SEBASTAPOL, June 14.-All hope
of saving the lives of the crew of
the Russian submarine Kambala,
which was sunk in collision with the
battleship Rostislav during the
maneuvers Friday night, or of re-
covering the wreck, owing to the
great depth OF the water, is gone.
Two divers have died in the attempts
to rescue the men, on account OF the
immense pressure. Others have tried
repeatedly and heroically to pass
chains around the wreck. but finally
came to the surface utterly exhausted
having accomplished nothing. All
operations have been abandoned.
The chances of saving the lives of
the imprisoned men were recognized
from the first as very remote, al
though under normal conditions the
submarines have an air capacity of
three days The Kambala is weak
structurally. and for this reason can
not make a descent of more than 100
feet.
The Kambala went down in $50
feet of water and only untrustworthy
bulkheads stood between the men
and death after the boat was struck
by the Rostislav's ram.
The disaster occurred five miles
from Seabastapol. Four men were
saved, including the commander,
Lieutenant Aquilonoff, who was Civ
ing orders through the speaking tube
to the helmsman just before the
collision.

estate was turned over to the Com
mission of women. An enormous
crowd witnessed the ceremonies.
Yesterday was fay day and a num-
ber of the national emblems were to
be seen flying from all public build
ings and many business houses. On
the new court house, flag was
thrown to the winds for the first
time over that building. In the
schools observation was made of the
occasion.
1t was the one hundred and thirty
second anniversary of the Stars and
Stripes as the national emblem of the
United States. From the thirteen
original stars arranged in a circle on
blue background with the accom-
panying thirteen stripes of red and
white alternating, ii has grown to its
present proportions of forty-six stars
with the same original thirteen
stripes. This year for the first time
was celebrated the addition of the
forty-sixth star. which stands for the
new state of Oklahoma. This star
was added last Fourth of July and
makes and average of an additional
star to the flag every four years
since 1871.
1t Is interesting to note these yari-
Gus additions, as shown in the ac-
com panying table. Starting with the
original thirteen states grouped
around the Atlantic seaboard, the
other thirty-three stars, which stand
for the admission of other states
have been added to the flag on the
Fourth of July following their ad-
mission TO the union.

ON A PErRIFIEp MAN.
A Cardiff Giant SwindIe That Came to
 a Sudden End.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York 6un
 Not very long after Barnum's Cardiff giant went into history some young men appeared at Lancaster, Mo-, with the pet riied body of man which they said they found on their fathers farm in Iowa while blowing" remarked Judge Edward Mckee, of the First district. who was here today. ''The young men were ex- hibiting their petrifed man in tent. charging 10 cents admission. To the large and keenly interested crowd they explained that while working In the field one day the blow struck something hard, supposedly a rock. The plowman stoop- ed down to remove the obstruction, but could not He called his brother. By their united efforts with shovels they un- covered the rock, which turned out to be a petrified man, perfect in every outline. A grent many people came to the grave and Identified the remains as a neighbor who had gone off to the war, returned home. and mysteriously disappeared A mark under the eye and some peculiar scars In the back were the main means of Identification, the speaker said. and there was no doubt that the soldier had died and turned to stone.
 "A large man who had been listening thoughtfully spoke up when the descrip- tion was finished
 You are sure that's Jim - he asked.
 Certainly said the speaker. My father knew him well; he has positively identified him.

 No. sir it's a mystery
 Then we'll hold an inquest
 Tn response to the amazed exclamation from the owners of the petrified man the inquisitor explained that he was the prosecuting attorney of the county and that 1t was his duty to see that inquests were held in all case where death was mysterious. The boys protested, but in vain. They tried to get out of town with their exhibit, but were arrested and put under bond. The petrified man was laid out in state and the coroner summoned. He brought a mallet along. The crowd was immense, for this time the show was free.

 Too much iron in the system
 Without another word he picked up his mallet and left the death chamber. The petrifed man was patched up and sold to travelling speculator for $50, which just about covered the costs of the inquest and the attorneys fees. The last heard of the petrified man he was being shown in the Ozarl1s as the remains of a Persian king or duke who had been slain several thousand years ago by his sub jects, who thought he was hard"

A VISIT REvIvEs ROMANCE.
Bryan Distributed Wedding Invitations
 for Present Ell Paso Host.
-ro., tha san Antonin Ernreaa

From the San Antonio Express.
 El Paso, Tex-William Jennings Bryan
 was the guest of a couple in Fl Paso for whom he distributed wedding invitations back in 1881 in Jacksonville, H. He was a young law student and his love romance with Miss Mary Baird, who later became Mrs. Bryan, was just beginning.
 MT. Bryan delivered a lecture Sunday night before the Fl Paso Chaataqua and was the guest of the Rev. and Mrs. Henry Easter. Doctor Easter is rector of St. Clements Episcopal church in this city, and 1t was when the reverned doctor, then a young hardware clerk, and Mrs Easter, then Miss Mary Wing. were married that Mir Bryan, law student, distant rela- tive of the bride, carried around the wed- ding invitations and distributed them from house to house. Mrs. Easter has a photo of the young law student, with high white tile and the college costume appropriate for that day, taken about the time he performed the service for the bridal pair. MT. Bryan looked at the pie ture Sunday with a great deal of inter- est, as 1t was the only one at present known to be in existence.
 At the time of the wedding Mfr Bryan was living with pr. Hiram Jones of Jacksonville and was attending the Illi- nois College and studying to become a lawyer. At the same time he was pay Ing court to Miss Mary Baird, a Prairie Springs girl. who was attending the Jack sonville Female College. Later the same Miss Baird became Mrs. Bryan.
 Mrs. Easter says that MT. Bryan was a deep student even at the early age when he was attending the Illinois Col lege and that he read literature that was deep and not very attractive to the aver age college boy. He was debater of great ability and speaker of renown among the college fraternities. He was popular, she says, as a social light and danced well an the dances that were

NICHOLAS WALL
 STREET LETTER Prospect of High Money Is Distressing Speculators THE MOVEMENT OF GOLD Prospect in Iron and Steel Is Growing Gradually Better-Present Quarter Expected to Show Up Well.
 Mrs. Hartman.
THE MOVEMENT OF GOLD

New York. October 30-"Wise' opinion in Wall street is getting altogether too unanimous on the money situation. Ev- erybody you talk to, that is everybody who speculates in stocks. is in a state of more or less acute distress over the prospects of tight money. They are full of profound views as to the effect this impending money period is going to have on the stock market. A majority of those who talk most and loudest on the subject turn out to be sold-out bulls or else pro- fessional bears who are always gloomy and who can never look at anything eX- cept through blue glasses. Both of these clements are working for lower prices, the bears seeking a place to cover their shorts at profit and the bulls for place
 in which to buy back their lines.
 Now as matter Of fact, money is not tight. nor is it scarce particularly. It is neither as plentiful nor as cheap as 1t was last summer, or as it ruled dur ing the whole of 1908 We are not likely to see any such money again for a long time ahead, not until the next big indus
 
 is not dear at and per cent. Legiti- mate business can afford to pay that Spectators would like to see 1t down to 1 and per cent again so that they might borrow money with which to buy stocks and make a big margin of profit between the cost of capital so obtained and the returns thereon from dividend paying securities. The market Is still full of good things, and people with credit have no trouble in borrowing all the money they want to buy with.
 Earnings of railroads and a majority of industrials are all that could be asked and should satisfy the reasonable man. purely speculative class may be excused for looking askance at stocks like Union Pacific. Delaware and Hudson. Reading, Canadian Pacific and issues of that sort.
 They are getting into the rich mans class. Only men of money can afford to buy them. They will in time find their place in the strong boxes of investors and will be traded in upon the stock ex- changes in very much less volume. Spec ulative interest will naturally and inev- itably turn to lower priced stocks. Steel IS likely to continue to be a popular favorite for a long time. There is a larger volume of it than anything else on the list and it Is selling at price very attractive to those who are infiu- enced by statements of earnings.
 I was talking a day or two ago with a very prominent international banker whose sources of information are the best and whose judgment has won for him the respect of verybody with whom he has business relations. This man has a very live and personal interest in the placing of enormous sums of money and Is In touch with every business and in- dustrial development and condition.

Amalgamated Copper Is being most in-
 dustriousy and consistently tipped for
 big advance, not on merit but on mys-
 tery The commonly expressed Judgment
 of Amalgamated Is that it sells for about
 double what 1t Is worth. The alleged reason for the bull tip on the stock Is
 that before long a large number or inde-
 pendent copper companies will be taken over into the Amalgamated, and that
 when this Is done it will be possible for that company to produce all the metal that can be sold as cheaply as the Gug- genheims, Senator Clark or Phelps, Dodge & Co., Indeed, rumor goes so far as to connect at least two of these factions with the impending merger. The street is openly skeptical of tho reports, yet traders complain that they can make no money on the bear side of Amalgamated The same may be true also of St. Paul. Nine out of ten operators think St. Paul is the dearest stock on the list. yet every time they go short of it they get their fingers burned.
 The W. c. Brown management Of New | York Central is making a most excellent | impression on Wall street. He seems to be making good. and to be lifting the | great system out of a. rut into which 1t l had fallen It is breaking all records in | the volume of both freight and passenger | business, and every department Is run l ming at a minimum of friction From an | investment and speculative point of l view, Central stock is growing in esteem. | It is holding all its old friends and gain | ing new recruits.
 | Wall street is seldom moved by emo 1 tions of sympathy The interest 1t takes | in the struggles of John R. Walsh of l Chicago to market his railroad may l therefore be cited as most Unusual. The 1 street Is watching the play with senti- ] mental regard. The spectacle of an old 1 man doing giant work to re-establish his l fortunes on the eve of penitentiary im- 1 prisonment appeals from its pathetic l side
 Those who know Mrs. Mary Averill l Hartman, widow of the late E. H. liar l riman are not in the least surprised that l she should have taken over into her own l hands the actual management of the 1 huge Hartman estate with its diversified 1 interests. Mrs. Hartman has always l been a business woman and close 1 confdante and adviser in his amairs. 1 She was worth half a million dollars when he married her, girl of Ogdens- 1 burg N Y.
