SHIP RETURNS TO PORT
WITH FIRE IN HOLD
Passengers Disembark in Safety
While Crew and Fireman
Drown Out Flames

PHILADELPHIA, June 30.-The
Merchants & Miners steamship Gre
clan, which left this port yesterday
afternoon for Boston with more than
100 persons on board, returned here
today with a serious ire in the fore
hold. Eighty of those on board were
passengers and they were safely
landed.
The fire was discovered in the mis-
cellaneous cargo while the vessel was
passing down the Delaware bay last
night Captain Briggs called the crew
to fire quarters and began pumping
water into the hold. The captain
did not believe the fire would amount
to much and kept his course, but af-
ter passing out to sea and when he
was abreast of Cape May the fire ap-
peared to gain headway and the cap
tain decided to return.
The passengers left the buring ship
here without any confusion. The
flames in the hold, which are believed
to have been started by spontaneous
combustion, were drowned out during
the day. Twelve firemen were over
come by smoke.

RUSSIAN-J JAPANESE R. r.
PACT AWAITS SIGNING

WASHINGTON, June 80. = The
American charge at st. Petersburg has
informed the state department that
the agreement between Russia and
Japan in regard to the administration
of railroad and other interests in Man
churia, was communicated yesterday
to the French and British representa-
tives and probably will be signed in
few days.
The agreement is supposed to con-
tain a general statement as to the
maintenance of the status quo In Man
churia and as to the mutuality of
railroad interests. 1t is to be accom-
panied by separate agreement in de-
tail as to traffic arrangements between
the Chinese Eastern and the South
Manchuria roads.
If the agreement does not change
the status in Manchuria, then the
state department cannot object on the
ground that it is in violation of the
Root -Takahira agreement.

DROP WITH RUSH
ASSOCIATED Pressl

NEW YORK, June 30.-The ebbing
tide of values in the stock market be-
gan to go out at the opening this morn
ing with a rush that showed the lock
gates were wide open. The great bank
ing interests on whose tolerance all
movements of speculative expansion
rest, seemed willing to let readJust-
ment take it's course unhampered, and
rumors that J. p. Morgan was holding
a conference with powerful financiers
were met with the statement that
neither Mr.. Morgan nor ]. p. Morgan,
jr., had been at their offices today.
During the morning the market
seemed to have no bottom. An enorr
nous line of selling orders had accu-
mulated over night, and from the size
of the blocks that come out it seemed
that the holding pools of earlier up
ward movements were dissolving.
Steel, common, broke through the
price of 20, at which it has been said
it was pegged; Union Pacific sold at
decline Of 20 points from its mark a
week ago, and there were many other
new low marks for the season.
Late in the afternoon there was re-
covery due in part to the profit-taking
of shorts, and the lessened volume of
trading seemed to indicate that an
easier feeling would follow the violent
readjustment of earlier hours.

PRESIDENT OPENS
FOREST RESERVES
Signs Proclamation Which Makes
Nearly Half Million Acres Sub
jeot to Settlement
ARIZONA GETS BIG SLICE
Changes Follow Agreement Made
Between Agricultural and
Interior Departments

WASHINGTON, June S0--The pres
ident has signed several proclamations
eliminating nearly 100000 acres from
the lands of the national forests and
adding little more than 100000 acres
to the reserves.
The lands taken out are more suit
able to agriculture than for forest
purposes and later will be opened to
settlement. The additions represent
tracts best adapted to the growing of
trees.
The Beaver Head national forests in
Montana and Idaho have been deprived
OF 106,786 acres. About 98.563 acres of
these eliminations are located In Mon
tana and S312 acres in Idaho.
The eliminations in the Coconino ma
tional forest in Arizona amount to
203, ,344 acres and In the additions ag-
gregate 1OS,131. This forest, with its
changed boundary line, will be sepa-
rated into two reserves, one to be
known as the Coconino, with head
quarters at Flagstaff, and the other to
be named Tusayan, with headquar-
ters at Williams.
The Targhee national forest in idaho
and wyoming will lose 60.070 acres,
$500 acres of the eliminations being
located in idaho and $3.50 In Wyoming.
The Targhee forest will be divided into
two reserves, the northern part retain
ing the name Targhee, and the south
ern part being christened the Palisade
national forest.
Another proclamation eliminated 49,
OLE acres from the Deer Lodge national
forest in Montana.
I These changes in the forest boundary
lines were made in accordance with an
lgreement with forest classification
leached some months ago by the de-
Iartments of agriculture and of the in
Arior. The eliminations to date under
lat agreement aggregate 1,649,177
cres, while the total additions will
mount to 4s5,225 acres
