FINANCE
READING MOST ACTIVE OF
LEADERS INEARLY TRADING
Weakness of the Stock Attributed to
Fact That Interstate Commerce Com
mission Has Affairs of the Anthra
cite Roads Under Review
New Vork, March 18.—Wall Street
—The feature of to-day's early market
was a one point decline in Reading, de
spite tho maintenance of the regular
dividend. The stock was the most ac
tive of the leaders in the initial trading
and offerings suggested short selling
rather than liquidation. Other promi
nent issues were affected in lesser de
gree, the Pacifies ami United State*
I steel falling under yesterday's close.
! Coppers. American smelting and motor
I shares and .Mexican petroleum were
j fractionally higher.
Reading continued to be the over-
I shadowing feature of the morning ses
j sion, supplying over 30 per cent, of the
I first hour's business and declining to
142% or 1% points. Jhc fact that the
Interstate Commerce Commission now
I has the affairs of the anthracite roads
under review was . the chief argument
advanced in connection with Reading's
j weakness. Lehigh Valley, however,
j was dull and scarcely affected. Other
j leaders held within ftwv range of their
; opening prices, while coppers made sub
j stantial gains. Pressed steel scored a
j new high price at 58' 1 4, 'but U. S. steel
I was under pressure. Minor bond issues
1 were weak.

SHIP GOODS Bfl TRANSPORTS
Will Use U. S. Army Vessels to Carry
Commodities From Philippines
to America
Washington, March 18.—Because of
the lack of shipping facilities betweeil
the Philippine Islands and the United
States, army transports will be utilized
for carrying goods from the islands
which could not be transported in any
other way. Secretary Harrison to-day
called President Wilson's attention to<
the report from Governor General Har
rison of the "unfortunate condition"
in the Philippines because of lack of
ships for exports to the United States.
At first it was suggested that naval
colliers returning from tho islands be
used but Secretary Daniels was ad
vited, that was not authorized by law.
Secretary Garrison found, howover,
that there has been no objection to us
ing returning army transports provided
their freight is first made over to the
island government.
The quartermaster general of the
army has found that about 3,000 tons
space will be available on each ship.
Secretary Garrison will instruct Gover
nor General Harrison to invite pro
posals from shipping companies to car
ry all exports offered to the govern
ment transports so that nothing will be
carHed by the government which cquld
be handled by private shipping. Presi
dent Wilson has approved Secretary
Garrison's plan and it will shortly be
put in effect.

Prior Engagement Kept Him From
Pennsylvania Launching
WellKboro, Pa. ? March 18. —State
Treasurer Young, in explaining his ab
sence from the launching of £he battle
ship Pennsylvania, yesterday said at
hia home here:
"The statement to the effect that I
was not invited by Governor Brum
baugh to attend' the launching of tho

true. As a matter of fact, I did re
ceive a cordial invitation to attend the
ceremonies from Governor Brumbaugh
and regretted deeply that prior business
engagements of importance prevented
my attendance."
