In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon)


NEW YORK, Jan. 28.-I suppose
many of you like myself have seen
elimination of this market in
flfty-seven varieties. Something
occurs that looks like a definite end
ing and all it means is a step back
ward to get a fresh start. Those Of
us who take bank statements as
worth the cost of publication and
therefore worth reading could not
escape the conclusion that in the
stock market things were being
overdone. And now and then we
have had word or two from higher
sources confirming that view. But,
oh, how I wish that those who
speak for finance were more in
genuous and would stop the practice
of making cryptic statements. Con-
ditions are either sound or they are
not sound. This morning the Jour-
nal of Commerce publishes the flat
statement that more reserve banks
are to advance the radiscount rate,
and In Europe the great national
sport continues, standing armies
and making implements of war,
even shipping them as furniture. To
me the stock market looks like a
very strained affair, notwithstand-
ing that it looks strong on the sur
face.

Witnesses Failure Reacts

~ tHtttW fboc
OTTAWA, Ill, Jan. 27.-Failure
of two witnesses to testify as the
State had expected at trial Of Harry
A. Hill for matricide reacted in IA
vor of the defense, which expected
to contend that the body found in
the basement of the Hill home was
not that OF Harry's mother.
DR.. George E. Mason, dentist
said he was unable to identify a
dental plate produced by the State
as the one he made for Mrs. Hill
three years before her death.
Prosecutor Russell o. Hanson in
sisted that DR.. Mason had positive
ly identlfled the p1ate both az the
coroner's inquest and before the
grand jury. The dentist said on
the witness stand, however, that
while he had done work for Mrs.
Hill, he could not recogAize his
work.
Letha BranZ, DR.. Mason's assist
ant, corroborated the testimony.
William Walter, a shoe dealer
identified the shoes found on the
body as the kind he had always
sold Mrs. Hill.
Earlier in the day, Judge Joe
David decided to allow William
Kent, Seattle, Wash, detective cap
tain, to repeat testimony concern
ing statements made by Hill when
he was arrested in Seattle. Judge
Davis ruled the detective could not
tell the jury Of Hills admission
that he forged checks on his
mothers account and feared she

Defense Springs Surprise in
Accepting All; State to
Combat Move.
HICKMAN GETS WEARY
Slayer Impatient to Get It
Over With; Resume
Trial Monday.
BY DAN CAMPBELL
United Press staff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES. Jan. 2s.-Im-
patient to get it over with" Edward
Hickman paced his cell today while
attorneys prepared for another bat
tie, expected when his trial resumes
Monday.
The fight was to center around the
States right to challenge a jury,
which the defense contends already
has been accepted by both sides.
The defense precipitated the bat
tie at the close of Fridays session by
unexpectedly accepting a full jury
after Judge Trabucco had allowed
the State the privilege to challenge.
The defense had expended its six
teenth peremptory challenge and
filed the vacant jury chair. Jerome
Walsh, Hickman's counsel, then
passed the juror and the Judge
rendered him to the prosecution.
Defense Springs Bomb
District Attorney Asa Keyes
passed and Richard Cantillon,
youthful defense attorney, threw
bombshell into the proceedings, by
waving his right to challenge last,
and accepted the entire jury.
Keyes rose hurriedly and an
nounced that he still reserved the
right to challenge and Cantillon
countered that he had had that
right few minutes before the de-
tense passed on the jury.
The district attorney contended
he still had power of challenge and
Judge Trabucco adjourned court
until Monday. when he will decide
If the present jury must remain in
the box.
1t generally was believed that the
defense had scored a point, because
the prosecution still has sixteen per-
emptory challenges, and it was
thought some of them might have
been saved for Jurors now in the
box.
Hickman Little Interested
Hickman Sprawled in his chair,
only occasionally showing interest
in the proceedings. He was called
on twice, during the yesterdays ses-
sion, to stand while prospective
jurors answered the question:
Have you ever known this defend
ant?"
Each time, when commanded by
the judge. he jumped to his feet,
and stood erect, while the jurors
looked at him. He looked one wom-
an juror squarely in the eye for sew
eral seconds while she scanned him.
He showed no emotion at men

Negro Patient Beaten From
StrangIe Hold by Boot

LIMA, Ohio, Jan. 29.-George
RemuS, former millionaire Cincin-
natl bootlegger, committed to the
State Hospital for Criminally In
sane here after his acquittal for the
murder of his wife, saved the life
of a hospital guard late Friday, it
became known today.
The guard, whose name was with
held, was attacked by a giant Negro
patient and was on the verge of
strangulation when Remus, drawn
by his gasping screams, leaped upon
the Negro and beat him with his
fists. The guard, wrenching free
from the Negroes huge hands, helped
Remus Subdue him.
Guards Praise
Other guards, hearing the strug-
gle also ran to the rescue and the
Negro was lodged in a padded cell.
Remus won the praise of asylum
attaches, who have been lenient
with him since his imprisonment.
RemuS was received at the hos
pital six weeks ago, after the Gin
cinnati Probate Court, while finding
him sane, held he is too dangerous
to be at large.
His behavior has been. exception
ally good and it was believed today
that he had woven another and
more sound link in the chain of
evidence he is building up in the
hope of obtaining his liberty.
Taft Fights Freedom
Habeas corpus proceedings, seek
ing the former rum kings release
on the ground he was never ad-
judged insane, were to have been
filed by RemuS' attorneys this week,
but action was postponed until
Monday.
Remus' future depends much up
on DR.. w. H. Vorbau, superintend-
ent of the asylum, who Is en-
powered by law to liberate an in
mate whenever he deems him cured.
Since his incarceration, Remus
never has exhibited signs of inSan-
ity, asylum attaches declare.
Charles P. Taft, III, prosecutor Of
Hamilton County, Cincinnati, where
Remus was tried for killing his wife,
Imogene, has announced he will
come to Lima and fight Remus' ef-
forts at freedom.
