FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
VERY DULL DAY ON CHANCE.
Smallest Business for Nearly Two Years-No Convincing Explanations.

New York, June 17.-Dealings in stocks today in the usually active first hour fell below a hundred thousand shares. the second hours business con- tracted to one-fourth of that amount, and that meagre figure shrank by one third again during the noon hour. Transa ctiOns in, less than nine thousand
 shares in period of an hour comes
 as near id1eness as often occurs on the
 floor of the New York stock exchange.
 The aggregate for the day was less
 than 100000 shares, the smallest days
 business for the year, and, in fact, for
 nearly two years, a midsummer day in 1908 blocking the range of the com
 parison with total of 73000. Brokers on the floor of the exchange were driv- en to horseplay as a resort from the duliness of conditions.
 None of the explanations offered were very convincing. The gloomy, oppres- sive weather was held partly responsi- ble. The observance of Bunker Hill day in Boston deprived the market of what has been a principal source Of business lately, centering in the copper group. The Interruption of Boston business relieved the coppers from some pressure and opened the way to their moderate recovery. The ap- preaching enactment of the railroad law was cited as another oppressive factor. President Ripley of the Atchi son, Topeka. and Santa Fe was author ity for the statement that his company was Wd1CInS 10 see nOW Inc ASW ldW works before going on with improve ments in view of it's drastic provisions The operations of railroad presidents under the new law and their opinions regarding it interest the stock market element as much as the law itself. The home coming of ex-Prtesident -Roose- welt was another subject discussed as helping to hold up stock market act1v- ity.
 The strength shown by the coppers was influenced directly by the reports of encouragement abroad over the course of that trade, and also by the requirements of short interest amongst foreigners in copper mining shares. The price of the metal re- bounded sharply in London.
 Money conditions excited only ian- guid interest in view of the -stagnant condition of the money market. Pre- estimates of the weeks cur rency movement promised another substantial increase in New York bank ing cash, sub treasury operations for the week contributing to the showing.
 Business in bonds was rather better than in stocks, but there was no mark ed revival, and the price movement was ragged and irregular. Total sales, par value, $943,000. United States bonds were unchanged on calls -l...s.

REMAINDER LEAVES NORWICH TEAM
To Play Independent Ball in Providence-Other Sport
 News of the Day.

Accepting an offer to play independ- ent baseball around Providence, Cap tain Ernest Rhyiander of the Norwich team departed for Providence Friday afternoon, running the risk of the blacklist, which can be used against a player who skips out of organized baseball without securing his release.
 It was the lure of money that tempt ed Rhy to make the jumc as he re- -ceived an offer from Pro, -dence that was too much to Jet go, he thought Last week they were bidding for him also but he held on here.
 As an all around player the Norwich captain was the most valuabye man on the team and his loss will make a big hole. He was a nice fielder a reliable hitter, the leading run getter of the league. and worth much to the nine

 A despatch from the Thread City says that Willimantic fans are of the opinion that Norwich will have to be content to take h trimming today when the Rosebuds and Colts clash on the Windham field. Quite number of sports were willing to take a, chance on Willimantic against Norwich on Friday, and several wagers were post ed, but unfortunately the game was called off from the Norwich end be- cause of showers. There may be a shower today, but it will be a different kind and if there are any balloon as- tensions it will be on the Norwich end It is predicted that one of the best. if not the largest, crowd of the season will be on hand to witness the game and it certainly would be nice if the Colts could win-just to see how it would seem

A DAILY OBJECT LESSON
Persons With tuberculosis A Menace To
Health OF Others

Yes, Annapolis is selling Red Cross
stamps to stamp out tuberculosis,
and TO help aid those afflicted with the
white plague" while here, in our
very midst are daily object lessons of
those going about amongst US, suffer
ing with the disease, and a menace
to the health of others.
In one of the public places in town
is man so afflicted. He coughs al
most constantly. drinks out of a cup
others drink from, and is in q ter
rible state of health. Perhaps his
employers do not recognize the SER
iousness of his condition, and per-
haps his employment from which he
is obliged to lay off frequently
for several days at the time to re-
cuperate, is his only source of liveli-
hood
But there is provision made for
his case, for which the sale of these
Red Cross seals are helpers. There
is State Sanitorium to which this
sufferer could be sent and at little or
no cost. There he would prolong his
life, and be free from communicating
others.
The other day the sufferer was
seen to take drink of water from a
cup and Immediately a little child
drank fir m the same cup. This man
ner of spreading tuberculosis is what
the Red Cross is fighting, and yet
these things are daily occurrences in
this town.

Ia "A Fool There Was" AT Academy OF
Music Baltimore Next Week

Robert Hilliard, one of the most
distinguished and successful of our
representative American stars, comes
to the Academy of Music, Baltimore,
Christmas week-opening with a
holiday matinee next Monday, as well
as giving the usual Wednesday and
Saturday matinees lin "A Fool There
Was" which created such tremen-
dous impression in Baltimore last
season.
The basic theme of this vivid,
vital play, aptly described as like
no other" was found in Kipling's
fascinating poem, inspired by Sir
Philip Burne-Jones world-famous
painting of the vampire. The first
nights audience at the Liberty
Theatre, New York, felt that it had
picked up live wire. Next day the
play was the big theatrical topic, and
for months the theatre was packed
with audiences worked up to high
pitch of nervous tension. Since then
it has had ten revivals in the thea
tres of New York and Brooklyn,
three revivals in Philadelphia and
two in Chicago. Incidentally,it has
established numerous box Office
records.
The story depicts the downfall of a
big man-big socially, financially
and in the business world. A lurid
creature, for whom one of her vic
Tins has just killed himself on board
ship, ensnares him at the moment of
sailing. She is bewilderingly and
subtly fascinating in snakish way.
She crumples up the moral scruple
of this strong man, as if it were It's
sue. Down to the depths she drags
him, racked by agonies of remorse
and establishment. Then comes the
great dramatic moment, when wife
and child loyalty battle for his re-
clamation.
All really great plays sound the
tragic note. But there is much
sweet sentiment in sthis one; many
flashes of CHEEKY humor, many cpl
grams that snap and sparkle. 1t is
play of laughter and tears, Of SYM
bolism and sharp and vivid contrasts.
1t reveals Hilliard at his gayest and
most debonair, dashing, gallant
figure, and again as an actor of tragic
force, who can depict the suffering of
a tortured soul. 1t has its moral.
1t is a play that is seen and talked
about by everybody wearied of the
conventional and commonplace in the
theatre. The ocean liner scene is a
marvel of realism.
