day, and after a few days Mr.. Faulkner
asked Miss Sargent who is employed by
the HOlstein-Friesian association. if she
had heard anything from her brother.
She said she had received letter from
him in which hev told her that he had Sc
cured work in cotton mill in Man
chester and asked her to sell off the
stock at the market price. 1t would be
difficult to think of Carl Sargent working
in a cotton mill or of asking his sister
to sell stock without being present him
self.
Miss Sargent says the letter came in a
pink envelope and that the more she
thought about it the more she thought
it was not her brothers handwriting.
She says she threw the letter in the
woodbox and later burned it, her custom
being to burn her letters She there
fore has nothing to show her authority
to sell the stock, in fact she made no
plans, so far as known, for selling the
stock. s-
She says her brother had about $3.50
in his pockets when he went away. and
she showed the local officials bank books
showing that Mr.. Sargent has on deposit
several thousand dollars in his own name.
The farm and stock are worth $4,000.
So far as can be learned no effort was
made to locate Mr., Sargent until last
week, when his sister wrote to the rel
atives i'm Manchester to inquire about her
y
delivery letter froTA Manchester saying
that Mr. Sargent had not been in that
city so far as the relatives knew. Before
the letter arrived Mr., prefontaine tel
ephoned to Manchester and was told by
the relatives that Mr.. Sargent had not
been seen there. The matter was then
referred to States Attorney Whitney,
who went to the Sargent place with Mr..
StellmaE ard others, accompanied tR
a stenographer and interviewed Miss
Sargent. bringing out the information
substantially as stated above.
The officers are not inclined to think
that Mr. Sargent would leave home in
tending TO stay away without taking some
steps to close up some of his affairs 1t
| is understood that he tried to buy his

his own but without success. ....

work home more forcefully MIR. Jones
told of letter recently received from Miss
Rowe, who has been in Brattleboro sew
eral times on work connected with the
Red Cross and who now is in Europe to-
help in the work of the Red Cross child
health stations. in which Miss Rowe
wrote of the forlorn conditions which she
found in visiting homes, where babies no
older than three months of age We're
wrapped in newspapers, as were their
mothers, because of the lack of clothing.
He then spoke of the work of the Red
Cross in the continuous round of disas-
tiers of fire, food, wrecks, riots and other
things which call for Red Cross activity,
in addition to the fight against the men
ace of preventable diseases.
The question of employment of two
public health nurses for the county,
whose services would be devoted to work
in towns except Brattlehoro and Bellows
Falls, was then presented to the members
by Mrs Murray NJ. Tucker. She gave a
brief outline of the work which would de-
Yolye upon such nurses and mentioned
the matter of financing such project,
stating that it had been thought that the
chapter could pay one-third the expense
incurred by the employment of two such
nurses and that r. NJ. Bradley trustee of
the Thomas Thompson fund. already had
given assurance that one-third of the ex-
pense would be borne by the fund. From
what source the remaining funds would
be available she said was yet to be deter
mined
Miss Van Patten told of the pleasing
results accomplished by public health
nurses in some counties and made several
suggestions which will be invaluable in
working out the project, adding that the
details would have TO be worked out
carefully if the project was to be of the
greatest possible help and to be satisfac-
torialy carried through. No definite ac-
ton was taken, but budget committee
to work on the matter and to study a
budget for the chapter for the coming
year was elected, consisting of Mrs G. l..

NOT SUPPORTING
WIFE AND SONS
Willis e. 0'Brien Brought Up Before
Judge Stowe
Today

Willis E. O'Brien, Boston auto-re-
pairman. whose wife and two children
live in Brattleboro, was brought before
Judge f. ID. f. Stowe in the municipal
court this morning on the charge of nom
support of his wife and two boys. States
Attorney Harold Il. Whitney represented
the state. while Attorney A. V. ID. Piper
appeared for O'Brien.
The states testimony showed that
O'Brien had contributed only twice in
the last year to his family's support, and
then in very meagre manner, The de-
tense testified that business had been poor
in Boston and that O'Brien had been ac-
tually unable to contribute more to his
wife's support. O'Brien stated, however,
that he had several large bills. which he
expected to collect in the next few weeks,
and that if the court would allow him an
ether opportunity, he would try to do
better by his family than he had been
able to do in the past.
After a sharp reprimand by the court.
the judge stated that a reasonable length
of time would be allowed the defendant to
show that the respondent really intended
to do his best to support the family.

VIOLENT MOVES
SUCCEEDED BY
ORDERLY TRADING
N. Y. Stock Exchange Issues
Rally Moderately After
Severe Declines.
BY MAX KASE,
n. s. Financial Editor.


NEW YORK, July 2s.-After vio-
lent movements. trading on tn
stock exchange became more orderly
towards noon, and many of the is.
sues that had suffered severe de-
clines rallied moderately.
National Lead, which had fallen
over 6 points early, turned sharply
after publication of news that the
regular dividend had been declared
and jumped from 81 to TON.
Railway Steel Springs also was In
better demand. rising from 81 to 20,
and United Fruit moved up from 1Ot
to 1924.
Business just after noon was quiet
and almost wholly professional.
There was a good deal OF confu.
sion in the expression OF opinion
about the market which was natural
because OF the rapid fluctIntion tina,
occurred In so many industrial spe-
cialties.
The easiness OF call money was &c
garded as a bullish influence and the
general assumption was that the free
supply of money would soon begin
to exert it's influence on prices.

capitalization, present earning power
and income prior to the war with
that of the Steel Corporation.
Then reflect that Crucile has capt.

Steel has conserved its resources.
When one notices that Crucible, at
SIS a share. would yield slightly over
Z per cent IL it's payment were con.
tinued, and that u. s. Steel at STA
yields close TO per cent, the only
copclusion is that one is out of line.
Considering that Crucible's dividend
Is likely to cease altogether soon and
that the Steel Corporation has ample

only conclusion is that Crucible Is toe

The Steel Earnings.

The showing of the United States
Steel Corporation of over s21 ,00O, 900
net for the second quarter did not
have the beneficial effect looked for.
While Steel opened slightly higher,
1t soon quieted down, and traders
who came downtown expecting a
better market were disappointed.
There is no doubt but what great
economies must have been put into
force during the three months In
order to make the present showing.
In addition, full advantage was
probably taken of steamship and rail-
way earnings. Despite this, however,
the general condition of the steel
industry is such that enthusiasm is
lacking.
While IL is early to discuss earn
ings for the current quarter 1t does
not seem likely that July income was
as great as June, when $500, 900
was earned. Those who hold the
opinion of Improvement soon, pin
their hopes on buying by the rail.
roads.
1t may be some time before such
thing develops, however, and in
the meantime, while the corporation
is not. earning it's dividends, higher
prices for the steel issues are thought
doubtful.

The Summer Market.

NEW YORK, July 2S.--Late in
the spring great expectations were
held for summer market" which
has materialized. but not as ex-
pected.
The market is typical of hot
weather. apathy. There is little or
no real interest. and the general list
says back and forth in the eddies
Of changing conditions and opinions.
Good news fails to bring any de-
cided upward trend. and bad news
has little. effect now. The only
hope appears to be in some real
accumulation OF securities by the
big leaders, but this is not likely
to develop until certain stocks now
selling out of line seek their proper
levels.
These issues, while not numerous,
afford sufficient targets for short
selling to halt any advance, and
until removed will act as a deter.
ring influence. Then. again. few
weak ones are holding on tooth and
nail, and would welcome an advance
to unload some of their holdings.
Room traders find 1t increasingly
difficult to take profits on either
side, due not only to the dullness,
but to high charges, and are max.
ing few commitments.
Outsiders show little interest.
Therefore, until some powerful in
terests take the market in hani,
or there is some real important con-
structive happenings, no general con-
tinued movement is likely.

left and the losers are vainly trying
