ELKS MANAGE TO SAW OFF WIN
FROM LEGION TEAM 10 TO 18

Can they take it? And how! Who?
Elks and Legionnaires! Why this
question? Well, after cursory
look over the roster of the city's
leading citizens this morning the
enquiring reporter was met with
many groans and sighs; was asked
to view several bum" digits and
asked further what liniment could
be recommended for aching limbs
and tired muscles.
The reason for all this is the
Elks-Legionnaires baseball game
played on Wilson school field last
night. The antlered herd having
more pep, "it" or something Of that
order outlasted their opponents and
banged out a 1918 victory.
Strange to say there were no cas-
ualties but several umpires came
near to being tarred and feathered
according to reports brought from
the battlefield this morning. One
particular instance in point was
when Judge Lee Nuffer, one of the
Elks' stalwart supports during the
game was called out for failing to
touch second during his progress
around the sacks on homerun
clout. To say that Hizzoner had
a right to feel somewhat peeved 1t
this decision is putting it mildly

JAIL INMATE
WOULD PASS
UP EATING

"Jailer! Oblige me with solitary
confinement for the period of a
hunger strike to accelerate action
in my case. r. S. Korner."
The above communication writ
ten in pencil on a paper napkin
was handed to Eddie Nett, jailer
at the county Jail this morning
shortly after he arrived to begin
the days duties as custodian of
the county's unwilling boarders.
This was a poser for Nett and
when asked later in the morning
what action he intended taking
in the matter he replied-none.
And in that case perfectly good
letter will have been written in
vain.
Korner is the man who several
weeks ago threw rock through
window in the door of the new
post office because he felt he had
a grudge against the federal gov
ernment. He had trouble at the
federal transient camp and was
brought up in police court on a
charge of disturbing the peace
and destroying federal property.
His case was transferred to the
federal court and will be heard
at the next session Of that court
in San Diego early next month.

New York Stocks
BY ELMER C. WALLER
limited Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK. May 26.-Gains
ranging to more than a point
were scored by a majority of is
sues in today's short stock market
session with volume around the
lightest in two years.
Sales totalled 100000 shares
against 249,000 last Saturday, the
smallest Saturday since July 9,
1892. Curb sales were $4,000 shares
against $4,000 shares last Saturday.
Dow-Jones preliminary averages
showed Industrial, 99.05 up 0.55,
Railroad 43.44 up 043, Utility 1880
up 0.06.
Slightly more activity came into
Allied Chemical and the issue rose
points. Elsewhere gains were
smaller. American Sugar Refining
rose more than a point when the
sugar quotas under the Jones'
Costigan bill were announced. To-
baccos continued to rise on talk OF
reduced taxes on cigarettes.
Silver issues we're steady to firm.
Rails moved narrowly as did mer-
camille issues. Amusements con-
tinued firm on better earnings re-
ports. Oils were dull at Slight ad-
vantages. Chemicals generally
! were higher with Allied Chemical.
Further indications or reduced
automobile output had no apparent
effect on motor shares. Chrysler
met fair buying and reached 40%,
up X point. It eased from the high
before the close. Electric Auto-Lite
moved in a as point arc in the
automobile issues.
Aviation shares recorded small
gains with Douglas at 20& up y
Wet stocks also were higher as
were gold mining issues and cop
pers. Pullman rose a point in rail-
road equipments. Steel issues were
slightly higher despite further
falling off in the rate of oper-
ations.
| Commodities were quiet but firm.
Wheat rose early in the day but
lost part of its gains. A feature
/, in the Chicago markets was cash
corn. A carload of No. 2 white
corn sold at so cents bushel or
SIX cents over the July future posi-
ton. That was the highest level
at which cash corn has sold since
July, 1888 Silver futures were dull
and steady. Cotton was barely
changed.
The bond market was dull and ir-
regular. United States government
saues were steady. High grade
railroad bonds continued firm.
