Although to-days stock market trading
showed falling off in the volume Of business
from the high daily averages Of last week. there
was no impairment of strength. and there was
no disposition on the part Of owners Of securities
to market their holdings. There were no devel-
opmerts Of an adverse nature, and While bear
reports regarding alleged damage to the crops
were freely circulated only trnng rocessions
were brought about and In the majority of is
sues net advances were recorded. As the har-
VcstinC of the crops is wei under way, stories
of damage can have little effect At TINS time ana
hear stories in general are not likely to exert
any particular influence upon prices until some
really unfavora bic development comes, and the
possibility of the appearance OF such factor re-
ceives no serious thought at present The grain
receipts at Chicago last week were again enor-
nous and to-day's reports Of the Western rail
road situation showed record-breaking period
in the history of Western freight traffic Such

MEASURING THE EARTH.
The Mountains and Stars Are Both
Called Into Use by Astronomers

The Mountains and Stars Are Both
Called Into Use by Astron nomers.
The longest distance ever encom-
passed by the human vision, so tar as
the records go, is 1s3 miles, between
the Uncompahgre peak in Colorado,
and Mount Ellen, in Utah. This feat
was accomplished by the surveyors of
the United States coast and geodetic
survey, who are now engaged, in con-
junction with representatives Of other
nations, in making a new measure
ment of the earth, says the Philadelphia
Record.
The observers on the Pacific coast
have been able to signal from Mount
Shasta to Mount Helena, distance of
1870 miles, but have never been able to
get response. Between the two other
peaks communication has been continu-
GUS for ON hour or more on several oc-
casions.
The Uncompahgre is 14,3oo feet in
height, while Mount Ellen is 13,400.
The longest distance that the human
eye ever reached until this record was
made was between Algiers and Spain,
166 miles.
The measuring of the earth, which is
now going on, is no simple task. The
width Of the ocean can only be ascer~
tained by astronomical observations.
The observers at Greenwich and at
Washington note each night the exact
moment Of the rising of certain stars,
and then. by mathematical calcula-
tions, turn the difference in time into
distance. This is corrected and cor
rohorated by other observations upon
other stars, and by series Of expert
ments which furnish an average that
is approximately accurate.
The difference is seldom more than
small fraction of a second, and is at
tributed to atmospheric phenomena.
The Pacific ocean is measured in a
similar manner by joint observations
with the Lick telescope, IN California,
and that of the Imperial university Of
Japan, ut Toxic.
