LET EN- GO THE LIMIT
SIMPLY A LITTLE JOKE
That .Panic", in the Stock Market Is
Not Worrying the President-Men1-
Der of Cabinet Thinks the Pleas
antry Will Prove Blessing.

Washington, March 14.-Tha official
family of the president fails TO see any
great danger in the sudden weakness
of the stock market which has now
continued through two days of specE-
lative trading. 1t is true that the
president has made arrangements TO
prevent the entire collapse of the mar
ket in the usual manner, but none can
see any real reason for worry and the
matter is taken rather in the nature
of a practical joke, started by inter
ests which desire to cause lessening
of government investigation.
1t is said that the president is
amused at the efforts of the so-called
"iokers' and that he is anxious TO
have them carry their pleasantly to
the limit, feeling that it will act as a
boomerang.
1t is contended by one member of
the cabinet, at least, that the fact that
a little water is being pressed out of
stocks will prove a blessing and he is
in favor of a continuation, contend
ing that it is the only the professional
trader, who started the fun, who will
be injured.

in GRASP OF THE LAW
Editor Babcock of the Jasper Demo

Criminal Libel.

Rensselaer,, Ind. March 14.-Frank
r. Babcock, editor of the Jasper
County Democrat, has been placed
-urder arrest for alleged criminal Ii
bel, the charge being preferred by
Abraham Halleck, foner commission
er of Jasper county. Several months
ago Mr. Babcock published NJ article,
in which 1t was alleged that at the
time of the purchase of the court
house furniture, some years ago. three
leather-covered couches were sent
with the furniture as presents" for
the commissioners awarding the con
tract The Democrat further alleged
that one commissioner flatly refused
to accept couch and the other COM
missioners finally followed suit, but
that in time one of the touches mys-
teriously disappeared. AS a matter of
fact, all three of the touches are still
in the court house-one in the wo-
mems room, another in the recorders
office and still third in the judges
room. Mr.. Babcock promptly gave
bond and was released. Three ether
charges of libel. based on publications
in the Democrat, are pending against
him, in which editor Jones, of the Mo-
non News, is complainant

WALL STREET STEAD|ER
Stocks Fell, However, to a No

PRESIDENT DIDN'T SCARE

New York, March 14.-Notwith-
standing that some of yesterday s
prices were the lowest points hit by
quotations in the market since the
panic of 1901, there was no great ex-
element in Wall street today.
Hard blows were struck yesterday but
it was the big fellows who were
punched Walls are not expected from
these quarters and the bleating lambs
had most all been shaken out of the
market before yesterdays squeeze
came.
The panic is taken to mean that the
railroad crowd wants to scare Roose-
welt and that since the President
didn't scare a little bit, the scheme
failed. Losses in all stocks, however,
continued throughout the day.
