YEsTERDAYS STOCK MARKET
Prices Break With violence In the Late
 Dealings.

New York, March 4-Prices broke with violence in the later dealings in stocks to-day, and the market gave every appearance of wholesale liquida- tion being in force. The early action of the market gave an impression of bear attack. There was moment of strength in a few issues at the open ing, and there were points of resist ance in the early decline. But the whole list was swept into the down. ward movement and the decline gained impetus as the futiity of the efforts at support was perceived and stop-loss or ders were uncovered on the decline. The supposition gained ground also that there was some large liquidation of what are called investment holdings going on. These reports caused a gloomy feeling over the whole indus trial and business outlook, For in stance it was affirmed that efforts were being made to secure the cancel lation of some of t1e orders on the books of the United States Steel cor poretion for future delivery, owing to the disinelination of the contractors to accept the deliveries It was asserted also that the Pennsylvania railroad was seeking to abrogate some of it's or ders for freight cars, prompted by q revised view of the outlook for traffic. These reports were without confirma- tion upon inquiry in official quarters. It was heralded, on the other hand, that a powerful bear party had been formed in the speculation, made up of and allied industries. The supposition of this leadership induced some large following on the selling side.
 The earliest show of pronounced weakness was in the Hill and Harri- man stocks. The rapid downward course of these stocks gave rise to talk of liquidation of Hartman holdings of l the Hill stocks, and of market repris- als for grievances believed to grow out of the Hartman investigation, or of | some of the information furnished for i the purposes of that investikation. Re- i ports of net earnings of railroads for | January showed the inroads resulting 1 from the increases in wages t2lat went l into effect on January l. This effect of the growing cost of operations of rail- roads and the difficulty of securing capital for the betterments which alone would avail to reduce the operating cost brought into consideration, nat urallY. the integrity of dividends. A number of preferred stocks on which the dividends have a comparatively narrow surplus of earnings to depend made precipitate declines of compara- lively light dealings.
 The early resistance was in the de- partment of specialties, for tie most part, and among the industrials. Read ing was strong and seemed to be accu- mulated with persistence into the after noon The coppers and United States Steel also were late in yielding Money here grew easier on call with the prog ress Of the liquidation, but time loans were strongly held.
 The closing tone was feverish and unsettled, and the rally due to covering of shorts was poorly held,
 Bonds were weak. Total sales pal value $1, 714,00O
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

MARY MANNERING.

Large Audience Sees Her Play, "Glori-
 ous Betsy" at the Hyperion-Anoth- CT Performance This Evening.
 Mary Mannering ct al. appeared last night in Rlda Johnson Young's new play, Glorious Betsy" at the Fly perion. Glorious Betsy is by the same woman who wrote Brown of Harvard" but you could never tell it, from internal evidence at least, the two plays are on such entirely different themes. Glorious Betsy has nothing at all to do with college life. It tells of the love affair of Jerome Bonaparte, brother of the great Napoleon, with 1 Betsy Patterson of Baltimore. The course of true love never did run smooth, and similarwise Bet and Jerry bump the bumps with the rest of the bunch. They finally marry of course, emperor to the contrary notwithstand- ing. You see, Napoleon wanted Jerome i to marry die hochgeboren, gnadige- frauelein Kronprinzesse Frederick con Brauereimark, or such another person, which would have fixed the little brother up very nicely as king of West phalia, but Jerome couldn't see it lit tie bit with Betsy doing baby-talk at him in the hammock. There's a row, iof course, and things look pretty dark for a time; Betsy's lost her appetite; Jerome's checked his trunk to Vest phalia; tears, heart-b burnings, dim lights, and low music; soft-pedal pa- thos all round; stifed moans from the Gumdrop Girls in orchestra circle; everything very pathetic, in fact; when all of a sudden, up bobs Jerry again. He's scalped his Westphalia mileage, you see, for a passage on the next boat back, back back to Baltimore. Dra- matte, eh?--not to say theatrical. He spraddles his arms way out: Nun, huh, cud nut duh it!' Betsy sags down onto his bosom, and
 -Curtain
 admidst general jubilations.
 We'll that makes the play; Jerome has renounced crown to marry for love, Which is ali very nice and noble. Unfortunately, however, the play ends just about where real history begins Jerome changed his mind two years afterwards, got the marriage annulled and married into the throne of West phalia, after all. It sort of takes off from the Glorious Betsy" play when you know what a paltry rascal this real Jerome was, and now he really treated his wife Still, that's neither here nor there; the play itself is mighty good, if you're interested in Mary Man nering and like romantic plays with lots of heart interest.
 Miss Mannering got all out of the part of Glorious Betsy that there was in it. The supporting cast also was pretty good.
 Messrs. Shubert have staged the play in their usual lavish style. "Tne Rose Garden" set in act two is one of the prettiest bits of stage scenery seen here this season.
 Mary Mannerlng in Glorious Betsy will be seen here again this evening al the Hyperion.

Two more instances of shrinking of net earnings were given in the January statements of Erie and Norfolk and Western. Erie had $75,4S4 gross loss to start with. and on top of that raised operating expenses $55,55O, so the net loss was $130,9S4. Norfolk had a gross gain of SlS0,T05, but an expansion of $215,5SS in charges made a net loss of $31,SSS.
