erees and trustees."

A Good Investment.
Clatsop county has secured posses
sion of the tollroad between Seasldt
and Elk creek, and orders have boon
issued to repair the bridge and place
the road In good condition for sum
mer travel. This will be welcome news
to a large number of people who spend
their summers at the beach and who
are usually prevented from visiting
the famous E1K cret'k and Cannon
beaches on account of the wretched
condition ot the old tollroad. A good
road between Clatsop beach and Can
non beach would Increase the sum
mer travel to both of these resorts.

MARKET
Considerable Excitement atSlump
in North Pacific Securities.
MARKET IS HONEYCOMBED
Decline Probably Due to Supreme
Court Decision Affecting Northern
Securities Company, With Profes
sional Trade in Evidence.'
New York, April 20. A cloud of sus
picion and dlstruct, which has been
gathering over the stock market dur
ing the whole week broke today with
some violence. The decline was con
tested in the early stages, but gather
ed force as It was extended. The quick
exhaustion of the buying demand on
occasional rallies was sufficient evi
dence of the professional traders
speculative position which was still
vunerable. They returned to the at
tack accordingly, again and again and
on each successive slump, the weight of
offerings dislodged became greater.
The market proved to be honey-combed
with stop loss orders, which has been
greatly Increased as confidence in the
stability of the market was impaired.
The amount of the decline was suffi
cient to wipe out some margins of the
most substantial classes and in all
classes of speculative holding to im
pair margin to such an extent as to
lead to the very general call for addi
tional collateral. The principal Influ
ence In trading was probably due to
the Northern Securities situation and
great skepticism which was aroused
by a swarm of rumors Centering about
the dissolution of the company and the
plans expected to grow out of it.
Chicago, April 19 Convinced that
George Gould acted In self-defense
when he shot and killed Alonso Ham
mond, a jury In Judge Huthtlla' court
has returned a verdict of not guilt)
and Gould was given hi freedom.
Gould shot and killed Hammond, whom
he accused of having alienated the af
fections of Mrs. Gould. He pleaded
self-defense, however, and said that
Hammond hud tried to draw a revol
ver.
The defense showed that Hammond,
who was a conductor on the Metropoll
tan Elevated railroad, had made the
threut that he would kill Gould on
sight. Gould boarded the elevated train,
he said, to seek Information from
Hammond as to the whereabouts of
Mrs. .Gould and the shooting which
followed was In the presence of num
erous passengers.
