ing on the varsity last year, which
won out by inches only from Columbia
in one of the greatest finishes ever
seen on the river.
Syracuse has the heaviest varsity
crew on the Hudson and Wisconsin the
lightest, according to the official aver
ages. These range from 166 IA pounds
to 172 as.
Around the Syracuse quarters they
try to impart the impression that this
is an off year in rowing for the victors
in the last regatta, and they do not
expect much. Champlin, who rowed
No. in the boat last year, is the
heaviest man in the stroke position of
any of the varsity Fights, tipping the
scales at 176 pounds. He drives his
men eel and without friction and is
reputed to have that coo1ness which is
such a necessary adjunct of a good
stroke man. The Syracusans, as usual,
look like scullers and give the impress
sion of bein~ very fast for the early
stages. There is very little chance
that they will steal a march as they
did in 1904, when they started with
such rush that all the other crews
figured they would not last. Since
then they have been well watched in

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
A STATE OF sTAeNATloN
The Like of Which the Market Has
Not Seen for Months.

New York, June 2S.-The period
around July LIST is one, traditionally,
of quiet stock@trading. This normal
tendency was emphasized today by sew
eral additional circumstances which
combined to throw the market into a
state of stagnation not approached for
many months past. The torrid heat of
last week drove many usually active
traders away from Wall street, and
with the prospect of a short week to
follow with the closing of the stock ex-
change on next Saturday. as we'll as
the following Monday already decided
on, there was little incentive to take up
activities. After the first hour the
market was practically idle. Some at
tention was paid to reports of crop
conditions, but the market received no
stimulus from these reports, which are
not expected to be definite in their in
dications Of the outcome of the princi-
pal crops for several weeks from this
time. AdviceS were favorable regard
ing the winter wheat harvest, but some
complaints were heard about the cot
ton prospects. The entering of the
tariff bill upon the final stages of its
discussion gives promise of a much de-
sired contamination, though the specu-
lation and the march Of business have
gone forward so effectively without
waiting for the termination of the tar
iff struggle that some question arises
as to the course of the speculation with
the actual enactment of the law Conf
dence is unimpaired that the July mon
ey settlements will offer no factor of
disturbance, and money markets re-
manned in the soft and yielding state
that has characterized them for some
time past. Engagement of $4,000 900
