RUMoR NOT CREDITED.
That Assistant Secretary Spaulding is
to Be Retired at Once.

There is a revival of stories that Gen. 0.
l.. Spaulding, assistant secretary of the
treasury, is about to be retired from his
position 1t is stated that has been
definitely informed by Secretary Shaw that
he is to be retired and that it IS probable
that he will not again exercise the duties
Of the office. General Spaulding is now
away on a short vacation and Secretary
Shaw is out of the city. From treasury
officials who ought to know something
about the plans of these gentlemen 1t is
said that the story is merely revival of
former ones. All of these stories are based
on the fact that General Spauldng was for
some time In i'll health and that his strength
is supposed to be not sufficient to continue
his duties. There is a belief that ultimate
Iy General Spaulding will retire from the
treasury altogether or that he will accept
a transfer to some other position where
the work is less arduOus but it Is said that
the termination of his services is not likely
to take place at once unless he himself is
inclined to leave public service. He is not
to be forced into going. and the story that
Secretary Shaw has informed him that he
will not be needed is discredited among
treasury official who ought to know what
they are talking about.

EFFECT ON WALL STREET
Prices OF Stocks Dropped Temporarily,
but Quickly Recovered

NEW YORK, June 24.-The news of the
serious illness of the King of England
caused only temporary furry in Wall
street This was partly due to the fact
that the news Of the success of the opera
ton upon the king was received almost i'm
mediately after the opening of the stock
exchange. The resulting rally In the Lon
don market checked the selling of stocks
here for London account. But the selling
at the opening for this account was con-
siderable, and was well taken, the resulting
dechnes reaching point in only few of
the leading international stocks The gen
eral run of stocks fell only small fractions.
Prices generally recovered when the ad-
vance Of stocks that were strong Yesterday
was renewed. The dull and irregular mar
ket that followed was caused by the weak
ness OF some of the industrial stocks which
are not subject to the influence of foreign
markets.
