MEX. PETE JUMPS
Ga POINTS IN WILD
CHANGE TRADING
Erratic Oil Stock Lives Up to
Its Reputation Without Much
Effect on Market.

On transactions totalling only
1000 shares, Mexican Petroleum this
forenoon gave another of its notori-
Gus upward spurts on the New York
Stock Exchange by soaring sixty
four points. Last night the stock
closed at 25S. This morning 1t opened
at 262 and before the end of the
third hour OF business 1t reached 1922
at times jumping as much as twenty
between sales. 1t later reacted tC
312.
The only interest the spectacular
jump created in brokerage circles was
directed toward what action authori.
ties Of the New York Stock Exchange
may take to remove the ssuc from
the trading list.
Several weeks ago the PAN -Amerf.
can Company which had owned O
majority of stock in Mexican Pete
offered shareholders of the latter tn,
right to exchange one share of theii
stock for two and one half shares ol
Pan American "B" stock.
so many shares Of Mexican Petrol
cum were exchanged under the terms
of this offer that Pan American nov
owns 95 per cent. OF Mexican Pet,
common stock. This means that there
are only slightly more than %, 900
shares of the latter available for trad.
ing purposes. These outstanding
shares are so closely held that prob
ably not moro than 1000 or 5000
shares are actually in the market al
this time.
so much Mexican Pete stock Is now
owned by the Pan American Company
that the income account of the for
mer will, according to reliable infor
nation, henceforth he consolidate
with that Of Pan American.
Before thel asst offer Of terms o
exchange n violent upward movement
in Mexican Petroleum, such as oc
CURED to-day. would have been q
matter of considerable concern tC
brokers at large, and would probably
have had an unfavorahle effect OF
the general market. To-day, how
ever. the general list remained total,
unperturbed.
Nevertheless, IN brokerage circles
there was outspoken criticism of au
thoriues of the Exchange for permit
ting such spectacular performer I,
remain on the trading list OF the Elk
change when, It is argued, gyration
such as were witnessed to-day canno
help but bring opprobrlum on the Ex

ASKS CONFERENCE
|OF BIG POWERS TO
| DISCUSS FINANCES
All Economic Questions
Covered by Borah
Amendment.
No GERMAN REQUEST.
! IChamber of Commerce
Chief Says Suggestion Is
Wholly American.

WASHINGTON, Dec. q (Associ-
ated Press) "A conference of the
world powers to consider economic
questions, to be called by President
Harding, for discussion of possible
agreements to establish more stable
financial and business conditions and
i so to bring about reduction in land
and sea ornaments was proposed by
Senator Borah. Republican, Idaho, in
an amendment offered to-day to the
pending Naval Appropriation Bill.
German overtures through informal
channels for American Intervention
TO obtain q revision of German repa-
rations schedules, reported in London
dispatches, throws the first definite
light on the method by which Amer
lean influence is being drawn into a
new attempt at final adjustment of
the vexing reparations problem.
American observers have reported
that without support Of the indus
trialists the Cuno Government could
not stand and that a Socialist Min
istry must replace it, probably to be
followed by political upheavals. If
the Cuno Government is supporting
the informal efforts toward a new
agreement with France on repara-
tons, therefore, the view is taken in
some quarters here that it means rec
ognition in Germany that she must
pay the cost of the war as far as her
capacity will permit and is prepared
to do so.

POKER SW|NDLE
STARTS ROUNDUP
OF GAMBLERS HERE
Arrests Uncover Card Scandal
Involving Several Hundred
Thousand Dollars.

The persistent boast of the present
City Administration that there was
no such thing as an established gam
bling house in Greater New York
was met to-day by charges of Charles
F.. Meyer of White Plains against
Mark Reardon of No. $50 West 5Sth
Street, and Richard Menden of No.
215 West 92d Street, who were ar
raigned before Magistrate Hatting in
the West Side Court on warrants for
them as common gamblers.
The two were arrested at their
homes last night by Detectives Fur
long and Lyons of Inspector Lahey's
staff. According TO the detectives
Reardon lived on the top story of the
5sth Street house and maintained the
lower two floors as club rooms.
Reardon, for whom his son Mark
Reardn jr., and Leon Levy appeared,
was held in $500 bail to appear before
Magistrate Hating in Essex Market
Court Dec. 20. Menden was held in
$1,000 bail for a hearing tomorrow.
In his complaint Mr.. Meyer said
he had lost $4,000 to Reardon and
Menden in two and a half years play
ing poker. He said he first knew
Menden as n member of the Man-
mister Club in which Honest John
Kelly was influential at No. 156 West
44th Street.-The premises which were
raided last night by Inspector Troy
and his men as THE Active Repub-
lican Club, and between January
and November, 1920, lost S13,722 TO
players in games in which Menden
was always a participant. His largest
loss at one sitting was $1,000.
Meyer said he first played in the
Reardon home Feb. 4, 1921,
and lost $500 that night. Reardon,
he said, furnished the cards and chips
and took down "kitty." The limit
was So. Reardon and Menden al
ways played, he said. Meyer said
he seldom won and his largest loss
at one time in the Reardon home was
$500. He always paid his losses with
checks on the Hartman National
Bank made out to cash or to Mendeu
& Co. These checks were offered
as exhibits in the case.
Meyer made his complaint TO Police
Commissioner Enright yesterday af.
ternoon. The Commissioner was
shocked to learn of what seemed like
brazen defiance OF the law and
called in Chief Inspector Lahey. ant
the detectives were sent to court witt
Mr.. Meyer to get the warrants

u. 5. Chamber of Commerce Head
Says No such Request Has

julius II. Barnes President of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States, in a statement to-day. credits
entirely to American initiative the
movement looking to survey of
economic conditions in Germany to
serve as the basis for a new repara-
tions treaty.
He says it is a mistake to attribute
the suggestion to German Chancellor
sumo and pledges his organization to
the support of any action the United
States Government is willing to take,
This report probably originates
he says, in the recognition by all
countries that a definite settlement
of the reparatlon problem would be
a considerable gain on the road to
world recovery. II is natural that
business organizations of the world
should look for aid in determining
reparatiOns, to America, which re-
fused at the outset TO share in re-
parations, and therefore has no self
interest in the question.
1T is manifest that our American
Administration is property exploring
every avenue of hopeful progress in
reaching a determination, in accord
with France and the other Allies, but
II is certainly a mistake to say that
such efforts have been suggested by
Chancellor Cuno or from any German
authority. The action of the Ameri.
can Government is certainly not baseC
on German initiative, but is inspired
undoubtedly by the belief that thu
peace of the world and the recovery
of the Allies could be greatly facili.

tions question"

Witnesses Say.
Especial From a Staff Correspond
Of The Evening Worldly

MINEOLA. l.. l., Dec. 2l.-Mrs.
Hazel Hirsh took the witness stand in
her own behalf just before the noon
recess to-day and made a general de-
nial of the charge Of felonious assault
for which she is on trial before
County Judge Smith and a jury in
the Nassau County Court House.
Miss Hirsh was indicted for an al
legged attempt to kill her husband,
Oscar Wallie Hirsh at a party given
on the lawn of the home of Miss
Refine Davies at Frceport in June
laast. Mr.. Hirsh was shot and for a
time his life was despaired Of.
Mrs. Hirsch, blond and very pretty,
said she had only a vague recollec-
ton of any of the happenings at the
party. She admitted she had con-
sumed considerable liquor. Previous
witnesses had testified that both she
and her husband were very drunk.
The only thing she said she rcmem-
bered was that she missed "Wallie'
from the rathskeller, where they
were drinking, and went outside TO
search for him. She said she saw him
sitting on secluded bench on the
lawn, mumbling and fondling pistol.
She ran to him, she said, and there
was an explosion. When she again
became conscious sho was in the
Freeport Jail.
Everything was like a dream, the
I. 4
member "Wallie" kicking her in the
face or hitting her, as previous wit
nesses had testified
"When you get a few drinks in you,
you are not the best natured person

the time and efforts of this jury will

The resolution went on to say the
cases are properly recognizable in the
Federal courts. particularly in view OF
the recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court that cases can
be prosecuted in the State and Federal
courts for the s,.me offense.
I'VE suggest the enactment Of 9
