FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
SHRiNkAGE IN PRICES. Mood of Depression Sweeps Stock Market-Deaiings Very Small.

New York, June 27-The stock mar ket underwent a mood of depression today and prices were subjected to a severe shrinkage on smallness of actual transactions out of all propor- tion to the amount of the declines The crop news was not bad, and it was necessary to turn to other factors in the effort to fathom the explana- tion of the weakness of the market. There was a suspicion amongst other prOffered explanations of a concerted attack by an organized bear party un- der powerful auspices. The appear ance early in the day of rumor, often used by the bears, that J. Pierpont Morgan had been stricken suddenly with death, which was followed short ly by MT. Morgan's appearance at his office to give himself to business ac- tivities, aroused this suspicion. The disproof of the rumor did not, how ever, revive the market.
 MT. Morgan's reappearance in Wall street was cited, in another way, as a hypothetical explanation of the mar ket,s weakness as due to disappointed spectators who had waited on his return from abroad with the idea that it would foment an active period of rising prices of stocks The grounds on which this supposition had been formed were the reports that he had enlisted large amounts of foreign capi- tai in the purchase of American se- curities, that he had secured an agree ment with foreign copper producers to co-operate with American producers in curtailment of output and that he had assured the listing of United States Steel on the Paris bourse- From these reports and from the diligence of his banking house in getting assents of shippers to the advances in rates asked for by the railroads, it had been in ferred by a party in the speculation that the Morgan party were looking to higher prices for stocks. The event of MT. Morgans arrival home from Europe was likely to be made the oc- casion of attempts to realize specula- tive profits by the element which had followed this policy.
 The call money market showed no disturbance from the approach of the July settlements. Private discount rates were easy in London and Ser lin. Foreign exchange rates in New York, however, turned upwards quite sharply.
 The severity of the days decline gave rise to the inevitable uneasiness, but specific rumors even of financial diff culties were not heard. Last prices were tine lowest of the day, Union Pa cific and Reading showing losses of over four points, Chesapeake and Ohio 1-2 and the active list generally from one to three points.
 Bonds were weak. Total sales, par value S1,S5O,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

GAMES TODAY. Willimantic at Norwich.
connEcIISur ASSOCIATION STANDING VI

starting in Fnird place at the begin { ming of last Week, the Norwich team ] ran into a losing streak in the five l last games, winning only one of the five so that they finished. the week ir the cellar position in the standing Failure to hit can be blamed for the loses as in three of the games the home team was unable to push run over the plate. New London took two games from Norwich, both by to C scores, Middletown took two. 4 to 2 and '6 to 0. but we finished up by trimming Middletown, Il to 4, on the home diamond.
 From now on the Norwich team is to be under a new captain, Paddy Duff having been signed by Manager Stone for that place. Paddy is man whose mays, both in playing and in baseball knowledge When Fred Doe had a Connecticut state league team in Nor wich eleven years ago. Duff one alternate with Slim MyIntyre on first base here, and when Duff is .n first Slim will play right field.
 Jack McRoberts. the big sorreI-top- ped pitcher, who has been on the local roster since the season started, has been put on the suspended list until he can get into shape. Manager Stone is satisfied that McRoberts has the condition Southpaw Mooney is to twirl against Willimantic at Sacnern park this afternoon and a new right hand pitcher is expected here .n time f3f the Friday game
 The standing of the league as print ed in The Bulletin on Monday morn ing was. Incorrect as far as Willinan- tic and New London were concerned. The correct standing is given above.
 F'rom the form displayed in the last garhe it is predicted that Norwich will come back strong in the games this week and that some other team will be occupying last place by the end of the next seven days.
 There was a decline in team batting figures from .235 to .229, and team fielding figures also dropped from .915 to .90S- Two men did some conspicu- ous batting in the last five games Noonan leading the team by getting 8 hits, and Mcintyre second with 6. Lefty Smith collected 3 hits in three games, keeping his lead of the team in batting with a mark of .33s, which is a gain over last week. Noonan's fig ures of .333 give him second place, and Paddy Duff comes in third with 300. The following shows the stickwork:
