Combines.

Investigation Being Made to
| Ascertain Whether or Not
Dissolution DEGREES Were
Carried Out.
HE HAS AN ALTERNATIVE

Washington. June 5.-Attorney Gen
eral McRevnolds today declared that
he had always regarded the final de-
cree intended To dissolve the tobacco
trust as "obvious subterfuge" and a
miscarriage of Justice. and If there
We're amy proper and just way by
which he could cure the evil he would
dc it, AS an Immediate step he is
considering proposing tc congress a
graduated excise tax on tobacco manu-
features.
While such Il plan Of taxation could
not be called a tariff for revenue only
measure. MIR. McReynolds contends
that ii is an emergency measure de-
vised tn meet the pleas OF independent
tobacco mapufacturers that the disso-
luton of the so-called trust has not
relieved them of a situation which they
say threatens to place them in as
much danger as they were from the
trust before it was dissolved.
Considered by Cabinet.
Whether the decree of the United
States supreme court in dismembering
the Standard Oil company and the
arate units are being carried out was
considered yesterday by President
Wilson and his cabinet 1t WAS am
nounced that this WAS done with the
view of instituting the most import
ant anti trust movement Yet under
taken by the administration.
MIR. McReynolds never HIS agreed
with the dissolution of the so-called
monopoly and is said to feel that many
of the evils charged against IL stili are
cob ,;,uing in other forms.
Inf e,eition to correcting alleged in
eaual4ss = by such y method of inter
nal w. taxation, the attorney

ability OF beginning an Investigate
to determine whether the d.
Solving the tobacco trust is being
violated.
Doubt Legality of Move.
Most of the attorneys of the depart
mcnt of justice agree that the govern
ment could not reopen the dissolution
ease and future movements must be
supplementary. II is pointed out that
decree of dissolution declined to grant
former Attorney General Wicker
sham's request that the government be
permitted to reopen the decree at any
time within the next five years in case
it developed the plan of dissolution
had not accomplished the purposes of
the Sherman law
MIR. McReynolds today resumed con
sideration of the Standard Oil situa
tion, comforting with Charles H. Nor
rison and Oliver Il. Pagan his special
assistants, who have devoted months
to an investigation of oil conditions.
With their report before him. it will
now devolve upon the attorney general
to decide whether there is prma facie
evidence of the violations of the dis
solution tn Justify the government In
|attacking the oil interests by contempt
of court Or criminal proceedings.

WORLD TAKES GRIP
ON PURSE STRINGS


New York, June 5.--The excitement
on the stock exchange during the first
hour of today's market was probably
without parallel since the panic of 1907.
Stocks We're literally poured out re-
gardless of quoted prices with de-
clines greatest in the standard sha; IS.
One of the main factors making fo"
the liquidation was the overnight news
from Washington, indicating II radical
attitude on the part of the adminis-
tration in connection With The Ameri-
can Tobacco company and the Stand
ard Oil compan. Another influence
was the deeidedly lower level of prices
quoted by 11ondon before our opening.
Foreign Cables.
All advices from abroad i'.;iicated
increased pessimism not only in Lon
don but all continental financial oenters.
Inquiry among local banks ard trust
companies failed to elicit any &atisfac-
tory explanation for the further slump
in prices abroad except the note of
extreme conservatism sounded in those
quarters.
~ steady decline of the last few
weeks has resulted in general call
ing, of loans by financial institutions.
This has made but slight impression
on the money market, but a stiffening
of rates for both call and time accom-
1nodations is expected before the end
of the month.
Shares in Demand.
Within the first hour sales of stocks
amounted to 100000 shares and 80 new
low records for the year We're made
with losses ranging from to points
among the standard issues. The aver
age of prices was at the lowest point
since the 1907 panic. Some of the new
bond flotations. such as Baltimore &
Ohio convertibles. New York city new
4hs and St. Paul 41as also We're de-
pressed.
There We're several feeble rallies in
the second hour, but the selling move
ment gathered greater momentum be-
fore noon and lower prices were reg
1stered practically throughout the list.
The aggregate of sales during the
morning session was we'll in excess of
100000 shares.
