THE EKE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1920. y COOLEY DENIES TELLING YOUTHS HE FIXED JUDGE Police Court Attorney Declares Jocular Remark Was Mis construedFitzgerald Not to Investigate Affair. Julius Coolev, police court at torney, yesterday denied charges made Tuesday th at he had told two youthful speeders that he had "fixed it with the judge." Me said the two boys. Robert Blake and Thomas Sutphen, 16-year-old high school juniors, asked him to act as their attorney when they were arrested Monday night. Deposited Bond, He Says. Cooley declared he deposited $10 each for their appearance in court the next morning and that when they -went to him before court opened Tuesday morning orre of the lads told him his father had al ready arranged with another man to defend them. They offered to pav Cooley for bis trouble however, he said. After the trial, when Judge Fitz gerald had fined Blake $5 and dis charged Sutphen, Cooley said lie jokingly remarked to one of the boys that his father evidently had not fixed things very well. No Probe Expected. ''That must have been the re mark which was misunderstood," Cooley stated. "I did not tell the boys I 'had fixed it with the judge.'" Cooley spoke in the highest terms of Police Judge Fitzgerald, who, he said, had assured him there was to be no probe of the alleged remark Cooley was charged with having made in the court room yesterday. -For those who read or do close work at night a combination eye shade and electric lamp to be worn on thj forehead has been patented, the lamp beinpf supplied with'ctirrent from a socket through cord.

NEW YOkK TIMES Chicago Trlbune-Omiilia Be Leased Wire. New York, July 14. Speculative interest iii stocks slowed down to day, both in volume of business and in the number of issues handled, as compared with the prereding ses sions. In fact, except for a quick ening of the trading pace in the first hour when certain groups of indus trial shares were under pressure, and again near the close under short covering transactions, the market acted much as it did during the mo notonous days late in June. Professional traders practically dominated business and results were more marked on the selling than the buying side, although the irregular price list at the close told little of the real influences at work. Auto mobile and rubber issues were shot at by bears, to the accompaniment of rumors about possible price re ductions in lines produced by the motor and allied concerns which sounded as though manufactured for the occasion. In cuse of motor vehicles, at least, it is difficult to vlsualiie a reduction of selling prices at a time when a sub stantial demand is colliding with a grow ing senreliy of materials. Call money lent all day at 8 per cent. The street appeared to have no difficulty In finding all the accommodation of this sort it needed, but time funds were as meager for new loans as at any time this sum mer. Foreign Kxcluinge Active. While the action of stocks was diffi dent, the action of foreign exchanges was one of activity and receding quotations, sterling declined 40. the closing check rata of $3.88 heiiiK 7u below the maximum quotation lust week. 1 It would lie possible to refer to the attitude of tienuan delegates at the Spi !i one explanation for increased specu lative pressure against sterling and some of the .continental rates, for the deadlock over coal deliveries suggested today the possibility of armed coercion of the tier man government, the outlook being made mere suggestive by the calling of lion, l'oeh to the conference. Quite possibly London turned attention to rumors, heard here on Tuesday, that tlrrat llrltatn was considering the as sumption of part of France's portion of the Annln-Trench loan payment, causing somo selling of sterling; but what was evidently the most practical factor In the decline wns the steadily increasing sup ply of grain and coiton hills coming Irto the market at New York. Bunkers Report Activity. Whether or not better labor facilities at the Atlantic port has been of influ ence In the last week, the fact remain that bankers report n growth of outgo ing shipments of raw materials and food stuffs. Considerable amounts of wheat, cotton and meat are going to Germany, fihMiccd by Dutch houses. In consider ing the German coal problem at the Spa conference, one needs recall cabled reports of a fortnight ago to the effect that the Germans were selling fuel to Holland Interests to be paid for In food materials and other products. The steel trade reviews this week tell of persistent congestion at the mills, one estimate making the amount of finished products In storage. 2,000,000 tons. The steel and Iron makers are crying for more cars, without getting as many as they need because of the priority given to transportation of coal. And the scarcitv of fuel and Iron at steel works Is caus ing a highly irregular price front. Includ ing this week an advance of $5 a ton lu wire quotations by certain sellers.

Liquidation was on in coin ami oats a Rood part of the day and prices declined to a new low mark on the present downturn on all deliveries except December corn. Shorts covered at the start, making a slightly higher opening, but at the low point corn snowed 4'4oc and oats 25i3jc under the early high. Evening up by the pit element made a fair rally toward the last and the close was at net losses of lJ;4c on corn, i 3-jgc on oats, 45c on rye and barley lc. The Armour house was a free seller of corn early and brought. on the break and was instrumental ir. starting prices downward after the opening. There was heavy sell ing by houses with eastern connec tions at times, while support was liiritcd and mainly against the bids. Crop and weather reports on corn v.'ere excellent, and with cooler weather northwest, black rust in spring wheat attracted little atten tion. Sentiment Hearihli. Sentiment Kenerally was very bearish.

July led the break, beinn under pressure from strong commission houses with eastern ennneetions. the reported cancellation of 500.000 to 1.000, 000 hushels cosh oats by France the past few days being a factor. .N'ye.jenlis was a persistent buyer ! of the deferred deliveries. i lenuuins in ine sample market aroppea 2e with No. 2 white around 8c over the July, and 6.000 bushela No. 3 white- Bold in ctore c.t 99VjC.
