BIC RECEIVER FEES CUT.
Court Effects Saving of S220,000 for
 knickcrboclScr Trust Co.

New York, June 5,--Declaring that the original allowance of S75,O00 for each of the three receivers of the knickerbocker Trust company, and the same sum for their counsel amounted to spolIation of assets, and that to allow 1t to stand would inc pair confidence in the administration of justice, the Appellate Division of the Supreme court in Brooklyn to-day cut those fees down to S20,00O for each man.
 Justice Clark of Richmond who ap- pointed the receivers, allowed them S15,000 each for their services, and a like sum for the counsel The re- ceivcrs were Henry C, 1de, Ernest Thaman, and George l.. Rives, An appeal was taken by the trust com- pany from this allowance. and the Appellate Division has now unanim- ousy affirmed the order obtained by the company.
 Justice Gaynor, who wrote the de- clsion, said:
 "The amount allowed was so grossly excessive as to amount to a spoliation of the assets of the trust company, and the order must be revised or modified for that reason. To allow 1t to stand would implant general dis trust in the administration of justice.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Dealings Fall to smaller Total Than
 for Several Months.

New York, June 5.-There was but seanty matter of interest in to-day's stock market. The total of the days dealings discloses a violent shrnkage in the volume of dealings, the days sales falling to smaller total than for several months. During the lat ter part of the day the long halts of the ticker disclosed a condition of almost entire stagnation. There was some reduction from the usual dcal- ngs on account of the dulness of the London stock market where there will be a holiday tomorrow and Monday. Aside from this there was no appar- cnt explanation of the sudden lapse of interest The demand for stocks was exceedingly meagre, but the cessation of the selling, which flooded the mar ket yesterday was even more remark able. It was this feature which open ed the way to the slow recovery in prices. Union Pacific continued to hold it's dominant place, and except for some supplementary interest in Reading, there was really nothing else calling for notice in the days proceed ings. The postponement of the public offering of the Union Pacific bond issue, subscribed for by bankers was given some influence as deterrent from active operations, The conclus- ion of that financial transaction, howA ever, is ascribed as the principal req son for the sudden cessation of the aggressive operations to hold and ad- vance prices of stocks.
 Forecasts of the currency move mcnt to and from New York during the week promises a gain on balance for this center of $10,000,0O0 to $12- 100000, the sub-treasury contribu- tion of $3429,00O being included.
 A rise in the price )f lead here and of copper in London was of some influence on the industrial stocks in those trades.
 Announcement of the omission of the semi-annual dividend of the Mis- souri Pacific railway company was l made after the close of the market. Stock of that company was weak in the late dealings.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales par value, $2,dSS,0O0 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

It is a little difficult to analyze the point of view of the leading iron and steel manufacturers now that they have adopted such radically different policies. Judge Cary was quoted today as saying that he was not "stickler for holding prices, which surprised those who have credited the Steel cor- poration with being the leading agent in the continued reaairmng Of the schedule The best opinion is that in the four products, like rails, wire, structural steel and plate, which few large producers control, there will be no price reduction, but that in other products where many small independ- ents are competing against one anoth- CT, reductions are likely.
