HIGH PRICES SWELL
CREDIT 10 MILLIONS

The era OF high prices, attributable
to the war, and conditions II created,
has brought $4,000, ,OO0, 900 more money
into actual circulation, and has ex-
banded banking credit to more than
SIC 900. 100000.
Treasury" officials, reviewing these
figures today, in their latest study Of
credit problems. felt less alarm over
after-war initiation than in the tend
ency toward reduced production.
Officials announced that the III
nancial gains which may accrue from
the gradual liquidation Of credits now
in progress may be more than offset,
by the decline In the production OF
essentials in many lines. Shutting
down of mills in the textile and 9TH
err trades was considered a most dis
turbing factor in the general situa-
tion.
The policy OF the Federal Reserve
Board now is being directed toward
restoring a more normal relationship
between the volume of the country's
goods and the volume of money and
credits. The boards aim Is to see
production increased at greater
rate than credit Is expanded. The
program to liquidate non-essential
credits, officials explained, has been
to effect a normal and healthy liuul-
dation without Jcurtailing essential
production.
Shocks to industry have been care
fully avoided in the operation of the
policy outlined. Banks which arc
members OF the Federal reserve sys-
tenn have proceeded with the idea
that there shall be no disturbance to
legitimate business, in effecting a re-
duction in the currency expansion.
Control OF credit through higher
discount rates has been a marked sue
cess, Treasury officials stated. Liqui-
dation OF nonessential credits Is be-
ing brought about by gradual pro-
cess, as drastic steps in n too rapid
deflation, are recognized by officials
as harmful to business

"S|CK MAN" ROBS
DOCTOR OF $4,000
Patient" Jumps From Bed,
Knocks Out Physician With
Iron Bar Hid Under Pillow.

NEW YORK. Aug. 21.-"Playing
sick to rob the doctor" was the novel
game successfully played on DR.. Emil
+. Hartung, family physician to
Mayor Hylan of New York. He lost
$4,000 in jcwelry and cash.
When DR.. Hartung. locked in the
room of an alleged patient and tied
hand and foot to the post of the sick
mans" bed, recovered consciousness,
he told his story to the police, sum
moned after the doctors shouts had
caused people in the house to break
open the door.
The last thing DR.. Hartung remem-
bers Is that he bent down over his
patient" to examine his heart and,
looking up. faced the muzzle OF re-
volver in the hand OF a masked man.
As he started to battle the latter, the
sick man" jumped from his bed and
knocked the physician unconscious
with an iron bar he had concealed un-
der his pillow.
The patient" had given the name
of Harris and the doctor had attended
him twice during the past week.

WH|SKEY RUNNERS
Two Alleged BootIeggers Held
For Death of R. R. Detective
In West Virginia.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Aug. 21.-
Whiskey runners operating in South
west Virginia are held responsible for
the death of Robert McLane, special
agent of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad, who died Thursday in the
railroad hospital. at Huntington, w.
Va. McLane was shot three times
by alleged trespassers on the rail-
roads property, one bullet taking ef-
hospital he never regained conscious
ness and was never able to tell in
cidents leading to his death.
For a period Of time extending al
most to the date of nation wide pro-
hibition, whiskey runners have been
acive on branch lines of railroads in
this section of the State and detectives
of the road have risked their lives
in attempting to run them down, ac-
cording to George Lenz, chief special
agent of the Chesapeake and Ohio.
In sending his men to apprehend
violators, Lenz said he is forced to use
the utmost caution to prevent his
force from being wiped out, because
of the lawlessness with which the
band of runners operates.
A few days preceding the death Of
McLane, Chief Lenz received numerous
ICpoI VI DootlSBS gers uslHs lTtlB III
traiRs to bring their product to
market. The scene of the most notice
able violations was on the Guyan
Valley branch, which runs from Hunt
ington, says Lenz. McLane and two
fellow detectives were dispatched to
Salt Rock and the night after they
arrived they saw two men tampering
with the air tubes of a moving freight
train. The train slowed down and
the men jumped off. carrying a filled
sack, belived to have contained moon
shine whiskey.
McLane ordered them to halt, and
when he seized one of the men by the
arm the other drew revolver and
fired four times in quick succession,
three of the bullets taking effect. Nc
Lanes companions also fred. but their
bullets missed the men and they es-
capped. ..H.
Chief Lenz ordered a dragnet sbread
in the tristate region! AS a result
two brothers, A. o. Walker. nineteen,
and Dick Walker, twenty.four were
arrested Wednesday in Catlettburg,
Ky- and transferred to this State.
The prisonrs, however continue to
assert their innocence. t
Funeral services for McI.ane were
conducted here yesterday afternoon.
Special trains brought hundreds from
all esctions of the Eastern division
OF the railroad to attend the funeral.

legislature when he was only twen-
ty-two years old" .-
And as proof Of her conviction that
her sons vote could not have been
influenced by money, Mrs. Burn point
ed to the fact that he is president of
the Bank of Niota, vice president of
the Crescent Hosiery Mills, of Niota,
and secretary-treasurer of the Niota
Development Association.
SEES PURER POLITICS.
Asked how she came to be inter-
ested in suffrage, Mrs. Burn said:
81 believe it is just matter of
rights. II have taken very little in
terest in the campaign and don't
know the principal suffrage leaders.
But l did know that the contest was
on in the Tennessee legislature and
i just kept hoping and praying that
Harry would vote aye. | thought all
the time that he would vote for lit,
although he had never told me def
nitely just how he intended to vote.
"I think suffrage will purify poll
tics, and l am for progress. l have
hired hands on my farm right here
who pay no taxes, yet they are per-
mitted to vote. But / do pay taxes
and have not had any hand in my
country's affairs.
Il don't think any one over there
at Nashville was better posted on
suffrage than Harry. When he is
home he spends most OF his spare
time at nights up in his room read
ing till near midnight" And Mrs.
Burn proceeded to name thirty-fivc
magazines to which she said her son
subscribed.
Harry always wanted to be a
public man and for that reason al
ways kept reading about public af-
fairs. In fact his ambitions were so
high that his classmates in school
nicknamed him President and some
of them still call him that"
WANTS NIOTA DEVELOPED.
Congressman Burn is relief agent
for the Southern Railway, in addi-
ton to holding the state office In
filing out Burns QUESTIONABLE for
the seletcive draft in the war. an of
ficial of the railroad wrote this en-
dorsement on it, He is the only
man on the road than can fill one and
all jobs"
Representative Burns father was
for thirty years the station master at
Niota. ..-
Harry takes great pride in the de-
velopment of Niota,' continued Mrs.
Burn. He has spent much time try
ing to work out improvements. When
he was a small boy he used to day
dream of the future Niota, OF build
ings he would like to see TAX ethe
place of old ones. Now he is begin
ming to realize his dreams"
On the farm with Mrs. Burn are a
younger son. James, who manages and
farms the 400 acres, and a still young
err sister. The eleven-room house,
standing on knoll amid tall trees,
has often been likened to Mount Ver-

COX HAS PLENTY OF
AMMUNITION LEFT
Nominee Declares He Has
Enough Campaign Material
To Last Till November.

EN- ROUTE WITH GOVERNOR cox,
Aug. 21.-Amused by reports from
Marion that Republican leaders expect
him to exhaust his ammunition before
the campaign is half over, Gov. James
NJ. Cox, Democratic candidate for
President. left Columbus at $40 this
morning for Orrville and Canton,
promising that there would be no let
up" in the two speeches he will de-
liver today. '....
'T have plenty Of material to last
me till November, so there is no need
for worry" said the governor laugh
ingly. in fact, my only regret Is
that we may not be able to crowd in
enough speaking dates to enable me
to use it most effectively"
In this connection 1T was pointed
out today that when Senator Harrison
conferred with Governor Cox on plans
for the Western stumping tour in Sep
tember, the governor, after looking
over the tentative schedules, objected
to the small number of speeches 1t
called for.
you've got me down for only three
speeches a day, Senator" he said.
when I campaign in Ohio I'm accus-
toned to make at least Ave or six a
day, and often I've made as high as
ten" Whereupon the schedule was
changed.
The first speech today was at Orr
VILE. shortly after noon. The orig
inal plan was for the governor to
make but a brief address there be-
tween trains, but this was modified,
and arrangements were made for the
governors party to go by automobile
from Orrville to Canton, where the
evening speech will be delivered as
the main event of a Cox day" cele-
bration.
