NO DISTURBANCE
Felt in Yesterdays Stock Market Over
Sudden Death of n. n. Rogers
Stocks Strong.

New York, May 19.-The stock mar
ket has rarely met the death of a cap
italist of foremost prominence with
las little disturbance as was caused by
the sudden death Of H. H. Rogers,
this morning It was concluded, from
this, that there was little ground for
the anxiety professod for several days
past that the speculative position had
become unstable and vulnerable.
From passive resistance to depression
the tone passed to positive strength.
The demonstration of resting power
could not well have had any other con
sequence since the fear of over specu.
latiOn and a too heavy condition OF
values which might lead to violent re-
lapse in the case of accident, had been
the sole unfavorable factor which
could be pointed out in the situation
Prices have suffered more serious
set backs often on rumors of Rogers
ed today following his death Rogers
mas represented to Wall street super,
sttiCn, as much as any one man, the
central figure of the vaguely defined
STANDARD Oil Group which is tho
most potent of all the dimly Gpprc
hended forces which work concealed
from view and supposedly armed with
the most complete knowledge of con.
ditions and control over their regula-
ton.
The extreme effect of Rogers de-
mise was measured by The decline OF
"a in the price of shares of Amalga
mated copper, of which company he
was president; 21s in Consolidated
Gas, and ] in St Paul. in which he
was a director, The reason for this
quickly came to he
understood in the general Withdrawal
of Rogers from the stock exchange
operations of late years
The impression of a strong underly
ing condition of the stock market po-
sitiOn was not the less strong on aC-
COrnt of explanations OF the resistance
shown. Factors of encouragement IN
the outlook, which have been in abcy
aucc for several days. came into play
again. Unicd States Steel, of which
Rogers was director was conspicu-
ously strong, rising through it's pre-
vious record price Nof $50, to 1914
ard MILO 1T 50 ais
touched a price never before reached
10y that stock. The movement in steel
was attributed to the restoration OF
wages by independent steel companies
and differences drawn from that action
RS to the returning profits of the ia
dustry even at lowered prices al
which recent heavy orders have been
booked.
