COPPER STOCKS IN

Following is the daily market comment
of Paine, Weber & Co, Boston, together
with the range of prices OF copper stocks
and other Boston Istings in which the
west is interested, as well as similar
report on New York curb transactions,
feature that has just been added by
James A. Pollock & Co. to it's private
wire service, and from which it is secured
for use in this department of The Herald.
Boston, July 1.-THE whole market is
hanging on the money situation at pres
emit and we do not see any relief in sight.
Stocks are intFinsically cheap, but no one
is disposed to buy them and they will
sag slowly. The situation here today was
bad, practically no orders in the market
to buy cOppeTs and selling orders had to
be executed sometimes a point under the
last sale. Remember, money is the key
to the situation and any attempt to bull
the market must have easier money as
a foundation.

John H. Seward, trading as ]. H. Sew
ard & Co., fruit importers, of Baltimore,
who recently pleaded guilty of defraud-
ing the Government in obtaining rebates
of duty paid on importations of fruit, has
been sued by the United States in the
United States Circuit Court for $751;
goo IS, the amount out of which, it is
alleged, he defrauded the Government.
Seward was charged with increasing
the weight of the worthless fruit or slush
upon which a refund of duty of cent
per pound was allowed, by mixing it with
water and sawdust. He was also charged
with weighing the same slush two or
more times. When he pleaded guilty
sentence was suspended until July g to
give him time to settle his affairs. The
same day was set for sentencing three
others who pleaded guilty with him.
Four negroes also indicted in the case
pleaded guilty and were sentenced to jail,
one for two months and three for one
month.
The weight of the decayed slush on
which Seward was entitled to rebate was
ascertained by subtracting the weight of
the fruit he sold from the weight of his
imports.

SPEED OF FISHES.
Tarpon, Shark and MackereI Are the
Swiftest of Swimmers.

IoFPon, Snafk ana Mackerei are tne
Swiftest of Swimmers.
When scientists desire to find out
how fast certain bird flies, it is nee
essary only to set up poles and note
by stop watches the time the bird re-
quires to cross the interval. The speed
of fishes is more difficult to ascertain.
Nevertheless, as the Saturday Even
ing Post explains, estimates have been
made showing that the mackerel, con-
sidering its handicap in size, comes
close to being the champion racer.
Unquestionably the mackerel travels
sometimes as fast as an express train
at high speed-say, at the rate of sixty
or possibly seventy miles an hour.
Other things being equal, the larger
the fish the faster it swims, just as the
huge steamboat is able to travel at
speed much greater than the little har
Dor tug.
Undoubtedly the energy employed
by a fish Of great size, such as thirty
foot shark, when travelling at its best
gait is something tremendous. An Or
binary tug, which represents maxi
mum of energy in a minimum of bulk,
utilities about 200 horsepower. OF
course 1t is only guess, but it would
not seem to be over the mark to sup
pose that seventy foot whale makes
use Of 500 horsepower when it propels
its huge bulk through the water at a
rate Of thirty miles an hour.
A whale, which is mammal and not
fish, might be compared to freight
train If the shark is cannon ball ex-
press, but it can beat the fastest ocean
greyhound" in speed contest.
The tarpon is probably faster than
the shark. 1t is believed that tarpon
in hurry can travel at the rate of
eighty miles an hour.

1t is doubted if he is as shrewd a poll
tician as President Roosevelt, and he is
criticized for having made some recent
breaks or false steps. His eulogy of Sen
ator Spooner without eulogistic reference
to Senator La Toilette from the same
state is looked upon as mistake. Sec.
rotary Taft is a big man in every way, and
must be accorded the rightto say what
he thinks and feels, but Senator La
Toilette is also very big and popular
man in his state, and with a growing
popularity throughout the United States,
and people in his state and the United
States are DESTROYS that man of his
ability and strenuous zeal for the interest
of the country at large should not be
slurred. A feeling has been growing in
Winconsin that the administration is not
quite friendly to Senator La Toilette.
There may be no ground for such feeling.
La Toilette is friendly to all that is best
and most approved by the country in
President Roosevelt's administration.
There is no sincerer advocate or exemplar
of the square deal than Senator La
Toilette of Winconsin.

Ex-Governor Frank Brown insists that
there is no change in his position with
reference to the Governorship. So the
situation stands. The Ex-Governor, says
the Baltimore News. is interested chiefly
in preventing the nomination of man
who would use the patronage of the
Governors Office to elect some other
man United States Senator. If he
thinks he can beat the crowd opposed
to him by becoming a candidate, he
will become one. If he thinks he can
beat it by taking up another man, he will
doubtless throw his influence in that
direction.

and many other valuable stakes, aggregating
more than 100000. The secretaries Of the
Brooklyn and Coney Island Jockey clubs and the
Brighton Beach Racing Association were busy
yesterday receiving and listing the early NOM
nations. Judging from those already received,
the entries will break all records for numbers.
The dearth of good horses in the three-year-old
and upward division In 1906 will lead many
owners and trainers to make entries of horses
which under ordinary circumstances would be
reserved for selling stakes
The full list of entries for the big spring handi-
caps will not be known for week or ten days.
The rules provide that postmarks showing the
entry has been mailed prior to midnight of Janu-
airy are sufficient TO make the nomination valid.
A partial list may be announced on Friday
or Saturday, however.
New Years Day is the official birthday Of all
thoroughbreds. and the yearlngs of yesterday
are two-year-olds to-day. Some trainers have
been waiting patiently to send their youngsters

TO KEEP UP FIGHT.
International Poicyhoders" Commit
tee Will Be Continued.

II was announced vest erday at the Office of
Samuel Unternyer that the International Pol
icyholders' Committee, of which Mr.. Untermyer
has been chief counsel would be made a per-
manent organization When the committee was
organized 1t issued an address stating that It
might continue in the field if II received the sup
port of the policyholders. Inasmuch as two hun
dred and fifty thousand policyholders of the MI
tual Life and New York Life cas-. their ballots
in support OF the committees tickets. the COM
mittee thinks It has received call TO continue.
The plan of the committee will be to organize
the policyholders OF the Mutual Life and New
York Life in cities and towns all over the coun-
try. forming subcommittee OF leading citizens
and thus preparing tho way for better showing
at the next elections Three things 1t was an
nounccd yesterday are to be sought in the or
ganization. They are the following:
First-The effective prosecution of all claims
against existing officers and directors for their
nets under past administrations TO push exist
ing suits, to to II that they prosecuted
IN good faith to Judgment. and more particularly
10 begin such action as may be deemed neces-
sary against the directors who IL is asserted,
have as yet been shielded from prosecution.
Second-To secure rigid investigation OF the
affairs OF the COMPARES which 1t was not pos
sibe for the Armstrong Committee TO undertake.
Third-To secure remedial legislation correct
ing defects IN the election machinery Of the
Armstrong law that may have developed from
the recent elections.
Among the bills which the committee will
seek to have passed by the Legislature are two
in particular designed TO prevent the admin
istrations OF the large companies from psrpet-
uating themselves IN power. One viii be bill
to provide that all ballots cast In the election
shall be official ballots TO be furnished by the
state superintendent OF insurance. This also
would do away with the Of proxies IN the
elections. Another will be a bill to make II a
nLsdemeanor for any officer. agent or ernpioye
of an insurance company to solicit votes for
any ticket in the elections.
