MAYOR WILSON STRONG FOR OUT
 0F TOWN MAN
Does Not Believe Investiga- tor Alexander Morrissey, Despite His Long Train ing, Is Man for Post.

Following the statement made by President F. w. Behrens, of the Char ities board last night that it was the intention of that board to fill the va cancy caused by the resignation of Su- perintendent Fred Johnson with a man whose knowledge of local condi- fions better fitted him for the local work, Mayor wilson today in 3 public statement to the press came to the defense of his administrative sanction of an imported and so-caIled "efficien- cy'' head. He said: W
 '1n my opinion, unless a man is ap- pointed to the position who has been specially trained as has Supt Johnson a lot of the great work it is conceded by all has been done by the board during his administration will suffer a severe setback, and the adrninis- fratfon Of the Board of Charities will be imperilled and will not approxi- mate the ideal board as it has been for the past two years
 sT am strongly in favor of a man who has been specially trained in the work and experienced in handling on his own initiative, the unfpr tunate and delinquent. cIassess and. am firmly Of the opinion that the appointment of any man who. has not that experi- ence that will be a step backward

THE STOCK MARKET

New York,Feb- 7-vVall Street i c: a. nsThe selling movement 1t which gathered force late in yesterday's market was resumed actively at the opening today and prices again gave way The most active stocks. with the exception Of steel, opened lower and some of the specialties receded sharp ly. Biscuit lost two points. California Petroleum another and Harvester one. Renewed weakness of the Rock Island securities was an unsettIing influence. The common stock at 89 preferred at 13 E and the collateral bonds at 449z all made new low records. As the list reached lower range. 1t received bet ter support. The downward move naent was checked and among the leaders recoveries were effected.
 Metal markets were dull and prac- unsettled. Lake nominal; e1ectrolytic 14so @14871z; casting 14e2 F Q 1A75. Iron unchanged.
 Weakness il, the Rock Island secur- ities against unsettled the stock mark ct today. The common and preferred shares as well as the collateral trust bonds fell to new low records
 Selling of the securities probably originated chiefly with the bear ele- ment. which has recently resumed an attitude of aggression.
 At the office of the Rock Island company it was said that the several plans of proposed reorganization were still under consideration and that no definite announcement was likely to be made for some time.
 Clesing.-The market closed easy. Forced liquidation of Rock Island se- curities discouraged efforts to bid up prices today. Although the initial downward tendency was checked quickly. the market was spiritless, with a. heavy undertone New low records were made in the Rock Island group. The common dropped to 6 3-4, The preferred to i2 1-z and the collat- erals to A. Bear operators who have been cautious recently in putting out short lines. traded more aggressively. but their selling had little effect New York Central was offered freely at in tervals, and declined to 90 1-s. Bonds were easy.

TROLLEY MONOPOLY OPPOSED TO PAYING.
 SHARE FOR BRIDGE

The Connecticut Company does not want it's tracks upon the East Wash ington avenue bridge, and they do not believe they should be compelled to stand any part of the cost of con- structfon of new bridge. This was the uItimatum submitted in letter from Supt. Charles H. Chapman this morning addressed to Mayor Wilson. in which he further said that the off, cials of his company do not feel that they will cause any inconvenience 10 the public by not permitting cars across the bridge. and as far as they are concerned and perfectly willing to have the bridge closed.
 Mayor Wilson said today: sI think the bridge should be built and the Connecticut Company should be com pel1ed to pay their share of the cost that the public might have the con yenience of having cars crossing this 1ridge.', He further stated that in ais opinion there was no reason why cars should be stopped from running over a new bridge or that the com pany should be exempt from paying it's portion Of the cost
