This movement served also to reassert the influence of this group of stocks on speculative opinion in general. Pre- vious to their revived activity the mar ket showed merely a feeble vibration in the rebound from yesterdays slight depression. Southern Pacific and Union Pacific were the leaders of this rebound on the circulation of assertions that the

and widow OF the founder Of the Equit-

death of her husband. has been cut
off by Paul Morton. new chairman of

The stopping Of this pension was
part Of Morton's general scheme of
retrenchment and he carried 1t out In
spite Of the greatest pressure. Every
effort was made to get Morton to leave
this gratuity on the books, but he re-
fused, saying the time for sentiment
had passed, and wiped off the account.

will not be seriously inconvenienced
by this action of Morton. She is a
very wealthy woman anyway and her
sons fortune, aside from $4,000, 900 he
got from T. F. Ryan for the stock con
troll of the society, is considerable.
