Hearings upon the new Senate

George E. Hamilton, president of
the Capital Traction Company, ;, and
William F. Ham, president of the
Warrington Railway and Electric

In the direction Of q merger. In
their efforts to block the proposed

Inasmuch a. the traction execu-
dives can take no step without gain
ing the approval of a majority Of
the stockholders It Is not believed
that this eleventh-hour effort to stop

Committee declare that the traction

Government influence, and that the

After the traction representati tives
are heard Monday q large number of

Flurried trade in wheat resulted
from a belief on the part of many
traders that the principal bulls in the
market had abandoned the fight for
hlgher prices so far as this month
was concerned. The basis for such
course was evidence that the lead

buying support for prices came from
the operations of the leading shorts.
the concerns which have been ac-
lively opposing ef late the efforts for

opinion that the bull campaign in
May wheat had reached an end was
correct or otherwise, big receipts
which were seemingly assured for the
remainder OF the month formed a
severe handicap against the bulls to-
day from the outset. Deliveries on
May contracts this morning amount
ed to $4,000 bushels and the fresh
receipts here were 365 carloads. Be-
sides, the Liverpool market was un-
responsive to yesterdays sharp ad-
vance here, domestic millers appeared
to be holding back from purchasing.

was in sight. Under such circum-
stances, rallies in price grew feeble,
and at the last the market made a
swift downward plunge, losing .

Stock Market
IRepublican A. p. Leased wlre]


NEW YORK, May 24.-The stock
markets initial response today to the
lower freight rates ordered by the
interstate commerce commission took
the form of a general though mod
crate advance in junior transporta-
tions, while representative issues Of
that class were inclined to react.
On the whole, railroad and finan-
cial interests were relieved at the
long deferred action of the commits
sion and the general reduction, aver
aging about 10 per cent, was within
popular expectations.
The strength of some Of the sec
ondary rails, notably Chicago & AL
ton common and preferred, Wabash
common and preferred A, and Lake
Erie & Western was due mainly to
persistent reports that these systems
are likely to figure in merger or traf-
fic agreements.
Proof that the railroad situation is
Frightening in its broader aspects
was furnished by the reservation of
dividends on the common stock of the
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & st.
Louis railway, controlled by New
York Central interests. Other divi-
dends of the stock list followed their
