LONDON MARKET GLOOMY.
Week Just Closed One of the Black
est in Many Years.


London, June S.-This has been the
blackest week in many years on the
London Stock Exchange Values
throughout the list shrunk even at a
more rapid rate than during the long
previous decline. and next weeks set
tlement is awaited with considerable
apprehension. The hammering Of a
well-knOwn member a week ago had a
tragic sequel in the suicide of a victim
and a prominent firm defaulted yester-
day.
This failure brings the total number
Of defaulters since the beginning Of the
year to thirty, and altogether thirty
four members have left the exchange
since the close Of last year. owing to
default, expulsion. and compulsory
cessation Of membership. These fail
ures are symptoms Of the terrible state
Of affairs in exchange, and add TO the
difficulties by necessitatng more uqui-
datlOn.
Since the American debacle in March.
which brought a long list OF defaults.
there has been perpetual selling. mostly
of a forced character. which reduced
prices 10 an absurdly low level Tn,
fortunately, the investor still holds
himself aloof. so no support for the
market worth speaking Of is forth
coming.
The Washington herald., 1907-06-09

The general tone Of the letters sent nut
at the close Of the week by the commits
sion houses was more bullish than for
some weeks past. Some founded their
more cheerful views on the idea that the
administration had modified its attitude
of hostility to the corporations, others on
the supposed improvement in the crop
outlook; all conceded that liquidation had
ceased; that large interests had appar-
entity resumed their Purchases Of stocks.

SMALL BOYS SEND
FLYER INTO Ditch,
BIG FOUR NO. 10 WRECKED NEAR
COLUMBUS, BUT NO ONE
IS KILLED.
TRAIN REPORTED ON FIRE.
Mate to Twentieth Century Limited
Dashes Through Open Switch
Thrown by Children.

COLUMBUS, O., June 1S.-Big Four
passenger train No. 10, one Of the fastest
trains on the New York Central lines,
went through an open switch today i'll
the northern part of the city and is now
lying on it's side along the track Sew
eral passengers were seriously injured.
Many of them are wondering how they
escaped being instantly killed.
The wreckage is reported to be on
fire and the whole train was burned.
Officials say they have evidence to
show that the switch, which wrecked the
express was thrown open by gang OF
boys. The superintendent here says that
another train passed over the road TWEEN
ty minutes before No. 10 came along and
the engineer noticed a crowd of boys
near the switch, which controlled the
spur of track into the sewer pipe works,
where the wreck occurred.
The train was rushing along, according
to one of the passengers, at fifty miles
an hour when it struck the switch, throw
ing the passengers in every direction.
The tender of the engine ran along the
side of the track for a distance and
then plunged along and into the ground
about twenty-five feet. The engine con,
tinued along the side of the track 2OO
yards and then turned over as did the
rest of the train.
Jumps and Will Die.
Engineer William T. Smith remained
at his post and was uninjured. His fire
man, Joseph Mahatfey of Cleveland,
jumped and was probably fatally injured.
The train is a mate of the Twentieth
Century Limited, and carried through
sleepers from New York. These sleepers
were wrecked. The wreck did not catch
fire.
The seriously injured are:
Mrs. Elizabeth Lowry, age 60 Cleveland,
hip injured.
II. L. Reed, Mansfield, o., face cut.
Mrs. Or.) Hyndman, 517 West One Hun
bred and Forty fourth street, New York.
back hurt and body bruised.
Wreck Is Inaccessible.
The wreck occurred in a portion of
the city which is almost inaccessible and
it was some time before aid reached
the passengers. All the ambulances III
the city were rushed to the scene as soon
as possible and the seriously injured car
ried to them and hurried to the hos
pitfalls.
Many of the passengers in the sleep
ers were only scratched and slightly
bruised, and wese able to walk to a
street car or other conveyance. They
came into the city. Many refused to give
their names. 1t is not believed that any
of the injured except the fireman will
die.
The wrecked train carries through
sleeper from the Lake Shore limited and
leaves Cleveland. at 1926 a. m, daily.
No. 10 is known among railway men as
the Lake Shore Limited.

Another Body Is Found.
SCHMITZ IS DEPOSED.
San Francisco Official, Now Prisoner
Under Conviction of Crime, Is
Ousted by Board.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, June 1S.-
Mayor Schmitz was formally removed
from office by the board of supervisors at
a meeting yesterday afternoon. Super
visor James Gallagher was appointed act
ing mayor.
This is the first step taken by the
graft prosecution IN the execution of their
plan to restore good government in this
city. Th2 ground on which Mayor
ScEmitz was removed is that owing to
his incarceration in the county Jail, fol-
lowing his conviction on felony charge,
he is no longer able to perform his Off
cal duties.
Gallagher will Lot hold the position of
acting mayor fer more than few days.
The resignation of a certain member of
the board of supervisors will make room
FOR the appointment of responsible citi-
zen, who will take Gallagher's place as
acting mayor.
1t will probably be James Phelan.

of forty hours, his sturdy little legs torn
