One of the things that. aside from

STOCKS STEAD|ER
Spectators Pause to Consider the
Situation Created by injunction
Against Rate increases.

New York, June 2.--The specula-
ton IN securities today showed dis,
position to pause and take stock Of
the situation creaed by the injunction
against the raising of the western
trunk line freight rates. There
seemed to be q consciousness devel-
ored that the headong rate at which
damage is feared from this action
was being discounted might have in
IL quality OF heedlessness. TIE
question arose in the minds of eager
sellers Of stocks whether they might
not be sacrificing their own holdings
anu at the same time playing into
the hands OF other speeulatons over
Wnom the are seeking to obtain an
advantage. The new measure inau.
gurated by the department of iustice
remained the central topic OF Discus
sion but that discussion showed al
cropping lack of clear conception OIL
the proper significance to attach toll
the matter
On the part OF the stock market
operators, and to some extent of the
railroad officials, there is neardI
some criticism of the western trunk
line committee for the methods tbeyl
pursued in seeking the rate advancesl
which have been enjoined. The factI
that one agent was used bk all thel
railroads in filing the notices of theI
advance IS cited as almost chai.l
Ienge to the government authorities
to test the prohibition of rate
agreements in the antitrust law. It'll
is supposed that the advocacy Of the
Amendments to the authorize agree
ments Of the administration nad emil
bodcned the railroads to attempt
this est of the question. Meantime,
tac rejection by congress of the pro.
posed authorization of railroad
agreements on rates left it practical
ly mandatory on the law officers to
take up the challenge.
The character Of the discussion
which was going on Indicates dis.
position to query the significance Of
the new law against railroads. OF
the consequences which are feared
there was evidence in the apprehen.
sion expressed by the iron and steel
trade organ that the action IS a
check TO the demand from the rail-
roads for equipment and material.
A nyl In giu al
New York Central had asked for tine
Of its order for new
freight cars, said to amount to bc-
tween five and six million dollars.
there were rumors, also, of propos
ed heavy reduction of the working
forces by the railroads
The acute weakness of st. Paul is
attributed to the fears for the ineeg-
'ity of the dividend without higher
charges for ran portation. The eff
feet Of the reduced net earnings OIL
railroads on the placing of railroad
bones abroad is another phase OF
the problem given much attention
The tone of the money market was
distinctly easier, the liquidation in
he stock market and the reduction
n the official discount rate of the (
Bank of England, both conducting to
nat result.
The stock market closed but little
changed from yesterdays colsing

not otherwise have forgotten their
manners
The explanation of the incident Is
found in the recent Democratic pri-
maries for the nomination OF a Repre-
sentative in the Second district. Harry
L. Maynard, the incumbent, was de-
feated by William A Young, the ma
chine candidate, but the fact that the
returns from four precincts were
withheld until the Young managers
learned how many votes their candi-
date needed, and that when the miss
ing returns were counted they barely
gave Young the nomination, aroused
public Indignation and charges of
fraud
Il was at a mass meeting held to
protest against the nomination OF
Young that Senator Martin appeared
and was Kissed when he attempted to
defend Young and the Martin poll
tieians who were accused of manipu-
lating the returns TO beat Maynard
Under the circumstances the treat
ment accorded the Senator must strike
unbiased friends of good government
as about what he deserved A con
ception Of the political significance of
the rebuke can be had when one
realizes that eastern Virginia has here
tofOre been q Martin stronghold

ginia has been guilty of many Offenses
against the public interest 1t has re-
