Held Up By Robbers.

OuIlIS IilS ldlCSA pdA U O1 lcioI WOCN e hold-up occurred between St. Johns and Springerville. A tourist car headed to- ward St. Johns held up between the "A ranch and the Cienega by one Oscar Schultz and boy named Cleve Olsen.
 As the car reached a certain point the two robbers commanded them to halt the car sped on then Schultz fired two shots at it which just missed woman in the car, this caused the man a. the wheel to stop the car, and the rObber then demanded his money, which the tourist handed over, amounting to $4 or S5. He was then allowed to proceed on his journey. He came to St. Johns and reported the matter to the sheriff who immediately put his deputies Mi neer and Saffell on the trail and sheriff Hamblin, having been informed that the robbers were headed for the Long H. ranch, went out there to head them off.
 The deputies followed the trail to the Alma Davis ranch about six miles East of St. Johns, where they found the two robbers. They commanded them to throw up their hands the boy complied but the man went into the house with a 1 bucket of water which he was carrying and set the bucket down and picked up cul, and took a drink of water, altho bullets were coming through the house, he then went out through door on the East side of the house and made get away and also persuaded the boy to go with him, but they were obliged to leave their horse and camp outfit
 After this skirmish the deputies came to town for fresh mounts. The next morning accompanied by sheriff Ham, blin they again took the trail. The second day out they run into the man very unexpectedly, altho they knew the trail was warm. While mounting a little raise close to wire fence, the man stepped out from behind tree and with Ieveled gun demanded the posse to put up their hands. The sudden ap- pearance of the man frightened the horses and they turned and started to run away, except Mir. Hamblin's, it started to pitching. and by the time the posse gathered themselves up the fellow ! had slipped under the fence and down ! into a wash, the bank of which sheltered him from the fire of the officers, who had to go about 100 yards before they could get to shoot at him. Some eight shots were fired at him, but apparently none took effect, as he managed to get into rocks and away. The boy was cap tured
 The sheriff and his deputies came in- to town again, and the next morning deputies Mineer and Saffell accompanied bv Milford Hamblin left in automobile to again take up the trail.
 In the meantime the robber went to Gallegos ranch out near the Arizona New Mexico state line. He fell in with a rancher and rode with him in an auto to Quemado or until they struck the highway, he then proceeded to make rancher take him to point where he wanted to get off, at this place he dis appeared into the hills after telling the rancher that he might go back.
 It is thought that he is making for his ranch near Nutrioso.
 The posse are still hot on his trail anC are determided to land their man.
 LATER-Mr. Marley and MT. Pitmar arrived this morning (Friday) witf i Oscar Schultz. The posse are still out hunting for him.

 It was reported last week that 1 attempted to charge a gentle man sixty-nine dollars car fare from St. Johns to Holbpook. 1 would just say for the Benefit of those who have been misinform- ed that I never did charge any 1 body over $25. .OO dollars for that trip. So the fellow who started that report was just wiIfuIly mistaken.

WAVE OF PRICE-SLASHING
 SWEEPS OVER COUNTRY
By Simply Not Buying at Extreme Prices Public Did for Them selves What Government Could Not Do for
 Them.

Them.
 A wave of price cutting swept over the country, beginning last week. It was mainly in clOthinfi and dry goods. Other lines were more or less affected, food the least. Even dentists in Omaha reduced charges. Texas report ed SIP shoes down to $5.85. In thousands of stores cuts were made.
 This good beginning at lower prices came about in just the way which Current Events said months ago was the only way. The people stopped looking to law and government to help them and began to help themselves. They might have done so in the first place. Buying at the high p,ices was partly stopped, and then quickly prices began to fall. It WIS unreasonable to expect dealers to Sell goods at low prices as long as the public eagerly took the good at high prices.
 But after all the real need is more production, large supply of goods, Merely to cut prices without increasing the supply might do harm, by causing people to buy more than they need, and so ceating a new and worse short age.
 A big department store in New York, with a large stock of goods first became frightened at the failing demand, and cut it's prices Others followed sui:. and in few days the price-cutting mania" spread to all sections of the coun- try.
 MANUFACTURERS APPLAUD
 It was not only in the retai trade. The National Association of Manufacturers, in convention at New York, voted unanimously their approval of the price-slash- ing movement and urged mer- chants to join it. Such a move ment was necessary, they said, to get business back to a healthier condition, after long fever and delirious buying. This association represents about $500 of the prin- cipal manufactures. They em- ploy six million persons and pro- duce three-fourths of the manu- factured goods made in the Unit ed States. Individual members promised cuts of 15 to p per cent ip September, when the next whole sale season begins.
 THIS IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT
 At Springfield, Mass, dele gates to the Massachusetts State Federation of Women's Clubs voted not to buy food, clothing or gasolene in excess of needs.

3Y REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Oct 22. - The stock market again rose and fell mostly within a contracted area today, the aimless drift of prices and light deal ings expressing the further indecision of traders in the absence of definite factors.
 Grains predominated among the usual leaders, however, until the final hour when the rate for demand loans suddenly rose to 10 per cent, the maxi mum of the week, on the withdrawal of funds by local and interbanks.
 Despite the late reaction a few stocks, such as Canadian Pacific, Utah Copper, Studebaker, Mexican Pc troleum and United Fruit, registered net gains extending from one to six and half points. Losses among the industrial leaders, notably steels, equipments and food specialties, were limited to fractions. Sales amounted to 425,OO0 shares.
 Apart from the money furry, which seemed to be regarded as temporary incident, most of the days develop ments were of an encouraging char iacter. Favorable differences were drawn from the deadlock in the Brit ish industrial situation, and the views of Chairman Gary respecting steel trade pospects were helpful to shares of that character.
 Tho success of the S25 OOO OOO loan to Denmark, offered by local banking interests and indications of extensive accumulations of high grade bonds bore further testimony to the stabili- ! ty of the investment market Moderate recoveries in the foreign exchange market, particularly the Brit ish rates resulted primaily, according to deales, from relaxation of recent pressure caused by extensive offerings of grain and cotton bills.
 Usual leaders in the bond market were overshadowed in. speculative in terests by the new foreign flotations.
 Interborough issues lost some of their recent advances, Liberties were srre- gular and most other domestic rails and industrials eased slightly. Total sales, par value, were $16,- 475,O00 Old United States DonGs were unchanged on call.

DUN'S WEEKLY REPORT

NEW YORK, Oct. 22. Dun's to- morrow will say:
 Widening of the scope or ine eco homie readjustment which began some time ago is unmistakably reflected in reports from practically every industry of importance and in the different sta tistical barometers that indicate the trend of conditions. After period of unprecedented expansion and infla- tion. due to unnatural stimulus. busi- ness is now experiencing the inevita- ble reaction, with varying degrees of unsettlement and embarrassment ac- companying the transition. From the abnormally low levels of last year, fail ures have risen abruptly in both num- Der and magnitude. Skepticism as to tho gonuincness of the downward has been dispelled by the and rapid yielding of many markets.

BATTLED OVER PIPE ORGAN
Its Introduction Into Scottish Church,
for Which James Watt Was Re.
sponsibIe, Made Trouble.

The current appreciations of James
Watt, inventor of the steam engine,
have not, so far as we have seen, called
forth. any protest from the Wee Frees.
Yet Watt was responsible for the
first pipe organ built in Scotland, and
round 1t ragged one of the fiercest con-
troversies in the history of the move
ment against instrumental music in
the Scottish church.
The story Of the organ itself was
told fully when the instrument was
given year ago to the Glasgow cor
pOration. 1t was built by Watt in his
house in High street In 1862. and In
1907 found its way into st. Andrews
church. Glasgow. On hearing that the
organ was to be played during divine
service. the lord provost of the day
wrote to DR.. Ritchie. minister of the
church. and an enthusiastic fiddler.
begging to know of him if such was
really the case." and adding that, If
so. he would consider 1t his duty to
enter solemn protest against him
and the congregation for all damages
which might be the consequence. DR.
Ritchie was also held personally re-
sponsible for "any breach Of the peace
which might possibly be occasioned by
the innovation he had attempted to
introduce"
After being used for one Sunday,
the organ was closed by command Of
the Presbytery; and then the floods
OF controversy were let loose. The
friends of music" were fOrcible, If not
very polite. in a series Of pamphlets
Both sides, of course, quoted Scripture
freely; and in Presbytery minute the
writer of the pro-organ pamphlets was
convicted of "culpable inaccuracy and
scandalOus violation of the truth"
History, so far as we know, does not
record what Watt thought of it all.
The old organ is now the property
of Glasgow corporation and stands in
the Central hall of the Kelven-Grove
galleries.
