STOCKS PRICES UP
CLOSE OF MARKET FIRM AND
NEAR BEST OF DAY.
BIG DECLINES REDUCED
AND SOME COAL CARRIERS WERE.
HIGHER THAN WEEK AGO.

Some Evidences of Renewed Liquid
alton in Spots at Times, But whole
Market Became Very Strong in
Late Trading-NOrthern Securities
Touched New High Record in Curb
Trading-Bank Statement Con-
formed to Calculations in the Cash
Item.
New York, Dec. 9.-Further progress
was made in to-day's two hours ses-
sion towards restoring the impairment
of values in the stock market, caused
by the weeks heavy liquidation. In
the case Of a few of the coal carriers,
both in the anthracite and the soft
coal groups, to-days closing prices are
slightly higher than those at the clos
ing last Saturday. The largest declines
have been very much reduced.
Reading was a prominent figure In
to-day's trading and very encouraging
reports of coal traffic helped stocks of
all railroads with a large percentage of
that class of freight. There was some
evidence of renewed liquidation in
some spots at times. but the whole
market became very strong in the late
trading and closed firm near the best.
Covering of shorts.
Covering of short contracts by a re-
treating bear party apparently played
a considerable part in the rise and the
demand was rather urgent at some
points, notably in Amalgamated Cop
per. Nothern Securities touched new
high record on the curb and the settle
ment rumors regarding that corpora
ton renewed their potent effect on
speculative sentiment.
The bank statement conformed to
calculations in the cash item and the
stock market liquidation was reflected
in the loan contraction of $S,513, 500, re-
sulting in an addition to the surplus
reserve of 1926, 125. Foreign exchange
turned firm and Berlin's renewed de-
mand on London for gold attracted at
tention. Total sales of bonds, par

HOW ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS
MADE A MILLION.
MIR. Vanderbilt Tells An Interesting
story of Fabulous Profits.

story of Fabulous Profits.
A novel booklet is creating a sensa-
ton in financial circles here, and Wall
street is deeply interested in it, parti-
cularly as it is being circulated by w.
G. Vanderbilt. He tells how he made
a million dollars by investing a thou
sand, and the story is intensely inter-
esting.
Mr.. Vanderbilt was interviewed at
his offices in No. 100 William street.
New York, and stated he was pleased
that his booklet had been so we'll re-
ceived. He said: Il met so many peo-
pie who were cropping in the dark about
financial matters / decided to publish
some of the things 1 have learned about
business, and send it out as a tribute
to my personal friends. But, dear me,
my friends told everybody about it.,
and my mail is flooded with requests
for the booklet. Therefore, have de-
cided that / can do nothing better for
my fellowman than to send a copy Of
it to any one who will write to me
at No. 100 William street."
do you intend to distribute these
free?" dsIsIkE
Certainly" he responded, "because
l know no one will be interested in the
matter except those who have saved
enough money and want to know how
to make their savings earn more than
simple interest, hence 1 will be doing
the best service for those who need it
most, and that is the real essence OF
true philanthropy. 1 would like to
have applicants for this book write me
fully and ! will be pleased to send any
one a copy"
At least a score of bankers and finan-
cial men, who were interviewed, sub
sequently. all agreed that Mr. Wander
bits book should be in everybody's
hands who desired to improve their
condition financially.

JURORS
WEPT
While Witness i'm the Jett Case
Confessed.
A. O. Adams Said He Swore Falsely
to Save Jett Because He Was
Afraid.
NAMES OFFICIALS OF JACKSON

Cynthians, KY, Feb. 24.-There
was a sensation in the court house
here yesterday afternoon when A. O.
Adams pleaded guilty to perjury and
was given the minimum sentence of
one year
Adams was one Of the principal
witnesses for the defense at the trial
here last September of Curtis Jet
and Thomas White, cow cted Of kill
ing J. B. Maroum and James Cock
rill at Jackson, Ky. Adams was al
lowed to address the jury. While
speaking he broke down several times.
In making his confession in the open
court room. he said he had perjured
himself on account of the fear of being
killed in Breathitt county afterward, if
he testified to what he knew. He said
that county officers and others had
told him that he must aid Jett in prov
ing an slibi or he and his family would
suffer. He addressed the jury for 10
minutes, reciting the language used
to him by prominent people at Jacks
and the threats that were made before
he testified. County Attorney Web
ster pleaded with the jury for mercy.
Several of the jurors wept while
Adams was talking. The Jury prompt
ly returned q verdict with the mini
mum sentence of one year. There
was much agitation about the court
house after the brief trial ON account
Of the names of judges and other
prominent people mentioned by Ad.
ans while pleading guilty.

POLITICS ELIMINATED.

Toxic, Feb. 24-The plan arranged
for the emperor and imperial head
quarters TO move TO Kyoto has been
temporarily abandoned, and it is now
thought better not 70 remove until
after the closing of the special session
of the Diet earl, in April. The inoon-
venienoe OF removing the seat of gov
eminent and converting the Diet at
Kyoto is the reason assigned for the
change in the plan. Small interest is
manifested in the forthcoming cleo
ton. The war overshadows all politi-
cal questions just now. The country is
united politically, and it is expected
that the new Diet will fully support
the government and cordially approve
all measures concerning the war.

IT WAS EASY
THIEF ROBS YOUNG LADY'S
ROOMS OF JEwELRY.

New York, Feb. 24-Jewel cases
owned by the daughters of some of the
wealthiest families in the east have
been desposled by clever burglar who
obtained entrance to a select school
for young ladies at Pelham Manor,
near this city. The robber made off
with property worth more than 50, coo.
The robbery ocourred during the
dinner. No one saw the interloper,
who must have climbed to an upper
story window. He had the house to
himself, and calmly went from room
to room, helping himself to diamond
rings. watches and chains by the
dozens.
When the girls returned there was
a mild panic, and the police were hur-
riedly Summoned, but the thief had
made his eseape.

The Bills Proposed Will Not
Burt Paducah's Measures.
The Covington Man Was Not in the
Conference Held at !
Frankfort.
WHAT HE PROPOSES TO DO

Mayor Yeiser and other city Officials
are not alarmed over the bills intro
duced yesterday at Frankfort by
member from Covington. Covington
did not care to be represented in the
conference held by representatives
from other second class cities recently
and her representative are therefore
free to introduce anything they like
without being accused of breach of
faith
The bills proposed by Representa-
tive Hollen, of Covirgton, are:
One requiring the general council to
make the city depository the highest
bidder
One making it possible to have two
deputy Jailers at a $1,000 salary.
| One authorizing the licensing Of all
business in a city.
One fixing the salary of council
men at So . meeting.
City officials stated today that there
is very little difference between these
bills and the ones presented by Senator
Campbell, of Paducah. The measure
they propose regarding the city deposit
tory is that il shall be placed by the
council, with the presumption that the
council will place it where it will be
of most benefit to the city.
The bill as they, und erstand it, rela-
tive to deputy city jsilers,- is simply
that city may have two IL it wants
them, and if it doesn't. is doesn't
have to have them.
Most every business is already liz
censed hence this cuts no figure. The
s5 meeting for counoilmen is opposed
here. II is deemed best by the MEM
bers Of lOcal boards to allow second
GLASS cities 70 fix the salary Of council
men frois' 90 to So meeting as agreed
ut the conforsnce.
Those ohat desire the maximum So
can then have it. and those who prefer
the minimum, So, can have it, They
object to making it imperative to fix q
ave dollar salary.
