SCHENING T0 KILL DEBENTURE CLAUSE (Continued from First Page) the debenture clause will be elimi- nated because the conference com- mittee stands § to 2 againat the d benture feature, although the five senators are bound temporarily at least by the action of the senate in adopting the plan, The tarift llrlte" is working out equally “well from the administra- tion standpoint. The house ways and means committee already drawn a half dozen secret amendments to 'the pending bill. These make some of the chang by the farm bloc and the leaders think they will draw farm bloc sup- port to the bill. If they do, the tariff can be passed - within a week over democratic objections. While the big issues of the ses- sion are being decided in the house this time, the senate is tied up in an executive session over the old question of -whether presidential rominations should be considered in cret. The immediate question is the nomination of Irvin Lenroot, & former senator from Wisconsin, who has been named by President Hoover to be a member of the U. 8. court of customs appeals. The senate voted Iate yesterday 38 to 34 against con- sidering the -nomination in public, the 34 votes representing far less than the two-thirds majority neces- sary for an open executive session. Collective discussion was resumed by the creditor experts of the rep- arations conference late this after- noon after an hour's delay caused by the unexpected duration of prive ate discussions, The different national groups ex- amined Sir Josigh Stamp's report, embodying the ‘German conditions for acceptance of Owen D.

GUNPONER BLAST HILLS I, HURTS 2 Fire at Winchester Plant Fatal to Patrick Doherty New Haven, May 17 (P—Patrick Doherty of New Haven, who was in- jured in an explosion at the Win- chester plant today, died of his in- juries at New Haven hospital this afternoon. Doherty was {n a critical condition when taken to the hoapi- of [ (a1 suffering from scvere face and body burns. Fred Hoeger and John Coogan were in the plant emergency hospi- tal with less serious injuries. All of the injured were employed in the powder mixing department of the plant. The small wooden struc- ture in which they were working was badly damaged. Plant officials said the explosions followed fire of unknown origin. An investigation was ordered. The explosion was caused by a small fire in one of the mixing houses known as C-52. ‘The ‘origin of the blaze is a mys- tery to Winchester officials. Only a amall amount, ol powder was in the building but was sufficient to partly demelhh the structure. "'The three injbrea men were just entering the building when the ex- plosion occurred. They were thrown to the ground with considerable force and all three were burned by the blast. Emergency treatment was given the men at the Winches- ter hospital, before they were taken to the New Haven and Grace hos- pitals. The force of the explosion shat. tered windows in thé main plant of the Winchester company. The fac- tory fire department was able to stop the fire that followed the explo- sion before the arrival of the New Haven fire department. All three injured men have been eraployes of the Winchester company for long periods of time. Hoeger was em- ployed as foreman of the wrecked building, and has been working at the plant since 1902. Doherty came to the plant in 1907 and Coogan in 1915. An investigation has been started by officials of the city and Winches- ter company to 'ascertain the cause of the fire.

INTEREST IN B[lNllfn MARKET SLIGHT Yolume of Transactions in Most _ Securities Is Small New York, , May 17 P—Interest in the bond market was at a low ebb in today's trading. High grade se- curities, especially the rails, were .being picked up here and there through the list. But turnovers were small and there was no indica- tion that any large accumulation was under way in the face of con- tinued uneasiness over credit and money. Although the convertibles, as us- ual, attracted virtually all of th> attention, the volume of transactions in most of the stock privilege securi- ties was small. American Telephone 4%s were sold rather freely dip- ping to their low at, 130 5-8 on a decline in the shares. Missouri- Pacific 5%s, which were leading tho market early in the wegk, picked. up. more than half a point as the sharei advanced slightly, but the number of bonds sold was relatively small. In the rail groups, favorites were New York Central 4%s, which rose nearly two points on fair buying, while Delaware & Hudson refunding 4s responded to small inquiry by jumping 1 3-4. Among the apecu- lative rails, Seaboard Air Line re- funding 4s sold off by a large frac- tion.

The squirrel had sur- reptiotiously pilfered something of the birds private stock and had start- ed down the tree when spotted by her highness. In a scant second she darted at the nut cracker as he scampered down the tfee and struck at him several times in the descent. The squirred dashed madly across the lawn the blackbird continuing the battle and on even terms. The battle became so hot that the squir- rel was foroed to stop to fight back. Quicker than the eye could catch the move the blackbird retrieved some of the stolen zoods and was on the wing before Mr. 8quirrel could sink his teeth. .

Faverable developments in the credit situation provided the background for a gen- eral advance in prices in today's stock market. Buying orders were distributed over a fairly broad list. A sprinkling of high priced special- ties soared € to nearly 15 points, while & leng line of industrials and public utilities moved up 1 to § points. A score or more issues mov- ed into new high ground for the year. Retention of the 5 per cent redis- ceunt rate by the New York Federal Reserve Bank, an increase in the re- serve ratio of 78.9 per cent, or 7.2 per cent above the same date last year when brokers’ loans were about a billion ‘ dollars below the present total; an increase of only $14,000,000 in brokera’ loans last week and a drop from § to € per cent in call money all helped te revive bullish scntiment which had been badly shaken by the flurry in call money rates earlier in the week. Trading was only moderately hcavy in volume, tending to confirm reports that Arthur W. Cutten and other large operators temporarily had withdrawn from active partici- pation in the market. High carry- ing charges on marginal accounts have had a restraining effect on speculative operations for the ad-. vance, Several of the high priced special- ties were buoyant. Burroughs Add- ing Machine ran up nearly 13 points to 314 3-4, General Electric 11 3-¢ to 292 3-4. Otls Elevator 11 1-2 to 349 1-2.
