pressing creditor and the only one which
made trouble for him.
Some of the stocks in which Mr.. Morse
is heavily interested have more than
doubled in value since the banks failure,
notably American Ice, which sold for
some time around $40 share and is now
worth $3.50. Mr.. Morse has many thous-
ands of shares of this stock, and the in
crease in it's market value makes him
richer by considerably more than 500, OOO
Another stock he is heavily interested in
The Butterick Co.--has also nearly dou-
bled in value.
Nearly all of his bank stocks have also
advanced, even his holdings in institu-
lions which went to the WALL as their af-
fairs are turning out much better than
was expected. Yesterday he expressed
the confident belief that tho National
Bank of North America would be reor-
gained and again made a going concern.
Receiver Hanna has a suit for $500 0O0
pending against all the directors of the
bank, but it is not believed this will ever
be pressed. in view of the fact that there
is enough money at hand and in sight to
pay off all the depositors in full.

Nearly All His Stocks Have
Increased In Value
Has a Clear Slate With the
Bank Of North America
And Is Confident It Will Again Be
Opened to Business.

New York, May 3.-CharleS w. Morse
spent the happiest day yesterday he
has had since the financial upheaval
of last October. In the last month and
a half ne has made some money, and
the steady rise of the stock market has
added many hundreds of thousands of
dollars to the value of his shares.
He now has an absolutely clean fl
nancial slate with the National Bank
of North America and yesterday two
suits against him for $64S,O00 We're dis
continued by order of Charles A. Han
no, receiver for the bank.
To the general public the chief inter-
est in connection with Mr.. Morse's
rehabilitation lies in the fact that not
only will the depositors of this bank
be paid in full, but there will be bal
ance of anywhere from $1.2000O0 to 81
00C. geo for division among the stock
holders At one time since the failure
of the National Bank of North Ameri-
ca stock was rated as worth only $40
a share. but its present value is close
to $50. and it may be worth nearly 5000
to the stockholders
Receiver Hanna will pay q % per
cent dividend to the depositors early
this week. The total deposits are about
81 200. 900, and the dividend distribution
will amount to $3.50, 900. This is the first
dividend to be paid since the failure.
1t was decided upon by Receiver Han
ma before the settlement with Mr..
Morse was reached, and as a result of
an unlocked for influx of money and
securities which can be easily convert
ed into cash a second dividend distri-
button will speedily follow the first.
Tho discontinuance of the suits was the
result of a settlement made with the re-
ceiver on Friday by Mr.. Morse through
his counsel Eugene p. Carver. The set

CAPITAL CHAT.
The Young Orators Of
the Present Senate
Some Of Them Are CIassed as
Recaicitrant Colts.
They Kick Over the Traces When
the Whip Falls.

Washington, D. c., May 3.-(SpeciaD
The colts in the Senate have had a
nice trot around the field and find
themselves back in the corral. There
are something like a, dozen of them
nearly all young orators from the
West, who are convinced that they
came down to Washington, commits
stoned to take the leadership of the
upper legislative branch of Con-
gress. Every little While, whenever q
measure of some party significance
was brought up, the colts have been
caperng around and making things
as troublesome as they could, only to
be refined in finally by strong hands
One of the spirited young colts is
Senator Borah of Idaho, eloquent and
undoubtedly capable. He took it
upon himself to do Senator Foraker
of Ohio, who was championing the
cause of the negro soldiers discharged
because of alleged completely in the
Brownsville affray. There are only
300 or AGO negroes in all Idaho and
accordingly Mr. Borah felt that he
could take that stand without en-
dangering the political career of him
self Or of any Of his Idaho colleagues
His speech was an able arraignment
of Senator Foraker but none the less
did not paralyze or pulveriZe the
Ohio Senator. The latter, on the
other hand, is going about his duties
as USUAL smiling significantly when
Borah is mentioned, and saying quiet
ly that he proposes to answer Borah
and all the others at the same time
He thinks he can economic effort in
that way.
When the President pitched in for
four big battIeships, the old Senate
eadors were of the same opinion
that the House had expressed. The
construction of two ships would be a
plenty 1t was all the country could
afford. The leaders secuted the talk
of prospective war, including Senator
Lodge the Presidents closest per-
sonal friend in public life. But the
colts saw new opportunity and
they began to prance and caper.
The President sent for most Of them
and. of course, they were not only
willing but glad to vote for four big
and expensive battleships. They
would give the old Senate leaders a
dickens of time. The President
had asked several of the older Sena-
tors to take hold of the cause but
they declined and reluctantly he had
to ask Senator Beverage That
pleased Mr.. Beveridge greatly. He
makes no concealment of the fact

Others Injured,

New York May 3.-An early morning
No. Il Humboldt street thickly popu-
lated section of Brooklyn, caused the
death of six persons and the serious in
jury of four others. Every member of
one family, including the mother and
four children, are among the dead. There
were mary thrilling rescues by police
and firenen and it was due to the brave
work of these guardians of the public
that the death list was not larger. A
half dozen or more persons WHO were
trapped in the upper stories were saved
by jumping into life nets. The financial
loss is estimated at $4,000 Those who
met death are:

way before 1t was discovered and three
policemen who arrived on the scene
about this time repeatedly risked their
lives in dragging people from the lower
foors.
When the firemen came the fire had ex-

of the house, where the fire escaps were
located. and the terror stricken inmates

was just about to take chances in a
leap of four stories to the pavement
beneath when a hand was thrust down
to him from the roof of an adjoining
building and he was pulled to safety.
A score of women employed in the
hotel were in the upper rooms in the
rear part of the hotel. Most of them
escaped injury, but some in their fren-

first excitement, many We're accounted

That there are several bodies still in
