RESPONSIBILITY GRAVE i DUBLIN, Jan. 13.—The lord chief j justice of Ireland, himself a Roman , Catholic, has uttered a word of ad- i vice to the clergymen of his chnrch at j the Munster winter assizes at Cork. Two young men named Barry and : Hunt pleaded guilty to having posted a j violent, threatening notice, and It van 1 stated that one of them had received a good character from his parish priest. Tho lord chief justice said that It was all very well to give a character to a naan when he was In the meshes of the criminal'law, but why did not the priests warn their parishioners before the event? Declares priestsRESPONSIBILITY' GRAVE. “A grave responsibility attaches at present to the priests,” he said, "and it is the duty of every clergyman to warn, his people against a course of conduct that is leading young men to crime. Some of them, no doubt, do a great deal, but If the clergymen in Glare and Kerry especially warned young men against that downward course of action a great deal of crime would be it verted.” Justice Kenny, when charging a Count|y Dublin jury in a case in which two men were charged in connection with a shooting outrage in the west of Ireland, seized the occasion to speak of the responsibilities of jurors and of the state of terror that exists in some parts of the country. fears country COMING TO BAD END. “What is the country coming to,” he said, "when n thing like this can happen on n bright moonlight nigh' u way and in tile vicinity of a police barcnJit ? You enn imagine in some degree the awful life which an unfortunate Juror lias to endure when Intimidated, as people are now being intimidated all tjver the country. , “What is a man to do? Are we to blame him very much If he does not come forward and give evidence? Are we to blame him when he is the victim of *n outrage if he does not at once go to the police and tell them, and so make himself a marked man In the community? There is every excuse for people In that position.” Six men accused of having shot at and murdered two policemen nt Knocklong railway station, County Limerick, on May 18 last, were merely remanded at Limerick.

The predominating price for good hogs was sls early and later buyers were offered al] they wanted at $14.90. In comparison with other markets, the local prices are now apparently abnormally high and, although there is a sentiment that hogs around sls are “worth the money” to the packer, there probably always will be disposition to maintain prices in their normal relation to other markets. Pigs were higher with the best sort at $14.50. and sows were higher with sales up to $13.65, but rarely higher than $13.25. CATTLE. There were only 1.100 cattle arrived for the Tuesday market, which is regarded as small foY that day in the week, and this probably was a considerable help to sellers in holding prices steady. There was some indifference among buyers and they were alert for an opportunity to discount prices of the day before, "in two days it nas appeared that tbe steers and cows have sold slightly lower than they did at the close of last week, but the loss is not more than 25c, and the heifers and bulls have not weakened to a perceptible extent. There was a steady market for veal calves, with the best at s2l, and there was also a continuation of steady prices for feeding cattle, but continued disappointment in the demand from country buyers. SHEEP. Anew high level for lamb prices was established In the Tuesday market and was said to be the result of the continued small supplies. There were only 4-00 fresh arrivals and they Included lambs good enough to command $19.25. Sheep up to $lO were steady.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1.920.

On Commission Row Fancy Emperor grapes in thirty pound kegs at $7.50 were demanding attention from the trade today. Potatoes held steady yesterday at $5 per hundredweight. This is the first, day in a week that advance has not been registered. Cabbage at 6%e a pound is in brisk demand, dealers say. This is half a cent higher than last week, but sales have not slackened aiiy. Good quality stock is hard to get, dealers report. Cranberries are moving slowly, dealers report. > They assign the sugar problem again as tbe cause. The price of cranberries at from 9%c to 10%e wholesale has no bearing on the demand, they say. This is the lowest quotation on cranberries in several years. TODAY’S PRICES.

GET RICH RAGE HITS ENGLAND Fortunes Rapidly Change on Stock Exchange., LONDON, Jan. 13. —The new craze to get rich quick by means of speculation is responsible for an endless torrent of money pouring into the London Stock Exchange. This extraordinary city boom, already referred to in the Dally Exchange, has two phases. First, there ts the abnormal number of new companies, and of existing concerns with new capital issues for peacetime development. They are appealing for millions .of dollars, and obtaining it easily. Then there is the rush by all classes of the public for any form of speculative investment. Tbe stock exchange hardly remembers a period when so much money was readily forthcoming. Members handle millions each day. CASH TRANSACTIONS ILL THE GO NOW. Ail dealings on the exchange are at present full cash transactions. Business in margins is ruled out of order. ’Phis means that vast sums of money pass between brokers at a settlement. Stock brokers arc obtaining more clients than tunny of them know how to handle. People who before the war never dreamed of a city gamble are now indulging in it cheerily. They include working men and humble commercial employes, who desire ’by share dealing to extend their earnings to meet the cost of living. Women take a prominent part. There Is evidence of these facts on every hand. One meets people at diuner tables and in clubs whose main topic of conversation is the price if oils. Iu fact, oil shares are talked of everywhere. IMPOSSIBLE TO DO ALL BUSINESS AT OPENING. The stock exchange finds it impossible to do all its necessary business during the official hours of opening—from 10:45 a. m. to 3 p. in. Anew street market has sprung up in Throgmorton street during tbe past two weeks. The street, after the closing of the house, until nearly 5 o'clock, is a turmoil of activity. A jostling crowd fills tt/e center of the thoroughfare. There Is a clamor of shouting as the late prices are made and taken. It is a reproduction on a smaller scale of the scenes duriug the day on the floor of the exchange. Six thousand members and their authorized clerks, who wear the blue and whitp button of admittance, are entitled to enter the exchange aud it is quite common to Anil 3,000 of them there at once. All markets are feverishy busy, with the oil center first in point of rush ■ind din. and the industrials and rubbers two good seconds. It needs a man of physical strength and jentherllke lungs to win a place when things are hustling. The average stockbroker Is working hard. He Is making money fast anil spending quickly. SCHOOL KIDDIE’S MOTTO. PITTSBURG, Jan. 13.—’Don’t buy candy; your stomnch doesn't pay interest." This was offered as a motto In the War Savings Stamp slogan contest by one of the city’s school children.

COAL TAR CAN DO VAT’S WORK Cream Tartar and Fruit Acids Taken From Benzol. NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—Announcement has been made that, by a newly discovered method, coal tar can be made to yield tartaric acid and other important substances which will help to lower the costs of living and lessen tbe blow of prohibition. The details were explained in a joint paper read before the New York section of the American Chemical society at tba process, John M. Weiss and C. It. Down#, respectively, the manager and the chlJn* chemist of a well known firm of cbeml-J cal manufacturers of this city. J The basis of the process is a method* from Benzol, one of tbe derivatives dark and viscid coal tar. Maleic acid has been separated from the juices of certain plants and fruits, but at so high a cost that it could not be put on the market and was considered merely as a laboratory curiosity. By the 'WeissDowns process, benzol is mixed with air and the vapor is passed over a catalyzer, a material which alters the speed of chemical reactions without being in itself affected. On account of their mysterious power to join other substance* in chemical wedlock, catalyzers are known as “chemical parsons.” With maelic acid as a base, it is possible to prepare other valuable aelds. Brontosaurus Slain by Congo Hunter LONDON, Jan. 13.—Meet the bouto-v saurus. Some day they may have him on show in Bronx or Lincoln parks, but as yet there’s only one of him, so far as anybody knows. A Belgian prospector in the deepest reaches of Congo saw a brontosaurus and shot at him and brought back this deI scription : The brontosaurus is on the rhinoceros order, with large scales reaching far down its body, it has a very thEk kan-garoo-like tail, a horn on its snout anil a hump on its back. Tbe Smithsonian Institution had heard of the- beast from previous explorers, and at one time seDt an expedition In search of it, but several of ffs members were killed in a railway wreck. t AMUSEMENTS.
