CHICA IS
HELD NOT PASS
Fishermen Charged With
SEEMING In Pass
Are Freed
Is Or isn't Poca chica 4 pass?

The fate of five Point Ifsoel fish
ermen revolved upon this question
Friday in a trial before Justice Of
the Peace Fred Kowalski.
The men had been hailed into
court by John Coffee. game warden,
and charged with SEEMING In Boca
Cnica pass" The law on this
point is definite. setting forth that
except under special regulations no
seining shall be done within a mile
of a pass.
But Justice Kowalski. In thinking
of the pass" remembered that he
had walked across the stretch from
Brazos Santiago island to the main
land numerous times without get
ting his feet wet.
The Judge was Of the opinion that
whereas the spot had been a pass in
years gone by, it was no longer a
pass. Only in times OF higher water
does q large flow enter the pass
|Kowalskf stated.
He therefore held that the five
fishermen were not guilty Of viOlat-
ing the law. Bearing out his con-
tention. Kowalski produced several
maps that listed ~Brazos Santiago
Pass" but referred to Boca Chica
merely ~ "BoCa Chica."

WHEAT LOWEST
In MANY YEARS
Price Hovers Near Dollar
Per Bushel Mark: Corn
Prices Advance

CHICAGO, May lS.-tR-Wheat
lowered around 500 a bushel here
today for the first time in years,
but just escaped crashing into the
historic landmark of grain prices.
Huge supplies present and prospec-
tive with no adequate outlet In sight
operated as a constant drag, max
ing the wheat market heavy from
start to finish.
Closing quotations on wheat were
unsettled. l-8c to 1-2c net lower,
corn 7-8c to / Csc up. oats I'M
changed to lac net lower, corn
7-8c up. oats unchanged to 1-2c
advance. and provisions varying
from l0c decline to a rise of &c.
Bottom-most prices reached this
season were outdone today by all
Chicago deliveries Of wheat, with
May down to the lowest point since
1915 and only an even cent above
one dollar per bushel.
Particular notice was taken of an
nouncement that winter wheat
paintings alone in IL countries thus
far reported showed an aggregate
of 1876, 91O, 900 acres to be harvested
this year against l3l $50 900 acres
in 1923.
Corn advanced in the face of
wheat weakness. The principal rea-
son was that wet weather prevailed
over a large part OF the orn belt.
and that delays TO corn planting
were being intensified. Cash de-
mand was active.
Oats rallied as a result Of corn
strength.
All deliveries Of rye parralleled the
actionof wheat. and sold today at
a new low-price for the season.
Provisions about steady.

NEW YORK, May 18.@tP-Stock
prices were depressed by a steady
trickle Of nervous liquidation In a
quiet halliday session on the New
York exchange today. as the credit
outlook appeared still more cloudy.
With all II federal reserve banks
now on a 5 per cent rediscount ba-
sis, Wall Street Is inclined to the
belief that one OF the last obstacles
to putting the rate up to perhaps 6
per cent in eastern centers has
been removed. and 1t Is understood
that both the New York and Chi
cago directors are prepared to raise
their rates as soon as the reserve
board in Washington will permit.
Traders contemplate the next few
weeks with anxiety. as 1t IS esti-
mated that the exercising Of rights
to additional stock financing will
require about 8 $1,000. OO0, 900 before
early July, and much of this drain
on the money market will coincide
with the requirements Of the mid
year settlements.
The rather meagre business and
industrial news continued generally
favorable.

ering toward the close caused a
