BAD PRICE BREAK
Wall Street Is Alarmed
Harriman's Condition.

RUMORS AFFECT MARKET
In Spite or the Sharp Decline, Sell
ing Is Not Heavy Shorts Xot
in n Position to
Operate.
NEW YORK. Sept. 8. E. H. Harriman's
Illness axaln sent a shiver through the
world' securities markets today and broke
a wide hole In prices.
Evidence of the decline In prices wa great
ly aggravated by the fact that rumors wore
current before the market opened that th
financier had died. The reports were circu
lated both In London and In New' York. Their
harmful influence was not dissipated by the
early guarded assertions of Mr. Harriman's
official associates that they understood be was
better after an attack of lndigeatlon.
It was a fact that selling was not notably
large, even on the demoralized opening break
in prloe. The demand was too cautious,
however, to support prloes effectually, even
against selling. It was the subject of com
ment la the market that tho bears were timid
about making short sales; having In mind
their severe experience last Monday. The
large part of the short Interest that had been
eliminated In the sharp recovery of last week
left the market at a disadvantage today In a
technical sense, since the buying to cover,
by an outstanding short Interest always forms
an Important pteadylng Influence In violent
breaks of prices.
It Is considered certain that the utmost pre
cautions have been taken to meet a sudden
emrcgeney, both in the affairs of the Hani
man companies themselves and In ths specu
lative markets.
The weak closing at the lowest prices of
the day was sccompanled by bulletins af
firming the low vitality of Mr. Harrlman and
th great anxiety felt by his family and
friends. The stock market had no oppor
tunity to express Its opinion on the state
ment of Mr. Harriman's condition, as this
was not pubtlpfced until after the stock mar
ket had closed.
Bonda were Irregular. Total sales, par
value, J2.924.0C0. United State bonds were
unchanged on call.

MOVEMENT WILL CONTINUE
Effect of the Big Arrivals on Prices
Is Offset by Wet Weather
In the Spring Wheat "
Country.
CHICAGO. Sept. 7. Wet weather in-- the
West and Southwest had a tendency to offset
liberal receipts of wheat In the Northwest
and caused a fairly steady tone In wheat
here today. The chief factor In the situa
tion was tho wheat movement In the North
west and talk of still larger arrivals for
some time to come. Total arrivals tody at
Duluth and Minneapolis aggregated 15
cars, which was only a little short of the
record-breaking movement of the correspond
ing day a year ago. As a result of these
heavy receipts, cash premiums at the North
western markets showed a still further
fading away.
Other factors that contrlbnted to tho heavy
undertone were inoreased visible supply in
the United States and In tho amount of
breadstuffs on passage, asy cables, and ths
amount of world's shipments for the week.
Some congestion was manifested In the Sep
tember delivery and that tended to steady
the deferred months. During the day De
cember sold between 93 c and 9c. Sep
tember closed at c gain, at 9Sc, while
other months were uncharged to a shade
lower, with December at 04 c.
Corn was depressed by Impending heavy
receipts here and a consequent decline of
c In cash grain. The market closed easy,
c higher to c lower.
Oats were dull all day and the close was
a shade J (c lower than Saturday.
Provisions were firm early in the day,
but weakened later. Aat the close, price
were 2c lower to 5c higher.

& Brown publishing house will set up its
old and distinguished household goods In
the old Joy mansion at the corner of
Beacon and Joy streets, overlooking the
Common and the adjacent Public Gar
dens. The location on the very crest of
Beacon Hill is a superb one. The estate
is large and will admit of any degree of
expansion of their enterprises. The view
sweeps the entire Common and Gardens,
and the western skyline, with the
towers and spires of several of the
Back Bay churches against the sky, Is
always a pioture. Seen in the after
noon, and at sunset, the view is one to
enchant painter and poet.
Boylston street is entirely a street of
the more decorative orders of trade, and
its shop windows are alluring as one
strolls down. Arlington street, faolng
the east, and having the Publlo Gardens
for its border aoross the way, is the
locality to which art galleries- and
libraries seem to gravitate.
OUR UNUSED WATERWAYS
Few Questions of Greater Import
Than Their Proper Utilization.
Pittsburg Post.
The report that several members of
the National Waterways Commission, as
well as members of Congress and other
officials, are to go to Europe to study
conditions inspires the hope that this
will not prove merely a pleasure junket.
Few questions of National Import are of
greater consequence and worthy of deep
er investigation than that of the proper
utilization of this, one of our natural
resources.
It is a matter of common knowledge
that we have not been making use of our
rivers to the best advantage, that traffio
on them has been allowed to decline,
that canals have been abandoned; in
short, that we have virtually resigned in
favor of the railroad. A recent report on
transportation by water, submitted by
the commissioner of corporations, showed
that while there are about 6800 miles of
river navigation of the depth of six feet
or more, and more than 2000 miles of
canals, these totals are broken up into
a large number of unrelated parts by
reason of different depths and different
condition. -
What is needed in this 'country is
clearly a comprehensive system . of
waterways, not a disjointed and conse
quently ineffective arrangement. Abroad,
the state has taken the matter up, built
canals and dredeed rivers, but always

with a view to the eternal fitness of

systems that are of vast benefit to the
commercial interests. Such results are
not to be attained in haphaxard fashion.'

quest.
The Clammy Hand Season.
Charleston News and Courier.
We wish to protest against clammy
hands. We phake the praohiat extrem
ities of macy persons each day. We are
always glad to do so. It eeema to draw
us together, but we are absolutely op-'
posed to the propagation of bacteria of
any kind. Quite aside from the health
feature of this hand-shaking business, it
is disagreeable to a marked degree to
those whose skin is thin and whose feel
ings are sensitive. A clammy hand: It
makes the blood curdle; lt sends cold
shivers down the back; it sots one's
nerves on edge. What are handkerchiefs
for anyhowT If we are going to carry
this dry business through to a logical
conclusion, why not let it include hands?
Use powder or anything else, but please
keep the hands dry.
