Ing one Of his friends. This person
they expect TO interrogate closely this
morning. and II his answers 20 certain
questions are unsatisfactory he will
be taken into custody.
Officials Of the. bonding company are
learning more and more each day of

Smith was positive yesterday that

quently wagered upward OF 500 a day.
A bonding company was notified eigh-
teen months ago OF the bets OF a Wall

closely with Bradley's, but no atten-
tion was paid to the report.
Joseph Byrne. cashier OF the

but II will take several days be-
fore the banks customers reply to the

GRAND JURY HEARS
RIGGS BANK CASE
Witnesses Called to Testify as
to Alleged Stock Trans
actions.

Washington, Sept. 22.-Interest in tho
case between the Riggs National Bank
and Secretary of the Treasury McAdoc
and Controller Williams was increased
today by the bringing officials OF the
hank before the grand jury. The Wit
nesses we're Vice President Milton T..
Allies and Assistant Cashier Joshua
Evans, jr., former bookkeeper OF the
failed brokerage firm with which IT was
alleged by the government in the equity
case that the bank had had stock trans
actions, and the girl notary before
wbom three of the bank officers swore
that the bank as such never had any
stock transactions through this firm.
Also three national bank examiners,
Donahue. Trimble and Smith, who nave
been working over the books oil the
hank since prior to the ming OF the
suit last April were witnesses. Two
If these three examiners have been
continuously on duty at the Riggs bank
since a year ago last May.
The affidavit which was made by the
three officers of the bank denying
stock transactions was as follows;
1.-THE bank never at any time since
it's organization bought or sold any
stock whatever from or through the
firm of Lewis Johnson & Co., and that
il any entries on the books OF the
bankrupt firm Lewios Johnson g. co.
purported to show that the Riggs bank
had ever at any time since its organ
ization bought stock, sold stocks or
made short sales, those entries are
false"
This affidavit was signed by Presi-
dent C. C. Glover, Vice-Presldent ". D.
Father and Cashier H. II. Father.
In response TO this attorney LOUIS
Untermyer, for the Treasury officials
filed an affidavit from w. Morris Lam
mond. the bookkeeper for Lewis John-
son & Co., who appeared before the
grand Jury to-day, reciting that the
books of Lewis Johnson g. Co. showed
there had been six thousand stock
transactions by the Riggs bank IN us
account with that brokerage firm.
Attorney Frank j. Hogan, for the
bank. after this affidavit was fled IN
the District Court, explained that the
affidavit of the bank officers meant only
that there had been no transactions py
the bank as a bank. II had frequently
bought and sold stocks for customers
accounts. he said, which comprised the
transactions shown on the books OF
Lewis Johnson & Co.

WESTINGHOUSE
DIVIDEND INCREASE
Stock Put on 6 Per Cent Basis
Company Has S6O,OOO,OoO
in War Orders.

Directors of the Westinghouse Flee
trio and Manufacturing Company yes
terday confirmed the predictions Of
Wall Street and increased the dividend
rate on the common stock from 4 per
cent 10 6 per cent annually by declar-
ing a quarterly dividend of Ia per
cent in contrast TO the previous rate OF
/ per cent. Immediately following the
announcement of the higher dividend
the stock sold up, but later declined
from the high price of the day, and at
the close of the stock market showed
ne. loss of pa points.
In an official statement issued at the
close of the meeting it was announced
that the company has received con-
tracts for the manufacture OF war mu-
nitions aggregating approximately soO'-
600 900, the greater portion OF which Is
a contract for rifles which is TO be ex.
ecuted at factories in New England
especially acquired for the purpose.
A significant feature in Wall Streets
viewpoint of the u per cent dividend
declaration was the fact that earnings
from normal business In the current
quarter were sufficient to warrant the
increase to the per cent rate. The
rife business contributed nothing TO
the current quarters earnings, as de-
liveries TO the Allies will not be begun
until next month.
Another concern which has obtained
a large amount of war business is the
New York Air Brake Company. This
announcement was made yesterday by
President C. A. Starbuck following a
meeting of the directors.
"The company has closed contract
for an additional order for cartridge
cases amounting TO S3,675,0OO, bringing
the total of orders now on the books
for war material to s20,242 500. 1t is
the policy Of the company to keep its
stockholders informed of any addl-
tional contracts which may be closed
so they may not be misguided by ex-
IRENE statements given out by irrespon-
sible parties"

WAR HAS SHIFTED
AMERICAS TRADE
Record of Exports from
New York Shows Increase
and Odd Changes.
GAIN FOR THE YEAR
is $409,506, 036
Falling OF in Shipments to the
United Kingdom, Central Amer
lea and West Indies.

The European war has doomed Amer
lean exports to France, Italy and Rus
STA and practically Killed all shipments
to Germany, Austria, Belgium and The
Netherlands, while trade with the
United Kingdom is falling off. This
was revealed in the foreign trade rec
ord of exports from the port Of New
York. compiled by the National City
Bank, for the week ended September
II.
A substantial increase was shown in
the total exports, which from August
1, 1914, 10 September II. 1916. were
s1,345, 6S1 ,735, as compared with, $780,
1869 for the same period Of the pre-
ceding year.
Shipments TO South America. instead
Of increasing, as predicted at the be-
ginning of the war, have shown a dis
tinct decrease for the year, and the
same thing has been true Of the Latin
countries Of Central America and the
West Indies. The heaviest exports
have been munitions Of war to the AL
lies, and the compilers of the record
have had TO add several new classifi-
cations of goods to their list Of a year
ago. Prominent on the list are picric
acid. aeroplsnes, nitrocellulose, nitro
tuluol, trinitrotuluol. tuluol, projectiles
and smokeless powder. Formaldehyde,
hosiery and underwear, nickel, rails,
shells (empty), shoes and soap also
have been greatly in demand, and even
typewriters have been bought in heavy
quantities for military use.
