NEW YORK STOCKS

NEW YORK, July 80. REThe
stock market suffered a rather brisk

After a rather steady opening,
selling orders involving large blocks
OF the favorites unsettled the list
and the ticker tape dropped a min

activity dwindled i'm the second hour
and a buying furry In the ~aircrafts
brought support to many OF the
hard-pressed leaders.
The reaction was attributed large
ly to technical factors. Grains were
a trifle easier and cotton marked
time. The bond department indicated
no pronounced trend. Foreign ex-
changes were only moderately mixed.

PWA LOAN TO

Resigna To Be
Studied A t N e x t
Board Meeting On
Wednesday

w. A. Harding and four other di-
rectors Of the Willacy County ir-
xigation district rendered their re-
signations here Monday morning.
The designations were not imme-
diateiy accepted. and will be con-
sidered at another meeting Of the
beard to be held on Wednesday
morning.
In addition to Harding. resigna-
lions were offered by o. X. Dickin-
son. president Of the board, w. T.
Holder, and w. D. Sharp. It is
understood here that Bert Rains,
other member OF the board, has
stated that he would refuse to re-
sign.
Immediately after the meeting
President Dickinson and other
board members left the office Of the
irrigation district for their homes
and refused to comment on the
meeting, saying that the whole mat
ter would be settled when the
board reconvenes on Wednesday Of
this week.
As special PWA representative
Governor Moody Is believed TO have
come here to present In person the
demands made upon the board last
week by Secretary Ickes, when he
demanded the designations Of the
directors as a condition TO the re-
lease OF q $4.853,000 allotment made
the district by the PWA. Moody
was in Washington recently In con-
ference with Ickes and was COM
missioned by the administrator to
iron out the Willacy county diff
ficiulty. The former governor has
been doing other Investigations for
the Public Works administration.
Ickes move last week was the
first to be made by him since a
District of Columbia court dismiss
ed the indictments which charged
fraud on the part Of several per-
sons connected with the project.
PWA officials at Washington
stated then that IckeS had specified
the new board must be satisfac-
tory to him and that several un-
named matters must be settled
satisfactorily" before the loan
would be released and construction
allowed TO begin.

Blanche Dunkel. mother-in-law of
the slain man, and alleged instigator
u the Staying.
First Denied Story
Mrs. Smith at first denied Mrs.
Dunkel's purported story that she
had hired the former TO kill Lang
for a fee Of $500 Of which 500 was
paid, Mrs. Dunkel was reported to
have said, as q retainer. But, Dough-
erty said, after Mrs. Smith was
brought into the presence Of her
accuser for the second time, she told
what Dougherty said was a Gem
plete confession"
The assistant states attorney said
the alleged confession corrobrated
almost completely the story he said
Mrs. Dunkel told after her arrest
July 10 when she was alleged to have
admitted hiring Mrs. Smith tc STAY
her son-in-law because of jealousy
Of Lang's attentions to other wo-
men since the death OF Mrs. Dun
kel's daughter, Mallie, in 1884.
Mrs. Smith. Dougherty said, told
him she had not seen Jung since a
few hours after the Staying during
which. the assistant states attorney
said Mrs. Smith disclosed, Jung sat
In a a in front Of her place "shak-
ing like a leaf"
According to Dougherty, Mrs.
Smith said she and Mrs. Dunkel in
vited Lang, 28-year-old grocery clerk,

night Of July 5 and that after he
became unconscious from drinking
whiskey. Mrs. Dunkel left. Then.
Dougherty said the woman admitted
she strangled him with q rope.
Cut OFF Legs
She was then quoted by the Off.
GERS as saying she left the apartment
and purchased a hacksaw at q near
by hardware store. returned and cut
off the victims legs. Mrs. Smith,
Dougherty alleged, then called Jung
upstairs and together they placed
his torso in a trunk and wrapped his
legs in a blanket, put the lead in
lungs car and drove to near Ham
mond. Ind, and dropped the trunk,
blanket and saw and Lang's body
IN q swamp.
The pair, according to Dougherty's
recitation OF the alleged confession,
then separated and Mrs. Smith went
by bus to New York where she was
arrested last Saturday. She was re-
turned here by plane Monday after
waving extradition.
Suspicion was first directed In the
case to Mrs. Dunkel by Lang's
fiancee who after identifying his
body. said that the victims mother
in-law had long been jealous. Ar
rested in a hospital where she had
undergone a t~onsilectcmy. Mrs
