MONEY IS TIED UP,
New York Bankers Try to Sell Stocks
— Few Buyers.
New York, April 26.— The fianneial
Review says the markets o f last week
registered a sharp revulsion o f senti
ment from the hopeful temper o f the
week before. It was the commonly
accepted view o f the close market ob
servers that the advance has been or
ganized by important capital and by
banking interests to stimulate outside
interest in the dealings and to pro
claim a feeling o f confidence at the
financial center which might react on
general business.
The action o f the market at the
opening o f last week was sufficient to
demonstrate the failure o f the experi
ment. Instead o f buying orders, the
country sent orders to sell stocks and
took advantage o f the higher prices
established.
The professions o f contentment with
the conditions o f the steel trade which
had come from official sources in con
nection with the marking up o f stocks
and the predictions o f an increase in
the dividend rate on United States
Steel and o f a favorable quarterly
statement o f earnings, had to be con
trasted with the yielding price o f pig
iron, proposals for reducing output to
avoid an unwieldly surplus accumula
tion, and a falling off in new orders
for different lines o f finished products.

j In Event o f Serious Trouble, Nations
Washington, April 26.— There is con
cern at the State department over the
Chinese riots in Hunan province be
cause o f the possibility that the trouble
may spread rapidly at any moment.
It is realized here that information in
the Chinese provinces travels with
lightning-like rapidity from mouth to
mouth. So, with flaming anti-foreign
liosters being posted in the streets o f
Changsha, it is readily understood
wnat the effect may be on the neigh-
| boring districts.
If the riots spread it is believed that
the foreign nations will stand together
with the Chinese government to help
j bring about order and prevent blood
shed, as during the Boxer troubles.
Effective naval vessels in the vicin
ity appear to be the United States
cruiser Cleveland, the Japanese gun
boat U ji, and the British river gun
boat Snipe.
The Cleveland, which has just ar
rived at Hankow is o f 3,200 tons dis
placement and carries ten 5-inch guns,
eight 6 pounders, two l-pounders, four
Colt automatic and one 3-inch field gun.
The Snipe is a British river gunboat,
which has just been refloated after
having run aground near Changsha.
She is 58 tons displacement, carries
two 6-pounders and four 45-inch Max-
ims.
The Japanese gunboat is 620
tons displacement and carries four 12-
pounders and three Maxims.

▲ light for title to 4,400 acres o f Car
ry Lake In Caddo parish, southwest
Louisiana, and said to bs an oil field
valued at approximately $5.000,000, has
been begun before Commissioner Den
nett of the general land office. The
claimant Is John B.Klng of Texarkana.
Texaa, who made entry over one year
ago under the placer mining act. Ha
claims that the area of the lake was
never turned over by the government
to the State of Louisiana, and as the
attorney general of that Stats did not
put In an appearance yesterday It le
believed that the State la content to let
the general government deal with the
proposition before it In any manner
It may deem advisable.
Farmer Representative John J. Lents
of Columbus, Ohio; J. A. Telller of
Little Rock, Ark., and J. D. Korner,
also of the capital of Ohio, made up
the legal array which presented Mr.
King’s side of the case. At the close
of the argument Commissioner Den
nett took the matter under advisement.
He did not announce when a decision
will be rendered In the matter.
For several months past It has been
believed that the State officials of Lou
isiana were going to put up a vigorous
fight for the lake, which also has a
considerable area In the Stats of Tex
aa Several years ago, whlls prospect
ing over the general oil field In the
section where the lake Is located, Mr.
King discovered that while the Stand
ard Oil Company had located Its wells
on all sides of the property, no attempt
had been made to locate on the lake.
He then went to work, and made a
close examination of the records bear
ing on the question of title to the land
on which the lake lies. This was for
merly government land before the back
water from the Red River overflowed
the section and left the lake. He ascer
talned, so It was pointed out In the ar
gument of the attorneys before Com
missioner Dennett yesterday that the
lake was never turned over by the
general government to the State of
Louisiana, and he lost no time In mak
ing an entry on the 4,400 acres In ques
tion, which Is believed to be the rich
est In the section In point of possible
oil fields.
With his entry he theu made his
plans to bring the matter to the atten
tion of the commissioner of- the gen
eral land office, so as to perfect the ti
tle before he begins operations for lo
cating oil wells. He talked at length
yesterday of the question and pointed
out that aa the lake Is only about two
or three feet deep It will be a compara
tively easy matter to locate oil wells In
all parts of the area covered by the
4,400 acres In question. Mr. King Is
positive from the Investigations he has
made that the area Is of Immense value
and hopes as soon as he gets title to
begin operations
The section In which the lake Is lo
cated In both Texas and Louisiana Is
looked upon by oil experts everywhere
as a particularly rich oil country, and
this fact has been singularly brought
out, It Is declared, by reason of the fact
that the Standard Oil Company has
come Into the section and bought up
all the land bordering on the lake.—

KASPARILLA
This sterling household remedy has
long been recognized as the best and
Safest Blood Purifier, the most successful
prescription for spring humors and such
lisorders of the blood as boils, pimples,
pustules, blotches, sores and cutaneous
•ruptions. Knsparilla is admitted to bs
.he best remedy for that lack of energy
gild the peculiar debility so prevalen)
luring the close of winter and theopenins
}f spring. For derangements of the d l
festive organs it is a natural corrective,
iperuting directly upon the liver and alt
lientary canal, gently but 'Persistently
| itimulating a healthy activity.
Its
leneficial influence extends, however, t<
;very portion o f the system, aiding in th«
^ processes o f digestion anil assimilation oi
I iood, promoting a wholesome, natural
ippetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
oreath, irregularities of the bowels, con-
itipation and the long list o f troubles
> directly traceable to those unwholesoms
' conditions.
Kasparilla dispels drowsi
ness, headache, backache and despond
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract.
It is s
itrengthening tonic of the highest valne.
