Wm. H. Mairs Co. 68 8ACKETT BROOKLYN Telephone Henry 028 01 STOP COAL GOUGE Suggests Fair-Price Commissions in All Cities to Expose Profiteering. Albany, N.

Oct. 24 Governor Smith has asked Mayors of cltiw throughout the State to co-operate with him in appointing fair price coal commissions to focus public attention upon corporations, firms or individuals dealing in coal who may attempt to exact an abnormal profit during the present situation. Survey of the Slate has indicated, the Governor said, that there Is less fear of a coal shortage than of the increase In price necessitated by the terms of the coal strike settlement. Pending determination of who rightly shall bear this increase and In the absence a fuel administrator, the Governor explained, it was deemed advisable to create unofficial agencies to check profiteering by bringing to bear the pressure of public opinion, ami, since State power Is lacking to regulale coal prices, al least to provide Information upon which the State might base its case should it be necessary to take extraordinary measures to preserve the public health. The Governor suggested that in cities where it is found necessary to combat exorbitant coal prices, the Mayor nppolnt one commissioner to represent the citizens, another to represent the coal merchants and ro quest him to name a third commis sioner, the three to form a fair price coal commission with purely local Jurisdiction.

Tho commissions would serve without recompense other than the gratitude of the cities beenfited. BABY GIRL STOLEN, POSSE CONVINCED Ozark Mountain Homes Now Searched for 3-Year-Old. Waldron, Oct. 24 The sus picion that Pearl Turner, 3-year-old girl for whom 800 men have been searching for three days, was kidnaped and spirited away from her mountain home, is growing among members of the posse, according to leaders of the searching pTty who returned here after another day of futile search for the child. A squad of men, tho posse leaders said, was sent, out to search every house within a radius of 12 miles of the Turner home.

The searchers have abandoned the theory that tho child fell a victim to wolves. The kidnapping theory was strengthened by the discovery of small footprints. Members of the posse followed this trail 100 yards, hi, t. the tracks disappeared. Men who had gone over the ground sev eral times during the past two days.

declared the footprints were not seen before today.

EDWARD5HM0R8 FELLOW OFFICERS Charles Jerome Edwards, president of tho Brooklyn Club, tendered a dinner to his fellow officers and the members of the board of directors at the clubhouse on Tuesday evening. Mr. Edwards was reelected president of the club for tho seventh term during his absence in Egypt last spring.

This presentation was in recognition of Surrogate Wlngntc's services In the manage, nient of the. club's affairs during the absence of the president, nnd also significant or the Judicial duties of Judge Wingute, who, as surro gate, is protector of the widows' and orphans' welfare.

Washington, Oct.

24 Besides the difficulties which It will encounter with the militant progressives within Its party ranks, the regular Republican organization in the House Of Representatives will find Itself somewhat handicapped at the coming session by reason of a scarcity of members experienced In floor combat and the more Intimate detai's of parliamentary procedure. Deaths and voluntary or enforced retirement have removed from the majority side of the House almost the entire group of men who in recent sessions have stood as the bulwark against the onslaughts of the minority. As a result, whoever succeeds to the floor leadership vacated by Frank W. Mondcl of Wyoming will find himself in the position of having to meet almost single-handedly the frequent efforts of the Democrats to tflrow the proverbial mon-kiy-wremh Into the House machinery. Supporting the majority leader will be no to unravel parliamentary snarls, no Towner to expound learnedly upon the rules, no Walsh to be ready with musty precedents against this proposal or thai.

Neither will there hi- a Stafford, eagerly watchful of every move "across Hie aisle," nor a Campbell lo boldly cross swords with the opposition. There will, he a different situation on the Democratic side. Every one of the old group of leaders will be back and they will be augmented bv Cordell Hull, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, who has been returned to the House from Tennessee. There will be the re- reef ul Gerrett of Tennessee, the floor leader; Oldftdd of Arkansas, Garner of Texas, who is at his best in a rough and tumble debate- Crisp of Georgia, ho is recog nized as one of the ablest parliamentarians to sit In the House in re cent years: Byrnes of South Carolin.i Byrns of Tennessee and the ever uleni Blanton of Texas.

Peking, Oct. 24 (By the Associated Press) Troops routed several hun dred bandits who attempted today to capture a passenger train on the Peking-Hankow Railway as it was passing through the northern part of Honan Province, northbound.

The train backed out of danger under fire, The locomotive was struck bv bul lets, hut no passengers were Injured Traffic has been suspended tem porarily. The raid took place at Hushang- cheng, south of Chengchow. It was reminiscent of the l.lncheng outrage of last spring, when numerous for- igncts were kidnaped from a train. San Francisco, Oct. 24 Banditry is a business in China and the kid naping of foreigners is an outstand ing feature of such business, ivccord- ng to Maj.

R. W. linger. U. S.

who was held captive bv bandits In the Shantung Province for 37 days last spring and who has arrived here on the Army transport Grant. All of the lower classes in Shan tung take part in bandit raids occa sionally," Major Plnger said. "Kid naping of foreigners nnd holding tnem for ransom is the only way that some of the coolies have of obtaining money. "Of the 2.S00 who captured our party only a few hundred were professional robbers. The others were simply half wild ex-farmers, who had been given to banditry because of the destruction of their farms." GIRL BANDITS GIVEN LONGER SENTENCES Edna Hobbs and Anna Majew-sky Face Judge Second Time Edna Hobbs and Anna Majewsky.

the two girl bandits who were con victed of being the brains of a daring noldup and were sentenced on Mon day, were recalled yesterday before County Judge Alonzo G. Mclaughlin and re-sentenced. The recall was occasioned by a clerical error whlcn gave Hobbs a flat sentence of two years In Auburn prison and Anna Majewsky commitment to Bedford Reformatory. When the girls were recalled late yesterday afternoon the re-sentence sent Edna Hobbs to prison for a term of from two to five years nnd Anna -Majewsky to one year in the City Prison. Edna Hobbs looked disconsolate and on the edge of a breakdown as she faced Judge McLaughlin for the second time.

She was pale and nervous in the extreme. As the Majewsky girl's sentence was changed to one year in the City Prison, she said to Judge McLaughlin, "Thank you, mister." The girls were convicted of being Ihe accomplices of Joseph Puntelano and Philip Do Falco In the holdup and robbery of Dominick Notitr-necola in the latter's apartment at 1050 Flatbush ave. on the night of July 26. Edna Hobbs is 19 years old and lives at 1125 Flatbush avo. Anna Majewsky gives her age as 19 and her address as 148 Woodbine although she admitted living with the Hobbs girl for the past year.

TRACED Frauds Bared by Which Hundreds Illegally Slipped In.

Ottawa. Oct. 24 Evidence of fraud in tho preparation of affidavits offering employment by Canadian farmers to Italian immigrants arriving in New York were reported today by J. A. Robb, Canadian Minister of Immigration, in announcing Ihe first results of the Joint investigation by the United States' and Canada of a conspiracy whereby hundreds of immigrants have evaded tlv law by gaining admittance under false pretenses and escaping into the United States on their way to Canada.

Roth Canadian farmers and' the immigrants, in many rases, were absolved of blame by Mr. Robb, who asserted that they were the victims of unscrupulous persons who desired to bring the workers into the country. Individual farmers were found, he said, who had been paid $10 and more apiece for signing from 10 to 50 affidavits in advance. Three hundred Italian Immigrants are being held at Hoffman Island, while Canadian and American immi gration agents at Kills Island arc taking measures to prevent immigrants from circumventing quota difficulties. One hundred have al- reudy been deported for attempting to enter this country by fraudulent means.

"Immigrants are in the habit of startlna; for Canada from Ihe Grand Central station and dropping off at the 125th st. station," Commissioner Curran said. "Some of them tell us that, they nre going to help with tho Canadian harvest, but they are obvi ously too late for that. Others say that they are going to certain Canadian factories, but when we look up tne addresses we nnd that they hav been closed for years. Some of them go as far as Utica and Syracuse, but the majority of them go to I25tn st.

and then wander back to the Battery." Asked if ho thought hundreds of immigrants were entering Canndu. staying for a short time, and then coming back Into the United States. deirauning this country out of a largo sum in taxes. Commissioner curran was Inclined to think this situation exists. HOME RULE FAVORED BY CITIZENS UNION The Only Constitutional Amend ment It Doesn't Oppose.

The Citizens Union today told the world that It was opposed to all of the proposed Slate Constitutional amendments save the one providing lor home rule. The Citizens Union "ecommend.i approval of the bond issue for State Institutions, but disapproval of the referendum on fire men's and i-uliremon's salaries, and the soldier bonus. In speaking of the proposed amendment to extend the benefits of the Absentee Voter's Law to the inmates of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Home, tho Union suys that, although the amendment Is "relatively unimportant," there seems to he "no good reason for its adoption." 1 lie policemen a and llremen sal ary Increase, is opposed because of (lie added expense to the cltv and becuiise It would act as "the entering weoge lor a policy or putting un to the voters salary Increases and other expenditures for which the Legislature does not wish lo luko the responsibility." Opposition to Ihe wnlerpower development amendment Is voiced by the citizens Union because It "would endanger the Integrity of the Ktnto Forest l'reaorvo." The tax limit amendment Is disapproved because It "goes much farther than is needed lo secure the desired reviflon of Ihe present method of taxing public utilities and would maintain an artificial basis for debt and tux limitations."

EVANS CONFIRMS KU-KLUX POLICY Dallas, Texas, Oct. 24 The Ku Klux Klan's attitude against negroes, Jeire and Catholics" was explained here today by Dr. H. AV. Evans, imperial wizard, in a speech announced as outlining "fully for the first time the policies of the Ku-Klux Klan, re garding restriction of immigration and its program in this respect." Dr.

Evans recommendod that the United States moke its own selection of the class of immigrants wanted. we already have at least three powerful and numerous elements hat do now and forever will defv very fundamental reoulrement of assimilation," said Evans. First there is the negro 10,500.000. They nave not, they cannot attain the Anglo-Saxon level. Another absolutely unhlendable element Is the Jew.

To him, patriotism, as the Anglo-Saxon feels it, is impossible. No nation can long endure that permits highen temporal allegiance than to its own government. The Mci-'iephici of Roman and Greek Catholicism violate that principle." MOTH IIOI.KM. RNS OR TEARS HKWOVKV AM.
