TAKES PHOTOS OF THOUGHTS
French Scientist Says He Has Got In
pressions of Them on Sensitive
Plates

Much interest has been aroused In
Paris by the announcement Of the
weli-kEown scientific investigator,
Commander Dsrget. of the success Of
experiments in photographing human
thought
Commander Darget, who has devoted
a long time to the study Of hypnotism
and kindred subjects, stated to the
Academy Of Science that after many
trials he had succeeded in obtaining
Photographic Impressions of thoughts
of concrete objects. He produced as
evidence two photographs, one show
ing walking stick and the other a
bottle, in each case the image being
perfectly distinct.
In explanation of his achievement,
Commander Darget gave the following
account Of the process:
After staring a long time on the OBJ
tect to be photographed In a strong
red light, concentrating all his atten-
ton on 1t, he fixed his gaze with all
the will power at his command on a
Photographic plate that had previously
been immersed in a weak developer in
dark room. At the end of quarter
Of an hour the image Of the object ap-
peared on the negative.
According to the commanders
theory. these astonishing results are
due to certain obscure light rays
which he calls W. rays.

A shoe manufacturer IN referring to
the increase in Job lot shoe merchants
said: 1T Is a peculiar situation when
a wholesaler Of Jobs exclusively 10 en-
abled to purchase whole carloadB Of
good staple shoes at tremendous dis
count from actual cost TO the shoe
manufacturer, and that is Just ezact-
ly what is being done.
1T is not to be understood that
these Job lot purchases are composed
Of rejected shoes or that they are of
odd sizes or anything Of the sort. They
are regular factory lines Of good sta
pie shoes IN full sizes and are sold at
a great sacrifice because so many fads
and innovations have crept IN that
good staple shoes remain In whole
salers' hands Surely there IL some
thing radically wrong and out OF joint
in the shoe business when such condi-
tons exist. Shoe and Leather Re-

FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL
A HEAVY MARKET.
Lowest Prices Of the Day Reached In
the LAST Hour.

New York, July 12.-Heeviness,
which subsequently Verged on weak
ness in certain issues, was the dom
inant note of today's dull and rather
perfunctory stock market session.
Prices were inclined to improve at the
outset, but selling orders soon appear
ed in Amalgamated Copper, Union Pa
cific and ST. Paul, the latter declining
to it's lowest quotation in almost five
years, on runnors affecting the crops In
its territory. Later Chicago and North
western declined for similar reasons.
AS a matter of fact, the weakness in
st. Paul which was far more active
than usual, probably arose from the
belief that the road has not earned
half Of it's reduced dividend require
ments for the fiscal year. This is
borne out by practically all its recent
statements of earnings.
Yet another restraining influence was
the fear that tomorrow's bank state
ment might be no less unfavorable
than last weeks. which uncovered a
deficit in the actual cash reserves. The
known movements of money point to a
small cash gain by local banks, but
hardly enough to restore the reserves.
Lowest prices of the day were made
in the last hour. when the list seemed
to sag Of its own weight Efforts to
break St.-Paul to par were ineffective
until toward the close. but from this
level feeble rally was made with
some slight Improvements elsewhere
Cali money did not touch yesterday s
high figure despite Increased demand
Time rates were without appreciable
change, and bankers are now hopeful
of greater ease.
London scarcely operated at all here
her few transactions representing pur-
chases Of Steel and Amalgamated. Al
though the settlements in England
have gone through without any hitch
money is getting scarcer and in kefneI
request in the open market.
Bonds were irregular, with some
strength to transactions. Total sales
par value, were $2.932,000.
