Jan. g.
The stock market was decidedly less
active and at frequent intervals there
was a tendency toward dullness.
Following an aggressive selling move
ment, this feature ordinarily could be
construed as favorable. So far as seht1-
ment is concerned, however, was can de-
note no material change.
In local professional circles there Is
still a tendency toward the selling side
From commission house circles there was
q moderate Improvement In the demand
today, but at no time did this demand
assume important proportions.
There can be little doubt but that con-
fidence was badly shaken. and 1t Will
take a little time to overcome the effect
of the bearish developments of the past
few weeks, such as the passing of divl-
bends. the price cutting in the automobile
industry, some poor corporate reports
and allowance must be made for further
reports that all will reflect the unsatis-
factory conditions of the past year.
The one favorable element has been the
easy money market, ample supplies OF
funds and reasonable rates.
We have no doubt but that at a IA
vorable time during the present year
we will have such proposals in refer
ence to merger as will appeal strongly
to the investing public and bring into
the market a demand that will result In
a prolonged period Of activity, but at the
present time we must deal with the tech
meal position of the market which, to US,
seems unsatisfactory and we are there
fore inclined to the opinion that for the
present it is still advisable to market
long stocks during strong market pc

MAY HAVE ToLTEc TREASURE
French Archaeological Said to Have
Taken Enormous Fortune From
Tomb Of Ancient King.

Students Of archaeology and kindred
subjects In Mexico are deeply inter
ested In a remarkable story which
comes from Colima. the capital Of the
state of that name, which borders
JaliscO.
According to the story, the French
archeologist, Count Brisac de Saint
Denis, while doing research work in
Mexico In 1910, came upon the tomb
Of an ancient Toltec king near the
town Of Comala, situated a short dis
lance from Colima. &
1t is circumstantially asserted in mar
rating this tale that In this tomb.
along with the mummified body of the
king, were dazzling collection Of
pearls, opals and gold dust OF an esti-
mated value of $10.OOO,OOO. 1t Is stated
that the count was able to get all this
enormous fortune out Of the country
and that 1t made him independently
wealthy.
An investigation Of the strange re-
port Is to be made by Mexican ar
cheologists. Beyond the fact that 1t is
well-known that the count really did
spend some time in investigating the
ancient ruins of a prehistoric race
near Comala, there is no authentic
public knowledge here that he made
any such discovery.-New York World.

st. Louis district.
The judgments were filed In suits
brought against the DE Jorrins by
Warren McConihe, lawyer, for money
lent Nine. de Jorrin and her hus-
band. In one suit he asked $3,233,
given to Sonora de Jorrin personally,
between December, 1919, and April,
1919, and In the other $4,000 given to
husband and wife in the spring Of
1919. He asked that both be punished
for contempt for refusing to obey
three court orders directing them to
testify before trial.
McConihe said that before he lent
the money to the De JOrrins ito save
their million dollar plantations from
bankruptcy" they lived in boarding
house in East Fifty-first street, but
when they got the funds they sailed
for Europe on trip to meet the king
and queen Of Spain and occupied the
most luxurious stateroom on the

Later they toured England, France,
Belgium, Italy. Switzerland and Spain.

Or the bank OF q crystal brook
In the naples breezy shade.

That were quarried long ago.

And a parchment folio.
Like leaves that are cracked with cold
All puckered and brown and scar.

Live the monarchs of the brain;
And the lords OF prose and rhyme.

Has come to the kings OF earth
And their names have passed away.
Rule on through death and birth;
And the thrones Of their domain
Are found where the shades are deep.

reIepathic seances Forbidden.

In Vienna there has recently been
widespread interest in public demon
STATIONS of telepathy and hypnotism.
But the effects upon spectators and
mediums were so bad that several
times they got into the courts. In one
case the hypnotist could not arouse
his medium from the trance; In others
actual crimes were attempted through
hypnotic influence, and many nervous
persons were seriously deranged.
In view Of these facts the board Of
Health has forbidden all such demon
STATIONS. Henceforth only physicians
will be licensed to use such methods,
and then only for treating their pa
tients. Commercialized sensational
ism is condemned as nuisance and is
to be stopped.
