MEX PETE INQUIRY
SHOWS NO CORNER
Bull Movement Regarded as
Normal Action i'm Face of
Stock Prospects.

Although the committee on business
conduct of the New York stock Ex-
change refused yesterday 10 make public
the results of it's inquiry into the posi-
tion of the Mexican Petroleum Com
panys stock. nothing has been discov-
cred to show corner in the stock and
there is no likelihood of its being
stricken from the list, according TO Of
ficials Of the exchange.
The attention of the exchange author
tiles was drawn to Mexican Petroleum
not only on account Of the rapid rise in
it's price but because the daily heavy
turnover was out of proportion to the
available supply Of the stock. The float
ing supply was calculated at 117.000
shares, but trading reached as high as
$4,000 shares in one days trading last
week.
The committee undertook Its investi-
cation knowing that corners sometimes
may be brought about unintentionally
through continuously heavy buying. The
exchanges chief concern was to insure
a free and open market for the stock.
Inquiry among officials of the eX-
change showed that Mexican Petroleum
stock has been borrowable all through its
recent upward swing. Most of the time
1t has been loaned flat, few hundred
shares being lent at a premium of lie,
while the rate for short time was 1882.
Referring to the recent statement of
e. l.. Doheny, chairman Of the Mexican
Petroleum Company and president Of
the American Petroleum and Trans
port Company, which owns about 73 per
cent. Of the formers stock. criticizing
the failure of the exchange to protect
owners of the stock In the bear market
of 1921, officials of the exchange incline
to the position that IL Is not within its
power to control either a bull or bear
market and that Mex Pete's decline took
place in natural financial market.
In the midst of heavily declining
market, 1t was stated, reports of the
United States Geological Survey were
published indicating the presence of salt
water In the oil fields of Mexico. Many
holders of the stock then sold out in the
belief that the productivity Of Mexican
Petroleum's properly was nearly at an
end. Similarly, according to the men,
bers, the exchange has no control over
those whose buying orders increased the
price Of the stock when the predominant
ing opinion was that the companys out
look was bright
1t was stated that when the exchange
received letter from Mr.. Doheny last
summer suggesting the appointment of
committee of the exchange to examine
the Americans Mexican Petroleum
stock certificates in the company's vaults
In Los Angeles the exchange replied that
from its standpoint no such examination
was necessary, but that II Mr.. Doheny
wanted to carry out the proposal for
the benefit of the public he might appoint
committee Of Los Angeles bankers to
make the examination. The matter was
dropped there.

SUES u. S. TO FIND OUT
WHERE SOLDIER OF '64 IS
Woman Wants to Trace Man
Discharged in 1865.

Shadows Of the days of 1861 surround
the suit in equity which has been
started in the United States District
Court here by Esther Quinn. stopping
at the McAlpin. who is endeavoring to
discover the whereabouts or a soldier
who enlisted in the Sixty-ninth Regi-
ment in 1864, and who. according to the
Government military records, was mus
tered out of service in 1865. No trace
of the soldier has been found since his
discharge from the army fifty-seven
years ago.
According to the complaint Miss
Quinn. who says that power of attor-
ney was given to her by Ann Dolan
of 1161a Quinan street. Cambridge,
Mass. brought suit in the United
States District Court of Massachusetts,
last May and that this suit was dis
missed by Judge Anderson ten days
later on motion of United States At
torney Robert Harris. The suit in
Massachusetts, was brought to call
upon the Government to discover what
has become of Dolan since he was mus
tered out of the Union Army in 1855.
Because of the action of Judge An
derson in dismissing the suit in the
Massachusetts court. action has been
started here, and Esther Quinn alleges
that she has been injured in her feel
ings and is therefore entitled to re-
dress under the equity rules of the
United States District Court and makes
the Government the defendant in the
matter.
Dolan enlisted in the Sixty-ninth in
July. 1864. and was detailed as a nurse
at the Second Army Corps Hospital at
City Point. Va, where he remained
until he was discharged the following
year. He was a member Of Company F
of the Sixty-ninth Regiment.

CT the New York State Prohibition party
and the seeking Of new political align

they have the nucleus of party which
will supp1ant the Bull Moose party, or
ganized by Theodore Roosevelt and
which will attract back into the ranks
many of the men of means and influence
who deserted with the advent Of the Vol
stead law and the Mullan-Gage act.
The committee proposed nominating
candidates outside of the party. thus
precluding the possibility Of support for
Gov. Miller this fall.
A committee of five was appointed to
meet here the last Saturday in July to
consider plans for the Improvement Of
