Street Features
COAL SHARES STRONG.

Nobody at all well informed
about the practical workings Of the
street has ever taken the coal
strike as large argument 1t had
absolutely nothing to do with the
reaction in the market last Satur-
day and the following Monday. But
II there had been any lingering doubt
on the matter, it must have been
set at rest today, when the coal
shares-that is, the stocks OF COM
panies which derive their principal
revenue from the transportation of
coal-not only did not weaken, but
were among the strongest features
in the trading.
ROYAL DUTCH.
Royal Dutch stood out promin-
emily among the oil stocks, getting
through its recent high limit. Those
who look for another upturn in the
oil trade in the near future, based
upon the seasonal increases in the
demand for gasoline and also upon
the larger use of fuel oil with the
advent of the coal strike. are opti-
mistic regarding the oil shares, al
ways excepting those which are too
much involved with the Mexican I'M
certainties. Royal Dutch has some
Mexican interests, but they are
slight in comparison with its pos
sessions in other parts of the
world.
ALLIS CHALMERS.
The salient fact in the Allis Chal-
raj cit mt 0rfe
show, is not the earnings statement
for 1921, to be published within 10
days but the remarkable excess of
present bookings over billings. This
balance in favor of new business
has obtained for the last FIVE
months and it has been estimated
that one and one-half times more
business is being secured now than
last August, when bookings were at
rock bottom
ZINC EXPORTS.
With the announcement that do
nestle zinc is once more being ex-
ported in quantity to England,
signs are multiplying that the tide
has definitely turned in the zinc
industry.
UNITED STATES SIN ELIlNUs
The annual report of the United
States Smelling & Refining COM
pany which has just been made
public was looked upon in certain
quarters as an even more notable
exhibit than that of the American
Smelling & Refining company,
which is a much larger company.
United States Smelling showed a
small operating loss when it was
taken into consideration that last
year was a very poor one in the
mining industry. Since the first of
the year, the operating conditions
have improved at the mine and
smelters and it. is estimated that
the preferred dividend of S425,556
for the first quarter will be more
than earned.

AFTER Is YEARS ARDMORE MAN FINDS

RED CROSS CAN GIVE HIM ASSISTANCE

To follow the winds for fifteen years
to fall victim to a disease that laughed
at your every attempt to drive it away,
to drift into Uncle Sans army, be
kicked out because of lung trouble and
then to rove over three states Vainly
searching for friend knowing that
death was only n few months ahead,
is the pathetic tale that Arthur T..
Watts told Ardmorc Red Cross workers
when ne came here about four weeks
ago.
1t was the story that maybe the "old
home town" would come to his help
when all others had deserted that the
tubercular eXsodier told. Fifteen years
ago Watts was a citizen Of Ardmore,
healthy and happy. lie had parents,
friends and money, then. so 1t was
hardly strange that he should finally
try to return after being kicked about
overthree states. But fifteen years
makes a lot OF difference to a world
as busy as ours. Watts parents had
not been spared-they died years ago.

the base of the brain as he slept. l then felt rather sorry ana lay down by his side.
 "He was still quivering, and brother, who was nearby, struck him again. Lee was called by mother. and he called aerman and Bennett. We final ly decided to hang the body to rafter in the barn. The boys placed the body in wagon and drove it to the barn. They then put a harness rein about the neck and tied it to a rafter. In the afternoon they drove to town and re- ported to the officials they had found the body tied to a rafter.
 Newaygo officials found the body, also alleged death notes written by Hodell. Physicians who examined the body held that death was due to blow just below the ear.
 Then, some weeks later, dissatisfied with the progress made by the officers. Hedell's neighbors formed 8 lynching party. They placed ropes about the Dudgeon boys necks. and they made a confession charging that Bennett killed Hodell and forced them to help hang fohe body to rafter. They later re- pudiated this confession and the state police were called.
 Sworn confessions were made by Mrs Dudgeon and her two sons bearing out in all details the confession made by l the widow. The four made uew con { fessions to the prosecutor today, the same in all details. All waived exam inaton and were bound over to the circuit court. Bennett denies guilt, but is also charged with murder.
 The Dudgeons &dd Hodells lived on ad djoining farms in the swamp lands oi tGoowill township.
