STAYS HIS KIN,
SURRENDERS

STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, Sept. 10
QNSO.-Calmly walking into the
courthouse here today, James
Arthur Moore, Is, a coal operator,
told Sheriff Ray Long he had
killed his father-in-law, Joseph
Lucky, SIS, and his brother-in-law.
Joseph Lucky, jr., 81, in a family
feud at his mine near Rush Run,
Ohio, early this morning.
Long said Moore's wife accom-.
panied him to the courthouse and
also surrendered, asserting she had
aided her husband in defending
himself against an attack by her
father and brother.
Long at once sent deputies to
the scene to investigate. Moore
said the trouble between the men
had been brewing for some time
because waste from his mine at
times rolled over onto pasture land
on the Lucky farm, the sheriff re-
ported. Threats were made, &C
cording to Moore, as quoted by
Long, and this morning when he
went to the mine accompanied by
his wife he carried a rifle because
of renewed threats.
The two LuckyS threatened him
again with a shotgun, according to
Moore's story to the sheriff, and
the shootings occurred.

Thirty-four weary, bedraggled sur
vivors of the Inflated fishing steam.
er Long Island were removed from
the barge Hallowell here today
and given food and medical aid in
this coastal hamlet.
Exhausted by their battle against
the elements, members of the crew
found refuge in the buildings Of
the Consolidated Fisheries where
a temporary relief station was set
up.
Townspeople who had kept a
night-long vigil cheered the men
as they came ashore.
Captain PeriShes
Graphic tales were told of the
struggle to keep the Long Islands
lifeboat afloat in the raging sea
and of the crews rescue by the
barge's captain and crew Of three.
In the van of the weary group
to step ashore was Captain vii.
liam Bertrand, of Lewes, pilot Of
the sunken fishing steamer.
Majority of the survivors ap-
peared none the worse for their
hectic experience and a few ban
tered good naturedly as hot
beverage and food were given
them.
A pail of tradegy was cast over
the group when Coast GuardSmen
from the Indian River station re-
ported that the body Of Captain
Rooney George was picked up in
the surf between Rehoboth and
Dewey beaches. The body was
removed to an undertaking estab-

The Long islands survivors
were discovered early today aboard

 In 1928, one of the crucial bat ties in the pre-convention cam paign was fought in Ohio with Col. Carmi A. Thompson of Cleve land, aligned with the then secre. tary of commerce, Herbert Hoo yer, against a "favorite son, Frank B. Willis. In the background di- reCting the primary and pre-con- vention campaign was another Ohioan, Walter F. Brown of To. ledo, who became postmaster general.
 Former Senator Simeon D. Fess another Ohioan and former na- tional Republican chairman, co operated with Thompson and Brown in obtaining the 1924 con- vention for Cleveland.
 Five major party conventions have been held in Ohio. The Democratic convention of 1856 was held in Cincinnati as were the Republican Convention Of 1876 and the Democratic Conven- ton of 1880. The Liberal Repub- Han Convention of 1872 was held in Columbus. The last was the 1924 Convention here.
 Six Ohioans have been elected to the presidency, William H, liar rison, Rutherford BHayes, James A. Garfield, William Mckinley, William Howard Taft and Warren c. Harding.
 Three Ohio nominees were de feated: Harrison, 1886; Taft, iu 1912, when a split occurred in the Republican party, and James NJ, Cox, in 1920, when as Democratic nominee he was defeated by fellow Ohioan, Harding.

 CLEVELAND, May 19-Public Hall, in recent years the setting for colorful pageants, noisy cir cuses and the splendor of grand opera, will echo beginning June g with what may be the most interesting Republican political show in many years.
 The Republican party, in choos ing Cleveland for the nomination of it's 1886 presidential candidate, selected city and state where political contests are bitterly foul ght and widely appreciated.
 The hall itself has political back ground. Calvin Coolidge was nominated there in 1924 amid cries of Keep Cool With Coolid- ge.' The economy platform Whi- ch Coolidge took into the White House was approved there
 Expectations of national COP. leaders who hope the convention will generate power for sweep ing concerted drive against the new deal" are matched by those of Ohio Republican leaders. They expect the convention to provide the stimulus for a successful at tack on the Democratic regime in Ohio government.
 Expect Fighting" Meeting
 A spirited, boisterous gathering generally is expected. Lafayette B. Gleason, temporary secretary of the Republican national Con- vention, expects the convention will be a fighting one for the first time sine l912'

MARKET QUIET
AFTER GOOD
ADVANCE
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, May 20 GN.S).
The stock market moved upward
In good fashion today in early
trading, with several issues scoring
gains running to more than 8
points, then quieted down in a mar
row range slightly under the days
best levels.
Gold shares, SteelS, and rails
were leaders in the upSwing, which
was helped along by additional IA
vorable business news. Trading
was curtailed, however, as Wall
Street continued to keep a watch
full eye on the tax situation in
washington and developments in
France anent that country's cur
rency.
Dome Mines was one of the out
standing issues on the board, soar
ing 3 points at one time to 81, an
all-time high for the stock. McIn-
tyre advanced nearly 2 points and
Alaska Juneau ruled we'll above its
previous close on an active turn
over.
Steels and rails were in fair
demand, the latter aided by con-
tinued bullish news for the ma
tions carriers and the former be-
ing helped by the optimism of
steel leaders. U. S. Steel, Beth
lehem and N. Y. Central each
gained a point before reacting
slightly, while Great Northern
preferred was up nearly points.
