pass, we've got good prohibition
law if they enforce it,"
Turning the conversation to his
fellow prisoners at the state farm
again, Shumaker said:
"These prisoners think L should
know all and be able to help them.
Many of them have made a con-
fidant of me- They tell me of their
divorces. They tell me if they're
sick. They ask my advice in money
matters. They confide in me about
the wife and the children at home.
They ask me questions of law. In
fact, they ask me many questions
it would be impossible for me to an
swer.
Told Of Frameup
zone man from Tell City even
has gone so far as to tell me he
was framed when he was sent to
the farm for bootlegging. He told
me the name of the man whom he
said told on him, and told me what
he is going to do when he gets out.
"And he also said he was going to
bootleg more than ever. pointed
out how foolish this would be and
| for a number of days he seemed
to enjoy arguing the question with
me.
I'VE have lots of fun here The
other day a little Negro fellow they
call Half Pint was released and as
the time came for him to leave all
the prisoners kicked him on the
shin and he retaliated in like man
ner.
by the way, the only member OF,
our league who has been to see me
was Mr.. Miles (E A. Miles, dry
league attorney. 1 understand he
has filed a petition for a new trial
for me. But it won't do me MUGS
good, because my time will be up
before the court acts on his petition.
But I'm interested in that I believe
it will clear my name.
Not Up on Slang
"You see I have only thirty-five
days or rather thirty-four and part
of one to serve"
Armand corrected:
"The doctor is not properly versed
in penal farm slang. He has thirty
four days and kick to serve"
Shumaker then commented that
his wife and son Paul had visited
him at the farm. His voice softened
as he mentioned them.

Terrific Momentum Is
Given Inaugural
Market.
TICKERS ARE CLoGGED
Gains Range to 20 Points,
Scored in Adams Ex-
press Company.
BY ELMER G. WALLER,
United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, March 1.-The stock
market-the Hoover Inauguration
market" doomed at a record pace
today.
Sales to noon in this fresh bull
outburst totaled nearly 100000
shares, a peak higher than that of
most Of the full days for the last
fortnight.
The 2,998,800 shares traded COM
pared with 2,084.300 in the CORES
ponding period yesterday.
In the first hour prices turned
sharply upward as bull operators
in a frenzy of new activity, watched
the Hoover market" joyfully. Prices
showed gains of to 20 points.
Sales we're at the rate of 10000, 900
shares for the day.
In the second hour, there was
some shading downward, but to-
ward noon a better feeling regard
ing credit was noted and long list
of issues, turned upward again.
Adams Express Gains Big
Adams Express with twenty
point profit was spectacular issue.
First National Bank--not a stock
in which little fellows deal--Soared
$500 per share to a new record high
of $7,100. At this figure, it was
estimated, George F. Baker, vener-
able f1nancier and organizer of the
bank had increased his wealth in
three days by $31,000,000.
Stocks scared in the first hour
at such tremendous pace that the
tickers were tagging more than a
half hour.
Transactions coming out on the
tape were often l to 5 points lower
than those on the floor.
This situation together with in
dications that money would be firm
er than the per cent renewal
rate caused some profit taking,
and decline from their highs by
principal stocks.
However toward noon the better
feelir, regarding credit was given a
new upward impetus.
Coppers Are Sensational
Sensational buying in the copper
shares, and special issues on the
stock market was eclipsed in mag
nitude of advance by the bank
stocks traded in the over the coun-
ter market.
When the old leaders hesitated
for a moment new generals were
brought to the front. United States
Steel rose to 1921 and then fell
hack to 1907, off point net. While
it was around that level new buying
came into Radio Corporation, send
ing the issue up 13 points to $411.50
a share, new 1929 high and COM
ing within SO of its record high.
In the afternoon reports came
from the copper industry that the
price of 1917 cents for domestic cop
per was only held in a few sections.
Some producers changed their tac-
tics and held to 1914 cents.
The foreign price is 1919 cents a
pound.
Nearly the entire group of cop
pers rose to new record territory
and most of the one to seven-point
gains were sustained.
Turnover Is Immense
Nine stocks on the opening ac-
counted for a turnover of $4,000
shares, the total amount paid for
these issues being $5,640,7 ,760. The
total for the whole market in the
first half hour amounted to. 1,169, 800

 Start Immediate Development.
 MT. Metzgar announced that the Alaska Juneau would put on a crew without delay and begin ex- ploratory work which will be push ed as rapidly as possible. Owing to the lateness of the season it is not expected it will be practical to erect a permanent camp there, but temporary shelters will be erected for both crew and to house ma chinery and supplies. The other camp on the Manville group will be used as the base for the rest of the year.
 While no such showing of surface prospects are found on the Spar ling ground as existed on the Man. vile group, it is thought the form CT is on the same strike. Seams of other deposits have also been found by Sparling that may de- velop into something worth while.
 Making Good Progress
 Good headway is being made on the Manville property MT. Metz gar said. The permanent camp is now completed. By the first of September the 58O feet of dia- mond drilling had been done. The tunnel was well under way. Arthur Riendeau, forman of the local mine, is now at the camp starting to drive a shaft which will be tapped by the tunnel about 500 feet in the hill.
