A reversal Of form in both Washing

continued and confident buying of Rail-
way common were the noteworthy fea-
lures OF the session OF the local stock
board today. In the latter instance all
offerings at 20 were promptly taken,
and something over 100 shares at a
fractional better figure. while Gas stock,
which had bounded up to 5s9s yesterday,
dropped back to 5ssz and was distinctly
heavy at that point. Mitchell Mining

the Circuit Court for the removal OF Tins

the case.
The Fertilizer Trust cases have at
tracted much attention and have been
stuDSornly fought both by the govern
ment and the trust officials ever since
the beginning OF proceedings last May.

returned by the Federal grand jury
for the Middle District OF Tennessee,
sitting at Nashville. which charged the
defendants with consplring to regulate
the price Of fertilizers In the States
of North Carolina, South Carolina.
Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana, and Tennessee, in violation
OF the antitrust law OF 1890. 1t was
charged In these indictments that the
combination controlled ninety per cent.
OF the fertilizer product OF the coun-
try and that through the Colonial De,
velopment Company, as a common
medium, prices were fixed and the
amount of sales regulated, the result
being cost in the aggregate of not
