FINANCIAL REVIEW OF The
NEW STOCK MARKETS

NEW YORK. dec. s.-The diStur-
bance In last weeks stock market
Was most lars ely the direct effect OF
Tho decision OF the supreme court In
ordering the dissolution Of the Hsrri-
man railroad merger. The decision
p"yond It's immediate bearing on the
ltarriman msIser. was regarded as
broadening the score OF the sherman
law by tn" general principles enun-
GATED. The definition OF a domin-
ant stock Interest" to include. in the
over instance. "a holding OF less than
an actual majority seemed to threat
IN tho legality OF numerous arrange
ni'nts among railroads. especially
among the Coalers. N was plain al
80 that confidence was impaired in
the ability II many OF the Industrial
combinations to meet the test of the
Interpretation OF the law embodied in
the decision.
~ To the effect on the Immediate
uctendants in the suit. IL was urged
Una the implied permission for Union
racine to retain Central Pacific al
lowed the actual result sought In the
original purchase or the southern Pa
enc. This did not calm fears OF harm
To values OF the properties concerned
from the REIMBURSEMENT Of relations
which would be forced.
n opinion that the merger de-
'ision was the prime factor In the
STOCK market disturbance was corro-
borated by he fac that other infiu-
enccs which have been most hurtful
'%t"ly subsidci. The stringency IN
the money market relaxed and a gen
'rhi feeling or confidence grew M

STRAIGHT
Engineer Makes Test to Show Big
Stack Stands True.

Hundreds of Topeka people have
been worried for fear that the new
Topeka Edison smokestack, which has
now reached the 200 feet mark in
construction. will topple over. To
them it looks as if the stack were out
of plumb. They have told the en-
gineers on the job of their apprehen-
sion. Consequently tests were made
was a special instrument by Luther
Tillotson, the superintendent of the
work, and it was found that the stack
is true.
MANY people have told us that the
stack was out of plumb" said Mr. Til
lotson. "It makes a great deal of diff
ference how you view the stack. The
light side cannot ne seen as well as
the dark. and for this reason one is
likely to get the idea that the construc-
ton is faulty
According to the l.perintendent the
stack would have to be several feet
out of line before there was danger of
it's collapsing.
