SUCH A REAL HEADACHE HAS
 WALL STREET
Sharp Bulls and Bears White. paved by Lambs Who in
 Past Were Easy Meat
Speculative Element of Stock Market Hit Hard and Paper
 LossPut at $1OO,OOO,O0O
Special from United Press.)

(SpeCIdl ITOIII OHIlSu TTeSS.I
 New York, June s.-Wan street had a real headache today. Also it was ashamed to be seen in public Smart financiers, the men who in the past have so merrily "fleeced the lamb'' are sore and they snarl when spoken to. They had been ''whitepawed'' and the job was pulled off by the very element that in the past has been considered fair meat by the sharp
 A week ago yesterday the market was quiet. Whatever speculation there was was confined to the pro- fessional element. Prices were at a good level and brokers were preparing to take lengthy summer vacation. Then came a flood of selling orders seem ingly out of the clear sky Before the breakers could interfere with value, especially the so-called standard rail- road shares, prices had been driven down. Panic prevailed before it was learned that the selling orders ori- ginated in Washington and fmmedi- ately following the location of their source came the announcement that the attorney general had decided to institute an injunction suit against the railroads which would result in the dissolution of the pool agreement and keep rates rom adVanclng.
 But before this news was thoroughly digested the insiders had skinned the milk and taken away the cream. All of the money made came from the speculative element in the street as it was the stocks 1t was holding to unload on the lambs that were de- pressed in value. The. paper loss for the day was enormaus, approximating more than $100,0000O0 in the entire stock list.
 Then London came to the rescue and the market rallied slightly, re- maining in fair shape until Monday when the western railroad presidents conferred with President Taft. That conference was, late in the day but an hour before the market closed ''in- spired" information leaked out in the Street" that there would be no agree ment reached. Prices broke again Professionals fell over each other to sell and actual panic conditions pre- vailed for 45 minutes. Then mysteri- ous buying orders appeared and all of the standard railway shares were picked up'' in hurry at bargain prices.
 The market opened yesterday with all the stocks up three to eight points and the professionals who sold so cheerfully the day before had. to pay the higher prices to deliver the goods. All Ody they SOuSul tO lOcdle the source of the smart buying of IS min- utes on Monday but it developed it was the same slick crowd of Washing ton and their allies that had originally struck the market before the attorney general began his suit.
 They caught the street going and coming. The hysterica1 selling of the day before had been arranged so that they could get the stocks they needed at bargain prices and the slick brokers fell for the game. No one in the streetstoday would hazard a guess as, to how much money the smart men took away at the expense of the pro- fessionals but it was admittedly a very large sum.

RAILROAD PRESIDENTS WIN IN AGREEMENT
 WITH PRESIDENT TAFT
Especial from United Press.


 Washington, June S.-Among Sena- tors much curiosity is expressed today as to. the basis of the cheerful satis- faction displayed by railroad presi- dents over their agreement with Pres ident Taft regarding increased freight rates.
 '"The railroad presidents are happy, said one Senator who had studied the railroad bill closely, because they have in all probability obtained what amounts to an amendment to the Sherman antitrust Law. They tried hard to get such provision into the bill in the section legalizing rate agreements but the fire was so hot that the sponsors for the bill were ob- liged to eliminate it. Neither the Senate nor the House would stand for such encroachment on the Sherman won their greatest desire by negotia- tion.
 ''The government did not sue the railroads. on the charge that they had raised rates. The charge was that they had violated the Sherman law by combining to raise rates and thus forming a conspiracy in restraint of interstate commerce. That was the cause of all the excitement in the rail- way world, not the prospect that their new rates would be held up for a while.
 Under the arrangement entered in to, as it is generally understood, the increases will be subject to the ap- proval of the Interstate Commerce Commission, but no question will be raised as to the legality of the action of the railroads in having a committee of agents file rates temporarily. It was in the matter of acting together rather than the question of rates that the railroads were most interested and I miss my guess if they have not got under shelter"
