There has been little disposition publicly

we have heard great deal of comment.

which those who are engaged in colossal
business transactions do not often take. II
has been said by those who have hal op-

young men of Letters generation

intellectually as a student of no especial

tnat college life was no test of a mans
ability and that he who had been deemed
uppromising when idling away 4 life under
the elms at Cambridge. had shown himself
d master IN the great world of business
strategy and diplomacy
college presidents have noticed the ef-
iect OF these reports upon some of their
students. Others have observed that youny

1t was said this morning by one OF our

The Marines Camped on the Shore OF

1t Is realized at the Navy Department
that the situation of the marines on the

uncomfortable one. suffering, as they do from
harassing night attacks that prevent them
from securing mIch-reeded rest and pre-

However. the department is assured that
there Is no real danger in the situation, be-
cause II seriously threatened by an over
whelming force the marines can, with very
short notice, retire aboard the American
warships, where they would be in perfect
safety. 1t is mainly sentiment, embodied
In determination to keep the American
nag flying over the place where it was first
planted, and thus retaining for the navy
the honor Of obtaining the first position on

the Bay OF Guantanamo. 1t Is true, how
ever, that an important secondary purpose
will be served by their presence. in that it
will afford proper cable station when the
French cable between Haiti and Santiago
Is spliced. 1t Is possible to operate a cable
from a ship in the harbor, but the COM

the method Is undesirable as long as there
Is any possibility of finding land terminal

If there was ever any question about the
success of the new per cent war loan. 1t
subscriptions are already beginning to
come in at the Treasury Department. The
assurance of the success of the loan, how
ever. has been made absolutely certain by
two propositions, each covering the entire
present Issue of 5000, 100000.
The subscription of the National City
Bank. the Central Trust Company and YER
milye Company, made the day the loan
was opened, was for any part of the total
issue that should not be taken by the pub
lie. Ahothe' proposal was forwarded the
same day, covering the entire amount,
from ]. Pierpont Morgan and number of
associates. The spirit shown in that propo-
sition is particularly praiseworthy. 1t is
set forth in preamble to the proposition,
which is as follows:
Whereas, biH to !, provide ways and
means to meet war expenditures has been
passed by Congress; and
Whereas, 1t is the opinion of the under
signed that altheughlthe amount offered
will be largely oYer-spbscribed, 1t is essen

By this preamble the subscribers express
the opinion that the loan, will be subscribed
for independently, of this action or their
part, and besides they have no wish to in

acter of the loan as desired by Congress
and the administration, their only desire is
that without any delay whatever the SOW
ernment should be assured of the full
amount asked for. .-...--

Regrets the Tea Tax-Japan IndfRer-
ent to the Philippines.
The Japanese minister. Mr Toru Hoshi
was seen at the japanese legation today,
and talked in an informal way between
cigar puffs, on some Of the recent phases
of the war as they relate to the interests
of the United States and Japan. Mr. Hoshi
expressed special regret at the recent ac-
tion of Congress in placing a duty of 10
cents per pound on tea. The effect of the
law, he says, will be comparatively small
against other countries as compared with
that against Japan. whose trade being In
cheap teas. will be baby hurt by uni
form tea duty.
While Mr.. Hoshi does not question the
right of the United States to make It's own
scheme Of internal taxation, he thinks q
large tea duty was not expedient at this
time when the United States Is embarked
on large enterprises in the far east Mr.
Hoshi says that Japan has no longings to-
ward the Philippines. On the contrary, he
says the acquisition of the big islands of
Formosa. which China ceded to Japan af-
ter the late war. has given Japan quite
enough colonial territory to develop.

NEW YORK, June 15-The course OF
prices In today's stock market reflected
considerable irregularity. but the influence
OF recent liquidation was especially mark
ed In the more active issues. Cautious huy-
ing OF the right sort was noticeable around
the low level, but the volume of the new
business was not large.
London continues to send over buying or
ders on every concession. and disregards
the room gossip which Is employed by
traders to depress prices.
Inc local demonstration against prices
centers principally in American Sugar. and
every argument in the slightest degree un-
favorable is made especially applicable to
this property.
Inc largest speculative interest I'm these
SHARES sold the stock with more or less ag-
etessiveness on the theory that complica-
tions with Germany might result from her
attitude toward our position in Manila Il
may be significant to add that outside CT

lutely no standing. London in particular
disregarding the suggestion
The Hawaiian annexation was more lop4-
cai In Its influence against the price of
sugar. 1t is now pretty generally conceded
that once the representative branch of the
government goes upon record as being IN
FAVOR OF this action the remainder of the
transaction Will be merely a matter of de-
tan. In consequence of the agitation in
cldent to this destruction of the American
companys monopoly Of the raw sugar mar
ket the price Of the stock was depressed
per cent from its opening level
Inc trading was active during a greater
part OF the day and one of the largest
sugar houses in the street sold freely.
reopie Gas was another element Of
Hedkhess curing the early trading owing TO
the general nervousness concerning north
western securities since the collapse of ths
wheat deal. - '''e
The traction shares were given relatively
good support as the result OF continued con,
nuence in the earning capacity of these
rcaos- Inc general market has been under
rather strong pressure during the week
