DIDN'T FOOL THE CONDUCTOR
Train Official Seldom Deceived by
Travellers Who Imagined They APP
peared Used to Luxuries.

The Woman had never been in a
compartment on train before. She
must confess this bit of luxurious ig-
norance. She was seated comfortably,
reading and looking out of the window
alternately, and greatly enjoying the
privacy when she heard buzzing
sound. Again and again 1t sounded.
Doubtless the people in the next COM
partment ringing for the porter.
And then came knock at the door.
II hope / didn't disturb you," the
conductor said as he asked for the
WOman's ticket.
"Oh, no, was just sitting here read
ing and admiring the scenery"
"Oh," the conductor said, II wonder
If the bell doesn't ring"
"The bell?' Then the Woman under
stood that that had been the buzzing
she had heard.
"Im afraid I'm very ignorant" she
admitted. 1--WE never been in a COM
partmenet before, and / didn't know
you rang to come in."
But the conductor was not Mortified
at the smallness of her knowledge.
I'm glad to hear you admit it,
lady," he said. There's lots who have
never been in q compartment, but they
wouldn't admit it for worlds. We know
when they're not used to 'em. They
can't fool us, but you're the first I've
met who hasn't foolish pride. Chi

and Dull in Closing Ses-

BY GEORGE T.. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, April 21.-Foreign
bonds were firm In an otherwise dull
and reactionary market today. Trad
ing was on small scale during the
two hours of business.
Naturally enough it was the specu-
lative bonds that lost the most
ground, the decline being a reflection
OF the weakness in stocks. Such is
sues as Seaboard Air Line 6s were
In supply. 1t is in bonds like these
that speculation has cen.erod I'm tie
last few weeks. The Seaboard's earn
ings have shown consistent improve
ment and on the basis of the Febru-
ary statement it is estimated that
charges. including interest on the ad-
justment bonds, will be covered this
year.
Other speculative railroad bonds
moved irregLlarly.
In bonds OF higher grade there were
fractional declines. There was little
change in the high grade bonds, and
liberties were quiet and steady.
Among the foreign bonds French IS
and French TVS equaled their high
of Friday and then reacted slightly.
CZechoslovakia SIS sold a little below
the high of yesterday. Mexican 5s
advanced.
Among the days gains the feature
was an advance of 2 points in Punta

DOMESTIC BUTTER
PRICES IN TUMBLE
New Low Level. Reached During
Week Due to Heavy Sup
plies on Hand.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 21-Excessive
stocks Of foreign butter caused the
domestic butter market to become
very weak this week. Prices broke
sharply to new low level for the
season. Trading was marked by
frantic selling on the part of those
who had a surplus and indifference
on the part of buyers.
Efforts to find a level where the
consumptive demand would be Suffi-
ciently increased to absorb the cur
rent receipts were regarded as the
cause of the declines during the
week.
From a statistical standpoint it was
rather difficult to understand the
weakness. Production showed only
slight increases and the receipts at
the four markets did not show in
creases that might indicate such a
sharp break. Withdrawal from stor-
age was small. Offerings of cargo
of New Zealand butter, first at New
York, where it was refused. and then
at Boston, had a disastrous effect.
The butter markets on 80 score
stock at the four leading trade CEN
ters closed yesterday as follows:
Chicago, 421a; loss, ~ points. New
York, A; loss, 2Ro9ints Boston. A;
loss, 8 points. Philadelphia, "A; loss,
