Manila, Nov 5.-Secretary Taft is
considering his immediate return to
the United States and the abandon
ment of his tour.
The financial crisis in the United
States, urgent demands on the part of
his political followers and the mutiny

to return.
Taft's return is looked for in offic-
ial circles although no decision has
been reached by him as far as is
known here.
The recent mutiny at Vladivostok
and the uncertain conditions of af-
fairs there make the visit of the sec
retary embarrassing to Russians and

NEW YORk'S
 WORST DAY
The Whole Financial StruCt.

It is Believed Now That Nothing More Disastrous Can Happen.

New York. Oct. 22.-The foundation of all business trembled for a time to- day and before confidence could be re- stored. New York's second largest financial institution had emptied its cash values under pressure of the big gest run experienced here in a gener- ation; a stock exchagne firm had failed for s6.000. 900. and Wall streets principal securities had settled from : to s points a share; call money had risen to 70 per cent and local bankers had united to stem the tide of distrust and had been forced to appeal to the secretary of the treasury for relief.
 All this was in the face of reassur- ing statements by the acting state superintendent of banks that the suspected bank was solvent, and de- clarations by prominent bankers that there was no true basis for any alarm. and assurance from Washington that Secretary Cortelyou would not hesi- tate to act promptly in any situation where legitimate business was threat ened.
 Now that the first scare is over and the worst of the future discounted it is believed that local banking affairs will soon readjust themselves. Secre- tary Cortelyou reached New York from Washington at 9:30. He was met al Jersey City by Hamilton Fish assist ant United States treasurer

Hermosillo too must be reckoned with in the race. The team is no longer a joke and is adding some new timber to brace up the weak places in the lineup.

TRIAL
 UNDER WAY
Ruef Will Probably Not Take the Stand
The Peoples Main Witness Attacked by a Loss of Memory.

San Francisco, Oct. 22.-The jury was completed and the taking of testi-
 mony was begun today in the trial of
 Ford charged with the bribery of Sup ervisor Jennings J. Phillips in the in
 terests of the trolley franchise. Heney
 in his opening statement to the Jury.
 intimated that the prosecution will not call Ruef to the stand unless his ap- pearance in rebuttal is made neces- sary by the evidence introduced by the defense. If this promise is kept, and
 if the defense adopts its previous
 policy of offering no evidence, Ruef will not testify.
 It is said that complete immunity is
 the price Ruef has set on his services as a witness. and that the bribery
 graft prosecution refused to meet his
 terms. having publicly announced its intention of putting Ruef in the peni- tentiary at some future time.
 The surprise of the day was the seeming recalcitrancy of Jennings J.
 Phillips, the second witness called. He declared himself unable to remember whether Supervisor Gallagher alleg- edly acting in behalf of the United
 Railroads and by the direction of Ruef had paid him the first half of the s4000 bribe before or after the pas sage of the franchise. and Heney had great
 difficulty in getting him to admit that
 to the best of his recollection the offer of money was made in the period that elapsed between the introduction and massage of the ordinance Heney at length grew very angry. Phillips. in
 turn, acted as though he was badly scared. and appealed to Heney to be- lieve that he was doing his best and
 meant to tell the truth" Heney's re- ply was that if true, his appearances
 was very deceiving.
 After adjournment light wagers were laid among the crowd that If Phillips doesn't come through with the goods
 tomorrow his immunity contract will be revoked and he will be indicted by
 the grand jury for accepting Il bribe.
