The sinking Of wheat aud the loose

immediate results Of this co-opera-
ton. The local papers are plan
ming to get out special editions. The
day will be advertised in other ways
by posters, circular letters and ad-
vertisements in the big dailies. The
railroads have been requested to give
special rates.

ming a number of special races and

ed by bankers and financiers that
their failure might precipitate q gen.
eral crisis they, j. p. Morgan and
Company taking the lead, exerted
themselves by advances Of ready mon
ey to meet the pressing demands and
otherwise to prevent their suspension.
Much of the effort. however, revolved
about the proposition for the cor
poration to acquire the stock Of the
Tennessee company. Nothing less
than the control Of the Tennessee
company was considered by the cor
poration and negotiations proceeded
rapidly and steadily to that end, it
being represented to Schley that in
no other way could relief be brought.
There was fear upon the part Of
the corporation that when the move
ment became publicly known the
Government might take steps to pre-
vent its consummation. In view of
this. e. II. Gary, the chairman Of
the executive committee Of the cor
poration. and H. c. Frick. direc. or.

to the Tennessee stocks, its owner
ship, the amount Of the money esti-
mated as necessary to relieve Moore
and Schley. and the ARRANGEMENTS
that had already been made to re-
lieve the Trust Company Of America,
they represented to the President
that the only thing that would pre-
vent vicious spread OF the panic
was for the corporation to acquire
the stock Of the Tennessee company.

undoubtedly Moore and Schley, but
1t was not true that among the as
