Is Somewhat Pronounced
In Securities Market.
Mexican War and Proposed
Investigation Of Trusts
Said to Be Largely the Cause.-The
lndustrials Are Slow.

New York, May IA tone of hes
itation and uncertainty developed in
| the securities market last week and
was reflected in the uneven course of
speculation. The rise of the previous
week gave place several times to a re-
dictionary tendency. The extent of the
previous advance and the period of its
duration gave some grounds for the
pause other reasons for which were
found in various unfavorable develop
ments of the week Most obvious of
the disturbing factors were increasing
gravity of the Mexican situation and
the various proposals for Congression-
al Investigations of so-called trusts.
The degree of resistance shown by
stocks to these unfavorable factors
seemed to indicate confidence in fun
damental conditions. The abundance of
money supplies and the growing diff
Guilty of finding employment for them
in commercial channels relieves the
stock market from pressure of liquid
alton of that score. In the bond mar
ket the pressure for funds for invest
ment continues to make a distinct inn
preston. New bond issues are in re-
stricted volume and are being readily
taken care of.
An index of the backward Industrial
movement is found in the reduced iron
production for April as compared with
March. Figures of bank clearings and
of railroad earnings bear out the in
ferences of restricted trade activity.
March railroad earnings show
some benefit from economies, but the
shrinkage in gross remains unbalanced
by the decreases in expenses. An Off
cial statement for the Pennsylvania
Railroad put the reduction of forces
and working time on lines east of
Pittsburg and Erie at the equivalent
of 10000 men owing to the depression
i'm business and the necessity to
economy in every possible way" The
contraction in the amount disbursed for
wages which is thus Indicated involves
reaction on demand for commodities.
Another item in the same process is
found in the lower prices for farm pro-
ducts which is serving to reduce the
amounts for ready expenditure in
farming communities.
The continued high promise fer
crops, so far as can be determined at
this season keeps up hopes for agri-
cultural prosperity. and acts as the
most substantial offset to unpromising
conditions found elsewhere.

FIRE AT aIDDEFoRD.

q SALUTE, NOT WAR.

Ell Paso, Tex, May AT about 8
o'clock tonight the Insurrecto OUT
posts fired few shots toward the fed
eral trenches. The Federals returned
the fire, but in few minutes the In
surreetos moved away.
1t is thought the Insurrecto van
guard. which already has started south
decided to give the Federals in Juarez
farewell salute.
Ell Paso. Texas, May when Gen
eral Madero heard of the dispatch
from Mexico City concerning Presi
dent Diaz's resignation. he immediate
ly gave orders to have the troops stop
marching couriers were sent ahead to
halt the advance guard.
The. movement of Insurrecto troops
had been begun when an Associated
Press representative telephoned the
Madero headquarters and read the dis
patch from Mexico city. Gen. Pas
eual Orozco received it and said 1t
probably would stop the movement of
the army. Gen. Orozco himself mount
ed his horse and galloped away with
the news to the tent mile away.
where Gen. Madero had retired for the
night.
Il naturally am very glad to hear
that President Diaz has made the an
nouneement" said General Madero to
an Associated Press representative. 81
am going to send a telegram to him
at once congratulating him on his pa
triotism for it certainly was an act
that required the highest kind of per-
sonai sacrifice and patriotism
DR.. Vasquez Gomez, head of the reb-
ell peace commission upon the receipt
of official information concerning the
manifesto and further instructions
from Gen. Madero, said peace nego-
tiations would be resumed
The primary condition has been
satisfied he said. 1.-THE other condi-
tons will not present any difficulties,
because they are the fulflment OF sec
ondary matters. The manifesto of Gen.
Diaz shows his good desire for the
welfare of the country
Judge Carbajal, the Federal envoy,
said ne had received no private advice
but it is assumed he will learn of the
matter later.
The Insurrecto camp became noisy
with shouts of joy as soon as the news
of the Diaz announcement spread
through the camp. Bugles were blown
and fires were kindled, around which
the men danced jubilantly. Gen. Made
TO returned from his tent to headquar-
ters to await further news. He was
plainly excited.
1.-The triumph of the revolution was
the phrase most heard. but intermin-
gled with the noisy chatter at the Ma
dero headquarters was many words of
praise for Gen. Diaz.
