mas set. up his throne in Manhattan
Money pours through the marts of the
torn in a golden stream. The people
are spending with hands more lavish
than in the heydays of the world war
Residents of the city are joined daily
BY thousands of visitors from other
cities just as eager apparently as the
Manhattanites to join in the rush to
buy, and it matters not whether the
purchase be food, clothing or amuse,
ment.
New York recently spent more than
a million and a quarter dollars on a
prize fight. The baseball world series
closes with receipts of million or
more. Some Of the sharpers before
the season began said there was no
interest in baseball this fall. They
overlooked the power and the desire
of the people to spend.
On Saturday next Mt Belmont Park
comes the famous international horse
race between Papyrus and Zev. The
hackers of the match are counting
upon n 100000 gate. They are just;
fled in this by an advance sale which
already has reached half that amount.
And the prices they are going to
charge. Twenty-Five dollars apiece for
the best seats. 1t will be the first time
in history that the public ever paid
such a price to see Il horse race. They
pay that much to see a prize fight.
the racing people argue. so why not
for n horse race? The advance sale
shows that their reasoning was infalli.

"HOLD-UPS" REPORTED

A wholesale investigation Of JUS
tees of the peace, constables, deputy
constables and county motorcycle
officers was under way by the Ninety
fourth District Court grand jury
Tuesday morning. This was disclos-
ed when the corridor on the third
floor Of the court house, leading to
the grand jury room, was thronged
all Tuesday morning. The officers,
1t is believed, were answering grand
jury subpoenaes.
The action of the grand jury, it
is understood, follows the charge gi,c
that body last Thursday by Judge
w. w. McCrory. Judge McCIuy
had called the inquisitorial body into
the court room to instruct it to fare
up the investigation of the complaints
filed against city and comfy officials
by state rangers.
a magazine with a large circu!a-
ton, Judge McCrory told the grand
jurors, recently published an article
wherein tourists complained that they
had been "held IN" by motorcycle
officers in Bexar county, in the
vicinity of San Antonio. Such an
article, Judge McCrory said, would
do untold damage to San Antonio and
if such q practice is being engaged in
by county officers, he urged the
grand jury to take immediate action.
Says Prosecutions Illegal.
Judge McCrory twice before lad
instructed the grand jury to invcsti-
gate the county justices and con-
stables, expressing the belief that
motorists were being stopped on coun-
ty roads and prosecuted for exceeding
the speed limit when he believed they
really were not guilty. The state
law on country roads the Ninety
fourth District Court judge pointed
out, is 81 miles an hour, and he
stressed the fact that the law means
just that and not 20 miles an hour.
Some country constable, It has been
claimed, have been setting "speed
traps" in small communities and
prosecuting motorists on the theory
that the 20 mile limit applied there.
The srand jury completed It's in

Barton had sought to have indicted,

MOTORCYCLE OFFICER
JUMPS 8 FEET WHEN
DEAD MAN KICKS HIM
In Darkened Room Alone
When Corpse Delivers
Hefty Boot.

Motorcycle Policeman Dietzmen has
never flinchcd in the discharge of his
duty, regardless of the perilous task
that might confront him.
Yet, when a dead man kicked him,
he made an eight-foot. flat-footed jump
that cleared bed and carried him
from n darkened room where he had
found the corpse.
The incident occurred Sunday. The
tale may be dovbted, but the San
Antonio officer vouches for its ve.3city
without reservation. IA.
Officer Dietzmen, tells it like this :
Captain Browa detailed him on the
case. when a telephone message told
of dead man being found ina room,
He found the. corpse, in a 'stiffened
condition. lying on the. floor when he
tentered the room. which he described
as dark. dreary and lonesome. He
was alone in the place witllifle dead.
"The man. Ilearned later, had died
from natural .calises," said Officer
Dietzman. "but. of course, / did not
know that at the time. l was search
ing for a wound. ! thought he mSy
have shot himself. i turned. the body
partly over. At the same time l
CHANGED to see "a bottle lying on the
bed. l thought the bottle may have
been poison. Thoughtlessly. | released
the body and turned to walk to the
bed and investigate the contents of the
bottle.
"Then." said the officer, lit hap
pened. I had just taken one step.
when the stiffcncl remains topp!ed

falling back. the dead cams foot kick.

surprise l just hopped flat-footed

Every justice of the peace in the

be no particular attraction. The peo.
pie are out for good time and are
coming to New York to have it.
"Of course, the worlds series al
ways attracts large crowd. but we
have been filled to overflowing for
weeks" .e. -s
Theaters Always Filled.
The first demand ut the hotels is
always for the more expensive rooms.
Patrons ordinarily cOntented with n
room and bath are asking this fall
for suites. 1t is difficult for the man.
ayers to satisfy them with less.
4 All of the better attractions at the
theaters have the ."standing room
only" signs out nightly. This applies
also to the movie places, where they
charge you 81 and So for seat.
The more exclusive and expensive
of the shops appear to be doing the
greatest volume of business and from
them come reports that the women
shoppers are buying only the most
costly models. The lower-priced gar
ments. hats and other articles of femi-
nine apparel are drugs on the mar
ket.
Among the people at large money
never has appeared to be easier or
more plentiful than today. New apart
ment houses which charge from $4,000
to $4,000 n year for from four to six
rooms are the first to fill up.
The lower grades of apartment
houses are being deserted. Why should
not this be the case when bricklay.
ers are getting from S14 to SIS day
and other crafts are being paid in
When New York feels the pressure
Of great sums of spending money this
EARLY in the season gay winter al
ways is ahead. The coming winter
bids fair to break all previous records.

GERMAN FOOD LOAN
APPROVED BY U. S.
Government Ready to Waive
Pay on Army Occupation
to Feed Teutons.

German proposals that the repara-
tion commission authorize the floating
of loan by Germany to cover food
stuff purchases are assured of the
moral support of the United States.
The only connection of the Wash
ington government with the matter
will be. however, an expression
through James A. Logan, American
observer on the commission, of the
willingness of this government that
priority should be extended to such a
loan.
Assent of the United States to the
food loan project is necessary since
this government has rights of prior
ity in connection with reimbursement
for army of occupation costs. 1t is
emphasized that the Washington al
ministration desires that every prop
er measure of relief should be extend
ed TO help the German government meet
the present food shortage situation.
The German representatives are
expected to ask the repara.ions COM
mission for authority to float a loan
up to approximately s70.000;O0O, and
1t Is believed that about half of that
amount will be offered to American
investors. Since the possibility of
floating such a loan would lie abb
Solutely dependent upon priority over
general reparations payments due
from Germany, the whole projec- de-
pends upon the approval OF the
reparationS commission of the Ger
man request that the food loan be
given a favored status to meet the
emergency.
Under the VERSAILLES treaty the
reparationS commission has authority
to grant priority of special loans over
the fixed reparations schedules.
The position of the Washington
government with relation to the pro
posed food loan is that the situation
in Germany requires emergency ac-
tlon to prevent widespread famine
Because of that condition, the United
states Is ready to set aside, tempo
rarlly, It's claims for reimbursement
of its army of occupation costs while
the German government attempts to
obtain the funds for creation of a
revolving fund to be used in the pur-
chase outside OF Germany of food
supplies.
