the House committee on ways and
means, thinks that the approaching
session of Congress will De IN of the
busiest which that body has ever seen.
Before leaving for Washington, where
Mr.. Payne will arrive late today, he
said: There will be amendments to
the Interstate law, the postal
savings bank question will come up,
ship subsidy will be prominent, and the
Sherman antitrust law will need con-
sideratfon. I don't think Congress will
interfere in the Nicaraguan question,
which the State Department seems to
have well in hand. / don't think Con-
gress will investigate the sugar trust,
either: Mr.. Loeb and the Federal prose-
cutors seem to be doing very well
with that matter in New York"

SAY SENATE WILL FORCE
PROBE OF CUSTOMS FRAUD.
Leaders Declare They Will De-
mand Investigation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. ga con-
gressional investigation of the Sugar
Trust frauds and others perpetrated
against the customs house now seems
certain.
Senator Borah, Of Idaho, Republican,
and Senator Culberson, Of Texas, DEM
ocratic leader of the Senate, declared
today, each without the knowledge of
the other, that they would force a n
gressional investigation.
Senator Borah's only qualification of
his statement was that If Attorney
General Wickersham could show good
why Congress should not start
an inquiry he would not press the mat
ter.
Senator Culberson positively asserted
that the sugar scandal must be inves-
tigated. He hopes some progressive Re-
publican will take the Initiative, but If
not, the minority will.

The markets actions are not disap-
pointing to those who have persistently
maintained that its trend is towards
a higher level. The list has had much
to contend with in the way of adverse
factors lately. but it withstood them
all to the entire satisfaction of the in
terests behind the market. There has
been some liquidation. owing to recent
~unfayorable developments, but such
offerings all seem to have been well
absorbed. There has also been a con-
tinuous short-selling for the best part
of the week, and this has placed the
market In a fine position to bring about
a substantial recovery movement. This
is likely to materiaiize at n time.

WALL STREET NOTES.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-The Standard
fluence in the weeks stock market.
The disturbance of mind In financial
quarters caused by his was palpable.
1t was feared that projected mergers,
especially of the copper producers,
would have to be abandoned. Relief
in the progress of this merger was
revived and helped a later recovery in
stocks. Consideration of the readjust-
ments effected through changes grow
ing out of previous cases under the
antitrust and interstate
laws helped to reassure sentiment.
Money conditions grew easier with the
waning of the crop movement in this
country and the success of the Bank of
England in building up it's reserves.
Uptown Sentimental is the opinion
of important SPECTATORS and some of
the leading bankers that the recovery
in the stock market within the last
two or three days, notably on Friday,
has been due very largely to short
covering. 1t is pointed out that specu-
lative interests could not be expected
to buy stocks on an extensive scale
when the fate of the English budget
has not been determined and when
Congress will assemble within a few
days, and when uncertainties exist with
respect to various other important fea-
lures in the speculative situation. Many
speculative interests are more inclined
to sell stocks on a moderate scale when
they are strong than they are to buy
the1, whan they arc weak The recOv-
cry which set in on Friday is expected
to go somewhat further on short COW
ering and manipulative buying by a
few big interests, but it is believed
that If prices advance 2 or 3 points
further all around, a moderate reaction
will follow

of them took advantage of the Of

The Roast Beef of Old England.

Great Britain has been little Sc
we're on the growth of trusts in this
country. and has wondered, in her
public prints. that the American pub
lie has been SO long suffering; not
realizing, perhaps, that we have done
what we could to check the growing
power of monopoly, and have made
and are making the best fight we can.
1t will be curious, then, to see just
what England herself will do. now
that an American mOnopOly-the beef
trust-threatens to invade her dinner
tables.
That something was wrong with the
roast beef of old England was patent
last summer. when at the world-fam
Gus Smithfield market there was a
marked increase of prices. This was
SO sharp an increase and it affected
the country at large so vitality. that
it led to an official inquiry by the
British government as to whether the
American beef trust has got hold of
the market.
That committee, headed by the en-
ergeCic Mr. Winston Churchill. has
lust completed it's report, and al
though it does not say so in so many
words. it is evident, reading between
the lines, that the committee be
lieves its worst fears to be confirmed.
To a certain extent the English COM
mittee's Investigations have led it to
America, and it declares itself ''rea-
onabIy sure" that there is a combi-
nation of the four big American beef
companies, and it finds that they are
worked in concert so as to eliminate
all serious competition 1t goes on:
AS regards England. it is difficult to
believe that the English companies
representing the four big American
firms in England are competitive to
