ADMINISTRATION IS HOPEFUL OF DEPRESSION END Developments in Congress Give Rise to New Optimism. Uu Rcripp*-Howard Xeictpapcr Alliance WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. More hope was expressed by administration officials today in the prospects for business recovery than at any Vine in recent months. Their more hopeful attitude arose from the following developments: Congressional approval of the 52,000,000.000 reconstruction corporation to provide new business credit. Passage of the $125,000,000 federal farm loan bank bill. Prospects of early passage of the $750,000,000 depositors’ relief bill to i liberate funds tied up in closed banks. Dawes’ Selection Cheerful Anticipated congressional approval of the $150,000,000 home aid loan bill. Appointment of retiring Ambassador Charles G. Dawes as president of the reconstruction corporation, on the theory that Dawes will help to create confidence in the new bureau. Friendly spirit, in which wage difficulties between railroad executives and labor are being conducted. Apparent inclination of the stock market, to force itself upward. Attempt of the federal reserve board to speed business recovery by reducing rediscount rates. Reed Optimistic Decision of the national convention of state insurance commissioners to accept the average price of stocks for the last five quarterly periods for asset valuation purposes , instead of the Dec. 31 market prices, ns representing a closer approximation of the actual value of securities. Decision of the United States comptroller of the currency to permit banks to list the estimated real valuation of securities instead of the depressed market value. “The most encouraging thing of the whole business,” according to Senator Reed (Rep., Pa.), an administration leader, “is the determination of both parties to balance the budget and to keep federal appropriations within income. The moment that is done and the public is relieved of the apprehension of continuing new issues of government bonds to pay deficits, we will see a marked improvement in the bond market which will relax the strain on banks and insurance companies.”

OLD DOCUMENTS YIELD STORY OF BEAUTY'SOEATH Daughter of Aaron Burr Is Believed to H§ve Been Pirates’ Victim. By United Prtsa FREEPORT, Tex., Jan. 21. Death while the chained prisoner of buccaneers was the fate of Theodosia Alston, beautiful daughter of Aaron Burr, according to a legend which, it was learned today, has been found in time-yellowed archives. Mrs. Alston, young wife of Governor Joseph Alston of South Carolina, is one of history’s most famous missing persons. The most generally accepted story of her end has been that she perished when a packet, the Patriot, bound from Charleston to New York, perished in a storm off Cape Hatteras. Mrs. I. A. Humphries. Freeport historian, believes the beauty died on the beach near the mouth of the San Bernard river, in 1814. This would support a tale that Mrs. Alston and other passengers of the Patriot were seized by pirates. The beautiful Theodosia disappeared in December, 1813, nine years after her father, then vicepresident of the United States, fought and fatally wounded Alexander Hamilton, secretary of the treasury. The ship Patriot never reached New York. •One Deerhead, chief of the Car-

In the early fall of 1814, according to Deerhead’s account, a pirate ship was beached in a storm near the mouth of the San Bernard. Deerhead heard a faint cry. He broke into a cabin and found a white woman chained to the wall. Deerhead administered to her. but I the woman died after giving him a gold locket. Years later, old settlers testify, the Indian known as Deerhead proudly exhibited such a locket. It contained miniatures of a handsome man and child, and on one side was engraved the name ‘ Theodosia ” Why Wake Up Nights?
