10 Passing Impressions of Finance j { By Louis Guenther : | Editor of the Financial World I I 4 Confidence received a solar plexis blow &s the result of the unexpected charge brought against the St. Paul Railway by Commissioner Harlan, ot the Interstate Commerce Commission, of serious Irregularities In accounting of its earnings. The essence of tho charge is that the road padded the earnings of its Puget Sound extension so it could obtain a better price for its bonds and when this was accomplished the road reversed its position by con cealing a part of its profits for the purpose of influencing an increase in freight rates. In other words, if Comiul&ioner Harlan can substantiate his serious allegations, the St. Paul tried to catch the Investing public going and the Interstate Commerce Commission com ing. However, the last wortj about this new development In our railroad financing, which cannot help but have a most unfavorable effect upon invest ment sentiment unless a satisfactory explanation is forthcoming, has not been said. We shall hear more from it, for this story of wrongdoing, if It is proven, strikes at the very founda tions of confidence on which billions of dollars in railroad securities rest. Not a single person would have ever suspected the St. Paul management of being capable of a resort to irregu larities (to quote Commissioner Har lan) similar In character to those which were responsible for putting the New Haven and Rock Island and the Frisco hors de combat. Like Caesar's wife Poppea, St. Paul was above sus picion, and consequently its securities were always prime favorites with in vestors. There were some who ques tioned the road's wisdom in extending to the coast, but none dared ever ques tion its honesty. It is on this account that there is danger that fear among the bondhold ers and stockholders of St. Paul may travel on the wings of wind spreading terror and arouse a heedless desire to sell what they have, not knowing whether the worst is known or not. It is the uncertainty always which plays such havoc with Investors. There is no damage so great as that arising from a panic of fear. Even the state ment Commissioner Harlan made that the charges are no reflection upon the road's present financial condition and that the earnings are favorable will not serve entirely to still the disquiet. The manner of making this charge has brought upon the commission a great deal of criticism. Washington bears are in clover. They have grown fat on the never-ceasing attacks the politicians have hurled at our cor porations. The statement is made, and it seems logical, that as long as the commission found that the St. Paul road's solvency was not in question, and as long as the earnings are favor able it could have couched its lan guage in different and soothing phrase ology, Instead of resorting to the sen sational and flat declarations which inflicted suffering and losses on per sons who are defenseless in protecting themselves. Those persons are the stockholders and the bondholders who are the principal losers in the decline in St. Paul securities last week. Serious friction has developed be tween the Chicago. Rock Island and Pacific Railroad, the operating com pany, and the protective committee which is acting for the collateral 4 per cent, bondholders. President Schu inaker sought to have the committee publish a statement he had prepared to show the road would need at least $49,000,000 to completely rehabilitate itself. The figures the committee would not accept, claiming that the road's last annual report indicated no such condition existed as was reported.

Palmyra, Pa. •Branch Office, 307 Patriot Building, Harrisburg. WEDNESDAY EVENING and before believing It true would llrst have an independent audit made ol the company's books. But the Rock Island's president was undeterred and he published his statement in the newspapers as an advertisement, mucn to the annoyance of the members ot the protective bondholders' committee. In some circles the suspicion Is enter tained that the statement emanates from the Reid-Moore faction with the purpose of gathering in at a cheap price the collateral bonds, as they oc cupy the strategic position of dictating the terms of reorganization and the "Irish dividend" to be assessed on the holding company's preferred and com mon stock. The cost of living is going down. Tills Is indicated by the index figures published by the London Economist. For the week they have lost some where near 2-1 points. Still, when the reduction is distributed among the out lays housewives must make to keep the larders tilled and the family happy it Is of such an infinitesimal fraction that they won't feel It. Living cost, anyway, worries people very little as long as the wherewithal upon which to live is easily obtainable. The per capita wealth of the country was never so large, so it Is apparent that this subject is no longer receiving the seri ous consideration that our economists think it deserves. First it is Mexico, then Peru and then Brazil where revolutionary upris ings break out. Our South American republics are once more proving the truth of the claim that they are mer curial countries. But Brazil's troubles are engendered by too rapid exploita tion of its resources and the conse quent drain upon its credit, which, to maintain intact, simply means in creased taxation. Brazil's nonsensical scheme of "valorizing" the coffee crop by keeping it out of the market until a satisfactory price was obtainable has had a large share In causing the pres ent trouble. Municipal bonds are still very much in demand. Standard Oil stocks have recovered a part of their loss and these shares are going into hands of out right buyers instead of margin traders. But the railroads are finding it in creasingly difficult to borrow money on reasonable terms, so much has their credit suffered by criticism of the past few years, whether justified or not. Chesapeake and Ohio, which had to borrow $33,000,000, had to pay as high as 7 per cent, for the money and agree with the bankers to set aside liberal sums out of earnings ever} - year for five years for improve, ment in order to make the note issue more secure. To expect the stock market to have acted otherwise than it did under the bruises that have been inflicted upon it would have been to anticipate the workings of a miracle. Stocks could not stand up under the wave of re newed liquidation which was started by the St. Paul and the Rock Island revelations. For some time the mar ket will be under a spell of doubt and expectation of further surprising ana unpleasant revelations.

COiTY'SJURYWHEEL IS«TOO SMUIL County Commissioners Officially Notified of This Fact After Drawing of Talesman Commts s on e r r" drawing of the April Common Pleas talesmen when the jury board asked that a new wheel be provided. The County Commission ers promised to look Into the question. The present "wheel," from which thousands of names have been drawn, has been in service since ISSB. It is made of heavy pasteboard and the opening from which the paper slips bearing talesmen aro drawn, is dis colored with the broken waxen seals of years and years. When the wheel was first put into service It was made for a capacity of 300 names. Since then the need for juries and the additional number re quired, has made it necessary to prac tically jam the wheel with 900 names each year. In the years to come it is believed more will have to bo put in. so the jury commissioners to-day asked for a wheel with a capacity for 2,000. The wheel is eight inches wide and has a diameter of twenty inches; a wheel with a twenty-eight-inch diameter and twelve-Inch width is what the jurv commissioners ask for.

SUFFRAGE WORKERS SHOULD HAVE VOTE [Continued from First Page.] one portion of the family of man to assume among the people of the earth a position different from that which they have hitherto oc cupied, but one to which the laws of nature and of nature's God en title them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes that impel them to such a course. We hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain in alienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights governments are instituted, among men, deriving their just powers front the consent of the governed. We belieev that this county will fall to attain the high standards set forth in the Declaration of In dependence while women are held in political servitude, and that no government can properly perform its function or discharge its obli gation to its citizens while com pelling one-half ol' Its population to bear its burden though denying them the right to share Its privi leges. \\ here the Vote Comes in As the Woman Suffrage party of Pennsylvania, we are organized to secure the ballot for the women of Pennsylvania on the same terms upon which It is granted to the men of the State. This party shall ze nonpartisan in that it shall not ally itself with any other political party or organiza tion which has any object other than that of seiurlng the ballot for the women of the State. We seek and believe that we shall be accorded the support of all citizens who have faith in a representative form of govern ment. We pledge ourselves to the task of securing the political freedom of woman, not In any spirit of self-seeking, but with a desire to secure that political and economic justice for all men and women which is only possible In a free state, where the government rests not upon the consent of a frac tion of the people, however large, but upon that of the whole peo ple. The conference this morning was a joint meeting of the seventy-five party leaders and heads of organization working with the party. One of the features of the morning was the reading of letters from five of the men who have announced them selves as candidates for Governor and United States Senator. Letters from Vance C. McCormick, A. Mitchell Pal mer, Wiliam Draper LPWIS, Glfford Plnchot, and J. Benjamin Dlmmlck, either endorsed the cause of suffrage or declared In favor of the submission of the question to the people of Penn sylvania. Each member of the Suffrage Party Is to pick out twenty ment for whom she Is to be responsible during the campaign for votes. These selections are to be decided upo nat precinct or block meetings of the suffragists, and then every effort of each woman Is to be turned toward convincing men for whom she Is responsible. Each woman will be provided with a card index system. If a man Is opposed to suffrage he Is represented by a blue card, white means Indifferent and vel low means favorable to the cause. The effort of each woman is to make her file of cards yellow. 4 &ARRISBURG TELEGRAPH EVANGELICALS TO MEET AT CARLISLE Conference in Session at Berwick Assigns Ministers to Nearby Charges Special to The Telegraph Berwick, Pa., March 11. —At yes terday's session of the Contral Penn sylvania Evangelical conference, Car lisle was chosen as the pluce of next year's meeting.

March 11.—Astronom ers at the United States Naval Obser- Ivatory here, like their fellow scien tists In other parts of the country, were anxiously waiting to-day for the shades of night to fall with their instruments all primed for observations during the almost total eclipse of the moon which takes place to-night. It is the only one of the four eclipses this £ear, two of the sun and two of the moon, which will be observable over the entire United States. According to calculations of obser vatory officials here the eclipse will begin at 9.41 o'clock eastern standard time; reach the middle of eclipse at 11.12 and leave the shadow at 12.44 a. m. Thursday. Differences in the exact time of various cities will cause the eclipse to begin therefore In Bos ton at 9.67; in New York at 9.47; In Cincinnati at 9.04; In Chicago at 8.51; .In St. Louis at 8.41; in Denver at 7.42;. and in San Francisco at 6.32. BODY OF MINER IS RECOVERED TODAY Rescuers Find Harry Lynch Buried Under Tons of Rock in Williamstown Mine Special to The Telegraph Williamstown, Pa., March 11.—Res cue work In recovering the bodies of John Welker and Harry Lynch, miners who were killed by an explosion of gas in the old slope of the Williamstown colliery yesterday, continued during all of last night. Tons of rock and coal had fallen on top of the unfortunate men when the explosion occurred and the work was exceedingly difficult and dangerous. About 10.45 o'clock this morning the body of Harry Lynch was recovered. It was found under a great mass of rock and coal and at least 100 tons of debris had to be moved before the body was found. It was in a badly crushed condition. About 7 o'clock the men found a can. la mo and tools of the dead miners. The entire colliery has been shut down and all employes, except those engaged in the rescue work, have been sent home. Yesterday's fatal accident occurred while Harry Lynch and his brother in-law, Andrew Mack, were at work In a breast in the Primrose vein in the old slope of the Williumstown colliery. The props and plank which held the "gob," or loose coal, in the breast gave way and left the coal rush down. Mack jumped to the side and held fast to some timber until rescued by some fellow-workmen, while Lynch could not get to the side and therefore went down with the rush of coal and be came entombed. The breast had been worked up something over 300 feet and would have been finished in a few more days. After the officials learned of the ac cident they started rescue forces to get Lynch out and also sent John Welker, who was one of the rescue men. along the air trunk to close the trap doors or outlets and force all the air possible into the breast where Lynch was entombed, so that if he should be alive he would not smother. While doing this work Welker walked Into a body of gas, which was no doubt pushed out by the rush of coal, and an explosion followed which killed him. His body was found shortly after the explosion by his fellow rescuers. He was burned and a hole cut in his forehead, which Indicated that something hit hiin in the explo sion which caused his death. Mr. Weliker had a farm a few miles east of Gratz and was expecting to stop working in the mines at the end of this month and go to farming. He was married and was about 34 years old. He is survived by his wifo and six small children. Mine Superintendent Auman and the bosses, with a big force of rescue men, worked continuously to find Lynch. Harry Lynch ' was a single man, about 27 years old. He was a son of William Lynch, of town. The town feels shocked at this acci dent, coming only three weeks after Charles Raudenbush and John Crozier lost their lives by an explosion of gas, and only a short time previous to that Mr. Etzwiler lost his lil'e by a fall of rock, this making five fatal accidents and at least fifteen nonfatal injuries |in this year. Several of the men in -1 jured are still at the hospital. PEHUL STEEL HHHEB IContinued from First Page.] pany, of Pennsylvania, of wTiich J. V. W. Reynders is the vice-president.

Work of New Company At the Steelton offices of the Penn sylvania Steel Company this morning' it was stated that the new company will not engage in any manufacturing business. The principal object of the new company, it was said, will be to engage in actual construction work. Instead of letting a contract for con struction work to the Pennsylvania Steel Company, as formerly, all con tracts will be let to the new com pany. The incorporation of this new company is a step in the new policy of the Pennsylvania Steel Company to' widen its field of operations and to indulge in more construction work. The new company, it was stated at the Steelton offices this morning, will en ter the field of construction on a large scale. An effort will be made to secure more contracts for erecting large buildings, bridges, etc. Mot to liuild Memphis Bridge The new company will market the entire output of the bridge and con struction department of the Steelton plant. It is believed that the new firm will also market the output of the new rolling mills and structural steel man ufacturing departments that are ru mored will be added to the. Steelton plant in the near future. While the new company will do all the construction work for the Penn sylvania company. It will not build the new bridge across the Mississippi river at Memphis. The contract for tht erection of this big bridge was award ed the Pennsylvania Steel Companj last tveek and the deal was closed before the incorporation of the new company.
