The tone of the list was distinct

United States Steel rose points
to 214 on $500 shares; International

Reynolds Tobacco B opened 5000
shares at SO following the announce
ment of an increase in the price
of its product, Camel cigarets. This

topic, it was made clear by spokes-
men for both participants. Various
matters which will contribute to i'm
proved relations between Great Bri-
tain and the United States, as well
as to closer accord among other ma
tons of the world, will be discussed
frankly.
The coming disarmament confer
ence will occupy attention, though
no technical matters will come up.
In the strongest terms, Hoover will
assure Macdonald the American at
titude is one of extreme simplicity.
This country, Hoover will tell the
premier, is ready to reduce its fleet
to any size Great Britain decides she
can accept.
The personal nature of the CONVEX
SationS Is counted ~ to lead to a
frank and undiplomatic exchange of
views on matters that otherwise
might be barred. There will be no
diplomats or statesmen at the camp
when Hoover and Macdonald talk.
Only Macdonald and his daughter,
Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover. and a few
others will be In the camp.
1t is conceivable the American
President may ask his guests
thoughts on recognition of Russia.
Macdonald recognized the Soviet
during his first premiership, and
there are indications he may do so
again. There are rurnors Hoover
has been studying this problem in
tenSively. Hoover also may inquire
about MacDonald's reaction to the
proposal of United States of Eu-
rope, as suggested by Premier
BRAND of France.
Despite reports to the contrary,
there will be no discussion of the
pending tariff bill. There will be no
talk of reparationS or debts.
There will, it can be stated author
itatively, be no mention of alliances
or agreements" even in the form of
pacts for preserving world peace. 1t
was pointed out, in connection with
MacDonald's visit, that the United
States enters alliance with nobody.
Negotiation of the preliminary
Hoover Macdonald naval accord has
aroused some fears on this subject
among other parley powers.
Americas entry into the League
OF Nations or even the world court
will not be brought up.

WOUNDED YOUTH
BLAMES BANDIT
John Ebert Is Near Death
With Bullet in Lung.

Critically wounded, John Ebert, 10,
of $50 Roena avenue, today was un-
able or refused to name the man
who shot him through the lung Fri
day night.
To police he contends his aSsailant
was a bandit, who whirled on him
with a gun, on Taft street near his
home, and commanded
Stick EN- upl"
Before he could raise his hands,
Ebert said, the man fired twice. The
youth ran to Harvest and Taft
streets, where he fell unconscious.
Guy West, 81, of 1927 South Denison
street, neighbor, saw the wounded
boy, and took him home, from where
he was removed to city hospital.
Physicians said today there was
title chance for his recovery.
Ebert gave no description Of the
gunman. West, questioned by po-
lice, Is said to have accounted for
his movements after having pre-
viously taken the boy from his home
to Washington and Taft streets,
near where the shooting occurred.
Ebert also exonerated West.
Despite belief of police that Ebert
could name, or otherwise identify
his assailant, when faced today
with the knowledge that he prob
ably will die, the youth said only:
"I want to get the man that shot
me-"

YOU mean to say you were slow

asked John S. Robinson, counsel
for Mrs. Kennedy.
The minister was stumped for an
answer.
Many times during the session he
appeared not to hear questions and
at others ne remarked: Il don't re-
member. 1t is difficult for me to
reconstruct those things now"
Once he turned to Judge Ronald
and said: I'm tired. I'm so tired
I can hardly remember things"
When he stepped off the witness
stand he had withstood days Of
questioning and the ordeal had left
him pale and shaky.
Judge Ronald announced he would
give his decision on the non-suit mo-
ton when court resumed Monday
morning. He cautioned counsel for
the plaintiff that admission of
blackmail prior to the asserted
breach of promise would result in
dismissal Of the case.

! Using soft answers to turn away
wrathy defense questions, the Uni
versity of California coed who
wanted to become a great actress
spent six hours on the witness stand
Friday telling and letelling the story
which may convict PantageS of as
Sault on minor.
ExtOrtiOn Hinted
For three of those hours she was
animation by Jerry Giesler, who
sought by innuendo, implication and
almost direct charges to indicate
she was pawn in an attempt to
extort from the theater magnate
some of his reputed $50,000,000.
But despite this grilling her story
was not changed in any substantial
fact. She broke down frequently,
almost became hysterical at times,
but she clung to her declaration
that Alexander PantageS forcibly
assaulted her in his private office on
Aug. 9.
Even when in tears she was polite
always.
mo, sir" and Eyes, sir" she an
swered, or why, 1 could not do
that, sir" She never forgot the
Sir"
She appeared about to break
down when she recited the events
she said took place in Pantages
conference room.
She told in every detail the man
ner in which she claims she was
assaulted. She sobbed throughout
the recital-and SO did two mem
bers of the jury.
She claimed that PantageS prom
ised her stage work and then used
violence to attack her after he lured
her to his Office.
The narration was unprintable at
many points.
May Draw Comparison
She seemed about to break again
when the defense insisted that she
put on the red dress in which she
went to PantageS' Office in search
of work that afternoon. The defense
made no revelation concerning its
move, but it was presumed it later
would draw a contrast between the
flaming red of that gown and the
somber clothing she has worn in
court.
One of the highlights of the after
noon was the meeting between
Pantages, one-time gold miner and
bartender in the Klondike, and Kate
Rockwell, former queen of one of
Dawson City's dance halls.
After long friendship, the pair
parted bitterly years ago.
PantageS, walking out Of the
courtroom at a recess, went over to
Kate Rockwell
Hello, Kate" he said.
How are you, Alex" she an
swered.
He talked to her in an undertone
as she wiped away the tears.
ALEX speaking to me that way
Just bowled me over" she told news
papermen later.
Kate Rockwell was summoned
here as a witness against Pantages.

CITY MANAGER WILL

Ogden Rules Government Is Legal
Pending Next Election.

City manager government will re-
main intact in Michigan City until
councilmen to be elected Nov. S,
assume office Jan. /.
This was the substance of
ruling made public late Friday by
Attorney General James M. Ogden.
The ruling had been asked by Gov
ernor Harry G. Leslie, upon request
of Michigan City authorities.
Ogden conferred with A. r.
Couden, city manager; Louis H.
Kruger, city attorney; and Walter
c. Williams, former city attorney of
Michigan City, before announcing
his decision.
Michigan City had the only city
manager government in the state
and it was overthrow when the
supreme court declared the city
manager law unconstitutional 1t
has been functioning there since
1921.
Ogden held the government Is
"de facto," since the city was
turned over to it by officials holding
office under the old form and
should continue to function until
new officers are chosen.

SOUTH BEND. Oct. 5.-With the
names of only 100 persons revealed
OF the 300 named in 18l indictments
returned by the United States grand
jury Friday afternoon, Calumet DO
lttical circles show concern today as
reports gain credence that the
names Of high political figures of
northern Indiana would be revealed
ic fifty-three secret true bills accus-
ing sixty persons.
Surfeited by a long series OF re-
ports and rumors of spectacular de-
velopments ever since the start of
the grand jury investigation five
weeks ago, Lake County found
grounds for support of belief that
sensational developments will follow
in the tactics of federal prosecuting
officers.
District Attorney Oliver M. Loomis
announced only the identities of
those indicted who already have
been placed under arrest. These in
cluded East Chicagos mayor. chief
of police and detective chief. and
numerous policemen. drug peddlers,
boctleggers and vice resort operators
of the northern half of the state. A
lieutenant of the Al Capone liquor
machine also was indicted.
Most of Force Involved
Mayor Raleigh P. Hale, arrested
in the East Chicago raids two
months ago must face trial on
charges of conspiracy to import
Canadian liquor into Lake county
with him on the indictment charg-
ing thirteen overt acts are four
members of his police department
Chief James Regain, Detective
Chief Martin zarkovich and De-
tective Sergeant Pat Ramey.
Lester Ottenheimer an East Chi
Cago attorney was indicted for OBJ
structing Justice. He is charged
with having attempted to take some
papers from department OF justice
agents.

the bill will be started Monday.

John S. Pratt, special United States
attorney general, announced that
the election fraud angle of the case
would be put over until the new
grand jury is called about Dec. l.

ment now has, and all new leads
which may be uncovered, will be

claTed.
Thus the election frauds investi-
CATION is deferred until more than a
year after the conspiracy is alleged
to have taken place.
First charges of election law vio-
lation we're heard by the regular
grand Jury session here in June. The
Jurors found insufficient evidence
for indictments, but recommended
a continuance of the investigation.
The jury again was summoned IN
September, but was overwhelmed
soon in a maze of liquor and vice
conspiracy evidence, upon which the
report Friday was based.
