RtactieaaIy Movement Checked by
 Strength Of Reading Issues.

1O:3O A. M.--While most of the active stocks held steady at the opening today, decided weakness ap- peared in spots. Liquidation was re- stunned in Canadian Pacific, which dropped a point to 190 Is, the low- est in several years. New Haven, Louisville and various industrials lost one to two points. These de- clines shaped the course of the market. which eased off after the opening, with severe pressure against Steel Reading advanced in spite of the general tendency. The strength of this market leader checked the reactionary movement, which was of small proportions in most cases.

Finds Daughter Missing
a Year Only to Lose Her
Again in Police Court

After searching a year for his
daughter, Alexander Karol, of Wac
kule, Pa, found her in a house at 296
Oliver street last night and lost her
again in the Third Precinct Court to-
day She was held with Ferdinando
Ferrare, twenty-five years old, of 232
Jefferson street, in 5000 bail for the
grand jury on charges preferred by
Plainclthesman nreX, of the Third
precinct.
over a year ago the girl, Mary
Karol, who says she is eighteen years
old, disappeared from her home in
the little Pennsylvania mining town.
Shortly after her disappearance her
father found a foreigner with bank
account of $4,000 who wanted to
marry Mary.
Narol yesterday found his daugh-
ter engaged to Ferrare, but willing
to break the engagement in favor of
the Waekule sutton. Miss Karol is
Polish and speaks few English words,
while Ferare is an Italian and has
the same difficulties with the English
tongue. In the face of these difficult
ties the couple have been counting
for several months.
The two were arrested by Plain
clothesmen BreX and Daniele yester-
day.

Three Men, Victims of
Gas Poisoning, Slightly
improved in City Hospita

Leon PrudhommeauX, French
chef, and Charles Stolpe, who were
overcome by gas Wednesday,, and
Charles Walsh, who was found I'M
conscious in his gas-filled room yes
terday are reported to be slightly
improved at the City Hospital to-
day. The three men are still in a
serious condition but they have
good chance for recovery.
If Prodhommeaux RECEIVERS he will
owe his life to the prompt use of the
Public Service pulmotor When he
was found in his room at So Bank
street, Wednesday morning, he was
unconscious and with only spark
of life in his body. He was rushed
to the City Hospital, where the in
ternes alternately gave him oxygen
and used the pulmotor.
Stolpe, who is ffty-two years old,
was found unconscious in his room
at Psi High street, shortly after
noon Wednesday. Both the gas jets
in his room were turned on. The
police believe that the man tried to
commit suicide. Stolpe was found by
Charles Cook the owner of the house.
Thomas Walsh was a roomer in
Mrs. Dennis Osborne's house, 293
Broad street. He was found uncon-
scious yesterday with the gas escap-
ing from several unlighted jets on
his gas stove. It is said that he
came home intoxicated the xight be-
fore and attempted to light the stove.
Oxygen was given at the hospital
and for a while Walsh recovered
consciousness, but later suffered a
relapse. This is due, it is said, to
the liquor the man had taken.

and the people of Cleveland have had
the best of the bargain ever since. To
ask the Federal government to take
over large industries seems Socia1istic.
but in the case of the food fish, placed
in the waters by the Almighty, Who
recognizes no mans right over an

Peoples Health Involved.
A member of Congress said that the
health of the people is something
that the Federal government is very
much interested in and it cannot do
anything better than to assume con-
troll of the fish of the coasts and see
that the people get not only the adj
vantage of cheap fish, but also see
that the people receive fresh t1sh. he
said that more people have been
poisoned through eating fish that has
been in cold storage too long time
than through all the canned sooos
in the country.
He further said that 1t was UP 70
the government to act Immediately
and not wait for each State to adopt
resolutions requesting Congress to
act in the matter, and pointed 10 the
House bills of the Hon. j. Charles
Linthicum as the means already at
hand to carry out this purpose, Dut
If the State of New Jersey. a recog-
nized fishing industry commonwealth
would forward a resolution to Con-
gress requesting government control
it would start a movement through"
out the country that no body of men
could stop.
