The New York stock Market.

New York, June 30.-With the en-
tire list under pressure from the open
ing Of the stock market today there
was another big falling off in values,
new low standards for the entire year
being reached in many stocks. When
the market opened there was a flood Of
selling orders which at once carried
prices down below last nights quota
tons.
The dead line mark in steel common
70-which has lasted all year and below
which it had been reported the control
Of that stock had decreed it must not
fall, was reached before noon when,
on perfect avalanche Of selling orders
there was drop to 90 rs.
This was exactly % points below the
aock s high record of last fall. Reading,
Baltimore and Ohio, Atcishon, Union
Pacific, Amalgamated, Southern Pa
cifc and others of the investment
leaders" dropped to new low marks
and the exchange was in great con
fusion.
There seemed to be no reason for the
selling other than the general belief
that from now on the railroads would
have nothing to say in the making OF
rates and that as a result earnings must
be curtailed.

the principal address at the annual
meeting of the Harvard Phi Beta Kappa

Aspects OF our Democracy, and he
discussed problems Of government at
length, deprecating the absence Of
governmental integrity in ordinary
life" He deplored an increasing
tendency" to find fault with public
officials and insisted that the real prob
lem is to concentrate power in public
life ms tead OF dividing it.

FIGHTERS CAMPS.

to Flood County with Moving Pictures
of the Fight.

Jeffries' Training Camp Moana
Springs, Reno, New, June 3O.-The
info" workers are getting busy on
the big fight. As a result the odds
have frightened up, regaining the hall
point they lost Tuesday night, when
they dropped from 10 to Z. to 10 to o,
and then again to 10 TO IL. Last
night the Johnson money loosened up
a little. fair sized commission com
ing in from San Francisco, and the
price bounded up to 10 to Z. There
were few takers at this figure, because
there is a feeling, based on something
really inscrutable, that there should
be drop to at least 2 to l, or even as
low as 10 to 4. 1t has been no secret
that the Johnson camp is holding out
for the latter odds.
Arrangements for policing the arena
and giving medical attention to any
OF the spectators who may be over
come by the heat or be injured are
complete. With the state police, with
whom it is awfully unsafe to trifie, and
many deputy sheriffs and Pinkertons
on the Job, it is not likely that any
one will have the temerity TO create a
disturbance.
Johnson has been assured that he
will be free from injury at the hands
of spectators, but he will have a mum
Der Of his own men stationed around
his corner. They will be with him
when he enters and leaves the ring.
Johnson's Training Camp, Rick S
Resort, Reno, New, June 3O.-No
time will be lost by moving picture men
in getting the pictures OF the Jeffrles-
Johnson battle before the public. Ii
the arrangement does not miscarry,
the machine and operators will be
hustled from the ring-side in automo-
biIes to special train which vii! have
the right OF way east and carry 1ee
shifts OF photographers to develop
negatives of original films and PRINT
new ones as fast as human lngenlty
and science make it possible.
Films will be dropped off as the

with enough retained to supply the

Tan and Roosevelt.

Beverly, Mass, June 30.-The sum-
mer capital was invaded today. The
attacking force was an army OF news
paper men who descended upon the
north shore early today armed with
fountain pens and cameras ready for
that much talked-of meeting between
President Taft and Theodore Roose-
welt which was expected to take place
this afternoon. The road in front OF
the Taft cottage at Burgess Point was
the camp. No one was permitted on
the grounds of the presidents cottage,
but outside crowd grew with
every train.
Meanwhile Roosevelt is still the guest
Of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, at
Nahant, where he spent the night. The
ex-presdent said last night that he
would probably motor over to the sum-
mer white house this afternoon.
There was much speculation regard
ing the meeting. This was the first
time that President Taft and his pre-
decessor in office were to see each other
since the memorable farewell in the
White House OH March 4, 1909, while
a blizzard was raging Roosevelt then
turned his back on American affairs,
with a promise that he would keep out
Of the political lime-light for long
time, promise that he kept.
That Roosevelt does not endorse some
OF the acts Of the Taft administration is
we'll known and some of the politicians
here profess to believe that an open
break is likely to follow tOday's meet
ing. Others point out that this is I'M
likely and that Col. Roosevelt can be
depended on to let nothing leak out to
indicate what he said to Taft or what
Taft said TO him until after he has re-
turned to New York.
Nahant, Mass, June 30.-Defnite
information that President Taft and
former President Roosevelt would
meet this afternoon came this morning
from Senator Lodge who said that
about . O'Clock he and Roosevelt would
leave here for Beverly.

CHARLTON,S CASE.
Italy VIII Demand Prisoners Extradi-
tion-IfDemand is Ignored Charlton
VIII be Convicted by Proxy.

Rome. June 30.-Unless Porter
Charlton, held in u Jersey City jail
on the charge of numbering his wife
at Moltrasio, Italy, is surrendered to
the Italian government for trial, he
will be adjudged guilty of murder by
proxy. In that event he may never
leave the United States without danger
of arrest in some country which will
carry out its extradition treaty with
Italy. The president OF the Como
tribunal announced today that il the
United States refused to yield up Charl-
ton, or to try him in that country on
the murder charge, as Italy does with
prisoners wanted in the United States,
a court trial will be held, without the
presence Of Charlton.
There is sufficient evidence to con-
vict him, by proxy, on the charge of
murder. 1t is not believed in Italy
that the United States authorities will
permit Charlton to be returned here.
Italy's refusal to send back to the
United States prisoners wanted for
capital crimes in America, it is under
stood, will cause the United States TO
refuse to act.
Italy, however, will make formal
demand for the return OF the prisoner
and will insist, within the range of
diplomatic courtesy, that he be re-
turned

been its uniform policy with such en-
terprises in the south, aud is co-operat

KING GEORGES REAL NAME.

How many people know what King
Georges real surname is?'
If His Majesty were TO be deprived OF
all his titles and reduced to the rank Of

were the founders Of the Prince Consort's
ancient house Of Saxe-Coburg. The
rrince Consort's name was W. tin, just
as Queen Wet, ria was by biltla Guelph
aud she became a Victim Oh her
marriage. Thus the present Kings
real name is George Victim.
However the name and title which
will actually be given 10 His Majesty on
the forthcoming new coinage will be
'Georgius v, Del Gratia, Britanniarum
Rex, Fidei Defensor, Indae Imperator
1t is too long for the coinage, but this
is how the Kings full style and title
goes as corrected to date: George the
Fifth, by the Grace OF God Of the United
Kingdom OF Great Britain and Ireland
and the British Dominions Beyond the
Seas King, Defender of the Faith, EN-
peror Of India"

Chester, Pa, June S0.-A bald
eagle OF enormous size attempted 10

William L. Zebley, of Beteel, this
county yesterday.
Paul was playing in the shade OF a
large tree in the rear of his home
when Mrs. Zebley, who was in the

loudly, followed by the tapping Of
wings. Looking out Of the door she
was Mortified to see the eagle Juggling
at the little fellows dress. The boy,
however, was too heavy for the bird,
which only succeeded in lifting him
about two feet from the earth.

tempted to strike the bird, which was
too willy for her, however The eagle
lodged the blows aimed at its head,

Trouble Feared.

Paris. June 30.-The execution Of
Liabeuf, the Apache, who killed one
policeman and wounded several others,
because he had been condemned to prl-
son as a cadet, unjustly, he claimed, is
sure to be followed by grave trouble in
Paris tomorrow. 1t was announced today
that Z, 900 reyolutionlsts will surround
the prison Santa tomorrow morning to
prevent the execution.
The revolutionists declare they will
storm the prison even as the Bastile
was taken and that they will guilotine
the executioner himself if he allows the
knife to fall on Liabeuf's head,
Ex-president Loubet and Anatole
France, the noted author, today called
on President Falieres for a pardon for
the assassin whose guilt is unquestiOn-
ed. Premier BRAND, himself, is OPP
posed to the execution and has inter
ceded with the president for a pardon.

consequences will follow the death Of
the prisoner. 1t is significant that
troops are being gathered into Paris
from the surrounding ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

Gus Apache, has been saved from the
guillotine, temporarily, at least. De

though President Falleries had refused
to grant respite, there wonld be no ex-
ecution for the public executioner, An
atole Deibler, is not here.

The Railroad Rate Increases.

Washington, June 30.-As indicating
the probable attitude OF the Inter5tate
Commission in passing upon proposed
rate increases and its desire to be fair
and Just in its considerations two de-
cisions made by the commission today
are Of interest.
In one case OF the Banner Milling Co.
against the New York Central railroad
involving the rates on flour and grain
from Buffalo to New York the com
mission has reversed itself. In the
spring of 1907 the rates on flour and
wheat products from Buffalo to New
York we're increased from 10tO IL cents
per 100 pounds and to New England
points from II to Is cents. The COM
mission regarded the increase as UNI
reasonable. But after representations
from the New York Central that it,
revenues had been ,upduly cifrtailed by
this order the commission today
authorized the advanced rates to remain
in effect.
Between five and six hundred rail
roads operating in the eastern trunk
line territory from the Atlantic coast to
Chicago north OF the Potomac river on
Nav 10 filed tariffs involving about
&. 900 items. They were to become oper-
alive July l. A general complaint was
made against them. Investigation, how
ever. shows that there are no more
than 50 changes in the whole list, % OF
which are reductions voluntarily made
and 80 are increases. The commission
announced today that it would not sus-
pend these tariffs.

THE death OF Senator Daniel places
upon Governor Mann the duty and
responsibility of appointing a successor
to the deceased who will serve during

are many good and capable men in

with credit to themselves and their

carefully weigh the credentials of each
