Another interesting incident Of the
week was the successful bidding by,
an American COMPANY subsidiary
of the Westinghouse Electric-for
the 100000 electrical contract on
the Chilean state railroads. The
American Company was able to un-
derbid its German competitors and
thus to furnish a concrete instance
bearing upon the much debated sub

ton. in view of the enormous depre-
citation of the mark. 1t is an object

NEW YORK. October 1.-The
strength of federal war issues and
the acute depression of exchanges on
Germany and most of the new CEN
tral European countries constituted
the noteworthy, If somewhat conflict
ing. developments of the week in the
financial markets.
On enormous transactions and al
most without exception. liberty bonds
ana victory notes registered gains of
z to per cent, the latter rising to
within fraction of par. While the
demand for these issues was prma-
rllly ascribed to the recent lowering
OF rediscount rates by federal re-
serve banks, it also was accepted as
evidence that the countrywide liuui-
dation of the last eighteen months
mad run its course.

On the other hand, the slump in marks

corresponding or greater demoraliza-

landlord, George Gunsurak. formerly
a saloonkeeper for SIT worth of liz
quor and $40 rent, according to City
Attorney Leo Goldberger with whom
the poor overseer has taken up the
matter. An attachment. which ac-
cording to the city attorney, was il
legal. was secured by Gunsurak went
to the house and took the belongings
of the family. The husband, accord
ing to Mr.. Hansen. sent $50 with
which to pay some bills but butch
er took this whole amount when the
woman wanted to pay part of bill
she owed.

slain seven-year- r-old Matilda Russo.
was still at large today hunted by
scores of policemen and citizens.
During the search half dozen men
have been arrested in this state but
all were released.
Threats against the suspected ne
gro are still heard but the temper
of the citizens is quieting as a result
of advice given by the Rev. James
S. Henrick. of Moorestown, at the
funeral of the victim yesterday. He
admonished the people to view the
situation with calmness.
The little girl was missing week
before her mutilated body was found
buried ip the cellar of the house
where lived Lively. Lively's wife was
not at home last week and told au-
thorities she knew nothing about
the crime.

EDGE ATTACKS BILL

WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Walter +. Edge of New Jersey made
q speech in the senate attacking the
bill now before congress providing
for regulation of the packing indus
try. Such regulation will increase
the cost of meats to the public, ne
said without any commensurate
benefit to the cattle raisers.
Senator Edge said that this pro
position is just another instance OF
the situati ton that has been describ-
ed by President Harding as too
much government in business ana
too little business in government.
81 am absolutely convinced that
the principle of these senate and
House bills to regulate the meat
packing industry is fundamentally
unsound; and that it will be Il great
mistake, especially in these days. to
enact such regulatory legislation,
declared Senator Edge.

perience in the past few years with
governmental administration OF
what should be private interests, to
make us hesitate. Some of these
experiments were necessary because
of the war, but now with that be-

two and a half years to get back to

practicable supervision or control
