Poaslblllty of Rece-iverahln for- Rail

Attacking Prices. ' "
NEW YORK, Arrll . The announcement
of tha Erie financial plan, which waa made
after the stock market closed on Saturday,
waa without effect today unless, the torpid
tata of the trading was Influenced by the
peculiarities of the announcement. These
were tha conditions attached to the furnish
ings of-new capital by the purchase of
$5,0i0.ouo of tha new notes that all holders
of the notea maturing on Wednesday" of this
wink should accept tha newly issued three
. year notea In exchange and tha absence
of any assurance that notes not presented
for assent to this plan would be taken care
of by redemption In cash. The tone of the
official offer Implied a threat that If any
of the notea wera withheld tha plan would
be allowed to lapae. The alternative would
be a receivership. In view of the fat that
the majority of tbe maturing notes are
known to be in tbe hands of those favorable
to the plan, and tbat being unsecured, the
notes would fare badly under a receiver
ship, the chancea for the suecess of the
plan were considered good, either by be
lated assent of. outstanding not holders
rsther than force a receivership,, or by
belated provision - for redemption of a
small minority of tha Issue, by a cash pro
vision, rather than force, tha failure of the
plan. Thai position offered waa sufficiently
iellete, however, to- suggest a suspension
of judgment on tha effects until tha matter
Is definitely, adjusted, which -would be when
the old notes mature on Wednesday. The
spasmodic jump In prices . of stocks on
Saturday was accepted as, In soma part,
an expression of opinion on the Kris plan
so far aa perfected, and this added to the
disinclination to extend - the -movement.
There waa soma significant comment also
on the longer consequences of tha meas
ures for financing the Erie, which repre
sent, obviously, a temporary expedient with
dependence on future Improvement of con
ditions to furnish ultimate provision for a
permanent settlement. . With the remain
ing uncertainty over the Erie plan there
was the doubt aa to how far the effect on
the market of It assumed success had
been exhausted.
Bears were lmld about attacking the
market from fear that final success on
Wednesday for the effort to seoure a
change of the old Erie note for new
would prove a new stimulating influence
on the market Tha stock market was
held In suspended animation throughout the
day aa a consequence of these considera
tions. The price of copper made soma re
covery In London and the effect was good
on the group of copper Industrial stocks.
Railroad traffic officials expressed some
increased confidence In the promise for
growth of traffic, but they had no actual
Increase In the movement to report. Ad
vices of winter wheat conditions continued
favorable, with substantial sustaining ef
fect on prices of stocks. The persistence
of the demand upon London for gold and
decline In the sterling exchange rate at
Paris kept alive discussion of the export
from New York. Rarea here were practic
ally unchanged and demand for money on
time was so light as to offer slight oppor
tunity for placing funds.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par

CATTLEt Receipts of cattle this morning
were extremely light, only atxty-elght car
being reported In, a against 266 cars on
Monday of last week. At tha same time re
ceipts at othsr points were also disappoint
ingly small. It was very evident that the
sharp break In cattle, pricea last week had
had immediate influences upon receipts.
Under such circumstances It wa not sur
prising that prices soared upward at a
rapid rate.
Buyer of beef steer were only early in
the morning looking for supplies and sales
of desirable killers ranged anywhere from
10336c higher. . It fact pretty much all the
deollne of laat week was put back on today.
Cow and heifers advanced along with
beet steers, they, too, recovering most of
last week's loss. Pretty much everything
was sold early In tho morning.
There were hardly enough stockers or
feeders In sight to really make a test ot
thfe market, but It la safe to quote good
feedera as strong, with other stuff at least
steady.

COURT REBUKE CAUSES DEATH
Remarkable Caeo of Jaror Wk Asa
seated to Coin Flipping;
for Verdict.
John W. Casey, aged ' forty-three, a
master Iron molder of New York City,
was called to serve on a Jury for the
first time last February. He enjoyed the
novelty of the situation for several dsys,
but on February 26 he returned to his
home, silent and depressed. Neither his
wife nor his daughters could cheer htm
up. He wouldn't tell what troubled him,
and early in the evening he went to bed.
But first he called his sons and told them
that the jury on which he had served,
had been hearing evidence in the suit for
damages brought against the Metropolitan
Street Railway by Thomas Dickson for the
death of his 4-year-old daughter, LI 11. He
told how, after deliberating fqr a day and.
a half, he and his fellow-jurors had Set
tled the case by flipping a coin. One of
them, he explained, had had a business
deal to put through, and further delay
would have occasioned him s big loss.
"I couldn't tell the wife and tha girls,"
he pleaded with his" sons. "But, oh, th
scoring that. Justice Guy gave ua! I can
not bear to think of It. And he fined us
each $60. You boys must break It to
mother and the girls. They'll see In the
papers, If you don't, that I. am a tils,
graced man." J ,
His sons tried to console him. They
pointed out to him that hs had been un
familiar with Jury duty and had acted in
nocently. He was not disgraced, they
aald, and they urged him to pluck up his
courage and face any critic who appeared.
But the father was not to be consoled.
In the morning the unhappy man facoi
his family with ahame. Their, tender ef
forts to show him that they did not blame
him afforded him only temporary relief.
Day by day he grew more despondent and
morose. He ate scarcely .any food, plead
ing that shame had driven away his appe
tite. His wife and daughters labored
with him, and his aons tried to encourage
him. Their "efforts had little success.
He neglected his business and spent his
day wandering aimlessly t around the
house, his night In a pontUiually unsuc
cessful struggle to sleep. He could not
forget what h himself termed his dis
grace, and a week ago he took to his bed.
From a very heavy man of 29 pounds,
he wasted In a month to 200 pounds. Doc
tors prescribed for him. Mr. Casey duti
fully took the medicines which his wife or
daughters administered, but drugs could
not ease his mind.
"My heart - Is breaking," hs said sim
ply. "Boon. If I cannot forget, I shall
die." '
Day by day his family, aaw that he was
failing. Mr. Casey reallttd It, too, but ha
seemed not to care. He dd not leave his
bed, and on Sunday night he was yery
weak. He aald good-night to his sons
and daughters and to his wife, and ap
parently he went to sleep. At' 4:10 o'clock
Monday morning. March 30, he died. New
York Times. " - "r
