six pounds, caught under the iron
bridge at the Center last Sunday by

is European brown square. tall
trout, planted in the state ten years

went out ten years ago. Evidently

FEARED CORNER IN
GENERAL MOTORS
Stock Exchange Committees Rul-
ing Starts Scramble for
Shares.

Prompt and drastic action by the
committee on securities OF the New ork
Stock Exchange yesterday morning
checked for a moment and then ended
condition in the General Motors Cor
poration shares which, the committee
believed, pointed TO q corner in the old
stock of that company. While the heav-
lily burdened shorts were stampeding to
obtain stock to make deliveries against
their sales the committee was hurrlcdly
called together and after a very brief
session issued ruling which put an end
to the scramble by making the recently
issued new stock exchangeable for the
old in the deliveries against contracts.
The effect of that ruling was TO make
available a large amount OF General
Motors new stock to the hard pressed
shorts, who were unable under the rul-
ing TO purchase the new stock and de-
liver il against their commitments in the
old shares.
''l'he committee on securities, the rul-
ing said, rules that on and after March
%. 1920, ten shares of General Motors
temporary certificates of no par value
shall be delivery for one share Of Cen
eral Motors common stock of 500 par
value. II released a food of stock for
purchase by the shorts, and IN remark
ably short time the old stock, which had
climbed to the dizzy heights OF S4O9
share, fell some forty-six points.
Traders were discussing all day yester-
day the spectacular events in General
Motors and many a reference was made
To the panic of 1901, brought about by
the famous corner IN Northern Pacific.
The possibility of repetition OF the
happenings of that day had the Stock
Exchange allowed the potential corner
to go any further were freely discussed.
On the other hand there was consider
able criticism of the exchange because
the ruling had not been made at the
time that the new stock was listed. Had
such action been taken at that time, 1t
was argued, the movements OF yesterday
would not have taken place. In answer
to this, however, 1t was declared by ex-
change members that the emergency
could not have been foreseen st that time.
