WILL NOT INCREASE PRICE
RISE IN WHEAT WILL NOT
MAKE BREAD MORE COSTLY.
Weight Of Loaf Might Be Decreased,
One Baker Said, But Decrease
Will Be Imperceptible.

Bread will not be any higher In price
because of the recent balIooning of the
price Of wheat in Chicago. say Washing
ton bakers. when asked this morning con-
cerning. the matter. They appear to be-
lieve the fiuBry to be almost entirely due
to manipulations Of James A. Patten. who
has pushed the market higher than It has
been in years and thereby added few
millions to his own pocket.
A member Of the firm Of the Havenner
Baking Company stated that in his belief
the skyward flight Of the wheat prices
would not affect the price of bread in
Washington.
If worst came to worst he said. half
ounce or an ounce might be taken of the
weight, but the price would remain the
same. This subtraction would not be a
perceptible one, he thought.
Few cities in the country have any
bread laws whatsoever. The old one ex-
listing in Washington was recently de-
clared null and void. but most bakers
carrying large supplies of flour on hand
are prepared against sudden short flurries
in wheat, and hence the public Is unaf
fected.
Other leading bakers of this city said
this morning that they held similar
opinions. s. A. Reeves of the Reeves
Company said that the public is welded
to the five-cent loaf weighing full six
teen ounces, and the bakers will have to
keep to this standard. AS in every busi-
ness, he continued, there are times when
the manufacturer has to make and sell
at very little profit. II not an actual loss.
but these periods are but temporary and
prices not affected.
Chicago and other western bakers. ac-
cording to press reports. are more fear
full in the matter than are the local
breadmakers. They are quoted as saying
that the present prices will not be af-
fected, but the future appears to them
doubtful. Some of these men are said
to place the rise to a scarcity of wheat.

tives, the islands in the group were agi-
tated for about ten days prior to the
time when the new island, with great
rumblings, pushed Its head out of the
sea. The craters Of the Bogostop group
began to belch with fire, ashes and sand
Capt. Mckay added that the natives. in
great fear, could not be made to approach
within many miles OF the new island
They declared, however, that Its peak was
visible and that 1t was throwing out q
volume of steam. The natives even said
that soon after the appearance Of the
island the rumblings ceased and the erup-
tions from the craters on the Bogostor
islands came to an end.

Quency.
Then either new or old craters of the
Bogostop group burst out in flames and
the reflection of fire was visible in the
sky at nighttime and could be seen from
high points near Unalaska. The mar
shal sent Indians off to see what had oc-
Cured. They returned and said that
they would not go near the place. as tnerr
was fire on Bogostop and a new island
was visible. The island is now covered
with steam, indicating that the rocks are
still hot"
There were reports today of volcanic
manifestations in Europe. According to
one, Mount Etna was in active eruption

clouds of smoke and cinders.

of the Wabash stocks Attention was
directed also to report of the proposed
construction Of railroad strip which
would connect the Rock Island with the

While these and other factors served
some purpose in keeping selling orders

Features Of tho Days Dealings in Al
The Leading Stocks.

New York, June PA recovery in
prices today was to e expected in view
Of the aselessness of the rumors which
circulated in the stock market yesterday
to account for the selling. AS the rumor
of r. II. Harrimans sudden and fatal ILL
ness was quickly disproved, the conclu-
sion followed that it was put in circula-
tion with the purpose of forcing selling
of stocks in the interest of the bear po-
sition. The appearance of groundless
rumor of this Importance is taken usually
as an indication of growing difficulty in
a speculative position. The bears, in con-
sequence, found their following consid-
erably reduced today and those of them
that were still short of stocks felt in
clined to cover.
There was renewed buying also from
the large commission houses from which
selling yesterday gave the impression of
important liquidation. Supporting orders
at influential points in the market made
themselves felt, but were withdrawn later
in the day. The buying of United States
Steel. the Hartman Pacifics and Reading

strong influence on sentiment toward the
