BARRIERS Not Allowed
To Charge For
Trimmings

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-If 20
cents is the fixed tariff for a
shave in a barber shop, that is all
a barber in the place may charge
a patron who asks for nothing
but shave.
This was the ruling Of Magis-
trate Oberwager in Tombs court
yesterday, imposing a fine Of $25
on Anthony Santore, barber, at
298 Broadway.
Santore was arrested recently
on complaint Of A. w. MORT,
manager of the Woodstock
Typewriter Company. He failed
to tip the barber who shaved
him and when he gave Santore
so cents he received only 20
cents change.
MORT caused Santore's ar
rset, alleging the proprietor
told him that when patrons
failed to tip, the amount was
added to their charge, as bar
bers would not work without
tips.
in court Santore denied this.
saying the additional 10 cents
was for a hot towel and other
special attention.

Rally Follows Weak Opening,

News Service.)

News Service.)
NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Firming
tendencies following a heavy opening
characterized the first two hours
trading on the stock exchange today.
The market was greeted with an &C.
emulation of selling orders over the
weekend, the result of apprehension
felt over the foreign situation. The
possibility of a break in the entente,
due to Frances unyielding attitude
and England's threat to deal sepa-
rately with Germany in the matter
of reparations, created some uneasi-
ness, which was also reflected in the
foreign exchange market, in which
French francs dropped to a new
low for the year. Selling pressure
soon exhausted itself, however, and
prices rebounded quickly on only a
small amount of buying.
The fact that unfavorable items
IN the foreign news received so little
attention was a constructive devel-
opment, indicating the market
sold-out condition and the disposi-
ton among traders to view the do
nestle situation hopefully. Much
confidence was placed in President
CooIidge's ability to prevent the
threatening coal strike, whereas the
agricultural situation was regarded
more optimistically than for some
time past.
The low prices for the morning
Yere seen in the first fifteen min
htes Of trading. The ensuing rally,
which lifted prices above Saturdays
closing, was not fully maintained
and with the approach of the noon
hour the list became somewhat ir-
regular, due to the resumption of
bearish activities in special stocks.
Rubber and tire issues were under
renewed attack on persistent ru-
mors of impending price reducticrs.
and some Of the oil shares felt the
influence of the gasoline price-war
now going on in Western territories
On the other hand, Central Leather
was about a point higher. due to
short covering, and stocks like
Woolworth and National Biscuit ap-
peared to be we'll bought.
Railroad stocks showed firmness
at the start, but gains were lost be-
fore the session was well under way.
Erie issues reacted on profit-taking.
Call money renewed at Az per
cent.
