THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13. 1917.
SECURITY SHRINKAGE
PROCESS CONTINUES
Shares of All Description, Add
3 to 7 Points to Decline
During Week; Seasoned
Industrials Better.
ew xotk, ucl t. operations in
the securities market this week were
curtailed to an extent by the observ'
ance of a double holiday, but the
process of lfuidation continued with
little inter-uption.
Shares of all descriptions, particu
larly investment shares, added 3 to
7 points to their shrinkage of the last
month. Utility issues were hardest
hit, suspension of the dividend on Peo
ple's Gas being preceded -and fol
lowed by extreme losses of 10 to 20
points.
Declines in rails, amany of which
touched lowest quotations of the year
and not a ew for many years, excited
widespread comment, inasmuch as the
movement included shares of high in
trinsic value. Steady offerings of
these stocks occajioned much con
jecture respecting future dividends.
Employes' Demands Complicate Rails,
Numerous additional statements of
railroad earnings compiled by the In
terstate Commerce commission ac
companied the revival of agitation for
increased freight rates. The demand
of the railway employes east ot Chi
caeo and north of Potomac for more
pay add,ed to the complicated condi-
lions aireaay existing m mc ihiib
portation field.
On the whole seasoned industrials
fared better than mos,t other shares,
althoueh United States Steel came
within easy approach of its low quo
tation for the year and affiliated is
sues were even weaker.
Time and call money loans were
decidedly lower, but funds were not
available for stock market purposes.
Rates to some of the neutral Euro
pean countries hardened on the more
restricted embargo, but remittances
elsewhere showed no material altera
tion. Brazil May Put German,
Vessels at Allies' Service
Paris, Oct. 12. Maurice Long,
minister of provisions, was asked in
the Chamber of Deputies- yesterday
whether he believed the sequestration
of German shipping in Brazil could
be raised. The minister replied that
he not only hoped so but be believed
that he could assure the house that
this tonnage was at the disposal of
the allies for use in carrying food.
Brazil severed diplomatic relations
with Germany on April 11, 1917, and
seized forty-six German merchant
ships aggregating 240,779 tons, laid
up in Brazilian harbors. On Sep
tember 5 the Brazilian minister of
marine announced that his govern
ment would not lease the German
ships to the entente allies.
Four More Suspects Are
Indicted in Ship Bomb Case
New York, Oct 12. Indictments
charging a conspiracy to "plant" in
cendiary bombs aboard ships carrying
munitions of war from this port to
the entente allies in 1915 were re
turned by a federal grand jury here
today against Eugene Reister, Joseph
Zeffert, Walter Uhde and Bonford
Boniface Three of the men were taken
into custody last night by the police
"bomb squad" and the fourth today.
In default of bail they were sent to
jail

Cinderella, Cupid, and a tiny Rus

dancers between the ages of 6 and 11,
will appear on the second floor of the
Brandeis stores, this morning at
10, then at 11 o'clock, and in the after
noon at 3 o'clock. Mrs. E. John Bran
deis, a talented dancer and a student
of Vestoff and other celebated dancing
masters, has been training the little
terpsichoreans almost since her arrival
in Omaha as a bride. Her sister, Miss
Aileen Frank, of San Francisco, who
has been visiting Mrs. Brandeis for
several weeks, assisted the little
Omaha woman in getting the ballet
ready for the public performance. Miss
Frank helped design the costumes of
the children also.

benefit and had trained the little
dancers especially for this purpose. So
many Red 'Cross affairs have been
given, however, that it was deemed
wisest by local authorities not to make
any more demafids for funds in the
name of the Red Cross.
"The children were so disappointed.
They had looked forward to their 'de

performance rh the Brandeis stores,"
said Mrs. Brandeis.
Besides the flance in honor of Cin

children will appear in several dif
