The Copper episode had very depress-
ing effect on the entire stock market yes
terday. At the opening of the day it
seemed probable that the general market
would not pay any attention to the selling
of Amalgamated and the first quotations
were fully equal to those at the close OF
business last week. Soon. however the
continued decline of Amalgamated under
very heavy selling orders, seemingly COM
ing from inside sources, began to tell on
the railway list, and during the after
noon there was general weakness every
where, with declines extending in the ac-
tive railway stocks from a point to two
or three points. There was slight re-
shorts.

Aside from the break in this one stock
and the large amount of gossip that at
tended it there was little of interest In
the news of the day. The talk of last

and it was said by the experts that in All
probability this week S statement also Will
make a good showing. The outlook is
very promising for the money market ana
it is giving conservative people little dls-
quiet Call leans were made all day yester-
day below the legal rate. Railway earnings
statements received were uniformly good,
as were also the compilations of earnings
statements made by the statisticlans ior
the past weeks and for the month OF July.
The earnings so far received for the hrst
and second weeks of September both show
increases of more than 10 per cent. Inc
net earnings for July make the hnest
showing vet recorded for any one month
during the entire bull movement They m
creased over the net of July, 1890. more
than 26 per cent. Sentiment was perhaps
not quite so confident in London as here
tofore. owing to the South African news,
but it is not thought that this Will have
any effect on this side, except perhaps IN

1t may be stated as beyond question
that the Standard Oil people are selling
the stock and letting the street know II.
What their intention is in these tactics
cannctb be known as yet with any certain
ty. 1t is also very clear that the same In
tcrests have been planning the coup Tor
some time The Standard Oil people are in
the control of the company and hence
were responsible for the cut in the dividend
on the stock last week. One very simple
and natural explanation of the situation
is that the company is not making as
much money as 1t expected and has had
to cut its dividend, and that for this rea-
son the insiders have been selling the
stock. Opposed to this are statements OF
the officers of the company that the cut
ting of the dividend is simply due to the
holding up of a portion of the earnings
of the company by the Western courts,
earnings which the stockholders are GER
tain TO get in time The impression is
very general, however, that the business
of the company is not as prosperous as IT
was expected to be. One reason given
for this belief is the condition of the
copper market, which is not as good as 1t

such a sharp and persistent break in

district OF Mr.. Bishop. OF Michigan. he
said. had six counties with frontage on
Lake Michigan, and a one had an appro-
priation in the bill.
And each one has a harbor.s interposed
Mr.. Bishop.
Have you ever examined the map Of the
State Of Washington retorted Mr.. Cush-
man amid laughter.
At another time Mr.. Cushman declared
that the Florida member OF the committee

latest and largest map He was especially
severe in his criticism OF the appropriation
secured by Mr.. Tongue. OF Oregon. fer bis

Columbia river between Portland and the
sea. the depth or water to-day was less by
seven feet than IL was before a dollar was

In conclusion Mr.. Cushman disclosed the
reason for his attack II was because tho

the contention of the appellants would Gre
ate the absurd necessity of having acts or
Congress as to revenue and other matters
extending in theory through tracts OF coun-
try In which they were utterly incapable
or enforcement. all the agencies of govern
ment being absent. 1t could never have
been contended that such a condition of
theoretical law ard practical anarchy
should arise"
While the attorney general was discuss
ing the rights of Congress 10 levy taxes
Justice Brewer interrupted To ask If. in the
opinion OF the attorney general. IL was in
the spirit and letter Of the Constitution to
have one tariff rate in the States and an
other in the Territories. Mr.. Griggs was
emphatic in his belief that IN was.
Justice White stated a case namely. the
setting aside OF a free port on the Atlantic
seaboard through which goods might be
distributed to the States, and asked il that
might be done. The attorney general said
at, such a port in a Territory ii might, but
that IL would be an abuse of power.
Justice Harlan returned to a point he
had brought into the solicitor generals
address, the right TO prohibit trade between
the islands and tie States. The attorney
general held this was in the absolute power
of Congress. BY creating indian reserya-
tons and by reserving islands in the north
ern Pacific the government. he said, had
shown that 1t could prohibit traffic and the
movement OF persons whenever ii saw fit.
Attorney General Griggs had not con-
cluded when adjournment was had. He
will continue tomorrow and will be fol-
lowed by former Secretary of the Treasury
Carlisle.

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind, Jan. 10.-Last
evening Sheriff Canine. acting on a writ OF
ejectment issued by the Putnam Circuit
Court, proceeded to the farm of Wesley
Grantham, east of Ladoga, and discon-
nected the track of the Chicago & South
eastern road, commonly called the Midland.
at the line of Grantham's farm. When the
sheriff had performed his work he left a
force of men on guard. They remained all
night, expecting trouble with the railroad
men who, 1t was anticipated, would go to
repair the damage legally done. But none
appeared. About 6 o'clock last night the
w~est-bound passenger and mail train was
tagged at the cut. 1t remained standing
until to-day when II was backed to New
Ross.
The litigation leading to the act of Sheriff
Canine is of long standing. When the road
was laid out and graded Thomas III. Mes
sick, of Ladoga, was one of the directors
and superintendent the construction across
his farm. There was no objection and he
was paid damages. In time Messick failed
and the farm was sold to the Madison
county Bank. A~fterward Mrs. Messick
bought the place, and she sued TO quiet her
title to the right of way. At the trial tile
defense did not appear and she was given
udgmen by default.
Mrs. Messick transferred her title 10
Grantham and the case again went through
the courts, a writ of ejectment being
granted, and Judge Baker refusing to en-
Join the action for lack OF jurisdiction. He
ordered that nothing be done for four
months. This time has just expired, and
yesterdays action followed.
This morning the Metropolitan Trust
Company and Theodore Davis asked for an
injunction against Grantham and the
sheriff, on the ground that they are trus-
tees of a mortgage older than Mrs. Mes
sick's title The injunction case will be
heard in a few days, and late this evening
Judge West heard argument for a temper
