No New Developments
on Farm Legislation

Washington, Oct. 11.-(AP)-The
brief statement that there have been
no special developments regarding
farm legislation was made today at
the White House.
This is the first time that even
the slightest discussion Of the con-
troversial farm relief problem had
been INDUCED in at the White House
since the close of the last congress
and just what significance could be
attached to the statement seemed
problematical.
Mr.. Coolidge last year vetoed the
McNary Haugen agricultural bill
and, while he looked forward with
some hope last spring to the efforts
of Chairman McNary Of the senate
agricultural committee to investi-
gate the farm relief situation, there
has been no indication that Mr.. Cool
itsge has changed his views or has
any plans for a compromise meas
ure to be presented to the next con-
greSS.

Falcon Island Is
Reappearing Above
Surface of Ocean

Suva. Fiji Islands, Oct. 11.-tR
"A wireless message relayed here
by the British consul in the Tonga
islands from H. NJ. S. Laburnam
today says that Falcon island has
reappeared above the surface of
the sea and that its vocano is erupt-
ing. The message says the volcano
pours forth lava at intervals Of
about one minute in every 20.
The vessel reported that observa-
tions show the island is about 1880
yards in length in q north-south d.
rection and about 1890 yards broad
in an east-west direction. The east
and west sides slope up gradually
to the edge of the crater which is
about 305 feet high.
The island is about As miles north
of Nukualoafa island, in the Tonga
group.
Falcon island was first thrown up,
50 far as known, on Oct. IA, 1885.
After some activity as a volcano it
disappeared beneath the sea. It ap-
peared again a few years later and
then again disappeared.

SUPPRESSION OF REVOLT
COST $50 REBEL LIVES

Mexico City, Oct. IL (AP) -
Suppression of the military revolt is
estimated to have cost $50 rebel
lives, including those executed.
This is on the assumption that so
were executed, SO killed in the bat
tie in which Generals Gomez and
Armada were defeated, and so in
various other skirmishcs throughout
the republic. In the absence of ac-
curate information the number of
executions may be larger than esti-
mated.
Only one death among the fed
cral forces was reported. Colonel
Luis Felipe Cruz was killed last
Tuesday while fighting rebels near
San Juan Tcotihucan, northeast of
Mexico City.
The government expended more
than 100000 pesos, (about 3d.
000,00O) in supressing the move
ment. This cost, however, will ulti-
matcly be borne by the revolution
lists themselves, as under Mexican
law the property of rebels reverts
to the government.
1t is thought that the government
will recover the entire cost of it's
measures to quell the rebellion, and
perhaps more.

STOCK PRICES
MOVE UPWARD
Few New Weak Spots Uncov.
cred, But General Course of
Prices Takes Uptrend

New York, Oct. 11.-fP)-Opera-
tors working for higher prices re-
gained control Of the price move
ment in today's stock market after
an early period Of irregr larity. A
few new weak spots were uncovered
by bear traders but eavy buying Of
United States Steel common and
General Motors finally turned the
general course of prices upward.
Call money was again in plentiful
supply at the renewal figure of 1
per cent.
The weekly steel trade reviews
continued to stress the absence of
the expected pick up in demand, the
Iron Ages composite price for
finished steel dropping to the low
est level in five years. United
States Steel common, however, rail-
lied from a low of 1435s to 145h
and there was brisk demand for
Colorado Fuel, Vanadium and
Crucible. Gulf States sank to new
low for the year and Bethlehem
continued to lose ground on the
growing belief that dividends would
not be resumed this year, as conf
IDENTIFY expected a few weeks ago.
Resumption of the advance of
General Motors coincided with the
return to this country of William
C. Durant, who has been actively
identified with "bull" operations in
that issue during the past few years.
The delay in the introduction of the
new Ford models also was a factor.
Some Of the low and medium priced
public utilities yielded readily to
selling pressure in the early trading,
but the group stiffened on the APP
pearance of strong buying orders in
radio corporation, VIZ tern Union
and Peoples Gas.
Houston Oil made up it's early
five-point decline and bullish opera
ton were resumed in Freeport,
Texas and A. NJ. Beyers.
Rails offered stubborn resistance
to selling pressure and by early aft
ernoon were creeping forward under
the leadership Of the high grade in
vestment shares.

0ILLAkDS ARE
RETURNED TO
GOVERNMENT
More Than $18,OOO,OOO Accrue
to L. S. as Result Of High
Court Decisions

Washington, Oct. 11.-(AP)-Oil
reserve lands in Wyoming and Cali
fornia, set aside by President Taft
more than two decades ago for the
use of the navy and disposed Of by
Albert B. Fall, in the early days Of
the Harding administration, finally
have been returned to the govern
ment.
In sharply worded opinion the
supreme court has ordered the Tea
pot Dome reserve in Wyoming,
which Fall leased to Harry F. Sim
clair's Mammoth Oil company, re-
stored to the government, finding rs
it did earlier in the year in the cam
collation. of Falls lease of the Elk
Hill reserve in California to Edward
L. Doheny that the transaction was
made "by means Of a collision and
conspiracy"
AS a result Of the two decisions,
more than $1S,000,000 accrue to the
government which in addition re-
gains title to the vast petroleum
fields-$13,0O0,0O0 having been col
lected from Dohcny's company and
$5,200,00O being involved in the Sim
clair deal for oil taken from the re-
serve, while they held the leases.
Four Suits Terminated
In bringing to close the long
fought civil case to regain the Tea
pot Dome field, the government has
terminated four of its six criminal
and civil cases arising out Of the
sensational senate investigation
which disclosed scandal that as
founded the country three years
ago. Next Monday Sinclair faces
trial with Fall on an Indictment
charging criminal conspiracy in the
negotiation of the lease cancelled by
the supreme court and there is ye.
to be tried the case against Fall,
Doheny and his son, Edward L., Jr.,
who are charged with conspiracy
based on the incident of "the little
black satchel," in which young Do
heny brought the former interior
secretary 100000 which the gov
eminent contends was bride money.
Sinclair Found Guilty
In addition to the two civil suits
by which Teapot Dome and the Elk
Hills reserve were returned to the
government, Fall and Doheny were
acquitted of having criminally con-
spired in the Elk Hills transaction
and Sinclair was found guilty of
contempt of the senate in failing to
answer certain questions before the
oil investigating committee. He was
sentenced to paw a fine of 81 900
and serve four months in the Dis
trict Of Columbia Jail. The case is
in the process of appeal.
In treating the case the decision,
which was unanimous except that
Justices Stone and Van Devanter did
not participate, was severe through
out in it's condemnation Of the form
er interior secretary, declaring that
the lease and agreement affected by
him and Sinclair "were made fraud
ulently by means of collision and
conspiracy between them" Refer
ring to the transaction by which
$4,000 in liberty bonds found they
way to Fall through the Continental
Trading company, an organization
Of which Sinclair was a member and
organized in Canada to purchase Oil
in this country, the court declared
that "the clandestine and unex-
planned acquisition Of these bonds by
Fall confirms the belief, generated
by other circumstances in the case,
tlsat he was faithless public Off

SALE OF FEED
BRINGS LOSS
Cancellation of Contracts With
Joseph Company Costs
Mill $lO,654

In addition to the loss Of $10,654
which resulted directly from can
collation. by the state mill and ele-
vator of feed contracts with the /.
S. Joseph company Of Minneapolis,
heavy indirect losses occurred which
are not reflected in tho financial
statements, according to o. B. Lund,
who audited the affairs of the insti-
tuition for the state board Of audi
tors.
Commenting on the mill feed
sales, Lund said: During the
months Of July and September, 1926,
sales contracts were entered into
by the state mill to deliver to l. S.
Joseph company of Minneapolis. ILL.,
500 tons Of mill feed at $2l per ton,
f. 0. b. Minneapolis" The contracts,
26 in number, are set up in detail
in the report.
Continuing his comment, Lund
said: This price was from two to
three dollars below the price quota
tons at the mill at the date of
these sales, which in itself might
not be far out of line in selling the
feed in these quantities on eastern
markets, providing ley had the feed
to deliver and there was no nearby
market for same
"Ihc local condition existing at
the dates of these feed sales was
that the state Of North Dakota was
going into the fall and winter Of
1926 and 1927 with one Of the short
est feed crops in history. Trans
portation companies were being pre-
vailed upon at that time to reduce
their freight rates on feed into
North Dakota to tide the livestock
in the state over the winter. Various
counties Of the state were consid-
erinc, and later did, bond and loan
funds for shipping seed and feed
into the drouth-stricken section Of
the state.
Unable to Make Delivery
Gin the face of this condition the
mill owned by the state contracted
to deliver its mill feed products for
the next six months to Eastern
markets at $21 per ton in such
large quantities that they were un-
able to make delivery on all the
sales made and were obliged to can
Gel part of these contracts at q
cost of 81 per ton. A ca.', pay
ment of $1O,654 wa. made to !. S.
Joseph company of Minneapolis for
the cancellation of 1922 tons Of
feed on this basis, which was a
direct cash loss to the state mill
that can be accurately Sc. up.
"The loss sustained on tie sales
filled, the loss Of local flour sales,
owing to the inability to furnish
feed with the flour, and the loss to
the patrons of the mill was con-
siderable and is not reflected in the
operating statements Of the mill.
Although it is difficult to set the
items up separately to show what
the amounts might be, it reflected
considerable indirect loss to the
well-being of the institution"
