprise to the board
when the buying of the stock today was
proceeded with in a rapid and confident
manner and the price lifted from 405s to
iS. the latter being paid for options with
total Of 1850 shares on the regular
call, nearly all OF which was taken by
one buyer. Offers to pay y and 43 for
options on 1.ouo-share lots were several
times made. when the cash price was
somewhat removed from those figures
No intimatiOn of the action had been
given when the preferred was called.
although a very slight fractional i'm
proVement was enacted in the sales
made and promise made that later
there would be an opportunity To buy
at even lower prices ana on the 'aIIeT
caI' 400 shares of the preferred weFe
sold at SSA. making over COO shares for
the day in that class.
There was also a disposition to do
business in Telephone stock and several
lots aggregating 100 shares were rapidly
taken at eZl4 and 62l2 which seemed to
represent about all the floating stock
pressing for sale.
Greene Copper was also somewhat
better, sales Of 800 shares at 27l4 mark
ing stout fractional rise over sales
Of Wednesday
Three lots Of five shares each Of
Washington Loan and Trust found
resting place at 2l9 and when the seller
was inclined TO divide his sales up into
small lots received an offer OF 219 for as
much as he had to sell and no limit
placed on the amount that would be
taken
The balance Of the list was secondary
TO the unexpected move on the common
stocks and all the interest Centered on
what further action might develop in
the after call but the q bsenCe of cheap
stock prevented further demonstration.

Victims Remain Silent.

The four victims are Murray Robin
son, Edward Jones, Charles Fisher. and
William Marsh. All attempts have been
in vain to induce the youths TO reveal
the names Of those who tortured them.
1t is expected. however. that the
guilty students will be uncovered inside
twenty-four hours Already most Of the
details of the hazing have leaked out.
The four youths were seized and blind
folded when leaving a class room for
their rooms. They were dragged 20 the
mechanical department. and there gag
ged and bound hand and foot. Wires
were attached TO all parts Of their
bodies and the current turned on. The
victims were held erect by several haz-
ers wearing rubber gloves The youths
were subjected to the current until one
OF them sank 10 the floor. When the cur
rent finally was turned of It was found
all four were unconscious.

INDIANAPOLIS Feb 23-Four stud

are in a serious condition in the school
hospital as the result of being hazed by
electricity by members Of the senior
class.
That the four youths escaped instant
death by a hairs breadth is the opinion
Of Director Smith OF the institute. who
said that all the currents IN the labora-
tory, where the students were tortured,
were SO powerful that any one Of them
might prove fatal
The director said that grave after
effects almost certainly would come
from the use OF the currents, and this
has increased the anxiety over the con-

TO PURCHASE BACH
HOUSE IN EISENACH.

London, March 2S.-With a view of
purchasing the house in Eisenach,
where Johnann Sebastian Bach, -
great German composer was born, the
German Bach society some time ago
appealed for sum of $500. At the
end of last year one half of that sum
was collected and the first instalment
of the purchase money was paid. The
second instalment must be paid by
the end of April, and, with view TO
obtaining a handsome contribution
from London musicians. the directors
of the Queens hall orchestra propose
to hold concert at Asolian hall on
May l, the cost of the tickets to be
one guinea each. The orchestra will,
as far as possible. be on the scale
usual in Bach's own time, and the
program will consist entirely of Bach's
compositions, including the humorous
cantata "PhOebus and Pan" and the
chaconne from the second partita in
ID minor, which will be played by Mrs.
Edgar Speyer, the wife of the chair
man of the orchestra company

PRESBYTERY STILL
IN SESSION HERE

There were three sessions of the
Rio Grande Presbytery held yester-
day and a similar number today. 1t
is expected that the meeting will ad-
journ at the close of this evenings
session, so as to permit the delegates
who are becoming anxious 20 return
TO their fields, to depart upon the
night trains. So far, the work placed
upon the delegates has been heavy,
with but a minimum of time for rec
reatiOn.
At the forenoon session Mr.. }. Bar
ros and Mr.. S. S. Van Wagner were
examined for licensure. These two
candidates and also Mr.. w. II. Du
Bose will be licensed at this evenings
service.
j. L. Gutierrez, A. Soto, C. Salas and
n. Gurule, were examined and taken
under the care of the Presbytery as
candidates for the gospel ministry.
Most of the fields of the Presby-
terry have been provided for during
the coming year.
The Rev. Frazier has announced his
intention of resigning the pastorate
Of Socorro church, which has not yet
selected his successor. The vacancy
in Deming church occasioned by the
removal of the Rev. Theo. Hopping
to California, is to be filled by Mr.. w.
II. Du Bose, who has been supplying
the Albuquerque church during Mr..
Coopers absence in the east.
The next meeting of the Presbytery
OF Rio Grande will, it is understood,
be held in Deming.

the mills could be developed to a point
where they would be furnishing en-
plOyment to at least 5000 people.
Mr.. Bearrup brings forth many con
vincing arguments TO support his the
ory and claims, and the Commercial
club has entered into the matter with
much zest, and conferences between
the directors of the club and commit
tees from the different labor organiza-
tions will continue until a definite ar
rangement has been consummated.
One point made manifest in the CO.
operative plan is the fact that stock
holders in the concern enjoy the priv
ilege of getting all necessary wooden
goods, such as blankets, hosiery, un-
der garments, clothing, etc, at prac-
tically cost of construction, or about
80 per cent less than The same goods
would cost in a retail store.
This, to the working man, in a coun-
try where clothing and like commodi-
ties are put at a rather high figure,
is in itself a strong argument for the
purchasing of stock in tAe co-opera.
