SMUGGLING IS BLAMED
ON STYLE PIRATES
Millinery Samples Kept Hidden
from Spying Eyes.

Because she chose to violate the Gus
toms laws rather than allow style pl-
rates to obtain glimpse OF the Mill
nerv samples she was importing as they
we're inspected on steamship piers, MISS
Frances Clyne, foreign buyer f0r
Fifth Avenue business house, was heId
in $1,000 bail yesterday in the Onited
States District Court.

eral grand jury in April, but Kept
under seal to allow the government
AGENTS time TO investigate the methods
of the firm Miss Clyne represents
charged her with smuggling in hats,
furs and other accessories Of women's s
dress.
The continued warfare waged among
uodistes with the object Of creating and
maintaining individual styles and at the
same time have in stock the leading
creations Of rival houses, is blamed for
Miss Clyne's failure TO pay duty on
her importations. The sum is compara-
lively small, which leads Custom House
officials to suspect that the widespread
smuggling of samples which they be-
jeve goes on is for no other purpose
than to preserve the freshness of the
styles.
Judge Hough listened to Miss Clyne's
tentative plea Of not guilty TO the
smuggling charge and allowed her at
torney, Arthur y. Nathan. until Octo-
Der II TO file a demurrer to the plea.

CHICAGO TEACHERS WIN
Board of Education Votes to Let Them
Join Local Federation.

Chicago, Sept. 29.-An amendment TO
the rule of the Board of Education
prohibiting teachers from holding
membership in the Chicago Teachers
Federation was passed at to-day's
meeting of the board
Superior Court Judge John VI. O'Con-
nor issued an injunction recently re-
straining the board from enforcing the
original rule. This rule prohibited
membership by members Of the educa-
ton department Of the board in any
organization having officers not en-
ployed by the board or in organiza-
tions affiliated with the Chicago branch
of the Federation OF Labor.
The amendment adopted to-day
strikes out that part Of the rule relat-
ing TO the officers not being members
Of the teaching force. Judge O'Connor
had mentioned the fact that the board
made no effort to prohibit member
ship in the National Educational As
sociation. an organization whose Off
GERS are not employees Of the board.

BANKS PUT CHECK
ON WAR BABIES
Conservatives in Wall
Street Alarmed by Spec
ulatiVe Wave.

Conservative Wall Street, by which
Is meant that element in the financial
district which has not gone insane O>er
the so-called war babies" and cannot
subscribe to the prevailing belief
that every industrial stock on the
list Of the exchange will sell for at
least 500, attempted yesterday to check
speculation in these issues To this
end some of the banks notified GUS
toners that heavier margins would
have TO be provided on loans in which
such industrials figure rs collateral.
On their part conservative houses
warned customers to 60 slow, and by
way of making their warning effective
called for heavier margins.
These acts, together with some profit
taking, had the effect of checking the
advance yesterday, though trading in
war babies at times was on the same
wild scale as on previous days.
Conditions in speculative Wall Street
are unlike anything in the memory Of
the oldest members Of the exchange.
Precedents that in other markets could
have been depended upon as guides
prove useless, for there never was quite
such a condition here before.
The result is that spectators who
have run the traditional shoestring
into a limousine are plunging with
their winnings, thus building up bull
account that because of its size is ex-
tremely vulnerable to any adverse de
velopment. Tne pyramid first and last
has contributed to more trouble in
Wall Street than any other one thing,
end brokers are afraid Of the immense
thing now building.
Ordinarily Wall Street spectators
think well of trade that yields five
points profit in a week. Now brokers
have difficulty in interesting customers
in anything that does not move that
many points in session and give
promise of FIVE times five points ad-
vance.
"Beth Steel and such issues have
DESTROYED the perspective of pubic
traders" is the way brokers explain
the situation.
In yesterdays market prices fuctu-
ated wildly and the ticker tape was
from five TO ten minutes behind the
actual transactions on the floor OF the
Exchange, with Tennessee Copper sue
ceeding Baldwin Locomotive in the
rapidty of its movements. There IS
only s5.000,000 of this company's stock
outstanding and it Is easily manipu-
lated either upward or down. A few
minutes after the opening it rose to 6S
only TO react again below 81. After
the quick fuctuation of the first hour
however, its movements were more nor
NAL.
A new high record was established in
the morning trading by Crucible Steel,
which went to 1O97s; Lackawanna Steel
went TO 94A, and General Motors TO
365. United States Steel common sold
at the highest price since 1912 at 1925.
In the afternoon reaction set IN
which was so severe in its intensity
that many of the earlier gains were
lost entirely or substantially dimin-
ished.
Sales, which at the start yesterday
promised TO exceed those of Tuesday,
the largest since September 26. 1911,
fell off during the last four hours OF
trading, and the total for the day was
less than 100000 shares, compared
with more than 100000 shares the
previous day.

Later in the afternoon another sue

As they ran, shouting hoarsely, they
were faced by fire from an enormous
number of machine guns, and from

steady rattle of these weapons, pour

There were machine guns in the win

For some time # was impossible to

to tell how the day was going, how
severe was the ordeal and how great

Now, however. after the first rush is

one Of the greatest achievements
gained by British troops in this war.
There were many battalions of new

with famous old traditions which al
ready had won undying glory on the
western front, were recruits in Kitch-

Boys That Fought Like Veterans.
Older men were among them-regi-

and scattered in many terrible days of
war-but the majority were of a
Younger and less experienced class, and
not the less keen because OF that. These
splendid boys listened through the
night of Friday last TO the intense bonn
bardment which preceded the assault.
That in itself was a tremendous test Of
nerve
But at 6:30 o'clock Saturday. when
the officers gave the word, battalions
leaned out of their trenches and ran
toward the enemy's line with a wild
hurrah. Their point of attack was the
village of Loos, some three and a half
miles away.
They reached the enemy's lines of
trenches without sustaining many
casualties and found that the first two
lines of barbed wire had been efec-
lively broken down by the artillery
bombardment. The third line was un-
