sHRrNKAGE IN TRUST STOCKS.


Whether recent adverse legislation in
this and other States against the trusts,
or the natural and growing alarm among
investors by reason OF over capitalization
has causd a setback to the big combines,
certain II is that within the past month or
two trust stocks have failed to show that
seductive character which they enjoyed
only a short time ago
The Chicago Tribune a few days since
told us that Chicago investors and brokers
have suffered from shrinkage OF s.. 900 =
600 in trust stocks during the last three
months, New York holders OF trust paper
have probably lost 1--WE times this sum
from the same cause. The loss all over The
country would amount TO a good many
millions The Chicago paper thinks that
individuals who have had their fingers
burned with trust common" may regard
It as a hardship. bu; IN fact ii is Ma
toual blessing. This shrinkage OF inflated
trust values. says the Tribune, is the most
heelthful feature OF the present business
situatiop-the FIRST sign OF a check upon
the trust craze.
There is a lesson IN this to those papers
and people who have not the courage OF
their convictions. To discredit such In
vestments as those in trust stocks is to
seriously hamper the trusts. If the capt.
talistie public that holds back from honest
and promising Individual enterprises in the
hope OF embarking upon q career Of whole
sale robbery in combinations, Is informed
through few wholesome State laws that
popular sentiment is determined 10 break
up monopoly the investments in trust
stocks win very naturally fall off and trust
securities will begin TO shrink.
The people, the politicians to the con
irary. have about agreed that the trusts
constitute one OF tho greatest dangers
to this country and must be checked In
proportion as this conclusion is expressed
in State legislation the salutary effect can
be noted. To this extent adverse trust
