NEW YORK, March 13.-There
was Intermittent and spotty strength
in the stock market today. but Ii was
not comparable to the aggressive up
sweep of prices which occurred yes
terday. The volume of the market
was decidedly diminished also. The
sustaining force of upward move
ments in special stocks was taken ad-
vantage of by profit taking which
showed itself on every occasion when
an advance WAS getting fairly I'M
der way. Some of the factors which
we're of use in lifting prices yester-
day had lost some of their influence
today and there was "A residue of
damaging effect coming over from
the previous day from some undi-
gested factors.
One of these was the setting on
foot by instruction of the president
of an investigation by the bureau OF
corporations of stock trading, with
the announced purpose of finding a
way TO penalize marginal operations
In stocks. The attitude among the
stock exchange membership toward
this subject is that the stock ex-
change itself has nothing to fear
from a revelation OF its methods. but
rather much to gain in the demon
stration which would be made OF
safeguards and securities behind OBJ
legations assumed in the regular
stock exchange procedure and the
dominant rule OF strict probity in the
conduct of brokerage aud commits
sion business in stocks. There Is no
disposition In stock market circles to
deny the evils of the bucket shoT
type of operations, against which. In
fact. stock exchange interests always
have waged an incessant warfare
There is a recognition also OF the
discreditable side of the occasional
ilagrant manipulation of prices ant
of plunging with the proceeds o
bank loans. But these are ev..i
which the stock exchange member
disclaim responsibility for, or, in
deed, power to prevent.
Against this influence In the mar
ket was the continued stress laid OIL

Protection Does Not Protect

The deluded workmen for the steel
trust are between the devil and the
deep blue sea. They are supposed to
be protected by the same tariff that
protects the trusts, but as Trust high
prices and the Republican policy OF
protection has produced a panic and
consequent business depression more
than half Of the trust workmen
have found themselves unemployed 81
far this year. II in order
to induce buyers the Trust reduces
the price Of its products, it is pretty
sure to reduce wages alsoy which
would be an acknowledgment that
protection does not protect the work
ingmen. But idle workmen will sure
come to believe that the boosted Re
publican prosperity is fraud when
they do not participate.
