Sam was fined one cent for being m
possession Of case Of whiskey when
he was arrested in San Diego which
he had brought over the border from
Tia Juana. Som, however, was given
an additional penalty of sir months in
the San Diego jail on account of being
caught. He pleaded guilty and Judge
-Bledsoe let him down light.
Siguru Tanaka, vegetable grower,
near Ell Centre, who attempted to
bring six bottles of whiskey across the
line at Calexico was fined $500 by
Judge Bledsoe and Otto ]. Mais and
George Paulson. who are electricians,
and were connected with the Workman

American Sumntra.
The extreme weakness in American
Sumatra, in the. face of the strength
in most other directions. would seem
% call for some special explanation.
There has been talk for several days
about IL separation of American Suma-
ira and Consolidated Cigar Co.
1t was reported that the severance
of relations was being sought by
American Sumatra because 1t could
very well use the money that would be
brought in from its holdings In Con-
olidated Cigar. The street then began
to figure upon the loss which would be
taken by the parent company in such
transaction, and it placed this loss
pretty high. At the same time 1t was
said that things were not going at all
we'll with American Sumatra's new
crop, and that it stood to run behind
quite heavily because labor costs had
| not been reduced to keep pace with the
lowering Of prices for the Sumatra

Pools Operating With Con-
fidence on Conditions-Dis-
count Coming Events.
BY STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK, November 1.-THE
! main inclination in all the markets
today was to reverse yesterdays
| movement.
The rise in sterling was halted just
under the 81 level.
Cotton worked lower and grain
options were inclined to sag. The
stock market was more irregular than
the others.
To offset the protit-taking which
| was going on in good part of the
list, there were many fresh points of
strength.
Railway shares. especially the
standard dividend payers, were IA
vorably affected by the new plan for
meeting the rate and wage problem
worked out between the Interstate
Commerce Commission and the rail
executives.
A delay for as long as six months
is ANTICIPATED before the 10 per cent
wage reduction is passed upon. The
roads are choosing that length of
time for trying out their new rate
schedule, making its continuance con-
ditional upon the Labor Board 8
granting the new wage cut.
The view obviously is that a strong
public sentiment will be built up in
favor of the carriers demand. be-
cause of this evidence of good faitl
in allowing the farmers to get the
advantage a half year ahead of time
of this reduction in labor costs.
Selling Industrials.
While railway stocks were bid up
realizing sales went on in most of the
Industrial leaders. The market open
ed strong. with a further general
gain in prices. but by the end of the
first hour the speculative following

ment of the merger plan, and in the
zinc stocks because of the recent
marked improvements in the position
of the zinc industry, and few other
specialties of the type of General
Asphalt and the express stocks.
Pools Active Again.
Pool operations were conducted with
the same amount of confidence today,
despite lot of talk in commission
houses about an impending reaction. The
tin was all over the street last night
and again this morning that the shorts
in Studebaker were going to be squeezed,

WALKING DOLL TALKS,

NEW YORK, November IA
Christmas novelty recently intro
duced for gift shops and department
stores is the walking and talking
doll. Retailers claim that it is one
of the seasons biggest sellers. The
mechanism which makes the doll talk
is inclosed in a heavy cardboard tube,
and consists of weight, plunger
and a metal reed. When the doll is
inclined backward the weight pushes
the plunger up in the tube. When
the doll Is tipped forward the weight
pushes the plunger through the
opening in the tube, thereby forcing
air through the reed.

TOBACCO CROP NOT MOVING.

LANCASTER. Pa, November Ito
the fact that so much Lancaster
county tobacco of 1919 and 1920 crops
is held by the big cigar firms having
numerous warehouses in this country
is largely attributed the failure of
the new crop to move. While the
cigar industry has been IMPROVING
it has not yet reached the point where
the factories are drawing heavily on
reserve stocks of leaf Under such
circumstances the large holders of
old goods do not feel inc'irrd to lord
up with new, and especially with a
crop that has not yet proved itself.
