ing in favor of the government in the
suit brought for the dissolution OF the
Standard Oil Company under the anti
trust laws. the stock market was Of the
same character exactly that 1t has been
throughout the week.
The standard stocks. or most Of them.
were inactive. but decided strength was
shown In specialties There was again
vigorous buying Of the copper stocks.

shares of this group to the highest points

ment
The leader this morning was American
Smelling and Refining common, which
has latterly not participated notably In
the general advance. although an even
greater rise than that made in Smelling
took place in Utah Copper, and was at
tended by rumorS of a contest for con-
troll Of the last-named company. Other
strong stocks among the industrials were

On the other hand, the Rock Island
stocks were rather weak features Of the
railroad list. for which explanation was
found in the publication of story this
morning declaring that there was dissen-
sion In Rock Island management due to
the supposed interest that some Of the
men prominent in the affairs OF the COM
pany were taking In railroad lines that
are to q greater or less extent compel
itors of the Rock Island.
When the action of the federal court
in the Standard Oil case became known
the market developed weakness. Closing
prices were somewhat above the lowest
of the day. but were still such as to
leave general and In some cases large
net recessions In prices.
All that was known regarding the
Standard Oil decision In Wall street to-
day during business hours was that the
suit had gone against the company by q
una rimous court decision that was said
to sustain the government on nearly
every one of its contentious. II this were
q final settlement OF the matter the event
might be regarded as Of serious nature
from a financial point OF view. but. of
course, the present decision II merely in
the court Of first instance, and the points
of law involved still await a permanent
adjudication in the Supreme Court of the
United States. which may be considerably

Western Union Reform.

The official announcement of the ac-
QUESTION Of the Gould holdings Of West
ern Union stock contained a statement
that one Of the reforms in view was
the savings of some odd millions of dol
lars in the cost Of operations. That
means the cutting out Of thousands OF
competitive stations and other curtail-
ments in service. All of these so-called
economies IL carried out will tend to
stimulate the popular desire for govern
mental ownership of independent lines
Enough is already known to warrant
the statement that the incoming Congress
will be asked to take up this matter with
zeal and earnestness 1t will be alleged
that money expended In this manner will
be Of greater general benefit than If in
vested In interior waterways, irrigation or
arid lands, or in the construction of a
$500. 100000 ditch across the Panama
canal.
That long advertised merger of the big
copper producing companies has taken
sufficiently tangible form to merit daily
bulletins Of conferences between the Gug-
genheims and the Amalgamated people
and the Cole Ryan representatives.. with
a half promise that deal will be pull
ed off before the end of the year. all
hands agreeing to their due share of the
securities in the consolidation.
It does not appear that such important
producers as Calumet-He or the Unit
ed Verde will participate Just how far
Phelps. Dodge & Co. are in sympathy
with the proposition does not appear.
They may or may not be included in the
Cole-Ryan sphere Of influence.
Merger to Hit Little Fellows.
If merger, such as seems to be under
way, IL actually put through. 1t will not
seriously interfere with the big indepen-
dent companies. but it will play
hobbs with the little companies. They
will ind themselves heavily handicapped
in every direction with freeze-out and
bankruptcy at the end Even ii they

Bank Statement Feature.

Comparatively little interest was taken
today in the weekly bank statement,
which along with the Standard Oil deci-
sion constituted the chief news of the
day since general anticipation was that
the statement would be of favorable char
.ncter, and it is realized that the money
situation here and throughout the coun-
try was changing steadily for the better.
The bank statement in no way fell
short Of expectations. although II ex-
hibited a divergence rather greater than
has lately been shown between the aver
age and actual figures of the return. The
feature of the average figures was
striking decrease OF SCI .6OS9OO in loans,
which, in spite of the influence of loss
In bank cash of nearly $4.O0O,OOO, re-
suited in an increase of 81, $4,000 in the
surplus reserve.
In the actual figures a decrease of but
1881 600 was shown in the loans and a
decrease of 81. cocoon in cash. the conse-
uuence being a decrease in the actual
bank surplus of 1891, 600. No light on this
disparity was shown by the statements
of other banks where the exhibit was Of
a decrease Of $1.1OO.OOO in loans and of
k1.574 600 in cash. Sterling exchange to-
day advanced sharply, despite the recent
gold exports to South America and
further small engagements of gold for ex-
port were announced

Standard Oil influence.

Practically. therefore. the matter stands
substantially where 1t did before today's
decision was announced, and its influence
as a stock market factor was probably
much overestimated by Wall street At
tention Is necessarily drawn, however,
to the fact that a legal affair Of even
greater moment to Industrial organiza-
tons is involved in the argument soon to
be heard in the United States Supreme
Court in the suit of the government
against the American Tobacco Company.
In this case, too. decision adverse to
the company has been made by a lower
tribunal. although the conviction has all
along been in financial circles that the
ground taken by the court here was so
advanced and sweeping in it's anti-c cor
poration bearing that 1t is by no means
likely to be followed by the court of last
resort.
In fact the feeling has been in Wall
street that the decision Of the court of
appeals in this district In the tobacco
case was really made to illustrate the abb
surdity of the antitrust law as 1t stands.
Moreover. it is not at all impossible that
before final legal pronouncement is made
upn these issues the present antitrust
law will he amended nv Congress-
