STOCKS GIVEN SUPPORT.
Downward Tendency in Wall Street'
Appears to be Checked. .
NEW YORK, May 22.-——.’\uothcr,
heavy wave of liquidation in the stock‘
market early today sent stocks tumb-
ling from i to 3 points. The resmup
tion of selling was accompanied by
various bearish reports of gold exports
and crop damage. The downward
course was aided by operations for the
short, accounts. Evident uncomplclcd
liquidation ‘wus observed in Union Pa~
ciiic. Steel common and Pennsylvania,
but support was tendered these stocks
and the bears scurried to cover their
short contracts. Reading on heavy
transactions went. below par under a
ilood of selling orders and broke from
an opening of 101 34 to 98 1—2 before
the covering of shorts held it from a
further slump. Liquidation finally cic
hausted itself and Reading began to
recover. New York Central dropped
from .112 1~'.’. to 110 1-2, while the
whole list. hugged under the ceaseless
outpour of stocks. While the flood of
stocks was in progress there were re-
ports that banks had been closely
scrutinizing collateral for loans and
had in some instances called loans
where the security behind them was
not altogether satisfactory. The mar-
ket began to turn after the first hour.
when a subsidence of selling was ob-
served. Fri 8 rose a point on an av-
erage throughout the list on closing of
the short contracts. The market was
feverish and excited on the rally.
Shortly before noon the failure of 111.
B. Havens & Company. members of the
Stock Exchange, was announced on
the floor. The market held well on the.
news and floor operators declared that
the effect of the failure had been dis-
counted.

_ Senate Committee Says He Did Not
Use Money or Liquor.
HARTFORD, May 22.—lt is declar-
ed by the. Senate committee on COli
tested seats that senator Franklin L.
Honian or his political agent. Town
Clerk E. E. Whittaker, of New Ha-
ven. are not guilty of corrupt prac-
tices in the eleCtlon in the Tenth Sen-
atorial district. The committee. con-
sistlng of Senators Waller Grant and
McNeil in a unanimous report made to
the Senate today gave George 1. Fox.
of New Haven, leaveto withdraw on
his petition for unseatlng Mr. Homan.
it found that. Mr. Homan did not use
money or liquor to promote his candl-
dacy or election. and it finds further
that none of the allegations made by
Mr. Fox in his petition is supported by
the evidence produced at the hearing.
The Senate voted to pay Lynn W.
Wilson of Bridgeport. $173.00 and Sen-
ator Brown $200 as expenses in the
content over the seat of Senator
Brown. James N. S’tnlcs put in a bill
for $375 for legal fees In dcfendlm,
the scat which he held before Mr. llo-
num was declared to be the rightful
senator from the Tenth.
Senator Donovan objected to this
bill. saying that the statute ony al‘
lowed 8100. Senator Spellacy thought
the amount none too llbcrnl. Senato.
McGovern said that he noticed Senator
Spellucy never imposed anything
which gave money to the legal frater-
nity. He thought Senator llonoyui.
was right. Senator Waller read prct‘c-
dents wherein large sums had been
paid in contests of this kind and also
referred to the fact that the senator
had voted $1.200 as extra compensation
to the clerk when the statute said that
$3,500 should be the sum for every»
thing. The motion to table the bill
was defeated and its payment was or-
dered and $100 was voted to Mr, States
for his services as a senator. The ibli
oi‘ Senator lioman of $702.06. his ex-
penses in two contests, was approved.

it is any of the volumes are soaked not
a few destroyed completely and hund-

total loss. Three companies respond-

the arrival of the. apparatus hand ex-

less. however, no the fire was in a
blind attic above the third floor of
Seabury Hall. where is Was impossible
to reach it directly. The blaze started,
it is believed. from hot coals dropped
from the furnace ofatinuers who had
been at work on the coping of the
building. The fire had a good start be-
fore its presence was manifested by
smoke.

short time every vollufi and pamphlet
on the second floor, comprising the
entire working reference library, had
been removed to a point of safety.
Only a small section of the entire li-
brary. covering several hundred square
feet of flooring. was untou ed by the
water. A complete set of i re "Annals
de Chlmie." valued at $5.000 were
unharmed. as were also other rare and
priceless books. How many priceless
historical volumes. of great traditional
value. how many volumes endeared to
the college by association. may be
damaged or lost is at present Impos-
sible to tell.
All of the actual damage to the,
building and books is covered by In-
surunce. When the fire was practical-
ly extinguished at the end of Mo hours
