New York, June 9-Probably the
simplest explanation OF todsy's rather
emphatic decline In the stock ex-
change is the fact that for several
days the pools" aud "syadiea,es"
had clearly shown inability to put up
prices. or in stocks, which had beeif
bid up more extravagan,ly, to hold
prices where they were.
Such visible evidence Of an ex-
hausted speculation is always the
signal for another group Of profess
sional operators TO resume activity
in selling ior.the declipe. They will
usually drag with them q substan-
tial company OF belated ovtside spec

F. E. KREBS FREED ON
WHITE SLAVE CHARGE

Francis Emile Krebs was yester.
day exonerated by a jury in Criminal
Court, No. l, Justice Stafford presid-
ing, of violation of the Mann white
slavery act in connection with
charges preferred against him by
Nictorine o. Leclert, a twenty-five.
year-old French girl, who claimed
that Krebs brought her to this coun.
try on the promise Of marrying her.
The girl testified on the witness
stand that Krebs met her at Biar.
ritz, the fashionable Riviera resort,
and promised to aid her to come to
this country. Miss Leclert in time
arrived al Ellis Island and Krebs
went to meet her. bringing her on to
this city, where they lived with
Krebs' mother.
The latter maintained that he had
intended to marry the young girl as
soon as he could arrange for a di
vorce. II was also shown that Krehs
went to the immigration officials in
his efforts to smooth out the diff.
culties which had arisen between
him and the girl.

terestingly. Most mems talk con-
corning their work is swamped
with details which are Greek to the
untechnical ear.
Mr.. Lewis is head of the educa-
tional service OF the United States
Chamber of Commerce, and some
OF his addresses to business asso-
Citations during the past week have
been enllvened by the following
yarn. one OF his best-and that's
saying a lot:
The authorities of a certain
school" Mr.. Lewis narrated,
found one child who was having
great difficulty In keeping UP with
his studies. Further than that, the
youngster appeared to be-well,
stupid. So they sent him off to be
examined for idiocy. The doctors
found that the child wasn't an i'm
beetle. but was only subnormai.
The little boy went back to
school, and all the kids were assem-
bled In, front to meet him. Their
faces wore that peculiar expression
OF contempt which only children
can appreciate.
"Yaa" they yelled at the poor
boy. You're dumb, you are! You
couldn't even pass the examina'
ton for an idiot"
Another Of Lewis favorites was
given a hearty reception by the
Kiwanis Club at its meeting last
Thursday.
This concerned married man

phone one night. shaking his head
sadly.

asked.

funerals already. and he wants me

The speaker brushed tear from
his eye.

his wife.

that Rotarians are just as strong

and Alfred A. Whitman, chairman OF
the legislative committee Of the
American Association OF Woolen and

sented as the spokesmen for the
warning fSctions.

at the afternoon meeting.
Promises Early Report.
Francis X. Wholley. director Of
the local bureau, took the chair for
the discussion on the fabrics bill.
He announced. as chairman Of the
legislation committee of the Better
Business Commission. that his COM
mittee would report Its conclusions
on the Capper French bill on Thurs
day. Better Business Bureaus
throughout the country will be
guided by this decision.
Walker explained that "shoddy" is
reclaimed wool. and consequently
should not be sold in clothing as
virgin wool, pure wool or all wool.
The merits Of Virgin wool and
shoddy, he said, were not under
question, the dispute centering
around the labelling of shoddy as
wool. He drew parallels with the
case Of oleomargarine---whi may
be as good as butter but cannot
be sold as butter-domestic goods
as opposed to imported goods and
used automobiles as against new
cars.

To Protect Public

goods, its sole purpose being to

"Too much science will make a

Traphagens point was that
chemical tests in determining the
quality OF goods were highly
fallible, and that while two classes
of material may be almost identical
from chemical standpoint they
are totally different from the angle
of wear and utility"
Demonstrates Point.
He demonstrated his point with
two shoes Of widely different grades
and workmanship. showing the re.
spective grades of leather used in
their manufacture.
Edmond Whittier, secretary OF the
American Fair Trade League. and
Arthur L. Fairchild, proprietor Of
the Fairchild publications, a group
OF well.known trade papers, were
