Guided.

had been to the subtreasury for sew
eral days. He wanted to see Assistant

ence at that moment with Mr.. Bantz.

did not. He also had promised to
make disclosures of some sort concern
ing the alleged irregularities and care
lessness in handling money at the sub
treasury unless he was restored to
duty.
At his residence last night Mrs. Fitz.
gerald said her husband had decided

bureau examined half a dozen employees
of the subtreasury-men who had been
in and out of Fitzgerald's cage on the

ground, throwing little additional light

STOCK MARKET

Renewal Of Drastic Liquidation Sends
Holdings Pouring Into Wall Street
and Prices Go Down
Accordingly
By Associated Press.

NEW YORK. March S.-The stock
renewal of drastic liquidation, Stocks
semed to be poured upon the market
from all available sources with no de-
mand to check the renewed plunge in
prices.
Discouraged holders of stocks on
margins sent in orders on large scale
to throw over holdings and accept
losses. Commission houses also closed
out accounts on a large scale where
insufficient responses had been made
for additional margins. The most sem
sational movement was in Missouri Pa
cific, which slumped Ia, owing to
doubts over the maintenance of the
dividend.
Union Pacific was sold in enormous
volume in spite of the deduction of the
5 per cent dividend from the price, and
added 2 3-8 to the amount of the de-
cline from yesterdays closing. United
States Steel common broke through 40.
The preferred receded to within shade
of par.
Prices Recover
The liquidation spasm quieted and an
extensive covering movement against
the bears caused recovery in prices.
The demand at the higher level fell
away, however, to insignificant pro-
portions. The bears renewed their at
tack, which centered upon United
States Steel, carrying that stock down
to below 80.
Pennsylvania as readily sold at a de-
cline of 1 SIS. Pennsylvania extended
it's decline to 21-2 and United States
Steel to 2 Ia. This weakened the whole
market again to about the lowest of
the day. The late weakness, however,
was not so general as during the morn
ing and the force of the selling sub
sided to some extent in the late deal
ings.
There was, however, no important
rally.

Importations to Iron Range Throw Up
Their Jobs.
Three hundred strikebreakers ar
rived in Virginia one day last week on
a special train from New York. They
were met at the station by the strik-
ers and escorted to the union hall,
where they all decided to throw up
their jobs. They said they had TAX
en- tickets ON the understanding that
there was no strike on.
About an equal number of men were
smuggled into Hibbing and Eveleth at
the same time, but the company got
them out to the mines before the strik-
ers' pickets had chance to talk with
them.
The whole question of the iron mine
strike is now whether the company
will be able to secure a sufficient num-
Der of men to operate the mines. The
strikers say it will be impossible to
do so, but the company contends that
it will be easily accomplished. Some
of the men brought in by the COM
pany go to work readily enough, but
there are many deserters in the ranks
of the nOnuniOn men.
