New York, for the Republican nomina.
ton for President in 1916. Mr.. Taft

Particularly, he cited the short bal
lot. the budget system Of state finances
and the moderni1stion Of the judiciary
20 bring the courts abreast Of ths
times as features Of the defeated con.
stitution which he had hoped would b.
ratified.
These three features, he said, should

STAATS-ZELTUNG STOCK
SELLS FOR $500
Bernard II. Ridder Says Auction
Was Just Legal Formally.

A sale Of fifteen shares Of stock Of
the New Yorker Staats-Zeitung" yes
terday, "a public auction, for 800 a
share, caused considerable speculation
in financial circles in view Of the fact
that the stock on October q brought
81 900 a share. Bernard II. Ridder, son
Of the late Herman Ridder, when asked
at his home last evening the cause Of
such large drop in the value of the
stock Of the newspaper, Of which his
father was the owner and publisher,
said:
This block Of stock was given as col
lateral by my father Cor a loan of $780,
900 by friend. but it had remained in
my fathers name. In order that the
stock could be transferred to the in
dividual who had made the loan, il was
offered at public auction, and as there
were no other bidders il was bid in by
my fathers friend at the nominal figure
of 500 a share"
Mr.. Ridder said that the stock was all
closely held by friends Of the Ridder
family.
