At this season of the year, mer. chants usually let their stock run down and try to close out as much as possible, to be in readiness for the Fall wants. A wise th,ng 10 do and we probably should do likewise, but we do a little differ ent from that, and you will find our stock in July to compare fav- orably in the way of selection and sizes, with what it was in March or April.
 We shall be receiving summer stock all through this month. No great amount but enough to fill many spots where sizes are short.
 Some are from manufacturers who have been slow in getting them out, others again: just what we want and hope to sell through August and September and may be-who knows-but what a pro- longed spell of warm weather, which is just as likely to follow, as it was to have such late cool spell.

 The Yacona came into port yester- day after q weeks cruise in Long Is- land Sound and captain MacDonough gave several of the Fes, snore leaves Six of the Yacona's crew came down to the landing at Eighty-sixth Street early today after an all-mght frofic and hailed the racona for launch. There was no answer from the yacht, and in their anxiety to get aboard the sailors induced Gus Appleton, al dockman, to take them out to the yacht. The dock- man wanted to divide the party and make two trips. but against his will all six piled into the yawl and started for the steam yacht Several times during the trip Appleman warned his Dotsterous passengers to remain quiet, as their movements threatened to over- turn the craft.
 Within a dozen boat lengths of the yacht one of the sailors gave the yawi violent iurch and sine capsized. throw ing all seven uen into the water.
 Appleman succeeded in not only clinging to the keel of the overturned boat. but also assisted three of the sailors All four were finally picked up by tug which had been attracted by the shouts Of the men, The crew on board the Yacona. hearing the cries of distress, threw a powerful search light over the waters anc lowered a boat to search for the three missing men. No traces of them could be dis covered The police searched the river without result.

MERELY PRACTICE.
Metcalf Depreeates War Like Aspect - Given Movement.

Given Movement.
 Oakland, Calf, July 9.-Secretary of like aspect that has been given the or- der for the cruise of the great battle ship squadron from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast. The secretary said last night that the proposed movement was that of practice cruise and that the fleet would not be kept in the Pacific permanently.
 He declared that the length of time that the fleet would remain on the Western side of the continent had not yet been decided.
 Fetary voiced his opinion that the war like interpretation that had been made in connection with the fleets move ments was not justified by the facts In fact the widely published reports suggesting hostile preparations seem to be source of irritation for the head of the navy. He said:
 ''The fleet which will be moved from the Atlantic to the Pacific this winter k coming to this side merely on prac- tice cruise. The fleet will consist of sixteen or more vessels, not more than twenty and it's stay on this side will not be permanent. Of course the fleet will not come, here,, turn around and so right back again. How long it will remain in the Pacific will be determlR- ed at the proper timaa4S
 "rhere is no sound reason CT excuse for all this talk by all the public and through the press of, an attempt to over-awe the Japanese by a war-liks naval display. I do not believe that the newspapers are justified or right in at once construing and coloring the cruise of the warships to the Pacific.
 Every year the Atlantic fleet has been sent on cruise. Last year 1t went to Guantanamo. This year 1t Is the Pacific. The long cruise will give the men and the vessels a thorough test and improve the efficiency of both

 cross-examined by Senator Borah, Ar. Gill said that Simpkins was c party to this interview. He knew both Or- chard and Simpkins well. This ended the taking of testimony for the day. and Attorney Darrow went to work once more on the San Francisco de- position
 One of the most important deposit hohs read during the afternoon was that of Peter w. Doyle, foreman of carpenters who had charge of the re- pairs following the explosion He de- ciarsd that not the slightest trace of lead was found anywhere in the wood- work or In the debris. Asked his opin- ion as to where the force came from which caused the damage. he declared it seemed to come from the direction of the Cummings apartment. where the gas pipes ran up the east wall. Doyle gave in detail the extent of the dam- age.
 Mrs, Gnl Called.
 The reading of dispositions was again interrupted to permit the calling of Mrs. Allen F. Gill, wife of preceding witness. She said she knew Orchard when he was in the wood business at Burke. Orchard offered to sell his in- terest in the Hercules mine to her, she testihed. in February. 1899. She con- suited her husband about the matter. and he decided to make the purchase. Orchard did not return, however. and she did not see him any more until the following March.
 The deposition of c. A. Creamer. the contractor who repaired the Linworth flats after the explosion, was red next. The deponent gave an extended de- scription of the building and the dam age caused by the explosion. His de- scriptions indicated that the explo- sion was caused by gas, but. on cross- examination, he said he could not tell whether gas on dynamite damaged the building. The affidavit of B. Lewis,a plumber, told of the discovery of gas leaks at the Linforth flats and the ef- forts to locate them before the explo- sion.
 The last deposition was that of W. A. Abernathy, a contractor, who testified that he met Orchard at San Francisco in November, 1904. Orchard had bcen brought to the witness as man with a silver lead property in Idaho. so the witness said.
 Orchard told Abernathy that if 1t had not been for Steunenberg, whom he called vile name, he would have been rich, and he intended to fix Steunen- berg. Orchard offered to look up the silver-lead property In Idaho for $100.
 Court adjourned at 4 o'clock until s:S0 tomorrow morning.

 Washington, July 9--Although pret- tv well satisfied that the Japanese Ad- miral Sakamoto was no. accurately re- ported in his alleged criticism or the personnel of the American navy. the officials here htve concluded that even if the case were otherwise the incl dent would call for no official repre- ssntations on their part. As one of the officials put it. the matter would be one for the Japanese naval authori- ties to deal with snd they undoubted- ly would do so wi hout any prompting from the United States.
 Our government always has taken the initiative in admonishing and even reprimanding American military or naval officers who are guilty findis- erect public comments upon foreign It has done so upon the theory that the offense of the officer in such case is against his own govern ment and 1t Is not doubted that the Japanese view will be the same.
