In the heart of the fashionable

houses Anne Morgan, William K.
Vanderbilt, Rodman Wanamaker,
I'd, and others Of society, the po-
lice were standing guard today
over 81 stills, to which they had
been led by a peculiarly behaved
tower clock.
The stills were discovered late
Saturday night in a raid on q
garage occupying part Of the
building formerly owned by the
Consumers Brewery.
None In Operation
There were Is stills Of 5000 gal
Ions capacity each, 10 of 1000.
gallon capacity each, and six of
varying sizes. None had been in
operation. In fact, several had
not been set up completely. No
mash or alcohol was found. Sew
eral trucks were in the garage.
Two men who said they were
manager and assistant manager
Of the garage and who refused
to give their names, quarrelled
with the police yesterday when
they arrived to find the garage
held by two policemen.
No Arrests Made
But the uniformed men were
adamant and announced the stills
would be turned over to the pro-
hibition authorities today. No ar
rests were made.
The property was sold by the
consumers brewery five months
ago. Though. except for the
garage premises on the ground
floor. no signs of life showed
in the building, the tower clock
lately began to exhibit idiosyn.

at various figures. from day to
day, the figures being far apart
from the actual hour Of the day
and remaining thus for hours
The police decided these peculiar.
tiles constituted signals. The raid
resulted.

TAXES SHADOW STOCKS

NEW YORK, Dec. 27-(P1-The
shadows which taxes to be levied on
1880 incomes have been casting
across the stock market this week
heightened today.
Joining forces with professional
selling and some liquidation they
became heavy enough to send the
list lower, but last minute short
covering frightened the picture and
net losses in active industrials and
utilities were largely fractional. Sales
totaled 1.394,722 shares.
A desire to establish tax losses in

Of the year offset favorable develop
ments in credit, a firmer tone to
grain prices and a prospective in
crease in steel operations IN the
Youngstown district next week. so
that the market was influenced al
most entirely by technical consider
atoms. Many commission houses
look for irregularly lower prices next
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
because of the tax factor, although
sales for this purpose on Dec. 81
must be made for cash.
Further evidence of the sweep
ing changes in the credit position
was offered by the reduction in the
interest rate paid on deposits by
New York clearing house members
to one per cent, the lowest in his
tory. In addition, the reserve bank
Of Cleveland cut its r~ediScount rate
to 3 per cent from 3 1-2.
