THE r MARKET.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The cotton
market opened steady at an advance of
1@4 points in response to higher Liver
pool cables and the continued large
English spot sales. There was a slight
recession shortly after the opening. but
demand from scattering shorts was
sufficient to absorb offerings, notwith-
standing good weather In the South,
and the market during the middle of
the morning was quite steady in tone
with prices s to Z points net higher
on active months.
The market was very steady late in
the forenoon, and at n time showed
q net gain of about S@12. points on
scattered covering and some moderate
buying for long account. which was
encouraged by steady Southern a
kets and talk of a better inquiry from
spinners. Prices were within a point
or two of the best at midday.

PATERSON, Sept. 10.4Al day to-
day depositors, many of them women,
waited around the closed bank of Ben
jamin Kolerstein, 1O1 River street. He
disappeared last Saturday. and the
police SO far ave been unable to locate
him. His wife, 20 years old. remains
in Paterson. She is with friends at 8
North Bridge street. Detectives say
she has received a lettsg. from the
banker, and they think she will at
tempt to join him. ~ tti
T. was an angry crowd that loitered
around the Kolerstein establishment.
Those in 1t were for the most part
Hebrews, and it was plain that if they
could only lay their hands on the
vanished custodian of their funds he
would be subjected to severe treatment.
1t is estimated that Kolerstein has st
least $4,000 of the money of .depositors
in his possession.
Kolerstein came here six months ago
and hung out a bank sign. Joseph
Conklln, State bank examiner, ordered
him to Take it down. He remained in
business, ostensibly as a steamship
agent, but the banking department has
learned that he also continued to re-
ceIve money as a banker and agent.
Kolerstein disappeared when custom
ers began to complain of the failure
of relatives on the other side to receive
money supposed to have been for
warded to them.

''In the iron and steel trades the bet

which means that the Standard will
pay 40 per cent. in 1908.
Discussing the reasons for the COM
pany's prosperity, one of its officials
said that the most important was prob
ably the fact that in so-called hard

use of kerosene oil as an illuminant,
from motives of economy. Then, too, a
growing source of profit was the de-

general, and the demand for oil for use

STANDARD LAYS
HUGE FINE To ITS
JERSEY HOLDINGS
Oil Trust Lawyers Say That
Was Basis for Imposing $780,
100000 in Indiana.

CHICAGO, Sept. 10.-Counsel for the
Standard Oil Company. of Indiana, in
an answer filed today to the govern
ment attorneys petition for a rehear-
ing of the appeal from Judge Landis's
judgment fining the company $29, 240.-
900 for violations of the anti-rebate
laws, uphold the decision of Judges
Grosscup, Baker and Seaman, Of the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals
reversing the Judgment and lifting the
burden of the enormous fine, as COOL
law amply Justified by the record In the,
case.
The answer takes up arguments of
the petition for ~rehearing which set
forth alleged errors and particularly
suggested that the upper cou had
erred In. its understanding of what the
trial Judge really had said concerning
tho previous offenses by the Standard
OIL Company, OF Indiana, or the stand
ard OIL Company, Of New Jersey.
1.-THE real point Is" says the answer,
did the trial court in imposing punish
ment take into consideration the rela-
ton between the Standard Oil Company
of New Jersey and the Standard Oil
Company of Indiana, and did 1t base
its fine upon the wealth Of the Standard
oil Company of New Jersey and its
ability to pay instead of pom the
wealth of the Standard Oil Company
of Indiana and it's ability to pay"
The conclusion stated by the answer
is that the enormous fine inflicted
upon the defendant was because Of the
n xynarch;o oF a.. o&z1tr -, %h1 Cfo-1nrI
Oil Company Of New Jersey and be-
cause of the financial standing OF the
corporation, is beyond dispute
the entire opinion of the trial
court Is considered"
On the question of knowledge of the
rate on the part of the defend
ant shipper. which was one Of the
points on which great emphasis was
laid in the petition for r~ehearing, :he
asserts that the exceptions of
the governments counsel are based on
a Misrepresentation of the opinion and
the record in the case.
On the point of the number of Of
lenses which the petition for rehearing
was obscure in the opinion of
reviewing court, the answer con-
tends that the governments counsel
has raised a cloud where there is none.
and that the ruling of the court clearly
shows that the number of offenses was
regulated by the settlements and pay
Of which there were thirty-six.
and not by the carloads, numbering
1,462, on which the fine was p~redicated.
The answer asserts that the govern
ment counsels suggestion that the re-
hearing be granted in order to certify
a question to the Federal Supreme
Court Is not a proper one. because
there was no division of opinion among
the judges of the reviewing court.
Copies of the Standard Oil Company's
answer were served today on the chief
clerk in the office of United States Dis
trict-Attorney Sims.
The answer will be presented to
Judges Grosscup, Baker and Seamon, Of
the United States Circuit Court of APP
peals, and will probably be considered
at the October term of court, which
opens October 8.
