Further Drastic Liquidation Induced by
 California Disaster.

California Disaster.
 New York, April 19.-There was fur ther drastic liquidation in the stock market to-day, induced by the Califor- mia calamity. At one time early in the day the market looked as though the principal strain upon it had been pass cd and there was substantial recovery from the sharp opening declines. But prices broke badly again later in the day and the market took on a sem blance of demoralization. The early re- covery was partly due to supporting orders which were distributed supposa- bly, by banking interests for the protec- tion of the market, but also to a con- siderable uncovered short requirement. due to the very heavy selling yesterday by professional operators in the belief that additional liquidation would come upon the market to-day with realiZa- tion of the extent of the disaster. This calculation proved to be not mistaken, and the shorts of yesterday had ample opportunity to secure profits with the large accumulation of selling orders this morning.
 With the early unsettlement of the market somewhat quieted and the level of prices restored 1t became clear that there was no effective demand to ex- tend the recovery. The coal strike out look had its part in to-day's weakness, as was shown by the violent decline in Reading. But this stock had been a speculative favorlte and is vulnerable, therefore, to the general influence of the stock to speculative confidence caused by the earthquake losses. The mood of the speculation was exemplified by the sudden drop in Amalgamated Copper on the announcement of the ex- tra dividend disbursement, which in- duced heavy selling to realize. Some disappointment was professed also that the dividend was called extra instead of raising the regular rate.
 The course of the foreign exchange market was followed by a sharp ad- vance in the London discounts, by a higher price for gold in London and by drop in sterling exchange at Paris. The weakening of the Bank of Eng land showed the effect of our heavy gold withdrawal, and the Bank of France also showed a decline in strength on the week.
 The pressure of liquidation grew more urgent and with an appearance of growing necessity as the day pro- gressed, and the closing tone was very weak at about the lowest of the SIsy. The days net losses run from to 8 points in practically all the active stocks and from 3 to over points in the prominent speculative leaders, in- cluding Reading, the Pacific and the metal stocks, except the United States Steel stocks, which showed some power of resistance
 Bonds were weak. Total sales, par value, $1,3S0,OO0.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Dividend Increase.

The stock market yielded consider ably yesterday, owing to the disaster news, and the appalling extent of the calamity.
 Prices broke most violently in the afternoon, when 1t was announced that the city was doomed. Previous to this time there had been considerable weak ness and more evidence of liquidation, growing out of losses in the ravaged city, than had been shown before.
 The disaster in San Francisco means so large a wiping out of capital that the whole country must feel it.
 Throughout the session Reading was one ol the vulnerablefs in the &C., tive list. There was very heavy selling of
 The anxiety over the effect on the money market of the inevitable ship ment of large amount of currency to San Francisco was relieved by the announcement of Secretary Shaw that he had placed $1O, O,OOO,OOO of government money in the sub-treasury for transfer to he doomed city. Previous to this shipment of $S,OOO,OOO had been made,
 The announcement of an increase in the Amalganated Copper dividend of IA per cent, making what the street construed as per cent. rate for the year, was ignored. It had been ex- pected But even If it had not been, it is doubtful If any news of an increased dividend would have helped a stock in the face oi the disaster news.
 The pressure against the stocks of the United Railways Investment com pany of San Francisco was renewed at the opening, when both fell heavily from the previous days closing. The common finally touched 62, drop of over 30 points in the two days.
 The collapse of Reading was popu- larly attributed to fears of an early strike, but there were other reasons for the decline. Certain cliques in various stocks were warned that the situation does not justify carrying of large lines of margined accounts, and that with the demands for capital to replace the terrible damage done at San Francisco Ghe stock market would be probably called on to give up more capital.
 "A direct attempt was made to en- courage bull movement In the Unit ed Steel stocks on the argument that San Francisco will have to be rebuilt, and that the test that some of the steel constructed office buildings made ito the earthquake shocks is the best sort of advertisement to structures of that character.
 The liquidation yesterday proceeded very largely from the issuance com- spanies, and the numerous wealthy New Workers who have immense property interests in San Francisco. With all of them the necessity for converting se- curities into cash was imperative.
 Boston and Montana rate continues at $2. a share regular and $10 per share extra, the same as three months ago. A great many stop loss orders were met. In Reading the loss amounted to 8 points. It was over 4 in St. Poul, ' in Northwestern, in Union Pacific, ? 1-2 in Amalgamated Copper, 2 Is in Southern Pacific and to 15 points in +he Frisco traction shares.

 At the meeting of the board ofspolice commissioners last night the resigna- tion of Dr. W. M, Kenna as police sur geon was read and accepted. pr. Carl w.

 The letter inclosing check for the police mutual aid fund, which was re- ceived recently from Gus Hill, manag- CT of ''McFadden's Flats" company was read Manager Hill sent the check in appreciation of the work done by the department in connection with the disturbance at the New Haven theater during the recent visit of his company here.
 The commissioners after careful con 'sideration decided that 1t would not be wise to establish a precedent for the acceptance of money for duties per- formed by patrolmen when these were distinctly in line with their regular work. They therefore instructed that the check be returned with expressions of thanks for Mir Hill's generous ap- preciation.
 James Maher of 72 Nash street and William H. MeKiernan of 25 St. John street, who were reported as eligible by the civil service board were appoint ed to the supernumerary list.
