PAPER BOARD NOW
Association on Trial for Sher
man Act Violations.
The Fap»r Board Association appeared
In court before Judge Hough. In the United
Matt* Circuit Court yesterday, to answer
for it* alleged fins in combining to poo
that the prices and output of paper hoard
were kept Just -where the members of Hi*
association wanted them kept. Thirty-nine
corporations, with plants in N«w York.
New Jersey. Indiana. Michigan. Massachu
setts. Illinois. Connecticut. Delaware. Waal
Virrinf*. Ohio. Pennsylvania. Virginia, and
fifty-four of th*» officials of tho corporations
are named in the indictment for violations
cf the Sherman anti-trust law.
Since the association was organized, on
September 1. 1 <*'->. about fifty more manu
facturers of the paper board have been
taken Into the association, but only about
forty of the corporate or individual de
fendants put In an appearance yesterday
when they were called to plead.
These vere represented by Janus M.
Beck. Edward M. Shepard. Henry W'lln.an
md John C. Clarke, who put in tentative
pleas of not gruilty and «era allowed three
weeks' rim- in which to amend or change.
the plea. The defendants who were repre
sented in court were released on their own
recognizance, nod bench warrants wore
Issued lor the rest.
The uncovering of the alleged monopoly
came with the return of John H. Parks
from Europe a couple of months ago.
Parks was president of the Fibre and
Manila Paper Association, the so-called
wrapping paper trust, and was prominent
in the formation of the Paper Board Asso
ciation. In the former association, which
was indicted for violation of the anti-trust
laws in 19.TS. there v ere some twenty-two
paper making companies which pleaded
guilty and were fined $2,000 each. Parks
stayed In Europe a good many months,
but finally returned and was fined $4,000.
On his return he was brought before the
Erand jury, together with his books and
paper?, which revealed a nicely working
scheme to control the paper board industry
of the country, Hie appearance as a wit
ness before the grand jury gives him
immunity in the present prosecution. Ac
cording to the indictment, the prices of
paper and box board and the regulation of
the output were fixed at each quarterly
mctlnjr. As a result of tho combination
competition lias been eliminated and the
prices have been kept up to a high figure,
about V . r.vi /vv» being annually exacted from
consumers over and above what they ought
to pay.
One of the defendants named is Villiam
D. Barnes, of the W. D. Barnes f Paper
Company. Brainard. Rensselaer county,
who ■■as a member of the State Senate
from 1302 to 190 S.
BROKERS' BYLAWS AMENDED.
Consolidated Exchange Alters Rule
Governing Large Bids.
Th»» board of governors of the Consoli
dated Stock Exchange has amended the by
laws of th* Institution by adding a para
pranh to the effect that all bids or offers
in lots exceeding oh* hundred shares must
be filled by accepting any part of such bid
or offer in hundred share lots. The change.
It was explained, was made for the purpose
of preventing any attempt at matching or
ders or manipulating the market by bidding
for. or offering, larce lota of stocks upon
th». floor of the Consolidated Stock Ex
change.
The amendment Is the first step made by
the exchange in the direction of rutting
Into effect some of the recommendations
Made by the Wall Street investigating com
mittee appointed by Governor Hughes, one
of which was that the stock exchanges
slionid insUt that all trading he done on
the basis of a reasonably small unit, as
the practice of allowing bids and offers
for large amounts, all or none, assisted
in the manipulation In prices.
The committee gave as an illustration
of the possibilities of such manipulation
liiat a customer might *end an order to
sell W< shares of a certain stock at par,
and that id. broker might offer to buy
1.0/0 shares, all or none, at 101, and yet
ri transaction, take place, and suggested
as a remedy that the bidder in such a
case should be required to take all the
Fhares offered at the lower price before
bidding for a larger lot at a higher price.

Agricultural Exports in Last
Decade Nine Billion Dollars.
"Washington. .Tan. 7. — Nine billion dollars'
worth of agricultural products were ex
ported from the United States In the last
ten years, according to the Bureau of Sta
tistics. Agricultural products exported In
the fiscal year 1909 amounted to $900,
000.000.
While th« agricultural group shows a
gain of over $100,000,000 in the last decade,
decreased exportation is shown in staple
farm products used for food, such as broad
stuffs, meats, live cattle, etc. This loss is
more than offset by the great increase In
exports of cotton and certain comparatively
new Industries whose chief development has
occurred In the last few years.
Cotton, the largest it^m in the agricult
ural group, shows a total exportation dur
ing the decade of $3,651,000,000. Bread
stuffs, second on the list, showed a marked
decline. Meat and dairy products consti
tute the third largest class in the group of
farm products exported. Exports In this
class have on the whole been better main
tained in the decade than has been the. case
of cotton or breadstuffs. The general
group, animals, shows a decrease from $30,
000,000 In iS99 to $23,000,000 in 1309. Cat
tle were the chief factor •in jLhis decline.
In the last fiscal year Europe took $25,
000.000 worth of American tobacco out of
a total export of $31,000,000. Europe Is
also the largest foreign market for Ameri
can cotton, taking nine-tenths of the ex
ports.
THE HIGH COST OP LIVING.
Some Prices in Chicago — Hogs Still

were made late in the day at $9 05. Except
for a short period in ISS2. when the price
reached $9 35 a hundredweight, the $9 hog
has not been seen her© since the Civil War.
Continued intense ' cold, impeding trans
portation, and an apparent hesitation of
producers to market their hogs are the
primal causes of the advance In prices,
which involves all pork products.
Toledo. Jan. 7.— At the. top of the market
here to-day hogs sold at $?. the highest
price here since th«i organization of the
Toledo stock yards. Ail grades advanced.

CONDITION OF TRADE.
Brad street's «a;
The year opens with a perceptible lull in
trade, though with optimism as the under
lying « lenient in all lines. Severe cold
weather and heavy snow, sleet or rain
storms have checked transportation and
retarded country trnd<\ though more* or
less immediate benefit to retail trade in
< iti^s has accrued from the stimulus given
to demand for seasonable goods by weather
conditions and the beginning of clearance
sales of winter goods. Wholesale lines
have been generally quiet, owing to the
fact that, salesmen as yet are not fully
in their fields of activity. Jobbing reorders
,-ire checked for the same leasons. Col
lections are rather slower and classed gen
erally as only fair. due. no doubt, to inter
ruptions as to the movements of mails and
of farm products to market. WhilA sea
sonable quiet i.- noted in so many lines of
trad* and outdoor operations, such as
building, and railway movement if» Inter
rupted, most lines of trade return highly
encouraging reports as to the outlook. Sea
sonable weather promises, to affoid a full
outlet for winter wearing apparel in final
distributers' hand?, and advices as to
spring orders booked and row beginning
to be filled by shipment are very good.
It is true that th:» continuous advances 'In
prices of cotton goods necessitated by the
higher price of the raw material are not
being accepted In all lines, and somewhat
f-imilar report* come from various lines of
dress goods dealers, while a general trade
conference on shoo prices is set down for
next week at Boston.
Dun's Review says:
.Not In a. half decade has a year opened
with the business outlook so generally 8U-
BpiefouH as the year 1310. In January. 1907,
I '■•■ was a tremendous volume of trans
act ions, hut already the clouds of impend
ing disaster could be seen on the horizon:
in January, 1!V)8, the crash had arrived
and the business world wan counting th*
heavy losses; In January, 1909, confidence*
had been in putt repaired, but the progress
toward recovery was very Flow, but in
January, 1910. the volume of transactions
Is as large as in 1907. with confidence H'.i
preme, and no impending disasters casting
tl:eir shadows before. Some of the perplex
ing Issues which contributed to th* crisis
of I^7 still leniain unsolved, while the
question of high prices has become more
acute; but i' would seem ax If business
. onAdence were not going to permit those
tilings to Interfere with the further prog
ress of industry and commerce. The opti
mism which usually prevails at this season
is tin:- time apparently wnll supported by
the farts of the economic situation. In the
great Iron aid steel trade, which is so
!'a.-]<\ this spirit of optimism is particular
.i. conspicuous. Conditions are not so pro
nouncedly strong In some other depart
ments, but with favorable agricultural con
ditions and with no event, political or
otherwise, to impair the confidence of busi
ness men in the credit structure, there
twins to be no reason to doubt a good
year. It is « favorable omen that the rltst
week witnesses a decline in the Hank of
England rale of discount to 4 per cent,
which is a sißit of more stable conditions
: abroad, and that the volume of bank «>x
changea in the United States shows heavy
Increases; 12.8 per cent over 1903 and «>.g
pr^r cent over IMC outside of New York
and '/7.2 per ■ i lit over 1900 and 6 per cent
Over 19M In New York. There is a slight
falling off In i;.ilroa-1 esmings, but this is
due to weather conditions and the North
■ western railroad strike. Foreign commerce
I reports show the B&me heavy Import' move

' ports Hi New York (luring the latest week

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago. Jan. 7.— Altogether, the predomi
nating sentiment of the day was bearish.
The range, in prices in wheat was *»$ to
Hie May showing the greatest spread,
from $113% to $1 I.V Th« nearby option
closed weak at $1 13% to $1 IST*, *iC lower
than yesterday's final. Th© more distant
futures closed V±c lower than yesterday.
Corn continuea to he th* spectacular feat
ure, and the enormous trade of yesterday
was duplicated, a new high point being
established in May. Commission and spec
ulative trade were both In excess of usual
conditions, and millions of bushels thrown
into the pit on realising -alps were prompt
ly assimilated. Heavy feeding and crippled
rail service kept the market strong:, in
spite of forecasts of milder temperatures
and a dull cash demand. Th« new high
point for May was <K)Ue. The more distant
future reached yesterday's high level of
6?c. All the months slightly receded at tli«
close. Final figures for'Xlay were 6S?ic ♦.•>
6S"ic, %■• to *.^c higher than yesterday. July
was a shade higher and September un
chHneed from yesterday.
Trade was large In oats, but th* rang*
was comparatively narrow, varying from
a»c to %>' The market eased off toward
the close, and final figures left May ' '' to
i 4i 4 higher than yesterday's Hop*, at 4S v »c.
with July i^c lower and September *' a c
higher than yesterday.
H#aviW provision *>al*s than «m expect
ed took the Ringer out of hog product
prices, which from the phenomenally high
record t*l to-day by live hogs were ex
pected to ?oar. At the close prices ranged
from 9as lower to 10c higher than yester
day. January lard b*ingr the only commod
