HANNA SUES MORSE.
This Time for More Than
100000 on Loans.

NEW YORK. March 10.-Receiver
Charles A. Hanna, of the National
Sank of North America, has begun an
other suit against Charles w. Morse.
This one is in the State Supreme Court
for the recovery of S405. 1852 alleged
10 have been obtained by Morse
through dummy loan transactions. This
makes an aggregate of seas. 600 which
the receiver seeks to from
Morse individually, n there is also
the $730,000 suit in which Morse Is
named as one of several defendant
directors.
The papers indicate that Morse was
particular in the selection of his dunn
mics, if the makers OF the notes really
did serve in hat humble capacity.
There are no clerks or underlings on
the list. Among others named are Cal
vim Austin, president of the Consoli-
dated Steamship Company; n. H.
Campbell. treasurer of the same conl-
pany; Wesley oler. president of the
American Ice Company: Primrose &
Braun, Morse's brokers; the Arizona
Smelling Company. and James T.
Morse. the Uncle jim from Maine,
who figured In the Morse-Dodge di-
vorce tagle.
Mr.. Morse himself denies that he was
the beneficiary of or is in any way re-
sponsible for any of the loans named
in this action.
The complaint alleges, in the first
place, that Mr.. Morse. as the control
ing stakeholder of the National Bank
Of North America, dominated and on
trolled all the operations of the bank
and the action of the directors.

AND NOTES
FOR INVESTORS.

Washington seems to be the source
of the bull gossip, just as it was the
centre of pessimism a week g Sim
mered down, rumors taxi the form of a
definite understanding whereby Wall
Street makes it's usual contribution to
campaign expenses and receives legis-
lative protection in return. This is re-
garded as a bull argument by many
Prominent traders say, Sell the
market, if you want to make hand
some profits" They claim that a pro-
nounee drop is in sight. and the recent
sharp advances cannot be sustained,
and that news of a very different char
acter is coming that will make Il final
onslaught in prices.
Although daily announcements to the
effect that copper properties now
closed will reopen and at once resume
production are being made, the gem
eral copper situation shows very little
improvement on the surface. Tho de-
cline of one-half cent a pound last
week, and the fact that there is but u
very light demand either here or
abroad does not prophesy a speedy re-
turn to normal conditions. Many of
the properties now announcing their
reopening do not intend to ship the
metal to the market at once, but will
store it until the market turns.
For the first time in many weeks
outsiders appeared to be interested

Debenture stockholders of the Chi

mittee has consented to act, if re-
quested TO do so by a substantial ma

All Around.

PITTSBuRG, March 10.-The Home
sted mill. the largest of h Unitei
States Steel Corporation, is running
practically full with n exception. OH
cials of the Pressed Steel Car Com
pany deny the report that the plant at
MeKees Rocks viii close down. Ono
Of the largest Independent tin plate

operated a trifle over half capacity,
started yesterday morning to operate

the American Sheet and Tin Plate Com
pany started up this morning.
The Jones and Laughlin Steel Com
pany has ordered work resumed on its

stopped last fall. The company or
dered all of its idle molders to report
at it's No. 8 foundry today.
Increased orders received by the re-
ceivers of the Westinghouse Electric

cessitated putting on more men. An
order for f25 miles of pipe ranging from

placed here this week.
HARRISBURG. Pa, March 1o.-ln-
dustrial conditions are showing an inn
provement hereabouts. At the Penn

Ing repaired.
The Harrisburg Pile and Pipe Bend

OFF DAYS ARE BAD.

President Joe O'Brien, of the A. A.,
was in Cincinnati the other day and in
discussing off days said:
81 am not in favor of off days for a
ball club, l think they do more harm
than good. [ believe that a team docs
better work when playing every day
than when it's schedule is frequently
broken up by open dates. Ball players
are Keyed up to a certain pitch, which
is best maintained by keeping them at
their work.
