This commission was only part of the

investigation which il was to conduct
would take time. In order that mining
operations might be resumed as speedily
as possible, the President consulted with
Senator Quay, who was all powerful in
Pennsylvania politics, and was assured
by him that whenever the President de
sired him TO do so he would have the
governor of the State notify tho President
that he could not keep order in the coal
region and needed Federal interference
''rhe President then informed Major
General John NJ. Schofield that In case of
Federal interference he wished TO send
hIm to the coal regions with the regular
army troops with Instructions to act as
receiver of the mines, take full charge,
put down all violence, and disregard any
orders from the operators. He asked the
general. It, in case the operators went TO

The trend Of the hog market was pecu-

the Wednesday market on bidding by
representatives of eastern shippers, the
market closed with prices 10 to % cents

Eastern shippers, however. bought

Light hogs opened with a $i6.35 top,
while an extra fancy load of lights sold
outside the market at an extreme top OF
$1,000, which was the top Of the Tuesday
market At the opening, the bulk of the
good lights brought S16@16.25, but the
close of the market saw them bringing
S15.S5@16.
Roughs were steady with the Wednes-
day market at $3.50 and down, while
best light pigs brought $3.50, with
few at $15.75.
Receipts for the day approximated 1900

Prices were generally steady, with the
exception of the best grades of cows and

good Gamers and cutters, which brought
slightly better prices on better demand

1t is daily becoming more apparent that
we are now in the midst Of q railroad
rather than an industrial market.
In the rails the demand has been con-
slant; they have been absorbed, evident
" by interests that are disposed TO hold
for substantial enhancement rather than
for a moderate or quick turn of the mar
ket
AS we view the position OF these shares,
the buying that is now daily in evidence
is logical and fully justified.
The companies are better protected by
law today than they have been at any
time and while this protection limits them
in their earnings, the limit is sufficiently
liberal to make the shares desirable as an
investment and will prove more attrac-
tive when we have passed through the
present money stringency and return to
more normal interest rates
In the industrial list there is much con-
fusion due to the unsatisfactory condition
of trade in a number of lines, to which
has recently been added the motor COM
7antes, who are confronted by the neces-
sity for competition.
Production has been increased to a
point where for the present at least the
demand is exceeded.
The leading trade review pictures steel
conditions as favorable and the shares
have recently given a good account of
themselves.
TIE irregularity may be looked for
with discrimination in the selection of
stocks, but on bulges it is still advisable
TO sell some long stocks.
