DETECTIVE GETS SHAVE
 THEN ARRESTS BARBER
(Continued from First Page)

Waterbury short time ago, Pros ecuting Attorney Woods asked that substantial fine be imposed. Jg- norance of the law Is no excuse, he said. Residents of Windsor Locks, Stamford, South Norwall1 and other places about the place could come to New Britain and open stores or other business places in violation of the zoning ordinance and then plead ignorance of the law, If Gardanchs' defense is good, the prosecuting attorney said.
 Judge Mangan questioned the ap- plication of the zoning ordinance in this case. It makes ue mention of barber shops. he said, If strict interpretation of the ordinance is to be made, a person could be arrested for manicuring the toe nails of a Judge Hungerford said there is no doubt that a violation of the ordi- nance oxists, according to the evi- | dence, but he did not view it as serious Judge Mangan remarked | that inasmuch as it is the first case of it's kind in this city, the policy of l using it as warning to other possible offenders might be followed, | to which Judge Hungerford replied | that he is believer in strict ad- herence to the zoning ordinance,
 and he assumed that Gardanchs
 would discontinue his barber shop
 now that he knows it is in violation
 of the law. Judge Mangan replied that his client certainly will respect
 the law, whereupon Judge Hunger
 ford made a finding 'of guilty and suspended judgment.

STOCK EXCHANGE
 BEGINNING PROBE
Investigating Sensational Ad-
 vance of Wheeling

New York, Jan. 29 Rt-The New York stock exchange today began an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the recent sensational advance in the common stock of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad which Is believed to have cost bear spectators over $2.0e0,0oo.
 Members were asked for detailed information concerning Hong" and short" accounts at the close of busi- ness on each of the trading days be- tween January 22 and January 2s.
 Wall street was lnysti1ed as to the identity of purchasers of common stock. The identity of these pur- chasers has been carefully guarded by their brokers and the question of their identity has become the chief gossip in financial circles.
 One story" says the World, Ifs that John D. Rockefeller may have pulled the strings which sprang the bear trap" sport many finan- ciers relish even more than golf"
 The Ss-year-old former head of the Standard Oil company Is now in Florida, but the World contends that MT. Rockefeller keeps closer tele- graphic touch with the stock market than is generally supposed.
 Through ownership of virtually all the prior lien stock" the World says, Mir. Rockefeller has absolute control of Wheeling and Lake Erie, a 54O-mile road running between Cleveland and Zanesville, Ohio, and from Toledo south through eastern Ohio. There Is an unpaid dividend accumulation of II per cent on this stock. Until this Is paid of, Mir. Rockefeller designates the roads di- rectors, and the common and pre- ferred stocks have no voting rights"
 Foreseeing eventuat payment of accumulated dividends on his hoid- ings, says the World, MT. Rockefeller may have bought the common shares to perpetuate his control.
 Another theory is that the road would fit into te merger schemes of several larger systems.
 Some Wall street circles, the World asserts, have credited the L.. F. Loree interests with competitive buying of the common shares, be- lieving that the road would fit into his proposed fifth eastern trunk line. the New York Central, and the Nickel Plate. Persons on the 'in- side", however, the newspaper says. declare that control could only be obtained through a private deal with Mir. Rockefeller.
 All Of this, however, observes the 1 World, overlooks the explanation which may prove most simple and truthful-lnanipulation by 8 group of professional traders.
 l That either the Loree or the Van Swerlngen interests have been buy ing the stock on a rising market, is doubted by the Herald Tribune
 Bankers, the newspaper says, have stated definitely that neither the Van Sweringen's interests nor Mir. Loree have been recent buyers of the ! Etock.
 Wall Street Opening
 Mixed price movements charac- terized the opening Of today's stock market. Wheeling and Lake Erie l common opened points lower fol- lowing the announcement that the Stock Exchange had begun an in- vestigation of recent transactions. Losses of point each in By Prod uct Coke and Electric Storage Bat tery were offset by similar gains in THE MARKET AT 1t.30 NJ
