A rumor was floating around the City
Hall that the magistrates who were defying
the District Attorney'e request and loudly
calling on him TO go to their offices to see
their records might be considerably sur
prised by the District Attorneys taking
them at their word and walking In OH
them.
Another rumor was that Magistrate
In,ber. who, like Magistrate Hogg, refused
10 bring his books to the District Attorney
had also refused to let City Controller wal
ton, who is entitled to examine all court
records in which payments of money are
entered, examine the books at MS own OF
fice Had they been brought to the City
controller, the District Attorney might have
examined them there. Unless Mr.. Rotan
takes the magistrates dare" and visits
their offices, II will now be necessary FOR
him TO file a writ of duces tecum in Quar-
ter Sessions Court to get access to the
books.

obliged to take his records to the District
Attorney office. The books are public

Magistrate Imber that he didn't have TO
be a messenger boy for anybody"
This is the statement made today by
former state Senator Samuel w. Salus,
after a visit to District Attorney Rotans
Offices
This morning Magistrate Baker, accom-

Raker to see how their records line up with
those of certain other magistrates records
of the same cases. The District Attorney
hasn't any complaint to make against
Magistrate Baker. OF course, wen let him
see the records he wants"
when this statement was repeated 10
assistants in the District Attorneys once
they merely smiled.
Raker's willingness TO produce his records
nov, ends the report circulated from his
once on saturday. after District Attorney
Rotan had first called for the books, that
two of the record books Of his court, the
bail bond and return doekets, had been
mysteriously "stolen."
SbortIv after Magistrate Baker and Mr..
GRAY left the District Attorneys office for
mer senator Salus made his appearance. At
arst he would neither admit nor deny the
truth of the rumor that he had been en-
gaEed TO represent Magistrate lmber, but
later said that he had been called up on
the telephone by the magistrate and asked
his opinion
"I told him that he didn't have TO bring

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, Oct. S0.--The foreign ex-
change market was featured In the early

three to Ave centlmes in italian exchange,
