GERMAN FOOD SUPPLY
is CALLED SCANTY
Food Dictator Warns Public to Use
Strict Economy AS Ediblcs
Are Scarce.

Amsterdam, Jan. 80, via London,
1910 a. m.-According to the Berlin
Vorwaerts, Adolph Batocki, president
of the food regulation board, clearly
indicated in a recent speech that the
German food supply for the spring
was very scanty and would require
the most careful distribution and
economical use. Calculating potatoes
in the value Of wheat he said that for
the current year there were two mil
lion tons less of both available for
animal and human consumption than
last year and that owing to the pro-
hibition of wheat for animal feeding,
this would greatly diminish the yield
OF animal products. Even turnips
cannot now be used for animal fodder
Herr Batocki pointed out that i'm
ports from neutrals were a slender
factor in the situation and the assets
gained in Rumania while valuable,
could improve conditions only grad
ually owing to transportation difficult
ties.

Financial
Railroad Stock at Lowest Point
In Its History

Wall Street.-Further acute weak
points to 40 1-2, it's lowest quota
ton in the history of that property,
accounted for the irregularity Of the
stock list during today's early deal
ings. Other rails, including st. Paul,
Norfolk and Western, Chesapeake and
Ohio and Ontario and Western were
heavy Neutralizing features were
found among the industrials, Bethle-
hem Steel gaining five points and
United States Steel q substantial
traction. Shippings, metals, Central
Leather and some of the more active
specialties also hardened on nominal
dealings.
New Haven extended it's decline to
81 IL before it recovered to 40 IA,
meanwhile unsettling the entire list.
st. Paul yielded 2 1-2 points, Reading
l L. and some of the minor rails n
point. Bethlehem Steel reacted 10
points, with an extreme decline Of
5-8 for United States Steel, 1 to 2 for
related industrials, as much for cop
pers, oils, shippings and Industrial al
cohol and to for motors and Access
series. Rallies Of l to 3 points set
in during the second hour. Bonds
were irregular.
CLOSING-Steel and other leaders
were at highest prices in the after
noon but gains were generally shaded
in the final dealings. The closing was
firm.
Sales were estimated at 100000
shares.

INMATES OF JERSEY
JAIL IN A RIOT
Howl, Curse and Break Up Fur
nishingS in Cells

Trenton, Jan. Solver since
Governor Edge and his prison inquiry
commission left the state prison on
Saturday inmates Of the place have
kept UP q continual uproar which has
been increasing in violence until 1t
reached the proportions OF riot
yesterday.
While the convicts were hurting
their curses and missiles across the
prison Governor Edge was sending to
the senate last night the nomination
of James H. Mulheron, county sea]er
Of weights and measures, to succeed
Richard P. Hughes as head keeper.
The nomination will be acted upon
next week. Mulheron is chairman Of
the Mercer county republican COM
mittee.
Uneasy STRINGS were marked
among the prisoners Saturday even
ing. Sunday morning the irritation
had become general. Before chapel
loud shouts of discomfort and curses
against the authorities were shrieked
through the prison, but no concerted
uproar was begun until tho dinner
hour. Pea soup was the signal for
the initial outbreak: the men screamed
they wouldn't eat it, that it was Sun
day and they were entitled to chicken
broth.
Wanted Chicken Broth.
They wanted their chicken broth,
they yelled, and when none was
forthcoming they began stamping
their feet in unison. Then some one
smashed his stool against the wall
of his cell and began to drum with
violence with the broken pieces. This
became general. Others ratified tin
cups against the cell doors, and the
din, augmented by the prison yell,
reached the proportions of what is
known technically as bedlam.

QUESTIONS BANKS RIGHTS
Mass. Supreme Court Asked to Decide
Whether ShaWmut National Is Ex-
ceetling Its Charter Authority.

Boston, Jan. ~30.-The question
whether national banks in this state
may act as trustees, executors and adj
ministrators of estates and registrars
of stocks and bonds is involved in a
petition filed by Attorney General At
will with the supreme court, asking
that the National Shawmut bank of
this city be enjoined from acting in
that capacity on the ground that it is
violating its cnarter. The petition
was brought at the suggestion Of Will
liam D. T.. Trefry, commissioner Of
corporations.
The bank in it's answer, says it has
transacted such business under it's
charter and by authority of the fed
era1 reserve act, under which national
banks are authorized to act in the
capacities named when not in CONTRA
vention of state or local laws. The
petitioners set forth that state banking
laws limit the transaction of this bust
ness to trust companies.

ARE FATAL TO FIVE
Mother Unwittingly Puts Arsenic in
Flour and Kills Children and
Grandchild.

Kankakee, His, Jan. 30.-A meal
of pancakes hurriedly made and hur-
riedly eaten yesterday morning caused
the death of five members of the
Meintz family on a farm between
Ashkum an Danforth, fifteen miles
south Of here.
The pancakes were made by Mrs.
Meintz mother of four of the victims
and grandmother Of the fifth. Mrs.
Meintz is believed to have mixed the
contents of a sack containing an ar
senic preparation used by her hus-
band in taxidermy with a prepared
pancake flour, thinking the powder
was flour. Before dawn today the
last of the five deaths had occurred.
o. K Meintz, the father, was some
