PROSECUTION
NEARING END
In Rebuttal at Chicago Mur-
der Trial of Loeb
and Leopold

CHICAGO, Aug. 16 (By The Asso-
ciated Press) Tho prosecution to-
day neared the end of it's expert tes-
timony offered to rebut the deefnse
contention that mental disease in
Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard
Loeb, should mitigate the penalty
they must pay for kidnapping and
numbering Robert Franks.
Cross examination of DR.. IL.
Douglas Singer. mental pathologist,
was expected to consume all of to-
days half session. leaving only the
testimony of DIR. William c. Krohn,
"ace" of the states alienists, yet to
be adduced in the states attempts
to show the youths are normal and
should be given a death sentence.
Completion of all evidence in the
case by next Wednesday was fore
cast when Robert e. Grove, states
attorney decided not to call any of
the fifth lay witnesses he had ex-
pected to use to rebut testimony or
Loeb and Leopold relatives. Argu-
ments should be reached by We'd
nesday and require possibly four
days, attorneys said.
Gains were claimed by the state
yesterday in its attacks on the de-
fense plea for mitigation on the
theory that diseased endocrines,
childish phantasies and stunted emo
tional growths resulted in mental
sickness in Leopold and Loeb.
DR.. Rollin 7. Woodyatt, of Chi
cago, endocrinologist. and DR.. Singer
advanced conclusions directly oppos-
ed to those of the defense experts.
The former said that findings in the
report made by DR.. Carl Bowman
and Dr. II. S. Hubert, which indi-
Gated disordered functions of the en-
doctrines lacked anything to indicate
n disease of the endocrine glands"
DIR. Singer said the youths phan-
tastes are normal and that they dis
play normal emotions.

NEW YORK, March 3.--An-
nouncement of, a receivership, for
the Virginia; Carolina Chemical Com
pany, one bf the leading fertilizer
concerns, created considerable ir-
regularity in the first two hours
trading on the stock exchange to-
day. Although this action was
foreshadowed by the recent ire
mendous decline in the stock and
bonds of the company, it provided
the bears with fresh material,
inasmuch as it drew attention to
shares Of other industries in which
trade developments are not particu-
larly rosy, especially rubbers and
tires.
News of the embarrassment was
received shortly before the opening
and resulted in placing of large
selling orders in the issues affected.
Preferred broke to 7B, off points
from Saturdays final and 276s
points from the high of 1927
reached six weeks ago.
Whatever buoyancy was displayed
in last weeks final session was dis
PEELED by the receivership announce
ment, although 1t must be admitted
that constructive activity was also
hampered by renewed bonus talk
and reports that the oil inquiry dur.
ing the next two weeks will reveal
a new set Of sensational develop
ments. Petroleums in this connec-
ton were under moderate pressure,
while Kelly-Springfield and United
States Rubber which were the tar
get Of the bears on Saturday were
again heavily sold. -
1t could not be said, however,
that reactionary tendencies in spe-
cial stocks could be easily com:
municated to other parts Of the list.
Prices as a rule were somewhat
lower, but the same absence of
liquidation that characterized trad
ing last week was evident in this
mornings dealings. In some in
stances, in fact, certain degree of
strength was shown. Coppers, for
example, were inclined to do better
in response to a firmer tone in the
metal market. Cast Iron Pipe and
Fisher Body, whose movements are
controlled by the same interests
were remarkably strong.
Railroads did little, showing a
slightly sagging trend in sympathy
with the rest Of the market.

!, NEW YORK. March 3.-Of the
e12,564.22O industrial ana utility
bonds called for payment in advance
Of maturity in March,. all but two
issues aggregating $4.4S2 400 have
been paid. and the remaining issues
have been provided for out of pro.
ceeds OF bonds sold earlier in the
year. II ,z:s,
This removes from the bond mar
ket the necessity Of devoting any
attention to the refunding of issues
Of this character, in which respect
the market Of the last few months
have been in sharp contrast with
that Of late 1922 and the first part
Of 1928. A great deal Of the short.
term financing in 1920 and 1921, at
the high money rates then prevail
ing, was timed" to mature two or
three years hence, when the swing
Of the money market would be ex-
pected to carry rates comparatively
lower.
Also in anticipation Of that change
in the money situation, long -term
bonds were issued with "callable"
features, permitting the issuing cor
porations to pay them off before
their due dates. In some cases the
conditions specified the payment Of
a premium Of from s to Is per cent
for exercising the privilege Of prior
redemption, while in others, where
the credit standing was high, the
redemption price was placed at par.
While the financing. OF called bond
issues did not add to the bonded
debt of the corporations under re.
view, it did involve considerable
activity on the part Of the under
writer's and bond dealers, and en-.
ployed investment funds which
might have gone into other chan
nels. 1t was partly responsible for
the indigestion in the bond mar
ket' complained of so frequently
by bond houses. 1t was the after
math of a long period Of confused
financial and industrial conditions
for which the war was directly re-
sponsible.
Return to normal conditions in
world politics and world trade will
eventually solve the problems Of
both international and domestic
finance.

RAIL EARNINGS
NORMAL IN
1928
- III"
First Good Year OF Business
Since the End Of
the War.
By w. s. COUSINS,


Copyright. 1924. by Cosmopolitan News
~ Service.)
NEW YORK, March S.--The year
1928 was the first real normal year
of American railroad, operation, by
the arrangements of the respective.
lines, since the end Of the war.
The financial results Of that opera
ton should, therefore, give a fairly
idea Of the earning
capacities of the carriers under
normal business conditions.
While the 1923 freight business
of the country was unusually
heavy, as compared with the two
to three years preceding, there is
no reason to look for any great
shrinkage from the high records es-
tablished last year, and, therefore,
the railroads should be in position
to reap as large a harvest as in the
year under review. With little or
no shrinkage in gross revenue, ana
with reduced operating expenses, re-
sulting from increased efficiency in
management, the railroads systems
should show continuous improVel
ment in net earnings.
Net earnings of prominent divi-
dent paying railroads in 1928, as
compared with those Of 1922, are
presented in the following table. AS
official annual reports are not yet
available, the compilations for 1928
are made from monthly statements,
