NEW YORK, June 26 G.N.S0.
Skyrocketing values for grains
and cotton today sent stocks
booming l to points to a test
of the highs for the year.
The bulls threw big orders into
leading stocks such as U. S. Steel
and American Telephone and the
utilities as the market again hest
tated at the old barrier of the
years highs in an effort to drive
the list through. Heavy profit
taking had to be absorbed and
leadership was rotated from group
to group until this was out of the
way.
With wheat at it's peak, up 6
cents a bushel, and cotton $3.50 a
bale, bullish sentiment was again
dominated and was translated
into a heavy demand for stocks.
The repeal stocks set the early
pace under the leadership of Ma
tional DiStillerS, which spurted
into new record high ground. The
second hour saw a spectacular
whirl in the farm stocks, with
Case Threshing soaring more
than 6 points.
Later the steels and utilities
were taken in hand, while the
early afternoon saw increasing
activity in the oils.

Conviction Of three colored men
of first-degree murder in connec'

Policeman Milo Kennedy last

affirmed today by a decision OF
the District Court of Appeals.
The men, who are in District
Jail under sentence of death in

three were found to be leaders OF
a mob that "ganged' the police
man and beat him to death on
the night of August 7 after Ken
nedy had placed Jackson under
arrest.
Nine assignments of error dur
ing the trial were cited by the
attorneys for the accused men
but the Court of Appeals ruled
they had been given a fair trial.

by U. S. Attorney Leo A. Rover and
his assistants, Williams H. Collins

ROME POLICE.
HOLD BOMB
SUSPECT
Greek Citizen Recently Came
From Spain; Confesses
Carrying Explosive

VATICAN CITY, June &c
(I.N.S.). - A Greek citizen
named Demetrius Solamon was
arrested by police today in con-
nection with the bomb blast at
St. Peters Cathedral which re-
suited in injury to four per-
sons.
Solamon, reported to have ar
rived recently from Spain, carried
a Spanish passport. Vatican
circles believed he was implicated
in recent anti-religious activities
in Spain.
The prisoner was reported to
have admitted depositing the
bomb, contained in a battered
suitcase, in an anteroom Of the
cathedral and then mingling with
a party of Italian pilgrims in an
effort to escape detection.
The explosion rocked the ca
thedral shortly after noon yester-
day, terrifying worshipers and
blasting the Vatican's Sabbath
calm. The bomb exploded in the
part of the cathedral between
the gates and the church doors,
where visitors must deposit all
packages.
The explosion caused no damage
to the cathedral, but made it neces-
sary to close the portico for 4S
minutes while fragments Of the
bomb were collected.
Pope Hears Blast
Pope Plus, who was in the
Vatican library, $50 yards away,
undoubtedly heard the explosion,
although the bomb was not pow
erful and the detonation not ex-
ceptionally loud.
Police at first arrested for ques"
tioning a pilgrim peasant from the
village of Segni. A party Of Segni
peasants we're in st. Peters at
the time of the blast.
Other peasants were also ques-
toned by Rome and Vatican po-
lice.
Plus Gives Blessing
AS soon as Pope Plus was in
formed what had happened, he
sent two private secretaries to a
hospital to give his blessing to the
injured.
Of the four wounded, three
were permitted to return to their
homes after emergency treatment.
The ",urth. Alessandro SartoriS,
Pisa airplane engineer, suffered a
seriously torn leg and underwent
an immediate operation.
The explosion occurred when
only the customary masses were
being said and no special Holy
Year events were scheduled.
It was the third bomb attempt
at st. Peters in less than two
years, and the first actual bomb
explosion.

PARK SAVINGS
CASE BEFORE
D. {. JURY
Rover Asks Indictment Today
Against Ex-Treasury Man,
Tip-off Agent for Stunz

Indictments against four
persons in the ST, 100000 short
age at the Park Savings Bank
were asked of the District
Grand Jury today by United
States Attorney Leo A. Rover.
Rover went before the jury at
10 a. m. and completed presenta-
ton of his case when the inquisi-
torial body adjourned for the
luncheon recess.
Only three witnesses were in
troduced to the jury. They were
Mrs. Emily Downey, head book
keeper at the bank; A. F.. Jorss,
president, and E. c. Sauer, De-
partment of Justice accountant.
Was Zip Off Man"
Rover said he expected a report
from the Grand Jury on Wednes-
day, which is the last day of the
jury'S term.
Among the four persons against
whom the indictments are being
sought are a former Official of
the United States Treasury De-
partment, a former bank en-
ploye, and two depoSitors.
The former Treasury official, It
is understood, is alleged to have
given the tip-off to Robert Stunz,
the banks vice president, when
ever bank examiners were con-
templating a visit to the institu-
ton.
StuntZ A Suicide
Stunz committed suicide last
March. Following his death an
investigation into the banks af-
fairs revealed the shortage.
Hopes that depositors of the
Park Savings may have enter
tanned of getting back 100 cents
on the dollar" based on a rumor
that the bank had been operat-
ing on an expired Alabama char.
te, appear to be blasted today.
Treasury officials who have
maintained close touch with the
investigation of the banks affairs
state hat the charter was granted
in 1914 and will not expire ur-
til 1884.
Full Report Due
Many depositors who are
threatened with the loss of most
of their savings have entertained
the hope that, if the bank had
been operated on a charter which
had expired stockholders in the
bank would have become partners
in the business and as such liable
for the entire threatened loss.
Another hope which a number
Of the depositors are said to ELL
t2rtain is based on a report that
directors of the bank passed on
number of the bad .Jans" made
by StunZ and hence are subject
to suit to make good resulting
losses.
The committee aamed at a
recent meeting of depositors to
study the banks affairs is 20
submit a report of it's findings
at a mass meeting to be called
in a few days. This committee
is headed by j. w. Thompson.

NEW ANGLE
MAY LEAD
HIM To
Pecora, Senate Firebrand, to
DeIve Into Intricacies of
the Pennroad Corporation
BY International News Service

The great private banking
firm of Kuhn-Loeb and Com.
pany, only rival of j. P. Nor
gan and Company in the realm
of international finance, faces
a. sweeping Senate inquiry into
its financial operations during
the boom years.
The inquiry will get under way
tomorrow, under direction of Fer.
dinand Pecora, brilliant New
York attorney. 1t will reveal Q
deadly parallel between the oper.
ations Of Kuhn-Loeb & Company
and the sensational revelation OF
the Morgan firms control of in
dustries through the financing
Of holding corporations.
Kahn to Testify
The story will come from the
lips Of Otto Kahn, suave million.
aire banker. Several other men,
bers of the firm may be heard
later
A few more business secrets
fro"1 the private life of Norman
H. Davis, President Roosevelt'S
special ambassador to Europe,
may furnish the highlights.
The Senate investigators were
in possession of evidence showing
Davis accepted a $4,000 fee from
Kuhn-Loeb & Company for ne
gotiating a Chilean potash loan
in 1880. The loan was defaulted
later.
The incident will show Davis
as a business man and attorney
closely associated with Kuhn
Loeb & Co., in an ill-fated South
American venture.
The Morgan inquiry revealed
him as one of the favored
clients" of that great banking
firm, allowed to purchase choice
securities at sub-market values.
He May Resign
The new angle of his operations
may precipitate his resignation
as Roosevelt's private ambassa-
dor to Europe.
Pecora planned to present q
picture of the Kuhn-Loeb opera
tions through financing of hold.
ing corporations. One instance
will involve the Pennroad Cor
poration, a giant holding cor
poration for railroad and other
securities. The corporation was
organized by officers of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company but
the banking firm soon acquired
control of it.
Gave House Control
Pecora will show how Kuhn.
Loeb helped to finance the cor.
poration. At the start, it was
controlled by three trustees, w.
w. Atterbury, Jay Cooke, and
Effingham B. Morris, all direc-
tors of the Pennsylvania railroad.
A little later, Atterbury and
Cooke resigned, their places be.
ing taken by James S. Alexander,
Of the Guaranty Trust Company,
and Joseph Wayne, jr., of the
Philadelphia National Bank. This
gave the bankers control of the
corporation.
The corporation purchased Sc
