Palace and provided, besides, a Christmas
tree for tho children. The Volunteers
of America and other charitable organi
zations' dispensed quite' as bountiful a
upply of food and cheer.
' On the Kast Side the same crowds
which attended the funeral of "Little
Tim" Sullivan, crowded the Tammany
headquarters on the Bowery today, to
find that "Little Tim's'' annual Christ
mas dinner had been provided this year
' by his big 'cousin. State Senator Timothy
Pnlllvan. Thousands of East Siders ate
fhelr fill and departed with free- pipes
nd tobacco and tickets for new .shoes.
It had been "Little Tim's" last request
that this Christmas charity be kept up
by the Sullivan family.
Many visitors Were in the city to off
set the tens of thousands who journeyed
to old homes In the country for the holi
days. Among the jolliest ' of the city's
iruests were 1000 sailors from the Atlan
tic battleship fleet, which is anchored
in the' Hudson close to Riverside ' Drive.
The 'Government provided the men' with
bountiful -dinners.
Whipped by a 48-mlle gale from the
. northeast, a real Christmas storm
( swept - through Greater New York
' tonight, covering the streets 1 and
houses to a depth of more than five
inches with snow. Telephone and tele
l raph service was seriously interrupted

STOCK MARKET LISTLESS

NEW YORK, Dec. 5. Speculation
in stocks was dull and listless this

pecially as many, of them save place

relaxation in i money, after " the turn

known requirements, including larger
stock and bond .subscription payments
in January. maturities of foreign
loans to American" borrowers, and the
possible necessity, of gold exports, to
meet them. Various dividend increas

rExecutive Awaits Declsioti From Su
preme Courj; on Sherman Law as
Applied to ' Standard and
Will Not Be Hurried.
OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Dec 23. President Taft. accord
ing to public men who have talked with
thlmon the subject. Is inmlined to await
the decision of the United states su
preme Court In the StandarVi Oil cases
before pressing other prosecutions ni
der the Sherman antitrust law. On the
other hand, pressure Is "being brought
to bear on th"e President to" pensuade
him to begin wholesale prosecution of
the big trusts that a;e commonly
reputed M.O be operating in restraint of
trade in a manner similar to the Stand
ard Oil Company. Thus far this pres
sure" has had no effect upon the Presi
dent and there is nt indication that -he
will yields : - ' -
In ' case prosecution of the trusts is
permitted to drag, pending a decision
by the highest court in "tJae Standard
Oil eases. the President is likely tp
find himself embai-rassed by utterances
that may be made, on the floor of Sen
ate ' and House-during' the" not distant
days of the new session of Congress.
TheTe are among the' insurgents many
men who believe the Administration
should announce its pifrpose of igidly
enforcing the Sherman law, and should
follsnv this announcement with action
similar to-that taken in the OIL trust
cases. ' ' ' ' ' -- - ' .
Insurgents Want Prosecution. -
The insurgents, or the more radical
of them, believe that the decision of
Judge-Sanborn' tn the Oil-cases, taken
in connection with the decision of the
United' State Supreme Court ' in the
Northern Securities' case.-- amply' sus
tains the constitutionality of the Sher
rrian law. insofar as- It undertakes to
prevent - combinations in restraint of
trade, and it Is ther opinion that the
Administration would not only-be jus
tified, but. cannot -conscientiously "avoid
instituting similar' - suits '- against th
steel trust, the sugar trust, the tobacco
trust, 'and 'a score or more' other big cor
porations that ' are operating - on-- lines
similar to the Standard Oil -Company.
- There ls-thls difference between? the
President ' and ' the - insurgents r : the
President assumes there Is a possibility
the Supreme Cdurt may not sustain the
decision Of " the "Circuit- Court - in the
Standard Oil cases; -- the insurgents
maintain' that the Supreme -Court, on
essential points, must sustain the lower
court 'or else reverse its own decision
In -the Northern Securities case. " They
admit there is ijossibllity of difference
on minor details between the two-courts
so far as th Standard Oil decision is
concerned but on the main issues they
believe - there is no room -for "doubt as
to the" nature f decision to be handed
down. '; - - r r - -
Aetlon Good for Party.
Believing as they do, they reg-ard it
as a waste of time for the Administra
tion to postpone enforcement -of 'the
Sherjman .law while the Supreme' Court
has under consideration the "Standard
Oil cases; At best the Standard Oil
.cases cannot be decided by that court
inside of a year, and in the meantime
comes a congressional election. ' If the
Administration, taking " something on.
faith, institutes suits against the Steel
trust. Sugar, trust and other corpora
tions of like nature, and convinces the
public that ' it Intends to enforce the
Sherman law to its last letter, the In
surgents believe much good will' ac
crue to the. party, and" that this same
benefit tvill largely gt to the opposi
tion party if the Administration falls
to act. ' --. '
- At any rate, those who are becoming
impatient are threatening to bring- this
question squarely before the people; so
they can have an opportunity of sound
ing public sentiment and determining
whether or'not the people wan imme
diate action. 'Such an agitation, if It
results in arousing sentiment unfriend
ly to the President, may have Its ef
fect in the next eampafn. -
PATTEN FIGHTS FOR CORN
1 Continued From First -Page.)
31 conservative estimates of Mr. Pat
ten's sales are' from 5.000.000 to 7 0u0.
000 bushels. On this he lost on an
average s of .about 5 cents a- bushel.
Part of " this"' is-an .actual cash ' loss.
Th.e rest of -his" deals, by mutual consent,-'
have' bee'n " transferred over to
the May delivery. - T- .
: There win be no trouble- about the
December delivery. The farmers ' who
wanted "'Christmas money" got1 it up
on demand. -;" Holders who wish to close
out- 'before-. January ! will find- the
Pattens, ready with the corn to set
tle -with them.- . .
Buying Cannot Stop.
To deliver this May corn, however,
Mr. Patten must, have at hand every
bushel that he sold "short" before the
last day for dellvery; arrives, and-rri
getting this corn together he "has to
figure on a' certain amount of delay
between the farmers' -cribs- and the
elevators, due to bad . roads, bad
weather' and other causes.
That means that air. Patten '. must
continue buying corn now "while corn
is going up, for. if he waits for prices
to go down a situation may arise
which will make It impossible for him
to get hold of corn .at' any prlce.
AlSothere is the danger that corn
may go to $1. as the bulls confidently
assert. '
