MARKET MOVEMENT
Of THE DAY

New York. Dec. e.-Hesitation and
constraint made themselves felt in
the stock speculation again today fol-
lowing the volatile movement of Sat
urtiay. The explanation of the mar
ket's action was somewhat obscure. II
was suspected that process of dis
tributioa OF stocks under cover might
be going on for account of some of
the most important financial interests.
That the appearance Of things was
designedly confused in the work Of
forming this appearance made the
smaller following Of habitual traders
wary in extending their operations.
The dullness into which the market
fell from time to time was due partly
10 Il reduction of the outstanding
shor, interest
The assembling of congress had its
usual restraining effect on the specu-
lative spirit. II was understood at the
outset that the presidents message
would not be presented today and the
stock market believed itself to be ac-
curatly informed of the contents of
that document. The soothing effect
OF that supposed knowledge was some
what impaired ny an intimation that
ii was to be followed at an early date
by other special messages. devoted to
the topics in which the stock market
takes a particular interest. There was
not much confidence in what may be
the contents of the still unwritten
messages.
The sudden drop in American Sugar
regarded as suggestive and helped
to prompt selling movement of wider
scope. At the same time there was
an aggressive demand for other stocks.
This had neutraiizing effect. There
was occasional demand for Reading.
with insistent assertions that div
idend increase was near. Sales of
Rock Island preferred at 30 made Il

These and like points of strength gave
the market spotted appearance and
did not alter the weakness of others,

among the Pacific railroads

Butte, Dec. Especial For sew

WARR|NER JAILED
FOR LACK OF BAIL
Mrs. Ford Is AIse Arrested and
Put In Prison
EVENTS MOVE RAPIDLY
Bondsmen Fail to Show Up to Aid War
rlner and He Is Locked Up-An-
other Man viii Probably
Be Arrested.

Cincinnati, November 16.-Charles L.
Warmer, former local treasurer of the
Big Four railroad, is in jail tonight
and warrant has been issued for the
arrest of Mrs. Jeanette Stewart-Ford,
on a charge of receiving $1,000 of the
s64S.oO0 which Warmer is accused Of
having embezzled.
The warrant against Mrs. Ford was
issued at 1880 o'clock tonight, upon ap-
plication of Prosector Hunt, who had
been closeted the greater part of the
day with Warmer. The former rail-
road official informed the prosecutor
that he had given part of the money
he is alleged to have distracted to Mrs.
Ford, and that the last payment he had
made was on October l. The prosecu-
tor Immediately acted on this infor-
nation.
Events moved rapidly in the War
riner case today. The accused man ap-
peared in the afternoon at the crimi-
nal court to plead to the Indictment
returned yesterday by the grand jury,
charging him with embezzlement and
grand larceny. He entered a formal
plea sof not guilty and his bond was
fixed at $4,000, the same amount at
which IT stood prior to his indictment
The four men, however, who had
come to his assistance when he was
first arrested were not in evidence to
renew their pledges. 1t had been re-
ported early In the day that Warmer
would be unable to renew his bond,
and would be compelled to go to jail,
and this report was verified.
A dramatic sequel to the sensational
turn in the case was enacted later to-
night when a half-score of constables
and deputies went to the handsomely
furnished apartments of Mrs. Stewart
Ford and placed her under arrest She
was indignant, but after protesting was
removed to the courthouse and subse-
quently placed In Jail in default of bail.
That a warrant charging a Chicago
man formerly in the employ of the
Big Four with being an accomplice in
the alleged Matchmaking of Warmer
would also be taken out In connection
with the one against Mrs. Stewart
Ford was rumored early this evening.
Prosecutor Hunt said in respones to
questions that no further arrests would
be made tonight and that he had pre-
pared no additional affidavits asking
for warrants. He would not make
definite statement regarding the prob
ability of other arrests.

IDENTIFICATION
Is MADE EASIER

Washington, November 16.-(Special.)-
The obtaining of Identification records of
practically every enlisted man in the
army has been completed. The records
consist of finger prints, photographs and
a short personal description.
The department depends largely upon
the finger prints and several cases are
cited as to its utility.
In one case a soldier was found wan
dering in a deirious condition on the
streets Of Columbus. Ohio. He was taken
in charge by police authorities. his fin
ger prints recorded and sent to Washing
ton. He was identified promptly, and
was later sent to his company in the
west During the year $40 cases of fraud
uent enlistment of former deserters, mil
itary convicts and others were discov-
cred through this system. Two hundred
and forty-six were dishonorably dis
charged and imprisoned by courtmartal.
Two, when found out, attempted to es-
cape and were killed.

LIVELY DEBATES
IN CONVENTION
Railway Commissioners Discuss
Powers of States
ATTEMPT TO LIMIT POWER
Contention by State Railway Commits

stricts State Laws in Regard
to Regulation of Railroads.
ATTEMPT TO LIMIT POWER

Washington, November 16.-Because of
the contention of many of the members
!! that an attempt was being made to limit
| the power of state railway commission
ers, an acrimonious discussion marked
the opening of the annual convention OF
the National Association of Railway Com
missioners here today
The discussion arose over the recon-
mendation of committee that the con-
vention indorse the idea of a federal law
giving the interstate commerce commits
sion authority to prescribe uniformity In
classification for interstate traffic, and
urging state commissioners to make ex-
ceptions sparingly. Commissioner Goth
lin of Ohio commended that those who
voted for the report bound themselves to
maintain the classification fixed by the
commission on interstate shipments. He
was supported by Commissioner Burr of
Florida.
Commissioner Clark of the interstate
commerce commission and chairman of
the committee which made the report de-
clared the Ohio commissioner was unfair
, in placing such an Interpretation upon
the report.
He said the committee simply desired to
call attention to the necessity of excep-
, lions not being made.
I'm the southern classification today S.
per cent are exceptions and IS per cent
are the original declared Mr.. Clark
The Ohio commissioner wanted the
convention to strike out portion of the
report, but he was voted down by Is to

tee was then adopted. A. Fl. Smith, vice
president of the New York Central, spoke
on the progress of safety in railroad OPP
Grafton.
Mr.. Smith asked for public cooperation
to reduce the dangers from trespass upon
railroad property.
During the past year. he pointed out,
500 trespassers lost their lives. ut seems
of no avail that thousands of the worst
class are arrested he said. "One line
arrested over 5000 trespassers during the
year and secured convictions in 70 per
cent of the cases, but in half of these con-
victions sentence was suspended which
usually means that the offender used the
railroad to escape from the scene
H Warner Hill of Georgia, chairman
of the Georgia commission in reporting
on the powers, duties and work of state
railways commissions, said that while
radicals and sensationalists have played
an important part In the exposure of evils
In railroad operations. more conservative
men are necessary for their elimination.
