New York, Oct 29-Prices moved up
during the morning despite unfavOr-
able development in the international
money situation. The rise in private
discounts at London to 515 percent
the bank of England's rate.
Lower prices abroad influenced the
tone of the market at the outset Sen
timent was also affected unfavOrably
by reports of a wage movement among
employees of the western roads for
wage increases, and further reduction
in prices of steel products. An up
turn which set in early in the day
proceeded steadily until leading stocks
had reached a level one to ~ above
yesterdays close The shorts were
nonplussed by the strength of prices
and bought rather freely.
y Bonds were firm.
Banks called loans and marked rates
up to 81 percent. This caused throw
ing over of stocks, which to a large
extent Cancelled the previous rise.
Preparations for the November inter
est and dividend payments and the
restriction of supplies generally for
speculative purposes were responsible
for the jump in money figures.
The market closed heavy The de-
cline carried prices under the open
ing low level Selling of Steel was
accumulated by the dismal review of
trade conditions by the Iron Age. A
sharp rise in various New York City

STATE RIGHTS FIGHT
STARTS OVER RATES
National Association OF Railway Com
mission Tables Resolution On
posing Intra State Rate REGULATION

Washington, D. c., OCT. zy.-A states
rights decision, as relating to the pow
ers of individual states to regulate rail-
road rates, was precipitated unexpect-
edly today at the convention of the
National Association of Railway Com
missioners.
Commissioner L B. Finn. of Ken
lucky, after reading a paper on the
subject Should congress extend the
power of the federal government to the
regulation of intra state rates. in
which he opposed such extension of
power, offered a resolution setting
forth his views.
The resolution was about to be
adopted when commissioner John H.
Marble vigorously objected to the adOp-
ton of so important resolution with
out consideration. He was strongly
seconded by counsel Barrow, of the
Louisiana commission who declared
that on account of the action of the
Texas railroad mission, which de-
veloped the Shreveport cast, now being
heard by the supreme court, ruin is
staring the people of Louisiana in the
face and the transportation situation
IN our state has become iDtOIerable."
Mr.. Barrow insisted that if the power
of the interstate commerce commission
to remove discr- limitation of this kind
were not sustained. the Texas state
commission soon will be making rates
Tor the whole southwestern territory"
After some lively debate the resolu-
ton was laid on the table by a vote OF
20 to 10.
