67.9l2 Subscribers
Want S488, 100000
OF Phone Co. Bonds
Application for Even the
Smaller Denominations
Are Allotted at 20 p. c.:
Is Record in Financing

The magnitude of the response of
American investors to the new offer
Ing Of s50,Ooo,0oo of New York Tele-
rhone s per cent bonds was revealed
Yesterday when the official figures were
made public, showing an aggregate of
Subscriptions of more than S48S,o0o,-
eOo. ]. P. Morgan & Co., the syndicate
managers, in letter sent out to syndi-
cate members last night, announced
that individual subscriptions totaled
s7.9l2, of which 54,21S were each for
$1,000 bonds or less, amounting to
more than $4,000, 900. Of this figure
95,452 subscriptions were for $1,000
bonds or less, or a total of S22, 100000.
Owing to the huge oversubscription of
the issue, which sets a new record in
corporate financing, the bankers have
been forced to scale down all sub
scriptions, and even applications for
$1,000 bonds or less have not been
slotted in full.
The basis on which allotments have
been made follows: Subscriptions for
500 to $4,000, 20 per cent, with a
minimum Of S100; subscriptions $4,000
to $4,000, 10 per cent, with g. mini
mum of $500; subscriptions in excess of
$4,000, per cent, with minimum
of s7,50O.
Since Monday, the day the Offering
was made informally, the bankers have
been deluged with subscriptions. Many
houses, expecting a large oversubscrip
ton, padded" their applications in
hopes of getting somewhere near the
amount of bonds sought. This was
responsible in large part for the record
breaking total of subscriptions rolled
up. 1t was pointed out yesterday that
had there not been so much padding"
Of applications subscribers would prob
ably have Jared much better than is
the case on the basis of allotments an
nounced. One of the striking features
Of the allotment is that the bankers
were unable to follow their usual Gus
tom Of fling subscriptions of $1,000 or
less in full.

Broker Held in Tombs
I'm Embezzlement Case
Thomas +. Lamon Arrested ON
Advices From Chicago; Chill
yers Refuses Aid

Thomas F. Lamon, forty years old,
broker with Offices at 1 Wall Street,
was ordered held without bail after
his arraignment before Magistrate
Simpson in Tombs Court yesterday
afternoon, on charge of suspicion of
being fugitive from justice.
The broker, who lives at 400 River
side Drive, was arrested earlier in the
day by Detectives Mayer and Brown
or on receipt Of telegraphic request
from District Attorney Robert E.
the arrest said Lamon was wanted
there in Connection with the alleged
embezzlement of $4,000 from the J,
Frank Stacco Oil Company.
Details concerning the alleged EN-
ppezzlement were not given, and Mr..
Lamon late yesterday told reporters
that he himself was as much mystified
as the police.
After being taken to the Tombs the
broker communicated with William
Chilvers, an attorney who is assisting
former Governor Charles S. Whitman
in the police inquiry, and asked that
Mr. Chllvers take charge of his de-
tense. The attorney refused to do so.
saying that being an assistant to for
mer Governor Whitman prevented him.
Mr.. Chilvers said last night that he
knew very little about the broker. ex-
cept that he recently lived in Chicago.
he was unable to give any information
the case. SO far as could
be ascertained last night, Mr.. Lamon
had not obtained counsel. 1t is under
stood here that the broker was for
merly connected with the J. Frank
Stacco Company, of Chicago, but in
what capacity could not be learned.

ing the Debated" American protest it
cannot be said that the japanese press
had discussed the American note in a
Jingoiatic, aggressive tone, but appar-
emily had looked at the matter from
the American standpoint as well as
the Japanese.
This newspaper calls attention to
the position of the Japanese Foreign
Office in meeting the American claim
with a steady refusal to accept the
matter as an issue between Japan and
the United States and with an equally
steady insistence that the issue was
ono between the United States and the
powers which first pledged their sup
port to Japans claim to all the Ger
man islands north of the equator and
later, when the mandate idea came
into being, handed over the Island of
zap to the jurisdiction of Japan.
The Times says it understands
Japan will not issue any particular de-
fense Of her position, but will rely
upon. the publication OF the CORE
spondence to make Japans case clear

pies IN behalf of the Japanese Exclu-
sion League Of California.
Mr.. McClatchy urged Japanese cx-
cluslon as necessary in the interests
of the nation" and declared that Cali
ffornia was under grave menace from
Japanese penetration. Other states
he said, already have learned the un-
wisdom OF permitting any foreign ma
tions, however friendly, to be the sole
judge Of what immigration should be
admitted to the United States.
Although unprepared to give specific
recommendation to the committee for
use in framing permanent legislation
Mr. McClatchy particularly requested
that provision be made to prevent the
Federal government in the exercise of
it's treatymaking powers from en-
croaching upon "statcs' rights" and
multiplying laws for control of lands, OF
even affecting the sale or lease OF
properties to aliens ineligible for citi-
zenship.
The only exemption in the matter Of
Japanese Immigration, the witness
said should be permission for tempo
rary residence for tourists, students,
artists, commercial men and teachers.
For the Japanese legally entitled to
residence in the United States he asked
fair treatment in protecting their prop
erty rights legally acquired.

bel4inger was one Of party of
freshmen which is said to have taken
Smimmo, sophomore, in an automo-,

to cut his hair, as punishment for
tantalizing tactics said to have been
tried repeatedly by smimmo against
freshmen. Smimmo struck as he was
being removed from the car. He was
at once disarmed and then the students
cut and shaved his head and padded
him. Bellingers only danger is from
the possibility of infection. Fifteen
stitches were taken to close his wound
