IMMIGRATION

Record 1922 Crop Attracts
Farmers From Many
Sections.

An optimistic outlook towards i'm
migration into Montana during fhe
1922 season is taken by e. C. Ieedv.
general immigration agent for the
Great Northern railway, who STONED
in Great Falls Wednesday night while
en- route to Helena to attend the ses-
sions of the Montana State Irrigation
congress. Montana's big crop in 1922
has attracted very general attention in
the mid-western territory from which
this state reasonably can expect to
draw new residents, he stated.
Mr.. Leedy feels the tide of west
ward immigration will get a substan-
tia1 start next spring and that il prob
ably will increase in volume during the
summer. Another crop year equal to
1922 would go a long ways towards

Benjamin Rumney heirs in a suit
brought against Fl. J. Skinner, it be-
came known when a jury's sealed yer
dict was opened in Judge H.. FL. Ew-
ing's department of the district court
Wednesday. The verdict was reached
Tuesday night after about five hours
deliberation.
The plaintiffs, Sarah T. Rumney
and five children, alleged that the de-
PENDANT defrauded them out Of their
ranch of 1,192 acres near Cascade as
the result of the deciding of the place
over to the Rumney Ranch company
in November, 1916. Mr.. Skinner held
a half interest in the ranch company,
which he testified was received in ex-
change for his ability to manage and
borrow money said to have been need
ed to carry on operations. The plain
tiffs sought $4,000 damages and $1O,-
600 punitive damages.

days Tribune saying it was understood

Great Northern here and the general
loosening of money generally.
During November, 1922, the coun-
ty aid grocery bill was $27, according
to the records in Auditor f. G. Roose-
velt's office. The same bill for No
vember of the previous year was $41O.
Coal expenditures for November,
1922, were $104. In November, 1921,
it was 1854. For October, 1922, gro
ceries cost 1915, coal $3.50. For Oc-
tober, 1921, the grocery bill was $349,
coal S296.
During January, 1922, the county dis
tributed $771 worth of groceries, in
February, S1,189; in March $3.50.
April 1851, May S1,249, June $1,147,
July $757, August S44S, and Septem-

The figures show a steady decline
in the outlay for groceries every

emphasizing the value of Montana
lands to prospective immigrants, Mr..
Leedy said. In Minnesota last fall he
found a community to which a number
Of former Montana residents had re-
turned, and in nearly every case re-
gret was expressed that the move from
Montana had been made.
The joint movement by the Great
Northern, Northern Pacific and Bur-
ington railways to. give extensive pub
licity to the northwest during a three
year starting next spring is
bound to have beneficial effect on
Montana, Mr.. Leedy stated. The pro-
gram calls for a publicity campaign
addressed especially to the general
public in the east, differing in this
regard from the individual effort made
in many instances by the immigration
department. Field men for the three
roads will be in Great Falls next Mon
day to confer with business men at a
luncheon meeting, but Mr.. Leedy will
be unable to attend.
The Great Northern's immigration
department is deyoting attention to
the colonization of all irrigation dis
tricts in Montana, Mr.. Leedy said, and
the company will continue to stress the
advantages Of irrigation farming. At
the Helena meeting Mr.. Leedy will
meet with many prominent irrigators
from Montana and other northwestern
states. ,,

Calls for county aid from Cascade
county families are one-half to two

Cook said Wednesday that he expected
the county expenditures to aid fam

date in 1928, to be not more than half
of what was spent during the previous

Referring to improved conditions in

BIG SHR|NKAGE IN
STOCK DEALINGS
General List Drifted SluggishIy
Within a Very Mar
row Area

New York. June S.--There was a
further slackening of speculative ac-
tivity in today's stock market with a
corresponding narrowing of fluctuations.
Although call money opened at the un-
usually low rate Of 81 per cent, deal
ings diminished steadily during the
morning, rejecting a growing disposi-
ton on the part Of the trading con
tingent. including both the professionals
and the outside interests. to wait on
pending developments before extending
their operations for the long or short
account.
RI anything. overnight developments
were Of a constructive type. Among the
more prominent events was the formal
announcement Of the details of the
three company independent steel mer.
ger. which. however was without pro.
nounced effect. The Street seemed to
be at n loss just how TO interpret the
attitude of the Reparatons Commits
sion toward the German loan. The
foreign exchange market was watched
with interest for some cue, but while
rates cased off to some extent from the
recent highs tire action Of the market
gave no particular lead.
The threatened strike of the railroad
workers continued to be received with
the same indifference. although the
rails became more irregular on apparent
profit taking in some Of the recent ac-
tive leaders Of the lower price issues.
The movement Of the division. how.
over. was sluggish like the rest Of the
list. Instances of the markets specu-
lative character included an extension

points and an abrupt decline of eight
points in Du pont. As matter of fact,

BUYING OF ?. R. 7.
Early Action Predicted for Res
toration Of Pennsy's 6 Per
Cent Dividend

P, II, r, retained the foremost posi-
ton in the local market and on active
buying made a new high record for the
year at 35K. The dealings were heavy,
including one block Of 1000 shares at
80. While the movement appeared to
be captained by new market repre-.
sentative. yet the tip was Thoroughly
circulated overnight to pick up the stock
for a five. point rise. The renewed
speculation undoubtedly had its basis
upon the semi official information that
a semi. annual dividend Of per cent
would be declared within a short time,
and. as stated yesterday, would be
payable on July 81.
Subsequent dividend, It was reiter..
ated, would be paid quarterly. ABOUT
the only fresh information concerning
the long awaited dividend was the
statement made by houses close to the
management to the effect the company
already had on hand more than sum :
cient funds to meet the 3 per cent, or
81. 80, share dividend requirements. A
fairly substantial volume Of dealings
was also recorded in Union Traction
with most OF the stock taken at AZ:
The semi annual dividend Of $1.bO

Of the buying today was for that div1-
dend.
Action of the Electric Storage Bat

former quarterly payment OF $3 on the
old stock was a great disappointment
and for once the ticker made an error.
The stock was sold rather freely. bring
ing a decline of nearly points from
yesterdays top price on the big board
to 43la. A number Of underlying buy
ing orders were reached on the sharp
decline, which brought q subsequent
rally to 44h Announcement was made
after the directors meeting that the
business of the company was excellent,
but the board were not prepared at this
time to consider any increase In the
dividend rate. 1
of the Pennsylvania Railroad direc-
tors Of an early action which regard to
restoration of the 6 per cent dividend
on that stock was, Of course. an en-.
with the statement made by Mr.. Rea at
the stockholders meeting. The trouble
was, however, many misconstrued Mr..
Cuyler, a statement to mean immediate
action. That undoubtedly was not his
intention as it is quite generally under.
stood in financial circles that the board
would be reluctant in making any
change in the dividend policy until the
gross income of the company reached
nearer to normal proportions.
The great Improvement, however.
which has taken place within the last
two months in the general traffic move.
ment has made the outlook much more
promising than it was in the early part
Of the year. If this Improvement ls
maintained: il the coal strike is set.
tied, and II the railroad workers do not
take drastic action against the wage re.
duction, there is every likelihood Of the
6 per cent dividend being restored be.
fore the close of the current year. Mr..
Cuyler's prediction of an early action
unquestionably meant within the same
six months period.
