ENTRANCE PAPERS
FORGED, NJ 'DONELL
BARRED At COLLEGE

WASHINGTON, Feb 22.-Frank
Mcdowell, who is waiting trial in
Florida as the confessed slayer of
his parents and two sisters. was not
the child prodigy he represented him
self to be here and elsewhere, but was
dishonorably dismissed from George
Washington university after his fail
ure as a student disclosed that he
had been admitted upon forged ma
circulation papers.
Only a few officials at George
Washington university knew Nc
Dowell had been driven from the
class rooms with dishonor. and to
his many acquaintances here he was
known as the boy genius who COM
pleted his collegiate course at the age
Of sixteen and was already d bud
ding author. AS a matter of fact his
position in Washington was that Of
check boy at the Library of Congress.
Mcdowell first registered at George
Washington university in 1921 for
eight different courses, embracing
mostly economies. political economy
and commerce. He withdrew before
matriculating that year, but in
March, 1922, presented a certificate
from Emory university, in Atlanta,
crediting him with three full years
of the most highly satisfactory work.
i4u ict, h
resented himself as eighteen years
old, although in fact he was year
younger.
The boy was Immediately admitted
to the senior class, but soon began
to show his lack of training. He
failed in three of his studies and re-
ceived only a fair average in the
fourth, having chosen only four sub.
jects upon his second registration.
He was asked to withdraw from the
university, and in the meantime,
their suspicious aroused, officials
queried Emory university heads as
to McDoWell's true record there.
Their reply was that he had com
pleted less than one-quarter OF a
semester lneFe, ndu TecelVeu no Cleu-
its and had proved only a fair stu
dent 1t was then learned that at
the time he was supposed to have
been graduated from the high school
in Decatur, Ga, where he and his
family lived for while. he was re-
siding in a far distant city.
Mcdowell was promptly denied
the opportunity to withdraw from
George WASHINGTON university and
was dishonorably dismissed.

CHICAGO (Monday), Feb. 25-
Wheat was heavy in tone today.
There was little interest taken in the
market by outsiders and the local
trade was much reduced in volume.
A lack of buying power, rather
than any aggressive selling, was the
cause fc the decline shown. The
decline in Liverpool in response to
the firm close in North America, was
disheartening to the bulls, and a few
of them disposed of their holdings at
the opening. A few resting or
ders to buy May at $t.10 S-4 halted
the decline temporarily, but when
these were filled the price dipped
again.
Seaboard reported 100000 bushels
of wheat worked for export late last
week. Liverpool reported dock work
ers' strike ended. Milling demand
for wheat was better. Visible supply
decreased 335, 900 bushels last week.
Primary receipts were much smaller.
Weather was seasonable.
Wheat closed 5-S cent lower. May
81 10 3-S to IL; July $1.10 "a: Sep
tember $1.10 rs.
Com scored a good advance early,
but prices reacted in the later trad
ing. There was good commission
house buying and local professionals
were using forcing tactics on the
bull side. There was pressure 70
sell on the advance because of the
decline in wheat. Cash corn dis
counts were wider on the lower
growers, but the top grades met
ready sales at unchanged basis.
Shipping demand was light, but ex-
porters were after corn.
Corn closed IA to 1-2 cents high
er. May so "a to IS; July 81 Is to
IL: September 81 1-2.
Oats were featureless with prices
showing little change. Shipping de-
mand was slow. Provisions higher

better trade in bellies.

COTTON

NEW YORK. Feb. 25.-Conflictln&
influences were indirectly at work
In the cotton market during today's
early trading. The opening was
steady at decline of five points
to an advance of sixteen points.
March was under considerable pres
sure of. liquidation in preparation
for possible notices tomorrow, ana
this had an unsettllng effect on the
general list, although some of the
March sellers were rebuyirg In later
months, and there was considerable
buying of new crop positions on re-
ports of unfavorable weather in the
south.
The market was also impressed by
the increased spot sales reported IN
Liverpool, partly for export and bet
ter advices from Manchester. After
selling up from 30.12 to 90.45 for
Nav or about thirty-three points net
higher. prices eased off several
points from the best owing to con-
tinued near month liquidation and
was rather unsettled during the
first hour.
The reaction from the early ad
vance carried the market off to 29.9o
for May and 26.43 for October, MAX
ing new declines of about to II
points under New Orleans, southern.
local and Wall Street selling! No
fresh news factor appeared to be
connected with this decline, how
ever, and the market became quiet
and steadier later. May rallied to
30.06 and active months generally
held within a few points OF Satur-
days closing quotations at midday,
Has a. M bids steady March, 29.63c;
May. 30.01c; July, % 42c; October, 26.60c;
December, 26.12c.
The market weakened again dur.
ing the early afternoon under re-
newed pressure from all street and
southern sources and liquidation by
recent buyers. The decline was ac-
companed by rumors that large
number of notices were being pre-
pared for issuance against March
contract tomorrow and prices broke
into new low ground for the move
ment, with March selling off to 1920
and May to 1856. The market was
a few points up from the lowest at
2 o'clock, but showed net losses of
35 to 40 points on old crop positions.
