and Mais were awaiting execution for
the latter murder.
Three members of the gang have
met violent death, one at the hcnds
of Washington police, another when
cornered by New York detectives, and
the third during a one-way ride on
which he was taken by Pittsburgh
gangsters last Spring. At least one
other gangster was shot when cap
tured, and several other persons have
been wounded in brushes with the
mob, including a mail employs shot
during the hold-up of a mail truck
under the Union Station shed last
December.
Worry Is Blamed.
Fellow officers of Duke blamed his
suicide on worry over the jail break.
John G. Saunders, Richmond city
sergeant and Dukes superior officer,
said Duke had been brooding over the
successful Jail break and the death
it brought to a fellow officer.
Duke ended his days tour Of duty
at 6 o'clock last night. Less than
half an hour later he returned to
the Jail and went Immediately to the
bookkeeper's Office.
The man who admitted Duke was
still locking the jail door when he
heard the shot.
City Coroner j. M Whitfield issued
a verdict of suicide, according to the
Associated Press.
Duke was the man directly in
charge of the two gangsters while
they were in custody IN Richmond
jail. HE hasn't been himself since
the day the two gangsters broke
away" Sergt. Saunders said. He had
moped around the jail looking very
much worried and depressed" Saun-
ders said Duke was one of the best
men at the Jail and that ne himself
did not in any way held Duke ac-
countable for negligence in the es-
cape Of the two men.

ander is bound to play into the hands
of the Austrian NaZis. The concern
Of Italy and France over more i'm
portant immediate problems concern
ing their own safety will prevent
these two countries from interfering
with another coup in Austria, and
the present Vienna administration
can be swept out of Office within a
few hours
Italy, seriously concerned over her
relations with Yugoslavia, is no longer
in a position, with France more or
less out of the picture as an active
asset, to make the same display of
force to preserve Austria's so-called
independence as it did last Summer.
Hungary, while in sympathy with
the Italians, might be placed in a
position to choose between an under
standing with the Austrians, that is
to say the Germans, and the Yugo-
slavS. Despite her aversion for the
YugoSlavs and her dislike of the" Ger
mans. she may be forced by necessity
to adopt a friendly neutrality and
not interfere with the free conimuni-
cations between Germany and
Yugoslavia. '''''
Thus within the next few months
the world may see the German in
fiuence extended from the North Sea
to the Adriatic, lineup which
would close Central and Southeastern
Europe to the other powers.
The French and the Italian diplo-
mats are fully aware Of this danger
and are endeavoring to avert it.

LauaI Takes Post of BdrtEOu,
Buried as Martyr by France
DOumergue appoints
Marchandeau to Be

Justice Minister CherOn

Reorganization.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, October 13.-France ac-
corded her foreign minister, Louis Bar
thou, a martyrs burial today, then
witnessed the sudden reorganization
of the cabinet, so sadly depleted by
his assassination and the attendant
storm of controversy.
Premier CASTOR Doumergue eulo-
gized Barthou in public as a man of
peace. Then he retired into special
cabinet meeting to face a ministerial
war.
Laval Succeeds Barth0u.
He made Pierre Laval, his minister
of colonies, successor to Barthou as
minister of foreign affairs. He placed
Paul Marchandeau, a former min
lister of finance, in the chair vacated
by Albert Sarraut, who resigned as
head of the ministry of interior be-
cause of the assaSsinations at Mar
seille. He replaced Laval as colonial
minister with Louis Rollin, former
minister of marine.
At the close of the cabinet meeting,
which had been attended by President
Lebrun, Henry Cheron, minister of
justice. climaxed the shake-up by
turning to Premier Doumergue and
rendering his resignation. The pre-
mier accepted it, although he had pre-
viously remained steadfast against
opposition clamor for Cheron's re-
moval as result of the Stavisky scam
dial and the closely linked murder of
Judge Prince. The premier named
Senator Henry Roy as the new min
lister of justice.
Solemn Tribute Paid.
France paid solemn tribute to Bar
thou, slain last Tuesday together with
King Alexander of Yugoslavia just
after the latter had arrived on a
visit which the foreign minister had
counted on to help cement the peace
of Europe.
In a brief but impressive funeral
address, Premier Doumergue told how

TRADING
BROADEST IN
MONTHS
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Jan. 20 U.N.S0.
The stock market resumed its ad-
vance today and the main body of
issues moved into new high ground
for the present movement in the
broadeSt trading in months. The
ticker fell behind at the start with
the exception of a few minutes
after the first hour and never
caught up with the market until
the close.
Bull Tactics Used
Spectators for the advance
again resorted to the old-time bull
market tactics of rotating sponsor
ship from the rails, to the SteelS,
and then the rubber, liquors, and
amusement shares.
While profit-taking was apparent
IN the first hour, the list had no
difficulty in absorbing the selling,
which at no time was very heavy.
New High on Move
United States Steel was one of
the outstanding strong spots, as it
mounted more than a point to d
new high on the present move
ment and the best levels since last
summer.
Liquor shares also gave a sur
prising demonstration of strength
near the close with National Dis
tillers, Schenley, and American
Commercial Alcohol gaining l to
Q points.
Rails in Demand
Motor shares were disappointing
as General Motors and Chrysler
showed a reactionary tendency.
Railroad shares were again
among the favoriteS with the trad
ing element. New York Central,
Lackawanna, Southern Railway,
and Southern Pacific were taken
in large volume at the best prices
since last summer.
Armour was a weak spot, losing
more than points on a stock
holders fight against the manage
ment.
