STOCK MARKET STRONG.

NEW YORK, Mayo, The daily
volume of transactions in stock ran
to over a million shares oh two days
of this week, Prices were the highest
since the panic of last October. This
marked elimination of the2rise and
prices afterward reacted to some ex-
tent and the voume of the market
shrank, The exhaustion of the short
interest in the rise conduced to this
result. The effect of the success of
the Pennsylvania bond sale waned
somewhat. The quarterly report Of
the y, S. Steel Corporation was not
of cheering effect, The heavy expanp
sion in surplus of idle freight cars in
the half month to April Is was not
liked. Money continued easy in spite
of gold exports and recall of govern
ment deposits and crop news was,
favorable.

Providing for Building for the
Ambassadors
CULBERsON's OBJECTION
Culbersofi Raised an 66jsction and
Based it Mainly on the Pact That
the Subject Had Not Received
Proper Consideration.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The pol
icy sought to be established by the
government of providing and equip
ping buildings for its ambassadors in
the foreign capitals received setback
in the Senate today where the diplo.
matte bill was under consideration.
Through q point of order by Cul-
berson, an amendment to the house
bill appropriating 100000 for such a
building at Paris was stricken out.
Culberson based his objections main
ly on the fact that the subject had not
been properly considered. An amend
ment was placed in the bill by the
committee on the appropriation as
the solicitations of committee on the
foreign relations and the secretary of
state and was an object of considef-
able discussion. The billswas passed.
following the eulogy on the life;
character and public services of the
late Senators Mallory and Bryan were
delivered and as further mark of
respect the Senate adjourned.

BUTTE, May IA coroner's jury
tonight brought in the verdict that
Engineer Charles Hale and Charles
Ming, who lost their lives in the
blowing up Of the Burlington express
near here, came to their death as
result OF wreck caused by dynamite
The discovery Of the theft Of 48 sticks
OF dynamite from the powder house
near the scene Of the wreck has af-
forded the officers a clue which is
now being run down Just what the
clue is the authorities refuse to state
and give it as though it is intimated
hoodlums are suspected. The officers
are at a loss to find a motive for the
'wrecking Of the train and inclined to
the opinion that the dynamiting might
have been done with the idea of caus-
mo excitement. Fireman Ehle is in
4 divine c,.adition tonight and little
hone i ex,ressad s.. his recovery. A
number of passengers were ss'eg
bruised but none sustaind serious in
Jury a score Of railroad detectives
are on the scene and every coficeiv-
able kind of rutfior is being run to
earth. Despite the fact that the en-.
gine crew OF the first engine declare
they saw a fash light precede the sx.
plosior and that the passengers and
Others who rushed to the scene imme.
diately after the explosion declared
they eoald plainly smell the odor Of
powder, many express the opinion
that a defective rail caused the wreck
ng Of the boiler Of the big moeuI
md caused it to explode. Men fa-
nlliar with dynamite declare that the
absence OF any hole in the ground Is
evidence that dynamite was not used
This theory is secuted BY the railroad
'flcials who have offered $4,000 for
ne apprehension of the perpetrators

Chief Gritzmacher lncIlnes 10 the
Theory Thatthe Murder Was
Committed by One Man
IS SUPPORTED BY EVIDENCE
The Only Other Development Today
Was Telephone Message From
Halsey Saying Tramp Had Passed
Through There Selling Jewelry.

PORTLAND, May 2.=Chiei Of
Police Gritzmacher inclines to the
theory that Nathan Wolff, the pawti-
broker, who was murdered Friday
evening was killed by one man. His
Theory is supported by the evidence
OF M, l. Dubois, cook employed in
the restaurant near VOLTS pawnshop.
Dubois declares that shortly before
o:3O, while waiting for that hour to
arrive to begin work, he stopped in
front OF VOLTS show window for FIVE
minutes AT this time, the front door
was wide open and man whose de-
scriplion Dubois has furnished to the
police, was behind the counter. Du-
boiS says the man had apparently
been moving and come to ali abrupt
stop and stated directly at Dubois in
a startled mantfer Dubois had no
reason to suspect She man was not
employed in the place and thought
nothing Of the circumstance until he
learned that Wolff had been MUIR
'derod. Dubois says he would tccog-
niae the man. The detectives have
worked ceaselessly since the crime
was committed but few clews have
been found. One which bids fair to |
Ibe productive of results was the
laundry mark on the murderer's col
lar Several lanndries had customers
with a similar mark, but all are people
of good repute, The only other de-
velopment today was the telephone
message from Halsey was which
stated that tramp passed through
that place in the direction of Harris
burg selling cheap jewelry. This man
wore neither a collar nor necktie.
The police in the valley towns have
been requested to arrest this man.
