ARGUMENT ENDS IN SEVERAL ARRESTS Miami Businessmen Have Hot| Gonference Miami, Fla, July 19 (®—An ar- gument. behind closed doors as to | who constituted the lawful recei\'er\ of the defunct Fulford-By-th-Sea | | real estate development near here | ended in a voluntary parade to the police station and brought four prominent Miamians into municipal court today. A. L. arborough, real estate oper- “ ator, swore out warrants charging | We E. Burwell, president of the | Chamber of Commerce, with disor- derly conduct and "Fred Vanderpool, attorney, with assault and battery, ‘Vanderpool countered with disol derly conduct charges against Yar- borough and Louis Swig, an attor- ney. The hearing was postponed a | wcek, but the principals said the ar- gument arose regarding claims of Vanderpool and Yarborough over the receive: nip of the Fulford com- pany. Vanderpool was appointed re- ceiver by the circuit court about a year ago. Yarborough claimed he had been made receiver by the fed- eral court. Van “erpool stated that Yarbor- ough, accompanied by Swig, came to ' offict and requested transfer of all papers and records of the de- funct company. He refused to make the transfer, saylng he had received no order to do so. Exactly what occurred then has not been brought out yet but the charges followed. Burwell formerly was speaker of the Georgia “ouse of representatives and is said to have held the post peveral terms. Taunton, Mass., July 19 (/—Louls Ewig, reported as engaged in a real estate controversy in Florida, was belleved here to be Associate Jus- tice Swig of this district. Judge Bwig, with his family, has been in the south for some months. He {s a son of Simon Swig, poor Jmmigrant who made a fortune in real estate and banking in Boston. Later the Tremont Trust company of which he was vice-president was closed by the state banking com- missioner. Depositors have recov- ered only part of their money, al- though the state supreme court this ppring held that the stockholders of the bank were liable to a 100 per cent assessment. Simon Swig later started other enterprises in or near Boston which failed or were closed by officlals. Last year he became active in Miami real estate and financial af- fairs. His son, Louls, had assisted him during his troubles in Boston and it ‘was thought here that he was engaged in similar work in Florida. End of Lions’ Campaign Finds Braves Exuberant Everybody poured water on everybody else and tom-toms thumped this noon at the regular | Stockholders weckly meeting of the Lions club THE HERALD 18ca Week or 75¢c aMonth e which was held at the Burritt hotel. The Braves, the winning team of the membership .campaign, held the table of honor and came forth from the recesses of the serving pantry clad in feathers and tom- toms and clay pipes. Nobody could account Yor the clay pip2s in the general Indian make-up but they were there nevertheless. . T For a long time the Indians wouldn't &peak except for animal- like grunts which were forthcom- ing every once in a while. When they did break their majestic sl- ience it was to announce that an In- dian quartet would perform. A fairly shaky trio was recurited and |sang a song, aided by considerable encourageinent from the side-lines. Harry Hancock was taken into the tribe with impressive ceremony and was dressed in the beautiful robes of the tribes, consisting of a bandana handkerchief and another of the mysterious clay pipes. He joined the council circle and was soon emitting growls with the best of them. Louis Vogel was next initiated in- to the rites of the tribe, the cere- mony consisting of squashing a cup of water over his head. Then every- body began to throw water at each other and the meeting broke up with everybody red in the face and indignant. ®he lamb chops, which comprised the lunnch. were very good.

Investment issues continued to attract the most inter- est, with much of the buying re- ported to be fore institutional and European account. The credit outlook continues fav- orable. The declaration per cent stock dividend by the Com- mercial Solvents corporation, and the publication of the quarterly re- port of the Hudson Motor Car com- pany, showing earnings of $3.62 a share as against $2.52 in the pre- ceding quarter, had a bullish effect on sentiment. continues on a relatively small scale. Motor and public utility issues presented several points of strength General Motors crossed 208 to a new high record. ng of some of the minor motors | was said to be for the account of new investment trust which even- tually planned a merger of those properties. Abitibi Power crossed 99 to a new peak and good buying developed in Consolidated Gas and Peoples Gas. Electrical stocks moved into ncw high ground under the leadership of Westinghouse Air Brake and Manhattan Electrical Supply. Timken Roller Bearing and | American Bosch Magneto stood out | in the automotive group. Although the Kansas City South- ern Railroad, the first to report its | | June earnings, showed a slight de- crease in net operating income, the demand for the rails continued un- {abated, with Pittsburgh & West Vir- ginia, Atchison, Canadian Pacific and Gulf, Mobile & Northern in the forefront of the advance. Wall Street Opening Stock prices displayed a firm un- jdertone at opening of today's market. Iurther accumulation was noted in railroad group, based on the pros- pect of increased freight traffic this | fall. Americgn Bosch Magneto and Mathieson Alkali attained new 1927 peak prices. Although several of the larger commission houses have been urging their customers to take profits on the bulges on the theory that the technical position of the market had been weakened by the recent rapid advance in many Issues, speculators | for the rise continued their opera- tions with confidence. The ease with | which some of the standard indus- been bid up | trials and rails have been attributed to the sharp re- duction in the floating supply by the investment buying of the last month, indicating that a substantial portion of the half billion or more dollars | distributed in the form of July divi- | dend and interest payments has | found its way into the stock market. | Additional new high prices were re- corded by Manhattan Electrical Sup rly, Canada Dry Ginger Ale, Inter national Business Machines and Ba- i yuk Cigars. Oils displayed a firmer | undertone on reports that the un settled condition in the industry caused by the over-production of crude was being alleviated to some extent by record-breaking gasoline consumption. Reading and Atchi- son led the early advance in the rails. Foreign exchanges opened steady, with demand sterling quoted around $4.85 3-16 and French francs around 3.91 1-4, | THE MARKET AT 2:30 P.
