Wall Street Receivers
From Its Nervousness

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Wan Street
was more complacent today, and the
price changes were of no particular i'm
pOTtance.
Some small advances were made, and.
in the case of Canadian Pacific and two
less important stocks, 2-point advances
were scored, these stocks holding firm
to the end, while other advances were
generally lost in the cleanup at the end
of the session.
The conservative trader is anxious to
go home even Saturday, and to stay so
until after the Supreme Court decisions
have been handed down on Monday.
The Street is anxious over the decision
OF the highest court on the Standard
OIL and American Tobacco cases, and,
after the stunning defeat of the rate
advance proposition, they are willing
to admit that the Supreme Court might
deliver another Knockout, which would
be much more serious than the Inter-
state Commerce Commissions opinion
unless 1t should contain some saving
clause.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
sent over few reminders of its power,
suspendtng proposed advances in coal
rates filed by the Baltimore and Ohio,
the Chesapeake and Ohio, and the Nor
FOLK and Western roads to be effective
March 10 until September Is, and in the
meantime the commission will investi-
gate the question of necessity for such
an advance.

Street Quets Dozvn TO Normal, With Prices Steady
NEW YORK STOCKS MORE SETTLED,
WITH MODERATE, ACTIVE, AND
EASY CLOSE.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-There were the
usual fluctuations in the security
market, nothing more. Yesterdays wild
excitement passed with the day, and
brokers as well as spectators and
banking interests were more inclined
TO look upon the furry as more or less
needless, the result of the complete sur
prise that came to the Street with the
utter defeat of the efforts of the rail-
roads to advance rates. At the same
time there are more advocates of the
theory that the advanced schedules and
the fight that the railroads put up in be-
half of their increases, were purely in
intended as counter irretants to any
movement that might obtain headway
TO reduce rates; and effective as such.
Then, again, the feeling is gaining
ground that the opportunity to unload
great quantities of stock yesterday
morning at the lower range was well
coined by insiders, in relieving the pres
sure pending the Supreme Court decis-
ion in the cases.
That the rate decision may have been
responsible for the big break is very
probable, but if the trust cases were
eliminated, the rate decisions would be
passed with but little comment, and
nothing could keep this market from

Synopsis of Preceding Chapters.

BY battling newspaper men. Mr.. Barker,
an attorney, who settled up the estate
OF his lifelong friend, John Deston, multi
mliiionaire, managed to avoid giving wide
publicity TO a strange provision In the
VIII of Mr.. Deston. The eldest son.
wilkes Deston, was ignored ana the great
estate was divided between a younger
son; Norman, and a cousin, Gerald
FORBES. Wilkes declared himself salts
ned with the settlement, since he, being
engrossed in scientific pursuits, had no
time for managing a great fortune.
After the conference at which the pro-
visions OF the will were announced, young
FORBES took Mr.. Barker aside and con-
fded to him the belief that his uncle
had been murdered. He adduced a chain
OF clrcumstantial evidence to support this
theory. The attorney tried to argue the
young man out of this belief, telling him
II was fancy Of a dlsordered brain.
When Gerald told the Descon brothers
and the lawyer that he saw a face at the
window. Mr.. Barker decided It was time
TO see physician. After he had sum-
moned one and left the Deston home Nor
man: the younger son. was found dead
in the hall
After the confusion an investigation Of
the premises was begun. Gerald Forbes
had not appeared. An examination OF his
room disclosed that II was vacant and his
bed had not been slept on during the
night.
