WHAT l(H| SAYS
ITO KNOCK DWIGHT

While the political storm Is over,
some OF the broken-down bosses are
doing their best to keep alive the race
Issue and have taken Sam Dwight as
their chief man to hammer.
Senator Achi of Achi't labor party,
said yesterday that before election
Dwight openly announced In his pub
lie speech that should he be elected
he would not support Sam Johnson as
u road supervisor, The natives, says
Achi. were greatly pleased to hear
Dwight make such announcement. and
believed that he would not 20 back ON
his word, they voted for him. Since
the election. Dwight practically made
the came statement In the presence OF
Senator Achi and one other gentleman
and was congratulated for his stand,
so Achi says. The labor party has
since learned that Dwight at the first
supervisorial caucus voted for johnson
and the natives, says Achi, are saying
that Dwight got them all fooled. Had
Dwight told the natives that he would
vote for Johnson, they certainly would
not have given him their votes, says
Achi.

The Treasurer and the Attorney
Generals Department thought they

The company paid the amount under
protest, with the understanding that II
the courts decided in Its favor, the dit.
ference should be refunded by the

done.
But Deputy Attorney General Pros
ser states that the Supreme Courts
decision will probably necessitate the
passage Of a law by the Legislature
authorizing the taxation of the entire
amount Of capital stock which a com
pany may issue.
Attorney General Peters said that
he had not looked into the matter sui

NEW YORK. March 1.-THE violent agl

extent and the volume of trading fcl!
away nearly one half The constant ner-
vous fluctuations OF prices, however,
showed clearly enough the after effects
of the exciting turmoil of yesterdays al
most unprecedented market. sentiment
was greatly depressed by the weak clos
ing. While the fluctuations were con-
stant, they were by no means as large as
yesterday.
The active operations at different points
in the market showed the existence OF
two we'll defined parties In the specula-
ton There was beated liquidation in
some stocks which appeared TO be drasti =
and was of considerable effect on prices.
The market gave way again ana again
in sympathy with the outbreak of Wed@
points and as often rallied in sympathy
with the resistency displayed by some OF
the railroad stocks until the sudden
weakening of the whole market at the
close. The result was to keep market
observers in a fever OF hesitation as 20
whether the elimination of the long de-
cline was signalized by the abrupt drives
against the shorts precipitated by the
panic among the bears in Reading yester-
day.
The market started with an aggressive
reservation of bear attacks which forced
a violent reaction in Reading itself and a
severe decline in Canadian Paclhc. Al
most Immediately prices rebounded 10
level well above last nlBnI = Close' ing
impressive dealings in Reading remained
a mystery. Failure of confirmation OF
yesterdays rumors of passing Of control
threw them into discredit and opinion
remained divided between that supposi-
tion or one of purely speculative oper-
ations with effective manipulation
against the over-extended bear account.
Atchison also was severe suHerer
from renewed selling. The liquidation In
Southern railway and Erie was also pro
nolinced and was of such a character as
to throw the balance of the whole market
for the time to the side of the depres-
sion. Southern railways report OF de.
cline in net earnings for January or
nearly 40 per cent gave point to the eX-
pressed fears for the reduction or the
passing of the dividend upon the prefer
red stock On the other hand, there was
steady absorption of the Hartman ana
Hill stocks. The Hartman stocks were
Influenced by the showing of net earn
irgs for January, which showed an IN
crease for Southern Pacific of 4O per cent
and of Union Pacific of 10 per cent s.
