CROP REPORTS
AFFECT STOCKS

NEW YORK, June 24.-The
stock market fell into depression
again today under the combined
influence of renewed reports of
crop damage and of the publica-
tion Of Attorney General Wick
ersham's speech in Chicago.
The close correspondence in the
speculative movements in grain
and stocks was seen in the course
Of the early fluctuations in the
market Stocks started higher
and wheat started lower. When
wheat commenced to advance
stocks began to decline. At the
same time reports of extensive
damage not only to spring wheat,
but corn, began to come into Wall
street in a flood
The manner in which the sub
ject Of government control Of cap
italization was treated by At
torney General wickersham in his
Chicago address seemed to ap-
peal with new force to operators
in stocks. Apparently the deter
mination voiced by President Taft
in yesterdays statement indi-
Gated in the attorney generals
argument to make aggressive ef-
forts toward securing the new
legislation in the coming session
of congress offered a new phase
of the subject. Wickersham's
advocacy OF the use of the ma
tional power ito correct every evil
of a public character which ex-
perience demonstrates to be sus-
ceptible of correction only by na-
tional legislation" was seized on
to indicate broadening scope for
government pursuit of corpora
tions
There was a supposition that
the pressure on stocks, believed
to come largely from professional
sources, had in it a provocative
purpose TO bring out support from
the financial party credited with a
desire to see stocks advance. The
arrival at his office of ]. P. Nor
gan for the first time since his
annual home coming was coinci-
dent with the most active selling
movement of the day.
Preliminary estimates of the
weeks currency movement indi-
Gated a further large influx of
cash to New York from outside
sources, the margin over the OBJ
sorption from the market by the
subtreasury running TO several
million dollars. Sterling exchange
bills declined at one time seven
points below the low point of yes
terday. The imminence of the
half yearly settlements steadied
the London market to some ex-
tent.
Bonds were irregular. Total
sales, par value, s1,s5S,00
United States bonds were un-
changed on call.

Aside from a slight decline in the price OF
extra butter. there nothing in the
market for eggs and dairy produce yesterday.
Receivers still storing eggs. the supply
OF the upper grades being in excess OF current
trade needs. despite the fact that the proper
tton OF extras In the arrivals Is decreasing.
Cheese was steady for fats and weak for Young
Americas. but quotations unchanged. EN-
ira butter declined lie TO quotation OF 2S1ac a
pound. The market was generally firm, with
large receivers still storing.
Sales on the exchange were as follows:

2S1ac pound

lshed on the floor OF the dairy exchange. Prices

SALT IN THE SUGAR
Said to Explode Theory of Plot
to Sicken Middies.

Washington. Nov 23-Ordinary table
salt in the sugar which they used was re-
sponsible for the Illness OF the midshiprnen
at the Naval Academy at Annapolis who
were supposed to have been the victims or
epitefuI plot conceived and executed in
The culinary department OF the school
Such was the conclusion reached follow
ing chemical analysis Of a sample or
the sugar made here to-day in the laDora-
tory OF the Surgeon General of the navy
officials OF the Navy Department are in
clined to the belief that the salt found Its
way into the sugar purely through acct
dent and that there was no plot at all
The naval surgeons sag that a mixture
OF sugar and salt may make one quite as
sick as more dangerous combination
There are now twenty-five cases OF ty-
phoid fever at the academy. and four of
the patients are in serious condition ac-
cordfng TO reports received to-day by Sur
ceon General Stokes. The typhoid epi-
dernic of course. has no relation 10 the
contaminated sugar. The Surgeon Gen
eraI expects that d few more cases Of the
fever may develop during the next week
as a result OF drinking milk supposed TO
have contained the germ. but he believes
that by the end of the current month the
period of incubation. and consequently all
danger. will have passed
The typhoid outbreak probably viii lead
to the academy being supplied with milk
from its own herd of cattle.
Another case Of typhoid fever developed
