SPEYER AND TWEED
QUIT SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Wall Street Startled by Withdrawal.
Points TO Bitter Railroad War
Later On.

NEW YORK. April 5.-Surprise was
expressed in Wall Street yesterday at
the relir 1ment of James Speyer and
Charles II. Tweed. of the firm of Spey
er & Co, from the directorate of the
Southern Pacific at the annual meeting
of stockholders in Louisville. Follow
ing so closely upon the announcement
CT the decision of the f1rm OF Kuhn.
Loeb & Co. on February 20 OF this year,
20 retire as members OF the various rail-
road boards on which the lndlVldual
members Of the firm were directors, the
Withdrawal of MeSsrs. Speyer and
Tweed from the Southern Pacific oc-
casioned a good deal of comment in the
financial district. where the inference
cided to pursue a course similar TO that
adopted by Kuhn. Loeb * Co. in giving
Up their directorships on railroads
At the office of Speyer e. Co. IL was
stated that the retirement OF the two
members of the firm from the Southern
nificance, and that II oiSs not forcshadow
the designations OF members of the firm
from the boards Of other corporations
with which they might be connected
There was a disposition in some quar-
ters to attribute the retirement of the
Speyer interests from the Southern Paci-
fic as an indication of a more or less an
tagcnistic spirit toward the Hartman
interests, as an aftermath of the in
surance investigation. II is said that
the Speyer interests are friendly TO the
Fish administration in the Illinois Cen
tral. while II is generally known that
the position of +. H Hartman Is ex-
actly the reverse 1t is predicted that
events are shaping themselves for a bit
ter fight in the railroad world later on,
and the alignment and coalition of
certain important interests are regarded
as significant.

MARKET RULED
BY MONEY RATE
Several Loans Made at Ten
Per Cent.
REcESSI0NS IN SOME STOCKS
Tone Of Exchange, However, Continues
Strong-London Houses
Sell.
REcESsIoNs IN SOME STOCKS

NEW YORK, April 5.-The London
houses were sellers today consistently,
but on a small scale The market this
morning was irregular. rather than re-
dictionary. although large majority OF
stocks receded fractionally on the higher
money rate.
Brokers on the floor on the exchange
said the market was Influenced wholly
at present BY the money situation First
loans this morning were made at 10
per cent. but rumors of a gold en-
gagement, some houses naming 50 200. 900
as tho sum taken. offset this high rate
and caused some Impressive buying. on
which prices OF many stocks made
gains ranging from small fractions to
four points.
OF the market continued strong, even
on this reaction.
Government bonds were unchanged:
other bonds steady
o. m.-The money situation continued
10 absorb attention TO the exclusion Of
AL other financial questions today The
announcement of a reduction in the
Bank OF England rate was the fore
most development of the day
On our market the response was i'm
mediate. sterling exchanging declining
still and negotiations for gold imports
receiving substantial impetus. There
We're rumors that a large engagement
was In prospect and would be made
known before the close of the week
but nothing definite on the matter
meterialized today
Call money loaned again as high as
20 per cent, ana the rate on standing
loans was advanced from 81 10 per
cent. The stock market did not lose its
firm undertone. even in the face of
these discour1ging conditions. But new
buying was held in check and the tend
ency Of prices was in the main lower.
