WALL STREET HAS A BAD DAY Bears Siugle I)-t Un cifio and Southern Pacifle for Speoial Targ: NEW YORK, March 30.—Saturday's fa- vorable bank statement and the tone for Americans In Londen were disregarded at the opening of today's, stook market, a majority of the leading i showlng olines. A special set movement was made against Union Pacific and Southern Pa- cific, the latter exhibiting considerable weakness. Practically all the international list was lower and there was further evidence uf forced liquidation. The contfnued absence of public interest, the intensity of the Southern Pacific con- troversy and various adverse rumors rang- ing from threatened labor troubles tg fears of a money stringency were the chief causes for the unsettled state of the list. While definite information s lacking, ‘thero 18 little doubt that some of the banks have called loans as a preliminary to the adjustment of April settiements. d Up at M1 “1 was called up at midnight last night by & man who had come three miles for a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for eroup,” says Wm.

During the early morning more of the crib- bing was swept away by the terrific cur- rent that is running through the broken levee and the ends are caving with greater rapidity than ever. A large force is at the scene and lumber 1s arriving in abundance, but the crevasse is absolutely beyond control. . Benator Brady, in charge at ome end, says the break has now reached a width of 700 feet and that while work will continue the outleok for closing is less promising than it has been. A conference of all the agencies at work has been called to determine whether it is advisable to go on with.the present efforts. The land for miles around is a vast shee of water and the tracks are completely cov- erod, while the Southern Pacific is con- stantly in danger from backwater. 1f, the crevaese is abandoned the . break will doubtless prove one of the worst since the Davis crevasse in 1884, Cut Levees Bring No Rellef.

Afterward he entered into conversation with the cashier and myself. Mr. Pennell had several drinks. He gave me his card. During the conversa- tion, he sald: ‘‘You do not know what is passing . through my mind, boys. There is one man I could kill now, even if I hung for 1t." “I remarked that this man must be out of the state as wo lmve more improved methods here now. I saw Mr. Pennell on the following morning, when he bade me good bye."” “Is there anything else you recall of the conversation between you, Pennell and the cashler.” “Nothing except matters of ordinary con- versation.” Says One Man He Could Kii F. G. H. King, former cashier of the Hotel Roland, who was present during the conversation, related by Quinn, was the next witness.

" “After having ther drink, I proposed a toast, which was responded to by Mr. Pennell.
