DECISION CAUSES RISE.
Market 4dCances Quickly, 7cith
Reading Leading the Way.

The expectation of a decision from the Supreme
Court of the United States in the commodities
clause case which has caused uncertainty IN the
stock market during the morning hours Of every
Monday for weeks. realized yesterday, but IT
was long after the first news from Washington
that the market really got its bearings" Reading
was as usual Mondays. the market leader, and
after opening at 147 and saggng in the first hour
20 1857 was a little above 1i6 after when
one OF the news bureaus sent out over its ticker q
bulletin saying that the decision had come and that
the court affirmed the constitutionalty Of the com
nodities clause.
There was A general rush 10 sell stocks. the
principal pressure being directed against Reading,
which fell 1895 in few minutes. Then came a
bulletin from another news bureau announcing
that the case had gone in favor OF the railroads.
and a swift recovery occurred Reading advancing
to 147l4 in a few sales and the other coalers and
the general list also moving upward.
Further bulletins left the situation in much doubt
for time, and it was not until nearly O'Clock.
by which time of the points OF the opinion
had been transmitted the Street that operators
were able TO arrive at the conclusion that the Su-
preme Court had virtually sustained the position OF
the defendant railroads and allowed them to CON
tnue in the control Of coal properties where such
control was exercised through ownership Of stock
in companies holding such properties, the Lacka-
wanna being the only oae Of the defendants not
being situated.
From that time on the market advanced. with

was that tic interests identified with the road had

rFrom The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, May 3.-Representative Murphy
of Missouri made serious charges against Fed
eral Judges John F. Phillips and Smith Nc
Pherson, of the Western District of Missouri. in
a resolution introduced in the House to-day. He
asks that committee of three Representatives
be appointed to investigate the conduct of these
judges when they deciding litigation be-
tween his state and the railroad companies over
the maximum freight law and the 2-cent pas
senger law recently passed by the Missouri
Legislature.
The resolution cites that the two judges took
fishing trip with the attorneys of the rail-
roads, when occasion the members of the
party were arrested for violation OF the game
law. The resolution also charges that Judge
Phillips neglects his duty by continued absence
from the bench. and that both the judges rem
dered decisions which usurped the power of the
Legislature and unconstitutional Mr.
