BETTER MOVEMENT
OF Stocks Yesterday as Result of Gov
ering Movements BY Bears
Closing Was Feverish.

| New York, July 12.-rhe only buy
ing in evidence on the stock marke
today was the occasional COVERING
| movement by successful bear traders
| who We're satisfied to take inviting
profits on the decline in that way
The volume of dealing had risen by
noon to nearly the figure for the days
total of the day before. The quick
effect Of the revived activity in for.
eign prices is an evidence of the
prevailing disposition to sell on the
part of those who make their appear
ance in the market at all. The vo-
lent decline in the London price of
copper and the response in New York
and the further falling off in June
production of iron as reported by n
leading authority were the causes of
weakness in market AS matter OF
fact the movement of the market was
tarceable largely to technical condi-
tions. Decreasing demand for stocks
on the recent rally served as a warn
ing that no substantial buying was
coming in al the prevailing level of
prices Yesterdays late reaction
brought prices near the low level of
the movement touched last week. To
day those prices were broken through
in a large number of stocks, although
some of the principal market leaders
are exceptions. The effect was TO en-
croach on margins and uncover stop
loss orders which escaped at the pre-
vious decline.
The money market was tranquil
and the presence of the secretary
trtasury in the city was the occasion
for the impression that the proceeds
of the bankers subscription to the
Panama canal bonds will
be left on deposit with the banks and
thus guard against any upset of the
money market as a consequence of
he subscriptions in connection with
he current withdrawal of $4,000 900,
government deposits. The intimida-
ion of the purchase by the govern
ment of silver bullion for mntage
we're calculated to suggest a meas of
release of government funds to the
market Three suggestions of clear
Ing condition in the money situation
were given some credit for late recov-
cry from extreme declines. Although
taking of the days profits on the short
side played an important part. The
closing was rather feverish but with |
most of the rally held.

A SPECTACULAR FIRE
 STARTLED NEW YORK
The Metropolitan Railway Suffered
 gO the Extent of $2GO,OOO.

New York, March 4.-The Forty politan Street railway were destroyed by fire tonight. One man, said to have been an employe of the company lost ris life and several persons were in jured, a fireman seriously. Between thirty and forty cars were destroyed. The total damage is estimated at more than $2OO,0OO.
 The fire was an exceptionally spec taCular one and at it's height the flames leaped several hundred feet in- to the air. Several immense gas tanks of the Consolidated Gas company, To- Cated directly across the street, were seriously threatened by fire and the report that they were about to explode sent several thousand spectators in a wild flight for safety. In the rush sev- oTal persons were hurt. The uptown ferry station of the West Shore rail- road at the foot of Forty-second street was also threatened.
 Later when the fire in the car barns was practically under control a party of train passengers. being escorted from the ferry station by 9 squad of policemen. narrowly escaped injury from flying bricks when one long wall of the burned structure gave way and came down with a crash. The fire originated in one of tHe cars which had been run into the barn for storage during the night. It is supposed to have started from a short circuit.

WILD STORIES
 OF CONFESSIONS
A Report That Another Federatian n
 Man Has Made One.

Boise, Idaho. Mar. 4.-There ha6 been rumor that Jack Simpkins has been arrested, it being added that he had confessed and sent word 10 Adams tO do likewise. The improbability of such a story and an explicit denial by the authorities indicate that it is without foundation.
 Nothing whatever has been learned respecting the confession said to have been made by Adams to Detective Nc Parland beyond the general statement made in these dispatches on Friday night The authorities refuse abso- lutely to make public any of the de- tails.
 Adams was in the Cripple Creek re gioH -of Colorado during the labor -trou- blcs there and was arrested in con nectiOn with an attempt to wreck a train. He was also arrested in con- nection with the explosion in the Vim dicator shaft.

A DAY OF FUNERALS
 AT MERIDiAN, MISS.
The Clearing up Ofthe Track of the
 Hurricane.

Meridian, Miss. March 4-Before an army of determined men attacking Meridian's storm-swept and debris strewn streets the vast amount of wreckage is giving way slowly but surely. The Sabbath following the dis astrcus storm of Friday was a day of funerals. Merchants and residents of Meridian had never protected them selves with storm or cyclone insur- ance, so insurance agents will have little or no auditing beyond fire losses.
 A million and a quarter dollars is now thought to be a conservative es- innate of the damage wrought. After leaving Meridian and entering Macon, a suburban town five miles distant. all trace Of the storm seems to have dis appeared. Little. if any damage is re- ported from the country
 The revised list of dead and injured as a result Of the tornado shows to- tai of 2i dead and 40 injured, a mum Der of whom are not expected to live. No additional deaths have been re- ported since last night. The property loss is estimated at one and a quarter million dollars and the number of de- strOyed residences alone being placed at COG. practically all in the Lindsey Hill section of the east end and Georgetown, of the sufferers from the tornado, only five carried tornado insurance amounting to $67,OOO.
 Seven companies of the state militia are still on guard and enforcing work by negroes, 100 being at work today removing debris An order was issued tonight ordering Vhe removal of the troops on Tuesday. Work of relief was continued all day and hundreds of me chanics will begin the work of re- building tomorrow
 Reports received from Mason, Ma rion, and Meehan Junction, all of which were reported destroyed, stated that there were no fatalities at these places. Meehan Junction escaped en- tirely. The general relief committee today decided to accept volunteer con- tributions from other points, but states positively that Meridian was not seek ing outside aid.

Opponents of the Bill Say the Fight Will
 End Next Friday
The Friends of the Measure, the Other Hand Declare That the House Will Not Take Favorable Action on the Foraker Amendment.

Washington, Mar. 1.-The United States senate will devote most if nos all the week to the consideration of the statehood bill with a view of reach ing a vote on it next Friday in accord ance with an agreement arrived at last week. There is a possibility that Sen ator Culberson may speak tomorrow on the rate question, but if he does this will be the only interruption of the consideration of the biiI for the crea- tiOn Of new states. r the Texas sena- tor does net speak. either Senator Nel- son or Senator Long will take the floor in support of the statehood bill. If they do not get an opportunity to speak today they will find that opportunity on Tuesday, and from that time for ward it is expected that the subject will be pressed until the day set foc voting to begin, which is Friday at ?. m. Senator Patterson probably will close the debate for the opposition and Senator Beveridge for the bill.
 These will not be set speeches in the usual meaning of that word, but they are sure to provoke so much discussion as to cause the controversy to take on the character of a general debate.
 Practically all interest in the biu centers in the FOraker amendment, and every possible effort on both sides is being made for and against that pro vision. Even the frielid1 of the union of Arizona and New Mexico admit that the vote will be close. but the opponents of that policy appear more confident of success. Both sides profess tD have the joint bill tl.at, tFe Foraker amend ment incorDoratcd in tSo measure. ft will be allowed to die, and it's oppo- nents insisting that with the addition made. the house will be so eager to att cept 1t that they will not even aIlO 2 the bill to go 10 conference.
 The fact that the railroad rate que:;- ton will not occupy the floor will n.H be permitted to interfere with activity on account os f..
 The bill is still receiving more atteu- ton from Individual senators than any other measure. not excepting statehood and it will remain in the foreground until it is finally disposed of, regard less of it's place on the calendar.
 The especial question under consid . eratiOn now Is whether the proposed compromise amendments shah be ac- cepted The bill will be made unfin ished business as soon as a vote is taken on the statehood bill.

THE HOUSE.

Washington, Mar 4.-iUr the first time during the present congress the national house Of representatives IS short of work. There is nothing | sight for the present week but the In dian appropriation bill, and although not regarded as necessary, the consid- eration of the bill is to be allowed to consume Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
 Bills on the calendar will be consid- cred today under suspension of the rules, and Friday will be devoted to the passage of private pension bills. An adjournment will then be taken un- til tEe following Monday.
 The provisions of the Indian bill which provoke discussion include the proposition to make expenditures for irrigation in several Indian reserva- tions. 10 investigate the feasibility of establishing reform schools for Indian children in connection with one of the institutions of learning maintained for Indian children, and also to establish a sanitarium for the treatment of In dians afflicted with tuberculosis. Add ed vigilance is to be exercised to sup press the Iicuor traffic among In dians and s1COOOO additional is carried in the bill for this purpose. The bill carries a total appropriation of $7.7S5 52S.
 Under suspension of the rules tomor- row it is not unlikely that an effort will be made to get consideration of the bill abohshing the grade of lieu teTant general in the army. This bill has been introduced and favorably re- ported from the military committee since provision to the same end ln the army appropriation bin failed of legislation. The Dill as reported goes into effect on its passase and cousc- quently makes no provision for tho promotion to that rcnk of Generals COrbin and MacArthur.
