CONSOLIDATED STOCK EXCHANGE.

A fairly active business transacted the

duently the entire list weakened and continued on
the down grade to the close. While most of the
selling came from professional room traders there
some liquidation the part OF tired holders
of stocks. who evidently had become disappointed
over the failure of the market to advance following

BLEACHED FLOUR.

Washington, Nov. 2o-Admitting the ex-
istence OF nitrous acid IN bleached flour,
but denying that 1t renders the product
harmful to health. several experts for
the naillers of the country today appeared
before Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
and members of the pure food board in
a hearing to determine the status OF
bleached flour under the provisions Of
the pure food and drugs act Secretary
Wilson refused to admit as evidence a
letter from Professor Z. w. lockwood
of Iowa. stating that nitrates in bleached
four are removed by yeast. rendering the
flour harmless.
Professor W S. Haines of Rush Med
ical college. Chicago, contradicted some
of the theories held by DR.. Harvey W.
Wylie. the governments pure food ex-
pert Professor Haines held that there
should be no alarm because nitrates are
found in bleached flour. as IL would re-
quire an enormous amount of this sub
stance to kill a person.
Professor AlIsway of Nebraska told OF
his experiments with the saliva of indi-
viduals to show that nitrates are in hu-
man beings, and il nitrates are taken
into the system through the eating or
bread it is in less quantities than already
exist

MERCHANT MARINE MATTER
President-eIect Taft Said to Be in
Line on the Subject.

New York, Nov 20.-The sixteenth gen.
eral meeting of the Society of the Naval
Architects and Marine Engineers ended
today. In the evening the members sat
down to banquet at which j. A. Butler,
jr.. president of the Merchant Marine
League of the United States. made a Wig
orous plea for the upbuilding of the mer-
chant marine.
Mr.. Butler read letter which he had
written TO President-elect William H
Taft, bespeaking his cooperation in the
matter, and made known the fact that
Mr.. Taft had replied. giving every assur-
ance OF his sympathy with The movement
and of his desire TO do everything in
his power to help II TO success.
Mr.. Butler turned to statistics to show
that entrusting American products and
manufactured articles to foreigners for
delivery was a ruinous proceeding.
The lack of an American merchant
marine said Mr.. Butler, hurts the
shipbuilders, owners and seamen of the
coast. But 1t hurts even more the mer-
chants and manufacturers OF the central
west. of what avail are the wonderful
industrial energy and economy of our
people If when we have produced a case
of machinery or a lot of flour at a price
that enables it to be sold in Brazil or
Argentine, we cannot sell it there be-
cause European steamship commission
compels US to pay twice as high a freight
rate as on similar goods exported to
South America from Europe?"

of John Krause the San Franciscan who
committed suicide yesterday on board the
steamer Adriatic while that vessel was
going from Cherbourb to Queenstown
Mr.. Dickinson is a New Yorker, and IS
in business outside of Paris. He explained
today that he met Mr.. Krause casually
short time ago and was struck by the
evident signs of his mental disturbances.
Mr. Krause plainly was in bad health and
low spirits and he acted as If suffering
frora the mania of persecution, as he was
suspicious of everybody, but did not talk
of suicide. Mr.. Krause stopped at the
Grand hotel in Paris and his queer con-
duct attracted attention there.

Mr.. Kellogg discontinued this line of in

He added that the net earnings for 1907

that the profits did not determine the
risk. 1t was evident that the business
