HE special exhibition of PAINTINGS Inv
Walter Elmer Schodeld which open
ed in the Corcoran Gallery of Art
yesterday is uncommonly interesting
both in itself and because of the
painters high standing. There Is
probably no more distinguished painter of land
scape and the sea in this country than MFR
Schofield. and none, moreover, who 30 success
fully treads the narrow path between the old
and the new. In spirit and training Mr. Scho-
neld Is undoubtedly q traditionalist an aca-
demican, but in present viewpoint and practice
he shows keen sympathy with the tenets of the
modern school In so far as qualification of
design and strength Of execution 20. The say
ing is that the modernist painters deliver their
message with a single blow meaning that thew
are Immediately impressive; this Is one Of the
characteristics Of the group of paintings Mr.
Schof1eld Is exhibiting here at this time Each
one speaks for itself Immediately and in no I'M
certain terms.
Walter Elmer Schof1eld was born in Philadel-
phia in 1867; is a pupil of the Pennsylvania
Academy OF the Fine Arts, as well as of French
masters; member of the National Institute
OF Arts and Letters, the National Academy Of
Design, the Arts Club of Philadelphia the fell
lowSh1p OF the Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts, the Century Association, New York
and certain well known British organizations
such as the Chelsea Arts Club London and
the Royal Society Of British Artists.
1t has been his habit for some time to spend
half or more than half Of each year in Eng
land on the Cornish Coast, and most Of the
paintings included in this exhibition are of
that locality-pictures of the sea beyond bold
rocky headlines beneath a gentle green cover
lid; thatched-roof houses set in q dip Of the
hillsAor adjacent to the shore; a quaint old
bridge Of q single span beside an old mill
subjects which at glance would seem almost
to have been readymade to the artists hand
but which in reality without doubt have been
knowingly composed For Mr.. Schofield has
always consciously designed his paintings and
for this very reason they have been peculiarly
decorative and satisfying
At the time that Mr. Schofield studied in
Paris the French impreSSioniSt school was at
its height, and doubtless he profited by the
contact but he employed the French
impreSSionistS' methods, and he always has
painted with q full brush, broadly He did
learn, however, either from the French i'm
pressionistS or because the problems of light
were uppermost in every ones mind ct that
time, how to interpret truly effects of sunlight
and air with astounding realism. For some
years he was chiefly interested in painting Win
ter pictures-snow-clad hills, rivers In ice.
pale Winter sunlight shining through frosty
air. Two examples of such subjects are in
at his best manifesting his extraordinary

STOCKS SELL OFF
IN PROFIT TAKING
Trading Volume Declines as
Traders Realize on Re-
cent Advances.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
,iaI Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, November 10-Reac-
tionary influences predominated in the
stock market today Commodities weak
ened after their recent remarkable adj
vance and stocks showed the lack of the
stimulus that the other markets have
been supplying.
Early trading in stocks was at gen.
orally lower prices, for which two rea-
sons were assigned. One was the set
back in wheat and the other was the
unfavorable report from Europe as to
the German situation, which was re-
f1ected in the bond market by the
weakness in German dollar obligations.
Then there was the natural realizing in
stocks consequent upon the recovery OF
the last 10 days.
Trading Volume Declines.
1t was noticeable, however, that the
volume of business on the Stock EX-
change fell off decidedly. There was
no pressure anywhere and although
stocks lost a point or two, they made
good showing under the circumstances.
A somewhat surprising development
was that the railroad stocks made much
better resistance than the industrlalS.
Whether this was because OF eXpecta-
tions of a successful conclusion to the
negotiations between the brotherhoods
and the executives or whether IL was
the shifting from che group to another,
which is normal in rallying market at
this stage, is uncertain. Whatever the
reason. all through the mornings weak
ness in industrials the rails held firm,
with most OF them fractionally higher
on the day.
1t was to have been expected that
stocks such as International Silver,
which had advanced so rapidly-an APP
probation in this case in a weeks time
Of over 80 per cent-should have sold
off A greater decline would need no
other explanation than the extent of the
rise. The same could be said of the
copper stocks, except that these held
much better.
Opening Is Lower.
The market was lower at the open
ing, but losses were narrow and the
heaviness of the trading gave evidence
of a firm undertone.
United States Steel opened at 1894,
off shade, and later it dropped to
49,. Earnings reports, notably that of
the Radio Corporation, which showed
large increase in net earnings, served
to give the market strength. Canadian
Pacific's retention of its dividend rate
was bulliSh for the rail list. Radio
opened at las, up fractionaIly. Cana
Clan Pacific was off slightly at 1874.
Active industrials, such as Allied
Chemical, American Can, j. l. Case,
Radio"Keith, Westinghouse and Bor-
dens, were fractionally lower at the

PORT OF MISSING MEN

Father of Daisy or Rosemond Dawson-Between the years of 1897-19O1 a man placed a baby girl in the Mother Ryther Home in Seattle, Wash, and then left for Alaska. When the child was almost grown, a man claiming to be the child'S father and giving the name of Dawson, called at the Home. He stated he was from
 Alaska and intended to return, but gave no address. They were unable to locate the child at that time because of various adop- tions, but about two years later she called at the Home to try and trace her parentage and was advised of the inquiry that had been made previously. The girls name was given as Daisy or Rose mond Dawson. Anyone having any information about Daisy, who placed her in the Home, the whereabouts of her father, etc., should communicate with the Governors Office at Juneau.

By United Press
WILMINGTON, Del, Oct. 81
Actual plans for contesting the will
of the late Thomas A. Edison will
be begun Monday, the inventors
son. William J. Edison, told the
United Press today.
He will go to New York at that
time to confer with his attorney in
formulating action to be taken IN
an effort to break the will which
bequeathed the bulk of the $4,000
600 estate to Charles Edison and
Theodore Edison, younger half
brothers of William L. Edison.
The contest will be brought on
the grounds of "undue influence, "
Edison said.
When told of reports that mem
bers of the Edison family had held
a long consultation at East Orange,
N. j., late Friday, William l.. Edi-
son said he is not particularly in
terested in the action his brothers
and sisters may take.
Il am speaking and acting for
myself only" he said. Il do not
know their attitudes or intentions. .
He reiterated his statement, how
ever, that IT will not be alone in the
contest"
Friends recalled an incident here
today in the relationship of Will
liam L. Edison and his father. The
great inventor once stopped in
Wilmington to visit his son and left
him fancy towel as a gift.
Of this, William L. Edison COM
mented to friends:
"A towel is about the only thing
my father ever gave me-"

MRS. SIMMONS
RESTS IN JAIL
Poison Trial Arguments to
Start Monday.
BY STAFF CORRESPONDENT


LEBANON, Ind, Oct. 31.-Mrs.
Carrie w. Simmons, alleged poison
slayer of her daughter, Alice Jean,
surrounded by her family, rested in
the Boone county Jail today as at
torneys prepared arguments for
presentation Monday to the jury.
The state is not expected, through
statements of Prosecutor Ben
Scifres and Roy Adney. special
prosecutor, to ask that Mrs. Sim
mons be condemned to death, should
she be found guilty.
Defense counsel will plead with
the jury not to convict the 47-year-
old farm mother and will continue
its intimations that mystery
killer placed Strychnine capsules in
chicken sandwiches at the fatal pic
mic here June 81.
Judge John w. Hornaday has al
lowed six hours of argument to each
side and the case is expected to be
turned over to jurors for delibera-
ton Tuesday or Wednesday morn
ing.
Four verdicts are possible: First
degree murder, calling for the death
penalty; second degree murder, with
life sentence; voluntary man.
slaughter, with a two to twenty
one-year sentence, and acquittal.
If the woman is freed, it is likely
the state will try her again on
charge of numbering her other
daughter, Virginia. who also was a
victim of strychnine at the tragic
outing.
