A PANIC IN WALL STREET. Eicitlng Scenes Wlicli Recall the Black May ol 11 Heary Failures Among the Stock Oper ators—Tho Worst is OTen A New York special of Friday says: This was the worst day Wall street has seen in this week of woe. Hopes in dulged in Thursday evening that the panic had run its course were prema ture. The stock market opened amid great excitement and with prices about the same as Thursday’s closing. It was very soon apparent that many stocks must be sold out regardless of price. Tho discrimination of the banks against certain stocks, espec ially Industrials as collaterals in loans, has compelled their holders to throw them overboard. Tho slaughter of industries was aw ful, and it was very quickly seen that there must be more failures. No house largely interested in these stocks could bo expected to remain solvent. A PANIC IN THE AIR. By 9 :30 o’clock the galleries of the stock exchange began to fill. Thurs day’s exciting events had attracted everyone’s attention, and the public had awakened to tho fact that a panic was in the air. On the floor at 9 :50 o’clock, a broker yelled: “What will the price of cordage be?” and the cry echoed back and forth through the galleries. Everybody was aroused and some were in danger of tumbling over the railing to the floor beneath in their endeavor to get a view of the cordage crowd, which was swelling in numbers every second. Pandemonium was im minent, when, at 10 o’clock a wooden mallet fell and with it three sharp blows upon the chairman’s desk, tho market opened. EVERYBODY GONE CRAZY. “Nineteen for cordage,” came on tho instant, and tho sale of 5,000 shares at that figure was, in a moment, re corded on the tickers. The sugar crowd, St. Paul crowd and Chicago gas crowd were having a high old time. For spectators, their interests lay with the cordage crowd, which was most con spicuous in point of numbers, and on account of greater demonstrations with voico and pads waved aloft. There were many more ladies pres ent in tho galleries than on the day before, and wild pushing and yelling of tho brokers below stirred them up to such a high state of excitement that many of thorn cried out in very sym pathy. THE PANIC COMES. Tho panic already foreshadowed at last last dropped out full-fledged, The sight became indescribable. The crowd swayed backward and forward and it looked for a moment as though the rush below was to be reproduced above. “deacon” white’s failure. The excitement on the stock ex change was most intense, and prices fell so rapidly that it was a difficult matter to keep track of them. Tho announcement of the suspension of S. Y. White added to tho general demon stations which seemed to have set in. BIG DROPS IN PRICES. American sugar which opened at 85 had dropped to 63 at 11 o’clock. Chi cago gas fell from 74 to 65, general electric from 86 to 66. National Cor dage 19 to 18 1-4. Whiskey trust from 22 1-4 to 21 1-4; lead from 33 to 28. United States rubber from 45 to 40. Western Union from 83 to 81 1-4 and Manhattan from 126 to 120. The appointment of receivers for National Cordage at a late hour Thursday night was the occasion for further break in the preferred stock Friday morning at 45. Tho common opened at 9 to 21, five thousand shares changing hands at this price. General electric was another weak spot, and in the first few minutes of business the stock broke five points to seventy-five. Tho fact that certain people have thought it necessary to issue a statement that the company is all right is viewed with suspicion in some quarters. At 10:15 a. m. stock was selling at 69. Sugar was also at tacked and broke to 76, while Chicago gas dropped to 60. Manhattan sold down 5 1-2 to 1.21. Considering the panic in the industrial group, the general list held fairly well. DEACON WHITE FAILS AGAIN. S. V. White & Cos. announced their suspension at 10:45 o’clock on account of the terrific drop in Cordage and Chicago gas. The failure of Ferris & Kimball was announced on stock exchange shortly after 12 o’clock. At that hour the nervous tension in financial circles showed no signs of relaxing. The failure of S. Y. White caused a fresh outbreak of the selling fever. Barely, if ever, in the history of the stock ex change were there such wild fluctua tions witnessed. LONDON BUYING HEAVILY. Seen at a distance of 3,000 miles, the disposition had a different aspect. While our own brokers were in a dazed condition and throwing over their stocks regardless of prices, foreign houses were quietly at work picking Tip the dividend payers. Their pur chases were heavy enough to demoral ize the foreign exchanges. It was es timated that up to noon London’s purchases of securities in the local market aggregated fully sixty thousand shares, consisting of St. Paul, Louis ville and Nashville, Wabash preferred and other interior national favorites. Money at this time was close and stock borrowers were paying 11 and 12 per cent. At 1 o’clock* the battle had been on three hours and many of those in the early engagement had gone outside to the sutler’s camp for food. They heard how London and other centers were lying back in comparative safety and absorbing the fruits of their sacrifices. A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER. The result was a change for the bet ter in the stock market and a steadier tone characterized the next dealings. The foreign buying was felt inside to have been on a heavy scale and the New Yorkers saw that European pur chasers had certainly picked up some very cheap stocks. The example set by the foreigners and the confidence they displayed in our securities re vived the drooping courage of home operators and a great rally resulted. At 1:30 o’clock p. m. money sold off to 18 to 20 per cent and the pressure 1 against the market was lifted and just previous to 2 o’clock money on call fell to 6 per cent, owing to the heavy offerings of funds by commission houses. Asa result, the market for stocks became comparatively calm and brokers enjoyed the only real resting spell they have had during the week. Indication pointed then to the fact that considerable amounts of stock had been taken up and paid for. Up to 2 o’clock Friday evening the sales of listed stocks were 444,970 shares and of unlisted stocks 201,851 shares. At that hour the market was somewhat feverish, although some stocks were actually above Thursday night’s closing. At the office of Ferris & Kimbill, whose failure was announced at 12 :45 o’clock, it was stated that no statement of the condition of the firm would be given out until later in the afternoon. The shrinkage in Industrials carried down the concern. A feature of the market for railway and miscellaneous bonds was a break in security corporation 6’s to 82. The last previously reported sale was 96. This is the collateral company that was organized to finance for the National Cordage. The failure of B. L. Smith & Cos. Thursday brought out these bonds, The following stocks were sold out under the rule at the New York ex change Friday presumably for S. Y. White: 2,100 American sugar, 700 At chison, 300 Cordage, 100 Lead, 100 Erie, 200 New York and New England and fifty Western Union. AFTER THE BATTLE. After the gavel had fallen and the battle was over for the day the men went away into quieter spots and looked the situation over from a dis tance. In well-informed financial quarters, the feeling grew that tho worst has been seen in Wall street, and from this time on matters will im prove. On this theory, which had, to some extent, obtained before the close, and on the fact that certain houses whose names had been named as being in the storm of the early part of the day, pulled through all right, it was seen that there had been a revolution in sentiment and prices bounded up almost as rapidly as they had dropped early in the day. WHITE EXPECTS TO RESUME. Mr. White says that he expects to resume payments at once. It is stated that the Havemeyers, the wealthy sugar men, have but up money enough —sl,ooo,ooo —to place Mr. White on his feet again. His losses, it is said, are in sugar and Manhattan Elevated stocks. He has a large amount of sugar privileges out on which the losses are heavy. WILL OPEN ON SUNDAY. The World’s Fair Gates Will Not Close on That Day. A Chicago special of Friday says: Jackson park will be open on next Sunday, and the payment of 50 cents will entitle any member of the great public to enter just as it has for the past six months. There will be no formal action taken and there will be no official announcement made, but the gates will be open. Superintendent Tucker, of the bu reau of admissions, understands that his force is expected to work Sunday and has made arrangements according ingly. It has been the rule in the past to have the gates open on Sunday, and as there has been no order to make a change, Tucker will continue as usual. THE SAME AS ANY OTHER DAY. One gentleman, intimately con nected with the government of the fair, said: “Yes, the grounds will be opened next Sunday. I just had a talk with Superintendent Tucker, and I know that he expects to have his ticket sell ers and gate-keepers on duty that day. “He has had no instruction to close the gates on Sunday, and his last or ders given several weeks ago, were to admit the public on Sunday the same as any other day.” ALL EXCEPT MACHINERY HALL. He holds, and of course he will be upheld in his opinion, that he has no authority to close the gates until he is officially instructed to do so. The entire force of guards will bo on duty and the public will not be al lowed to enter any of the buildings but the horticultural hall and green houses, and will then wait for developments. The parks will be open every Sun day during the period of the exist ence of the fair, and in a few weeks exhibit buildings will be open, but the machinery will never be turned on Sunday. A CURT ANSWER Was That Sent Secretary Gresham by Governor Pennoyer. A special from Portland, Oregon, says: The following telegrahic cor respondence passed between Secretary of State Gresham and Governor Pen noyer Tuesday: Washington, May 3.—Governor Pennoyer, the capitol. Salem, Ore.,: Apparently reliable reports indicate danger of violence to the Chi nese when the exclusion act takes effect, and the president earnestly hopes you will employ all lawful means for their protection in Oregon. W. Q. Gresham Governor Pennoyer immediately sent the following reply: Salem, Ore.. May 3.—to W. Q. Gresham. Washington. D. C.: I will attend to my busi ness: Let the president attend to his- Sylvester Pennoyer, Governor. Governor Pennoyer, speaking of the matter said: “The Gresham telegram is an insult to Oregon. I will enforce the law of the state and the president should en force the laws of congress. It was with poor grace for the president to ask me to enforce the state laws, while he, without warrant, suspends the ex clusion law.” Specie Movements, The imports of specie at the port of New York for the past week were $42,411, of which $33,265 were gold and $9,146 silver. The exports of specie from the port of New York for the week $1,237,471, of which $528,184 was gold and $709,287 silver. Of this amount $508,102 gold, and $686,698, silver, went to Enrope, and $20,082 gold, and $22,589 silver went to South America. Snow Storms in the Orient, A heavy snow storm began at noon Saturday in Vienna, Austria. There was a great snowfall throughout Hun gary Friday, and railway traffic is blocked by the snowdrift. WHITECAPISM PARALYZED. Termination oltbe Famons Mississippi f lite Cap Trials. Governor Stone Upholds Judge Chris man in Enforcing the lair. A special from Brookhaven, Miss., says: Wliitecapism recieved its death blow in south Mississippi Monday. Since the mob came to town last Thurs day for the purpose of liberating the indicted white caps in jail, and an at tempt to assaissnate the judge of the court when he threw himself in the breach, the community has been in a fever of excitement and a fresh assault was expected at any moment. The sheriff deemed it best to reinforce the citizen soldiery by telegraphing Governor Stone, for two companies of state troops. As Monday was the day for which the white caps trials had been set, it was expected on all sides that things-would reach a crisis. Numer ous reports had been received that the attack would be renewed just before daylight or during the day. Governor Stone who hurried to the scene of the trouble when the first outbreak occur red, had promised to return and ad dress the people in support of law and order. Contrary to general expectation, no outbreak occurred during the night and at an early hour people began to arrive from the country in large num bers. The urban population were al ready up and on the alert, and by 9 o’clock one of the largest crowds ever seen in town was assembled. The courthouse and jail were heavily guard ed until the hour of opening court and no one was allowed to pass pickets ex cept persons connected with the court and the military. At 10 :30 o’clock the order was given to allow the crowd to enter the court house, and in a little while, all availa ble sitting room was completely filled, while hundreds had to remain on the outside. A picked guard of half a dozen men with Winchesters and big revolvers stood at the right of the judge’s bench facing the audience. Judge Chrisman, who has been the central figure of the occasion all the way through, stood near the entrance to the courtroom and with easy grace and calm demeanor helped the sheriff to direct the crowd to the seats. At length, Judge Chrisman announced that before the regular business of the court was proceeded with, Governor Stone, who had come during the night, would deliver his address. GOVERNOR STONE TALKS. The governor said he had come as the chief executive officer of the com monwealth to render whatever assist ance he could by his presence and counsel in vindicating and upholdiig the majesty of the law. This he was determined to do at cost. He wanted the lawless element of Lincoln county to understand that he, the governor, and the whole law abiding element of Mississippi, stood at Judge Chrisman’s back and would render him all needed assistance in bringing the guilty to justice. He expressed the utmost con fidence in Judge Chrisman’s integrity, judgment and mercy, and would give him all needed support in the discharge of his official duties. At the conclusion of Governor stone’s speech Judge Chrisman ascended the bench and called the white cap cases. About two hundred witnesses had been summoned, principally for the defense and most of them were found to be pre sent. The counsel for the defense were loth to go to trial and first made a motion for a change of venue on the ground of undue prejudice against the accused, but this was also a motion for a continuance of the cases until next term. FLEAS OF GUILTY AND SENTENCES. But few realized the sensation that was about to follow. The attorney for the defense came forward and announc ed to the judge that six of the nine prisoners who had been placed on trial wished to plead guilty. The state’s attorneys stepped forward and said that he was willing to accept the pleas and would enter nol pros as to the remaining three, as the testimony did not justify their further prosecu tion. Judge Chrisman called the men before him who had plead guilty and said that he would not accept their plea unless it was made in entire good faith and not under the idea that they could not get justice if the trial pro ceeded. Each one declared that he was acting in perfect sincerity and good faith, and begged for the mercy of the court. Judge Chrisman then pronounced the sentence of two years on each in the penitentiary, but promised that if their friends would desist from other lawlessness and conducted themselves properly he would use hi3 influence with the governor to have the sentence shortened after they had served one year. The full limit of the law would have been ten years. All the convicted men have families except one and are poor. Their wives and children were in court and the sobs and scenes which followed were heartrending and moved many stern men to tears. This breaks the back of whitecapism in Lincoln county. Many members of the mob have already signified their intention of coining in next Friday and pleading guilty and throwing themselves on the mercy of the court. All troops were withdrawn Monday evening and things have assumed their normal condition. GERMAN ARMY BILL Defeated and Ihe Reichstag Dissolved. Great Excitement. A special cable dispatch from Berlin says: The army bill was rejected in the Reichstag Saturday by a vote of 210 against 162 in favor of the bill. The rescript signed by the Kaiser dis solving the Reichstag was immediately promulgated and the Reichstag was dissolved. Immediately upon the re sult of the vote being announced, Chancellor Caprivi read the imperial mesiagi decreeing the dissolution of Reichstag. The social democratic members of the Reichstag displayed wildest enthusiasm over the result. They hurrahed repeatedly, following cheer with cheer. Great confusion and uproar prevailed in the house, and public excitement is at the highest pitch in Berlin. CARLYLE HARRIS EXECUTED. End of a Most Unnsnal Murder Case at New York. Carlyle W. Harris was executed by electricity in the death house of the prison at Sing Sing, N. Y., at 12.40 o’clock Monday afternoon. The exe cution was a perfect success. The death warrant was formally read to Harris at 8.30. He displayed indifference and its reading did not noticeably affect him. He showed no signs of breaking down and appeared cheerful after the reading of the death warrant. At 11 o’clock the witness assembled in the warden’s office. There were twenty-seven —seven phy sicians and twenty newspaper men, state officials and friends of the warden. Warden Durstin, at 12.16, announced that everything was ready, and invited the witnesses down stairs. Harris was brought in looking pale. He paused an instant on the threshold and looked over the assembled wit nesses. He walked entirely alone, and when the guard pointed to the chair, without even a look of curiosity at the thing which was to end his career, he dropped into the seat. As he did so he said he had a word to say if the warden would permit. The warden asked what he wished to say. Harris, in a weak voice, as though each word cost him a powerful effort, said: ‘‘l have no further reservation to make. I desire to say that I am absolutely in nocent.” These were his last w r ords. After uttering them he seemed reliev ed and settled back in the chair to which his legs had already been strap ped by the two guards. The electrode was placed on his head and the wires attached to the two electrodes. There was an instant’s pause, while every man in the room held his breath. A sharp click from the lever, and the form in the chair straightened up till the straps creaked, and the death deal ing current of 1,760 volts passed through the body of Carlyle W. Har ris. THE CRIME OF HARRIS. Mary Helen Neilson Potts was a beautiful girl of seventeen years, re siding with her parents, who were peo ple of wealth, at Ashburry Park, New York city. At the time of her death she was attending the Comstock Fin ishing school, on Forty-first street. She was considered the belle of the school, and had that light heart and charming nature which won the affect ion of teachers and schoolmates alike. On Saturday night, January 31, 1891, she was invited to attend an evening concert, to which other scholars in tended going. She agreed to make one of the party, but at dinner time complained that she was so tired that she thought she would go to her room and rest rather than accompany the others. She kissed them all good night, and that was the last time any of them saw her again clothed in her right mind. BEAUTIFUL DREAMS. At 10:30 p. m., two of the girls, who occupied the same room with Miss Potts, returned from the concert and, bursting into the room, aroused the sleepy Helen from what they thought was a deep sleep to tell her of the good time they had enjoyed. She aroused herself drowsily from her sleep, and stretched forth her hand as if still in the land of dreams, said to them: “Oh, I have had such beautiful dreams! such beautiful dreams! I could dream on forever!” Then she sank back upon her pillow and let her eyes close slowly, dropping again into the blissful dreams of death. Her companions gave her a good night kiss and gently folded the arm extend ed over the edge of the bed, and then proceeded to prepare for bed. It was half an hour before they were ready to turn off the light, and just as the room was plunged in darkness they were startled by moans, which came from the corner where Helen’s bed was. A light was struck, and the two frightened girls bent over their com panion’s flushed face. She was toss ing on her pillow and nervously fin gering the lace edges like one who is preparing for death. Thoroughly frightened, the girls rushed down the hall to where Miss Day, the principal, slept and aroused her. Miss Day im mediately rang for messengers, and in a short time three physicians, Drs. Fowler, Baur and Kerr, were striving with all their skill and might to save the young life. For eleven hours' they worked upon the dying girl, while her companions looked on with frightened looks and streaming eyes, but to no purpose, as the rosy cheeks paled into gray, and finally took on the grim, blue tinge with eyes that shrunk into the head as if the child had suddenly added a century to her age; at last they gave up in despair and sadly watched her pass away into the sleep that knows no awakening. The suspicion that Harris had killed the girl did not arise immediately, their relations being unknown at the time. The fact soon developed that they had become secretly married, that Harris had grown weary of her, and being a medical student with some knowledge of drugs had administered poison to her under the pretense that it was a harmless medicine. EIGHT-HOUR CELEBRATIONS. Great Annual Demonstration in Lon* don by the Workingmen. The annual eight-hour demonstra tion of London workingmen was made Sunday in Hyde park. The weather was fine and all the proceedings were conducted “with exceptional enthu siasm. All the principal unions had appointed delegates to take part in the procession. These delegates met or the Thames embankment, were formed in line and marched through cheering crowds of laborers to the park, where they were di vided among the audiences at the numerous speakers’ platforms. The entire open space in the park was filled with men and women. At twenty one plat or ns resolutions were passed in favor of a legal eight-hour day for every trade which voted for it. At every meeting collections were taken for the Hull strikers. The most nota ble speech of the day was made by John Burns. The eight-hour move meunt, he said, was making rapid progress. The success of the eight hour bill for miners was an evidence of progress as well as an evident e of further success.

One of the queerest musical instru ments ever known, and perhaps the only one of its kind, has reaohed here from Greenville, East Tennessee. The queer instrument is a violin made from a gourd, and it is thirty-nine years old. The strangest, weirdest music that ever was heard comes from it. The tones are fine and soft and float on the air ae from the land of spirits. James Anderson Taylor, governor of Tennes see, and uncle of the famous Taylor boys who fiddled their way through Tennessee during a recent gubernato rial campaign, used to play on it. He made music from the gourd fiddle at the reception to Andrew Johnson by the people of Greenviile, his native town, jußt after he was made president of the United States. He played the “Old Virginia Heel,” the “Fisher*’ Hornpipe” and many other things, and the president “hoed it down” with everybody present and enjoyed it more than he could tell. The gourd grew at Johnsville in the said state, and it, with the neck, which is *of poplar, is sixteen inches long. The keys are common violin keys, the strings catcut and the sounding board of leather from a stitch down shoe, while the bridge is of poplar. The bow is of a dark wood, and the hairs black, being pluoked from a horse’s tail. The older the fiddle grows the better it is, so H. C. Atkinson says, who owns it.—San Francisco Exam iner. U. S.

Three of the first four presidents of the United States married "widows. The wife of John Quincy Adams, who received her education in England, created a great sensation in the na tion’s capital. The wife of Martin Van Buren, Hannah Hoes, lived hut a short time after her marriage, dying about seventeen years before her hus band’s election to the presidency. President Tyler’s second wife was an ardent Roman Catholic, and Mrs. Polk was a calm mannered Presbyte rian. Mrs. Millard Fillmore had been a school teacher, and the courtship was carried on under difficultses, as the lover could rarely afford the expense of a journey to see his fiance. Mrs. Franklin Pierce was the devout daugh ter of a clergyman and made the White House a center for charitable and religious enterprises. —Detroit Free Press. Nemesis.

Of the people of the Hawaiian Islands it can be truly said that they are the most amiable, careless, irresponsible people in the world. The nearest ap proach to work of any of them is in their employment as cowboys on the stock ranches. They are wonderfully expert horsemen and also become adept in the use of the lasso. A native man, or a native woman for that matter, is never so happy as when on a spirited horse, going at a hard gallop, decked out with flowery leis and streamers of bright colored cloth, in screaming con versation with a whole troop of com panions. They ride their horses to death, they kill their babies with neg lect and improper food, and yet it can not be said that there is a grain of con scious cruelty in their nature. There is no record of any violence ever done by them to a woman. A white -woman is absolutely safe among them without any protection and is exempt from insult or even disrespect beyond what may come from an uncon scious usage of etiquette. Many of them pass the greater part of their lives squatted on woven grass mats be fore the doors of their hut* chatting inconsequentially and eating their meal of fox when th* inclination comes to them.—Washington Star.

If a dairyman has trouble in the milk and it appears directly after milking, he may look for the cause in what the cow has eaten.
