GOVERNMENT ACTION
UPSETS THE MARKET

New York, June 5.--The obtaining
by the Attorney General of an injunc-
ton against the proposed increase in
Western trunk line freight rates last
week had the effect Of throwing the
stock market into CONSERVATION. No
other one subject could be selected
which would affect the speculation in
SO many directions as the question Of
rate increases.
The complaints Of high cost OF liv-
ing from all quarters have been as
clamorous from the railroads as from
any others. and the recent advances In
wages have been used as text on
which to base claims for increased
compensation. The speculation in
stocks has been expected on the bene-
fits of the rate advances ever since
notice of the intended increases were
first filed with the Interstate Com
merce Commission in April. It is
claimed also that sales of railroad

The immediate future of the market

situation is. however. likely to cause
American spinners to further curtail
their consumption. On the other hand, |
the outlook for the new crop is now
so favorable for big Yield that new
crop options will be more difficult to
bull or manipulate even in sympathy |
with the speculative position of the |
ODD crop months. Thus the buying
over of domestic spinners and the |
speculative and investment demand !
from outsiders is likely to be sufi- |
ciently curtailed to throw the whole
burden of bulling the market or even |
