Camp Fleming, Sept. 22.--After a
tiresome ride from Pensacola to Jack
sonville. the officers and men OF COM
pany NJ. Pensacola's infant military
company, have just emerged from q
halo Of military glory. Acknowledged
publicly by the communicative chief,
his excellency the governor. by the ad-
jutant general, by the brigadier gem
eral, by the colonels OF both regiments,
by each of the FIVE army officers de-
tailed for instruction, and by a ma
jority OF the line oflcers to be the
most efficient company, company NJ ac-
quilted itself indeed with honor
Immediately upon arriving at Black
Point, Capt. Walter Acker, Jr.. was ap-
pointed to act as major of the third
battalion, first infantry. First Lieu
tenant Lurton then assumed command
of the company and Second Lieutenant
Lusk acted as first lieutenant through
out the encampment. The appointing
Of Capt AclSer to the majorship was in
itself n signal honor to both himself
and the company.
The regimental dress parades were
especially inspiring and following ara
the remarks OF Gov. Albert w. Gil
christ as company M OF Pensacola
passed in his front: THAT company
from Pensacola, although the junior
company OF the brigade, has the best
line that has passed me this evening"
Sergeant w. b. Wright, Jr., acted as
battalion sergeant.
The sanitary conditions of the camp
are excellent. Cots were furnished
every one of the / 800 men in camp.
The weather has been ideal. while the
rations have been satisfaction in both
quality and quantity. The camp site
proper is without doubt the finest place
in the state for a brigade encamp-
ment and the citizens OF the state may
well feel proud Of their national guard.
On every hand the officers OF com
pany M have been hailed with this
query: Have you any more conf
panies in Pensacola like that
In any event, company M will hence
forth be recognized as the crack com-
pany of the national guard OF Florida.
The company will return to the city on
the afternoon Of the 27th.
It is understood that Captain AclSer
lacks three of the authorized strerFfi
of his command. and that after it
reaches it's home station he will access
the three best men available.

New York. Sept. 22.-In two hours
Of wild trading today the stock
market was thrown into confusion by
a violent break in prices. followed by
an equally violent recovery. For a
time 1t appeared as though the market
might become utterly demoralized.
Widely circulated reports that the
United States Steel Corporation was
preparing to dissolve, in compliance
with the Sherman antitrust law, or
that a dissolution suit was soon to be
filed by the federal government led to
flood of selling orders. Transactions
in the common and preferred stock
were enormous. Railroad stocks which
were affected adversely by the defeat
OF Canadian reciprocity also sold or
sharply.
After the first sharp break In which
245,O00 shares of United States Steel
common was sold in thirty minutes,
It became apparent that support was
being lent by powerful banking inter
Iests and trading became steadier.
Once the decline was stopped, the
market turned sharply. With the ex-
ception of the Hill stocks and Steel
common. the early losses were elimi-
mated. Officials OF the United States
Steel corporation sill maintained
their Ssilence. Reports that negOtia-
fkens between Attorney Gelseral Wick
ergham- and officials OF the corporation
were under way were denied by per-
sons In close touch with the situation.
NEW LOW RECORD.
The first transaction was a sale Of
$4,000 shares from 81 to 55 1-2 The
stock closed last night at So 1-2. The
deal caused Steel common to sell at
the lowest point since 1909. Steel Sc

upon the market and the common
stock subsequently fell to 50 IL.
There was fairly heavy selling In
Steel preferred, 1000 shares being sold
at 103 1-2 a loss Of IL points from
the closing last night.
Within a half hour after the market
had opened $4,000 shares of Steel
common had been thrown on the
market. The slump in Steel had its
effect throughout the general list.
There were declines Of from to 4
points in industrials and railroad
stocks.
Representatives OF the United States
Steel Corporation continued silent this
morning regarding the various reports
of voluntary dissolution of the cor
poration. II seemed to be the general
belief in Wall street that the Cteel
corporation had received intimation
from the federal government that II
could not continue in it's present form.
Defeat OF Canadian reciprocity added
to the weakness Of the market. Com
mission houses report a large amount
OF selling for Canadian account The
railway shares. which had held COM
paratively steady during the previous
days OF the slump In Steel stocks,
weakened today. The loss was most
extensive along the northwestern
roads, which were expected to assume
the greatest benefit from reciprocity.
Support was given to the railroad list,
however. to avert further demoraliza-
ton. The railroad list rallied from 1
to 2 points, some stocks showing net
gains
