HOPE CITY IS SUED
BY Y. A. T|lLOTSON
$3.50 Claimed as Damages for Refusal
Of Mayor Major to Permit Dance in 0p-
era-Aouse on Christmas Night.

Sheriff Crimson appeared in
our city Tuesday evening and
served papers on T. M. Major as
mayor of this city informing
him that V. A. Tillotson, Of Til
lotson's Travelling Dance Or
chestra, demanded $1230 as
damages and to cover his loss
through the refusal of the city
executive to permit a dance on
December 25th after Mr.. Tillot-
son had booked the house for
that date.
His bill is as follows: $4,000
for one days lost time to V. A.
Tillotson, $100 expenses for or.
chestra, advertising, and main
tanning dance, $100 profits from
said dance, or a total of $3.50 ac.
tual damage. $500 is claimed as
damage by plaintiff for injury in
his profession, person and pro-
perty, and $500 exemplary dam.
ages, the last item being as
punishment and warning to the
city.
AS the matter has not, as yet,
come before the city council,
nothing has been done with it
The case, if it goes to court, will
not be heard before the regular
term which comes in June. The
council will probably consider
their action in the matter at the
next regular meeting which will
be held on Monday, Feb. 5th.

Mr.. Baruch provided cross section
OF big speculation in Wall Street. Ana
it was evident that he enjoyed telling
the dramatic story as much as his audi
ence enjoyed hearing it. Retieence is
not one of his fetiches, though ne
waited always for Mr.. whipple's ques-
tions, volunteering nothing.
He had prepared for weeks for his
appearance on the stand and appeared
armed with documents showing his &C
counts with his brokers, certified TO by
expert accountants. From these he
read the amounts of his daily opera
tions. beginning with December II and
ending with the ODD. He explained
their nature as he went along and gave
his reasons i'm each instance Tor BUY
ing or selling. interlarding his com
ment with general observations and, II
ths truth must out, with few mixed
metaphors.
Incidentally. he took a gloomy view
throughout OF what he was pleased to
call our "false prosperity" IL was
whispered that he still is snort OF
stocks.
His cleanup for the period in ques-
ton was exactly S476,l6s.47. He de,
MED that he was prompted by any
/ leak" from Washington or elsewhere,
| but emphasized from time TO time the
profound impression which Chancellor
Won Bethmann- Hollweg's peace speech
to the Reichstag had made on him.
/ This and Lloyd Georges reply, "leav-
/ ing the door open for peace as he eX-
pressed it. provided him with most OF
/ his incentive TO sell short, apparently.
Long and Short Both
con December H." he began, 81 was
| long on war stocks on the brokers &C
counts only, not in outright holdings.
| | don't want TO express an opinion as
TO the value Of these stocks. That's
personal. and don't want to influence
any operator. But on the 18th, 18th,
/ 18Th, l4th and 18th ] sold long stocks
/ to about 1000 shares and short stocks
4 to around $4,000 or $4,000. The zenith
was reached, apparently, on the 14th,
when | sold short $4,000 Steel"
/ Mr.. Whipple requested him to take
/ his steel trading as an illustration and
carry it through from day TO day.
On December II, he said, he bought
: 600 shares of Steel, expecting 1t to
/ rise. "but it didn't" and he sold the
/ following day at a loss Of about 4
points. Then came the address of Won
Bethmann-Hollwegi in the Reichstag re-
gsrding peace, he said. and foreseelng
/ the effect the speech would have on the
market on December 10 he sold short
as rapidly as possible, dealing in all IN
22,4O0 shares Of Steel that day.

son didn't start earlier was that |
had been out of touch with things dur
ing the previous day, due to being abb
sent from my Office"
Baruch declared he believed history
would show that Won Bethmann-Holl-
weg's speech marked the turning point
in the world war toward peace.
81 realized" he said, that the peo-
Piles minds, heretofore thinking only

of war would turn to thinking Of
peace; that outside Of the better things
thev would think of what effect peace
would have on business and finance,
and that man ought to act quickly in
selling securities"
Market Was Technically Rad"
WAS there any other reason for your
short selling on the 18th y
81 knew that the technical position of
the market was bad" he replied. "But
the real thing was the body blow Of this
speech, which still hangs like pail
over the whole situation"
The witness relieved himself Of this
metaphor while leaning back in his
chair, with his hands clasped behind
his head.
Like his predecessor. the late James
x. Keene. Mr.. Baruch is tall and spare
and gray. But. unlike the former
plunger, he is clean shaver, the thin,
straight line of his mouth providing
one Of the more striking features OF
his appearance. IL is a mouth which.
though grimly compressed, curls up
ever so slightly at the corners, giving
one the impression frequently that its
owner is smiling-but n look at his
eyes, behind their frosty pince nez, i'm
mediately dispels the notion.
Were you watching for peace :" he
was asked
II knew when peace came il was going
to raise the mischief in the market
He sold short 10000 more Steel on
December Ii and the close OF business
was short $4,000 shares.
Covered When Break Came
On December IS the market broke
and he covered by buying in all but
II 900 shares. lie had gone short, he
said. at around 1913 and covered at an
average of 40.
on December IS he sold short again
1000 shares, and on December 10 went
short 2s,4O0 more. On December 20
he covered 1900 shares, reducing his
short account 70 25,5OO.
Touching on his December 10 deals
Mr.. Whipple asked Baruch if they were
affected by any information from
Washington regarding the Administra-
TONS attitude toward peace.
Absolutely not" he replied.
"Did you receive any information
from Washington regarding the Ad-
ministration's attitude" Whipple
asked.
Absolutely not" he replied. IF
had known of the Presidents note that
day could have started in at 10
o'clock and sold all day"
Foresaw Lloyd George Reply
Baruch said he had anticipated the
Lloyd George speech replying to the
German peace proposals on Deem
Der 10.
81 knew, of course, that it was COM
ing. | felt that it would be just what
IL turned out 10 be--that IL would leave
the door open for peace. ] can see now
how it came out on the ticker, but it
leaves the door open for peace"
Baruch was asked II he considered
his operations at this time large.
ooh, they were fair operations, but
I've done larger. I'll tell you about
some others IL you want TO know. I'll
tell you anything you ask me-"
