puN,s WEEKLY

NEW YORK. May 2s.-Dun's to- morrow will say:
 The liquidating process that began some time ago in certain branches of business but which has only. lately oc- casioned general comment has con- tinued and is widening in it's influence. If not yet everyw here apparent, the movement toward readjustment is plainly discernib1e in various quarters as in textiles and hides and feathers and in footwear and is manifested both in current price tendencies and in the conditions affecting future operations. With an unusually backward season and a congestion in transportation that has seriously disorganized commerce, some shrinkage of transactions was to be expected. but these restrictive ele- ments do not fully explain the pre- vailing disposition of most dealers to confine commitments within the closest possible limits, and the increasing can cellations and revisions of orders.

NEW YORK, May 2s.-The ap- preaching holiday had perceptible attitude on the volume of business in the stock market today, dealings fall ing to nominal proportions. The tone was firm to strong almost from the outset however, especially in seasoned industrials and rails.
 Shorts were disposed at times to ex- ert fresh pressure against speculative issues, passing their tentative opera tions upon hopes of tighter money. but when this condition failed to develop hasty covering ensued.
 Call loans once more held at what has practically become the fixeds rate of per cent and many large borrow ings at that quotation running into next Tuesday were reported. Further slight relaxation of time money was observed, but this was almost wholly restricted to 30-day maturities.
 Rails were far more active than usual considering the small turnover, buying of that division embracing al- most a score of the popular high and low grade issues. Accompanying this movement was a steady demand for various bonds at gains of 1 to points. Otherwise the movement continued to concentrate in steels, affiliated equip ments. oils and motors and their sub sidiaries, with sprinkling of shippings, feathers and food specialtfes. Sugars were an exception, falling back toward the close on reports of a cut in the raw product. Sales amounted to 50,000 shares.
 A sharp reaction in marks. which cancelled the greater part of the recent gain, was the noteworthy feature of the foreign exchange market. Among in ternationaI bankers. Japan's financial situation evoked much discussion. Liberty bonds and victory notes were irregular but foreign war issues, notably United Kingdom and Dominion of Canada, strengthened. Total sales (par value) aggregated $15,250,0o0. old U. S. bonds were unchanged on call.

VOTERS PASSUP
five PROPOSALS
Reject Charter Amendments, g.
Cent Fare, City Ownership
and Daylight Saving.

The proposed charter amendments
and ordinances submitted to the vot-
ers at last Mondays election were de-
feated. save one. The voters evidently
had a cranky spell and voted mo- on
everything worth while.
The amendment to increase the tax
rate to Is mills failed of passage and
has left the commissioners in a pre-
d1cament. How are they to make
public improvements and increase the
salaries of firemen and policemen un-
less they have more money? 1T can't
be done," say the city officials. 1--WE
are up against it. We must now plug
along the best we can and haywire
our equipment
The firemen and policemen feel
blue over the election. They had hop
ed that the voters would show some
substantial sympathy for them, but
they didn't, and now it Is up to the
city to find another way out of it.
The proposed amendment to change
the election day from April to Nov
ember received a majority vote, but
not the 'three-fifths vote to insure
| passage.
The ordinance to increase the street
car fare from five to six cents was
beaten badly, as was also the ordi-
nance to authorize the city to acquire
by purchase or condemnation the
property Of the company. Neither the
company nor the city was treated
fairly, but what is the use of crying
about it? The voters have spoken and
they have the last say.
The daylight ordinance met a like
defeat. 1t is probably a dead issue
In Duluth for some time to come

GUST MUIRNIAN?
Rumor Has It That Independent
Investigation" By RhInow
ContempIates It.

The anti-labor forces in Duluth
have taken advantage Of, the unfor-
tunate situation growing out of the
lynching Of three negroes a week ago
last Tuesday and they are suggesting
that Commissioner Murnian, should
either resign or be removed.
OF course, Mr.. Murnian will not
resign. General" Rhinow. has been
instructed to conduct an ''investiga-
ton" Of the lynching Independent of
the grand jury which is now in ses-
sion in Duluth. Rumor has it that
Governor Burnquist will be requested
to remove Mr.. Murnian as he did
the sheriff Of Koochiching county.
who refused to do the bidding of
Backus, the lumber king.
In such an event we do not know
what Commissioner Murnian would
do. but IT we were in his place we
would say to the governor in so many
words: Go to it. did my duty
as saw it, and I refuse to be made
the goat. I will not give up this
Office for you or any other man. You
have lost your power to remove a.
commissioner in the city Of Duluth.
The people of this city took it away
from you. We have the recall here,
and If the people believe + did not do
the right thing or that I neglected
to do my duty on that exciting night,
they have it within their power to
remove me, and they alone possess
that power"
