New York, Jan. 15.-Continuel
liquidation has further unsettled tle
|stoCk market Firm rates for money
President Tafts railroad and corpora
tion bills, fears of unfavorable de-
LESSONS by the supreme court in the
Tobacco and Standard Oil cases, and
the break in cotton appear to have
been the chief unfavorablo influences,
AS for high money, that appears to be
"a settled tendency, and it is now
generally acknowledged that 1910 will
be period Of dearer money than
1883 This, of course, implies a gen.
Ieral REIMBURSEMENT of security values.
AS usual the high priced stocks arc
the first to feel the effects of a funda-
mental change like a permanent rise
in interest rates. Security holders
can easily find better employment for
their funds than in securities which
bring only 4 to AZ per cent A good
many stocks have been firmly held
during the past six months by insiders
who were aware of an impending in
crease in dividends. Upon the an,
nounccment of these dividends such
holders quietly sold for the reasons
just stated, and in this way stocks
have been passing from strong into
weaker hands for several weeks
past. The public have been the chief
buyers, encouraged by the generally
satisfactory condition Of business and
the reasonable prospects for its con.
tinuance.
Expectation Affects Values.
Wall Street, however, is in the
habit of anticipating events, and stock
exchange values consequently often
follow a course in direct opposition
to popular expectation. It thus hap,
peng that security prices are declin-
ing in spite of the favorable outlook
for the current year. Another reason
for the selling of stocks has ben the
publication of the two proposed bills
giving President Taft's ideas Of rail,
road regulation and industrial corpo.
rations. Neither Of these measures
were favorably received. The rail
road bill was much criticised for the
undue power which il gave to the in.
torstate commerce commission, a
body which is constantly seeking to
impose higher degree Of paternalism
upon our railroad systems. AS for
the bill for national corporations, that
measure is still more open to crltt-
cism, since it contains the highly oh,
jectionable feature of holding com.
panies, which have frequently proved
so hazardous and which the govern,
ment has been attempting to dissolve.
Both of these bills show a tendency
towards the Capitalization and growth
of federal power which seriously
needs to be checked, A national cor
poration law would deprive the states
of much of the power which they
now exert over corporations, and
would tend to the development of a
series of big corporations or trusts
such as would surely warrant revival
of popular clamor against monopoles
Fortunately there is no prospect Of
either bill passing this session Of
congress, and the discussion which
they are likely to provoke should re.
veal tdeir grave imperfections and
bring them to an early grave.
