New York, Oct. 13.-R-Jack
Legs" Diamond, gangster and rack
eteer. rallied today In Polytechnic hos
pital from five bullet wounds In
flicted yesterday by would be assas-
sins who burst into his room in a west
side hotel. fired on him and fled.
Doctors who believed the gangster
chief to be dying, reported when he
awoke this morning from four hours
sleep that he had q fair chance to
recover and they regarded his condi-
ton SO much improved that they held
in allegiance plans for a blood trans
fusion.
Fevered and weak from loss OF
blood. his frame already weakened by
tuberculosis and stomach ulcers and
bearing the scars of five other bullet
wounds received several years g
when Little Augie" Orgen was shot
down by his side, Diamond awoke
today, glanced wanly at the headlines
about the shooting in the morning
papers and murmered to the patrol
man on guard at his hospital door.
"Oh, r you still there?"
!. Diamond va shot as he sat on the
edge Of his bed in his pajamas In a
room on the eighth floor of the Mon
ticello hotel on west 64th street
shortly before noon yesterday.
Two bullets entered his chest, one
on either side, another penetrated the
abdomen, a fourth lodged in the
thigh and the fifth inflicted a scalp
wound on the forehead.
Before sinking into q coma he told
police he did not know his assailants
or why they shot him.
All Blaxed Away

three men walked in. One said. Well,
here we are, let's co. and all three
blazed away at me. It knocked me
over on the bed and they ran out.
After a while l got to my feet and
went along the hall as far as the ele-
vator then I fell over again."
Diamond vas removed from the
hotel to the hospital in a private am
bulance before police learned Of the
shooting.
Discovery Of some of Diamonds
clothing in a room adjoining his,
occupied by Miss Marion Roberts, q
show girl, sent police on a search for
her.

DRIVE ON GERMAN
BONDS IS RESUMED
Government 5 LIS Sell at
Discount on Reports of
New Financing.
BY F. HI. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, october 4.-German
bonds were again weak feature of the
investment market today. The German
government 519s dropped back to 10
point discount and other German issues
sold off sympathetically on the an
nouncement that a further loan of
$125,000,000 would be sought in inter-
national markets at an early date. The
market looked with skepticism on the
prospects for further German dollar
loan
Money rates were unchanged. Volume
was good.
Local bankers have reports that the
new German financing, the purpose of
which is to support temporarily the
new financial program of the Bruening
government, will be in the form of six
months notes renewable for a maximum
term of two years, and that the notes
will carry a 4s4 per cent coupon. Even
with the notes in an attractive short
term form, bankers are inclined to the
view that they will hardly be market
able on less than per cent yield
basis, IS the long-term 5I2S are cur
rently quoted at over per cent ma
turtty yield basis. They estimate that
the notes will be marketed at $3.50 to
$3.50, according to maturity.
Other foreign bonds were dull, though
there was some selling activity in Rio
Grande do Sui issues on reports of q
revolution in that Brazilian state.

WEEKLY CLEARINGS.

Bank clearings this week cover a part
of the heavy payments incident to the
first of the month, and consequently
show a larger volume of settlements
through the banks than in recent pre-
ceding weeks. There remains, however,
a considerable reduction in comparison
with the exceptionally heavy amount of
year ago. Total clearings for the
present week at leading cities in the
United States, as reported to Dun's Re-
view, of $11,324, 475,000 are 20 per
cent below those of last year. At New
York City, clearings of $8,081 ,000, 900
are 80 per cent under last years, while
the aggregate at leading centers out
side of New York of $3,243, ATS 900 is
20.1 per cent less. Practically all of
the cities included show considerable
declines from the figures for year ago,
as well as from those for the correspond
ing week in 1923. but at number of
them the reduction is somewhat smaller
than it has been for the last two
months at least.
Clearings for the week, as reported
to r. G. Dun & Co., and average daily
bank clearings for the last three months,
are COMPARED herewith.

REDUCED INTEREST
FOR SAVINGS SEEN
U. S. Official Believes Action of
New York Banks Will Be-
come General.
By the Associated prnss

BY the Associated Press.
Belief that reduction of the inter-
est rate on savings deposits, which
started in New York City this week
would become general was expressed
here today by an official in the offices
OF the controller of the currency.
Speaking unofficially, and merely as
an expert observer, inasmuch as the
controllers Office does not have super
Vlsory powers over savings institutions
outside the District of Columbia, the
commentator declared in his opinion
the banks would be compelled to reduce
their rates if improbable operations
were to be avoided.
Attention was called to the low rates
prevailing in the time and call money
markets, both less than per cent dur
ing the week ended September 81, and
TO the low rates prevailing on bankers
acceptances. In View Of these subnor-
NAL returns, the cut in New York from
AZ to per cent would seem a fair
rate under present conditions, but still
out OF proportion to related monetary
charges" it was said
Under regulations governing the adj
mlnlstratlon of savings banks the rate
Tor any quarter can be announced at
S'AAJ SAAAN OGlAlllS lllG UldklIlR
it retroactive to the beginning of the
quarter.
The uncertain condition of the stock
market, and the poor return offered
by other heretofore popular avenues of
investment, have focused the attention
CT depoSitors to the relatively high rate
OF return offered by savings institutions,
and the result has been an almost I'M
precedented increase in total deposits
This, in turn, has worked hardship on
the depositary under prevailing money
market conditions on account of the
difficulty faced in investing the funds
on a profitable basis.
Commercial banks, generally, are not
| expected to cut their rates at this time
as th@ss institutions which maintain
savings departments generally pay a
smaller rate than the purely savings
| banks.
