points with the volatile Auburn

Pacific made a new low in the
early trading and came back to
close higher with a firm railroad
group.

lationS, the Dow-Jones & Co. in

rate; electricity output increased
and its decline from year ago was
the same as the previous week.
Cotton futures held around the
previous close. The bond market
was mixed in narrow range. The
American dollar was steady in rela-
ton to European gold currencies.

at 357s, but quickly made up the
loss and moved higher. 1t. along
with other American stocks. was

Following is the explanation of
Ripley's Believe 1t or Not" which
appeared in Wednesdays Times:
An INDECENT American Treasury
Martin Van Buren, had been
President of the United States
only short time when a financial
crash occurred which precipitated
the greatest panic the country
had experienced up to that time.
On May 9, 1887, all New York
banks agreed to suspend payment,
and all banks of the country
with only few exceptions-fol-
lowed suit.
This general and almost stimuli
taneous suspension Of specia pay
ment completely denuded the
treasury of funds. The government
funds in those days were dis
tributed among the banks of
tWenty-SiX states. The President,
who had to wait for payment of
his salary, initiated steps which
led to separation of the treasury
from the banking institutions of
the country and to establishment
of the Sub-treaSury as an agency
for handling government funds.
The financial collapse followed
a period of speculation and credit
expansion lasting from 1925 to
1885.

Asserts His Court Had No
Link With Alleged Traf-
fic Officers.

Denial that perpetrators of an al
legged speed trap at Castleton, ex-
posed this week by city and state
officials, were operating under jul
riSdiction of his court, was made
today by o. D. Thomas, Lawrence
township justice of the peace.
John Taylor, Pearl Craig and
Charles Edwards, questioned by
state police and deputy prosecutors
Wednesday in connection with the
alleged trap, are associated in no
way with the justice of the peace
court, Thomas declared.
Complaint lodged with Grover
Garrett, state police chief, resulted
in sending of Ernest Pierce, state
policeman, to the trap" with only
one light burning.
The state officer was halted by
Craig, ex-deputy sheriff.
LAS for any alleged speed trap
concerning the justice of the peace
court of CaStleton, I know nothing
about it," Thomas asserted
while there was an arrest made,
I learned nothing of it until the
following day. 1 was not present
and had nothing to do with it,"

WHEAT MOVES

FOREIGN NEWS
New Developments Needed
to inspire Buying;
Trade Light.
BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE
United Press staf Correspondent

CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-Unexpected
weakness at Liverpool gave wheat
small dip as the Board of Trade
opened today. The stock market
was unsettled, but mostly higher
which tended to limit the decline.
Pressure was not heavy, but sup
port was slow in forming.
Trading was generally light. Corn
was down with wheat in a slow
trade. Oats held around steady,
but rye followed the major grains
lower.
At the opening wheat was 4 cent
to y cent lower, corn was Il cent
to p cent lower, oats unchanged
to = cent lower and rye as Is
cent to - cent lower. Provisions
we're steady and fairly active.
Argentina is Watched
There was very little action at
either Liverpool or Winnipeg
Wednesday, The Canadian market
closed unchanged to y cent lower
and Liverpool Il cent off. At MID
afternoon the English market was
q to y cent lower than Tuesday
The narrow range at Winnipeg is
attributed to pool influence.
Chicago apparently is at a point
where a new development is needed
to inspire buying. The low prices
check selling. The situation in Ar
gentina is commanding considerab BILE
attention.

Corn Exports Checked

Talk of further corn exports has
been checked for the time being by
the fact that South Africa is selling
to Canada and the Danubian grain
is underselling American in Eng
land Canadas only corn tariff is
on the United States article, thus
opening the market there to South
Africa.
Oats continues to move largely
with corn. There has been some
buying by cereal interests, but feed
er interest is light owing to the
cheapness of corn. Rye lacks indi-
viduality.
