Lock Her Up, Father Says Judge Roche, at the opening' of the trial, appointed Miss Ruth E. Bristoll, woman probation officer, guardian of Mary, and ordered a plea of not guilty on all accounts. After hearing the evidence, he said he would not take jurisdiction and the questions of bonds was raised.

RASKOB DENIES HE INFLUENCES MARKET (Continued from First Page) | without foundation for 800d reasons. “In the first place, since I have taken this position as democratic national chairman I have not been near my office and have not pur- chased any stock whatsoever. “In the second place, it is my opinion that security prices have so far outrun demonstrated valuas, earning power and dividend returns that a material readjustment is necessary before they will again be attractive to the prudent investor. The course of the bond market is a two very tor stands in relation to present se- curity prices. Dividend returns are low and money rates are high.” Twice last spring statements by Mr. Raskob started strong buying speculation that carried General Motors and other leaders up on the stock market. When he sailed for FEurope the latter part of March, Mr. Raskob said General Motors shares should sell at 15 times the earning power or in neighborhood of $225 a share. It was selling then around §180. A flood of buying orders was released by this state- ment. The high point reached by General Motors this year is under 219. Speculators in June seized upon his statement that “business, big and little, has nothing to fear from Governor Smith.”” General Motors, U. 8. Bteel, Anaconda Copper, Al- lied Chemical and New York Cen- tral were all bid up. In other interviews Mr. Raskob said he looked for 13928 to be a fine business year, much better than 1927. He was quoted as saying, “We will never again have such panics and business depressions as we had - |in the past.” YENO SAYS COOLIDGE WILL CARE FOR HIM Man Injured by Executive's Son Declares Prosident Will settle for Injuries Incurred. New Havenm, Oct. ¢ (UP)—Presi- dent Coolidge has promised to “take care of" Wilfred Veno and his mother, Mrs. Mary Veno, who were seriously injured when their auto- mobile was struck by a car driven by the president’s son, John, Veno said in an interview at New Haven hospital today. Veno, who was thought to be dying after the collision last Thurs- day, seemed in excellent condition today, considering his injuries. “What's a crack on the head to a hockey player?” he asked. For- merly Veno played with Boston, Philadelphia and New Haven pro- fessional fce teams. On a bureau in the private ward were {wo vases, each containing a dozen American beauty roses. “A present from Mr. Coolidge,” said the patient. Veno sald that while no definite {terms of agpettiement had been dis- | cussed, he had been given to un- derstand by Everett S8anders, Presi- dent Coolidge's private secretary, and Major James F. Coupal, the president's physician, that Mr. Coolidge wished to do everything possible for him. John has visited his bedside sev- eral times, Veno said. Doctors said Veno's recovery had been unusually rapid for & man with a fractured skull. Mrs. Veno, who is §6, has made less rapid re- covery, although her condition was iuld to be “very good” this morn- ing.

Carleton to Ellen 1| ADVANCE STOPPED IN STOCK HARKET Raskob's Statement Responsible for Temporary Check New York. Oct. 4 UP—A sweep- ing advance in stock prices today was temporarily checked by a heavy selling movement which followed the publication of a statement by John J. Raskob, former Generai Motors executive, that prices had far outrun demonstrated values and that a material readjustment was neces- sary. Early gains, which ran from 2 to nearly 8 points in many cases. were cut down, and in a few in- stances replaced by losses, but strong buying support was quickly provided and the market was headed upward under new leaders early in the afternoon. Stock prices resumed their upward market under the leadership of the motor shares. Chrysler opened with a block of 4,500 shares at 129, up 21-4 points and a high record, and Studebaker showed a gain of 1 8-8. The first sale of Bethlehem Steel | was a block of 10,000 shares at 671-4, up 1%. opened with a block of 10,000 shares at 29, up fractionally and a new high record. Call “money renewed at 7% per cent, as against 8 yesterlay, and then funds became available. Funds were avallable below that figure in the “outside market,” leading to expec- tations of a further shading of the official rate before the end of the week, another new low, reviving hopes of further gold imports. | Steels gave an impressive demon- i stration of strength on buying in- | | | fluenced by trade predictions of un- usually good last quarter business. General Motors fell back on the Ras- kob statement, but Chrysler con- points to a new high record at 130%. Packard also moved into new high ground at 98%. National Dairy the declaration of a stock dividend of 4 per cent. Victor Talking Ma- chine, Briggs, National Cash Regis- ter, Coty and Pierce Oil preferred all moved into new high ground. Early trading was in unusually heavy volume with the market de- veloping into a runaway affair. Blocks of 3,000 to 10,000 shares changed hands at frequent inter- vals, with long strings of transac- tions showing spreads of 1 to 3 points. in the first half hour of trading by Victor Talking Machine, Interna- tional Nickel, Barnsdall A. Briggs Manufacturing and National Dairy to nearly § points. U. 8. Steel common quickly ran up more than 3 points to 161 5-8, General Motors, A. M. Byers and Bethlehem Steel were among the many {issues to extend their open- ing gains to 2 points or more. There was nothing in the over- night movement although Wall street gp- parently felt relieved that rumors that Governor Roy Young of the 1y eriticise securities speculation in his address before the American Bankers' association failed to ma- terialize. Predictions in banking circles of lower call money before the end of the week also had a bullish effect on speculative senti- ment. Forelgn exchanges opened steady, with sterling cables hovering around the year's low level of $4.84 7-8. Relaxation of the recent strain gave the dull element a sturdy grip on the market which was illustrated by many advances of 3 to 7 points, and first hour transactions exceeding 1,000,000 shares, the largest volume in that period for a long time. The extent of the turnover in individual issues was shown by the transfer of one block of 22,800 shares of Pack- ard motors. Some of the leaders, particularly General Motors, was selling off from the best figures at midday, when the bulls were calling on their reserves among the inactive forward. The renewal rate for call loans was shaded from 8 to 7% per cent. THE MARKET AT 2:30 P. M. (Furnished by Putnam & Co.)
