SLUMP IN FRENCH
BONDS IS FEATURE
Price Fluctuations Rather
Narr0W-RaiI Liens Re-
main Steady.
BY GEORGE II. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, April 3.-Except for
the weakness in French obligations.
the bond market was decidedly bet
ter today. All French bonds went
down and some of them made new
low records for the year. The SELL
Ing, however, was not in such large
volume as might have been antici-
pated. French SIS went below par.
French rs. the most recently offered
issue, broke over point, and the de-
partment of the Seine Is had a very
thin market. a loss of a full point
being scored on sale of a very few
bonds. OF the French railway issues
the Paris, Lyons and Mediterranean
6s were the weakest
Other Foreign Issues Firm.
Other foreign bonds were little af-
fected by the decline in the French
obligations. In the South American
group the feature was City of Monte
video Is, which were in demand to-
day at higher prices. At 81 the yield
is over 7& per cent.
Domestic Bonds Strong.
In domestic bonds, both investment
and speculative issues were firm to
strong. Liberty second AIS sold
above 1o1 and the fourth 4As above
1o2 for the first in long time. The
first AZ s and third 4As were both
higher. These advances were plain
response to easier money. In specula-
tive bonds the buying was renewed
in the Seaboard issues, the adjust
ment 5s, the consolidated IS and the
refunding As all going higher. At to-
days market the 6 per cent bonds
yield around z per cent and the re-
funding As almost 61z per cent.
b. & o. Division Gains.
One of the most striking incidents
was the sharp run-up in Baltimore
and Ohio Toledo Cincinnati division
As. These bonds had made a gain of
over a point Thursday. Today the ad-
vance was even more rapid, another
new high being reached.
Among the oils, Sinclair 6s went up
over a point. Virginia Carolina
Chemical Is were actively bought at
advancing prices. Pierce Arrow 8s
went up with the stock. Chile Copper
6s were the leaders of the copper
group.

BALTIMORE, April 3.-Trading on
the Baltimore Stock Exchange last
month was extra heavy. Stocks sold
aggregated 5S,77l shares, while bonds
sold amounted to $951,200
Several reasons are advanced for
the increased activity. One of these,
of course, is the fact that there has
been more trading in stocks through
out the country as a whole, and this
has been reflected on the local board
Also many additional stocks and
bonds have been listed on the local
exchange, and the ARRANGEMENT
whereby odd lots are dealt in has ma
terially increased the activity.

MOVES CONFUSING
IN STOCK MARKET
Copper Shares and Specially

...'-RY /. STUART p. WEST.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. April 3.-Durins the
greater part of the time today the STOCK
market Showed little tendency one way
or theS other. Prices were extremely
mixed. and interest centered in IN
dvidual moves.
The copper shares gave better ac-
count of themselves under the lead OF
Anaconda, while the steels were unable
to make any headway toward hlgher
prices. There were a number OF special
" faYorites, but the standard industrial
and. railway shares were irregular. IL
was professional market throughout.
Rise in American Sugar.
Predictions that American Sugar
would go on a So basis in May were
back of the rise in American Sugar
stock across 81. The tendency in the
raw sugar market appeared to be t1rmer.
and this showed in moderate harden
ing Of prices in the stocks of the Cuban
producers.
Supporting orders were apparent IN
the market for Anaconda following the
statement of the previous day by the
chairman of the board of directors that
the outlook for the copper trade was
hopeful and that the recent decline in
prices had been no more than part of
the readjustment which has been going
on generally toward a lower level. Amer

However, in view of the frequent disap

copper, it will be hard to get public
sentiment at all enthusiastic about this
group of stocks.
stock O6er Advanced.
1t was not long ago that minority
holders of New Orleans, Texas and
Mexico were being offered the privilege
of turning in their stock at STA a share
in exchange for an equal face value of
Missouri Pacific notes. Now this offer
has been advanced to s120, and the ad-
Vertisement is being made attractive on
the ground that holders of the stock are
getting only 81, whereas having con-
Nerted into the notes they would be get
ting $S.40.
Those who did not succumb to the
first offer are not so keen to yield
10 the second, for two reasons. In the
first place, these Missouri Pacific
notes are callable at any time on 60
days notice at par, and, therefore,
holders of the New Orleans stock
cannot have any firm ground for hope
of receiving moru than $120. In the
second place, New Orleans, Texas and
Mexico earning we'll over $50 a share,
could pay a lot more than the pres

Activity in Specialties.
Operations for the rise continued
IN numerous specialties. A capital
split-up was the one subject of gos-
SIP in connection with the high SELL
ing prices for Nash Motors
Mack Trucks seemed to meet with
good deal of profit taking as it
crossed 1873. Central Leather pre-
1erred was pushed ahead vigorously
on the strength of the recent i'm
provement in the leather trade.
Some special business appeared in the
Pierce Arrows and in International
Nickel. The action of Vivaudou fit
ted in with reports of a new pool at

Profit taking in Briggs Manufactur-

Lead Ore Up SIS,
Zinc Nearing $50

PLATTEVILLE The continued
high prace of lead ore is squirting men
on to prospecting. Over the hills and
valleys of the district which extends
into three counties men can be found
seeking out lead ore. The magic i'm
polling them is the continued high
price. Latest offerings made in the
field are $125 a ton, for 80 percent ore.
1t is reasonably certain the price will
go higher.
Zinc ore is in big demand, the price
is firm, $56 ton, for Joplin so percent
blende, 81 for each unit of zinc, means
$50 a ton for high grade Wisconsin
separator zinc. That the price will go
higher is proven by the following
statement.
According to the report for Septem-
Der, issued by the American Zinc in
stitute, released for publication Oct.
IL. there was in the United States II,
032 tons of slab zinc. Produced in
September, 1884 tons, affording sup
plies of 64,416 tons. Shipped to con-
sumers in September and for export,
$500 tons, leaving net surplus of
11,796 tons. This is less than one
weeks supply of metal, for one of the
basic industries of the nation, a mar
gin so narrow that it is hazardous and
one which the most conservative bust
ness management, in any line of bust
ness, would not condone. The United
States is at this hour face to face
with a famine in slab zinc. Prices
must go higher, and with the rising
price in metal will come ascendency
in the price of ore.

GREAT SQUIRREL MIGRATION
NOTED ALONG MISSISSIPPI

PRA. DU CHIEN-Have Wisconsin
squirrels heard about Iowa's great
corn crop?
Whether that is the lure or not, they
are going, thousands of them, across
the Mississippi from Wisconsin to
Iowa. All along the river, hunters and
fishermen daily report seeing colonies
of the little, bushy-tailed fellows
swimming the river, and invariably,
when seen, they are headed away
from Wisconsin and toward Iowa. The
migration has been going on for six
weeks. Lately, however, the squirrels
seem to be moving in greater numbers.
Long Swim Exhausting
One duck hunter Thursday saw a
group of them in mid-channel, ap-
parently near driwning from ex-
haustion He stopped his launch and
picked several out of the river Iowa
commercial fishermen who have their
homes on the river banks, see the
squirrels as they swim to shore, and
tell how tired many of them seem. Not
all of them are equal to the swim,
particularly on windy days when the
water is rough, for many dead ones
are washed up on the Iowa shore, and
can be seen lying on the ricks along
the river.
River folk believe the short nut
crop is causing the squirrels to mi
CRATE. But why are they risking
their lives to get to Iowa. where
there is the same scarcity of nuts

Jury Still Out on
British Rape Case

AS the Herald goes to press jury
of ten men and two women are still
debating on a verdict in the case of
the state VS.. Sam Petit, British Hol-
low soft drink seller. Petit is charged
with the statutory rape of Bernadette
Klar, a girl of IA. The penalty in
case of conviction is one to IS years
in prison.
Miss Klar on the witness stand
Monday swore that on Saturday, July
S, 1924, she was at the Petit home,
across the street from her mothers
house. She said she and the Petit
girls were engaged in washing bottles.
That Petit took her into his garage
and there violated her. That on April
6. 1925. she became mother. Mrs.
Anna Klar, mother of the girl, test1-
fed that she did not know of her
child's condition until shortly before
the baby was born. Bernadette is the
fourth of seven children in the faith
erless Klar family.
Petit, on oath, denied all charges,
claiming Mrs. Klar had tried to
shake him down" for $500 at the time
the child arrived.
Intimate details and testimony as
given on the stand are omitted mere.
1t was signaIly notable that testimony
which embarrassed men spectators at
the trial were drunk in with avidity
by women present who remained dur
ing the taking of testimony. And one
would assume that adolescents at
least would be barred from trial of
this kind.

NEW METHOD
ASCHECK TO
MOON SELLING
Judge Imposes Fine and Re.
quires $1,000 BOnd.-TO
Jail Old Offenders.

In handling liquor cases Judge
Smalley is trying out new method
of punishment in cases affecting first
offenders. A stiff fine, ranging around
$500, is imposed In case of failure to
pay the fine the offender must go to
the work house for around four
months. If he pays the fine he is put
under $1,000 bond for a year to keep
the peace and render good behavior.
In case of failure to render bond he
is confined in the work house until
bond is secured but no longer than
six months. The bond is surety
against offenses of any kind and in
case of offense the bond is not only
forfeited but the offender must stand
trial for his second offense.
Getting Good Results
The result has been number of
fines paid in, the defendants pleading
guilty and arranging bond. They seem
to prefer a stiff fine to serving time
in the work house and under the new
system there is no getting off under
the Huber law, as happened repeat
eddy a year ago. A work house SEN
tence complies with the stipulation OF
the law which requires the sheriff tC
find work for the prisoner if he can
do so. Since the work house sentences
began there have been no releases
under the Huber parole law.
Second Offenders Not Included
The method stated in the foregoing
does not apply to old offenders. Il

FARMER FINDS
BURNED AUTO
Has Minnesota License
Identity Unknown.

A farmer coming to town early
Tuesday morning saw the burned re-
mains of what had been a perfectly
good 1924 Ford touring car beside the
road west of the Edw. Holzinger farm
ON the Platteville road, in what is
known as "Moore's Hollow" The ma
chine bore Minnesota license number
170-172. 1t was hauled to town and is
now in the alley back of Wright's
garage. n sstN
Leo Fritz, farmer, found a man and
woman at the side of the burning ma
chine some time earlier Tuesday. 1t
seems that the man had run out of
gasoline and had helped himself to
five gallons from the Holzinger tank.
He left lighted lantern stading on
the gas tank. The gasoline ignited and
the car, or such parts as were in
f1ammable, went up in smoke.
Mr. Fritz hauled the man and wom-
an to town, putting them off at Ry-
land park.
Under Sheriff Bayley has written
Minnesota authorities for the owners
identity but to date has had no reply.
There is no proof that the car was
stolen but it looks suspicious.
