ANTI-OPTlUN LAW
German Agrarians Accomplish
What American Farmers
Failed to Do.
Bill Prohibiting the Speculation
in Options Passed by the
Reichstag.
It Threatens to Exclude Many
American Stocks From Ger
man BOurSeS.

WASHINGTON, July l6.-At the in.
stance of the agrarian leaders, the Ger.
man reichstag has just enacted a law
prohibiting speculation in options, and
also intended to restrict speculation in
stocks. The new law, beyond doubt.
will affect seriously the sale of Ameri-
can securities in Germany, aside from
its effect upon grain markets. The an
nounced purpose Of the agrarians in
passing the law was to increase the
prices Of grain and in debates there
were plentiful citations Of the argu.
ments so freely advanced in congress
when the anti-option bill was being
pressed few years ago. Details of the
new law are supplied to the state de-.
partment by the United States CONNER.
cial agent at Weimar with explanatory
notes and comments. AS to stock spec.
ulation, the restrictions threaten to ex.
clude from the German exchanges a
large class of American industrial and
mining and railroad properties, and are
especially severe upon new projects.
How 1t Is Worked.
In each exchange government lnspec-
tors will be stationed. No stock can be
placed on the list except by direction of
q committee, at least a majority of
whose members are not members Of the
exchange. No stock can be listed unless
the corporation has been i'll existence at
least one year and has submitted a
profit and loss statement for the year
nor can any stock be listed until the
committee has thoroughly examined
into the soundness of the new corpora
ton, and satisfied itself as to the truth.
fulness of the statements made in pros.
pectuses. Any person guilty of deceit
in placing or promoting stocks may be
fined 10, 900 marks, and there are other
severe penalties for offenses against the
law.

MORE RIOTING AT CLEVELAND

Strikers and sympathizers Attack Nom
Union Men-Many Injured.
CLEVELAND. July l6.-Further dis.
orders occurred at the Brown Hosting
and Conveying works. The strikers
and their sympathizers attacked the
non union men, while the latter were
on their way to work. In numerous
cases the non. .unionists were beaten
with clubs and felled to the ground. c..
w. Jackson, one of the unfortunate
men who was attacked by crowd Of
union men, received no less than Is
cuts on the face and body, and had
three ribs broken. For time, the po-
lice, who were greatly outnumbered by
the rioters, were unable to cope with
the mob. The officers on duty around
the works were finally reinforced, how
ever, and succeeded in driving the en-.
ragged strikers back and rescuing the
non union men.

TACOMA. Wash, July l6.-The belief
Is growing stronger here that the Van.

the final link of Vanderbilt system to

indication in this direction is the fact
that Edwin Winter, the new president.
has been one of the highest officials of
the Omaha road. u Vanderbilt line. and
that he was called to New York in con
sultation with j. Pierpont Morgan and
the Vanderbilts before the announce
ment of his selection as president.
The Vanderbilts have in this state

ings in Tacoma owned by George Van
