The Berlin and Paris bourses were lower on profit-taking, wnile the London market continued firm after the holiday Saturday. Negotiations were still under way between FTench and Americans on the Hoover debt moratorium proposal and the uncertainty in that situation had some effect on the European markets .

GAMBLERS ARE WARNED “They’ll Ply Trade in County Jail,” Says Cleveland Sheriff. By United Press CLEVELAND, June 29.—There will be no gambling in Cleveland before, during or after the Schmel-ing-Stribling fight, Sheriff John L. Sulzmann said today as he ordered his men to “clean up” gaming houses in the city and suburbs. “I will not permit professional gamblers to make a ‘cleaning’ here this week,” the sheriff said. “They will ply their trade in my hotel (the new county jail) if they start preying on those w’ho come here for the fight.” EXPAND~MONEY SERVICE Western Union and American Express to Co-operate in New Plan. As part of a national service program, Western Union offices here Wednesday will begin co-operation with the American Express Company in dispatching money orders through mediums other than teleraph, according to A. A. Brown, local superintendent. The service is separate from telegraphic money orders, and has been on trial in the east since December. Filling Station Man Robbed Two gunmen today robbed W. B. Reaser, Sinclair filling station attendant at 5400 East Washington street, of $55, he informed police.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s ‘‘Believe It or Not” which appeared in Saturday’s Times: Professor B. G. Burt —Professor Burt, a champion of endurance piano playing, played for 206 hours 47 minutes at Jamestown, N. Y., without having both hands off the keys at the same time. His endurance work is of a scientific nature, and during his engagements, both in America and Europe, he often has played 5,000 musical compositions from memory, without a pause, Professor Burt’s home is 7 West St. Clair street, Warren, Pa. Max Flack Played on Two Teams the Same Day —On Decoration day, 1922, the St. Louis Cardinals played morning and afternoon games in Chicago with the Chicago Cubs. Flack played right field for the Cubs and Heathcote played the same position for the Cardinals in the morning game. At noon Manager Rickey of the Cardinals conferred with President Veeck of the Cubs, and the two players were traded. In the afternoon game Flack showed up in right field for the Cardinals and Heathcote in the same position for the Cubs, Heathcote thus sharing honors with Flack for playing on two teams on the same day.

CORN FUTURES SWING UPWARD ON HEAT NEWS Wheat Prices Up Sharply on Bullish Farm Board Report. BY HAROLD E. RAINVTLLE United Fret* Staff Cerreieondent CHICAGO, June 29.—Profit-tak-ing erased goodly portions of tl* advance on the Board of Trade today after the week and more of torrid weather had sent coarse grains soaring to the highest points since March, for oats, and December for corn. Oats were 64 to cents above the season's low set two weeks ago, with com 8% to 10% cents over its low point. Oats rose 24 to 2% cents and corn 2 to 24 cents early in the broadest trade in some months. Expect Definite Stand Wheat went to the highest since the middle of May on the strength in the coarse grains and the prospects of a more definite stand by the farm board. At the close wheat was 4 cent to 14 cents higher, corn was unchanged to % cents up and oet* were 14 cents to 14 cents higher. Provisions were firm. Liverpool reversed itself and rallied sharply after the North Ameri can markets opened, closing 4 cen to % cent higher. Members of th farm board have not altered thel position on their expressed policj but at the instigation of the Presi dent are likely to make a mor definite stand by Wednesday. The cash market was inactive. Receipt.* were 136 cars. Corn Trade Heavy The continued hot and dry weather for the last six days has caused a material change in sentiment, and corn shot up more than 2 cents at the start. Trade was exceptionally heavy and the large receipts over the week-end were disregarded. Cash prices were 1 to 14 cents higher. Receipts were 546 cars. Oats bounded upward in almost sensational fashion with the deferred months reaching new high* for the season. Trade was fully as active as in the other pit' Cash prices were 14 cents to i cents higher. Receipts were 2. cars. Chicago Grain Table —June 29 WHEAT— PrevOpen. High. Close. Low. Close.
