STOCK MAHkEraAFFEcTED.
General Weakness in Both New York
and London.

New York, May 6.-News of the SER
ious illness of King Edward caused
general weakness today on the stock
exchange, where declines of one to
nearly two points were registered thru
out the list. Selling was conducted
with view of discounting possible
heavy selling from London in the event
OF the kings death. The list was
later supported.
The London stock exchange was
much excited in the early hours by
conflicting rumors. one of which was
that the king had died. The market
opened weak, but the general tone soon
improved when the sensational report
was disproved. Weakness was con-
sidered purely sentimental.

ter after a. conference with several
Western governors who were in Wash
ington this week attending the gov
ernors' conference, has prepared bill

power He announced today that he
would present the bill to Congress on
Monday The bill provides that ANY
state may enter any unappropriated
public land located within its borders

the development of water power upon
making proof to the satisfaction of the
secretary of the interior that the land
sought to be entered is chiefly valu-
able for such purpose"
1t is provided further that the state
shall never ALLEVIATE the title to the

Police Still
Hunting For
Triple Murderer

New York, Jan. 21.-The big force
of detectives working to solve the
triple murder mystery which develop
ed on the East side of the city late
yesterday, continued today on the
theory that robbery was the motive
for the crime.
The authorities declared themselves
convinced that the apartment in which
the mutilated bodies of Salvador Seal
pone, a prosperous italian, his young
wife and a nurse, COncetta MARITIME,
were discovered must have been famil-
lar to the perpetrators of the crime, but
several hours work on the case today
failed to develop any clue to the identi-
ty of the criminals, although more
than three score friends of the family
were rounded up and closely question
ed.
Considerable sums of money and
valuable jewelry were left on the bodies
of the victims, although three trunks
in the apartment had been ransacked.
Whether valuables or documents of
some sort were sought is a question
the authorities We're puzzling over to-
day.
More than one person was concern
ed in the commission of the crime, the
police believe, and traces of feminine
hand in the search of the apartment
and its murdered occupants led to the
theory that the criminals had wo-
man accomplish.

STRIPED BY RUMoRS
That Coal and Iron Pool May Drag
Stock Exchange Before Legislature.

New York, Jan. 21.-Further investi-
cation into the workings of the Co
lumbus and Hooking Coal and Iron
pool which caused the failure of three
brokerage firms. is being made by
the Stock Exchange authorities. The
trend of gossip heard in the street"
indicates that officials of the Exchange
are n,uch stirred at adverse criticism
hurled against that institution and
are not a little alarmed at threats of
carrying the matter to Albany.
Hugh F. Criss. head member of the
insolvent firm of Roberts. Hall & Criss
of Cincinnati and manager of the
Hooking pool on the Exchange, was
in conference with his lawyers today
and later with President Thomas and
Secretary Ely of the Exchange Mr.
Crisis attitude is that of a man who
has not been fairly dealt with by the
pool. From limitations given out it
is inferred that certain of his asso-
ciates in that venture who repudiated
the use of their names and failed to
honor Crisis demard on Wednesday,
are in for very uncomfortable time.
The investigation will not be con-
clu'lcd this week.

The Beef Trust
To Be Prosecuted.

Washington. Jan. 2I--Thn Beef
Trust so called is to be prosecuted by
the national government. The depart
mont of justice evidently believes it's
existence is a leading factor in main
tanning the present high prices of
fresh meats.
The contemplated action of the de-
partments follows an investigation
which has been conducted by it's spe-
cial agents for scmc months Initial
proceedings will be begun before the
grand jury at Chicago, probably next
week and may contemplate both civil
and criminal action.
The firms mentioned in connection
with the matter include Swift & Co.,
Morris & Co, and Armour & Co, all of
National Packing Co. The three first
named concerns are commonly repre-
scented to control the national corpora
ton for their common benefit.
The aim of the department has been
to ascertain the relations between these
firms, individually and the National
Packing Co. for the purpose of deter
mining whether they have operated to
control the prices of fresh meats,
which. according to almost universal
complaint, have been going higher and
higher. From the fact that proceed
ings are to be instituted, the Inference
is that the officials feel satisfied they
have good case.
One possible method of action may be
a suit to dissolve the company under
ganization, operating in restraint of
interstate trade. Proceedings against
individuals, also, may result.
The Investigations conducted by the
department, resulting in the determine
ton to proceed in the courts against
the alleged combination, had their in
ception in an inquiry into the practices

ing shipments for Morris & Co, which
