courts of Allegheny county have been asked
to declare-Wiliiam Thaw a Young nephew
and companion of Harry Kendall Thaw. an

in the case.
Those making the application to have
William Thaw declared unable to manage
his estate are his mother. Elizabeth Dohr-

Collins and her husand. Henry L. Collins
Every possible effort has been made BY
those interested to keep the matter from
the public. but the case became known
today when the eatry was discovered on
the docket. So anxious was Thomas M
Marshall. jr.. counsel for Mrs Elizabeth
Thaw, to keep the matter secret that he
had the case numbered S19is, probably in
order that no interest should be aroused
by the missing of a whole number from
the docket. He then had a space reserved
for the case at some future time and Sc

When Secretary Shaw was asked today
whether he would do anything to relieve
the financial situation he replied that I'M

not rAund. buy bonds. increase deposits
nor do anything else. The treasury. he
says. holds $4,000 600 which can be used

done has been in response to business con-
ditionS. Unless business conditions gen.

of currency from New York to western
points are confident that from this time

who discussed the monetary situa lion some
what in detail yesterday with several promi-

movement alone will furnish substantial re-
lief to monetary conditions to New York.
He believes also that the payments which
will be made by western mercantile houses
during the present month for merchandise
purchased several months ago will also be
a factor in the local money market.
In addition to this. stock market interests
who have generally received direct intima-
tons in advance are confident that Secre-
tary Shaw will naturally furnish relief to
the money market within the next week or
ten days. 1t is understood that a large
commission house, which has always kept
in close touch with Washington believes
that early next week, perhaps Monday,
the Secretary will announce his intention to

NEW YORK. November i0.-Today's
stock market vacillated between the re2os-
nized weak money market situation on the
one hand and the belief on the ether that
the Secretary of the Treasury would soon
announce some further measures looking to
the relief of the monetary situation. Conse-
quently the dealings were in small. volume
and were pr, ductive, generally speaking,
of limited and irregular results. A good deal
of disappointment was manifested previous
to the opening of business at the absence
of any definite intelligence from Washing
ton with regard to Secretary Shaws iuten-
tons. No word being received from that
quarter discussion shifted to the outlook
for the weekly bank statement. which it was
commonly expected would make poor ex-
hibit. some of the forecasts pointing to an
other deficit in reserve.
American stocks were exceptionally heavy
In the London stock market. circumstances
which carried additional weight on account
of the generally depressed state o. st:nti-
ment.
Washington advices to the effect that the
interstate commerce commission contem-
plated a rigid investigation of the affairs OF
the Union Pacific system attracted some at
tention, but the securities more directly
concerned moved in common with the mar
ket at large.
Other relatively active railway stocks
were Reading, Atchison, New York Central
and Northern Pacific. Wide and erratic
fluctuations were again observed in the last
named stock.
Big Deficit Shown.
The local traction stocks. together with
the Industrial and miscellaneous issues.
showed the same general tendencies which
marked the dealings in the railway list.
United States Steel, common. and Amalga-
mated Copper furnished the bulk of the
transactions in their department of the
market.
The loss in actual cash set forth in the
bank statement was far in excess of the
amounting to S.S3oOCO. The loan account
showed on the other hand. the large cur
tailment of 81 800, O0O. the third consecutive
reduction in that item since the advance
In the Bank of Englands discount rate.
The changes in actual cash and in loans
were fairly well reflected in the deposit
account. which was reduced 81, O69.OOO. Sur
plus reserves fell 81, $4,000 and the state
ments sets forth deficit below the law
full reserve figures of $1.o14. 900. In the
corresponding week of last year deficit OF
s. 42S, 900 was shown. In 1904 there was a
surplus of $500, 900. and in 1903 a surplus
of S.. 600.
The market rallied upon the appearance
of the bank statement, but developed re-
newed irregularity when Secretary Shaw's
statement was made public. His denial
that he had in mind any further steps to
relieve the money market was made with
some reservation, but apparently Wall
street" need not expect any early assistance
from treasury operations.
