Elsa shrank back against her pill lows as a vision rose before her of a prone figure on a bed in a small white washed room; room spot lessly clean, yet with menacing ars in the one window; a face on the pillow swathed in bandages and the h'deous scar disfiguring blot in contrast to the white linen. Mrs. Lawrence's voice in her ear sounded far off; only gradually did she sense what the woman was saying.
 Come across, sister," and Mrs. Lawrence stood looking down. at Elsa, her felt hat and wig once more in place. Its easier to pay the price than doin' term in the pen" she muttered coarsely.
 Elsa fumbled in the mesh bag which she had dropped in the inside pocket of her fur coat instead of returning it to it's usual hiding place. and drew out fifty dollars in gold.
 You will have to be satisfied with that" she exclaimed, catching Mrs. Lawrence's mutinous glance.
 For now" The woman pock- eted the money. Shall I come out for more tomorrow" suggestively, "or, perhaps,-tonight, when the men folks are home?"
 From her bag, which hung con- veniently on the arm of her chair, Elsa took a pad and the stub of a pencil.
 Your address?" she asked brief ly. and the woman, glancing at her uneasily, saw that she had gone too far.
 What do you want it for?" sus- picion overcoming her cupidity.

 'Is this 'ere woman a-botherin' of ye?" he questioned, touching his finoer to hiS ron visor and with an appraising glance at Mrs. Lawrence, "Mr. Winslow don't permit no tres passin', ma'am."
 Elsa pressed the blunted stub of her pencil against the pad as she wrote oown the figures in blind haste. Thank God Ferguson had come,
 The effect of the gardeners pres ence on Mrs. Lawrence was marked; instantly she was all suav- ity.,
 Just stopped for a friendly word" she announced glibly, 'see- ing this young lady through the gar den gate, sitting here so lonely. Well, I must be off," and she way ed her hand coquettishly at Elsa as she sidled thorugh the gate which the scowling Ferguson held open for her.

SPANISH BELIEVE
 PLOT FRUSTRATED
Several Hundred Probably Ar-
 rested in Madrid Trouble

Madrid, Oct. 13 P>-As a conse- quence of several hundred arrests in the principal cities of the nation, police believed today that they had suppressed an extremist plot for anti-government strikes and upris- ings.
 The total of those taken was kept secret but 1t was believed several hundred were arrested.
 Among those arrested was Major Ramon Franco, Spanish air hero and transatlantic flier, who recently announced his adhesion to a repub- lie organization. He is charged with a breach of military discipline"
 Several Groups Represented
 Leaders of the alleged anti-gov- ernment plot are said to have in- cluded communists, influential men in the most radical labor groups, ex- treme republicans, and Catalan sep aratist agitators Police say these went all over Spain organizing poli- tical strikes and proposing still more serious uprisings, by which they hoped to overthrow the monarchy and establish a republic.
 Strikes of varied character con- tinued today at Seville, Malaga, Vitoria and elsewhere.

STOCKS IRREGULAR
IN PROFIT TAKING
Recent Leaders Are Subject
ed to Realizing Sales
at Short Session.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.


NEW YORK, April 5.-Irregularity
with a preponderance of declines, but
with only isolated cases of weakness
characterized the week end stock mar
ket.
The rapid advance and record volume
of Friday attracted large-Scale realizing.
This was the principal influence upon
prices and not any change in the bust
ness or financial outlook.
Initial transactions showed mixed
changes from the preceding close. First
hour new highs were recorded in Cen
eral Electric International Harvester,
North American and Commonwealth &
Southern. The movement in all four
was simply a continuation of that In
itiated in the previous session.
Amusement Group.
The reaction was greatest in the
amusement stocks. Warner Bros Pic
lures, which had been weak on Friday,
sold off sharply again today as stop
orders were uncovered on the way down.
1t looked as though the group which
has been operating III this stock was
willing TO stand aside for the present.
Sympathetic declines were recorded
by Observation-Disclosures and General
Theater Equipment and Radio-Keith,
another stock which had made new
high Friday, was heavy. Radio itself
reacted partially, a not unnatural de-
velopment after its recent spectacular
advance. u. S. Steel was unable to
make progress during this proflt-taking
period and General Motors, in demand
at the start, was in supply.
A better showing was made by the
oils, although there were no large gains.
Standard of New Jersey was the leader
at approximately the best price for the
year and Standard of California, whose
1929 report became available over
night, set new high as it crossed $40
share. California Standards income
last year was slightly better than that
of 1928, Notwithstanding the difficulties
under which the industry on the Pacific
Coast labored.
Volume OF on Decline.
Lower priced oils were steady. The
fact IS that the prospects of the Oil
companies are visibly improving from
day to day, an improvement yet to be
adequately reflected in the market. Ma
tional Supply was ca feature in this
part of the list at the best of the year.
Earnings on the common for 1929 were
SI1.48 a share against $3.50 in the pre-
ceding year.
Volume fell off materially from that
of Friday which was a reaSsuring de-
velOpment. It showed that the market
was not out of hand and that the
