LEATHER TRADE BETTERMENT IN MARKET TREND High-Grade Glazed Kid Reported Sold Ahead for Several Months. PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 30.—Improvement marks the Philadelphia leather market, particularly iu the glazed lines. Glazed kid men report high-grade skins are sold ahead for several months and that the market la stabilized in the tiretop grades. Tha aituation in goat skins is not so bright. Latest advices from India show prices advancing rapidly and dealers here are refusing to take orders. According to one large house, conditions indicate a decided shortage of goat skins before long. INQUIRIES FOR MEDIUM GRADE. A demand for medium-grade glazed kid is looked for within the next fortnight, according to the bulk of inquiries received. Plumper weight skins are being taken for men's shoes. Orders so far show shoe factories are patting out highgrade products. The approaching demand for medium grade skins, dealers 'ay. means the factories turning to cheaper shoes. Sole leather tanners report improvement, with buying confined almost exclusively to better grades. Developments in the cut sole end of the industry lead to the belief that lower grades of sole leather will Boon be in demand. It Is noted in the trade that there has been mor- distribution of cut sole leather \*y. ly than at any time during the year. Findings were reported to be rather quiet, with no great improvement expected until after Labor day. Shoe factories are taking fair deliveries of union sole. Tannery run cow backs are quoted St 40 cents and steers at 47 cents. There is also a fair demand for shoulders at 30 cents, bellies. 16 to 17 cents, and heads, 10 to 12 cents. TANNERS REPORT SALE ACTIVITY. Oak soles in findings and factory leather are picking up. Clear to scoured finder bends are quoted at from 75 to 85 cents. In oak offal there is a promising call for prime bellies at Cl cents. One carlot order for extra light double shoulders was reported to have been sold at 40 cents. Another tanner reports sale of light shoulders at 37 cents. Belting butts are inactive and priced nominally at 65 cents for No. 1 prime tonnages. Kid skins are priced from 75 cents top grade to 55 cents and downward for lesser grades.—Copyright, 19C1 by Public Ledger Company. CITY JUDGE GETS BLAME FOR MANY TRAFFIC MISHAPS (Continued From Page One.)

a line that would jar them loose.” remarked Mr. Taggart. “Then we could break this up. Look what happened when the city court started giving SSO fines to people who pa-sed standing street cars. The newspapers make headlines out of it ever#' time a stiff fine is imposed and as a result we don't have very many people driving around stationary street cars. You hear the brakes screech every time the traction car stops. Folks don't forget SSO fines in a minute. “Do you know what that fellow is up agaiust down there? Well, Pritchard is up against your friends. my friends, all our friends. They come to us and ask us to get somebody off and ve say. 'Nothing doing.' What do they dc? They go right down there and use our n-'tnes. urging the judge to let their friends off light. Somebody thus hat killed off two thirds of the cases the police have trought in. We'd straighten out all thts if they'd Just stick a few of them down there in that court. THINKS TRAFFIC MAN HAS PLAI'SIBLE EXCISE. “You. Mr. Noblett, have complaints from your members that traffic men get rough. What else can they do? Why the only thing they can do is to get rough. If they do arrest anybody, it doesn't do any good. They go down to court and then the violator gets off. Why. say. if I was up against the proposition those traffic men are. I'd blow np too. They know the fellow who runs past their block can t even be jarred with a little fine.” “Yes,” interposed Mr. MeWblrter. “and when thpy do go down to court likely as not they have to wait around an hour after the regular hour before court convenes." “There's no set of traffic regulations In the world that will work unless they are enforced.” eon tinned Mr. Taggart. Mr. Noblett requested that the hoard set him right upon the right-of-way regulations now in force In Indianapolis. H“ said he understood the new State traffic law providing that 'be man on the right has the right-of-way is In effect. excepting that boulevards take precedence. Mr. Taggart said Mr. Noblett was in error: that the city traffic ordinance, passed more than a year ago, is in effect and that it provides that all north and south streets have the right-of-way. excepting Washington street. East New York street from the Big Four Railroad tracks to Emerson avenue, all boulevards tnd the four diagonal avenues, and excepting at corners where there are silent policemen or mushroom lights, in which esse traffic to the right has preference. GOING TO H IVE RI LE PRINTED. "Because there are a large number of people who do not understand this. I am going to have circulars bearing this rule widely distributed.” Mr. Taggart acid. He said the situation is confusing here because the State law is different from the city ordinance. This led to a general discussion of the traffic ordinance. “We'll have better and a safer city when we have flat parking all over town, a thirty-minute parking limit and the Bute rule of the man on the right ha* tne right-of-way.” said Mr. Taggart. “We'vp never caught up with our traffic. No other city has. New York City hasn't. Chicago hasn’t. And they're both spending millions of dollars on traffic improvements.” B:if“ty isles for pedestrians crossing Meridian street at intersections all the way from Washington to Pratt streets *re to be painted on the pavpment soon. Mr. Taggart said. These will be similar to the isles in use on Michigan boulevard in Chicago, affording a safe stopping place for persons caught in the traffic stream while attempting to cross the street. SAYS COOPERATION WILL RE BIG HELP. Mr. Taggart recalled that anew traffic ordnance has lain dormant in the city council for six or seven months. “This ordinance has some improve tnenta over the old.” he said. “But give Us what we've got harked up by the man liown there.” waving toward the city t-oort building. The res gnatlon of Traffirman Worthington A. Clary was accepted. Tanrnian Floyd. David J. Curran. Charncey W. Snider and Otis L Tlyner were appointed patrolmen and Fleming Lindsay and Yollie Reiss were appoirted substitute firemen. Fireman John Allen if Tumper Com pnny No. 16 was rec< mmended for a pension because of physical disability.

DEATH RECALLS ANECDOTES OF ‘REAL* POLITICS A. P. Twine ham, Princeton, H as Figure in Hemenway ‘Deal The recent death of A. P. Twineham. Princeton, recalls a most interesting chap ter in Republican politics in “the Pocket,” as the First Congressional district *is popularly called. The delegates to choose -a candidate for Congress on the Republican ticket assembled at Evansville in the spring of 1804.4 Representatives were present from Giffson, Pike, Posey, Spencer, Vanderburgh and Warrick Counties. There were four candidates: Mr. Twineham, Princeton; Frank B. Posey, Petersburg, Pike County; Hamilton A. Mattison, Evansville, and James A. Hemen way, Boonville, Warrick County. The convention, was held in the old Apollo Garden at Evansville and more than fifty ballots were takeu without making a nomination. Gibson, Pike and Warrick voted steadily for their favorite sons. The Vanderburgh delegation was divided between Mattison and Hemen wav, the four delegates from the “Black Seventh” of Evansville voting for the latter. These insurgents were headed by Eldet Cooper, a belligerent, wealthy Irishman, who was a power in local politics, l’asey and Spencer voted first for one and then another candidate, but with the others voting persistently for their favorites and with Vanderburgh irreconcilably diviled, a majority was impossible. The convention finally adjourned without making a selection, to meet again in two weeks in Posey County, neutral ground. Meanwhile something had happened. As a consequence, at the adjourned meeting held at Mt. Vernon, J. A. Hemenway was nominated on the first ballot, practically without any opposition. He was elected that fall, and his career since then is well known. Judge William F. Parrott, the Democratic congressman from that district died soon after the election and a special election was held to fill the vacancy and Frank B. Posey das nominated on the Republican ticket, and elected, and served in Congress a few weeks. After the new' Congress, elected in 181*4. convened, the practical results of the can '■uses held in the interim between the Evansville and Mr. Vernon sessions be came manifest. Mr. Twineham was ap pointed postmaster at Princeton. Mr Hamilton was nominated and elected judge of the Vanderburgh Circuit Court and Mr. Posey besides being a temporary representative, was appointed collector of the port at Evansville, which city he made his home thereafter. James D. Parvin, who had just com pleted his second successful term as auditor of Vanderburgh County, was ap pointed postmaster at Evansville. He was a capable official, universally popular and his appointment gave general satisfaction. It# however, provoked a storm of protest from Congressman Hemenway's erstwhile lieutenant. Elder Cooper, who declared emphatically he had supported a non resident of his own county only through the assurance that he. Cooper, would be appointed postmaster at Evansville. When Mr. Hemenway became a candidate again in 1896, his former most stal ward supporter became his stanchest opponent, and Cooper s Celtic slogan. "To hill wit’ Himtnwhay!” became a by-word among the regular Republicans. He shortly afterwards was placated politically by having his son-in-law ap pointed to an Important deputyship in a State office at Indianapolis. All the principals In this little political drama have passed away except Mr. Hemenway, who was chief beneficiary of the “Pocket" , warfare.

MAN MURDERED AT FAIRGROUND (fontllined From Page One.) the police and while the negro was tele phoning he started to investigate the mystery. He stumbled over Kariden’s body. A number of officers from the police department arrived and Holcomb was arrested and charged with the murder. Later two other negroes, Harrison Goatley of Madison and Roseoe Brook of Chicago were arrested. Holcomb came from Mancie. Holcomb, talking freely to Thief of Police Irwin in the county jail, denied any part In the crime. Further Investigation at the fairground disclosed two blood-stained suitcases. One contained a quantity of moonshine liquor and the other clothing and dice. The three negroes will be held pending further investigation, which will proceed on the theory that a craps game or cant game may have resulted in a fatal argument. Private Concern Buys Famous Nitro Town CHARLESTON, W. Y'a., Ang. SO—The Y’iscose Company of America, with a large plant at Chester. Pa., has purchased from the Charleston Industrial Corporation area E of the former Government powder town of Nitro, comprising fifty-two acres. The War Department joined in giving the compsi.v a clear title to the property which lies in the center of the powder city. Three large pulp mills are included in the purchase. Officers of the company, of which Dr. F. C. Ernst is president, announced that pulp would be manufactured at the Nltrr mills from cotton linters for the manu factnre of artifleal silk In the Chester plant.

CONDITION OF TRADE BETTER IN CALIFORNIA Wells Fargo Bank Says That Business Outlook Is Brighter. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30.—The WellFargo Bank, in its monthly review, reports mprovement. With an abundant crop yield, farmers have been marketing their products rapidly and at better prices than were expected. Barley has been sold freely for export. At no time in the history of the industry in California has there been so little of the season’s crop left in the hands of the producers at this period of the year. The docks at Port Costa ha'-e been taxed to capacity to take care of barley for export and distribution. The pack of canned fruits and vegetables is reported smaller this year than last. Some varieties, such hs peaches, ar esaid to be almost sold out. The outlook for the dried fruit crop has improved. as last year's holdover is now being moved freely. There is a good demand for export. The rice crop is about 80 per cent of normal, compared with a nine-year average of 92 per cent. This year's production is estimated at 175,000 tons compared with 215.000 tons in 1920. St GAR BEET CROP f5 PER .VENT NORMAL. The sugar bet crop is S3 per cent of r.ormal. compared with 91 per cent a year ago. Estimates indicate a yield of about 1,080.000 tons. A preliminary estimate places the wheat crop at 8.060.000 bushels, an average of sixten bushels an acre. Last year the production was 9,100.000 bushels. Condition of cotton has Improved. If is now estimated to he 83 per cent of normal. This would give a production of 73.000 bales. Most of the fruit crops r. re likely to show a decrease compared with last year. Hie condition of apples indicates a production of about 3.356,000 bushels. This would be nearly 700,000 bushels less than In 1920. High temperatures early last month injured the apricot crop. The final estimnle of production is 43 per cent of normal, compared with a ten year average of 72. This year's production will be about 105,000 tons, a decrease of 10,000 tons. ag eof sixteen bushels an acre. Last year year. The total production is estimated at .220.000 tons. WINDS DAMAGE FEAR CROP. Heavy winds caused damage to the pear crop in the Sacramento valley. The condition for tha State is about 58 pe • cent of normal, compared with 76 p. r cent last year Production will be about 65.000 tons, the lowest in eight years. Plums sud prunes show a slight increase In condition. it is not yet possltle to predict the production of oranges. At present the condition is slightly better than last Year, sod is estimated to be 86 per cent of normal, compared with a ten-year average of 77. 1-onions are reported to be 84 per cent of normal. This Is three points better than the ten-year- average. Almonds are In about the same condition as last year. Walnuts are below the average. • The Wells-Fargo Bank reports a brighter outlook for general . business. Price readjustment -* manifesting good effects. Business now can be handled on a smaller profit margin. Retailers are buying to meet immediate requirements. Volume of business in wholesale dry goods Is reported to be about the tame ns a year ago. Cash returns. however, are lower on account of the drop In prices,—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Cos.

EARNINGS OF SUPERIOR DROP Improvement Expected for Big Corporation. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 30.—The Lake Superior Corporation and subsidiary companies (not including the Algoma Central and Hudson Bay Railway Company and the Trans-St. Mary's Traction Company) report, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1021, net earnings of $1,541,203, decrease $2;180,859. The company brought forward $2,502,237 surplus, and the final surplus, after deductions, Including Interest, dividends and rentals of subsidiary companies, general depreciation, Federal taxes and readjustment of inventories downward, was $404,813. Total Income of the corporation alone was $392,814, decrease $162,574. The corporation showed a deficit, after bond interest and general expenses, ol $:'6.049, Increase $205,872. Wilfred H. Cunningham, president. In his report said. “Operation of the steel plant for the fiscal year was disappointing In results—neit earnings showing a marked decline, due wholly to conditions that could not be surmounted and were not foreseen. A heavy tonnage In rails was booked during tne latter art of 1919 for delivery throughout the calendar year 1920. When iQese orders were booked the rate of exchange between the United States and Canada was 4 per cent, and it increased to as high as 19 per cent during the time raw materials were being Imported to com plete these orders.” This condition, together with strikes and car shortage, compelling the purchase of coal In the open market, materially increased the estimated cost of production in the first half of the fiscal year, Mr. Cunningham said. He also said cancellations and holding up of contracts forced a partial suspension of plants. Orders on hand at the dose of the fiscal year insured .full operation of the rati mill until the end o-f August and of the furnaces and the merchant mill until the end of September. Negotiations are now pending. Mr. Cunningham reported, for satlsfac tory tonnage for winter operation, and the directors believe the company is on the eve of Improving conditions in tne iron and steel trade and that the present fiscal year may be expected to show •m-oumgtng improvement.

To the Theatregoers of Sndianapolis I wish to call your attention to the fact that I am sending to the ENGLISH THEATER, for the INDIANA STATE FAIR WEEK, beginning next Monday evening, September 5, HARRY BERESFORD in the quaint New England Comedy of Cape Cod life, entitled “SHAVINGS," which is based on JOSEPH C. LINCOLN'S NOVEL. ‘SHAVINGS.” The dramatization was made by Pauline Phelps and Marion Short. The stagingwas done by John McKee. —— Contrary to a custom that has been followed in the past several years by most theatrical managers with a popular NEW YORK SUCCESS to their credit, I have steadfastly refused to organize and send out any DUPLICATE COMPANIES in “SHAVINGS.” I realize that I may be sacrificing much in taking this stand, but I feel positive that the playgoers of the limited number of cities to which I am sending "SHAVINGS” directly after a triumphant run of four capacity months at POWERS’ THEATER IN CHICAGO will appreciate the excellence of the ORIGINAL COMPANY which I have kept intact ever since "SHAVINGS” was produced at the Knickerbocker Theatre, New York. Many of you have, no doubt, witnessed a performance of "SHAVINGS" during its long Broadway run or during its phenomenal engagements In Boston or Philadelphia, will be gratified to know that HARRY’ BERESFORD. James Bradbury, Edith Gresham, William Robyns, Ben Lodge. Willa Fredric, little Marie Bianchi, Walter Davis. Fred M.
