Al Capone Leaves
Baltimore Hospital,
Moves Into House
Still Faces Long
Period of Treatment
For Broin MoIody
BY the Associated Press.


BALTIMORE. Jan. 8.-Scarface
AL Capone left his hospital bed
today and moved into a house here,
still facing long siege of medical
treatment for the lingering brain
malady he contracted in prison.
His physician. DR., Joseph E
Moore, announced the eX-gang
chieftain's departure and said at
the same time it was leo early to
tell whether Capone would benefit
from his disqualification.
DR.. Moore said Capone had shown
"some improvement" since he en-
tered Union Memorial Hospital No.
vember l6 a few hours after he had
been released from Federal custody
He said Capone would be "able tc
take short walks In a statement
he said Capone 'is suffering from
a long standing nervous disorder
for which he has undergone drastic
treatment and for which medical
care still is necessary.
"It is too soon to offer any opinion
as to the ultimate outcome, which
cannot be determined for many
months. Meantime, his condition is
such as to make his care outside the
hospital readily feasible
Capone was formally released last
November in Lewisburg. Pa. at the
Federal Penitentiary, where he had
been taken by Federal agents from
AlcatraZ. He had completed a
seven-year-term for evasion of in
come tax payments.
John Capone. AIS brother who
has visited him here, said AIS illness
was 'of chronic and not an acute
nature" He said 1T is not con-
templated that he will engage in
business activity of any sort, and we
are advised by his physician that
this will be impossible for at least
one year, if ever"
The duplex house where Capone
will be taken is on Pimlico road in
Northwest Baltimore.

To Quash Indictment

Norman Weinberg of White
Plains, N. Y. today asked the Dis
trict Court to quash an indictment,
charging him with aiding Bookniga
Corp. in its alleged refusal to file
registration statement with the
Secretary of State. He was repre-
sented by Leo A. Rover, former
United States attorney here.
In a demurrer. Mr.. Rover con-
tended each count was vague" and
failed to comply with the sixth
amendment of the Constitution, in
that it did not inform Mr.. Vein
berg of the nature of the accusa-
ton against him. References in the
indictment to Vsesojuznojc Objedi-
nenie, "Mezhdunarodnaja Kniga"
of Moscow, U. S. S. r., are mean
ingless, unintelligible and fail to
identify a foreign principal. as
defined in the law of June 8 last
year, the demurrer said.
The defense also accused the Gov
ernment of failing to- set forth pro-
mitigation of a registration form by
the Secretary of State, whereby
compliance with the act might be
made.

Stock Exchange Loses
$1,20O,00O in Year
By the Associated Press.

B, the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-The New
York Stock Exchange, one of the
Nations leading aggregations Of
business experts. was reported in
well informed financial quarters to-
day to have lost about 81 ,20O, 900 last
year.
This, on Wall Street, was regarded
as pretty good record since, in
1898, the exchange dropped 1,548, AIT.
A staff Of accountants is at work
now on the official year-end report,
but it will not be ready for another
month or so.
The $350,0O0 reduction in loss was
achieved by cuts in personnel,
salaries and taxes, it was reported.
The brokers who, as members of
the exchange pay annual dues for
its support, were hard hit in 1899 by
a IL per cent decline in the volume
of stock transactions.
