Philadelphia. Oct 23.-RepOrts from various sources indicate that three of the balloonists which left St Louis Monday afternoon passed over this city between 6:45 and 7:10 o'clock this morning. One was positively identified as the German balloon Pom Toern. which was seen at Cleveland yesterday afternoon. Another wrs partly identified as the English balloon Lotus II. which passed over Wheel ing. West Virginia, yesterday travel ing eastward. A note dropped from the German balloon and picked LID by man on his way to work reads:
 Am 5000 feet in the air and have travelled 1000 miles Am trying to make Atlantic City"
 The third balloon was not identi- fled. All were travelling in q north easterly direction and unless they meet with some accident. they will land on the coast within q few hours.

Spanish Noblemen Injured.

Boston, Oct. 23.-Through a cable gram sent to the king of Spain it has been learned that two of the victims of Brookline automobile accident on Oct. 15 were Spanish noblemen and that both have been in critical con- dition since at the Massachusetts gen. eral hospital, where their identity has been closely guarded. The men are Count Petro Gonzalus, aged 29, and Nobleman Won Dune, 33, both of the court of Spain. They were the guests of Larz Anderson, the Brookline mil lionaire, who was also of the automo- bile party.

FOUND IN RIVER
Body Answers Description of the Missing Mrs Partridge
 -Gone 19 Days.

New York, Oct. 23.-The body of a woman. of refined appearance found yesterday floating in the East river answers in most particulars the de- scription of Mrs Clifford w. Hartridge the missing wife of Harry K. Thaw's counsel and friend. The body will be viewed to-day by member of the family to determine if it is Mrs Hart ridge.
 Mrs Leslie w. Russell, the missing woman's mother, said last night at her home that she was impressed with the similarity of the description of the body in the Fordham morgue with that of her daughter. The only diff ference seems to be that when she went away Mrs Hartridge wore a black skirt, while the skirt of the woman found in the river is a very dark gray. The wife of the lawyer could be positively identified by a mole behind her right ear but there is an abrasion behind the right ear of the body, which might have easily removed such a mark.
 The woman's nails were manicured and she bore every evidence of hav- ing come from good surroundings Coroner Schwannecke said that the body might prove to be Mrs Hart ridges. She has been missing nine teen days. Mrs Russell said last night that MT Hartridge was under the care of a physician and that it would be impossible for him to en- deavor to make an identification.

 iDaI SIauder.

New York; Oct 23.-A warrant for the arrest of William R. Hearst was is sued by Justice w. F. Wyatt of spe- cial sessions at his home, 2S East Thir- tieth street. The application was made by Sidney Harris, counsel for William Astor Chanler, and the ground for the warrant was alleged criminal libel

In this article was printed: As the result of the arrest of Hugo c. Voecks, charged with having at tempted to extort money from Ray mond Hitchcock. the we'll known Broadway comedian, it developed to- day that a similar plot had been de- vised against William AstOr Chanler, the young millionaire politician, who makes his home on his beautiful Long Island estate"

Boston Mans Opinion,

Boston, Oct 23.-Major Henry l.. Hlgginson. a leading bapker of this city, says regarding the financial con- ditions:
 "The financial conditions existing to-day are due to a combination of causes. Chief among these is the publicity given the methods of some of the large operators and the fear engendered by the big stick policy of the administration. It is hard to tell what the immediate effect will be. I have not heard of Boston bank that is expecting the slightest trouble. We are light in the midst now of panic worse than the panic of 1893, so far as the stock market is concerned. It has lasted longer. l look to see it affect industrial con- ditions. It may not go to the ex- tremes of hard times. but I look to see and I hope to see business dull and times slack. There is not enough money to carry on business in the country at the rate it is progress ing to-day. The amount of money and the amount of business must be equalized, no matter how painful the process, if we want the financial con ditions strengthened out"
 Major Higginson advocates stock buying and believes times are pro- pitous for the small investor.

 Later Mrs. Broome removed from Washington to a southern resort, and it was published at the time that Colo nel Broome was plotting to follow and take the child away with him when he returned to duty in the West Indies. Efforts were made at recon ciliation, but all of these failed, and the divorce was secured. The mar riage, it is said, will take place in No- vamhar

STILL ANOTHER
Financial Circles in Pittsburg Got a Rude Shock This Morn'
 ing When Market Closed
CONDITIONS ARE WORSE

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct 23.-Pittsburg financial circles were thrown into an uproar at the opening of business to-day when Secretary c. J. Holman made the following announcement:
 'At the request of the Pittsburs clearing house and at the sugges- tion of the members and board of directors the Pittsburg stock ex- change has been closed for the day"
 President R. c. Hall then issued statement reading as follows
 "The Security Investment Go finds itself involved. This will necessi- tate temporary. suspension or re- ceivership of the Westinghouse Elec- tric and Manufacturing Go, the West inghouse Machine Co and the Nernst Lamp Go. The manufacturing com panies are in an absolutely solvent condition. The condition of the Se- curity Investment Co will in no way affect the Union Switch and Signal Co and the Westinghouse Air Brake Go. I would like it explicitly under stood that it was at the request of the Pittsburg clearing house that we have suspended trading temporari- ly."
 The petition for a receiver of the concerns named, it is said, will be made to-day. Bankers express no doubt of pulling through the con- panies successfully.
 The embarrassment of the con cerns is attributed to inability to se cure funds on account of the strin- gency in the money market. The amount involved will run up into millions.

CORTELYOU HELPS
His Presence in New York Has Served 10 Quiet Some of
 the Nerv0u. mss.

New York Oct. 23.-Anxiety over the situation that has developed in the trust company and banking situ. ation during the past week continued to cloud the business horizon to-day although the nervousness and alarm so noticeable yesterday was consider ably lessened by the presence of Sec retary of the Treasury Cortelyou in the city and his promse to remain at the treasury throughout the day MT Cortelyou's statement made late last night affirming the strong condi- tion of the national banks of this city also had a good effect on sentiment and served to relieve the apprehen- sions of business men that the cur tailment of credits through the situ- ation following the suspension of pay ments by the Knickerbocker Trust company might hamper the financing of general mercantile affairs.
 MT Cortelyous statement was as follows:
 q repeat what I stated before leav- ing Washington, if for no other req son than to emphasize the attitude O. the treasury department. It will use its facilities to assist in every proper way legitimate business interests and its action will be prompt and thorough.
 "The national banks of New York are in an exceptionally strong condi- tion. The general situation here seems to be we'll in hand and is being looked after by many strong and in f1uential men, such as those whose re- cent action in the clearing house re- ceived emphatic public approval. The movement for similar concert of ac- tion among the trust companies should have helpful and far reach ing effect. I shall spend the day at the treasury"
 The unfavorable development of the night was the news that the Trust company of America, one of tho city's largest financial institutions with deposits approXimating $50,0OO,- 900 and total assets and liabilities in excess of $60,000,000, was in need of assistance. At the same time that it became known that the Trust Con- pany of America had given a state ment of its affairs to other bankers with request for aid, it was also an- nounced that liberal assistance would be given to the Trust Company of America to-day and also that that in- stitution had in it's vaults $12,O0O,- 900 in cash with which to begin pay ing off it's depositors to-day should there be an unusual demand. It be- came known last night also that bankers generally did not regard the position of the Knickerbocker Trust company as favorable and were in- clined to permit it to go into liquida. tion.
 As is usual in time of stress Lon don quotations on American securities were eagerly awaited to-day. The 1 o'clock prices showed only fractional changes and there were mixed. Some stocks notably Baltimore & Ohio, and St Paul advanced 7s. Amalgamated copper declined 7s.
