More ConaplracN Talk.

Al least one of tho predictions OF the
character OF tho rate decision has as
serted that n considerable portion OF the
document will be devoted TO a denuncia-
ton OF the railroads for engaging In a
gigantic conspiracy TO create public SEN
timent In favor OF per cent advance
In rates This seems hardly plausible
II the Interstate Commerce Commission
makes any such remarks II will he acting
In an entirely disingenuous manner The
railroads made no extraordinary attempts
to influence public sentiment IN their
favor. Not one dollar was spent by them
for publicity. There was no fund for
such a purpose. The Pennsylvania did
have ono OF Its officials send TO the news
papers extracts from the testimony given
In the hearings. but this was simply in
the ordinary course of business. The
matter distributed in this way was con-
fined to testimony which had been ad-
mitted to the record. Moreover, the COM
mission was entirely aware that this was
being done and made no objection. As
matter OF fact the commission had been
consulted on this point in advance. While
II is not believed. therefore, that the In
terstate Commerce Commission will make
any such accusation. against the railroads.
II Is thought that II might with perfect
propriety criticise the widespread public
clamor for per cent advance and the
way in which the case was prejudsed in
many quarters high and low.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


That only the absence OF any consid-
cradle liquidation In Missouri Pacific
bonds has saved these securities from
much lower prices seems a reasonable
hypothesis. For some weeks bond ex-
perts have been advising their principals
against offering these securities because
the market for them was 30 poor as to
make them practically unsuitable There
were no transactions IN any OF these
bonds yesterday. but the difficulty of OBJ
tanning q bid for five Missouri Pacific
per cent convertibles was a highly sig
nifcant incident These bonds which
sold as high rs 69h 4 week ago. and at
6fh on Monday. were offered all after
noon long without finding q buyer. A
quotation appeared on the tape Offering
thom first at 66k and later In succession
At 6bH, ssh, ssh. s5k and finally IS,
but without avail Tho offers were made
At decent Intervals, 30 that there was
plenty OF time for anybody who thought
he could place them to communicate with
his prospective customer. At the close
the best bid vas So The smallness OF the
Offering only emphasized the poor mar
ket. Had II been an inconveniently large
block OF the bonds some lowering OF the
bid might have been expected, but Ave
bonds Ia the equivalent OF only fifty shares
OF stock. Perhaps the demand for this
bond may not be fairly representative of
the state OF the market for Missouri Pa
clfio securities as a whole. Nevertheless
1t is another illustration OF the poor light
in which the credit of the road is re-
garded.

An Old Tradition.

The death last week Of James Camp
bell. president OF tho North American
Company. was followed promptly BY a
marking down OF the bid for the stock
That Is entirely in accordance with Wall
street practices and even In the present
dull times could not fail to be observed
As far back as the oldest living inhabitant
can remember II has been the custom to
record such events In just that way. And
yet except In tho case OF a big market
operator taken off suddenly In the midst
OF a speculative campaign II is perfectly
well realized that there IL no good rea-
son for expecting immediate liquidation
from such a cause. The necessity Of COM
plying with the legal forms alone would
prevent selling OF stock for the deceased.
Nor In II reasonable to suppose that the
executor OF the estate OF the deceased
would disagree with his financial judg-
ment and disturb his investments unless
they happened to 10 IN a chaotic condl-
ton. But the tradition survives and con-
tracts are made and unmade regularly
on these occasions in anticipation OF
liquidation which may not come at all
and, II It does. perhaps only year or
so later,

Whatever the immediate effect OF a de-
cision In the advanced freight case such
as is now anticipated. II is obvious that
any advance at all should be construed
as bullish in the long run. At any rate
tho railroad people themselves would re-
gard even the allowance OF very small
increase as an important victory. The
Interstate Commerce Commission. II IL
grants anything at all. will have done
something never done before The prin-
ciple OF granting advances when justified
Will have been established. A line will

EARRING ALSO OPTIMISTIC

James J. I'm. VINO came to town yes-
terday on his way to the st. Johns
River for his annual fishing vacation. said
that the reason for the declining earn
inss OF the railroads was that the bust
ness simply wasn't In the country.
He said. however. that although the
Great Northern gross earnings In the last
few months have been considerably I'M
der those Of . year ago. they are now
picking up. For June he estimated that
the gross would probably be only $780,
600 less than last June, whereas In May
and April the decreases were more than
100000 each month. While gross earn
inss have been decreasing, ne said, en-
penditures have not decreased because Of
tho large amount Of upkeep work.

Wheat was under pressure again yes
