 He had no doubt that MT. Newlands had been actuated by generous inn pulses, but he felt that if he had con suited with the California senators, h. might have been dissuaded from pre- senting the resolution. which he con sidered would have been most desira- ble.
 MT. Aldrich then moved the reference of the resolution to the committee or finance and that motion prevailed without opposition. He promised that the committee would take up the res Olution promptly and report as its Judgment might dictate.

Washington, May 2.-That the Cali fornia senators do not consider that there should at present be an effort to secure government aid in the general construction of the city of San Francis co, was made evident in the senate. The question came up on MT. Newland'S resolution directing the finance com mittee of the senate and the ways and means committee of the house to con slider the feasibility of the government guaranteeing bonds to aid in the reha- Utilization of the stricken city. The Ne vada senator discussed the resolution at some length. contending for the reg ularity of his suggestion and enlaFging upon the desirability of making the city a more attractive center of popula- tion than it had ever been. Both Mr. Flint and MT. Perkins deprecated the introduction of the resolution at this time and both vindicated their opinion that the California delegation should have been consulted before the pre- sentatiOn of the measure. The resOlu - ton was referred to the house finan- cial committee.
 MT. Daniel completed his speech on the railroad rate bill. The army ap- propriatiOn bill was read at length. but it's consideration was not included. An amendment appropriating $1,5OO, 900 for a supply depot al Fort Mason, San Francisco, was accepted, as was also a provision authorizing q submarine ca ble to Panama to cost $9O0. 900.
 MT. Newlands said he offered the res OlutiOn without consulting the Cali fOrnia senators, feeling that they might be sensitive on the resolution asking aid While he and those connected with him had been heavy losers. they would be beneficiaries under his reso- lution if it should become a law. We propose to reconstruct our hotels and finance the matter ourselves he said, and he added that his interest was due solely to his interest in the Pacific coast generally.
 MT. Newlands said that he thought as much as S250.000, 900 or S3OO,0OO, 900 would be necessary to accomplish the complete rehabilitation of the city. Of that he thought the insurance compan- ies would supply $1OO, ,OOO, 900 or $15O,- 00O.000, and private enterprises also would do much. He believed the gov ernment would not be called upon to guarantee more than S100, 900, 900.
 "A country that can spend $2OO OOO.- 900 in freeing Cuba and $500, ,O0O, 900 in instructing the Filipinos in self gov ernment, can," he said, afford to lend its credit to the extent of fifty or one

WALL STREET
 PANIC RACES
The Worst Disturbance
 Within Five Years
Stocks Lately FavOrItes Were Ham mered nercilessly--NObOdy Wanted Them at any Price.

New York. May Not since the Northern Pacific panic of May 9, 1901 has there been such a spectacular de cline in prices on stock exchange as there was today. Heavy selling. al- most regardless of the prices offered began with the opening of the market and from that time till near the close the tone generally was weak.
 Each rally except the last one, just before o'clock, was followed by a re- sumption of the selling movement. The days trading was extremely heavy, ris- ing to a total of 2.445, ,O0O shares. Nearly ,0OO shares of stocks changed hands in the first hour of trading.
 Anaconda was the subject of much comment. Today's opening price of 532 was 6S points below the high price of the year, which was made on February 13. Twelve months ago the stock sold as low as 1OO1k. The weakness grew more pronounced during the second hour, when Union Pacific was hammer ed down below 1S9. smelters below 139 Reading down to 115; Anaconda below 2SO; Amalgamated below 98 and steel pfd. to 1O2
 At noon support seemed to have been entirely withdrawn and there was ab- solute demoralization. Nobody seemed to want stocks at any price. and they were thrown over so fast that the tick CT tape was from to 10 minutes be- hind in reporting sales
 There was another rally at l2:15 but this was followed by drive against Reading. which carried it dowr to 112. After 2 o'clock it appeared that there was no further liquidation ir sight and prices rallied to the best oi 1 the day.
 There was no definite news to ac- count for the heavy selling and conse- quent collapse in prices.

HARD TIMES

Money for Rebuilding San

It Will Be Furnished in Plenty With in Year.-Ailitary Now Has En- tire Charge Of FOOd Distribution.

San Francisco. May 3.-An investi- gation made today has demonstrated that the fear that San Francisco will suffer period of hard times as an af- termath of the disaster, is unfounded. Careful estimates made by authorities competent to speak, show that within the next year there will be over $2OO,- 100000 available for the rehabilitation of San Francisco.
 It is said that a large part of this money will come from eastern and foreign capitalists. In figuring the two hundred and fifty odd million which will be available the investi- gators did not take into considerati on the sums that may be received for the beautifying and improvement Of the city.
 The vexatious problem of locating the new Chinatown will probably be settled to the satisfaction of the Chi nese colony.

PEACE MESSENGER
 VISITS SCRANTON
But it is Predicted That the csnVsn-
 ton Will End in a Strike.

Scranton, Pa, May 2.-That the tri~ district convention of the United Mine Workers, which opens in this city to- morrow morning. will declare a strike throughout the hard coal fields. is the opinion here tonight of every one in touch with the situation. It seems that there is no way out of strike unless the mine workers back down, and all of the delegates who are coming to town tonight are very far from favor ing anything closely approaching q backdown.
 President John Mitchell arrived here this morning. This afternoon he met with the members of the joint scale committee and presented for their con- sideration a copy of the committee re- port, which he had been preparing for some days. The report was approved in it's entirety. At the conclusion of the meeting Mir. Mitchell said that the
 report would contain no recommenda- tions.
 President Mitchell had a mysterious conference here today with pr. Chas P. Neill of Washington, United States labor commissioner, and sliding scale commissioner pr. Neil was met al the railroad station by J. J. Loftus, a close personal friend of President Mitchell and taken immediately to
 Mir MitcheIFs office Mr. Loftus had been notified over the long distance i telephone by Ralph M Easley of New
 York, secretary of the civic federation to meet Dr. Neill and keep his presence l in the city a secret. Immediately after the conference Dr. NeilI left for | WiIkesbarre and said that he would go to Washington tomorrow morning. He would not say what the object of his
 visit was, except that he came in the | interest of peace. He said he had been sent by no one. Asked if he was aI envoy of President Roosevelt, he said | he had not seen the president for six weeks.
 l MT. Mitchell said that Dr. Neill's visit was of mo great importance" It seem ed to be the general belief here tonight l that Dr. NeilI will report to President | Roosevelt upon the situation. It is be- lieved his conference was the result oi
 an attempt on the part of the civic
 federation to feel it's way into the situation.
 | The convention tomorrow will be at l itended by 600 delegates. It is ex- l pected that the sessions will continue
 until Saturday and that if a strike or
 der is issued it will go into effect or Monday next.
