MARKET GENERALLY
ON LOWER LEVEL
United States Steel Sets New
High Record at Opening
and Then Drops.
READING Is OBJECT
OF ATTACK OF BEARS
Announcement of Hill-Harriman
Agreement Has No Effect
on Market.

NEW YORK, May 26.-United States
Steel today followed the daily custom It
has established now by more than week
OF examples OF selling at new high
record on each successive day. Yester-
day and today the addition 10 the record
has been only I. and today this was
accomplished only on the opening sales.
After that the price moved with the rest
OF the market to lower levels. Most OF
the proceedings OF the day at the stock
exchange consisted in trading in Read
ing or watching the transactions in that
stock which overshadowed the whole
market and weighed on il with depressing
effect.
The high price at which Reading has
sold relative to its income yield has been
pointed out often by those skeptical OF
its rise. but followers OF the movement
an important deal which would rebound
TO the benefit OF its stockholders The
very large selling. orders in the stock
coming from a single brokerage house
gave the impression Of the liquidatio Of
an important speculative account.
The bear party found the stock vulner-
able TO attack and dislodged some large
stop loss orders at round figures in the
course of the decline The decline failed
TO develop the show Of support usual in
a stock in which an organized long ac-
count stands committed. The action Of
Reading was suggestive OF results that
might follow from concerted attack on
the market after an extensive specula ton
and chilled the ardor of buyers of stocks
II was supposed that some closing up
OF speculative accounts was prompted by
the belief that the authorities would de-
eide TO close the stock exchange Satur-
day as we'll as on Monday next week
Speculation is inclined 10 wait on the
next government report on condition of
the grain crops, which is not due until
June 4
Announcement was made with some i'm
pressiveness OF the agreement between
the Hill and Hartman interests for the
joint use OF Northern Pacific tracks he
yond Tacoma. and the Importance OF the
agreement as guaranteeing against f,l-
ture invasion OF each others territory by
these giant railroad forces was dwcit
upon with some ostentation. G upled
with this announcement was K. that
j.. H. Hartman had made his last Visit
10 his Office before his departure for
Europe on June ]. The announcement
tailed TO stir a ripple IN the market
a lively speculation in copper industrials
abroad resulted from the conditions OF
the metal trade. but New York coppers
were unresponsive. The break in the
price Of wheat was equally without in
fuenCe on the stocks.

tiouated 1895 car He tried yainly to

KEYNOTE rs
CONSERVATISM.

Conservatism is noticeable in the
views expressed by members of both
houses of Congress. Even those who
only few days ago loudly pro-
claimed their purpose to institute
sweeping Investigations into trusts and
controversies admitted that, on reflec-
ton, they had determined to make
haste slowly. Senator Borah, who
had announced his purpose thorough
ly to ventilate the affairs of the Sugar
Trust and it's violations of the Gus
toms law, said he would introduce
resolution calling for an investiga-
ton, but would permit it to ''lie on
the table" pending the conclusion of
the prosecutions being conducted by
the Department of Justice. Repre-
sentative Campbell, who purposed to
introduce a similar resolution in the
House, admitted that he had decided
to consult the Acknowledgement be-
fore doing so. Senator Nelson, who
intended to father an investigation of
the Ballinger-P inchot controversy has
for the present, at least, thought bet
ter Of it. Representative Hitchcock,
of Nebraska, a Democrat, introduced
resolution calling for an investiga-
ton of the General Land Office, which
went to the Committee on Rules.

one upon "Steera.se Conditions, as
affecting immigration, and one on
Immigrant Homes
Representative Mann, OF Illinois,
chairman of the Committee on Inter-
state and Foreign Commerce, intro
duced his promised bill for Federal
suppression Of the white slave
traffic through the power given Con-
gress over interstate and foreign COM
merce by the Constitution. 1t makes
it felony punishable by fine Of
$4,000 or imprisonment for Ave years,
or both, to induce or coerce any
woman. or girl to go from one place to
another in interstate or foreign COM
merce1 for an immoral purpose,
whether with or without her consent.
The purchasing OF a ticket on any
common carrier TO enable woman to
travel for such purpose is almost
made to come within the ban of the
law.
In the case Of a girl less than eigh-
teen years of age the penalties are
doubled. 1t also directs the Commits
sioner-G General of immigration to OBJ
tain and keep a complete record Of all
women immigrating to this country
for immoral purposes, and provides a
penalty of $4,000 fine or two years in
prison, or both, for persons harbor-

her record with the Commissioner
