Decision on Wall Street
Probe Expected Soon
From a Staff Correspoudent

ALBANY, March 28.-Legislative
leaders are expected to reach decision
this week on the resolutions introduced
by Senator B. Pitcher, of Watertown,
creating Legislative committee to in
vestigate the activities of Wall Street
brokers who indulge in wash sales and
other improper practices.
1t is possible that the resolutions
may be amended SO as to authorize the
committee TO draft blue sky law pro
hlbltlng the sale of bogus securities.
The leaders are said to be in favor
OF the Wall Street inquiry. Some OBJ
Ject, however, to an appropriation of
$4,000, believing that $4,000 or S15.-
600 would be sufficient. Senator Pitcher
is opposed to any reduction.
1T would be useless" he said, "for
legislative committee to go down and
investigate Wall Street with a So bill
in its pocket 1t would not get very
far with that.
II believe hat there is a serious need
or an investigation into certain meth
DDS OF transactions in Wall Street-no-
tlceably so in the curb market, where
stock prices rise and fall with appar-
emily little bona fide trading.
AS far as the question Of blue skv
laws is considered, l believe it perfectly
feasible for the committee to handle
this particular work"
1t is probable that the legislative
Finance Committee, when it meets to-
morrow, may take the Pitcher resoln-
tion under advisement.

tor Cameron is president, said yester-
day that he had talked to the Senator
recently by telephone.
Mr.. Cameron, he said, had told him
that he knew little of Mr.. or Mrs

train in 1912.

According to Mr.. Shurtell, the SEN

until some time later. when Mrs. Nc
Farlin telephoned to him at the hotel
where he was staying in Los Angeles
and informed him that she had left
her husband.
"Mr. Cameron told her." said Mr..
Shurtell, that he didn't see how she
expected him to be interested in the
fact that she had left her husband"
So far as Mr.. Shurtell knew, Senator
Cameron had forgotten about the
couple until the suit was brought to
his attention.
He said the Senator did not under

Robbers Flee Thirsty,
But Take Druggists Cash
One Demands Whisky at Pistol
point; His Companion Rifles
REGISTER of Money

Victor Finkelstein was abouL to close
last night when two men entered his
drug store, at 1405 Prospect Avenue,
the Bronx, one of them complaining of
a headache. AS the druggist reached
for some headache medicine his two
visitors drew revolvers.
"Never mind the headache powders"
said one of them. "Have you got any
booze?"
One bandit then followed the drug
gist into rear room while the other
remained in the front and rif1ed the
cash register. Finkelstein was unable
to supply the gunman with whisky.
The robber backed out of the room
into the front of the store and fled
with his companion in an automobile
which had been left standing on an
opposite corner. AS the machine sped
off one of the men fired at Finkelstein
from the running board The shot
aroused the neghborhood and Detec-
tive Wubbenhorst and four patrolmen
arrived in a few minutes. Finkelstein
told them that the bandits took $50
from the cash register. He gave a
complete description Of the men, also
the license number of the car, which
he had jotted down before it sped
away.

trick group to restrain competition. He
was severely cross-examined on this
point by Mr. Spence, who asked why he
had pleaded guilty if that was the case.

did not wish to change his plea. Slos-
son replied he had pleaded guilty on
advice of counsel and had no desire to
change the plea.
