LABOR AND POLITICS UNSETTLE MARKE Roosevelt Candidacy and Coal Strike Outlook Send Stocks Down and Trading it pull Philadelphia, Feb. 26. The com binatlon of labor arid political unrest proved to much for the New York stock market today, and prices yield ed readily to very moderate selling in the early trading, with very slight re covery later. The formal announce ment of Theodore Roosevelt's candl dacy for the Presidency, although ex pected, made it certain tfiat the Issues which are agitating the business world will be foremost before the country in th next few months, with the out come in doubt as yet. The beginning of the coal strike In England, the spreading of textile la bor troubles Massachusetts, and tne approach of the time for a show down between operators and miners In the anthracite district also becloud ed tha dutlook.

Zortmsn Samuel M. Zortman, aged 41 years, met with a horrible death Monday morning at Schuylkill avenue and Buttonwood street, his skull being crushed under the hoofs of a pair of norses he was leading. Mr. Zortman was employed by Con tractor Samuel Bobst. Eighteenth and Cotton streets.

This mornlna he was taking a horse from the Bobst stable and another from the South Sixth street car barn to the Schuylkill fire engine house, where they were to be clipped. He had no trouble until he was on Schuylkill avenue near But tonwood street, when he slipped on the wet street. This caused the horses to shy and they reared. Zortman held on to the lines and this Is what caused his death. As the horses reared he fell on his back.

Joel Krick, Edward Geisewite and Williams, business men of that corner, saw the plight of the man and called to him to let go of the reins. He evidently did not hear them. In his efforts to free himself he rolled under the animals. His skull was crushed in over the right eye and his body has several other marks which showed where the animals trod on him. Messrs.

Krick. Williams and Geise wlte rushed to his assistance. He was carried to Gelsewite's store and in the excitement both ambulances were summoned. He was dead when the am bulance arrived. Death, it is believed, was instantaneous.

Zortman was a native of Snyder county. He was employed In the mines about Shamokin until about Ave years ago, when he came to this city. He resided with his sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Derr, until she died about six months ago. he was em ployed on Kalbach's farm near Shllllngton.

He worked off and on for Contractor Bobst. He was a member of the Evangelical Church. His wife and the following children are living In the coal regions: Edna, LeRoy, Joseph and Christopher. A niece, Mrs. Angelina Kuhns, who re sides at 1309 Cotton street, is the only Reading relative.

The body was re moved to Undertaker Auman morgue. Mrs. Peter Lelir Following an Illness extending over four months, death ended the suffer ngs of Mrs. Annie Lehr, widow of Peter Lehr, aged 31 years, who died at her home, 520 North Eleventh street, at 3.40 o'clock Monday after oon. Death was partially due to dropsy.

Mrs. Iehr was born in Reading, the aughter of Frank and Agnes Klopp, both deceased. She was a member St. Luke Lutheran church, and of St. Luke Mite Society.

One brother, Irvin Klopp, and one sister, Kate, wife of Charles Bolig, both of Reading, survive. During the past two years five mem bers of Mrs. Klopp's family have died. Mrs. Enoch Angstadt Amanda, wife of Enoch Angstadt, died at the residence of her husband, one and a half miles south of New Jerusalem, of heart failure and will be buried on Thursday.

Interment will be made in the New Jerusalem cemetery, Rev. William F. Bond officiating. Deceased was born November 18, 1848. Her age was 63 years, 3 months and 3 days.

She was a member of the Lutheran congregation of that place. Mrs. Angstadt leaves her hns band, five sisters and the following children: Mrs. Mary E. Olinger, Reading; Mrs.

Ema Rolston. Philadel phia; Mrs. Millie Edris, Myerstowrf Mrs. Katie Redcay, Reading; Mrs. Hannah King, Reading; George, of Bowers; David and Frank, of Oley Line; Harry, of Pricetown, and Rob ret, at home.

There are 27 grand children. Mrs. Mflrrtet Hopp Mrs. Harriet Hopp (nee Emore), aged 64 years, died at 3 p. m.

yester day at her home, 237 South Third street, from a stronk which she had sustained only an hour before. She had been in ill health for several years, a strange coinciaence wnicn adds a note of pathos to the fatality is that her daughter, Mrs. Clark, died almost at the same time exactly 10 years before. Mrs. Hopp was a native of Exeter township, although she spent practl call her entire life in Reading.

She was an active member of St. John Reformed church. Her husband, Jeremiah, and a daughter, Mrs. Ida E. Houck, and five grandchildren remain.

John Huber. Stricken with pneumonia a week ago, John HUDer, 1015 Mulberry street, a P. R. track foreman, died this morning at 4.45 in St Joseph's hospital. He was aged 38 years.

He was In the best of health until last Monday at 4.45 a. m. in St. Joseph ing ill. Thursday he was removed to the institution, He was a son of Ja Aivny Vilh Catarrh A Filthy Disease A Safe Old Fathioned Remedy Quickly Relieves All DU tresung Symptoms If you are subject to frequent colds, or if you have any of the distressing symptoms of catarrh, such as stuffed up feeling In the head, profuse discharge from the nose, sores In the nose, phlegm in the throat causing hawking and spitting, dull pain in the head or ringing In the ears, just anoint the nostrils or rub the throat or chest with a little Ely's Cream Balm, and see how quickly you will get relief.
