MORGAN WILL
 DEFY COURTS
His Claim That Steel Trust is a
 Legal Organization Causes Rise in Stocks
Especial from United Press. }


 New York, Sept. 27-After coming to the rescue of his pet railway shares and the entire stock list in general, on last Friday, as exclusive ly stated by the United Press, J. P. Morgan went to his office before the market opened, today, prepared to de- fend his title as financial king and, incidentally piled up few additional dollars for Morgan & Co. Morgan is determined that there shall be no financial panic precipitated as result of the agitation against the great in- dustrial com binations. It is because of this fact that he personally sign ed the steel trusts declaration of war in defiance of the government.
 The power of his name, he informed his associates, he expected to reasSure investors, generally, and that he was correct in his belief was shown in the fact that the market was bu1lish in the extreme.
 The steel trust intends to fight the government. It is understood that, at yesterdays meeting of the directors Morgan severely criticized certain di- rectors for having permitted the infer ence to get abroad that the trust was willing, voluntarily to dissolve. Nor gan, it is understood, called attention to the fact that the highest priced law yers in the world had passed on the organization and methodssof the trust and that it was in a far better posi- tion to resist dissolution suit than any other of the big constructural companies.
 Morgan is understood to have sug- gested the advisability of Judge Gary demanding that the attorney general, if he contempla&es dissolution suit, file it as soon as possible. By taking the attitude that the trust methods are absolutely legal and within the law, he is reported to have told his associates the financial situation would be immediately relieved and it was at his suggestion that last nights official statement was made emphatic along these lines.
 Just how strong the personality of King Morgan really is was shown when the market opened. Excited groups of brokers fought for positions near the Steel pole and at the bell wild. frenzied buying began. Steel Common sold at the opening at a range from 59 IA to 62, the transac tions being at a variance of three points in some parts of the crowds. The initial sales total1ed 3S000 shares and within 15 minutes gain of over points was shown over yesterdays close.
