STOCK MARKET
CLOSES FIRM
Mixed Price Movements Char
acterize Trading, But Under
tone Remains Strong

New York, Feb. 25-(P)- Mixed
price movements, reflecting the play
Of opposing speculative forces, again
characterized todays' stock market,
but the undertone was firm. The
presidential veto of the McNary-
Haugcn bill was favorably comment
cd upon by several brokerage houses,
but was without apparent effect on
stock speculation. Calling of about
$l0.000000 in loans, incidental to
motnh-e lend demand for funds, sent
the call money rate from 4 to Az per
cent and had II tendency to stimulate
profit taking in recent strong spots.
Oily displayed a fairly firm IN
dcrtone. Stcels were slow to re
spond to a reported stiffening of
pig iron prices. General Motors was
run up several poitns on the report
that Chevrolet production had cx-
ceeded that Of Ford for the first
time this month. Public utility and
electrical shares continued to move
up in response to the federal trade
commission report practically absolv-
ing the General Electric company of
suggestions of monopolizing the light
and power industry through inter
locking directorates.
The closing was firm. Selected
stocks continued to rise in the final
hour regardless of five per cent
money rates. Sales Appropriated
l 100000 shares.

Emigrants Will
Have to Pay Taxes
if Bill Is Passed

Persons moving out Of North Da-
kota in the future will have to settle
their taxes before they leave, at least
they will if they have enough per-
sonal property to warrant ordering
railroad car to ship it.
A bill already approved by the
house and now before the senate
provides for system of keeping
check on such matters SO that the
sheriff will be able to visit the
emigrant and collect the taxes before
he leaves the county.
The bill provides that when an
emigrant car is ordered, the station
agent Of the railroad receiving the
order must notify the sheriff of the
county. .Thereupon the sheriff is
expected to look up the records and
see if the prospective emigrant's
taxes are paid. If not the sheriff is
ordered to begin forthwith proceed,
ines to collect them.
In case the railroad company fails
to notify the sheriff it is made liable
for the unpaid taxes which the state

Corn Outlook

For the spring and early summer
for the country as a whole no more
than the usual seasonal advance in
corn prices may be expected accord
ing to a report of Paul c. Newman,
statistician of the United States
division Of crop and livestock esti-
mates. The small crop in 1926 was
accompanied by large increase in
farm carryover and reduction In
demand. The demand for the 1927
crop will very likely be no greater.
With the probable acreage increases
in the south, an average yield would
result in another year Of low corn
prices unless the acreage in the Corn
Belt is reduced from 10 to 20 per
cent. The average fran price has
been somewhat lower this season
than last due largely to increased
production in Texas and Oklahoma
and the poorer quality of the 1926
crop. Apparently the small decrease
in the farm supply Of corn has not
been sufficient to offset the lower
feeding demand caused by decreases
in number of hogs, cattle and horses
The commercial demand for corn
is not likely to change materially
from last year. There are slight
prospects of any increase in export
demand because Of good crops in
Europe last year and a good crop in
Argentina this year. Exports for
November and December 1926 totaled
about 100000 bushels compared
with 100000 for the same period in
1925.
The slow demand for corn for
feeding and the unusually large Wis
ible supply are also depressing fac
tors in the present price situation
However, decreased supplies of oats
and hay in the Corn Belt states have
materially increased the prices OF
these feed crops and should finally
tend to strengthen the demand for
corn.
The demand generally for corn
from the 1927 crop will probably be
little, II any, greater than for the
1926 crop. Continued reduction in
horses and cattle are likely to be
enough to offset the possible in.
crease for feeding hogs from larger
fall farrowings in 1927. There are
over next fall will be enough smallc,
than last fall to materially change
the supply situation.
Production of corn in an unprofit.
able large volume in 1926 was due
to acreage rather than yield, as the
average yield last year was slightly
below the ten-year average except ii
the southern states. Corn acreage
in the south has decreased nearly
100000 acres since 1920, while thu
average in the north central state.
has increased about 100000 acres
since 1920 and is now $500, OOt
greater than the average for, tn,
years 1909 to 1914.

Chinese General
Was Once Captain
in American Army

Budapest, Hungary, Feb. 25.-LP)--
Feng Yu Hsiang, the "Chinese Chris
tian general" is in reality Hungar-
ian adventurer who served for a per-
iod in the American army before 60
ing to China, says Judge Fengya of
Kassa, Czecho Slovakia. who declares
the general is his brother.
Judge Fengya asserted that Feng
held commission as an American
army captain, but finding American
life too tame, he wandered to China,
marrying the daughter Of native
price.
So convinced is Judge Fengya that
! the Chinese awarlords is his brother
that he is seeking diplomatic assist
ance in getting in touch with him.
believing him to be in great danger
The judge first saw Feng's picture
in German illustrated daily, and
being struck by the resemblance,
wrote to Berlin for the original
photograph. Examination of this
convinced him that the general was
his brother.
Bridgeport, Conn.,. Feb. 25.-tP)--
General Feng Yu-Hsiang, China's
christian general" was Major John
Fengya of the United States army
during the Philippine instruction
and is of Hungarian rather than of
Chinese descent, according to in
formation received by the Rev. Steph-
en- F. Chernitzky Of this city.
DR.. Fengya of Kassa, Czecho Slova-
kia, recognized a photograph of the
christian general" published in a
Kassa newspaper as that of his miss
ing brother, said Mr.. Chernitzky, who
gave details Of Feng's earlier life as
described by his brother.
Fengya, or Feng, was born in Kas-
sa, then in Hungary. and after grad
uation from the grammar and high
schools of his native city, attended
| the Hungarian naval academy. Upon
completion Of his course there, he
came to the United States and joined
the American army at the outbreak
Of Aguinaldo's Instruction.
Rcsigning at the close Of the fight
ing, he went to China and maruied
a Chinese girl.
Marshal Feng, founder of the Kuo-
minchun, or national armies, has
figured prominently in the warfare
