Crucfble Steel.

Those operators responsible for the
market action of Crucible Steel added
another feather to their caps yester-
day and another day Of horror for the
shorts by singing an point advance
in that stock at yesterdays opening
On Wednesday Crucible closed at 1851
the bid price, and there were no offers
for 1t. Offers were withheld also at
yesterdays opening and the bull crowd
in Crucible had a sheaf OF buying
orders amounting to 500 shares. The
trade was made at 1872. Later Crucible
ran up to 15. but dropped below 100
IN subsequent profit taking. The run
IN OF the shorts was not accompanied
by any sort OF news. In fact, news
factors were not necessary. It was
just squeeze of the shorts, who,
stampeded. did the rest themselves.
Hanging over Crucible, Of course, is
the knowledge that Its directors may
pay another so per cent. stock dividend
at any time in their discretion It IS
said that at the company's current
earning rates II VIII be able to main
tain the So dividend on its new stock
as well as on it's old stock. Current
gossip is to the effect that one OF the
corporations directors has strengthened
in the last few weeks his holdings OF
Crucible some 5000 shares.

How Far VIII tho Decline Runs

Streets job to pick the end of this
trend and the time when stocks will

the consensus Is that the down swing

ventories are shrinking rapidly and
making some corporation accounts look
distinctly bad. Some dividends are
doubtless in danger. But whether the
market in Its decline has discounted
that factor is another question.

Rumors are rife that Semet-Sol-
way stockholders are not keenly
enthusiastic about the recent trans
action in which General Chemical.
emet-Solvay, Barrett and National
Aniline-Chemical were merged Into
the Allied Chemical and Dye Corpo-
ration. Most OF those disappointed ones
express the belief that some sort of n
distribution Of profits should have been
made by Semet-Solvay before going into
the merger. That dissatisfaction, how
ever. has not reached the protest stage
and probably never viii, because the

An Anchor to windwnrd.

According to the belief of the head of
q large bond house, the extraordinary
demand for safe and sane bonds OF all
sorts. which has increased day by day
during the last month, is the anchor to
windward that thousands Of people are
putting out to protect themselves against
eventualities in the Industrial readjust-
ment of the country. Most of those
securities, of course, are bought and
paid for with cash. and are going di-
rectly into safe deposit boxes. One
dealer declares that small denomination
bonds are in particular demand 1t is
the theory that much of the money be-
ing brought to market by the sale OF
industrial stocks is going directly into
gilt edged bonds.

Many Red Cross Workers in Field
 Despite Peace

Washington, Mar. 3.-Although American Red Cross relief work overseas is diminishing as rapidly as consistent with the obligations of humanity, more than 1000 trained workers remain in the field, fighting disease and starvation in areas as yet unable to help themselves.
 Officially summarizing the situa- ton, Lieut.. Col. Robert E. Olds, Red Cross commissi orler for Europe re- ported today to national headquar- ters here that aggressive and con- tinuing relief measures still were demanded by widespread suffering in Poland, the Baltic states and south Sussia. He expressed conviction that from now on the Russian prob lem would be a most vital one. All energy is being used to get relief supplies to satisfactory bases in the Baltic and Black seas regions, while the unit assigned to the Baltic states is being increased in personnel from 54 to 70. Steps also are being talk en at Constantinople to organize fur ther relief measures in behalf of the fefugeeS or south RuSSla.
 Of the total American personnel a large number are stationed in France, conducting headquarters operations. principally in connection with relief supplies and their transportation The personnel attached to the various commissions operating under direc- tion from Paris total as follows: France, 2s; Albania, 65; Czecho-Slo- vakia, 8; Greece, 5; Italy, 20; Mon- tcnegro, A; Poland, 131; Rumana 29; Serbia, 96; West Russia, 54; South Russia, 25; England, 5; Vien- na, 12.
 An outline of how the American Red Cross is fulfilling its mission was given by Colonel Olds as fol- lows:
 "The character of the work in the Balkans is changing from emergency relief to medical service and assist ing those peoples in erecting their own relief machinery. To meet the terrible crisis that has developed in Vienna S1,200.00o worth of relief supplies has already been given. In Italy the work is confined to Red Cross home service in behalf of the families of men who served with the American army and Americans who served in the Italian army who are trying to return to this country.
 The most extensive present work is that in Poland where. in cooper ation with the league of Red Cross societies, the American Red Cross is striving to check the spread of ty- phus and care for the pennless refu- gees that are pouring back into their homeland. To Czecho-S -Slovakia nurs- es are assigned to help establish a national nurse-training system and the Czecho-Slovak Red Cross is being assisted in distributing 130 carloads of relief supplies sent in by the American society last summer. Work for the French is still extensive but diminishing"
 In addition to the major projects there are nearly score of actiyi- ties conducted in behalf of the war worn children of European countries by the Junior Red Cross, supported by the 14,o00,000 American school children that are members.

Fight to Deprive Former K Kaiser of
 Property Begun

Berlin, Tuesday, Mar. 2.-The fight to deprive the former emperor of his properties and fortune began in earnest today when the motion of the majority socialists of the Diet took the measure to the national assembly, precipitated an accrimon- ous debate. The majority socials vied with the independents in de- nouncing the former ruler in an eff fort to defeat the proposed settle ment by accomplishing the confisca- tion of the Hohenzollern possessions. This would be done through amend- ment voting the former emperor a fixed sum.
 Deputy Graft, majority socialist. declared that the ex-ruler had failed to live up to the historic precedent of his race. He had not died at the head of his troops. He chose in- stead, the deputy said, midnight flight to Holland where "he now is promenading and saving wood.'
 He expressed doubt as to whether the former emperor had subscribed to war loans, as had been claimed while his claims that he had been the guardian of peace had been dispos- ed his continuous rattling of swords and proclamations of the mailed fist. The democratics and the clerical side in voting for the governments measure providing that the settlement be referred to the committee of judiciary
 The judiciary committee now has the bill under advisement and confer snces are expected to last many weeks.
 The motion of the majority social ists providing for action by the na- tional assembly has been temporarily tabled
