gardeners or extravagant gamblers.
 On being questioned the men ad- mitted that the Rumanian currency had been disposed of through Russians and Rumanians, who infest the cafes and spectators haunts in the vicinity of the railway stations of Berlin.
 The men experienced heavy losses in disposing of the 1000 lei notes for spectators would only pay 250 marks for them and they also claim that they are no longer in possession of any of the 6O,O00,0O0 fund notes.
 The origin of the Rumanian money $ not yet explained, but at the time of tho robbery it was stated it comprised the German army treasure which was transported back from Rumania.
 A Berlin afternoon paper states that the money twas printed in Ger many and destined for the use of Mackensen in his Rumanian campa ign"
 The robbery took place at the fam ouS Julius tower at Spandau where the German war treasure was stored. The names of the four men who have been arrested in connection with the flair are Kuhn, Wenta, ElsSner and 'eschages. The first named is said to ,c the leading spirit of the quartet md he and Elssner quietly retired in- 70 the country on their respective shares of the robbery.
 It was through Peschges who, hav- ing spent his share of the robbery in riotous living and was subsequently, arrested on q charge of burglary that the whole affair came to light. The police caught Wenta just as he was about to emigrate with his family.

NEW YORK LANDLORDS
CONTINUE THEIR GOUG|NC
State Rent Laws, Ineffective, Have
Not Deferred Them From Profit
ccrlng OH Tenants.
TBy Associated Press.

NEW YORK. July 1.-THE new
State rent laws are In effect and have
not deferred proitecring landlords
from continuing rent-Bouging as
saults on thousands OF tenants In
New York City. according to Leo
Kenneth Mayer. chief counsel for the
Mayors committee on rent profiteer-
ing.
The landlords arc adopting divers
methods TO c~ircumvcnt the new laws.
Mr.. Mayer declared. and have been
successful to q certain extent.
The three chief lodges employed
by the landlords as outlined By Coun-
Sci Mayer are to:
Molly tenants that their leases will
not be renewed unless they are WILL
they roiuse to meet this increase the
cnants are then ousted by due pro-
cess Of the law
Notify tenants that tho premises
plan, but offer to sell them the apart
mcnt. II they Will u the exorbItant
sum asked.
Show Il higher valuation on their
property by, in~t:rtrnnsrer Of property
through alleged sales and thus be
able 20 extract u higher rental.
The first method, according to Mr..
Mayer. ls the most popular. but .s
rather slow. as IL takes grom one
month To n ear to legally evict Il
tenant.
rho cooperative selling plan. he
declared. vas one OF the new inycn-
tons of the landlords 10 exploit the
tenant.
The transferring o, property on the
prctensc OF making a bona ildc sale
and thus increasing the valuation OF
lodges. Mr.. Mayer explained. By this
method the landlord sells" to a
relative or business partner. then
buys" the property back again and
thus runs up the valuation. which
will command a higher rental undo
the state avs.
Tho. entire legal staff Of the rent
committee has be.n placed ut the
disposal OF tenants In their light
against the rent profltccr: Landlords
h are inclined TO be fair arc meet
Ing Thea tenants In the Offices OF the
leases with their tenants on definite
The rent committee, which has been
In operation for fifteen months. has
handled more than $4,000 cases, OF
which $4,000 have been settled in and
5000 are listed as hopeless and no
settlement Is possible.
There L. "A constant flood OF COM

Decline OF Liberty Bonds

'NNi'hc vi itutttS I>uUuS
THAT there is growing uneasiness on the
= part OF the investor over the depressed
value Of government war bonds upon tho
financial market is too well known TO need
Nearly 1000. 900 Americans
are holders Of these bonds. They were
purchased with savings and daily earnings
IN order that their government might be
financed in carrying on Il life-and-death war
with At the time these pur-
chases were made. the purchasers we're
given the guarantee OF the government that
the face value of the bonds would be main
tanned in so far as ii might be possible to
maintain it.
That contract has not been kept. Ger
tain of the longer-tcrm bonds are now sell
ing for something like Sc cents on the
dollar, which means that every holder OF
Il bond for which lie paid $10O is poten-
TALLY Sli out of pocket at this moment.
Nor is the machinery created by the gov
eminent for Keeping up the market value
Of the war securities functioning. "A great
sinking fund was provided for--on paper
from which purchases OF bonds at par
were To be made at q rate OF something
Ike $4,000, 900 AT a time. This fund is
not accomplishing the result expected of
1t for the simple reason that 1t does not
exist. There is no money in The Treasury
10 provide for II sinking fund account. Tho
expenditures are too great.
With the political conventions now over
and the country advised as to the respective
policies TO which each OF the two parties
Is committed, there is a feeling Of opti-
mism that has displayed itself in a sub
siantial laliy in the stock market. Especial
- has this strength manifested itself since
adjournment of the San Francisco convcn-
i!on. Tie presentation OF the Democratic
program evidently meets with the approval
or the sound sentiment which is the sus-
tanning power Of public credit. hence the
rejection OF underlying confidence in the
future, which may be expected to strengthen
the securities market. In the resultant
s0undiy based activity. it may be reasonably
inferred that Liberty bond prices will he
A!i nnathctically influenced, but aside from
these anticipated slight gains, there is small
prospect OF any substantial reaction from
their present depressed values until In.
government adopts some oxpedient- for
stimulating interest in them. Just how
this is to be accomplished. is a problem
~ the government, 10 solve; yet il Is one
y which it is in honor bound TO address
itself. II 1t proposes to keep faith with the
investors who came TO its rescue in The
