TO CENSURE BROKERS
Committee Learns Finn Be
hind Hock Island Flurry. .
• In some of the highest official Stock Ex
change circles it ami said yesterday that
the expulsion of the linn which whs known
to 'have ' caused the flurry in Rock Island
common stock Monday morning was im
probable, and although the house might be
suspended, nothing more than a reprimand
from the Stock Exchange governors was
looked for.
The findings of the special committee
appointed .to look into the transactions
were made known yesterday, and although
no definite information was given out it
was learned that one of the soundest and
most prominent brokerage offices of this
city and Chicago was responsible for the
thirty point rise and fall in the JJock Island
stock. It Is said that before the opening of
business Monday morning this house had
received an order to buy 30,000 or more
shares of Rock Island common.
In the execution of the order in the
benefit of the buyer the house % parcelled
out the order among a number of other
brokers. It gave fifteen brokers not con
nected with its own house orders to J>qy
2.000 shares apiece at the market. The in
vestigating committee finds that the house
had no improper intent in distributing this
business and was following a custom. It
happened that on Monday there were no
selling orders of Rock Island, so that the
different brokers began bidding against
oach other for the stock and forced the
price up.
I'nder ihe greneral welfare clause the
Stock Exchange governors contend that
they have jurisdiction over the case and
that the criticised house was at fault for
not having one of its own represent ativ.es
on the floor to prevent possible upbidding
of the Ftoek. The house has until January
VZ to make an explanation to the commit
tee. The name of the person who gave tne
original order to buy, it is asserted, is an
outsider and his name will not be divulged.
A number of timbers of the exchange are
in lavor of publicity in the case, however,
and there was some talk yesterday of ask
ing that the name of the buyer be given
out.
RAILROADS LOSE.
Appellate Division l T pholds
Semi-nwnthh/ Pay Imxc.
Albany, r>ee. XL — The constitutionality of
the law providing for the semi-monthly
payment of railroad employs is upheld in
n decision handed down to-day by the Ap
pellate Division of the Supreme Court, 3d
Department.
The validity of the law was attacked by
the six principal steam railroads of the
prate In actions instituted by them to re
strain the Commissioner of Labor from
enforcing its provisions. Two of these ac
tions, on? brought by the New York Cen
tral and the other by the Erie, were car
ried up as test cases. The decision handed
down to-day affirms the derision of Justice
Betts, upholding the constitutionality of
the law and dismissing the complaints of
the railroads. Justices Sewali and Kellogs
dissented. No opinion was written. It is
expected that the cape will be carried to
the Court of Appeals.

BAILROADS GIVE MORE ORDERS.
Increased Number of Cars and Loco
motives Bought in 1909.
Statistics published by 'The Railway and
Engineering Review," of Chicago, in its
issue of December 29, show a decided in
crease in the number of cars and locomo
tives ordered by railroads In 1909. compared
with the preceding year. It says that 3.23:?
locomotives, 175.424 freight cars and 3.PSO
passenger cars were ordered in the year.
This is near the total of locomotives
ordered in 1907, which was 3.452, but much
less than in 1906, 5,642, and 1906. 6,265. The
addition to traction power is not, however,
clearly indicated by these figures, as the
size and capacity of locomotives continue
to increase.
According to approximate statistics there
■were only 1.182 locomotives, 1,319 passenger
cars and fiL'.MW freight cars ordered in 19f'S.
Ju the latter half of 1909 thf-re was decided
activity in ordering railway equipment.

DIVORCE WITHOUT MARRIAGE.
Man Held at Ellis Island Here in Def
erence to Hebrew Code.
Passaic, N". J., Dec. 31 (Special"!.— One of
the first oases of its kind that has come to
the attention of the immigration officials
at Ellis Island was divulged to-day, when
Harry Loeb, a lawyer of this city, was en
gaged by friends of Mrs. Bube Olland, of
No. 154 Passatc street, to have her brother
in-law. Chiel M. Olland, nineteen years old,
v ho is about to be deported, allowed to en
ter the country.
Mrs. Olland's husband died several years
ago without leaving offspring. According
to the Hebrew code, if a husband dies
leaving no children, his widow rannot
marry again without securing a divorce
from her brother-in-law, providing her hus
band left an unmarried brother. Mrs. Ol
land, wishing to be released from her ties,
had her brother-in-law brought to this
country. When he arrived he had only $25,
but Mrs. Olland gave him $50 more to di
vorce, her. Assuming that this money was
a loan, the immigration officials decided to
send him hack to Russia.
Mr. Loeb was retained by Mrs. Olland's
friends, and has filed a notice of appeal,
staying the deportation. He also sent to
Washington an affidavit from a New York
manufacturer that he would give the boy
employment, at $12 a «eek. together with a
$1,000 bond by Jacob Solomon, of this city,
that Ollarjd would not become a public
charge. Tn the mean time Olland refuses
to perrorm the release ceremony unless lie
is permitted to land.

Happy New Year!
N Start it right by making «a resolution— and carrying it
through— that you'll start a Deposit Account and do your
1910 shopping at Macy's— where prices 'are lowest and where
more goods are sold for cash than anywhere else in the coun
try. . IDEPOSITI _
■ (DEPOSIT
ACCOUNT
An Important Announcement
Economy is the road to wealth, and
Macy's Depositors' Account System is the
• shortest route.
Because :
(1) We Sell Goods at Lo~)»er Prices
Than Any C her House.
(2) Oar Depositors' Account System
Enables Those Who Cbjec'. to Pay
ing for Goods on Delivery to Take
advantage of Oar Lola> Prices.
START A DEPOSIT ACCOUNT.
KNOW HOW MUCH YOU SPEND
; AND FOR WHAT YOU SPEND IT.
Simply deposit here a sum of money— great or small, as you
elect—for shopping purposes. Make purchases in the usual way and
have them "CHARGED" TO YOUR DEPOSIT ACCOUNT In
terest at the rate of 4 per cent., compounded every three months, will
be allowed on your daily balance. Statements of the account will be
mailed you monthly. Such accounts cannot be checked against, as
we do no .banking business. Only deposits intended for purchasing
purposes are invited.
There are other great advantages that we
do not mention. Ask any of our thousands ;
"^^^ of customers who have a deposit account
with us how the innovation pleases them.
It Is Not
What You
Make, But
What You
Save That
Makes You
