List Has Heavy Tone

Although there was no urgency
about the selling. steady offerings
dribbIed into the market during the
morning hours. This infiltration gave
the general list a heavy tone, encour-
aging a widespread belief that 4
sharp ugly break might be expected TO
wind up the current period Of re-
action. But despite the disposition
shown by the trading element to await
the weak spells for making commit
ments, it was evident that an i'm
portant accumulation was in progress
under cover Of the markets irregular
ity.
Republic Steel broke to a new low
on the move at 81 despite the an
nouncement of improved earnings and
so per cent operations and the state
ment that the bankers and attorneys
were attempting to work out modi-
fed plan for merger with Midvale
and Inland. This weakness in the
face of what, on the surface, would
seem to be favorable news strength
ened the belief that the difficulties be-
ing encountered by promoters of the
merger are far more serious than the
facts so far published indicate.

ued at more than 500. Among the

ing ON. the case+;tt,
It was also learned this morning
by the officers that the home Of

monious, and that II was IN an

Wisconsin down into the northern
part OF Texas, Arkansas and Ok

The northwest, where the storm
was greatest. according to dispat-
ches received here. reported a
death toll Of 10 and millions OF
dollars damage to property. Five

DOPE PEDDA.ER
STICKS TO STORY
Still Claims He Drove
Murderers to Home
of Taylor

DETROIT, Feb. 24.-Further de-
tails Of his alleged participation in
the conspiracy that led to the slay.
ing Of William Desmond Taylor,
motion picture director, were giveu
to Sheriff Irving Coffin today by
Harry NJ. Field, held in jail here
on a forgery charge. While con-
tlnuing 10 reserve judgment as to
the truth of Fields statements, the
sheriff admitted it seemed very
plausible" He forwarded It to the
Los Angeles authorities and de.
clfned TO make II public.
Efforts we're renewed today to
locate a bank book, in the name OF
Sam Coplin, showing deposit OF
$3.50 In q Chicago bank OF February
Q and which, according to detec-
tives who arrested Fields In Buf-
falo, February 6, was IN the pris'
oner's possession. Fields is said to
have admitted he sometimes used
the name OF Coplin. The authori-
ties plan to confront Fields with
the bank book and ask him to ex-
plain a deposit in Chicago within
a day after Taylor was slain in
Los Angeles.
Sheriff Coffin also planned : to
question Fields further concerning
the automobile in which he says
he drove two women. one Of them
Chinese, to Taylor's apartments
that night. He says he first. saw
the machine just before the slay'
ing. The fact that Fields, declared
to be a drug addict, did not use
the information given the sheriff
here as the means Of obtaining
narcotics inclInes authorities here
to place some credence in his
statements,
