WALL STREET STOCK
 EXCHANGE REPORTS

The advance in yesterdays market brought large volume of overnight selling orders which gave a firm tone to opening prices today. Tho initial demand was most effective in the rail. steel, equipment, rubber, sugar and motor shares. General Electric ad- vanced a point and was followed into higher ground by Baldwin. |. S. Steel. Studebaker. Crucible and Amer ican Sugar all of which opened frac- tionally higher.
 continued into the afternoon. Over score of industrialists and special ties were quoted beyond yesterdays final figures with California Pet, Stewart and Marine pfd. scoring the largest advances.
 Marking up of the call money re- newal rate to 5H per cent failed to halt the operations of spectators for the advance who apparently based their campaign on the excellent show ing made in the latest series of 1929 earnings statements. Buying was quite diversified but recent favorites such as the sugars. motors, motor ac- cessories and equipments were fore most in the rise. Considerable activ- ity also developed in shippings which had been dormant for long time. N. Y. Central was an outstanding ex- ception dropping point on the an- nouncement that directors had de- ferred action until the next meeting.

PICKS WATERY GRAVE
War Hero, Mentally Unbalanced, Jumps Overheard From Ocean Liner and is Drowned.

New York, March William Slidell, of Boston, member of an old Louisiana family, whose grand father figured in the Mason and Sli- dell incident with Great Britain dur ing the Civil war, committed suicide Monday by leaping from the steamer Providence, the captain reported when the vessel arrived here today from French and Italian ports. Wit nesses of the tragedy told the captain Slidell appeared to have been suffer- ing from a hallucination.
 Slidell was graduate of Prince ton, class of 1901, and held two war decorations.
 Slidell was the grandson of John Slidell, American political leader and diplomat. who while he was Confeder- ate commissioner to France was taken from the British steamer Trent with James M. Mason. the Confederate commissioner to England, by Captain Charles Wilkes of the United States navy.
 This occurred in 1861. Slidell was imprisoned at Fort Warren in Bos- ton harbor but was released in Jan uary, 1862, at the demand of England, He proceeded to France to obtain rec ognition of the Confederate states but failed. He remained in England after the war and died in London in 1871.
 Slidell had villa near Marseilles.
 Slidell left several letters, among them missives addressed to the cap tain and other ship officers, declaring that he was being bounded by unnam- ed persons and asking that an investi- gation be made if anything happened to him.
 Captain Marcantette said Slidell had been acting in a peculiar manner for several days and that he had two phy- sicians examine him, both of whom reported that he was unbalanced and suffering from Authorizations.
 The captain then detailed several members of the crew to keep an eye on him.

.PDL|C D|SPLEASED
 WITH BULLF|GHTS
Fs Angry Because No Spanish
 Ills Had Been Contracted For


 e Tdexico City, March 14,-The bull
 Int season in Mexico City has come if Ian inglorious end several weeks be- p re scheduled time, with the manage v ent in disfavor, the toreadors dis j. .tisfied. and the public in general
 isgruntled. "El Torco" arena has
 cen turned over to prize fights and grand opera, and the sports loving public, if it desires to see bullfights must tourney to other cities in the republic where corridas will be con- tinued until the latter part of March. The situation is causing more discus sion and speculation than riot or revo- lution of almost any magnitude could command.
 Grumblings Begin.
 Grumblings against the local man. agement started early last fall when 1t was discovered that no Spanish bulls considered the best fighters in the business, had been contracted for the Mexico City corridas. Native stock is good, but Spanish bulls are better. Then, Rodolfo Caona, the idol of Mexican bullfight fans, had an off sea- son. He committed the unpardonable sin several months ago of being un- able to kill his bull and of allowing the animal to be returned to the cor ral. His former worshippers turned to jeer him and, after another futile effort to regain his popularity Rodol- 10 suddenly announced that he would never again appear in a Mexico City arena. His decision put decided ,rimp in the sport, which received another blow when Marcial Lalanda, considered the best product of Spain this year, announced that he, too. would abstain from fighting in the Mexican capital. With Gaona and [.anada out of the game and others ,f the lesser fighters showing slight indication to please. the management decided to close the season premature y. It was even hinted that there was , we'll contrived conspiracy to discred- t Gaona and Lalanda in favor of oth- ,r matadors who were seeking to re- place the top-notchers.
 At any rate, the season closed dur ng the latter days of February and sport writers are serious in predicting hat if Nthe season next year is no better, bullfighting in Mexico will be Tn abandoned sport.

Head of ASsiniboinc Tribe Passes On To the Happy Hunting Ground
 of Tribe

Regina, Sask., March 14.---Death re- gently at Indian Head of Chief Carry The Kettle, head-chief of the Assini- boine tribe, at the age of 107 years, marks the passing into the Happy Hunting Ground of one of the oldest and most renowned Indian chieftains on the American continet.
 Following the time -honored custom of the tribe, the chief was buried on the reserve at high noon, February 19. The service was conducted ac- cording to Christian rites by Rev. M. Broughall. of the Presbyterian Indian Mission, the aged Indian having em- braced the Christian faith more than forty years ago.

He was the oldest e-frontier chief still ruling his people north or south of. the bor- der in the northwest country. He was leading the Assiniboines to war while Sitting Bull and Poundmaker were still in their infancy
 He was one of the few survivors of the smallpox epidemic of 1888, which all but wiped out the powerful Assini- boine tribe, having reduced them from 1, 200 to 400 lodges.
