GOES BACK TO ATTORNEY.
Difference Of Opinion Regarding Sibley
HOSPITALS REQUEST,

The question of allowing free water to
the Sibley Hospital, as was recently re-
ouested of the Commissioners by the au.
thorities of that institution, has become the
moving cause for a difference of opinion
between the heads of two departments Oh
the District government. When the re-
quest was first received the propriety OF
allowing 1t was referred to Corpora ton
Counsel Thomas, and he stated that 1.-THE
hospital Is represented as attending to
emergency cases and nurse work among The
poor and in treating patients for less than
the cost Of treatment. and, if so. it is
within the benefits of the act, which may
be allowed it in the discretion of the Com
missioners.
s George w. Wallace. water registrar Of
the District, took decidedly different viuw
of the situation. declaring that he could
rot see how the request can be granted.
He declared that Sibley Hospital declined
to apply for an annual appropriate such
as every other hospital, save one, In The
District is now receiving, and that the an
nual income from the hospital including
a small amount of interest from the Sibley
endowment, left a surplus over all ex-
penses. He recommends that the request
for free water be denied but Engineer Com
missioner Bidde ordered that the matter
be again referred to the corporation counsel

Detective Jacob Berman, who has been
detailed at the Baltimore and Ohio depot
for several years. has been transferred to
police headquarters and assigned for duty

Detective Berman Is a linguist and ia
thought he will be able to fill the important

Evans will probably be assigned to regular

A Squirt AT THE OPENING
THE BANKS REPORTED A LOSS
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, July 11--There was little
betterment in stock market conditions to-
day in any respect in comparison with yes
terday's embarrassing business session. In
the early part of the day there was squirt
of animation In Northern Pacific. Great
Northern preferred and St Paul, and the
movements in those stocks impaired for
time some little life TO the remainder OF the
market. but subsequently, when the securi-
ties named developed reactionary tenden-
cies, trading came almost to a standstill In
the rest OF the list.
There appeared 10 be no definite eNplana-
tion of the strength and activity in st. Paul
and the so-called Hill stocks during the
first hour OF business, although the much
discussed ore lands negotiations were re-
vived In connection with the rise in Great
Northern preferred. The United States
Steel stocks. on the other hand. opened and
continued relatively heavy.
Apart from the further consideration
accorded to yesterdays government crop
report there was little that was interesting
in the days discussion. The very salts
factory showing made in the crop report
cut however, about as little figure in the
speculation in securities as was the case
yesterday and some attention was attract
ed to a rather sharp recovery in both wheat
and corn

Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. July 11.-Natura1ly~ specu-
lators who had been looking for the stock
market to rally further were greatly dis
appointed over the fact that there was no
general response to the extremely favor
able crop report made public yesterday
afternoon. Those who believed that the
market would work higher little later on
asserted that In their opinion the excellent
condition of crops would then be q potent
factor for higher prices A man who
watches crop conditions closely said today
that undoubtedly the great Importance OF
the excellent crops now promised was by
no means fully realized. He added that
those who were talking of lower prices for
stocks failed to comprehend that these
crops would mean an enormous railroad
business for the next twelve months, and
that the results OF this years output would
be felt In many ways that were now ap-
parently disregarded.
Another man. in commenting upon yes
teroay's crop report. said that he did not
believe this country would ever see another
general crop failure. He pointed out that
the diversity of crops had Increased so ma
terfaily, that the acreage was so much
greater and that so many new sections had
been opened up that it would be impossible
practically not to have fair average yield
for the country as whole.

Money Market Conditions.

Money market and foreign exchange con-
dItions showed little alteration, although
so far the former was concerned the
banks reported up to this morning loss
In their operations with the subtreasury
amounting to 81 298. eco This large unfav-
orable balance was caused partly by the
return of a portion of the special deposits
made by the treasury in the banks during
the spring stringency in the money mar
kct and also by the return of Sl,Joo,ooo
against gold imports from Australia.
The subtreasury was. however a heavy
debtor at today's clearing house settle
ments. on account of large government dis
bursements for the transportation of mails.
etc
There were further transfers of currency
to San Francisco. which were believed to
represent remittances against insurance
losses
The London stock market was generally
steady today on the satisfactory progress
of the settlement. although some uneasiness
seemed to exist there lest further insolyen-
cies might be announced before the end of
the week

BEES AND POULTRY.

Time to think about water-glass
eggs.
They say that bee-keepers should
organize.
Breed your queens to suit your de-
mand for honey-gatherers.
There are bee-keepers who keep
bees, and then there are real bee-keep-
ers.
Mites are very destructive and null
tiply with astonishing rapidity. Look
for them often.
Scrub bees, scrub Bookkeeping, and
scrub bee-keepers are usually found at
the same place.
Catch the infection of clearly prac-
tice in the poultry yard and the hens
will catch it too.
Every breed is popular enough for
every breeder to dispose of first-class
fowls at good prices.
1t Is the good queen and the good
management that work to the best ad-
vantage in an apiary.
Not the breed, not the feed, not the
house, not the yard, not anything
counts more than the man In poultry
raising as a business.

EFFECTIVE DUST BATH.
and Sulphur Enjoyed by
Hens.

AS to mites, do not believe that I
have any in my houses, says New
Jersey poultryman. use preventa-
tive remedies, spraying the houses and
painting underside of roosts and roost
rests with. crude carbolic solution, also
fumigating with sulphur and white
washing, using the sulphur once q
month and whitewashing about four
times year. The above have found
sufficient for my purpose. believe
the mites are very difficult to get rid
of once they get foothold in house
and a house infested with them will
need very thorough cleaning and
spraying, being very particular to get
the spray into all cracks and crevices
AS to chicken lice, keep the houses
supplied with dust baths, using clean
dust mixed with fine ashes and sui
phur. When had small number OF
fowls, 1t was an easy matter to in
spect each individual, and dust them
with insect powder, but this involves
entirely too much labor where large
number of fowls are kept; so now I
rely on dust baths mixed as above, I
am not aware that / have ever lost
any poultry from lice or mites and
believe II the above plan Is faithfully
followed the trouble will be reduced
to q minimum.-Farmer's Review.

GOOD SHELL MATERIAL.
Where Production Of Eggs Is Large
Much Lime Must Be Pro-
vided.

A great many of our people forget
that the modern hen produces several
times as many eggs az the ancient
hen that was. the progenitor of the
one we now have. That hen laid
30 or 40 eggs year and had no trou-
BILE to find the lime In the natural
food. But 1t is very different mat
ter when a domestic fowl must pro-
duce good shell material out Of her
food for two hundred eggs during the
year. The modern hen probably eats
no more lime in her food; therefore
the farmer that does not provide i'm
portant supplies Of lime will have
trouble with his flock. The eggs will
have thin shells, and there VIII be
many soft shelled, eggs which will be
temptation to the poultry to begin
egg eating. 1t is easy enough to fur
nish the material II one does not for
get. The professional poultry man
never forgets; but the farmer does,
because poultry with him is merely a
side issue.
