TO FACILITATE THE
 TRUST INVESTIGATIONS.
Attorney General to Impress U. S.
 Attorneys Into Service.

Washington, Sept. 19-Attorney Gen eral McReynoIds is making a vigorous effort to expidate pending anti trust investigations and 90 keep abreast with all current complaints of viola tions of the Sherman law
 As a step in that direction the att torney general has decided to utilize 10 the fullest extent possible the ser vices of the United States attorneys throughout the country instead of largely confning anti trust inquiries as has been the custom, to the few special assistants in the department of justice. The plan S@ to reinforce the staff of special anti trust lawyers in the departm ent with the services of the United States attorneys As new charges of monopoly and restraint of trade are received they will be referred in many instances to conveniently To- cated United States attorneys equipped to undertake investigations.
 In that way it is expected the anti trust work which is growing fast, will be conveniently distributed and the crowded condition at Washington re- lieved.

this morning. The circulation of jan

lie going to local spot interests
The market was extremely nervous
and unsettled during the entire morn

with prices at midday about to Z

liquidation and scattered selling which
seemed to be inspired by reports of a
receivership for a chain of depart

After selling off to net decline of Q

less active and covering caused slight
rallies during the early afternoon.
