Bn United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The Wall Street Journal's financial review today says: Rallying tendencies which developed- on short-covering in Friday’s session were not sustained and prices in the market leaders sank to new lows on the movement in the two-hour trading at the week-end. Business news was generally good, but traders operating on the short side emphasized unfavorable points such as the falling off in bank clearings last month and the discouragement in the South of the cotton situation. Professionals concentrated heavy pressure on U. S. Steel, which broke below the levels of resistance established on the selling wave early in the week. Other pivotal issues like General Electric and American Can also made new lows, and General Motors was freely offered throughout the abbreviated trading period. Sharp breaks took place in industrial specialties like Coca-Cola, General Railway Signal and Postum cereal. Union Pacific, Atchison and other investment rails also felt the wave of large offerings, creating a heavy tone in the whole market. New York Liberty Bonds —Oct. 9 Clnae.

(By Thomson A McKinnon) NKW YORK. Oct. o.—The Journal of Commerce, eommentinir on conditions in the refined suifar market, state* this morning that capacity operations for all of October arc insured without any new business Tins suggests the maintenance, at least, of approximately the current price level.

Bn United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.—Two million cotton growers in the United States face an economic crisis bordering on bankruptcy, because of the bumper cotton crop and attendant low prices, Federal cotton experts told the United Press today. With a surplus of about 5,009,000 bales of short staple cotton from the 1025 harvest, 16,627,000 bales will be produced this year, most of it of only fair grade. Federal intermediate credit banks have already advanced farmers $37.000,000 for cotton in warehouses, in an attempt to remove the surplus of this year from the market while prices are low. Federal Aid has been promised the growers by A. C. Williams, Federal Farm Loan commissioner, and Jardine. Government experts said the only real solution of the cotton surplus problem lay with the farmers themselves. Each year they have been increasing cotton acreage until the supply is greater than demarJ during favorable years. Efforts will be made next planting season to have cotton growers reduce the 47,207,000 acres left for harvest this season by at least 23 per cent, it was stated.

The telegram: “Will you join '% the call for a spool'll session of ~ ? Senate to order an effective investigation. Answer English Hotel. “Thomas H. Adams.” Adams saU the appeal to the Senators was made after it was decided that it would be futile to ask Governor Jackson to issue a call for a special session. Jackson is understood to hold the view that with the Legislature convening in January a special session is not necessary. Jackson Silent Fatigued with the arduous duties of his office. Governor Jackson was “too tired” today to discuss with The Times his decision to appoint a special committee to interview Stephenson at State Prison and ferret out the charges of political corruption beinV hurled by Adams. Jackson refused to budge from his bed this morning when informed by his wife that the Times desired verification of a story, printed In a morning paper, that he would appoint an investigation committee soon. “He doesn't care to talk to you,” Mrs. Jackson told The Times. The Governor had complained Friday that this same morning paper had “misquoted” him when it carried a story that he was going to appoint an investigating committee. Jackson denied saying he would appoint such a body when he was asked for a verification of the previous story. Today, however. Mrs. Jackson said it would be all right with her husband if The Times “picked up” what the morning paper had said. Stirred by Roosevelt Jackson promised an investigation Thursday when young Theodore Roosevelt stood on a platform at La Grange and told Indiana Republicans to come clean on the Stephenson fiasco’. Jackson's idea, according to the morning paper, is to select a gVoup of men “who will command the confidence of the people.” To them, the Governor is quoted as saying, will be left the matter of deciding “whether it should make public its findings.’’ This is generally construed as meaning that the committee will go through the actions of interrogating the former Klan czar and then announce there is “nothing to it at all.’ Governor Jackson has told the morning paper to say that he Is very much wroth with the refusal of Adams to entrust his evidence to either Prosecutor William H. Remy or Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom. Adams refused to act when Jackson suggested such a procedure, fearing it was an attempt to “pry loose” the basis of the editor’s charges. Other State officials, as well as Jackson, betray a strong desire to know in advance what Adams is going to spring from his surprise box. The remainder of Jackson's plan, as promulgated in the mornirig paper, calls for the sending several court reporters to Stephenson’s cell at the prison and taking of a word-for-word record (4 1m says.
Gets Grandchild After Trip From Pacific Coast

A triii more• than half-way across the American continent, from the Pacific coast to Indiana, with throe children, means nothing to Mrs. Vangie O. Moon, 39, of Bellingham. Wash., for it was necessary* for her to come all that way to get her baby grandson, Gunnar J. Moon. Today she is speeding west to her little home in Washington, where she manages a rooming house and plans to raise the grandson. Mrs. Moon was granted custody of the child by Judge Janies A. Colline Friday, following habeas corpus proceednigs. Mrs. Moon's daughter, who was Dorothea Moon before her marriage, came to Indianapolis frbm Bellingham last April with the baby to visit her father, William J. Moon.
The transcripts, if sufficiently innocuous, will be turned over to Prosecutor Rcmy and Attorney General Gilliom. the same persons Adams previously refused to surrender his own information. Gilliom sent the following opinion to Warden Daly: “Answering your inquiry whether a prisoner serving time in the Indiana State Prison may under authority he taken out of prison for any purpose in connection with litigation in civil cases. I advise that there is no such authority. The only power that could permit it is in the Legislature of the State and It has never done so, and obviously never should do so. “If the testimony of a prisoner is necessary in civil litigation. his deposition may he taken at the prison under procedure provided by statute. "The only authority courts have to order the presence of prisoners in connection with litigation is that conferred by the Legislature in respect of criminal cases and grand jury investigation as provided in section 2237 2289. Burn's, 1926. Because of the constitutional rights of the confrontation, defendants in criminal cases have the right to the personal presence of necessary prisoner witnesses. and their testimony cannot be taken deposition as in civil cases. “The question is not one of discretion of the courts or prison authorities. it is one of the law. Until the Legislature authorizes the taking of prisoners out of prisons for purposes connected with civil letiga tion it would constitute a breach of legal duty on your part to permit a prisoner to he thus taken. Accordingly you will follow the law in this respect as it always has been followed.” Whether Prosecutor William H. Retny will be able to question Stephenson, if he Is brought here, will depend on prison officials In charge of Stephenson, Judge 'Miller declared this morning. The judge issued the following statement: “I desire to correct a statement which has appeared in an Indianapolis newspaper, which quoted Mr. Homy, the prosecuting attorney, as saying that I, as judge of the Superior Court of Marion County, Room 3, had granted him authority to interview D. C. Stephenson when he is brought to Indianapolis. “No authority has been given by me to Mr. Remy or any one else. When D. C. Stephenson is brought to Indianapolis he will be in the custody of authorities of Indiana State Prison, and. outside of the time when he actually appears in court to testify, they will have complete control of all hi3 movements.” “Friday afternoon. Mr. Remy asked me if I objected to his obtaining an interview with Stephenson. * “I told him that I did not. “Having in mind the fact that the prison authorities will control the prisoner's movements and that any arrangement to interview him must be made with such authorities. I suggested to Mr. Remy that the proper way to examine Stephenson would be to subpoena him before the Marion County grand jury and there make such inquiry as he desires. "I further told Mr. Remy that the matter pending before me was a proceeding to determine the exact location of certain property of Stephenson, which it is claimed he had placed in the possession of third parties. and that any inquiry conducted in my court will be solely to determine* the whereabouts of this property, and will be limited to that inquiry alone. "This information was given to Herbert Wilson, the receiver of the Hoosier Tailors, Inc., within the last three days.” Councilman Walter R. Dorsett, president of the committee named by city council to investigate Adams’ charges, announced this morning that he will accede to Adams’ demands that he be given a chance to present his charges to council at a public session. Adams has refused to meet with the special council corrynittee. Dorsett said he had an appointment with Adams this morning and would tell him of council’s decision to listen to the charges..

After the child's mother died he became a ward of the juvenile court and finally was placed in the home of Mrs. Thomas Kail of Beech Grove.
