INTERESTING EVENTS

Crop Report and U. S. SteePs July
Statement Among More Con-
structive Features
Ru As.ncintrd Pre.t

New York, Aug 1.-THE week in
the stock market was crowded with
interesting developments, although in
terest in the market itself again con-
verged mainly around the war special
ties, including some issues of minor
Importance. The course of the more
important stocks, particularly the rail-
roads, was governed to greater ex-
tent than usual by the several de-
cisions handed down by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission.
First among these was the meager
increase in freight rates granted to the
western roads. while the second or
dered sharp cut in rates now charged
by the anthracite carriers, and yet an
other was of favorable import to the
soft coal lines. Between these varying
decisions the market for railways was
somewhat unsettled and a considerable
part of the improvement made in the
first days was lost later. Other stand
ard issues were affected to the extent
of l to 8 points.
Broader and more significant de-
velopments included the Mexican sit
uation and the further sensational de-
cine In rates of exchange on London
and Paris to lowest quotations in over
a generation. Negotiations for the
placing of additional credits here for
British and French interests are
known to be in progress, this being
regarded as the only permanent form
of relief.
The brilliant crop report and United
states SteePs July statement of un-
nlled tonnage were among the more
constructive factors of the week. Rail-
road earnings also proved more salts

to be made at the expense of reduced

 |S DEAD

BINGHAM, Mass, Aug. 30-John D. Long, former Secretary of the Navy, and who acted in that capacity during the Spanish-American war died here today at the age of 77. Born in Maine, his reputation was made in Massachusetts, serving four terms in State Legislature, three of which were as Speaker of the House. He was elected Lieutenant Governor and in 1879 defeated General Ben Butler, the democratic candidate for governor by plurality of 13,000. He was twice reelected governor of Massachusetts and served three terms in Congress.
 MT. Long was called to the head of the Navy Department when President Mckinley took office in 1897 and also served year in the cabinet of Presi- dent Roosevelt. He was under fire during the Sampson-Schley contro- Versy and rumors of his resignation were rife, he being accused of unduly favoring Schley. He refused to re- sign under fire and remained in office until his daughter died in 1902.
