Probably also there will be a declara- ton in favor of the registration of cer- tain corporations having the means to become monopolies engaged in interstate commerce so as to give the national gov ernment such provision over them as IS now exercised over transportation agencies.
 In this connection there will be a pro- nouncement in favor of national control as against national ownership. Cogni- zance will be taken of the demands of labor to the extent of recommending such legislation as will insure labor organiza- tions against snap judgment by the courts

 'The work of soil utilization in the Sixth district will, l presume, be conducted in the future along much the same lines as heretofore, namely, discussing vital soil problems in the local papers; giving per sonal aid and advice to individual farm CTS concerning the management of their soils; and ferreting out the particular crops and varieties of crops best suited to the different soils of the individual farms In short, the work will be directed along the line of aiding the farmer to make his farm pay better than it has ever paid before, by studying with him the specific needs of bis different kinds of land

NEW CURRENCY LAW IS WELL RECEIVED More Standard Oil Suits Are
 Threatened PRICE OF STEEL BARS Cut In Price Caused Furry Among Allied IndustrIals on the Stock
 Market-Money on Call

PRICE OF STEEL BARS

New York, June 7.-The early strength and the later unsettlement in the secur- tiles market last week were attributed to the continuation of some of the influences relied on to advance prices and the de- velopment of some more doubtful factors in the situation. The conclusion of the session of Congress with the enactment of an emergency currency law was made the occasion for quite a demonstration in the stock market.
 Such a movement had become almost a fixed tradition in the stock market with the professional element since the era when control and regulation of corpora ton affairs has become a prominent sub- ject of legislative attention. The adjourn ment of Congress is regarded, from the point of view of that element as a prom ise of surcease from threatened activities which are viewed with more or less ner- vous apprehension by security holders
 The reports later in the week of fur ther prosecution in contemplation against the Standard oil company and of possi- ble fines running to a maximum even greater than those in the former suits, caused a revision of sentiment in the minds of spectators who had assumed a period of exemption for corporations. This feeling was responsible in part for the sharp reaction in prices. There was perceptible also some revision of opinion of the effects to be looked for from the operation of the new currency law. The provisions of the law were pointed ont at first as serving to relieve the United. States treasury from some of it's respon- sibility for making the customary pro- vision for meeting the fall stringency of the money market As the running deficit in the government revenues keeps the treasury cash resources drained, the ques- ton of resources to put in the autumn money market, threatened some difficult

Steel Trade Development.


 The developments in the steel trade, aroused some fears that wage contro- versies would be the outcome in both fields. Outside the element of professional and habitual stock operators, it is difficult to realize how large a part the unexpected Union Pacific bond issue has played in the movement of the securities market. The large operations have been based constantly upon the suppositon that the friends of the Union Pacific property pri- marily, and bankers and capitalists, moved by similar motives. have fostered and protected the upward movement of prices to help on the demand for pro- jected new capital issue.
 The action of the market from time to time seemed. to show the powerful. con trol exercised by these forces With the conclusion of the Union Pacific trans action, there arose misgivings over the future action of the market Conditions in the money market moved steadily io- ward greater ease, both here and abroad The reduction in the official discount rate of the Imperial Bank of Germany marked the final response to the relax ing tendency where it was most belated Money on call in New York loaned as low as l per cent, and rates for time loans also were shaded. Foreign ex- change rates, nevertheless, yielded in New York and the end of the gold export movement was believed to be reached There was a growing confidence also in the crop promise in spite of mixed ad- vices of weather conditions through the week

 District Is Concerned.
 On the other hand, the financial dis trict was somewhat concerned over the assumption that the new form of the taxed currency might be issued to meet the ordinary needs of expansion in the crop moving period, has not yet reserved for such extraordinary exigencies as those which developed last fall. Such an as- sumption was regarded as involving a possible threat of imitation which might precipitate a sentiment of distrust amongst foreigners and send American securities home to this market.
 Some of the earlier bullish enthusiasm in the stock market was associated with the concerted demonstration in some parts of the commercial and industrial world of professed confidence in the early resump- liOfl Ol prosperous dcllNlty. lNe of some large orders in the St. Louis dls- trict and the enlargement of production amongst the New England textile mills were effective aids to this demonstra tion It was enumerated sharply by the an- nouncement of a cut in the price of steel bars which was given formal sanction by the United States Steel corporation. Off, ficial protestations of the intended strict limitations of this reduction did not allay anxiety over the possible extension of the movement generally to all lines of products. The involvment in the problem thus presented was indicated by the con- tention of the operators in the confer ences between the Western Bar Iron as sociation and the Amalgamated Associa- tion of Iron, Tin and Steel Workers. A connection is assumed between the pol icy of attempted maintenance of prices in the steel strade and of advance of freight rates by the railroads and the hoped for avoidance of cuts in wages In those fields

A GOOD ARTICLE.

An article in last week, Goodwin's
Weekly headed "The meanness and
mendacity of it," is good thing .
read in these days of idolatrous de-
votion to the golden calf. The article
depicts in fitting and self-proving
terms how the goldbugs have robbed,
pillaged and trampled upon the pro-
ducers of the land in order that I'M
holy gains might be swollen and then
swollen again, the robbers meanwhile
slandering and deriding those who
have stood out in protest against the
great wrongs. The comparatively
small amount raised by the silver pro-
ducers to aid the first Bryan campaign
compared with the immense sums
raised by the goldbugs, amounted to
the merest trife, yet such papers as
the New York World and Times--both
Democratic-have the utter and un-
relieved meanness to mention the for
mer as a corruption fund while omit
ting all mention of the latter, which
is just as well for them, since no
amount of argument would yield
moral strength to such cause
