CHART ISSUED COMMERCE COMMISSION
REVENUES
MAY STOP ARBITRAGING
Report of Stock Exchange Com
mittee Anxiously Awaited.

The New York Stock Exchange houses
that conduct an arbitrage business be-
tween this city and London On what IS
known as Joint account with LONDON
Stock Exchange houses, are anx1ously
awaiting the report OF committee OF hVe
which has just been appointed by the STOCK
Exchange authorities TO investigate these
transactions, with view TO finding OUT
whether they constitute a violation OF the
commission laws Of the exchange.
There is nothing the Stock Exchange Is
so Jealous about as the sancttty of its COM
mission laws. and if the special committee
finds that these are being violated in the
present instance, there is little doubt IN
brokerage circles that it will recommend
the suppression of the arbitrage business.
It was pointed out that several years ago
the Stock Exchange authorities put an END
10 the arbitrage business that was for
merly conducted in considerable volume be-
tween members of the exchange here and
members of exchanges in other cities.
Arbitraging between here and London Is
carried on in considerable volume, ana us
suppression will mean q considerable loss
to the houses that are engaged in the busl-
ness, The cable companies will suffer also,
as il is q profitable business for them. The
Stock Exchange authorities hold. it is un-
derstood, that Stock Exchange houses IN
conducting these arbitrage transactions on
"ioint account (Which means for their
mutual benefit or risk with foreign bank
ing houses, are practically guilty OF split
ting commissions.

KEPT GREEK SHIP IN SIGHT
Revenue Gutter Watches Themis-
tocles on WAY to Sea.

It wns learned Yesterday that a revenue
cutter followed the outbound Greek liner
Ihenistocles when she left this port on
Tuesday to see that she did not dispose of
any aliens on her way to sea: She had
been thoroughly searched on her arrival
here on Sunday by customs officials, who
were looking for undesirable aliens whose
names did not appear on the manifest
After a conference yesterday with the
customs officials Commissioner Williams de-
cided to so before the Congressional Com
u1ittee Immigration and make an effort
to have the law amended so that he might
get convictions against certain steamship
lines which violate the immigration law It
is said that the Commissioner is anxious
to have the law so changed that he will be
able TO have the charters of such lines re-
yoked.
1t is alleged that the immigration in
spectors found four Greeks in the crew Of
the TheInistocleS who declared that they
had '-signed on III the hope of getting to
this country without passing through ELLIS
Island 1t Is said that they showed re-
CENTS for their transportation, and declar.d
that they had made the bargain with officers
OF the Themistocles.
The immigration inspectors demanded the
naIes of the officers and made an effort to
have them detained but the captain pro-
tested that they We're under the protection
of the Greek flag. and the inspectors had to
let them go 10 sea.

Commerce Commission Orders
Reductions on Upper Berths.

Washington. Dec. 21.-Forn1al orders were
announced by the Interstate Commerce
Commission to-day reducing the prices
charged by the Pullman company for upper
berths in sleeping cars. An order also was
issued providing that efter February J.
1911, certain specified reductions IN the
charges for lower berths northwest of Chi
cago should be made.
Originally complaint was filed with the
commission by George S. LOTUS, Of ST.
Paul, in which It was alleged that various
cessive. subsequently Oklahoma, Iowa.
Kansas Indiana and Arkansas, through
their railroad commissions, instituted COM
plants of alleged excessive rates for upper
berths- The whole question was tIlrashed
out by the commission at hearings. The
Pullman company finally agreed to intro
duce a scale OF lower rates for upper
berths. To this proposed scale the COM
mission gave tentative approval.
In the decisions announced to-day II is
held. iD the LOTUS case, that the maxi
mum rate for lower berth from st. Paul
to Seattle shall not exceed s11, and for an
upper berth IS so; from ST. Paul TO Chicago
the upper berth rate not TO exceed 81 so;
from St Paul to Superior, the upper berth
to Fargo or to Grand Forks. the upper
berth rate not TO exceed 81 co.
In consonance with this holding, an order
is made requiring the Pullman company TO
put these rates in effect not later than

The matter of a lack OF space for fancy
skating on the three regular lakes was
brought to the attention OF Commissioner
Slower by exponents Of that feature a short
time ago. 1t was pointed ont to Mr.. Slower
that as fancy skating was not permitted
On the crowded lakes, It was impossible to
hold any such carnivaIs or 1eets as would
be possible if some place were Set aside
for it. Following the conferences on the
subject Commissioner Slower decided to
permit it on the conservatory lake, which
has been practically unused during the
winter months
