WORK IS STOPPED
Every Employe in Copper Works at C0ram, Calf, Mines Has
 Been Discharged.

Bedding, Cal, Oct 22.-In obedi- ence to orders received from Boston, the c. D. Balaklala Copper Co at Coram stopped construction work yesterday on the big shelter now nearly completed at a cost of a mill lion dollars. Every man in the con- panys employ was dismissed, save enough to care for the machinery yet arriving. All accounts are to be closed and nothing will be done to- wards completing the smelter or re- opening the mine until the copper market is more favorable. The town of Coram, with a population of 1,500, was thunderstruck at the situ- ation. It was expected that the shelter would start up before New Years. Now the opening is put off indefinitely or until copper is selling higher. So far the furry in the cop- per markets has made no difference in the copper camps of keswick, kennett and Ingot, where the smell ters are running as formerly and there is no talk of shutting down.

Wall Street Excited.

New York, Oct 2.-Excitement amounting almost to alarm marked the opening of the business to-day in Wall street. The stock market opened demoralized under heavy sell ing by brokers in all departments of the exchange, and at the same mo- ment a run of considerable propor- tions was being made on the various offices of the Knickerbocker Trust Go. At the main office. Fifth ave- nue and Thirty-fourth street. more than 150 persons were in line at 10:30 and there was a line of car riages in waiting extending for more than a block.
 The stock markets opening showed severely the effect of the re- newed shock to confidence caused by the spread of financial distruct by the published details of the affairs of the KnickerbackcI Trust Co Prices broke widely on the opening transactions under this OutpOuring of stocks. but almost immediately rallied. The rebound approximated from one-fourth to one-half of the first break.

Quiet at Boston.

Boston, Oct 22.-There is. apparent ly. little anxiety among banking in terests here over the New York sit uatiOn. though the developments in the emergency in that city are be- ing closely watched. Charles \. Rug gles, manager of the Boston Clearing House association. officials of the National Shawmut hank. by far the largest in the city. and of other banks agreed today that they felt no ner- vOusnesS over the New York situa- ton. partly because the KnickeFllock- CT Trust company had no Boston connections and because they believe that the allied banking interests of New York will stand together to pre- vent q crash at this critical time. There iS also a feeling that with the elimination of Heinze. Morse and Barney from the banking business the New York situation will become set tied.
 Thus far the only effect cf the dis turbances here has been aE unsettled market. especially in cOpper sharps- TO-day-s trading opened weak with eoppeTs generally bower Copper Range started at fl. of 1Iz- North Butte at 35. ntT H.: Utah 2Tss .oT a.: and Greene Camanea 6IS. of l.

Bank Examiner Investigating.

New York, Oct 22.-State bank examiners to-day visited and started an examination of the accounts of the Knickerbocker Trust Co.
 The presidents of the trust com panies of this city met this morning at the office of Oakleigh Thorne, president of the Trust Go of Ameri- ca.
 At the Harlem branch of the Knickerbocker Trust Go there was a moderate sized crowd of persons waiting to take out their money Preparations had been made for them, however, and two paying tel lers soon were busy counting out money.
 w. F. Havemeyer, the newly elect ed president of the National Bank of North America, gave out the follow ing statement this morning:
 II can state with assurance that Charles w. Morse at present owes this bank nothing. The banks hold ings of Consolidated Steamship bonds are insignificant"

NO ACTION YET.
On the Conditions that Caused Death
 of William Lynehan.

Prosecutor Meigs was asked to- day if anything was being done re- garding the vote of the board of al- dermen requesting him to make an investigation into the catastrophe on Farm street the night of the re- publican rally, which resulted in the death of one citizen who was invited to attend the meeting held there, when the floor caved in and nearly 200 persons were precipitated into the cellar. MT Meigs replied that he was conducting an investigation, but that so far he had nothing to give out Just where the blame rests is something which the public would like to know. Many claim it should be fathered by the republican town committee, others think it is up to the building inspector and you meet several who feel that the owner of the building and contractor who had the job are not blameless. In any case it does seem that the public is entitled to a great deal more light on this matter than has yet ap- peared MT Larkin stated at the meeting of the aldermen Monday night that the cross beam of the floor was supported by very slender post. one end of which was rotten, and that the accident could have been avoided by placing a suitable sup port under the structure which would not cost over a dollar or two.
 The city is paying man $1,S00 a year for looking after such things and it does seem that he ought to be in possession of all the facts. To be sure he has made statement to the aldermen, but what does that amount to? Everybody knew the source of the trouble after the harm was done, but the question people want answer ed is who was responsible for it. If a thing like this can happen and blow over without even a hearing to get at the why and the wherefore of it what is there to deter repetition of it any day in the week. EveryboQy knows that nobody intended wrong doing, but just the same there is a feeling in the public mind that some one was grossly negligent and all good citizens are anxious to see the mystery cleared and the responsibility placed where it belongs.

RUN ON THE BANK
DepositOTs of the Knickerbocker Trust Company Drawing
 Out Funds
$S,O00,OOO M VAULTS

New York Oct 22.-There was a run. of depositors to withdraw money at the main offices of the Knicker- booker Trust company when it open ed for business this morning and also at the branch offices of the company at 66 Broadway and in 125th street. At the main office about 75 persons were in line and others were con- stantly arriving. Many of those who came to withdraw their money were women. At 66 Broadway there was considerable excitement when the Of flee opened for business. A line of about fifty persons had gathered and made their way to the paying tel ler's window to withdraw funds. Sec ond Vice-president Allen who was in charge of the down town office gave cut the following statement:
 There is nothing to be alarmed about. We have $S000,OOO of cash ill the vaults and are prepared to meet all demands. The company is perfectly solvent.'
 MT Allen said that the fears or alarm created by MT Barney's retire ment from the presidency of the con- pany will soon be allayed.
 Shortly after the main office of the knickerbOcker Trust company at 34th street opened for business, depositors began to arrive in still greater num- bers and at 1920 more than 150 peo- pie were in line at the paying tellcr's window. Many depositors came in carriages and the carriage line extend- ed for over a block from the bank.
 There was short run on the Bronx branch of the Knickerbocker Trust company when it opened for busi- ness to-day. It was promptly stopped by the arrival of two wagons from which were unloaded in view of the waiting depositors big bundles of specie and currency.

PENSIONERS DECREASE.
Loss of 18,600, but Money Paid is
 Greater,

Washington, Oct 22-The de- crease of 1S,600 in the number of pensioners on the rolls at the end of the fiscal year 1907 as compared with the year previous is the feature of the annual report of Pension Commission CT Warner just issued. This is the greatest decrease in the history of the pension bureau.
 The total number of pensioners on June 30, 1907, was 967,371, and the pension roll was $140,S5O,S ,SS0. This is greater by $4,613,131 over the val ue of the roll for the year previous, and is explained by the higher rates of pensions provided for by the act of February, 1907, under which act there had been enrolled June 30 of the present year 116,239 pensioners. The number of Spanish war pension CTS was 24,077.
