NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-The most
important event in the financial dis
trict today was the failure Of a prom
inent commission house whose oper-
ations are believed to have been
largely responsible for last Satur'
days sensational stock market. the
failure excited no great amount OF
surprise and was without very seri'
GUS effect on prices. BY its own ad'
mission the firms affairs are badly
tangled and the fear was expressed
that other Wall street interests may
be unwittingly involved. Business on
the Stock Exchange was In moderate
volume and with fairly firm under
tone before the suspension was an
nounced in the early afternoon. IL
then became unsettled and feverlsh
and remained SO. for the balance OF
the day. There seems to be mucn
conflict OF opinion as to whether or
not industrial and mercantile condi-
lions show genuine Improvement.
The days few railroads returns
included that OF Ontario & Western

GRAY IN THE RACE TO STAY
HIS NAME WILL NOT BE WITH
DRAWN AT DENVER.
Announcement by Josiah Marvel,
Manager of Delaware Judges
Forces.

DENVER. July 6-"Judge Gray's
maine has not been withdrawn, and un-
der no circumstances will it be with
drawn" said Josiah Marvel, manager of
the Gray presidential forces.> This was
the answer given to the persistent report
circulated this morning that Judge Gray
had felegraphed last night to those in
charge of his interests instructing them
explicitly not to permit his name to go
before the convention. No such message
has been received, and Judge Gray has
remained absolutely silent as to the presi-
dency, neither furthering nor retarding
the work of his friends in any way. The
Gray men were, therefore. more conf
dent than ever today, despite the appa-
rent strong tide for Bryan, as they claim
ed that reports from incoming delega-
tions gave distinct reality to their hopes
Judge Gray's name will be presented
to the convention by Irving T. Handy"
said Mr.. Marvel, "and seconded by Peter
A. O'BOyle, who was chairman of the
Pennsylvania state convention. We will
also have seconds from two other states
AS to the vice presidency talk for Judge
Gray we have absolutely nothing to say.
managers to permit Gray's name to be
considered for the second place, but we
insist that we are not urging a man for
two places at the same time.
The Gray managers have been saying
wait until the delegates arrive" They
now say that these arrivals are increasing
the Gray strength. They point out that
instructed delegatiOns-men committed to
Bryan-are coming to them and saying
that conditions have SO changed since the
instructions were given that If free they
would support Gray because of Mr..
Bryan's recent statements of Grays
strength as a conservative candidate. AS
a specific instance of this sentiment three
of the Tennessee delegates, Messrs King,
Miller and McMahon who are here in ad-
vance of their colleagues, have visited the
Gray headquarters and have said that il
Mr.. Bryan had given his Endorsement to
Gray a month ago instead of within the
last few days the Tennessee delegation
would be for Gray The Gray managers
are not asking any of the instructed dele
gates to waver, but they say sentiment
among the instructed men is that condi-
tions have changed and they say they
wish they were free from Instructions

Attending physicians found no trace of
poison in the examination of Neriza.
Members of his family declare that he
had eaten nothing that might cause his
condition. But the efforts of physicians
to assure him that he was not poisoned
were futile and he passed into a coma
tose condition and died after hours of
suffering. The case is one that puzzled
physicians of the Alexian Brothers Hos
pital staff, and many of them will attend
the inquest today. while alienists also
will be present to explain the cause of
Neriza's death.
