STOCK TREND IN
 CURBHL0WER
Selling Pressure Against Oils Causes Drops Ranging Up
 To Six Points
By Tad

NEW YORK, Feb. 1s.-stock prices developed a reactionary trend in today's curb market when selling pressure de- veloped against the oil shares. Prairie Oil and Gas and Magnolia Petroleum each dropped 6 points, Imperial oil, B., and Standard oil of Indiana, Prairie Pipe, Continental and Cities Service, a point or so. Industrials held fairly steady during the morning, but event ually weakened with the rest of the list. Dubilier Radio and United Baker les Corporation each lost about 2 points on the day, the former rallying moder- ately above it's low price of the day Ward Baking "B" advanced nearly a point. E Mining shares held relatively firm with speculative interest centering in the Pennsy issues.
 The newly authorized stock of the P Lorrillard company was admitted to trading on a when issued" basis, but there were no transactions.

CHARGE AGAINST
 AVANT DROPPED
Federal Court Is Crowded At Hearing Of Former Dry
 Deputies

Byron Avant, one of four former fed eral employees on trial in United States court on charges of violating dry laws and embedding government property, was dismissed Monday evening when Judge w. 1. Grubb directed a verdict in his favor.
 Judge Grubb held that the evidence against Avant was insufficient. He or dered the jury to proceed with the trial of w. B. Ford, former assistant pro hibition director, and Lee Moody and John Wilson, former prohibition agents. The dry law charge aganist them was thrown out and they are being tried jointly on indictments charging em- be2zlement of government property.
 Sensational Testimony
 After day of sensational testimony, which was featured by charges that free gifts of liquor were made to federal at taches during the time Ford was assist ant dry chief, the case was nearly ready for the jury Arguments of counsel will begin early Tuesday.
 A crowded courtroom followed the trial. The defendants are represented | by Attorneys Fred Fite, Ernest Fite J. M. Pennington, J. J. Curtis and tht law firm of Coleman, Spain & Stewart Charles Kennemer, district attorney and his staff of assistants are directing the prosecution.
 Prominent Republican
 Ford is one of the best known repub, licans in the state. Prior to his indict- ment he was a leader in party affairs. He sat with his attorneys and eagerly followed the progress of the trial.
 R. B. Doe, a former federal attache, was the first witness. He testified that Ford and the other defendants had given him four quarts of liquor. He produced the liquor in court, saying he had anticipated an investigation and had kept it.

FIRST SUPPORT
 BILL:PRESENTED
Measure Provides $S2,O ,OOO a Year
 For Mississippi Confederate !.. Veterans Home

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 1S.-(Spe- cial.) .)-The appropriation committee claimed the right of. way in the lower house of the legislature this morning and presented the first of its support bills for state institutions, an appro- Ipriation of $S2,O0O per year for the Confederate home at Beauvoir. The house wrangled for more than an hour on the question of whether the super intendent shall be paid $2,500 or 8, 900 per year. The amendment to cut the salary was tabled.
 Next on 1.-the appropriation calendar Is the support bill for the insane hos pitfalls in Jackson and Meridian, fixed at practically the same as two years ago.
 In the senate Mir. Blair introduced bill making women eligible for jury service, but provided that they may ex- empt themselves by failure to report when summoned.
 F.. The senate passed bill straighten- | ing out the tangfe in the law of 14Z2 relative to fees of county officers and a measure providing that counties may work roads for distance not to ex- ceed two miles in contingent counties.
 Knox Shots0 Himself
 Russ Knox, attorney general of Mis- sissippi, may be corking good lawyer, but he is mighty poor hand at cleaning pistol. While engaged in Eoiling up an old weapon at the family residence Sunday afternoon, Mr. Knox let his finger slip to the trigger and a bullet penetrated his right leg just above the knee cap. An X-ray exami- nation shows that the bullet had in flicted only slight flesh wound. Rate Hike Proposed :. Traffic bureaus, chambers of com merce and shippers of the state have been notified by Bryce Alexander, pres l ident of the Mississippi railroad com mission, of proposal for increased rates on about 45 commodities shipped from western points and the suggestion is made that representatives of these various organizations gather in Jackson to discuss the proposal.

SENATE REJECTS l NEGROES NAME.
Confirmation Of N. L. Cohen As Comptroller At New
 Orleans Refused

WASHINGTON. Feb. 18-The nomination of Walter l.. Cohen, . negro, to be comptroller of customs at New Orleans, was rejected today by the Senate.
 The vote came after three hours discussion in executive session. Sena- tors Ransdell and Broussard, Louis isiana, renewed their objections to Cohens appointment on the ground that the nominee was personally ob- noxious to them and the debate cen tered largely on the question whether the Senate should follow the custom of rejecting nominations where such objections was raised by senator from the state where the nominee would hold office.
 Cohen, who formerly was chairman of the republican state committee, was nominated by President Harding but the Louisiana senators succeeded in blocking his confirmation at the last session of Congress. He was. renomi- mated early in this session by Presi- dent Coolidge H

COTTON LETTERS

NEY YORK, Feb. 1s.-strong cables,
 Liverpool and some trade buying on the opening caused an advance of over 60 points, which, however, immediately brought out heavy liquidation and short selling by speculative interests. The tone during the morning was nerv-
 ous and unsettled, as many felt, and rightly so. that the advance was near ly the reflection of temporarily strong technical position. A week stock mar ket and the continued depressing news from dry goods centers had an unset tifng Influence on the market, which
 caused further selling from New Orr leans and uptown catching many stop loss orders on the way down. Until the political and trade situation changes for the better extreme caution on the long side appears advisabie.-Post 6 FHagg, to shannon & Co. x <

 NEW YORK, Feb. 1S--The Liverpool market was sharply higher than ex.; pected this morning on rumors which could not be confirmed that the pros- poets pointed toward a settlement of the dock strike now taking place at all English ports. Naturally, after the de- cline of last week, our market ad- yanced in sympathy. but met a. steady flow of liquidation of cotton bought on the recent break. When the stock mar ket turned weak in the early afternoon, our market again sold off to around the 31-cent level ins sympathy with the de- cline in the securities market. The trade are badly mixed because they feel that statistically the market has no particular reason for decline, but on the other hand, they realize that so long as the security market shows signs of weakness. that we must be expected to see sympathetic selling by those who have been long on cotton for long while and who feel that 1t is we'll to ltquidate when weakness appears in the securities market. Any signs of i'm. provement in fthe stock market should cause sharp recovery in our market.

 NEW YORK, Feb. 1s.-French francs today dropped to a new record low level at 4.25c, decline of 12 points from Saturdays close. The fall was apparently based on the difficulties of the French government in forwarding it's fiscal program.

STOCK LETTERS

NEW YORK, Feb. 18.-Trading hal
 been active again today and after the
 first hour the market turned heavy once
 ites like Baldwin, Steel, Can, etc. The
 important news of the day has been the resignation of Secretary Denby and the acceptance of it by President Cool idge. AS yet, no adequate explanation has been given for such action at this time. It has, however, had an unset ting effect, as 1t has given rise to a new crop of rumors. The important matter, however, is the evident diff culty of effecting an enactment of the Mellon bill by Congress. The growing uncert ainty of this, together with the oil scandal is enough to unsettle any market and 1t Is not surprising that be- ginning last Friday the market has been heavy. At best this year, we have the un- certainties of a presidential election, but up until now this has been offset by confident expectation of adequate tax revision. If this expectation is to be re- moved, the market has an uncertain path ahead. The good point is the generally sound business and financial condition of the country. Sales, l. 345,000.-Post & Flagg to shannon X Company.
 STOCK LETTERS
 NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-Prices at the opening reflected buying by out of town interests and held for a while at about Saturdays closing levels. After the first hour such buying as there was ceased and small offerings appeared es- pecially In American Can, Baldwin and United States Steel. As prices faded offerings became larger and shortly afternoon pressure had become so great as to cause recessions of from to 4 points in the leaders. The support, which appeared on Saturday after Fri days break, failed to materialize up to the close, although there was some very good buying on scale down.
 Secretary Denbys resignation was re- ported and may have caused further uneasiness to those who have feared the political turn of events in connec- tion with the stock market. Whatever the cause there was no comeback to prices in spite of favorable business re- ports from all quarters. Total sales, 345,000 shares; final tone. weak at low est prices for the day.-Fenner and Beane to Kahn & Virgin.
