EXTREMELY NERVOUS

Conference
Vi'oog Finland. June 17. The Brit-
ish steamer Northburg has been fired
upon by Russian torpedo boats for
approaching too close to Pltkipas
bay on the Finnish coast where
Emperor Nicholas and Emperor Wil-
liam are to meet today. The projec-
tile pierced the Northburg and
wounded a number of her crew.
The incident shows the extreme
nervousness for the safety of Em-
peror Nicholas.
Great political significance is ad-
tached to the meeting of the two
rulers. It is fully recognized that
German mediation which brought
about a settlement of the recent Bal-
kan crisis was not altogether to the
liking: of St. Petersburg and that as
a consequence the support of the
Russian government in future might
be more likely to b Jven Great
Britain's continental poiicy than to
the German policy. The possibility
of close relations between Russia on
the one side and France and Eng-
land on the other has been viewed
in Germany with some concern.
A determined effort will now be
made to detach Russia from England
and France and 10 engage Russian
support for Germany. The personal
element plays a great part in inter-
naflonal European policies an' the
striking personality of the kaiser
counts for a great deal. The kaiser

COMMITTEE'S REPORT ON
MERCANTILE AND
METAL EXCHANGES
WORK ACTUAL HARM TO
PRODUCERS AND CONSUMERS
Various New York Stock and
Trade Exchanges ThereuEhly
Investigated
(By Associated Press)
New York June 17 The report cf
the committee appointed by Governor
Hughes to Investigate speculation In
securities and eomroiJltics and ihe
organizations used in dealings there
In was made public today. The New
ork stock the Consolidated Stock
the Cotton the Produce the Coffee
he Mercantile and the Metal ex-
changes i;'nd the curb market were
thoroughly investigated and recom-
mendations looking to improvement
of existing conditions were made at
length by the commlt.ee. The most
drastic finding Is that affecting; the
Mercantile and Metal exchanges a
follows:
"Under . present conditions we are
of the rpinlon that the Mercantile
and Metil exchanges do actual harm
lo prodmers and consumers and that
their charters should be repealed."
Concerning speculation In general
the eommllae declares that it may
be wholiv legitimate pure gambling
or something partaking of the quali-
ties of both that in some form it Is
i necessary incident of productive
operation:;; that it tends to steady
prices and that for .l.he merchant or
manufacturer the speculator performs
a so: vice which has the effect of in-
surance. "In l.tivv' so-yn the report
"sjioeulation becomes gambling when
the trading which it involves does not
bad and is not. intended to load to
the actual passing; from hand 10 hand
of the property tbif is dealt
"The rules of all exchanges forbid
gambling as defined by this opinion;
but they make so easy the technical
delivery of the properly contracted
for that the. practical effect of much
specula ion in point of form legiti-
mate is not gre'tly different from
that of gambling."
The committee mnk-os no pi-esnt-nifnt
against short selling but declar-
es th u ndency of such selling is lo
steady puces. It is recommended that
the thin' mum margin should be 20 per
cent and tdrong db approval Is express
eI of or inch brokerage off ices which
supply li'P'Or and resort to other Im-
proper means to Induce speculation."
GARFIELD EXPOSES
In a speech at. Detroit June 11
James R. Garfield cecretarv of Ihe
Interior under President Roosevelt
said: "The grand biry will decide
between Governor askell and ex-
President Itoosevlt.''
Oklahonians p'" t;'U' rally have
believed that Kiu;vrnv 'i.s town lot
grand jury i T'..wv.y ailed for
this very thint" (rt tuns far no state-
ment from a man in authority or who
has been in authority has liorne out
the theory until Mr. Garfield spoke.
"It is a deplorable thing" said a
iirominent Democrat today "when we
must realize that grand juries may
be organized and used to vent per-!
son-il spile. There is nothing morel
destructive of fieo government thar.i
to have courts Influence) hy motives I
of selfishness jealousy and v indict-
lveness." ECLIPSE OF SON TODAY
SCARCELY NOTICEABLE
There v.jci an eclipse of the su
wit'Iioul parallel In (he annals of such
occurrences today though If was
scarcely noticed In this locality. The
peculiar feature of this particular
eclipse is that it was both an erniular
and total eclipse at the same time.
It was possible .to note a small
iwtion of the moon's shadow on its
face for a short time In the terms
of those who study such
phenomena
this shadow covered about
of one digit or a section
the spare
one-tenth
the width of the sun disc
Th feature of this eclipse is the
fact that It is neither -annular nor
total so far as type is concerned but!
is hot'b. It is Rn annular eclipse j

and finally back to an annular
