In the present temper of the stock market projects to issue new bonds have a decidedly bearish influence. Even the announcement that so solid institution as the Pennsylvania Raflroad contemplated tung $10,000,- 000 or $15,000,000 of new equipment trust notes sent a nervous tremor down the speculative spine. The suggestion that the United States Steel Corpdracion will soon issue some new bonds has also caused a good deal of deprecatory Owing to the unsatis- factorv condition of the money situa- tion, the bond market continues very dull, and the stock market, although more active, comnues wobbly. ‘Tne Reading raiders succeeded to-day in forcing tat stock down to 125 3-4, which is the lowest figure at which Fourteen men were arraigned in -the | West Side Court to-day ged with expectorating in violation of section No, 178 of the Sanitary Code. Only three | of the fourteen were fined, and they | were taxed S1 each. | Among the fourteen was Charles H. | Moore, a broker of Louisville, Ky. He | ‘was arrested in the lobby of the Belasco ‘Theatre when he bit the end off a cigar and blew it from him. He was taken to the West Forty-seventh street sta- tion, whete the sergeant demanded $00 ball, refusing $80) in cash which the} KKentuckian offered. He was finally bailed out by Francis H. Wiggins, man- ager of the Imperial Hotel. ‘Magistrate Waltman said it was an} outrage to hold a man in $000 bail on} such a charge when violators of the futomobile soced limit aw were re- @uired to put up only $20), Mr. Moore! twas promptly disonarzed. Then Mr ‘Wiesins sought to get back the 3500 he hud put up as bail, [t had been turnea over to Clerk McCabe, of the court, O'Brien Not Enough. “Kindly hand me my roll," sald Wig- abe, ong foe cot replied the clerk. “I 3 you, Gon tell if 1 call up Fire Commissioner O'Brien’ on the telephone and he recog- fises my volce will you give me the Rigney?” asked Wiggins. : “Nix,” responded the clerk, “the money goes back to the lice station and “you will have..9 go toere and get it. Witt Young, an actor, who was arrested for expectorating In the lovoy Of the Colonial Theatre, was fined $i, Which he pald without comment. Jolin Connor, a special officer, who was ar- at the Circle Theatre, also paid 100-cent fine sans noise. ‘But Willis Clark, an employee of the Butterick Publishing Company, talked for fifteen minutes before he gave up. This natty young man was arrested to- Br at One Hundred and Four.h street Columbus avenue by a member of the “Expectoration Squad.” “Your Honor,” sald Mr, Clark. ‘the policemen ought to be able to distin- hh when a gentleman expectorates or a loafer spits. I protes:, against being fined in this manner.” The Court informed the young man that he could pay his fine under protest. He demanded a receint for his dollar from the clerk, but he didn't eet it. He was furious then and said he would take the case up to the Court of Appeals, Magistrate Whitman did not dine any of the prisoners who had been arrested in theatre lobbies which were not pro- vided with cuspidors. H said that the Hanitary Code enjoined the placing of these receptacles in such places and ‘when they did not have them i was no misdemeanor to spit on the floot Reading has sold since its downward movement, The bear operators made as free use as possible of the Washington gossip that President Roosevelt intends bo have an investigation of the com- hination of coal-carrying railroads. In- asmuch as the Reading system handles about one-tlird of the anthracite coal traffic, and President George F. Bacr, of the Reading, is also Chairman of the coal presidents, it is quite probable that Reading will have to bear the brunt of any stock market attack on the coal railroad shares. The bargain hunters, who were quite busy in Wall street again to-day, picked up considerable Reading stock around 126. ‘A report that negotiations are pending for a steel combination in opposition to the United ‘States Steel Crporation at- tracts serious attention. The parties to ta!s new combination, it 1s alleged, are the Lackwwanna Stee! Company, Charnes M.
