Wall Street Slump Follows War Talk and McKenna Tariff Decision
Wall Street fell sharply as markets faced a panic melt with about 1,000,000 in stock value wiped from quotations. Big bulls sold after driving prices up, triggering widespread losses for small speculators. Rumors of trouble with Spain and Attorney General McKenna's 1 percent discrimination ruling in the Dingley tariff spurred fears. Western railroads led declines, followed by rapid drops in major issues like New York Central and Southern. Banks tightened money, deepening the slump as traders rushed to dump holdings. Separately, Tom Walters, hospitalized after a three weeks ago shooting, was released and later ordered back to Haverstraw for trial.
