the character of someone who is
far above them We see this ex-
emplified every now and then.

New York, Nov 22.-The financial community was as little prepared to- day to make a final appraisement of the import to corporations of the judicial decision against the Standard Oil company, as it was in the short stock market session of Saturday after the unexpected announcement of the decision. The disturbed tone of the market and the marked lapse into dullness when measures To support it became effective. were significant of the importance aattched to the decis- ion, and the wish to await a final dis position of the case before going for ward Copper stocks suffered particu- larly from the assumption that the new decision will prevent the pro- posed consolidation Of the principal producers United States Steel and Union Pacific also reflected the special bearing which the decision is sup posed to have on these companies Reading. on the other hand. was strong throughout and formed the rallying point for the opposition to q decline Bonds were easy.
