COMMERCIAL MARKET
BIG INGREAS Sc IN
SELLING ORDERS

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE ac-
tion of the stock market today
was watched with curiosity and
some anxiety for indications of
the wider effects of yesterdays
action of the supreme court and
the effect it will have in delaying
the final settlement of the anti
trust cases.
1t was evident that the violent
rise in prices yesterday had
brought into the market large
selling orders both for home and
foreign account Side by side
with these was an influx of fur
ther buying orders. The latter
We're believed to be largely for
the short account, the bears be-
coming alarmed over the sudden
rise of prices.
The toning down of the first
effects OF the supreme courts
action was due to the more con-
servative view taken of its eff
feet by the financial and business
community at large than by the
stock market element.
It is believed that every large
corporation will feel itself pro-
scribed in its plans and in the
scope of its activities until the
questions at issue in the anti
trust cases shall be definitely
settled.
An early decision would have
been preferred, therefore, to the
indefinite postponement involved
in the rehearing of the cases.
Other news developments were
of mixed effect. The resort to
arbitration of the parties to the
New York Central wage dispute
was confirmatory of the conf
dence that labor troubles would
find a settlement without wide
spread strikes this year.
The prospects of agreement in
the soft coal mining controversies
deepened this conviction.
The public pronouncements of
the executive heads of the United
States Steel corporation and the
Amalgamated Copper company
processing satisfaction with trade
conditions seemed to be taken
with reserve.
President Ryan's hopeful an
alysis Of the copper trade condi-
tions encountered the falling price
Of copper metal in that market,
and Chairman Gary's incidental
reference to the falling off in un-
filed orders on hand to be shown
at the beginning of the new
quarter received as much atten-
tion as his statement that there
is a rising scale of orders in the
current business OF the corpora
tiOn.
There was perceptible a mod
Grated confidence in predictions

dend on United States Steel.
