The STOCK SLUMP

Fifty-Four Natives
Killed When Mounted
Police Create Panic

LONDON, Oct. 25.-Fifty-four per-
sons were killed and forty-three in
jured at Tanta, Egypt, where great
religious fair was being held, attended
by about 100000 persons, when
mounted police created panic in
their attempt to clear a passageway
for the automobile of the minister of
pious foundations.
The natives thinking that the
mounted police had come to break up
the religious demonstration as is
often the case, were thrown into a
panic. All ran for the bridge which
was nearby in order to escape what
they considered an attempt on the
part of the police to take their lives.
The weight of the thousands that
had rushed onto the bridge caused
the bridge to snap, throwing hun
dreds into the water, where many
were drowned. Some were trampled
to death.

and had to depend upon others of
doubtful regulations for maintenance.
3. The health Of the accused is en-
dangered by diseases which are
spreading thru Kishenev. In the pris-
on, the health of the prisoners will be

Scientist Perfects
Instrument to Weigh
Pulling Force of Moon

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.--Science now
has perfected a device that can
weigh the pull of the moon on minute
objects on the earth.
An instrument made by Ralph C.
Hartsough OF Columbia University de-
tects how much lighter an object
Weighing 1.2s,O00th of an ounce on
the ground becomes when II Is lifted
o foot.
This difference in weight is due to
the attraction the moon has for OBJ
jects on the earth, as demonstrated
In the tides.
The instrument will be used to
weighing molecules and test the Elm
