game laws more favorable to farmers
and decided to declare war on Chinese

the benefit of city sportsmen to the
detriment of the farmers. The Grange
wants law that shall permit farmer

KOREANS QUIT NEW HAVEN
WALL STREET PUZZLED BY AC.
 TON OF FINANCIAL AGENTS.
Why Firm Withdraws as Fiscal Agent of Railway It Has Dominated for
 Last Eight Years a Question.

New York, Sept. S.-Wall street is groping for the real answer to the withdrawal of the J. r. Morgan firm as financial agents of the New York. New Haven & Hartford railroad. There were three possible solutions to the puzzle, and these three ques- tions are being asked along the street:
 Did the Morgan firm, after work ing the road dry through dominance of its financial property, quit when the fire of public opinion became too hot?"
 Did the Morgan firm quit because Morgan was angered by the attitude of the new president, Howard Elliott. expressed in the latter's recent decla- ration that the road would pay no more dividends it had not earned 2"
 Did the Morgan firm quit because of pressure from the little stockhold- CTS who have denounced the Morgan and Rockefeller policy of secrecy?"
 In discussing probable answers to these questions. {. was pointed cut

NEVER BAT A BAT,' IS ADVICE
Winged Creatures Kill Mosquitoes and Destroy Insects Harmful to
 Crops, Says Government.

Washington, Sept S-"Never bat a bat, for he's battling for humanity" is not the title or refrain of a popular song, but it is, in effect, the title of 9 warning issued by the experts of the department of agriculture against the killing or destruction of the nocturnal winged fighters of insects. The warn. ing was issued as the result of an ac- emulation of inquiries as to the best methods of eXterminating bats.
 Bats are a benefit, rather than a plague the statement declares, "as they destroy mosquitoes and a num- Der of other insects that harm crops and orchards, The superstition that they entangle themselves in women's hair is without foundation. On the contrary, the ordinary bat is harm less creature
 The department experts give of. ficial recognition to the vampire bat which, they declare sucks the blood of animals"

WESTERN FUEL co. IS FINED
Indictments Charge Defraudno of United States Government-Pen-
 alty Assessed for Contempt.

San Francisco, Sept. S.-Judge Maurice T. Dooling in the United States district court ordered a fine of 5000 imposed on the Western Fuel Co. and directed the Imprisonment of David c. Norcross, secretary of the company, for contempt because of the refusal to produce the company's books before the Federal grand jury. which is investigating alleged customs weighing frauds.
 Counsel for the Western Fuel Go. and Secretary Norcross asked that execution of the courts orders be de ferred until Monday and this was granted by Judge Dooling.
 The indictments against the West ern Fuel Co. charge that it defrauded the government out of hundreds of thousands of dollars by returning false weighs on imported coal SUD- piled to American-owned steamships on which a portion of the duty is re. mitieI.

receive 2i2 per cent commission for selling bonds worth s67,552, 400 to themselves and their associates?"
 Still another phase was injected into the discussion of the Morgan withdrawal" Some Wall street m<n declared fiatly that the whole thing was a grandstand play, to give the public the impression that the house of Morgan is getting away from all connections with the New Haven road. It was pointed out that the withdrawal merely meant that the Morgans abrogated their present con tract to act as bankers for a purely Morgan road, but that the majority stock ownership and actual control of the road will remain with the Mor. gan-Rockefeller interests.

that when the MorganR rule of the New Haven began in 1905 the capital stock was $S0,O00,000. The 1912 fiscal report showed that the cap ital stock had been increased to S179,- 583, 3,104. Bonds of the company in 1905 amounted to S37 ,000,000; their value in 1912 was $205, OCT 100. There was surplus in 1905 of $30S052. In 1912 this had dwindled to a deficit of $903,22S.
 Price of stock in 1905 was PIG and 1n 1912 it was 142A. Now the stock is quoted at 9l34. From 1905 until 1912 the dividends were held to s per cent. Last year for the first time they fell to 6 per cent.
 All these figures, it was declared along the street, have to be consid- cred in answering the three questions as ito why Morgan got from under"
 One factor in the situation was the discovery that the withdrawal by the Morgan firm will not affect the New Ravens proposed new issue of $67.- 552,400 debenture bonds, which has caused a storm of disapproval because the Morgan firm will receive 21h per cent commission for handling them. This commission, a matter of $1,5SS,- SlO, will be divided between an un- derwriting syndicate organized to is- sue the bonds and the Morgan firm for acting as the bankers in the trans action. The syndicate will receive 2 per cent and the Morgan firm one half of 1 per cent. The syndicate, however, is principally J. F. Morgan and William Rockefeller.
 Besides the commission of 21A per cent, it was pointed out the under writers would pocket fat profits since the New \ York market for the issue already has advanced the price of the bonds 6 per cent above par
 There is still one barrier in the way of this bond issue. The Massachusetts railroad commission must approve it. When the question comes up before the Bay state commission next Tues day, opposing stockholders will ask the question: why should Morgan

 Miller was doing the other mans work when the wreck occurred. Miller said the il! engineer was to have taken back his run Tuesday but it was found he could not do it and have the proper sleep.
