OVERTAXED AND WEAKENED HEART, ATTRIBUTED TO
 RTTTH'S PRESENT ILLNESS

NEW YORK, uJne ', P)-The Evening World said an overtaxed
 nd weakened heart will keep Babe" Ruth from the Yankee line I'D for month and perhaps for the remainder of the season. Ruth is described as a Pretty sick man" caused by 8 stubborn lung conges- Lion taxing his strength. He is fretting at the physicians order but must avoid excitement and will not be allowed even to drive an au- tomobile and has been refused per mission to attend baseh.all games.
 A doctor has been visiting him two or three times nightly. The exact nature of the illness, now ever, is still unknown.
 NewSpapermen and visitors were refused admission to the Ruth apartment mainly because of the excitement. Mrs. Ruth, a bride of two months is in constant attend ance and does her part in seeing Ruth obeys the doctors orders.
 It has been almost week since Ruth appeared in the Yankee line up. Last Saturday he slammed out his 10th homer and on Monday it was announced he would be unable to play because of a heavy cold

 The crowd cheered, then rushed across the square to witness the opening doors which ended the vol untary imprisonment of Pope Plus.

 The deputies found MT. and Mrs. Finn Bruun of Nome, just married, enroute to England on a wedding trip. By the time the honeymoon CTS demonstrated, by much wield- ing of paper and pencil the name was Bruun and not Brewer, the COntinental'S tail light had faded down the track and deputies start ed to rectify their mistake.
 They wired to San Bernardino to hold the Chief" another trans continental train, and arriving by automobile they put Mir. and Mrs. Bruun on. The conductor put them off explaining it was the wrong train; then the Los Angeles Limited was halted and the deputies put the newlyweds on but the conductor put them off.
 Finally the Continental caught up with them and this time every body was right. Mir. and Mrs. Bruun found recently vacated pullman section and the deputies found James Brewer and the three trains proceeded.

House Bin Approved.

Legalistic aspects of the radio situ-
alton absorbed members of the Senate
committee on interstate commerce as
they questioned Judge E. o. Sykes,
member OF the Federal Radio Commits
sion, during the second day of their
hearings on the bill to extend the COM
mission for another year. While the
Senate group was in session, the House
committee unanimously voted in favor
of reporting the bill and designated
Chairman White to prepare the report,
urging action on it at the present SeS-
aion.
Judge Sykes t3ld the Senate commit
tee, as he has told the House commit
tee, that he favored the proposed con-
tinuance of the commission because its
work is far from finished. In fact, he
stated his belief that a permanent COM
mission to rule over radio will be needed.
Not the least of the unsettled problems
are those surrounding the limitations of
the commission.
There are three cases pending in the
Federal District Court at Chicago and
nine in the Court of Appeals of the
District of Columbia, Judge Sykes said.
These should bring about legal de-
termination of such questions as vested
and property rights in radio and should
clarity the constitutional authority of
the commission. He reviewed these
cases. and Senator Dill pointed out to
his colleagues that he regarded the
WGY and WNYC cases as going Ito the
very heart of the law
The WGY case involves a licensees
right to renewal the validity of the
recent reallocation order regarding
property rights and the regulatory au-
thority of the commission The WNYC
case only involves property rights, but
raises the question of the commission S
authority and discretion in preventing
the city of New York from exercising
] municipal functions" in operating a
broadcasting station.

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, october 10 H).-Helped
by unexpected higher quotations at
Liverpool and by continued adverse
crop reports from Argentina, wheat
prices here averaged higher early to-
day. Argentine dispatches said general
rains were needed badly and that the
wheat crop situation was becoming crit
ical. Opening * to IA higher, Chi
cago wheat afterWard held near the in
itial range. Corn and oats also were
flrmer, with corn starting Il to up,
but subsequently reacting. Provisions
held steady.
Special significance by many wheat
traders here was given today TO an
estimate that the actual exportable
surplus Of wheat In Argentina at
present was only 16,650,00 bushels.
There were also adviceS that the new
crop Of Argentina was now in the milk
stage throughout parts Of the north and
that the outlook was precarious owing
to widespread dearth of rain. with Liv-
erpool wheat values today closing at
u to 13s penSe advance, considerably
higher than expected. The buying side
of the market here had q decided adj
vantage much of the time, and ex-
cept for proflt-taking no great selling
pressure was evident.
Meanwhile better demand for wheat
from North America was apparently in
the ofing. Talk was heard that an
increased proportion Of domestic Winter
wheat was taken for shipment to
Europe than has been the case for
some time, and at price which in
some instances was equal to the asking
basis at the Gulf of Mexico.

gas and electric concerns. It is pointed
out that q very large expansion II
under way In the utilization Of natural
gas resources, which should pave the
way for cheaper fuel for industry as
well as in the home. The demand
for electrical equipment is generally
conceded to be on the upgrade, not
withStanding the high rate Of activity
that has prevailed in this line for some
time.
Money Conditions.
money conditions have recently
eaSed considerably, and 1t seems rea-
sonable to expect some additional low
ertng Of interest rates in view of the
fact that the seasonal peak In the
demand for credit has passed. Many
good corporate reports are in pros
pect; railroad earnings are decidedly
favorable; revenue freight traffic Is at
q record level; inventories, with few
exceptions, are normal.
Many favorable factors of q nature
to affect investment sentiment came
to the front last week. Two railroads
placed orders for more than 5000 cars.
There was a decided upward trend In
exports. OF great significance Is the
fact that sterling exchange was at a
premium for the first time since July
Of last year; better gold position
was attained by the Bank Of England
and decline was registered in the
rates for both call and time loans"

CURB SHARES SAG
IN HEAVY MARKET
Utilities Are Again Target for
SeIIers-0iI Group Re-
sISts Pressure.
BY JOHN A. CRoNE.

SPECIAL DlSpetcn TO The star.
NEW YORK, october 18.-Opening
Irregularly, the curb market today
moved higher In the first hour. This
bulge was utilized to sell stocks and
haStened the decline, which continued,
with only minor Interruptions, through
out the first part Of the session.
Utilities were singled out by sellers.
The oils furnished contrast by their
comparative strength. Aviation and in
vestment shares weakened. Motor, mine
and railroad shares were inclined to
heaviness. Electric Bond & Share,
after opening down 47s pointS, regained
about half of this loss, only to react
again around midday. Similar ten
denotes could be noted in Electric In
vestors and Standard Power & Light.
United Light 81 Power A, American
Superpower and Middle West Utilities
continued heavy right from the opening.
Cosden was the feature of the indie
pendent oils as it jumped to a record
high price. Part Of the activity In this
stock Is based on reports of new wells
recently brought in. Standard Oil of
indiana moved within a fractional
range, despite reports, later denied, that
its subsidiary, Dixie Oil Co., had acquir-
ed the w. T. Waggoner properties. Ohio
Oil was twirled on prospective natural
gas developments.
Cities Service common opened I'M
changed and moved narrowly. Gulf Oil
Of Pennsylvania attracted attention be-
cause of its early decline. While some
Of the pipe lines, such as Illinois Pipe,
were heavy, others, like Missouri-Kan-
sas Pipe, as result Of pool operations,
advanced.
North American Aviation early crash
ed to q new low In the aviation divi-
sion Opening fractionally lower. it
dropped more than four points within
q few sales. Western Air Express was
somewhat higher In the forenoon than
in, recent sessions.
Earl Radio declined in sympathy with
the heavireSs of holster, with which it
Is being merged, over on the big board.
Dubilier Condenser also was heavy,
while other radio shares, despite sales
reports showing increased business, were
reactionary.
Pennroad Corporation stood out in
the rail list because Of its weakness in
the forenoon. This was due largely to
the fact, however, that it was selling
ex rights. Ford shares softened, while
Firestone common dropped more than
10 points at the opening and Subse-
quently moved irregularly.
Higher-priced industrialS met further
selling, Aluminium Co. Of America,
Tubize and Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea
displaying the most activity on the
down side. Dow Chemical shares at
times registered gain of more than 20
points. Phillip Morris, one Of the lower
priced issues, was exceptionally brisk at
slightly higher quotations.

BOTANISTS EXPLORE
SOUTHERN REPUBLICS
Scientists From q. s. Now Concen-
trating Work in Peru and
Ecuador.

Botanical exploration in Northern
South America, described as ''the most
important cooperative botanical inves-
tigation ever undertaken in this hemi-
sphere" Is being conducted under the
auspices of the Gray Herbarium Of Har-
ward University, the United States Ma
tional Museum and the New York
Botanical Garden, with the collabora-
ton Of the American Museum Of Natu-
cording to DR.. Nathaniel L. Britton,
director-in-ch of the garden.
Staff members of the United States
National Museum and Of the garden are
now covering the field in Northern Peru
and Southern Ecuador, DR.. Britton said.
G.. H. H. Tate Of the American Museum
of Natural History has completed q
successful collecting trip on Mount
Duida, in Southern Venezuela. The
important botanical specimens obtained
have been presented to the garden and
their study has been commenced.
Mount Duida evidently Is rich In
unique and rare forms Of vegetation
and the collection made by Mr.. Tate
will result in important additions to
botanical knowledge, Dr.. Britton said.
A long series Of cooperative botant-
cal studies preceded the organization
of the present explorations in South
America. Consultations in 1917 be-
tween DR.. Britton, DR.. B. l.. Robinson,
curator of the Gray Herbarium. and
F.. v. Coville, botanist of the United
States National Museum, led to the
initiation of an investigation Of the
fora of Northern South America under
the auspices Of the three institutions.
"These studies were planned to In
clude geographically the Guianas, Vene-
zuela, Colombia, Ecuador, the British
islands Trinidad and Tobago, the Dutch
islands Curacao, Aruba and Bonaire, and
the Galapagos Islands, politically APP
