GRILL FOR MGS
OF HIGH FINANCE
NEW VORK. June 11. The big gunr
r>f the "money irusl” investigation were
trained upon Wall street collectively
today for the committee on banking
and' currency of the house of repre
sentatives had called Secretary Ely, of
the stock exchange, and others who
are familiar with tire working of the
I’ig exchange, to tell what they know
about the gentle art of handling the
finances of a great nation.
Tlie stock exchange investigation
was expected to explain how it .is pos
sible for one concern to have bought
and sold during a year many times its
total capitalization. These concrete in
stances of such transactions have been
called to lite attention of the commit
tee covering tile sales of last year:
There were handled on Ihe stock ex
change last year 33,000,000 shares of
United States Steel Corporation, or
seven times the total Ctapitalizjition of
t he corpora t ion.
There were handled 15,000,000 shares
of Union Pacific, or eight times its cap
italization.
There were handled 23,000,000 shares
of Reading, or ten times the total cap
italization of tlie company.
The committee has been privately
told that a majority of the stock of
these three corporations are held by
many stockholders who did not part
with them at all during the year, and
the line of investigation is directed
toward finding, out how it is a liulnan
possibility for sales involving many
tines the total capitalizations to he le
gitimately conducted with only a mi
nority of the real holdings actually in
the market.
