As the first muzzle burst raked the
Mexican Captain Scraggs saw that
most Of the terrible blast Of lead had
gone too high. Nevertheless. It was
effective, for to man the crews Of
the one-pounders deserted their posts
and tumbled below; seeing which the
individual In command lost his nerve.
He was satisfied now that the Internal
Maggie purposed ramming him; he had
marveled that the filibuster should
use shrapnel, after she had ranged
with shell Che did not know It was
percussion shrapnelD and In sudden
panic he decided that the Maggie. NOR

enough to sink him with shell-fire II
she failed to ram him; whereupon the
yellow streak came through and he
waved his arms frantically above his
head In token of surrender.
"She's hauled down her rag"

Stock Prices
Turn Lower
Under Selli,l 9, 9:
Coal Strike Serves as a
Slight Unseitling Factor;
5 a les of Industrials
Heavier Than Railroads

After their recovery in a somewhat
irregular market on Tuesday, specu-
iative security prices turned lower yes
terday. The decision of the coal
miners to strike on April, though not
unexpected. was unquestionahly q
slightly unsettling factor, but the
technical position Of the market nftor
weeks of rising prices, crowning an
upward movement since last August
had begun onthe previous day to invite
considerable selling for profit-takine
purposes. On the basis of yesterday s
news developments, there was also
some short selling for a quick turn by
professional traders.
The dispatches from Paris outlining
the conditions under which the Allies
would grant moratorium were the
subject of much comment in the finan-
clal district The proposed arrange
ment was generally looked upon as a
step iii the right direction toward
moderation, although some opposition
was expressed to the proposal to
heghten the degree of Allied control of
German finances. Sterling cables
were quoted 4 of cent n pound
higher, and the Continental EXCHANGES
were frmer with the exception of Ger
man marks and Austrian kronen.
Marks tumbled to .32s4 of cent. new
low record.
There was heavier selling Of indus
trial shares than railroads. After the
market closed Northern Pacific di-
rectors announced cut in the dividend
which puts the stock on s instead of
7 per cent basis The stock showed
no signs Of anticipating the decision,
as it lost only 1s The reduction is
not wholly unexpected, as last wear the
company had to dip into surplus to
pay the dividends. The officials of the
road never denied the fact that the un-
settled railroad situation made the
continuation OF q per cent dividend
probiematical. In making the announc-
ing yesterday however, hope of a
prompt return to the old basis was ex-
pressed. Last week. the Great North
ern directors, in order to get three
months more to wait and watch de-
velopments, put the stock on a semi
annual instead of quarterly basis.
Cotton prices closed Is points lower
to . points higher, and wheat prices,
on indications of foreign buying at
tracted by the fall in quotations on the
previous day, recovered, gaining ~ to
rs cents bushel
