NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE

New York. June G.-In spite OF
the appearance OF strength lent by
the brisk demand and general rise
during the early trading. the mar
ket was not Immune from further
disturbances and toward the close
OF the forenoon there was n renewed
outburst OF selling. Prices were
borne swiftly below yesterdays close
and n number OF new low records for
tho long decline were reached.
General speculative conditions
were little changed and traders were
disposed TO attribute the early i'm
provcment to temporarily ovcrsoid
condition. Isolated points OF weak
ness appeared while the market was
forging upward and the cumulative
effort OF these scattered declines ul-
timatciy was factor In bearing
down the whole list.
Bonds were heavy.
For time after midday the list
broke badly. Atchison. Chesap peal X.
and Ohio. Lehish. Southern Pacific
and Steel selling from one to two
points under yesterdays closing.
Severe declines were also made In
n long list Of obscure shares. Seat
tered buying orders began to make
their appearance aud the list cvcniu'
ally rallied IL substantial amount
with, however. IA large contraction
In volume business on the rise.
Accumulation went on steadily IN
the afternoon and the persistence oi
the demand compelled heavy shor'
covering. Canadian Pacific sold :
points above yesterdays final lew.
and Union Pacific -.
Rccovcries from the loves, reached
u point or more In many places.
The markc, closed strong.
Offerings by the shorts for con
tracts on rapidly rising mark.
caused considerable competitive buy

LITTLE TESTIMONY
IS BROUGHT OUT
Inquest G YER Electrocuted
Employees Gives no Help
in Solution.
Especial to THE TrMEs.l

Crown Point, Ind. March 22.-The
coroner's inquest held yesterday to de-
termine the exact cause of the death
of Harry Ferry and August Kindberg,
the two young electricians who were
killed on Tuesday evening while hand
ling loaded wire. resulted in very lit
tie new testimony being brought out
that would throw light on the unfor-
tunate accident The story as re-
counted in THE TIMES bears out the
testimony as introduced at the inquest
yesterday. Possibly the accident could
have been avoided had the precautions
been taken before the terrible catastro
phe happened that became evident aft
erwards, but the evidence disclosed
yesterday bears out the theory that the
Northern Public Service company man
agement has practiced more than the
ordinary care for the safety of its em-
ployes and that while the accident
could have been avoided. there was no
testimony introduced to show any de-
gree of carelessness or negligence on
the part of any one connected with the
sad affair.

The appointment will be made from

Already all three of these have been.
besieged with applications.
In view of the fact that the county

the appointment is very important

Without any regard to the proprie-

FALLS UNDER TRAIN
ON WAY HOME

Friends of Michael J. Phelan. a for
mer Hammond boy, were shocked to
hear of his death yesterday morning at
Argos Ind, where he was accidentally
killed by falling under a Nickel Plate
train. Phelan. who had been resi-
dent of Hammond for several months,
left Wednesday night for his home in
New York. intending to make short
visit with his parents there and re-
turn to Hammond
Phelan came to Hammond several
months ago and through the aid of
friends secured employment. He prov
ed himself an honest and hard worker
and soon saved up enough money to
take him back home. After drawing
his pay at Granger & Whitakers 1iv-
cry barn Wednesday Phelan informed
