Liquidation of Steel Shares Continues Throughout
day with Result that Common and Preferred
Are Carried Down Fipe Points Each

If, therefore, a court action is to be
begun, the only possible meaning is that
the government has made demands that
those in charge of the steel trust consider
unreasonable, demands that they will
fight to the bitter end through the courts.
1t is extremely important, therefore, that
either the government or the steel cor
poration itself let the public know as
quickly as possible exactly what the
situation is in this respect.
One other report was that Herbert Knox
Smith, Commissioner of Corporations, had
finished the second section of his report
on the steel corporation, and that it
contained a drastic arraignment of the
trust on account of alleged pooling agree
ments. The first half of Commissioner
Smiths report, made some months ago,
was manifestly unfair to the corporation.
1t might easily he that, starting with the
false premises contained in the first part
of his report, he arrived at some re-
markable conclusions that make II neces-
sary for the steel corporation to fight
the matter out in the courts.
Weakness Of Steel preferred was the
most natural thing possible under the cir
cumstances. Warning was issued in this
column weeks ago against the purchase
Of preferred stocks of any industrial COM
pany selling much above par. In the event
of dissolution all preferred stocks would
have to be retired at par unless some
other method of retirement is specifically
stated in the charter of the company.
To give anything more than part for Steel
preferred would be an injustice to the
common stockholders. and suits in equity
would prevent it.

New York, Sept. H.-Liquidation Of the
Steel shares continued to-day, carrying
the common and preferred down more
than five points each. They did not
rally at the close, even after that break
The entire Industrial list was disturbed
by this further collapse Of Steel, but
the railroad list held remarkably firm.
Some railroad shares even showed net
gains as a result of the days operations
The volume of trading was heavy, with
Steel contributing about $4,000 shares
for the two issues. Steel shares were
more than half of the entire days BUSH
ness. To the official total saIes-nearIy
5o,0O0-on the market must be added at
least 100000 shares of stocks sold on
stop orders and not reported. In addi-
tion TO this the consolidated stock ex-
change had a business of 10000 shares.
Other houses reported heavy sales by
small investors, and this circumstance
usually means that the market is in a
position to be rallied materially.
Commercial reports were in circulation
that suits were to be brought against
the steel corporation to force dissolution.
E. H. Gary, head Of the trust, refused to
make any statement either confirming or
denying the reports. The government
said no suit had been begun yet" The
steel corporation volunteered more than
year ago to readjust it's affairs to
conform with the government ideas of
legality under the Sherman antitrust
law. The government agreed to give
1t an opportunity to do so.

FINANCE And REALTY

There was noticeable improvement in
activity at yesterdays session of the local
exchange, but no corresponding improve
ued TO bear threatening aspect. This is
ment in strength. In fact, prices contin-
believed in large part to be caused bV
sympathetic affection from the New York
stock market.
The prices were or between II and l
point at most, and nothing like a general
break in levels was seen. However, the
local market has shown a lack of stiffen-
ing ability for weeks past, and a little
Of this, kind of medicine would be well
coined.
Bonds figured we'll in the trading, a face
value aggregate of $4,000 being traded in.
AS usual, prices in the investment field
were steadier than in the case of some
stocks. Traction IS sold at Ill, Colum-
bia IS at 101h; Columbia Is at 10S 1-S;
Consolidated 5s, 1O1% and 101h.
Mergenthaler registered another frac-
tional decline, selling at 2251h, except for
one transaction, when the price was 225%.
In all, 10 shares changed hands in this
