means more to Lorrillard than to any
OF the other producers. for the fight

on Lorillard securities both the stocks

Reynolds were able to show good earn
ings while the battle was on, and Lig-

that last weeks shake-out. one of the
most drastic on record, had materially
improved the markets position, opin-

future course of prices. A renewal OF
liquidation was looked for in some
quarters within the next week, while in
others it was felt that last Fridays
lows would stand for some time to come.

easier. Call money dropped from 6l2 to

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, March 5.-Three more
men were named by police today as
members of the machine gun squad
which executed seven Bugs Moran
beer runners here on Feb. IA.
They are Joseph colorado, whose
brother, Pasqualino, was murdered
after he had succeeded the late
Tony Lombardo as head of one
branch of Sicilian gangsters allied
with Scarface Al Capone, and Fred
erick r. Burke and James Ray, who
are believed to have been imported
from st. Louis.
The latter two, police believe wore
police uniforms and aimed at least
one of the Thompson machine guns
with which the Moranites were
wiped out.
Jack McGurn, who was arrested
last week in a hide-out in the
Stevens hotel with his girl, Louise
Rolfe, is pictured now as the pay
off man of the executions instead of
an actual participant in the muir
derS.
Police say they believe McGurn
arranged to have the Moranites
put on the spot" where they could
be killed and that he paid the ST.
Louis gangsters $4,000 each for
their bloody task.

Shut Down.

By United Press
PEORIA, Ill, March 5.-Tracing
labyrinth of bootleg trails, police
and federal officers today joined in
hunt for the source of the poi
soned alcohol which formed the ba-
sis for death toasts" that killed
fifteen persons here, left eight per-
sons blind and twenty-five others
critically i'll.
Several of the twenty-five persons
are not expected to live. They are
under treatment in their homes and
in hospitals, suffering intense agony
from the poison.
Physicians hold out little hope
that the affected persons will es-
cape blindness or death.
Three arrests were made Monday
and the police drive resulted in 5000
bootleggers shutting down. The poi
son was distributed the latter part
of last week through Peoria and
Washington, Vermont, and Wisely
City, all villages near Peoria.
1t is feared that some of ii
reached Galesburg and Decatur, al
though as yet no reports have been
received of any one suffering from
the liquor there.
Police said the poison was dis
tributed from a fifty-gallon batch
manufactured under new proc
ess." The alcohol was purchased by
nearly two score persons, it ap-
peared, the cocktails they manufac-
tured with the liquor proving death
potions.

WASHINGTON, March S.
The longest flight record ever
reported to the biological sur
vey for a banded bird was that
of a fledgling Arctic tern,
banded at Turneyick bay, Lab
rador, on July % of last by
Oliver L. Austin Jr. This bird
was found dead on the beach
at Margate, fifteen miles
southwest of Port Shepstone,
Natal, South Africa, on New. IA.
This is remarkable record,
not only for the distance COW
cred, but for the time element,
as the bird could have been
only about three months old.
1t suggests the possibility that
the birds, which rarely or
never are seen on the south
Atlantic coast of the United
States, may cross the ocean to
Europe, and then proceed
south.
