MORGAN HALTS
DROP in STOCKS
Wild RumOrS Caused a De-
mOraIized Market This
Morning
lUT NEAR PANIC IS
CHANGED TO OPTIMISM

BY The United Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 22-Alarmed over
he raids Of the stock market growing
ut of the rumors that the govern
nent planned to force reorganization
# the United States Steel Corpora
ion, ]. P. Morgan and the syndicate
# bankers, having international con-
lections, hurried TO the rescue today.
Within the brief period of half an
lour they changed panic to optimism.
Not since the financial furry Of 1907
las the power of money been so forci-
Sly manifested on the floor OF the
stock exchange.
The market opened demoralized.
The exchange was flooded with sell
ng orders, and with the opening,
conditions bordering on chaos pre-
vailed. Steel common dropped five
points in fifteen minutes, Steel Pre-
.erred fell like lead and most OF the
standard railway systems followed
suit. The air was flled with wild
rumors and reports Of impending tall-
ures. For the first half hour even
the old timers on the exchange were
Inclined to believe that a panic was
impending and could not be averted.
Morgan Checks the Call.
Then the Morgan power began 10
evidence itself. Brokers usually con
sidered as representative OF that nrm
began buying the standard railway
shares. They were assisted by the nooI
representatives Of the internatloha
banking houses and they took all Of
ferings with a nonchalance that IN
dicated the millions behind them. Inc
selling movement was quickly cneca-
ed. not alone in railways. but IN All
of the industrials, including Steel. By
noon the tone was buoyant and all OF
the morning losses had been recoV-
cred.
For market purposes it was e1,
nlained that the crusade against steel
was engineero7 by a noted bear oper'

NO UNFRIENDLINESS
SAYS BORDEN
By The United Press.


HALIFAX, n S., Sept. 22.-"The
verdict of the people of Canada was
in no wise dictated by any spirit Of
unfriendliness 10 the great neighbor-
ing republic" declared Robert L.
Borden. leader OF the Conservatives,
in discussing the overwhelming defeat
of the Liberal party and its recipro-
city program, today 'No such spirit
Canada has simply affirmed her ad-
herence to a policy of national devel-
opment that she has pursued for
years. The government, without
mandate from the people, undertook
to reverse that policy and upon sub
mitting their action to the people
were defeated.
1T is my conception that the
friendly relations between Canada
and the United States can best be
maintained if each country preserves
complete and entire control over its
own tariff and enters into no entan-
Cling agreements which might im-
pair and affect that control"

sentative of the legal profession ever

linger paid a tribute to the western
men as a whole, and to western law
yers in particular. He said in part:
The men of our profession are too
prone to look on the material side,
and yet at the beginning of this re-
public the lawyers shaped its poll
cies, and in the annals of constructive
craftsmanship the great lawyers sac
rificed time, means and energy for the
permanency, protection and advance
ment of the republic. Many of the
great lawers of today are in the pay
of the great commercial organizations
of the country and are incapable OF
helping their communities and nation
to proceed along safe, sane and stable
lines. There can be no stability OF
government unless its immutable and
fundamental principles are support
ed by the people,"
