Henry Clews, the " guardian and
censor of Wull street, In his weekly
letter hi the Fast Urt-Bonlnn writes
Intnrestlnirlv of the situation In the
financial centers as a result of the
excessive speculation of the. past six
months. He says:
Last week's collapse on the Stock
exi-hangc left the stock market In an
unsettled and feverish condition. That
dlvistcr was pnrtlv the rcBult of
economic conditions and partly the
result of a break In the huge specu
lative movements inaugurated In the
last (fiurter of 1906.
The large dividend payments on
Union and Southern Pacific, which
excited so much comment at the time
were the basis of extraordinary spec
ulative operations conducted simul
taneously In London and New York.
Tlie parties conducting these opera
tions were highly succefsful In their
earliest stuges; and large quantities
of these stocks bought at low prices
were profitably distributed during
the first rart of the campaign In both
the domestic and foreign markets.
Subsequently, however, these oper
ations were not entirely successful,
bi.eause lurge amounts of ' stocks
ne.e stUI held by the leaders and
their friend" for which only a very
limited marknt cujld be found out
side of their own buying and selling
to each other. The public as n
whole had kept out of the market
with unusual persistency; the wide
spread distrust created by the ex
pnmres of high finance and the Blrln
geney In money being unquestionably
the chief causes of this reticence.
The strain on the leaders was In
tense, and was seriously aggravated
by high rates for money. The pres
sure of the railroads for new capital
and the tremendous outpouring of
short-term notes ufter January 1
proved to bo the last straw. In a
munition of such tension only a mod
erate shock of some sort was neces
sary to precipitate a collapse. Such
a chock came ostensibly through the
rising hostility of state legislatures
tn,viir,l the railroads.
Hullroiiil managers and the heads
of Iiiiw corporations boenme seri

chiefly to blame, owing to past nils

"In 1897 I had a stomach dUease.

HEBREWS OBSERVE PASSOVER.
Commemorated an Ancient Special
Dispensation.
New York. March 29. Matzoths
nppear upon the table of every ortho
dox Hebrew this evening, when the
Feast of the Passover begins, and for
eight days the faithful are debarred
from using leavened food and ferment
ed liquors.
"Pasach." the Feast of the rass
over. Is in commemoration of the night
when tho Lord, smiting the first-born
of the Egyptians, "passed over" the
houses of the Children of Israel. The
celebration is always held during the
full moon of the month known as Nis
san.
There Is much ceremony connected
with the Seder, or opening festivity
this evening, and there Is ceremony
also In connection with cleansing the
homes, storing away the ordinary
table and kitchen utensils, so that
' the ones dedicated to service for the
Passover time may not be contami
nated. There are hundreds of quaint
observances In connection wnn me
festival, but the best known feature
Is the unleavened bread matsoth
tho baking of which has kept hun
dreds of people employed for many
months In about 40 bakeries In the
metropolis. 1
One large establishment on me earn
side turns out for tho Passover sea
son about 2,600,000 pounds of mat
zoth and motzoth meol, which Is made
by pulverizing the matzoth, and la
used Instead of flour all through the
Passover time. This concern sells Its
product not only to consumers ana
dealers In this city, but sends matzoth
tn oil pnrts of tho United States, and
large quantities to Cuba, Porto Kico
and South America.
In many of the Jewish homes the
unleavened bread Is placed on the
table only as a sy.nbol, and In the
homes ot all the reformed Jows bread
Is not entirely dispensed with In Pass
over time. But among the orthodox
Jews tho custom to use nothing but
unleavened bread 1b strictly adhered
