Frost Got Big Share
Of Electric Boat Bonus
Testifies That Sl3O,0OO of
100000 Fund Went
To Him

NEWARK, N. j., April 3o.-Elihu B
Frost, Of New York, who is suing to
have Henry Il. Carse ousted as voting
trustee Of the Electric Boat Company,
under cross-exarnination in Vice-Chan-
cellor Lanes court to-day testified
that his share of q bonus Of 100000
which was paid out on December 81,
l915, amounted to $4,000 He regis
tered complaint, he said, against his
share because he thought he was en-
titled to more, as he kept the company
going from infancy, and that it was
through his efforts that it was able to
live until the prosperous days of the
war arrived. He told the court he was
made an additional allowance Of S10,-
900, which was paid to another direc-
tor. According TO Frost Mr.. Carse
received $4,000 of the bonus.
Vice Chancellor Lane asked Frost If,
when Carse was getting his bonus, it
was not taken into consideration that
he had paid out $4,000 which it was
alleged in Frost's testimony yesterday
had been paid to Malcolm Rose McAdoo,
brother Of William G. McAdoe. Frost
said it was

that the $4,000 bonus paid to Carse
was not justified ?" asked the vice.

Business Money

AS yesterday was the last day of the
month, bankers took little interest in
the commercial paper market. They
were occupied with other matters.
General business has been improving
III the last few weeks, but this i'm
provement has not yet been reflected
IN an increased demand for money.
II anything, the demand has actually
fallen off. A sidelight on conditions
IN some lines was furnished by an in
cldent yesterday. A commercial paper
broker notified a client that he could
borrow for him on a basis Of 5J4 per
cent The client replied that he would
not be interested even at 5 per cent.
he could not use the money. All his
bills are. paid up to July /.
is quite generally agreed that
there is an easier tendency in the
market. Several New York banks still tin
refuse to buy any notes under n per
cent, and several brokers quote the
market at ga to u, saying that only
prime names of short maturity com
mand the lower figure. Others assert
that the broadest market is at 5A
per cent, and that they have even sold
occasional notes in New York at !
per cent. The market is still mainly
out OF town. The scarcity of paper con-
tlnues. Brokers complain that notes
sold cannot be replaced with new ones,
Acceptance dealers found great dif
hculty in disposing of bills yesterday
and in general blamed the poor de-
mand on the call money rate, which
rose from 5% to 6 per cent. So long
as that rate remains so high, and a
violently active stock market continues
to give employment to bank funds in
this manner, the position of the ac-
ceptance market is expected to remain
unsatisfactory. But few dealers dis
covered notable improvement in the
new bills coming out. They were able
to make satisfactory purchases Of

Christ power or else our ministry will
be failure The conference of the

church should fail to do the work as
signed the whole church is weakened.
Our purpose in coming here as ministers

hearts with the power Of the Spirit that
we cannot fail. Let us go home from
here and take mp our tasks with renewed
interest and vigor and then when the
roll is called next June, this st, Adams

signed The conference closed with an

ceived new power of the Spirit.
