In Yesterdays Stock Market--Prices
Declined Swiftly in the
First Hour.

New York, Feb. Embarrassing re-
luctance to enter on fresh speculative
ventures at the present uncertain
period was indicated by the small
volume of trading on the stock ex-
change today.
Prices declined swiftly in the first
hour of trading, owing less to snort
selling than to the disposition Of the
traders on the long side to retire
from the field. St. Paul, Reading and
Consolidated Gas broke a point,
and most Of the other issues receIed
substantial fractions, while the SELL
ing was Under way.
Prices improved slowly until tee
list had reached or slightly bettered
Saturdays figures. Toward the close
of the day heavy buying of the Gould
stocks and bonds led to the bidding
up of other stocks to the highest of
the session.
International Harveter was the cen
trail figure of the morning trading. 1t
rose more than points while the
market was waiting word from the
directors acting on the dividend.
When it became known that the divi-
dend was declared at rate of . per
cent yearly the stock dropped pre-
cipitately, losing more than the
amount of its earlier gain.
Quotations of new securities, in
Guiding $S,000000 four per cent bonds
'of the Chicago, Burlington and Quin-
lev, and 100000 five per cent bonds
of the Consolidated Coal Company,
were announced today.
The bond market was irregular. To
tai sales, par value, $4,S18,000. U. S.

TRAGIC ACCIDENT
MARS CELEBRATION

Texarkana, July 5.--A shocking ac-
cident causing the death of one Of
Texarkana's foremost and most honor
ed citizens married the celebration at

bration. He was permitted, along with
others, to drive inside the gates. He
stopped near the aeroplane, remain
ing seated in the surrey to watch the
fight. Just as the birdman was get
ting ready to leave the earth, the
horse took fright at the whirring noise
made by the machinery of the aero
plane and dashed wildly away. MAJ.
Whatley was thrown from the vehicle
and struck the ground on his face
with great force. One cheek was
crushed in, one arm was broken and
besides numerous other ugly bruises,
he sustained internal injuries. Death
resulted in less than an hour.
Major Whatley served through The
civil war in the Tenth Texas infantry
and the Nineteenth Texas cavalry. He
settled in Texarkana II years ago. lie

nent in all the public affairs of the
community. For several years until
