Mez,s of Day on Wall Steet-Ray Comes After Weakness
STOCKS SLOW AND IRREGULAR
WITHOUT MATERIAL CHANGE
IN MARKET VALUES.

NEW YORK, April 25. - Having de-
clined for some days on moderate trans
actions the market finally became over
sold and the covering of shorts late on
Monday produced considerable show of
strength. This was continued in the
opening this morning, not very posi-
lively but with a fair show of strength.
At tho same time the delay in handing
down the decisions has caused more
holders of stocks to weary of the long
delay, and they sold out considerable
stock. which in turn was picked up by
the bears to cover contracts.
The reported intent of Judge Gary to
retire from the Craftsmanship and prac-
tical head of the great Steel Corpora
tion might have caused some selling II
the first hour, but the story was soon
denied officially, and much harm from
the rumor averted. Judge Gary de-
clared that retirement had not even
been considered, and that there was
perfect harmony in the entire working
organization, the finance committee ana
the board of directors
Steel common acted well in the early
trading, advancing Il, and then the
pressure increased at "A, on an offer of
10000 shafes or any part at 1874. This
brought general selling and some long
stock, which the shorts took all the
way to 73. Then followed a y recovery.
London came in higher save on South
ern Pacific, which broke q of point

on the stock declare that it earned It's
dividend for the full year In eight
months to March !, 1911. The bears
tried to use the Southern Pacific deci-
sion and were successful for a loss or
81, but the effect of their efforts was
also shown on the general list.

many reported net earnings for the first
quarter of the calendar year at $219,S19,
a, surplus after interest and other de-
auctions of $54,544. For nine months the
company showed deficit i'll earnings of
Practically every stock on the list, eX-
cept Southern Pacific, was higher at the
opening, but the strength proved only
the last of the covering movement, and
the selling that followed, while 1t did
not look especially aggressive, was suf-
ficient to help along the liquidation that
developed.
Lehigh Valley lost a point, st. Paul
was relatively firm at Il reduction.
Union Pacific dropped slightly, Steel off
to 73, and back to 1875. Reading lost "
and recovered slightly. Missouri Paci-

During the early hours of the after
noon the losses were generally recover
ed, but there was little activity to the
list A few of the shorts tried to take
profits and bid the market up on them
selves Steel was within u of yester-
days close, Union Pacific little better,
and Southern Pacific slightly better than
at noon.

Perhaps the serious part of his nature was vaguely drawn iI that character. There was also little likeness to his friend. Edward Fitz gerald who always lived a very soli. tRry life"
 Warrington. indeed. may be taken as typical instance of how Thackeray made up his own personages out of odds and ends of characters" In the circumstances of his life Fitzgerald vas theA closest of all prototypes that have been suggested. Like Warning. ton. he had married beneath him, though not so far beneath as Warning. ton; he had found his wife utterly un. eongenial and had left her In comfort able circumstances to make his own way in London in poverty and ob- scurity. To add the final touch of pathos, Thackeray painted Warning tons abandoned wife as a bad woman. which Mrs. Fitzgerald wzs not. but only very foolish and snobbish one.

SPECIAL ROAD DISTRICTS
 AND THEIR TRUSTEES
A Suit to Determine Whether the
 Latter Have Not Been Eliminated

A suit was begun in district court yesLerdav TOT the purpose of secur- ing a judicial interpretation Of the status of the special road district law. It was decided by Judge Camp tell in a Yuma county case and again in a case in Pima county, that the law of the last legislature creat- ing the office of road superint 1nGent abolished the board of trustees of special road districts if it did not actually repeal the law authorizing the formation of special distric.s-
 Neither case went to the supreme court. s5 that the decision of Judge Campncn is the law at present only in those TWO counties.
 Tie action of yesterday was brought hy the Glendale Land company against Don C. Pahtitt. county treasurer, fol writ cf mandamus compelling hiJ- to pay calm of a little more than ten Ga:-a~s which had been allowed Iv the trIsTees of special road district Nc S. the trustee being w A. Hood, Ralph Mur,h hy and J. B. Roach.
 Several claims from not only thIs hut the ether special districts had been allowed. but the county treasurer. being desirous to learn whether Judge Campbelrs interpretation of the law was likely to be general, consulted District Attorney Bullard. who rec commended the bringing Of a friendly suit
 This claim was accordingly al- lowed by the trustees and was ap- proved by the board of supervisors, and tbus it was put up directly to the county treasurer. who formally refused to pay it.
 The papers in the suit were filed by C. F. Jayred. the secretary of the Glendale Land company.
