z @Swin,ning" Girl Is
 RelieUed Kidnapped
By Associatsd Pre-.

Muskegon, Mich. October s1.- Search by officers, aided by Boy Scouts. failed today to reveal the whereabouts of 12-year-old Rosaline Shanty, the swimming girl" who disappeared after attending Sunday school Sunday.
 Authorities tonight declared they believed the girl was taken away by man who had witnessed her fancy swimming exhibitions last summer and had either become infatuated with the child or planned to train her for circus or stage career.
 Many residents, however. have ex- pressed the belief the girl was spir- tied away by degenerate and feel ing was running so high that off cials took steps to avert disorders should the man be found.
 Rosaline, who appeared much older than 12 and who was unusually at tractive, was induced to enter an au- tomobile driven by a man who had asked two boys to point her out to him. As the car sped away from the church the girl began to cry and the man was said to have told her she ould never see her home again"

By Assoclated Press

New York. October S1,-Directors of thec States Steel Corporation. at tk uuartelFiy meeting todaFs fse. clared the regular dividends If Ia4 per cent on the preferred stock and 1H per cent on the common, but the corporation again failed to earn all the common, taking s1.339.60 of the undivided surplus to make the pay ment.
 Total earnings of s27.4s8,s3s, as compared with s272S6,945 in tho pre- ceding quarter, show that the steel industry is on the mend. especially when consideration Is taken of the fact that the last quarter covered the worst periods of the coal and rail strikes.
 The net, income for the quarter ending September 90 was $13.297 1894, as against sf6.219,513 for the preced- ing one. indicating that the corpora ton earned 9S cents of the $1.25 com- mon dividend in the last quarter as against 96 cents for the one before
 Gross earnings for September totaled only s7.727.721. as against S11,324,059 in August and s10.544.674 In July
 Failure to earn all the common dividend was disappointing to num- Der of Wall street traders. but as usual announcement was not made until after the market closed.

Mayfieids name off the ballot as democratic candidate, came today when the fifth court of civil appeals ordered set aside the temporary injunction granted Satur- day by District Judge A. M Black mon at Fairfield. Hearing or mak- ing that permanent was scheduled for tomorrow at Groesbeek

 The order vacating the Fairfield injunction directs Judge Blackmon to proceed no further with the case until after final disposition of this case by this court" It is pointed out by attorneys that the plaintiffs motion for a new hearing on the courts order nullifying the Corsicana injunction suit is still pending and the final disposition" means final action on this motion.
 Appellate Court To Act
 It is further pointed out that the Corsicana injunction preventing May fields name from going on the ballot will not be finally dissolved until the appellate court here acts on the motion for reheafing. although the Supreme cor-t decided in Mayfields favor and passvx. the decision down to the Appellate court.
 In this connection, the courts ac- ton citing Secretary Staples and Mir. Keeling to appear before 1t looms up.

Los Angeles, October 31.-Mrs. Clara Phillips Is moron" sub Ject to epileptic convulsions" and has '.the mentality of a child" her at torney. Bertram Harrington, declared today in opening the defense in her trial for the murder of Mrs. Alberta Meadows.
 The attorney asserted he would prove that the defendant did not wield the hammer with which the state contends Mrs. Meadows was beaten to death on July 12 He de- clared 1t would be shown that Mrs. Phillips actions on that day were guided by Peggie Caffee," prosecu- tion witness. who testified she saw Mrs. Phillips striking Mrs. Meadows.
 The state rested after examining
 Lester Atkins, who corroborated Mrs. Caffee's statement that he and man named Gentry met Mrs. Caffee and Mrs. Phillips at Long Beach few hours before the staying. He said the women came to his apartment and Gentry and Mrs. Phillips went out and returned with pint bottle of whisky, of which all four par took. He said he and Gentry drove the womensto Los Angeles, Mrs. Phil lips carrying with her the bottle and what remained of its contents. Herrington declared he would show that Mrs. Meadows was slain after an altercation and fight be- tween her and Mrs. Phillips. in which the latter's little finger was prac- tically broken. and she appealed to Mrs. Caffee for aid.

 WORKERS SIDE IN OPEN SHOP FIGHT SHOWN COMMITTEE
By Assoc,ated Press

Windbr. Penn, October 3i.-The strikers side of the Industrial struggle in the open shop coal field of the Berwind- White company was painted in vivid colors today at the hearing conducted by Mayor Hylans Investigating committee from Kew York. Women living in tents. barns and chicken GOODS corroborated stories which their husbands told. The kepnote of these stories was that the strike which began April s was not primarily the consequence of an effort to unionize the Berwind- White properties but was the re- sponse of the employees to q drastic cut in wages effective last April l..
 Men and women insisted that prior to the cut the average weekly wage of minors was. from SIS to s22 and that when the cut was announced the married men declared they could not earn sufficient money to support their families.
 Two independent coal operators who attended Yesterday "as repre- sentatives of the citizens of Wind Der" were not present at today's session.
 Louis Chaney testified he worked from to s1a hours six days week and earned between SIS aud se2 week. Out of this his rent and grocery bills were deducted, he said. .s&-I drew a dollar cash every two weeks" lie declared.

 Attorneys for Lacy produced rec ords of the Exchange National bank of Montgomery. which showed thar on the day the alleged embezzlement took place Lacy placed on deposit in that bank the amount received. entering 1t to the credit of the pres ident of the state board of convict inspectors.

ALLIED MISSION
 ON PREPARATIONS
 NOW IN GERMANY
Much Importance Attached to Presence of American 0b- servers-To Discuss h.
 ternationaI Loan
By Associated Press

Berlin, October 31.-An exchange of courtesies between Chancellor Wirth and members of the reparation commission and subsequent visit by the commissioners to the ministry of finance today officially inaugurated what promises to be the most signi- ficant series of pour parlers in the reparations discussion.
 Neither occurrence afforded indi- cations to what line of action the entente investigators may follow.
 Much importance is attached in German quarters to the presence of Roland W. Boyden and Colonel James A. Logan as American observers, esi,ttss5iy ie- view of the emphssis placed by the German government on the urgency of an international of stabilization.
 Some Germans. who persist in the belief that no foreign loan will be forthcoming unless active American interest in connection with ropara tion revision is vouchsafed. are ex tracing fresh hopes out of the un official participation by American delegates in the present negotiations.
 Given Priority
 German insstence on the inevitable necessity of an ample foreign loan in connection with any attempt to halt the threatened disintegraion of the national currency has not yet been given specific formation. although it is generally assumed that such pros posal will specify an arrangement whereby interest payments on such a loan would be accorded priority rights by the reparations commis- sion.
 Just what will be the German governments reply to the demand by the entente representativesstnat Ger man currency imitation cease forth with in the event such loan is floated has not been indicated. An invitation of the manner in which such loan could be applied is be- ing carried on by several. neutral ex perts. To what extent their findings will influence members of the re- parations commission Is subject of considerable speculation.
 There is also much curiosity over how far Chancellor Wirth wiu suc- ceed in bringing the entente dele gates and the neutral observers to- gether.
 The governments program also comprehends cooperation between leaders of German industry and fin- ances and the Reichstag committee. which are looking into the problem of heading off speculation in foreign currencies and other international economic reports.

HOLT FURNACE SETS
 S25 AS BASE PRICE
 FOR P|G IRON SALES
Reduction Made in Open and Transactions Take Place in Competitive
 Market

Central Iron and Coal company operators Of the blast furnace al Holt, hss announced base of s2s for pig iron; II has been done in the open and sales have been made at that base In competitive markets.
 No great tonnage has been taken even at this reduction, the volume of business so far being 500 tons, or something like that. Officials of the Central company expressed convic- tion that the price of iron had got to lower level soon, and hence there seemed no reason for not getting to it now.
 The lower price was announced several days ago and became known in Birmingham iron circles and those of adjacent districts yesterday.
 Lowest recent base prior. to this was S27 and majority of sales, which have been in small lots for prompt shipment. have been at BPS and $2s.50, but the market in the east has eased down and pipe makers, largest consumers in the south, have shown no recent interest in the market at the prevailing base.
 several other ron makers were asked yesterday what they intended doing. All admitted the announce ment of the s25 base made by the one stack company. but none ex- pressed intention of following suit.
 A large amount of undelivered iron and steel products is on yards awaiting cars. An experienced metal traffic manager said that the de- ficiency was 5000 to 10000 cars; that there were that many car loads waiting on shipment to consumer. He thought the situation would begin to improve with the incoming of cars ordered here by the interstate com- merce commission.
