FINANCIAL REVIEW.

French exchange today retracted part
of the ground lost on Monday. the
heavy selling of French and Belgian
government securities was suspended
and there was slight recovery in the
French issue. As a reflection Of bank
ing Judgment, therefore, regarding the
European situation and its probablD
sequel. the markets today were not OF
much Importance.
The security markets had paid little
attention on the previous days TO the
weakness in the exchanges and the
breai in foreign government bonds. In
other words they had not been indiffr-
ent but simply composed in face Of the
apparently disturbing events in Ger
many. Not having been the major in
fluence in the situation here, there was
no reason why the seemingly somewhat
more favorable newspapers today should
have been tn important factor in the
movement of prices. As a result the
stock market was strong early in the
day then began TO hesitate a bit. But
not because Of anything in the outside
news. simply because il was q very
narrow professional market and as such,
subject TO very little fluctuaitnO either
way.
The trade news of the day was fay-
Orable. There were more reports OF a
isolated nature. but nevertheless signi-
ficant Of makers of steel products put
ting up their quotations. There was
positive evidence that some Of the lead
ing users of copper metal had been
turned down fatty when they bid L.
cents pound for delivery next sum
mer. The advance in crude rubber con-
tinued. It was quoted at 81 cents
pound against 30 cents less than q veekl
ago and at this new figure was con-
siderably more than double the price
last year at this time.

LEVIATHAN GOES AGROUND ON REEF
First And Second Class Pas SengerS Taken Ashore Be-
 fore Ship Is Floated
By HARLAN S. MILLER CLeased Wire to The Age-HeraId)

ABOARD $. $. LENIATHAN, Dec. 21.-(By Wireless.) )-After perching ignominously for seven hours on the worst mud reef in New York harbor the liner Leviathan floated free at dusk when the rising tide, aided by a score of tugs, pushed her free from the clutch of silt
 By that time ali her first and sec ond cabin passengers had been fer ried to the pier in tenders, and of the S30 passengers on the Leviathan's list only the third cabin immigrants re- mained to wonder what was delaying their entry to An-ericaP
 As the incoming tide lapped higher and higher about the ship and eased the grip of the reef, a dozen tugs pushed manfully against the speeding surrent to save the great bulk from swinging against the rocks of Rob- bins reef, shaving off the big 50-foot stone buoy that warns ships away and possibly from smashing a dan gerous hole in her side.
 Pilot Joseph Bigley, who was at the wheel said:
 We approached the wicked Rob- bins reef closer than usual, but still with plenty of clearance" the pilot continued.
 Suddenly, with my hands on the wheen, l felt a surge of ebb tide against her port side, such as I have no felt in this harbor in many years. l saw that this force would send her nosing into the steep under ground hill of mud which leads sharply upward to the buoy.
 T signaled instantly for full speed astern with the starboard engine, and that turbine was promptly reversed. But 1t answered weakly and did not back the ship away sufficiently from the mud bank.

FRANK COBB DEAD: FAMOUS EDIT OR
Long A Leading Journalist And Advisor Of Woodrow
 Wilson During War

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-Frank l. Cobb, editor of the New York World for 12 years, died Friday at his Fifth avenue home here after an illness of several months.
 His death removes one of the out standing figures of American jour- nalism, a man who, behind the veil of editorial anonymity. has shaped the policies of a great newspaper for almost a decade.
 His active life was intimately con nected with the making of American history in the past 20 years. His greatest work. possibly, came in the war years. when he was one of Wood row Wilson's most trusted advisors.
 Frank Irving Cobb was born in Shawnee county, Kan. on August 6. 1869. His early youth was spent there under pioneer conditions. Later his father, a native of central New York state. moved to the lum- Der woods region of Michigan, where Cobb attended the Michigan State Normal school.
 At the age of 21 he became a re- porter on the Grand Rapids, Mich, the Grand Rapids Eagle. At 25 he became q political correspondent for the Detroit Evening News, and after wards an editorial writer on the same paper. He was barely past 80 when he became leading editorial writer on the Detroit Free Press.

SOVIET CHALLENGE FLUNG AT HUGHES
TchitCherin Wants Documents Produced Before Any Im-
 partial Court
Fly JOHN GRAUDENZ heaSed Wire to The Age-He

MOSCOW. Dec. 21-Foreign Min ster Tchitcherin of Russia has Challenged Secretary Hughes to pro- duce before any impartial court of arbitration" the documents presented As communist propaganda for an American revolution.
 He declares that unless Hughes does this the Secretary of State twill show the world he consciously made himself instrumental in broad casting forged documents
 Tchitcherin demands the "uncon- ditional withdrawal of the docu- ments if they are not submitted to a tribunal, and declares it is up to Secretary Hughes to acquit himself" of charges that papers are forged.
 The soviet minister issued his challenge in a statement Friday after he had read the full text of the docum published in America, and had conferred with the com munist international, whcih was said to have sent the revolutionary in- structions.
 Gregory Zinoviev, president of the communist international, declares the documents are forgeries, as does Stekloff editor of the newspaper Isvestia. which the documents quot ed as showing connection between the lntern2tlOnal, as the pTopdBduua organization of the communist party and the Russian government.
 Having acquainted myself with the contents of the Hughes docu- ments, I communicated with Zinoviev and Stekloff," Tchitcherin said Fri day. "On behalf of the soviet gov ernment, as well as Zinoviev and Stekloff l emphatically declare that the documents are an unmitigated forgery, like the infamous 'Sisson papers.
 (The Sisson papers were docu- rnents made public in America in the fall of 1918, by the committee of public information. They were ob- tained in Moscow by Edgar Sisson of the committee, and stated that Lenine and Trotzky were paid agents of the German government.)
 q challenge Secretary Hughes, failing the conditional withdrawel of the documents. to produce them before any impartial court of arbi- tration. jointly agreed upon" Tchit- cherin said By failing to do this Secretary Hughes will show the whole world he consciously made himself instrumental in broadcasting forged documents"
 Tt is up to Secretary Hughes to aeauit himself of these charges, Tchitcherin added.

ARKANSAS STRIKE: l
 SETTLED AT LAST
Brings To An End One Of The StormieSt Labor Disputes
 In History

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Dec. d. Settlement today of the Missouri and North Arkansas railroad strike, bringing to an end one of the storm jest labor disputes in the history of this state, attended by disorders which eliminated in the burning of bridges, the hanging of one man, suspension of operations at one time for period of nine months, the for nation of law and order committees. and, finally, the appointment of legislative committee to investigate conditions generally along the line of the road.
 The strike began February 26, 1921, when union employees refused to ac- cept a reduction of wages ordered by C. A. Phelan, federal receiver. For several months the road was operated on an "open shop" basis. Disorders followed and on August 4 the man agement of the road announced It could not continue operation because of expense incident to the strike.
 Operation was resumed on May l, 1922, again under the open shop plan, after the strikers had refused to ae- cept terms offered by J. c. Murray, who had succeeded Phelan as receiver and manager. Interference with train service developed quickly, however, and became so serious late in 1922 that the management announced 1t would again be forced to suspend op- erations. Early in January of this year half dozen bridges were burned in less than a week and resi- dents along the line of the road or ganized a law and order league at mass meeting held in Harrison on January 16. A "citizens committee" also was formed and the committee undertook to. question strikers re- garding alleged acts of sabotage.
 E. c. Gregor, one of those brought before the committee, declined to give information to the committee He later disappeared and his body was found hanging from a railroad bridge the following morning. The committee disclaimed responsibility for the death of Gregor and continued it's investiga- tion.
 After the occurrence strikers fled Harrison by scores and charges were made that many of them had been deported.
 Gov. T. c. McRae recommended that the legislature name committee to investigate the death of Gregor and activities by both sides. The inves- tigation was ordered and committee devoted nearly a week to the ques- tioning of witnesses at Harrison. The committee fixed no blame for Gregors death, but stated that there had been lawlessness on both sides.
