Street Aguaaung Tobacco Decision-Rnces Frn1er|
FRACTIONAL GAINS IN LEADERS,
WITH A FEW SPECIALTIES
MUCH HIGHER.

NEW YORK, May 27.-There was
comparatively little ACTIVITY in the
general list. with spurts here and
there, but on the two hours session
slight fractional gains were the or
der OF the day. Wall Street is anxious
for the decision in the Tobacco case
on Monday, and, strange to say, there
are many who hope that it will be
positive against the corporation. on
the theory that the agitation that
would follow a Government defeat
might result in amendments to the
law and an agitation that would not
be pleasant. The Cummins' speech
caused much comment and the ex-
tended opinion of Justice Harlan
also.
The attempt of Judge Gary to ar
range a compromise with steel max
ers and probable reduction of a dol
lar a ton in steel products, will be
made on Monday. If an understand
ing Is established there may be
cessation of selling orders in Steel.
The Mexican situation has ceased to
be an influence at this time. The crop
situation is causing some uneasineSs,
the long continued drought in some of
the agricultural sections, in the cotton
districts, and on the Atlantic coast have
apparently reduced the chances of a
bumper crop, one of the things es-
pecially needed this year to give the
business world a real cause for re-
habilitation and rejoicing.
The Washington times., 1911-05-27

The way in which prices hold up in
the face Of the continued gloomy tales
of the bears is an evidence OF the good
undertone. Best judges OF the situati
claim that the market is heavily over
sold, and that any really good news
would be followed by a quick turn
against the short interest. Rumors of
strikes and talk of a war in freight
rates are heard, but they will probably
be amicably settled without recourse to
strike or slashing.
The especially strong things on the
list were Western Union. Westinghouse.
General Electric, and American Tele-
phone and Telegraph.
Commission houses advise the pur-
chase of the market at present prices
with stop orders on every indication Of
weakness.

Says Metropolitan Opera Co.
Should Have American Head.

10y 10 Inc iilbunN'l
philadelphia. Nov. 9.-Reginald De
Koven to-day took hack at the Metro
poitan Opera Company and Gatti-
Casazza.
"The social aspect of the great Metro
politan productions and the social influ-
ences that are a part of the company
dominate it." said Mr.. De Koven. In
the Metropolitan we have an organiza-
ton that might he a great force for the
DEVELOPMENT of native music, just as the
French opera is. Mr.. Gatti-Casazza has
indicated plainly think, that he Is not
in sympathy with American composers
or American aims. and l believe there
fore that the Metropolitan should nave
an American head.
There is much talent in this country,
but | am not ready TO say that now we
have composers who can reach the ar
tistic heights achieved by the few great
Germans, Frenchmen and Italians. But
how are Americans to progress if they
are not given a chance TO develop? Con-
ditions imposed by the Records and ac-
cepted by the Metropolitan company
without any protest make it virtually
impossible for an American to have a
grand opera produced.
IF the Metropolitan really desired to
be a force for better musical develop
ment in this country it would give
greater encouragement to the lighter
forms, and, in a sense, just as scholarly
as the more ambitious works. There Is
much Of this sort of work being done in
Philadelphia, and it represents an i'm
portant phase of development among
Americans who are seeking greater
things. But ii receives not a whit Of
encouragement from the people at the

HOTELS WAR on TIPPING
Philadelphia Manager Drives Out
Checking Company.
IBy Telegraph to The Tribune. !

Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-Frank Kimball
manager of the Continental Hotel to-
night started a war upon the "tipping"
evil in the local hotels, as agreed upon
yesterday by the managers OF the hotels
when he cleaned out the New York COM
pany which had the checking privilege In
the hotel. Tonight he installed his own
employees, with instructions that they
were not to accept any gratuity under
the penalty of being discharged.
The New York company which had the
contract until to-night-and IL had a
five-year contract with the hotel-em-
ployed boys at 81 a week and set them
to work with suits containing no pockets,
the tips being dropped into a box placed
in the coakroom for that purpose. To-
night the "tip box" has disappeared, and
Kimball says he is paying his boys
living wage.
Three more local hotels are expected TO
follow Kimbalrs lead Tomorrow This
will eliminate the checkroom evil in the
city.
