They predict par for Amalgamated as T starter
 A dangerous feature of the stock market Is the promotion of number of industrials that look very much like "Wildcats." Some of them may eventual " pan out but in a majority of cases they are grotesquely over capitalized and indications are that the public will be stuck" by buying the shares at fancy figures not justified by the merits oi the enterprises. The public Is talk ing too kindly to these rainbow fiota- tions and already hundreds of millions Of dollars of foolish money has gone into them. The prophets are saying that eventually there will be an awful scandal. The stock exchange is charged with giving undue encouragement to this line of enterprise. II looks almost as though the exchange would allow anything to be listed that gave prom ise of big line of commissions to it's members. To such an extent has this

The street is looking forward with deep concern to the probable early decision by the supreme court in sev- eral cases. The two to which atten- ton is being particularly directed are those involving the life of the anthra- cite coal trust and the validity of the Union Pacific-Southern Pacific merger.
