EUROPE SHIPPING
 MUCH GOLD HERE
(Continued from page 1.)

As shown by these figures, commer- !cial commitments at the banks for foreign shipments have been limited in proportion to the alarming expan- sion of foreign curreI-cy.
 A 100 per cent. decline in cotton shipments and an equally heavy de- crease in exports of meat and dairy products and a sharp drop in the bread stuffs group of commodities. reflects cramped credit affairs abroad. which are reacting disastrously upon American trade With no signs of returning stability to foreign cur rency conditions the figures hold forth nothing today in the view of the public officials, which can be said to be of hopeful trend to producers ana manufacturers generally.
 Some officials, including Secretary Hoover and members of the Federal Reserve Board, detected a sign of encouragement today in the relatively higher records of imports but this is almost entirely due to the influx of goods cheap1y priced, which are be- ing poured into the United States in competition with American producers. These heavier shipments are possible because South American and Orien- tai countries are finding it easier ito establish dollar credit if they have not already available bank connec- uons on which to draw in American money centers

FELLMAN SAYS BUSINESS OUTLOOK
 IN SOUTH GOOD

Business prospects in the Southern states are very good at the present time, according to A. c. Fe1lman of the Criterion Manufacturing Com pany, who returned Wednesday from a four weeks trip through the South. Present conditions are much better in the South than in this vicinity, due to the fact that retail business does not depend upon the manufacturing industries for it's prosperity.
 MT. Fellman is a member of the Bridgeport Junior Chamber of Com merce, and is also on the business committee of that organization. Dur ing his stay in the Southern states, he had an excellent chance to o0- serve general conditions. and his re- port brings some encourag cement to local business.

Spectators and even the officials Of the City court were treated to little amusement today, when the court en- deavored to probe a near riot which occurred in a boarding house at S14 State street. Sunday morning.
 The principal figures in the case were Patrick Rudelmire. his wife Hannah and one Michael Doyle, all of whom gave their address as S14 State street. Rude1mire told Judge Fred eric A. Bartlett that he heard his wife screa ming Sunday morning, and rushed upstairs to find her in Doyle's room. He attacked Doyle and used a club and his fists to such effect that Doyle spent several days in the hos pita1.
 Mrs. Rudelmire admitted that she was not at home Saturday night, and went to Doyle's room early Sunday morning to tell him about a job in which he was interested. She claimed that Doyle gave her several glasses of cider and then started to beat her up when she tried to leave tho room.
 Doyle. upon taking khe witness stand, said that he was drunk Sun day morning. and had no recollection of ever seeing the woman. He also denied that he had ever been arrest ed before.
 Where were you born?" inquired Prosecutor Delaney.
 "In Red Hook. N. Y-," said Doyle.
 (Which President of the United States came from Red Hook ?' asked the prosecutor.
 well, I don't remember him" re- piled Doyle after considera bIe thought. q probably knew him when he was in Red Hook, but can't seem to place him just now"
 Judgment was suspended in Doyle's case. Rudelmire was fined S25 and costs on a suspended sentence, and his wife was given 30 days in jail, but probated for one year.

 Fourteen hundred members of the Chamber of Commerce including the heads of many of the largest mer- cantile houses and factories, were re- ported today ready and willing to adopt the recommendation Of the board of directors and set their clocks ahead.
 The action of the directors at their annual meeting last night largely in- huenced the schools and larger stores to join the movement.
 Managers of the several large re- tail stores announced their readiness to Cooperate and adopt the clock ad- "ancement movement today. The stores had been hold-outs in many cases, but are now supporters of the plan, almost without exception.
