FORGOT PRESENCE OF MIND
Landlord O'Brlen of the Hcnshaw Ex-
periences Unnecessary Grief
in the storm.

4. j. O'Brien, proprietor of the Henshaw,
had a strenuous time getting home Thurs
day night during the storm. He missed the
last car and tried to secure a carriage, but
the storm had driven in every "all night"
driver, and as l.. c. Nash, superintendent
of the Omaha & Council Bluffs street rail-
way, came along they started out together.
Mr.. Nash had been TO the Douglas street
bridge to look after some trouble and was
on his way to the Harvey street barn to
send out some sweepers. They toiled to-
gether against the wind to Twentieth and
Farnam streets, when Mr.. O'Brien played
out and did not dare undertake the rest Of
the journey alone. Mr.. Nash told him that
he would soon send a sweeper west on the
Farnam street line and that he could ride
on that to his home on Twenty-seventh
street. O'Brien accepted the invitation and
when ready to get on the Farnam street
line the sweeper had to go to the Union
station. Here some trouble was encoun-
tered and it was just 8 a. m. when O'Brien
reached his home at Twenty-seventh and
Harvey streets, cold and stiff.
lie might have stayed in a warm room at
the Henshaw.

Mr.. Perkins whether he had knowledge OF

barrassment was threatened to an ins,itd-
ton in New York"

GOMEZ AND ZAYAS IN ROW

HAVANA. Jan. sO.-The relations be-
tween President Gomez and Vice President
Zayas became seriously strained today

cret police for the last ten years. Senior
Arnauto has been since the beginning Of the
first period of American Intervention, an
editor of a long succession Of publications,

Tennessee Coal and Iron company was
formed, said Mr.. Thorne. the syndicate
price was $40 a share. but its market
price was 80, and it went to 1S.
Mr.. Thorne testified that when the Ten
nessee company's stock was surrendered,
the owners received in return United States
Steel 5 per cent bonds on the basis of 119
par value for each share of the stock of
the Tennessee company. The steel cor
p|oratlon bonds were quoted by Mr.. Thorne
as being worth from 81 to 81 at the time
he received them, and being worth now
between 1O2 and 1O3.
Testimony of Mr.. Perkins.
When Mr.. Perkins took the stand, he
said:
THE acquisition of the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company by the United States
Steel corporation was never brought up or
preached in any way so far as my knowl-
edge goes, until perhaps the second or
third acute stage of the panic developed
in New York. and then it came up very
suddenly. because of the serious disturb
ance that existed in New York as a re-
suit of the great depreciation in market
value and the unmarketability of a great
many securities"
Mr.. Perkins said that there was a gem
eral feeling that 1t would be difficult for
any one TO express in a concrete statement
that II the Tennessee Coal and Iron stock
were taken out OF various loans, some way
1t would prevent a great many failures
and avert a spread Of the panic. Con-
tinuing, he said:
Finally some one made a suggestion
uvbgrh q ftoruvarda uyOrLRd plt that the ror-
poratlon might furnish its 5 per cent sec
ond mortgage bonds in lieu Of cash and in
this way put in lieu of these loans securities
that were marketable"
Mr.. Perkins told Of the visit to Washing
ton by Judge II IL. Gary and Henry c.
Frick for the purpose of seeing the presi-
dent.
