Franz measured Sherman Cody with
his gray eyes and Sherman, with an
almost mischievOus smile lurking at
the corners of his mouth, extended
his hand towards Detroit's ace of
burglars, according to the police ac-
count of the meeting.
Franz, you have got her, and I'm
glad of it," Sherman is quoted as

LIBERTY BONDS F|RMER,
OTHER ISSUES QUIET

NEW YORK. October 20 (Special).-
Much interest was taken today in
the prediction made by the Secretary
of the Treasury that the greater part
of the outstanding liberty bonds will
In the near future work up toward
par and perhaps go to premium be-
fore their maturity. This statement
was made in explaining the official
attitude of disapproval toward the
proposition to refund liberty bonds
at higher interest rate in order to
raise their market prices 1t could
not be said, however, that the Secre-
tary's optimism was reflected in the
immediate trading. The various lib
erty issues were a shade higher but
that was all. Other government bonds
were very little changed. The Swiss
government IS were off a fraction, at
1.03A while the Belgian 7hs were a
unchanged. at 57A. the French IS
sold around 1.02. while the City of
Paris IS were in better demand, at 95.
Rail Issues Slow.
There were few changes of conse-
quence in the railway bond division.
Trading in this quarter reflected the
lessened activity in the market for
railway stocks. The real feature, as
has been the case for several days
past, was the public utility group. The
marlborough Rapid Transit SIS got
across SIS on active trading. The Third
Avenue adjustment 5s went into new

STOCK LIST DULL,
VALUESSTEAD|ER
BY STUART F. WEST.

NEW YORK. October 20 Especially.
The markets were inclined to take
proceedings in the British parlia-
ment. which were only imperfectly
known at the close of business last
night. The share list, with very few
exceptions. started in strong and
continued to gain ground consistently.
especially in the industrial shares.
which have been favored recently by
spectators for the decline Stocks In
which London is most interested we're
conspicuously strong. and British gov
eminent bonds. which were heavily
sold yesterday, were improved per-
ceptibly. Recovery continued in both
sterling exchange and in cotton OPP
been hardest hit by the coal tie-up
with it's threat of serious conse-
quences to British trade.
These several movements reflected
the opinion. based on the overnight
news dispatches, that the prospects
were favorable for an early compro-
mise with the coal miners.
There were no developments other
than the speeches in the English par
Lament that bore upon the stock
market of the day. If stocks moved
ahead more confidently than they
have for some time it was because
of the further proof given in the last
lew days OF the thoroughly Soio-oue
&C ndition now existing in Wall street.
No Real Liquidation.
Real liquidation ceased some time
ago. leaving a heavy short interest
without the means to cover its con-
tracts at anything like the low-price
levels.
For the last fortnight or more these
short sellers have been trying to gel
under cover as gracefully as possible
and they have been trying to concea
their efforts to buy the general list by
offering down special stocks, winch

thought to be vulnerable. There was
only one soft spot that bear traders
could bring out today and tins, was

where. this hardly will affect the
earnings of International Paper 1ol
some time to come. but the speculative
element did not appreciate tins fae'
in it's operations in the stock today.

PESETA RATIO HANDICAP.
Spanish Merchants Fear Its Eff
feet on u. S. Trade.

MADRID. October Gothic exchange
rate of approximately seven pcsetas for
a dollar has begun to have A marked
impression in Spain. The merchants Of
this country are coming rapidly to the
conclusion that the depression in the
value of the pcseta. which threatens to
continue, will have a disastrous effect
on trading with the United States.
Asa matter of fact, reports from va
rious industrial centers indicate de-
cline in transactions. and in number
of cases intending importers have given
notice f cancellation of orders, while
others are considering similar action.
With the exception of the Britisl
whose money also has been creeping
steadily toward par on the Spanish mar
ket, most of the markets of Europe are
still advantageous to Spain.

DETROIT. Mich. October 2n.-Dis-
solution of the King Motor Company
of Detroit and appointment of "A re-
ceiver to take over the affairs of the

filed in the Wayne county circuit
court here by the directors of the con-

action was asked because of the in

personal attention to the affairs of

capital was lacking.
The petition listed the company's
assets at S1.S35,772, and its liabilities
at S1.097,070. The court was asked to
