SENSATION CREATED
IN STOCK EXCHANGE
ROCK ISLAND COMMON HAS
SUDDEN RISE AND FALL
Jumped From sos TO 81 and Then
RcCcted Back TO 50-EXcitine
Times in Buying Centers.

New York. Dec. 27.-The skyrocket
rise of Rock Island common stock
from so SIS to 81, and its immediate
recession TO so furnished the stock ex-
change financial centers throughout
the country today with one of the big
gest sensations of the closing year.
Everywhere reports of a corner were
heard and there was intense excite
ment on the floor, resulting in the fall
ing off of the general list several,
points. some sustaining a loss of three.
The fact that the control of the rail-
road system was not in the ownership
of the common stock was the only
anchor that saved the. situation from
growing worse than it did. This fact
precluded the possibility of the buy
ing being conducted by persons try
ing to suddenly gain control of the
property. There was very heavy SELL
ing throughout the brief period of
the exciting activity, one sale of 1900
shares being at the highest mark of
the day, 81 points. The first sale OF
the day was 500 shares at so SIS and
Immediately thereafter heavy orders
came in apparently from all sides.

Managua. Dec. 27.-The new presi-
dent of Nicaragua. Jose 4aadriz, is
taking hold of affairs with strong
hand. zelaya left him the legacy of
an empty treasury, and soon after
President Madriz had publicly an
nounced. in effect, that the country
was practically on the verge Of bank
ruptcy, the arrest of Joaquin Passos,
Zslaya's son-in-law. and Ernesto Mar
tinez. Zelaya's last finance minister,
was ordered. They are now in the
hands of the authorities charged with
displacement of funds. failure to
register several bonds, and the circu-
lation OF unsigned paper money.
Trials as minister general, is pre-
pairing a decree establishing a COM
mission to revoke the franchises under
which scores Of monopolies given to
individuals by Zelaya have been op-
Grated.
These monopolies poured into Ze-
laya's purse vast sums of money.
While they were ostensibly in the
hands of others, it was to the former
president that the greater portion or
the returns was transferred. Passos Is
locked upon as the creator of these
monopolies and the rummy utilization
by Zelaya to cover his large stock
| interests therein. His arrest has been
encOuragingly received.
Senatos Ramiriz, Zelaya's chief of
telegraph. also has been arrested. He
is charged with having sent tele-
gram in the name of President Mad
riZ ordering the government troops to
abandon their strong positions. Cen
erals Anastasio Oraiz Benito, Chav-
agria and Pauline Cooley. banished by
