u. S. TRUST KATY TRUSTEE
Central Trust Company Resigns Its
Office Under the First Mortgage.

Edward Cornell. Of Davies, Auerbach
& Cornell. counsel for the Central
Trus: Company in the foreclosure pro-
ceedings under the first mortgage OF
the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Rail
way Company, said yesterday that the
substitution of the United States Trust
Company as trustee under the ort-
gage in place Of the Central Trust
Company was made at the latter's re-
quest. He added:
THE Central Trust Company pre-
scented It's resignation to the court, and
asked that Z be accepted on the
ground that it desired vigorously to
prosecute the pending foreclosure suit
brought BY il as trustee OF the con-
solidated mortgage Of the railway
company. and that its duties therein
might conflict with the trusteeship OF
the first mortgage.
"The United States District Court
accepted the resignation and imme-
diately appointed the United States
Trust Company substitute trustee. At
the same time the court denied the
petition of the first mortgage bond
holders committee TO be allowed to
intervene in the foreclosure suit

Paris, April 6.-The new loan now
probably will be put off till autumn,
Is the government considers its
financial needs assured until that
time.
The economic conference between
England and France to consider ac-
ton after the war, which was to be-
gin this month, also has been ad-
journed, and it is possible that the
other economic conference, which
was unofficial. likewise will be ad-
journed. The only economic cam
paign actually in being is that of the
French association which is trying to
find a way of preventing purchases
from Germany after the war without
also stopping sales to Germany. 1t
has rather difficult problem to solve.
The French stockholders of the
Thomson Houston Company are very
much dissatisfied with the way the
new issue of Is per cent preferred
has been handled. Stockholders who
did not receive notice of the new is
sue sent in subscriptions and at once
received the answer that all the
stock had been taken. The question
is, Who got it? Did those in the know
subscribe for the stock before the
stockholders received their notices?
The stock Of gold in the Bank of
France has fallen 20,000,000 francs
to 1886, 100000. Loans to the state
have increased 2OO,OOO,OOO to $780,
100000. The banks note issue also
has increased 2OO,OOO,0OO and is now
15,154, 100000 francs.

PATCHED AT SEA,
ESPAGNE SAFE In
Cement Seals Hole Made
in Side-Passenger Says
French Rule Air

When the French liner Espaene
steamed up the bay yesterday, a
crudely patched hole was plainly Wis
ible on her starboard side. This was
the result of collision with an uni
Identified tramp steamer in the Bay OF
Bscay, on October 81.
Two days off the French coast, at IL
p. m. the lookout in the forward
crows nest sighted a vessel dead
ahead, with apparently no lights burn
ing Captain Laurent shouted to pu;
the wheel hard a-starboard. which
would have averted a crash had not
the tramp turned in the same dircc-
ton. The next high wave caused the
steamer to smash against the EspaG 1e
just abaft the anchor chains. An
ugly hole was the result and the sea
began pouring in.
Many passengers were thrown from
their berths and Immediately ran on
deck. believing that the Espagne had
been torpedoed Lifebelts were dis
tributed. and the lifeboats were swung
from their cradles.
Meanwhile the tramp stood by ana
inquired by wireless if the spasne
needed assistance. After making an
examination Captain Laurent replied
that the Espagne was not in danger;
As a precautionary measure he hashe
an S. 0. s. call. In response TO the
distress signals three British cruisers
the Spanish liner Regina Maria CHRIS
tina. and the Missouri. Of the Ha-
waiian-Americsn Line, came up under
full steam. and stood by.
Yesterday Captain Laurent was rot
a little proud of the way in when ms
crew had mended the hole. PlanSS
were lowered along the outside OF the
ships bow. and while these were hcld
in place by the pressure of the watei'
large steel plates were riveted INSIDE,
to cover the opcning. Cement was
then poured between the boards ana
plates. and in few hours sohd hA-
INC had stopped the aperture.
Max Under, the Charlie Chaplin OF
France. was another passenger. lie
has come to this country to act before
the screen. At the outbreak of the
war Mr.. Under joined his regiment;
but was wounded in his right ..rm,. ana
after recovery he was released IRON
