NEW TARIFF BEFORE JULY.
Unless Present Calculations at

tBS ASSOCIATED frc3s'l
WASHINGTON. Mas %. THE Tariff
leaders of the House do not expect to
have another long tariff Eight in that
body when the bill comes back from the
senate. On the contrary. the belief Is
that ten days will be ample to settle all
differences between the House and Sen
ate. The cnlcula ton is that the Senate
will get through with the bill by June
10 TO Is, so that the ten days allowed for
reconciling differences would permit the
bill to go to the President for his sigma
ture before June closes.
The programme OF action in the House
has been pretty fully outlined. although
no formal action has been taken by the
Ways and Means Committee. As soon
as the bill comes back to the House
Chairman Wilson will move a dlsa gree

T News of the Corn Crop Was Upfavorable to
 the Market.
 New York, July, SQ.-The news from the west concerning the corn crop was decidedly unfavorable to-day and as a result the bears were more aggress- i've than for some time past. They paid particular attention to the grangers and under moderately heavy sales the stocks yielded A to 2 per cent Bur lington and Quincy declined from 739s to 72sh, Rock Island from 65h to 63A, Northwest from 1O3A to 1O1% and St. Paul from 5711s to 56%. Sales of Burling- ton and Quincy were also made at 720 71A, seller 60. The damage to the corn crop following the poor years busi- ness and the losses incurred from the recent strike gave the bears an oppor- tunity to raid the grangers, which was not neglected The old reports about reductions in dividends were revived and they were not without effect.
 Local officials Of the prominent west ern roads admitted that the crops had been damaged by the recent unfavora- ble weather, but thought the dispatches from crop regions have been exagger- ated for market reasons. Nevertheless the bears succeeded fairly well in shak- ing out long stock. They met with little success, however. in the Trunk lines or anthracite coalers, notwith- standing the alleged demoralized condi- tion Of the coal trade and piiing up of stocks at tidewater points. Consolf- dated Gas made sensational break of g points to Ill, with a recovery at the close to 114A. On Saturday the final in the stock was 120., The sales of the stock were only S,4SO shares and of this one house sold Z. 900 shares. The ostensible reason for the break was the completion of the East River Gas company tunnel from Ravenswood, L. l., to New York city, thereby placing the East River company in a position to compete with the city companies There was talk of a sharp reduction in the price of gas and lower dividends by the older companies.
 American Sugar ruled strong through out and the development at Washing ton, ,fas reported by private wire. rather confirmed the statements made by the bull pool in the stock from time to time that the refining interest will be taken care of in the new tariff bill. It was stated that the conferees had been together and that the senate conferees had again insisted upon the passage of their bill. The stock advanced from L03A to 1O5ss and closed at 1o4A against 103A on Saturday. American Tobacco sold up 1h to SSh, General Electric was weaker and Whiskey steady.
 Speculation left off about firm. In he specfalties Manhattan fell 1h to 13h, Chicago Junction and Union Stock Yards to 93,Alton and Terre Haute to 30, Edison Illuminating of New Fork 3N to s5A and Peoria and East .rn 2 to 3. Net changes show losses ,f f to 1h per cent. in the active ss. K z

 The extensive peach orchards in Deep River are badly affected this year by the yellows, which caused the fruit raisers there a heavy loss last year. Many of the peach trees are complete ly ruined. Commissioners Hubbard of Aiddletown and Sill of saybrook, who visited the orchards. say that the yel- lows prevails in the peach orchards this season to Q greater extent than they have ever knQwn of before.
