Will Adopt Him.
AstOunded though they were by this
confession, the Bergerons could not put
aside the affection the supposed iden-
tity of ST. Claire with their son had
engendered in them for him. They say
now that when he finishes his prison
term they will adopt him legally and
take him to their home in Menasha.
1t will be observed that ST. Claire
in his statement vouchsafed no infOr
nation regarding the mysterious let
ter that first brought the deluded pa
rents to New Orleans and Atlanta.
Little has been learned of his ante
cedents, except that he served as q
soldier in France. There have been
rumors Of other offenses against the
law in Western states and it is un-
derstood that authorities on the Pa
ctfic coast are anxious to lay hands
on him when he Is released from At
lanta.
His nemesis, Mrs. Emmerich, holds
to the belief that he met her brother
in the army and became an intimate
acquaintance. Last summer, she rea-
sons, st. Claire must have learned of
the Bergerons refusal to believe their
son dead, probably from one of the
circulars they sent out, and conceived
the notion Of palming himself off, for
a while at least, as Urban John Ber-
geron, in the hope Of pecuniary gain
from the transaction. She asserts she
has positive evidence that the man,
before his conviction, went to Menasha
to get Information he needed In his
plot.
BY discreet inquiries among friends
of the dead soldier she says, he gath
cred up the stock of intimate details
concerning Urban John Bergeron and
his family, which enabled him for
time to answer questions plausibly.
But he did not go to the other boy
hood home in Red Wing and in the end
this oversight trapped him.

GOOD SUPPORT:

ISSUES
Investment Bankers Report
Ready Absorption of All
New Issues
By MUNROE ROBERTS,
International News Service.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-The listed
bond market paid as little attention
to the advance in reserve bank
discount rates this week as The
stock market. Scattered selling Of
government bonds resulted in de-
clines of an eight or a quarter of
a point in some issues while the
Treasury Ans lost slightly more.
But high grade Industrial and rail-
road bonds which moves, strictly in
accordance with changing money
conditions remained firm, showing
that abundant funds are at The
disposal of the investment market,
regardless Of the hardening of COM
mercial funds.
AS in previous weeks, the invest
ment bankers received good sup
port on all new bond issues offered
this week. For the first time since
the turn Of the year no foreign
government or industrial bonds APP
pear in the weekly offerings, though
negotiations for several important
issues are in progress. Foreign
government bonds in the listed
market were generally steady, with
reduced volume of trading.
Convertible industrial bonds of

companies were comnaTatively

in prices Of the oil stocks. or at
least their inability to keep pace
with the upward movements in
prices in other sections OF the
market. Speculative railroad bonds
were mixed in their price move
ments. Profit taking in the Frisco.
Seaboard Air Line, New York

prominent railroad second grade
bonds resulted in slightly lower
prices. st. Paul bonds recovered

was in unusually large volume,
Prime railroad bonds were steady.

SENATOR MARITIME TO BE
BURIED IN JERSEY HOME

MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 28.-Although
definite arrangements had not been
completed early today, it was con.
sidered probable that the body of
former Senator James Edgar Mar
tine, Of New Jersey, who died of
apoplexy at private home here
Thursday night will be sent Sun
day to his home in Plainfield, N. j.,
for interment.
Senator MARITIME was stopping at
the home of Mrs. Mary Elizabeth
Cowan.
Soon after dinner Thursday night,
he retired and died a few minutes
later. His last request was that
his watch be given to his sister,
Miss Ella MARITIME. It was because
of this sister who is said to be ill
in New Jersey, that news of his
death was withheld from the public
for an entire day.
MARITIME became a member of tho
Senate March 3, 1911. having been
elected after his activity in placing
the name of Woodrow Wilson be-
fore the public SWhen Wilson first
was mentioned for the Presidency.
He served until March 8, 1917.
Senator MARITIME was born in New
York City, in 1850.

from burns which may prove fatal,
while the mother and three other
children, the oldest of which is
8, narrowly escaped with their lives,
in a disastrous fire which swept
the home Of Elwood Keller, on
Stiles avenue.
The fire was caused by a swing
containing the infant, catching fire
from a stove in the sitting room.
The child hung suspended between
the doors of the two rooms and in
swinging too close to the stove,
set the swing on fire.
The fire was discovered by men,
bers of a work train passing near
the home at the time. Under di-
rection of Howard S. Dudley, a
p. r. r. foreman, the men entered
the home and rescued the infant
from the blazing swing.

owner or rental agent that NAV
cause criticism. You are requested
to remind property owners and
other brokers of the injustices and
annoyances caused by rental control
legislation during the past few
years. This should induce all to
use the greatest care and caution
in their dealings in order to avoid
a renewal of tenant agitation that
may result in further legislation be-
ing considered by the next Con-
gress."
In it's formal statement the execu.
tive board further said:
Deny Housing Emergency.
During the recent hearings on
rent control legislation the Washing
ton Real Estate Board has consist
emily maintained that there Ia no
further need or justification for con-
ttnuance of rent control in the Dis.
trict Of Columbia. It feels that the
evidence of hundreds of vacant
apartments and houses, many of
which were available at moderate
rentals, was definite proof that there
Is no housing emergency in Wash
ington at this time. The formal evil
dence of voluntary reductions in
rentals submitted to the joint SUBJ
committee justified the claim that
economic laws of supply and demand
are again functioning to the end that
rentals in a very considerable degree
are actually receding.
with the removal of rental con-
troll legislation, the so-called hous-
ing situation in Washington will be
much more readily adjusted for the
reason that dealings between land
lords and tenants will again be
conducted on the basis of ordinary
business procedure, thereby open
ing up the way for competition to
adjust supply and demand. We
feel that the elimination of rent
control legislation is for the best
interests Of both landlords and
tenants and the city in general
Most Dealers Fair.
There is sufficient evidence to
justify the statement that during
the past few years the great ma
Jortty OF property owners and
rental agents have been fair in
their dealings with the tenants.
This has been clearly demonstrated
by the negligible number of own
ers who attempted to take advan-
tage of the situation during the
past few months while the activi-
ties of the Rent Commission have
been prevented by adverse court
decisions.
while there will always be some
unfair and unreasonable persons,
both of the landlord class as we'll
as in the tenant class, their nv
tual obligations will be more readily
recognized under normal business
dealings than has been the case un-
der the restricted conditions i'm
posed by rental legislation

board headquarters today If the
story, said to have come from the
White House, that President Cool

bers of the executive committee
seemed to feel that IL they are
given a chance to control the stu
alton themselves, there will be no
need for governmental aid of any
kind.

prominent singing organizations will

cast today by Charles F. Crane,

buyers today were coming in a
steady stream to get their seats.

develop.
A spokesman for President Co D.
idge said yesterday that he felt the
Federal Government had Il duty TO
protect it's workers, whom it hal
called here from all parts of the
country, from possible extortion
that may develop, and evictions
that are alleged to have been
threatened when the rent control
act expires in May.
There is considerable doubt in
President Coolidge's mind as to the
legal action he can take without
legislation by Congress. He has
not canvassed the question, but ex-
poets to obtain a detailed opinion
from the Department Of Justice in
the near future.
The mortgage pyramiding activi.
ties of local real estate interests
do not constitute a violation Of law,
it has been reported to President
Coolidge.
