THOUGH DECISION TENDS TO
ROAD SHARES

New York, Dec. 1s.--One thing
proved by today's stock market. on
which the Interstate Commerce Com
missions decision in the Eastern rate
came Unexpectedly. was the entire alb
sence of anything resembling specula-
tive enterprise
Trading OF n speculative sort there
has been, but speculative movement
has yet 10 develop itself. Another
thing which was suggested was that to
some extent, at least, the immediate
effect Of the decision has been partly
discounted in the recovery of prices
which took place from the low Level
reached In the irregular outside trad
ing after the stock Exchange closed
IN July
Expectations have been prevalent
that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would make concessions to the
railways, as IN the nature of the stu
alton there seemed to be nothing else
TO do. The decision Is so entirely
favorable that only the stubborn pes.
s.rqiat can suppose that Its beneficial
Influences have been felt in values OF
adequately measured in business con-
ditions no matter how long post
ponement may be necessary before the
effects OF the decision for good car
be realized.
Wall street today did not have time

when the news Of the finding In the
rate case ame out the share list was
In a weak state. From the outset OF
business there has been scattered
but fairly persistent execution of sell
ing orders under which quotations had

which found their reason or excuse
IN the character of the war dispatches,
showing German gains which were
construed as adverse to financial pros
poets and In the reports of shrunken
railroad earnings. striking dividend
decreases, as in the Louisville and
Nashville reduction, and In the general
disposition OF trade and industry.
Announcement that the rate case
hndings were coming out stopped the
selling instantly and extracts from
the decision started a rally which held
well throughc ut the rest Of the day.
Buying did not follow prices. but
although closing quotations showed
irregular changes the final figures
were we'll above the lowest.
Some Adverse Criticism.
In commenting upon the decision to-
night some adverse comment was
heard because the commission did not
go further in affording railroad relief.
The truth of the matter Is that the
railroads have received very much
what they asked for.
So far as concerns the securities
market and the business situation the
facts are that the most bearishly dis
posed spectators cannot pretend that
the decision will make conditions
worse
/ 1t will encourage investors to keep
their securities and stimulate invest
ment absorption. II will conduce to
banking activities during the winter
/ in the financing of railroad require
ments and to general business i'm
iprovement as the result of placing OF
railroad contracts for equipment and
material.
/ Everything in Wall Street was, OF
course. overshadowed by the outcome
of the rate case, 1t might be noted
though, that the foreign exchan &c
market displayed symptoms OF weak
ness, sterling bills closing at Sa.s7 for
demand, with marks only little ad-
vanced from So. Also the domestic
money market exhibited signs of In
lcreasing relaxation Time money was
