Telegrapher Goes Crazy; Scatters ‘Relay’ Machines CHEYENNE, Wyo., Jan. 26.— Having accumulated $6,000 through thrift and saving extend- ing through years, and decided to spend an indefinite period travel- ing, Carl L. Carlson, 43, chief operator here in the Union Pa- elfic telegraph office, went insane. So violent that it was necessary for guards to restrain him, he Was adjudged insane by a jury Thursday and was committed to the state hospital at Evanston. Carlson had charge of the intricate “relay” machines in the telegraph office. Just before he was taken into custody he dis- ™mantled these machines and scat- tered the parts. An expert since has been laboring to put the ma chines together. German Rail System Probed PARIS, Jan. 26.—The first com- mittee of reparation experts began an investigation of the con- dition of Germany's railway system. ‘The members heard W. M. Acworth, the British railway authority, and M. Lefevre, general secretary of the Union of European Railways. Both testified as to traffic conditions in the reich. Reorganization Plan Attacked WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.—Attack on the reorganization plan of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad now in receivership was re- sumed today before the Interstate Commerce Commission by Colorado state authorities. Attorney General W. C. Williams argued that pbysical valuation of all properti~s owned by the Denver and Rio Grande Western company indicates a worth of approximately 109,000,000. In the reorganization the creditors and owners of the rail- road proposed to issue securities having a total par value of $130,00 000 and in agidition to issue 300, shares of common stock to which no par value is assigned. This dis- parity, the attarney general said, makes the reorganization unfair to the people of Colorado. Czechoslovak Rep.

Country offerings to Chi- cago remained small, The opening which ranged from % to %c lower, May 79% to 79%c was followed by a drop which carried May down to 79% @%. Wheat and oats sympathized with corn weakness. Higher quotations on wheat at Liverpool had only a temporary effect on the wheat mar- ket here After opening at \%c off to %c up, May 1.09 to 1.09% and + 51b8 37 99% RAILWAY AND MISCELLANEOUS ‘ July 1.07% to 1.07%, wheat sagged all around to below yesterd: ish. Oats started % to %c lower, May 48% to 48%, and later declined a little more. Provisions, influenced by corn and hogs, were easier. King Albert and) Party at Movie!
