Opposes Rate Increase

Many of the railroads have been ex-
pecting opposition to develop against
the rate increases granted by the In
terstate Commerce Commission, and
now the Public Utilities Commission OF
Illinois comes along as the first to fight
the raise, both in passenger and freight
rates. The Illinois commission has
ruled that cents a mile shall be the
legal passenger fare on steam roads
after September 1, denying an applca-
ton of the roads for SO cents a mile
Refusal to sanction the higher rates is
said to be based on lack of authority
in view of the 2-cent statute in the
state. In denying the application of
the carriers for 40 per cent general
rate advance, and the granting of a
temporary increase of SO 1-3 per cent
the Illinois commission states that this
is the smallest it could grant under
the existing rulings of the Interstate
Commerce Commission and is sufficient
to absorb the Illinois share of the $685.
100000 wage award.

New York Central Financing

Bankers are understood to be dis
cussing plans for taking care Of the
$15,000,000 New York Central per
cent notes, which fall due on Septem-
Der Is. These notes were offered at
99% last fall by a syndicate headed
by j. P. Morgan & Co., the First Ma
tional Bank and the National City
Bank. The proceeds were used to re-
tire a similar amount of per cent
collateral notes which matured Sep
TENDER Is, 1919. Owing to the higher
money rates now prevailing it is under
stood that if the maturing issue is
refunded it will have to be done at a
rate yielding per cent or better.

duction of passenger automobiles and
new motor are progressing, while
manufacture of motor trucks is pro-

Wheat Prices Firm

Prices for delivery of wheat in De-
cember and March remained firm yes
terday, in spite of reports from Rome
that crop conditions in Europe were
excellent and that if conditions re-
manned favorable nations of Europe
would not be such heavy buyers in the
United States this year. The absence
of the British Royal Commission from
the market failed to cause bearish SEN
timent, largely because the cash posi-
ton remained firm, with advances in
prices in the Northwest. Inability to
increase present deliveries is believed
to add strength to the cash market.

Imperial Oil Holdings Intact

In connection with Denver dispatches

yesterday that Imperial Oil interests

being largely in voting trust. c. o.

Scarcity of Acceptances

The dearth of ninety-day acceptances
put out by New York institutions is
striking. Savings banks and other
would-be purchasers find it impossible
to get such bills for investment. The
rate remained at 6A to 6as per cent
ened by bidding UP the rate. The cur
tailed supply probably results from
conservative attitude on the part of
the banks and is phase Of the move
ment toward defation Of credit.

sensational advance of sixty points
to $500 share in Standard Oil of New
York stock on the curb market yester-
day gave rise to reports that within
short time the company will declare
substantial stock dividend. For some
time past there have been rumors that
directors of the company were work
which provided, among other things,
the cutting down of the par value of
the stock from $500 share to $40

Sterling and most of the Continental

Slump in Raw Sugar Market

Offerings of raw sugar here increased
yesterday to such an extent that the
market was almost demoralized, and
Cubas were said to be pressing for sale
at 1871 cents, considerably below the
quotations of June, when prices about
reached the peak. The gradual decline
in raws has had slight effect on re-
fined sugar, and while prices remain
nominal it is believed many sales are
now being made below list quotations.

Dublin.-Easter Sunday, the fourth
anniversary Of the bloody uprising that
laid the foundation for the island-wide
movement for an Independent repub-
ic. ended without the threats Of repe-
tition of the revolt having been carried
out. However, organized incendiarism
throughout Erin began, is the Sim
Feiner's reply to the Governments
Easter display Of force. With the
same cunning, system and secrecy
with which the many raids of police
and military have been carried out dur.
ing the last few months, the rebels-or
group of eXtremists-masked and
armed applied the torch to Govern
ment buildings and offices, especially
tax bureaus in Dublin and other towns.
Police and fire guards were kept busy
throughout the day, though I'm most in
stances they came too late to save i'm
portant official records.
England's military machine has this
island in an iron grip, and, unlike the
ers of the rebel movement realized it
and passed the word in good season
to all brothers of the faith Of freedom
that there was to be no attempt to
shake off the "chains" by force. In
stead, the Sim Feiners used the weap-
ons of incendiarism, and used it with
damaging effect in a number Of quar-
tiers. Slxty-one police barracks were
destroyed and twenty-one revenue
offices raided and their contents burn
ed throughout the island. A man be-
lieved to be Private Lawrence McKen-
