Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 29.-By most observ-
ers no special change in the character OF
the stock market Is looked for in the i'm
mediate future. 1t Is still believed that the
most active interests will postpone aggres
sive operations until more definite informa
tion Is obtainable regarding the crops and
various other important factors in the stu
alton both in this country and in Europe.
1t Ia generally acknowledged, however that
monetary conditions in Europe and in the
United States are steadily improving. 1t is
believed, however. that In order for them
to become as nearly normal as possible
there must be general slackening in bust
ness.
-
On account of the lateness of the season
comparatively little has been said with re-
spect to crop conditions in the northwest.
Officials of several Of the railroads oper-
ating in that territory who have come to
New Yorw within the last two or three
days are Of the opinion that, on the whole,
conditions in the northwest are as favorable
as they could be at this season of the year.
The vast amount of snow which fell last
winter and the ice in the principal rivers
disappeared without causing the generally
expected damage. One who is familiar with
conditions In the northwest says that owing
to the small amount of frost in the ground
when the snow and ice began to melt, the
moisture Is largely taken up and conse-
quently the streams were not unduly swol-
len. He says that in his many years of
experience in the northwest late seeding
has almost invariably resulted in good
crop. He adds that there is little occasion
to be apprehenSive OF there being too much
moisture in that territory.
Apparently not much of a definite charac-
ter will transpire in connection with the
matter Of building additional subways in
Manhattan until the engineers representing
the city raise their estimates of cost mate
rally. A man holding a very prominent
position with the marlborough Rapid Tran
sit Company said today that his company
is anxious to carry out the obligation gen.
orally acknowledged resting to complete
the subway system in this city He said
that in order to bring this about the COM
pany is willing to build the extension at
the actual cost. If necessary, surrendering
its generally acknowledged rights to rea-
sonable profit.
He stated further that the engineers and
other experts who made up the recent esti-
mates for the company are instructed.'i II 1t
seemed necessary. to go below the figures
that in their judgment would represent the
actual cost. He said that in his judgment
the estimates submitted by the company
were too low.
There Is comparatively little discussion of
the probable action of the steel directors
on the common stock dividend 1t seems to
be believed by most interests that no
change will be made.

The STORY oFIGRAHAM FLOUR.

Graham -four is so named from
DR.. Sylvester Graham, who in 1929
first used and strongly recommended
foods made from unbolted -four. The
Graham bread and crackers made in
those days were coarse and unpala-
table and were eaten more as a die
tary obligation than as an enjoyable
food.
But, inaccordance with the theory
of DR.. Graham, foods made from this
-four proved to be very beneficial.
The digestion was strengthened-the
appetite improved-and the course
ness of the -four had a stimulating
effect upon the digestive organs.
The Graham foods, through ex-
pertinent AMI skill, became more and
more palatable until finally the real
Graham Cracker-the tempting food
was produced by the National Bis
cult Company. Its flavor is that of
the sweet, nutty kernel of wheat,
almost a dessert 1T Is so rich and
delicious. Used instead of bread at
any meal, it furnishes antsagreeable
change. For lunch o. late supper it
satisfactorily takes the place Of meats
and heavy food and leaves none of
their ill-effects. AS q cereal at
breakfast, nothing can excel Graham
Crackers and cream.
The National Biscuit Company
Graham Crackers are packed in
moisture and dust-proof boxes, keep
ing in all their oven crispness, fresh
ness and flavor. When you open a
box it is equivalent to taking them
from the oven, and therefore Graham
Crackers should be served from the
original package to be enjoyed at
their best. All grocers keep the
Graham Crackers of the National
Biscuit Company.

MYSTERIOUS DROWNING.

The body of Mrs: Carl B. Gore, p
years old, bride of but few months,
was found al the bottom Of the lake at
the Moundsville, w. VII, camp grounds
yesterday. Considerable mystery sur
rounds the death of woman.
Mrs, Core aud her husband, who is a
CLERK at the State penitentiary, at
Moundsville, had been spending the
summer at the camp grounds, making
their home in a cottage near the lake.
On Sunday night they retired to their
room after a very pleasant evening spent
on the lake.
Mr.. Core states that the last he cav OF
his wife alive was when she was stand
ing in front of the mirror in the room
letting down her hair. At 8 O'Clock
yesterday morning the husband awake
ned and found his wife missing. He i'm
medistely gave the alarm, and search
was made for the woman. A number OF
campers dived into the lake and about
noon located the body in 50 feet OF water,
II was taken ashore.

The Wreck of the steamer Columbia.
San Francisco, July 29.-The full
story of the wreck Of the steamer Colum-
bia in her collision with the schooner
San Pedro is slowly coming in from
various points on the coast where sur
yiyors have landed.
The death list may not be 30 large as
at first reported, it being learned today
that III OF the 249 souls aboard the Co.
lumbia escaped death. Three life boats,
thought TO have foundered at sea, have
been picked up. One contained eigh-
teen and one fifteen persons. The num-
Der in the third is not reported.
A number of the survivors rescued
are eastern teachers, who sought diver
sion in a sea voyage after the meeting OF
the national association at Los Angeles.
Later reports have again thrown doubt
on the number of life boats bearing sur
vivors which were saved. This also
tends 10 cast the same doubt on the re-
ports that 1T persons have been saved.
It is now denied that more than one life
boat was picked up. 1t contained six
teen survivors and the bodies of two
victims.
Six life boats and three life rats,
loaded to the limit, were cut loose. Un-
til all are accounted for i. will be i'm
possible to tell the exact number saved.
Even then few persons who were able
to cling to wreckage may still have been
picked up by steamers which will carry
them to other ports.

Young Woman Murdered.

New York, July %. Esther NorliDg,
pretty 20.year-old girl, was shot dead
near the corner of Forty-second street,
and Fifth avenue at the time of the
heaviest down town rush today by Chss.
Warner, her former employer. Miss
Norling, 8 cashier for w. @. White, had
just entered store with A.. s. Spicer,
a clerk. As Spicer stood a; the door for
a moment stranger slipped past him
and fired once at the girl who dropped
crying: "Oharley Warner has shot me. /"
and expired in an instant. Warner es-
capped in the crowd.
After shooting the girl Warner made
his way through an angry mob into the
Spaulding building. When the police
followed he fired at them from an upper
floor and escaped by fire escape ming
ling in the crowd and getting away.
While the detectives aud police were
searching the city for the man who had
eluded them after shooting the girl,
Frank Warner walked hurriedly into
the store OF John @. Wilson, who is q
haberdasher. He asked Wilson TO loan
him $40. Warner formerly was haber-
dasher also.
Wilson said he was surprised to know
that he was in such circumstances. AS
Wilson arose and turned his back to get
the money Warner shot him twice in the
back and fed.
After committing the second crime
Warner was followed by police and an
angry crowd. After racing to Green
and Washington streets he wss struck
down by longshoremsn who welded q
truokman's hook. The crowd follow lg
jumped upon the alleged assassin and
beat him almost TO death before he YVES
rescued by the police and taken to Bel
leyue Hospital.
Miss Norling, it is said, was formerly
employed by Warner as his cashier. She
is said TO have told her acquaintance
that Warner had caused her much
uneasness recently by attempting to
force undesirable attentions upon her.
so far the police have been unable to
get clear idea of the motive that might
have led Warner to plan double attack,
If he went into Wilson's store with the
preconceiyed intention of shooting him.
The fact that all three of the persons in
yolyed were connected with the hsb-
erdashery business is considered a con
needing link upon which it may be pos
sible to base sequence of deduction.
