NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-There was a further
revival today of the unsettled speculative sem
timent which caused the heavy break in prices
early yesterday. The strong rally which de-
veloped late yesterdy not extended. On
the other hand there were signs of supporting
measures for time on declines, which served
to steady the tone. When the steadiness was
secured the market fell into neglect The re-
suit was to invite the renewed attack winch
caused the weak closing. A disturbing factor
was the violent break in Tennessee Copper
without explanation in new developments. rms
stock has sprung into prominence in the spec
ulation in the last few weeks The collapse
in the stock today made bad impression as
a possible index of1unhealthy speculative con-
ditions in the market. The general weakness
developed after the incident. The comment
was caused by the report of an increase of H.
262 in the number of surplus freight cars IN
the two weeks ended November IL.
There was at the same time a decrease OF
u SIS in the number of bad ORDER cars in

ON Him, he SAYS
Old Maid Sister Had Been
PaImed Off on Him.

DENVER, May 1.-Annulment of
marriage is asked by Richard Will
ton, Of No. 1,725 East TWenty-eighth
street, whose reasons therefor ap-
pear in the following story, related
by himself
Three years ago Wilton held a
good position as clerk in an Omaha
store. He was fairly prosperous. In
the same social set was Jessie Hig-
gins, young and pretty girl, who
apparently was as much in love with
him as he with her. Their mar
riage was agreed upon and the
young girls parents readily gave
their consent to the union Their new
home was made ready for them and
they were preparing to move into it
as soon as the wedding was duly
celebrated
The night before the ceremony Will
ton was the guest at a dinner given
in his honor Wine flowed freely.
The young man was properly cele-
brating his desertion of bachelorhoOd.
Three days later Wilton woke up
in his home he had prepared for him
self and his bride. At first he thought
it was the morning after the ban
quet and that his bachelor friends,
as joke, had carried him to the
house where he was to make his
future home. The sun was high in
the sky and Wilton arose to make
preparations for his wedding
He had no more than started to
dress, he says, when Hannah IIig-
gins, the older sister of his finance,
walked into the room. Mortified at
the Intrusion upon his privacy Wilton
asked what she wanted.
Nothing" he says she replied 81

Tells Him She's His Wife

Dumfounded by her expression
Wilton says, he did not know what
to make of it. Finally, he says, he
told her he must dress so as not tC
delay the wedding.
'The wedding" she answered linn
according to his story, "why we were
married night before last"
Bit by bit his benumbed faculties took
in the situation. Even then he coult
not understand what had happened
how he had secured the older sister
ten years his senior, and for his wife
in place of his pretty and attractive
tiance. Some of his friends enlight-
ened him, he claims now, and char.
ges in his petition, that he was under
the influence of liquor at the time Of
the ceremony and that the old maic
sister was knowingly substituted by
the family for the girl whom he ex-
pected to become his bride
Wilton alleges he left his wife with
in two days after the ceremony, OF
as soon as he had sobered sufficient
ly to realize his situation. He came
to Denver to escape the jibes of his
friends as we'll as to be free from q
wife he did not love.
He alleges that since the ceremony
he has been paying $40 per month tc
the support of the woman who was
his wife in name only. To his court
petition he attaches the receipts from
his wife, received for the various
sums of money forwarded to her.
