Will Say InlS, Sdlu Ollue, Ille
information I have is of the kind
that you dare not print at this
time.''
The confidential report of Chief
of Police Percy Bowden on the Nc
Pherson case was mailed from here
Saturday afternoon about p. M, he
said today 1t was sent special de-
livery and was registered, to be de-
livered to the addressee (Chief of
Detectives Cline, of the Los AM
geles police department) only.
Beyond saying that the report COW
cred "both Sides of55the case. Chief
Bowden refused to divulge the con-
tents of the letter. BY both sides,t'
it is assumed he means an account
of Mrs. McPherson's own story Of
her abduction and escape on the
one hand and an account of the in
vestigation into the authenticity of
the evangelist's story by the Doug-
las police on the other.
Los Angeles newspaper men, who
have been here since the day follow
ing the evangehst's reappearance in
Aqua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico juno "a,
continue to conduct their own in
vestigations into Mrs. McPherson's
story. Thye are bent on probing
every angle of the strange case, in,
cluding the statement of Mayot
Boubion of Aqua Prieta that Mrs
Mcpherson was taken out of Doug.
las June % into Mexico and brought:
back by automobile to within two
miles of Aqua Prieta.
Mrs. MCPHERSON contends that she
walked approximately 20 miles from
the shack where she was held cap
tive southeast of Aqua Prieta, into
the little Mexican border town, and
that she escaped from her abduc.
tors, "Steve" and "Rose," June %.
Other angles the newspaper men
are investigating center around the
fact that Mrs. Mcpherson did not
appear sunburned upon her arrival 1T
Aqua Prieta, that her shoes and
clothing did not appear much travel
worn after her trek over the desert,
and that, though she appeared to be
hysterical, she apparently was not
completely exhausted.
This latter contention is borne out
by the fact that she talked with
newspaper men throughout the day
of her appearance and up until $3.50
or 10 o'clock that night.
Newspaper men also have worked
on the case in the vicinity of Yuma,
Ariz, in an endeavor to identify the
motor car in which the evangelist
claims she was taken from the Ocean
Park beach to a point which she be-
lieves was near Mexicali, Mexico.
They also seek to ascertain how the
woman's abductors crossed the Colo
rado river at Yuma with her bound
and gagged on the floor of the car
without arousing the suspicious of
state plant quarantine officers.

GRAIN MARKET

CHlCA(iO, Jan. S.-Immediate all
around enhancement of grain values
today followed notice that one of the
largest corporations in the United
States would accept corn at the rate
of 81 bushel on purchase of farm
machinery.
Much better domestic demand for
red winter wheat, cash delivery did
good deal also to bring about
higher grain prices. Wheat closed
strong, 13s to 2h cents higher, new
style May 1888 to 178A, and July
153h to 1885.
Corn finished 15s to 2% up and
visions, the outcome was unchanged
TO cents lower. Lively speculative
buying in the corn market and the
consequent upward trend of prices
for corn eclipsed at times the inter-
est regarding other grain. The fact
that the offer to barter merchandise
at once on the basis of dollar a BUSH
ell corn was accompanied by predic.
tions that the corn market hero
would advance to 81 within the next
ninety days gave decided impetus to
corn buying as soon as today's trad
ing began. The price bulges which
ensued brought about increased SELL
ing pressure, but country offerings
of corn to arrive were small, and the
market closed with most of the ad-
vance maintained, and with July and
September delivery of corn quoted
we'll above 80 cents.
Wheat prices were helped upward
not onlf by the strength of the corn
market and more urgent domestic
milling demand for wheat, but also
by talk of probable reduced unofficial
estimates of the Canadian wheat
crop. Besides, reports were current
that 40 per cent of the wheat yield
in northern Argentina is unfit for
milling No. red winter wheat in
Chicago available for use at once,
commanded a premium today of ii
cents busneI as compared with the
price of, May delivery. Scantiness OF
rural offerings of oats paralleled the
dearth of similar offerings of corn.
Profit taking sales offset in the
provision market the effect of higher
prices both on hogs and on grain.

DUN'S REPORT

NEW YORK, IAN. S.-Dun's tomor-
row will say:
Whether the new year is to sur
pass or keep pace with the old is
an important question which time
alone can determine. With advent
the favorable trade development or
the past three months gives every
indication of continuing. The Gus
tomary slowing down for purposes of
inventory has been less marked than
usual. Prices as whole have been
steady. The volume of work in sight
in large industrial establishments and
enterprises together with the great
amount of construction already un-
der. way, insures extensive employ
ment in all manner Of handicrafts.
The agricultural districts are in
position to buy more largely than
was possible at this time last year,
and savings bank deposits are larger,
bespeaking a great purchasing pow
er on the part of the public in gem
eral. What is probably more en-
couraging in the current situation is
the fact that there is disposition to
make purchases with the needs of
the future in mind.

Easy Money Condition
Seen in N. Y. Despite
RediscOunt Rate Jump

NEW YORK, Jan. S.-Despite the
advance in the local federal re-
serve rediscount rate to 4 per cent
q committee of the New York clear
ing house today voted to make no
change in the maximum rates to be
paid on deposits with clearing house
institutions. Wall Street interpreted
this as a sign of easy money con-
ditions, since the banks apparently
did not feel the need of increas-
ing the deposit rates in order to
attract funds.
Although the increase in the bank
rate at this time came as sur
prise to the financial district which
had expected no change before the
end of the month, it had little effect
upon the security markets. Indus
trial and railroad stock averages
declined fractionally in contrast to
break of more than five points
in the industrials and almost two
points in railroads on November 10,
the day following the rise in the
Boston bank rate.
Bond prices moved slightly lower
with the liquidation of a few specu-
lative accounts but selling did not
reach serious proportions.

Justice Department Has

Aluminium Concern Record
(nu nisnntch A. r. Wirel

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-Attorney
General Sargent indicated today to
a senate investigating committee that
the department of justice had not
undertaken to compel the federal
trade commission to furnish informa
tion obtained from the Aluminium
company of America which the COM
mission decided to hold as confiden-
tial.
Sargent was called as the first wit
ness in the senate inquiry as to any
failure of the justice department to
bring contempt proceedings against
this company, and which was charged
in 1924 by the trade commission with
violations of federal court consent
decree entered in 1912.
'Is there any way the department
of justice can procure from the fed
eral trade commission information
received from the company" asked
Senator Borah, republican, Idaho.
'I don't know" returned Sargent.
II don't think that his ever been
tested out"
Senator Walsh, democrat, Montana,
chief prosecutor in the inquiry read
into the record minutes of the feder-
al trade commission which he con-
tended showed that the commission,
on a to vote, had decided to with
hold from the justice department not
only evidence obtained from the alum
mum company in confidence but also
all information from that company.
