FRAUDS
Perpetrate and
on SMALL
Investors
A large part of the
discredit in the public
mind attaching to
•‘Wall Street" if due
to frauds perpetrated
on the small investor
throughout the coun
try in the sale of
worthless securities by
means of alluring cir
culars and advertise
ments in the newspa
pers. To the success
of such swindling en
terprises a portion of
the press contributes.
Papers which hon
estly try to distin
guish between swind
ling advertisements and
others may not In
every instance suo
ceed in doing so; but
readiness to accept ad
vertisements which
are obviously traps
for the unwary is
evidence of a moral
delinquency which
should draw out the
severest public con
demnation.
So far as the press
In the large cities is
concerned the correc
tion of the evil lies, in
some measure, in the
hands of the reputable
bankers and brokers,
who, by refusing their
advertising patronage
to newspapers notori
ously guilty in this
spect, could compel
them to mend their
ways, and at the same
time prevent fraudu
lent schemes from de
riving an appearance
of merit by association
with reputable names.

tUCUTtOH 01 GENERM
THROWS CHINESE FACIIUKS
INTO BITTER TURMOII
Dr. Sun Yat Sen, Country’s Lib
erator, Demands Explanation
From President
WARFARE IS IMMINENT
Yuan Shi Kai’s Action Brings
Down Wrath On His Head
From Many Quarters
SHANGHAI, Aug. 19 —Before he
left for Pekin to demand an account
ing from President Yuan Shi Kai for
the shooting ot his friend Gen. Cheng
Tsen Chu aud other Republican army
officers, I>r. Suii Yat Sen left orders
here for au immediate mobilization
of the military forces in southern
China to be used against the president
If his explanations should prove uu
satisfactory.
The doctor's agents are rushing this
work today in their leader's absence
and inside of a week, slowly as things
generally move In China, indications
are that liUU.dOt) or 3lH),t>oo revolution
ary veterans will be under arms and
ready for au> duty Sun calls on them
for.
The best informed Chinese here say
today thert is small doubt of an eut ly
clash between the northern forces un
der President Yuan and the southern
under Dr. Sun. Rich Chinese irom
up-country are again rushing Into for
eign Shanghai with all their
porrable possessions for safety under
the guns of the international war fleet
in tlie city's vicinity. The foreign
consuls are on the alert to call in
their nationals from up-country at the
first news of fighting. Considerable
anti-foreign feeling exists aud the”
ere undoubtedly in danger
Dr. Sun s plan is to demand Pres
ident Yuan’* impeachment by the ad
visory council, which is made up al
most wholly -of anti-Yuan men and
will undoubtedly do as "Sun directs
unless Yuan kills or imprisons them.
Yuan is much alarmed. The gen
erals he had killed were invited by
him to come into Pekin trom up-coun
try to talk politics with him. Though
the> suspected he was trying to estab
lish a directorship they trusted to his
safe conduct for personal safety. Aft
er entertaining them he arrested them
and Gen. Cheng was shot and one
other was shot here and others sent
to Hankow to be executed. Yice-PreS
ident Li Yuan Hung Is in charge a:
Hankow and may not have carried
out orders.
Yuan probably thotight he could
convince China that they were plot
ting another revolution. Having fail
ed, he is trying to prove that the kill
ings were at the suggestion of Vice-
President Li. but Li repudiates re
sponsibility. The Chinese trust and
believe him
Yuan has long been strong with the
northern Chinese. The Manchug were*
overthrown by the southerners, who
chose Sun Yat Sen for president with
his capital at Nankin. Yuan, then
premier, refused to agree to the em
peror's abdication unless he was made
president Instead of Sen. The revolu
tionists distrusted him. Finally Sun
yielded rather than have war between
north and south. Yuan loudly pro- i
tested loyalty to the republic and j
friendship for Sun. Now Sun sayß
he is murdering every Republican
who stands In the way of his estab
lishment of a dictatorship.

MAY ABANDON SECOND
CHARGE AGAINST DARROW
LOS? ANGELES, Ual., Aug. 19
Despite the announcement of District
Attorney Fredericks that he will
prosecute Clarence S. Harrow, on the
charge of haviug bribed Juror Robert
Bam. tn ihe McNamara case, there Is
a strong impression that the case
will never come to trial.
When Judge Hutton's court conven
ed today, Fredericks said he was pre
pared to ask that the opening of the
trial be set for an early date. He
would not Indicate, however, when he
thought the date would be.
The trial of Harrow on the la>ck
tvovKi charge, which ended Saturduy
with an acquittal, was so long and
costly that the general belief Is that.
t:ie prosecutor will abandon the Bain
case.
