 WITNESS GREAT
 RACE OF YACHTS

 He Will See It

Newport, R. l.. Sept 15-tUP)- President Roosevelt entered this rain-swept port today, first ti seek further data on the turbulent tex tile strike situation and then, ii business does not interfere, to wit ness the Americas cup races. The chief executive was aboard Vim cent Astor's yacht Nourmahal hav- ing sailed yesterday from Pough- keepsie, N. Y. The Nourmahal he intends to have as his grandstand during the contests between the British challenger Endeavour and the Rainbow.
 His first official business was a conference at historic Fort Adams There MT Roosevelt will hear tex tile strike developments from Sec retary of War George H. Dern and Major General Fox Connor of Bos- ton. That discussion was expected to determine hte course of the president-whether he would take a direct hand in the labor dispute or feel that the situation had eased sufficiently for his aides to handle it. On the trip across Long Island sound the radio of the Nourmahal buzzed almost inces- sanity with national news which the president followed with inter- est.

Thieves Abandon Hearse
 After Stolen Joy Ride

It's bad enough when you see a suspicious-looking black auto on dark road, but when you open it from the back and find inside Q cold marble slab and all the appurtenances of the undertaking craft, then even veteran policemen can't be blamed if few chills go up and down their spines. Motor PatrOImen Alfred Overton and Joseph Garvey had such an experience last night.
 IdylwOOd avenue, between Hamilton Park and new St Joe scph's cemetery, is dark about 3 o'clock in the morning, and it was very much that way when the two policemen, in a motor patrol cruiser, drove slowly through the rain this morning. At the side of the road they saw a black vehicle and stopped to investigate.
 Looks like hearse, doesn't it?", asked Oyerton, "but 1t couldn't be, out here and at this hour"
 The two officers then went to take a look. A light was flashed into the inside of the vehicle and it reflected on an OminOus looking marble slab. Into the air came a smell of

 New York, Sept 15-(UP )--In- terest in the stock market fell to a new low this week and the price level was around the lowest since 1883 on the average. The Dow Jones industrial average was at a new low since July 25; railroad since April 29, 1893, and utility since July 21, 1892.
 Sentiment in the financial com munity fell to a lower level than stock exchange prices. Pessimism prevailed in all quarters. As prices of stocks declined, seats on the stock exchange and on the curb made new lows since 1892.
 Business news was not cheering either Retail trade had a little lift here and there aided by gov ernment doles in various sections; building rose somewhat on gov ernment contracts; automobile out put was little better and so was steel production but neither made anything like the seasonal rise to which they are entitled at this time; car loadings made a greater than seasonal decline; electricity output also was more than season. ally lower.
 Added to the foregoing were wide declines in all the grains, a drop of $1.50 a bale in cotton, an weakness in nearly all other com modies. The United Press-Dun & Bradstreet daily commodity price index fell more than ? points on the week.
 Further declines in United States government bonds were a factor in an unsettled bond market where the average for 40 repre- sentative bonds dropped 1 1-2 points. Many of the U. s. govern ments, notably the home owners loan issues, now classed as full fielged governments, were at new lows. The government announced it's Sept. 15 and Oct 15 financing
