HOGS STILL GOING DOWN

dredweight at Chicago.

Chicago, April e2S.-Hog prices took
another plunge early today, carrying
toppy lights down to $835. The same
figure was paid for top hogs on Feb
ruary 10, 1916, and this is $15.25 per
hundredweight under the highest price
on record in the local market, which
was attained when $3.50 was paid
on the last day of July, 1919. A drop
of this extent in the course of less
than two years shows with what vio-

ing industry Arrivals of $4,000 hogs
in the ten leading market centers show
an increase of more than $4,000 as
compared with week ago.

TROOPS To GUARD
MAIL At CHICAGO
Hays and Garlic Agree on Try
out of the Plan.
DETERMINED TO END THEFTS
Armed Soldiers to Guard All Federal
Buildings There in an Effort to
Halt HoIdups-Loot Runs
| Into Millions.

Chicago, April 26.-Regular army
troops are to guard ali government
property in Chicago until such time
as the daring and successful opera
lions of the city's criminals are
checked by the local authorities.
This was the reply of the govern
ment to the half dozen big mail rob-
berries recently, which have cost it in
the neighborhoOd of $2,000,000.
Notice of the unprecedented move
was received by Postmaster William
b. Garlic in the form Of a letter from
the postmaster general. The letter
stated that regular troops were being
assigned Immediately to guard the
Federal building, the Federal Reserve
bank, postal substations and all other
government property where money or
articles Of value are handled.
Quick Action on Request.
This move on the part of the gov
eminent was made on recommendation
Of Postmaster Garlic week ago In
a letter to the postmaster general. The
letter received almost instant atten-
ton, and In the reply which the post
master received he is authorized to
take immediate action.
II am particularly interested In your
suggestion of guarding the mails by
use Of federal troops In the larger
cities Of the country" the reply read,
land wish you to try it out as soon
as possible In your district, as soon
as you have worked out a plan. Let
me know when you have completed
preparations and troops will be as
signed to be placed under your direc-
tion."
Mr. Garlic already has sent forward
a recommendation that troops be as
signed here Immediately.
Mr.. Garlic said that, according to
information gathered by pOstoffice in
spectOrs, the many recent mail rob-
berries throughout the country have
been the work of organized gangs who
have worked together. The headquar-
ters of these gangs, federal authori-
ties believe, has been Chicago and for
that reason Chicago was chosen as
the city where the new plan Of using
federal troops will be tried. Later, it
is planned to use the same methods in
New York, Philadelphia, Indianapolis
and other large cities where large
amounts of money are sent and re-
ceived through the mails.
Get $4,000, 900 In Year.
Washington, April 26.-Mail robbers
got away with approximately $4,000,
600 last year, of which some $3O00,OOO
has been recovered, Postmaster Gen
eral Hays said in discussing steps
taken to remedy this absolutely in
tolerable" condition.
''It must be, stopped and it will be
stopped" he said, adding that in addi-
ton to the distribution of arms to
postal employees the standing reward
of $4,000 to any employee of the de-
partment who brought in a mail rob-
Der had been widened to include the
general public.

Washington, April 26.-Activities of

bodying many of the principles of

and all transferred to Frederick

fered in evidence against Mrs. Anne
Urquhart Stillman had been distored and
were not, for the most part, in his

At the office Of counsel for James A.
Stillman it was said no interest was
being taken in the declarations of Beau

would testify in Mrs. Stillman's behalf
In an interview at Montreal, Beau
vais explained his signature had been
copied from a. check and that the pro-
duction Of the letters in the form in
which they came into possession of
Mr.. Stillman's lawyers was the work of
an enemy. Because of this develop
ment in connection with the letters
Beauvais said it was his desire to tes-
tify in the case in order to clear his
name and that of Mrs. Stillman. He
declared he kept carbon copies Of cor
respondence he had with Mrs. Stillman
which he maintains was solely of a
business and friendly nature.
The next hearing will begin with
the further direct examination of Hugh
l.. Russell, Buffalo osteopath, who al
ready has testified that Mrs. Stillman
told him Beauvais was the father of
Guy Stillman, now thirty months old
1t is expected Russell will be subjected
to severe cross-examination, and that
a further legal battle will be waged
against the admission of the damaging
testimony he has given.

Hot Penny Humorists
Pick Wrong Policeman
Being in Bad Humor, He .Hales
Them to Court for Burning His
Fingers: .Iud9e Saws $40 :

Two young men with sense of
humor and cigar lighter stood in a
doorway at Broadway and Fortieth
Street at $3.50 p. m. yesterday heating
pennies with the cigar lighter and
tossing them to the sidewalk.
Along came Patrolman Terence j.
Harvey, who was in plain clothes be-
cause he was hunting for liquor law
violations and in bad humor because
he hadn't found any. Something jingled
at his feet. He stopped and picked up a
penny. His expression didn't change,
but he said something to himself as
he put the penny in his pocket and his
fingers in his mouth.
By the time he had walked around
the block the penny had cooled off but
he hadn't, and when another penny
iingled on the sidewalk he stepped
into the doorway and arrested Arthur
Corise, of 140 West Fortieth Street, and
Harry Keith, of 523 West 124th Street.
In night court he charged them with
disorderly conduct in Chat you did
throw pennies upon the sidewalk
which were red hot, thereby causing
Patrolman Terence j. Harvey, a police

They admitted the sense of humor
but denied the cigar lighter and the
pennies. Nevertheless they paid a $40
