Sir Wilfrid Laurler. bo sustained on tho paramount issue it had mado of reciprocity between Canada and tho United States. S!r Wilfrid Lauricr is elected in Quebec East, as tbo seat bad not been contested. The Liberals lost ground In practically every provlnco of tho Dominion. Where they won. their majorities wero small. Whero tho Conservatives won their majorities were tremendous. Ontario, the leading province of Canada, declared almost unanimously against tb' administration nnd reciprocity. Robert L.

Meantime he ordered the collision gates and doors closed, thus stopping
the Inrush of water. Tho craft Immediately righted itself and the comman
der decided he could reach Southamp
ton under the Olympic's own power.
The Hawke had been undergoing
steam trials following extensive re
pairs at Portsmouth and was traveling
at great speed when she overtook the
Olympic The cruiser was passing tne liner to starboard when suddenly tho
former drew in and crashed Jnto the steamer's quarter about twenty feet from the stern. It Is thought the warship was drawn against the other ves
sel by the suction. After tbe impact the Hswko drew astern and her crew
threw the collision mats over a badly
damaged bow.
Excitement, But No PanicThere was great excitement, but no
panic, on board the liner, tho passengers of which were reassured by the dfllcers. The weather was somewhat
thick and there was a squall at the
time of the accident, but the haze was
not sufficient to obscure either vessel
from the other.
The Olympic sailed from Southamp
ton, bound for New lork by way oi
Cherbourg and Quecnstown. She sailed
with the largest list of first-class passengers that ever started across the
Atlantic on one ship. Tlie nrst caDin passengers numbered 724. twenty-four more than her previous record. Among them were between twenty and thirty
American millionaires. About szso.ooo bad been paid In passage money. All told there were nearly 3.000 people on board.
New York. Sept. 23. The stock market was overwhelmed by a wild
outburst of selling which for a time
resulted In demoralization and swift
depreciation In market values. Alarm
at the reports of approaching dlssolu
tion of the United States Steel cor poration resulted in an enormous vol
ume of selling by holders of tbe cor
poration's stock In all parts of the
country and Europe. The defeat of reciprocity in the Canadian elections contributed to the unsettled condition
of tho market. Not since the panic
which crew out of the Northern Pa-
ciflc "corner" ten years ago has such
a convulsion of the stock market oc
curred.
Wall street was In utter confusion.
Officials of the steel corporation main
tained their silence and the situation
remained virtually unchanged. The only fact which stood out from the confused rumors and opinions was a
definite statement from Attorney Gen
pral Wickersham. who Is at Bretton

Bogroff declined counsel. Everyone
was amazed at bis calmness and the
firmness of his volco as he related the history of his life. He also described haw ho had deceived the police in get
ting the opportunity to assassinate the premier, but did not betray any of his accomplices. He heard tho sentence of death pronounced without a tremor.
The sentence must be conflrmed by
the commander' of tho military district before Bogroff can be hanged.
Thousands at Stolypin Funeral. The funeral of Premier Stolypin was
held In the Pechersky monastery. Dep
utations came to Kiev from all parts
of the empire to attend the ceremony and laid over 200 wreaths on the caffalque. Thousands of persons, unable to gain admission to the church, grouped themselves outsldo the edifice. After the ceremony had been completed three volleys were fired by the troops as a inilltary honor. Numerous subscriptions were received toward the erection of a national monument to M. Stolypin. On it will be inscribed the words ho uttered in the duma: "You want a great upheaval. We
