Up to noon to day's stock innrkct was very tmno and nltogether a colorless affair. Conflict ing rcporta concerning the Supreme Court decision In the stock dividend cnie produced no end of ronfuslon with wild ftud violent fluctuations extending over n range from 2 to 10 points. The market hnd hecu drifting along laxity after considerable irregularity I during the morning, when one of the i Mnanclal News Ilurcaus published a flonh report stating Uiat the Supreme Court ruled that stock dividends are income, therefore taxable. This un- p'eaiant bit of news practically swept Wall street off Its feet nnd was followed , by a flood of selling orders which ( swamped the market and caused prices to break violently In all directions, the breaks being particularly severe in those rnrticular stocks, notably Crucible .steel, in which action on proposed stock dividend distributions had been delayed i.iitu tno supreme uourt bad given Its verdict. When the market nppeared to be on the verge of running into complete de moralization, nn entirely different inter pretation of the decision was given by the Associated Press, which stated that tlii court nnd decided that stock divi of the Associated Press report prices In all directions, wero elevated as rapidly an they had been forced down only a few minutes before. There wn little short of a stampede on the part of the short interests when the market reversed its self, and between noon and 1 o'clock prices were bid up vigorously all along the line. The week began with further reac tions from recent tilgh levels, General Motors at nn advance of 0 points, prov ing the noteworthy exception. Among industrials, oils and rails, declined ex tended from large fractions to UVi points. Crucible and llepuhlle Steels, Mexican Petroleum, ltoyal Dutch, Can adian Pacific and Itock Island rcilected the most pressure. The largo decrcaso In actual reserves reported by the Clearing House last Saturday and another setback In for clgu exchange probably contributed to the early reversal. General Motors continued to over shadow all other stocks during the dull forenoon, Increasing its gaiu to It" pints at 274. Associated shares were irregulnr, although the rubber group strengthened with equipments nnd minor steels. Pressure iinon hlffh-nrlcr-d nils relaxed for a time, but was renewed Inter to dends were uot incomes uud taxing of .Mexican nn;i Pan.

' Shippers through the Port of Philadelphia are entitled to rates equal to those in force at other Atlantic ports. Are they getting them? Apparently not, judging from infor mation sent us by some of our cus tomers. In some cases the same line has quoted rates from Philadelphia nearly double those quoted from New York through the same port. We have the right to demand that steamship companies enjoying the privileges of our port shall not handi cap our business in this manner. What Philadelphia's future will be depends on what we do for Philadel phia today. Build the foundations right and the future success is assured. The Pennsylvania Railroad has gone on record. Now what have the steamship -companies to say?
