Trading Broadens and List
Strengthens; Liberty 3 l-2s
Continue Upward Prog
ress to High Mark.
New Tork. Aug. 30. Trading In stocks
today broadened on a slight Increase of
activity. The expansion was accompanied
ty a general strengthening of tha list, al
though shippings, rails and a few special-
lies were again most conspicuous.
l.toerty jijs continued their upward
progress to the new high quotation of
lui.H. many lots changing hands at
near that figure. Other liberty issues were
active, but without spprecisble change.
A significant development of 'he day
was the adoption of a resolutton by th
clearing house committee expressing lis
entire sympathy with the "credit conserva
tion" recommendations recently advanced
by the federal reserve board. Indefinite
continuance of tight money Is expected as
a result of this action.
Canadian Paclflo waa once more the
outstanding feature of the Investment !
suea, augmenting Ita recent advance with
an additional gross gain of four points.
Other trans-continentals were firm.
Next to United States Steel, which gslned
a trifle, Mercantile Marine preferred was
most active.
American Telephone registered another
substantial recovery, Ita further rise based
on tha regular dividend, and Western
Union also made up part of Its loss.
Domestic bonds were Irregular and In
ternationals featureless. Total sales, par
value, (7,150.000. Old registered 4s lost '

40 GREEKS SENT
FROM THE CITY AS .
RESULT OF BRAWL
Men Told to Leave Town and
They Hastily Gather Their ,
Effects an! Take
Departure.
Early Tuesday morning forty Gree.k
laborers were driven out of Council
Bluffs by unidentified men who
seemed to be acting in accord with a
general plan. The Greeks were nearly
all railroad workers, who had in
curred the dislike of the men who
assumed the authority to order them
out of town. The roundup begin
shortly after midnight and was con
tinued until the men marked for 'de
portation" were headed toward ElSt
Omaha.
No violence was used and-,, no
panicky or spectacular scenes oc
curred. The territory involved -1fj-cluded
only the the section in 'the
northeastern part of the city. Tlte
alleged "undesirables" were quietly
but firmly told that they would find
healthier localities outside of Council
Bluffs. It was alleged that there were
no threats of violence and that most
of the "warnings" were given in a
friendly manner.
Despite this a wave of excitement
spread through the Greek settlement,
mostly bunk cars, and there was hur
ried gathering up of personal effects
ana a stui more nurried departure.
The men circulating the warnings
worked quietly and in the darkns$j
not one of them disclose! his identity.
None of the Greeks thus driven out
returned to their work yesterday, and
it was said that they would not do
so, but would seek employment else
where. Provocation for the action is "al
leged to be connected with the- shoot
ing of Gus Folus, early Sunday morn
ing, and the story told by the oartv
of Greeks who were alleged to have
been held up and robbed by . four
masked men. There was some doubt
cast upon the story at the time and it
was said yesterday that a strong con
viction has arisen that the shooting
occurred during a dispute among the
men themselves and that the holdup
story was concocted to protect the
man who fired the shot.,
I ohce investigation, however, failed
to disclose any foundation for the
theory. 1'olus is still in the .hospital
um is recovering. - ,
Deputy United States Marshil
Shoemaker rounded up 22 Greeks
Aiontiay night and expected to get 40
more Tuesday. Every Greek in the
first bunch had Liberty bonds
either $50 or $100 denomination. Al
together they held $1,150 worth of'
bonds. "
