HEAVY SELLING MOVEMENT |
LOSSES IN RAILWAY LIST

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 1S.-The further
general and extensive decline i! prices IN
today's stock market was not accompanied
by any more satisfactory direct and novel
explanations than have been present
throughout the week. Liquidation was I'M
mstakably present in many directions, how
ever as were aggressive operations for the
short account.
In the absence of any actual facts suf-
fcent to account for the heavy selling
movement, the Wall street imagination feil
back upon a variety of rumors of the de-
scription that usually attains circulation IN
times of similar unsettlement in the stock
market.
II would serve no particular purpose to
make reference TO this last phase of the
days situation. except that upon occasions
these reports We're so persistent and def
mite as actually to amount to an influence
In the dealings. The day opened with no
new contributions OF any consequence 10
the situation at large relating to the gen.
eral market or particular stocks.
The London Market.
The London stock market was depressed
again. falling to show any favorable reflec-
ton of yesterdays reduction in the dis
count rate of the Bank of England. Oper-
alIons here for foreign account continued
on the selling side. but were not much In
excess of 1900 shares on balance Money
market conditions showed little alteration
from yesterdays levels for call and time
loans.
The preliminary estimates of the prfnci-
pal movements in currency during the week
Indicated gain by the banks in the neigh-
borhood of S15.00O.000. Of which amount
$S.OOO.CO0 represented the net balance or
the direct movements in currency. The
practical assurance, however, of very
heavy consequent increase in reserves In TO-
morrow's bank statement seemed to play
no part whatever in the dealings in securl-
ties
Copper and Steel.
There was nothing of any Importance re-
Iating TO either Amalgamated Copper or the
United States Steel stocks, but apparently
Wall street jumped to the conclusion that
the absence of an advance in the rate OF
dividend on Amaigamated Copper implied
that no change in the dividend on United
Aates Steel common could be expected.
A number of round losses were suffered
tn the railway list also, weak features
there being ST. Paul. Canadian Pacific, the
600 stocks Southern Pacific. Union Pacific,
Reading and Delaware and Hudson.

toned In the reading) was so real
that those who heard will not forget.
The committee, Mrs. Herrick, Mrs.
Griswold and Mrs. Laudy. are also
deserving of special mention for
their services in making the program
a success. The children were highly
pleased with their treat of nuts,
candy and oranges. and entered into
the true spirit of the occasion.
The church was decorated with
some choice notices and evergreens
and the entertainment was a sue

making an honest effort to stand for
those things which are good, true

Then Hill approached the leading

background, discouraged because OF
the eclipse by his rivals. and poured
the money into his lap.
The Italian was quite embarrass-
.ingly grateful He insisted on kiss
ing Hill's hand before all the pass

broken English, to send "gratta ori-

man II he would only give him

new THEORY SUCCESSFUL
IN INDIANAPOLIS
L. T. Cooper Makes Many Converts Dur
ing Stay in That City

The new theory (baeked up by
his preparatiOn) advanced by l.. T.
Cooper with regard to the cause of
most III health of the present genera
tion is being sown broadcast by this
young man.
Cooper believes that the human
stomach has become degenerate in
civilized races and claims that good
health Is impossible unless the stom-
ash Is re-yitalized. This he claims TO
do with his preparation.
An article from the indianapolis
Star during Coopers stay in that city
has this to say of Cooper and his
preparation.
Reports that preceded Mr.. Coop
er's visit here told of his success In
other localities. but the immense
success of his medicine and the gem
'eral belief in this theory was wholly
unprecedented.
so great is the much of the pub
lie 10 this young man that people
stand IN line waiting their turn for
hours in an effort to see him. The
most Interesting feature of this is
statements made by reliable citizens
as TO the actual accomplishments of
COoper's medicine. Among recent
staten nts of this character the fol-
lowing Is a fair example,;

Committee Meeting With Success.

The Denver campaign of the Commit
tee of One Hundred now at work rails
ing 100000 advertising fund to eX-
plot Greater Colorado" will be fin
ished within short time. The cam
paign throughout the state will then be
commenced. The coming of the COM
mittee has already been told by letter
to every business man, as well as every
city and county official. Every board
of county commissioners in the state has
also been asked to make an appropria-
tion of not less than $500 for this work
This authority is granted them under a
recent legislative act which gives the
commissioners the right to appropriate
money for the purpose of advertising
the products and industries of their
respective counties. The law in full
reads as follows:
''The boards of county commissioners
of the several counties within the state
of Colorado, or any of them, are hereby
authorized and empowered to levy a
special tax upon the taxable property
within their respective counties for the
purpose of creating fund not exceed
ten thousand dollars ($1O, in any
one county to be used for advertising
the county for the purpose of encourag-
ing immigration and increasing trade in
the products of the state of Colorado,
provided the total tax levies for such
purpose in any one year shall not ex-
ceed one mill on each dollar of taxable
property according to the assessment
roll, and further provided that the
moneys appropriated under this act
shall be expended only under the direc-
tion of regularly organized and incor-
porated Boards of Trade, Chambers of
Commerce or Commercial Associations,
either state or local in character.
Already the fund being collected by
the committee of One Hundred has
reached 500, 900. Fort Collins and Lari-
mer county have increased their SUBJ
scription from 81, 900 to 1900. Thomas
M. Walsh has cabled from Saville,
Spain, life membership in the Colo
RAIDS State Commercial association,
making his first years subscription
$500. Among other contributors is
Senator I. M. Patterson who has given
$3.50.
In the state campaign each county
will be visited by a representative of
the committee of One Hundred. The
movement is being rapidly taken up all
over the entire state and it's success
seems assured.

The trial of Meyer, Haywoo

The trial of Meyer, Haywood
and Pettibone, of the Western
Federation of Miners, charged
with conspiracy in the murder of
Governor Stuenenberg of Idaho,
has finally been set for hearing on
the 9th of this month. This case
doubtless will hold the attention
of the public closer than any ever
held in this country. The strong
est and brainiest legal talent of
the west has been engaged by the
prosecution and the defense. An
enormous amount of money has
been raised by the Federation
members to defend their associ-
ates. Up to the 1st of April, ac-
cording to statement made by
the person in charge of the funds,
the sum of S101,5 had been col
lected. Since then many large
contributions have come in and ii
is expected that before the case is
ended $1,OOO,O00 will have been
contributed.

tcted to act as jurors in the trial.
The tendency among the Ameri-
can people is to believe man in
nocent until he is proven guilty
and while Meyer and Haywood
may be as black as the president
paints them, the people are fair
minded enough to wait until this
fact is thoroughly established be-
fore they form an opinion. This
last break of the presidents is
only another of a series of blund-
ers he has made since serving his
second term and if he continues as
he has the past two years, before
his administration closes it is
doubtful if his party would con-
slider him for denomination even
though he should consent to run
again.
