CHANGE IN COURT HOUSE
Added Work to Treasurer's Office
Makes it Necessary.

Through the carrying of the amend
ment submitted to the people at the
late election, providing for the collec-
ton of taxes by the treasurer in the
future, Frank Rice will find the duties
OF his office greatly increased and those
OF Assessor Rothwell correspondingly
reduced. The change will make it nee
essary for Mr.. Rice to have additional
deputies and also a larger office. With
the idea Of enlarging the room now oc-
cupied by the treasurer, a number. of
changes in the arrangement of the Of
fices in the court house will be made
shortly.
The room on the west side of the hall,
now occupied by the copying clerks of
the auditor Is office, will be thrown into
the present office occupied by the treas
urer. The assessor 3 office will be
moved from its present location on the
east side to the room now occupied by
the probate court, connecting arch
between this room and the treasurer 8
office being cut. The probate judge
will occupy the room formerly used by
the sheriff's office and the office now
given over to the assessor will be turned
over to the copying clerks of the aud
itor's office. "a.
The court mouse will be repapered
and some other repairs made and the
new arrangements promised to prove
highly satisfactory to all.

NEW HAVEN, CONN, Dec. line
gotiations are now going on between

he said explicitly that the matter had
not been formally acted upon in any
way, and that he did not know whether

EXCHANGE.
METHODS Barred
INPUjOPROBE
Railroad and Other Shares Sold
Repeatedly Without Actual
Transfer of Paper.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Figures
showing how railroad and other shares
are sold over and over again on the
New York stock exchange without any
actual transfer were presented to the
Puio money trust investigating COM
mittee today when that body began its
actual probe of the American money
market. The figures were given by
Lawrence w. Scudder, a statistician,
who has made a deep study of the con-
ditions prevailing on the New York
stock exchange. He said that the
transfers of United States Steel stock
represented only about rs per cent OF
the shares sold.
The capital stock of the Reading sub
ject to sale was dealt in thirty times a
year The total Of Erie capital stock, he
said, listed on the stock exchange was
112S,000 shares. With regard to both
the Erie and Reading, the witness found
the volume of sales was graded when
the shares reached top prices Inter
meyer developed that brokerage fees on
tn sales of Reading for year would
amount to seven and one-half per cent
of the par value. or about 20 per cent OF
the selling value.
Clearing House Head on Grill.
W. e. Frew, chairman of the New
York clearing house committee,
explained to the committee to-
day the clearing houses attitude on
the subject of charges on the collection
of out of-town checks, Frew said the
inland exchange committee of the as
ISOLATION had made a report on the cost
of this matter and he asked that the re-
port be put In record. Samuel I'm
termeyer, counsel for the committee,
asked Frew If the report showed what
the difference in cost to the New York
bank customers was as the result of
the enforcement of the collection rule,
Can you tell what tax this rule i'm
poses on the merchants of the country?7
asked Untermeyer.
1--WE have not figured that out exact
ly," said Frew, explaining that the fig
ures did not cover that phase of the
question.
Untermeyer asked If the witness had
seen a statement by Frank A. Wander
lip that the rule meant a loss of $3,O00,-
600 year to the merchants of the
country, Answering the question, Frew
declared that the annual out-of town
collections of the New York clearing
house amounted to $4,s59, 900, 900, with
a daily average of over $14O0O,O0O
Loss $3.50 Daily.
The loss of interest on these accounts
figured at four per cent would be about
$560,000 a year, or about $3.50 a day.
The average period of loss due to COL
lections being four days. in which the
banks would be deprived of interest, the
average sum would be something over
$4,000.
DO you think there is any foundation
for Vanderlips claim Of loss of So
100000 year?"
az don't want to criticise him." said
Frew
Did Vanderlip have any data from
the clearing house?"
He had his own"
Untermeyer asked if Frew had not
included In his schedule of collection
expenses, charges for collections in
New York and Greater New York. Frew
denied this, but Untermeyer asked
questions intending to show that such
was the fact. III

record as favoring drastic amendments

Attacks l.. & NJ. Methods.

the Louisville and Nashville railroad
and It's unfairness to union labor" said
Harvey O. Teat, chairman Of the board
of directors of the Brotherhood of Lo-
connective Firemen and Engineers.
ut is an old story In this section and
railroad employees Of the Southeast all
ways will be in fighting attitude while
the present methods obtain and the
present management remains.
I'VE called the L. e. n. soulless cor
poration in the resolution we adopted
yesterday condemning its policies As
a matter of fact, it reminds me Of the
Russian government in it's matters Of
administration. Do you know that half
the employees Of that railroad are de-
tectives? 1t is a system Of spies. whose
employees are watched continually
There isn't a doubt in my mind but
the Milton A. Smith regime caused the
Georgia railroad strike. All unionists,
well Informed on the L. & n. and it's
methods, know that the Georgia off,
Gals took their cue directly from Smith
when Paschal was discharged.
Use Boycott as Weapon.
This action merely was a part OF the
L. & n policy to smash a labor union
wherever it is found. AS lessee of the
Georgia with the Atlantic Coast Line. it
is only natural for the l.. & n. officials
to try and break the unions on the
Georgia system.
Our methods OF fighting the Louis
vile and Nashville will be much as
usual We will use the only weapon
available, the boycott We are having
marked success with ii now
1T would be surprising to you to
know the number OF reliable business

cause of union labor. which have ceased
to ship over the Louisville and Nash

is beginning to tell, and the Louisville
