Washington, Oct. 31.-Here in
the effete east, where almost any
one from west of Chicago is re-
garded as a radical. many persons
regard Senator Burton X. Wheeler
of Montana as a radical who will
bear watching.
Especially here in the SNUG ma
tiOnal capital it is felt that if
Wheeler isn't a radical, there isn't
one in the senate.
But out in Montana. one learns
with astOnishment. Wheeler is be-
ing panned as a reactiOnary. Some
Of the voters out there are much
more radical than Wheeler and il
there were enough Of them, as there
aren't, Wheeler might be defeated
in his campaign for reelection next
year.
Anti-Wheeler Sentiment
The anti-Wheeler feeling centers
in Sheridan County, in the extreme
northeast section Of Montana, aIOng
the Canadian border and North Da-
kOta.
Experts say that you can't find a
more radical section in the country
than Sheridan county. The folks
out there boast of it, too. And it's
peculiar in more ways than that.
By electing farmer labor county
tickets each year. these radicals
control the county. From all reports
they do a good Job Of running it.
They drove a small town crooked
regime out of office when they
stepped in.
Sheridan is altogether a farm
county and is run in the interests
of the farmer. The state law pre-
vents any change in the form o.
county government. but the Sheri
danites don't mind that, They hav,
just the kind of a government the!
want.

SHADING IS NOTED
IN BOND MARKET
Snap Gone in High-Grade
New Rail IssueS-Stocks'
Weakness Is Felt.
BY CHARLES F. SPEARE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August 29.-There
was quite shading of bond
prices today in market of fair
size. Some of this was due to the
shifting from one issue to another
where there appeared to be an advan-
tage in income and in appreciation
prospects.
Temporarily the snap has gone out
of the market for those high-grane
new railroad bonds that featured
the trading of week or two ago. "A
number of the Az per cent when
sold at a premium of about point
were back to par today. Union Pacihc
AIS we're a half point under their re-
cent price. The old legals were IT.
regular. but all limited in their fiuc-
tuations to small fractions.
Second Liberties Down.
The most significant change in the
United States Government list was
the decline in the Second Liberty
AVS. which mature November 10, to
the lowest price of the year, or about
point under the best of the year.
The long-term Treasures were flrm.
Considerable interest was taken In
the issue of about S31 100000 Boston
and Maine first mortgage 5s, at 95
Some of the weakness in other BONDS,
notably the Erie new 5s, which were
back to about their issue price, was
due to the purchase of these ponds
with the proceeds Of the others. The
BOSTON and Maine IS became active
selling I'D to about "a. They are not
callable except at $1071s for the next

their favor.
In the industrial list the effect OF a
weak market for stocks was shown
in lower prices for the BarnsdaH 6s,
Dodge IS. International Paper IS.
United States Rubber 5s, Goodyear 5s
and a suspension of demand for others
that have lately been under &C
emulation.
Positions Are Maintained.
A dozen or more foreign issues
which touched new high record prices
last week were able today to maintain
their position in spite of quiet market
conditions. There was nothing very
distinctive in the days movements.
which were confined to the French,
Belgian and italian groups where the
greatest strength was exhibited, al
though Peruvian, Polish and some or
the Germans were steady.
The effect of so many poor July
railroad statements on the market for
reimbursement railroad bonds has
been to create dullness rather than
reaction. 1t is quite remarkable that
the junior bonds of some of the
Southern lines which had shown
sensational losses in the next earnings
for the seven months of the year
stood up.

ALDEH4L TO BE ADDED
 TO DENATURED ALCOHOL
This Liquid, With 'Terrible" Taste, To Be Tested Out Effective
 April 1.

Pittsburgh, Feb. II UP) - The work of the bootlegger in making denatured alcohol drinkable is get ting harder and harder.
 The treasury department has is sued an order effective April 1 that the formula for denaturing alcohol be changed to include -four parts (by volume) of approved methanol twood alcohoD and 75 parts of the compound known as aldehol."
 Wood alcohol at present is used in quantities of two parts, but aldehol is absent. The introduction of alde- hol is the basis of the governments hopes for success of the formula.
 Aldehol is terrible" in both taste and smell, Dr. Joseph H. James. head of the department Of chemical engineering at Carnegie Institute of Technology. and inventor of the compound, said today. Even though a person drinking liquor containing aldehol may be sufficiently "hard boiled' to be immune to its odor. it is likely to make him disagreeably i'll as soon as it passes the throat.
 After several years work, James and his assistants produced aldehoI through the oxidation of kerosene. The chief virtue of aldehol. accord ing to James. is that it has so far resisted any effort to take it out Of the ethyl alcohol, of which it be- comes a part. Until the boot!eEger can devise some means to accomplish that, it is believed denatured alcohol produced after April 1 will be of little value except 10 the legitimate user of it. for purposes other than drinking.

 FOR CRUSHED FINGER
Man Who Was Given Lift in Auto Sues
 Host

The value of crushed anu lacerated finger is set at s2,5O0 in an action for that amount brought by Harry Albert, local candy whole saler, against Louis Raschkow through Attorney Louis II. Katz of Hartford.
 The writ sets forth that on De cember 6, 1926 Albert was waitin , for a trolley car on West Main street at about II o'clock in tn } morning. The defendant came along in his auto and asked the plaintiff to ride, in other words, asked him if he wanted a lift" The plaintiff agreed and entered the car.
 But the plaintiff claims that be- fore he was seated the defendant 'negligently and carelessly and without looking to see whether or rot the plaintiff was already seat ed," slammed shut the rear door on the index finger of Alpert's right hand, crushing and seriously injuring the member.
 The plaintiff stated that he was free from contributory negligence and that the finger was crushed and lacerated, causing him intense pain of mind and body" He sets forth that he has been sick and disabled and that he still continues to be sick, sore and disabled"
 The writ Is returnable in the superior court, Hartford, the first Tuesday of March. Constable Fred Wrinkle served the papers.
