CHICAGO, Feb. 11.—Another serious setback was suffered in the grain market today when May wheat in the closing minutes of trade took a tumble of 10 cents. All other grains fell off similarly, oats breaking about 3 cents and rye 8 cents. News of the outside market was bullish, word being received that Russia had bought 1,000,000 barrels of flour, a record peace time order. Some thought, however, the break was due to the holiday tomorrow, the public dumping their wheat in fear of the risk of carrying their holdings. FAKE REPORT OF COLLIN ON RADIO Military Court Heard Takes on Sinistro Aspect Today "BEARS" PAY Record for Fullerton Court First Two Weeks in Jan. Between Jan. 1 and Jan. 16 Judge William French had seven Hi School pupils in his court at Fullerton. This was one of several new revelations, in connection with the County-wide liquor raid, made last night by William Starbuck of Fullerton, one of the leaders in the raid, at the mass meeting held in the evangelistic tent at Claudina and Wilhelmina-its. Starbuck said Judge French had told him that on Jan. 18. The next moment the Judge evidently feared he had said too much and qualified himself by adding that the seven weren't all from Fullerton. Wait a minute, Starbuck had replied. If the seven weren't all from Fullerton the Fullerton students in the other towns would make up the difference. We may have some of their students, but they have some of ours. Starbuck asserted that but for the injunction of Stanley Chapman, the aftermath of the raid would have been without obstacle. The clerk of the Hi School Board had told him, he said, that the raiders weren't using the right method; they should have communicated with the authorities. Two years before that he had done so, and the result was that the proprietor of one of the places to be raided came to the city offices to see about it. When the raid project had been first broached the plan had been to confine it to Fullerton. But the bootleggers' lines were found to extend all over the county. Superintendent Montgomery of the Anti-Saloon League had told Starbuck and others that no difficulty had ever been found about the cities paying their share of the cost of a raid. It will be two or three months before the raid cases come to trial in U.S. court, Starbuck said. Rev. George A. Francis of Orange in his opening prayer asked that the speaker of the evening, Rev. Bruce Brown of Los Angeles, formerly of Fullerton, be given "great liberty of thought" and "great clearness of expression." He asked further that the country be made a place where righteousness might prosper. Rev. Leon L. Myers, who appeared on the platform later in the evening, delivered the closing prayer and announced again the play tonight, "The Man of Gallee," to be given at the tent by the Wright Players. No admission fee will be required. NEW YORK, Feb. 11. — Wall Street kept only one eye on the ticker tapes today. The other was glued on Wm. C. Durant, motor manufacturer and stock operator, to see what he would do to swell still further the $2,500,000 in profits she street credits him with having made this week. Durant returned to the financial district from his California winter vacation in a bullish frame of mind, according to friends. They estimated his paper profits in U.S. Castiron Pipe at more than $10,000,000. Everywhere around Broad and Wall Streets the story was about today that there was a "corner" in Castiron Pipe, although it has been denied repeatedly by stock exchange officials. Castiron Pipe has been behaving like an acrobat. Its gain yesterday was 21 1-2 points following a 19 12 point jump Monday and a climb of 15 3-4 last week. Durant is reputed to own 60,000 of the 120,000 shares outstanding. Castiron Pipe began climbing from 150. When trading closed last night it stood at 235 12. In 1923, it sold as low as $20 a share. In the same year it reached $69.50. Castiron Pipe jumped to 245 for a gain of nine and a half points in the first period of trading today. The stock sold up to 250 an hour and a quarter after the market opened. Last year its low point was 64 and its high 169 7-8. Durant's friends said he became interested in Castiron Pipe in 1923. The stock has earned heavily its 1923 earnings were estimated at $21.92 a share in 1924 at $44.67 and now they are put at about $60. BEARS” PAY W.G.

No admission fee will be required. A collection was taken to defray expenses. Pastor Brown told how, when the saloons flourished in Anaheim and this was the drinking center of the county, the cry had gone up that the city would be ruined if the saloons were closed. The liquor business was at the base of the city's prosperity, it was averred. Yet, he added, Anaheim's marvellous growth really had dated from the time when the saloons had been closed. He was convinced, he said, that the new progress would date from thoro law enforcement here. The speaker said in substance among other things: "It is hard for selfishness to understand the motives of unselfishness. It was hard for Europe to understand American magnanimity toward the Philippines and Cuba. We expended millions in the former without hope of return and we set Cuba back upon her feet repeatedly." "It is hard for some people to understand the Klan. They think it is designed to give a few people places of power or put money into their pockets. That isn't so. The Klan isn't fighting to gain political office or for gold." "After the war many of the Germans declared it a blessing that the Krain had gone and that America had come into the conflict." "The Klan isn't here to hurt anybody." "America has been falling into dangerous ways. Attempts have been made to alter our fundamental institutions." "The Pilgrims came to America to enjoy religious liberty." The Bible was part of their very lives (Continued on Page Two) ROME—Former Premier Golitti, 23 years old, today signed another 25-year lease on his apartment here. Castiron Pipe jumped to 245 for a gain of nine and a half points in the first period of trading today. The stock sold up to 250 an hour and a quarter after the market opened. Last year its low point was 64 and its high 169-7-8. Durant's friends said he became interested in Castiron Pipe in 1923. The stock has earned heavily. Its 1923 earnings were estimated at $21.92 a share in 1924 at $44.67 and now they are put at about $60. The increased earnings resulted from the corporation's acquisition of a method for making cast pipe of such strength that it would hold a thread for joining. This is a "comeback" for Durant, for at one time he was "taken over" by bankers and the General Motors Corp., of which he twice was the head. The "bears" paid heavily to bring Durant back.

ADMINISTRATION'S Herman Stern Again To Be Master of Ceremonies The fourth California Valencia Orange Show, which was abandoned last year because of the foot and mouth disease in sections from which visitors were expected, will be held May 14-24, the show committee decided at a meeting yesterday afternoon. The committee consists of Herman Stern, chairman, on whom has fallen the brunt of responsibility in past years; Sidney Prince and Charles Harbison. The big exhibit will be staged on the eight acres at North Los Angeles and palm-sts and will be "larger and better than ever before," according to Prince, who added that the show would be on the same lines as planned last year, so far as could now be foreseen. To a large extent at least the same literature and advertising matter can be used as would have been used in 1924. The dates selected include two Saturdays and two Sundays, an important aid in swelling the attendance. Whether a permanent entrance will be erected, as talked of last year, is a matter that hasn't been considered yet, of course. There is plenty of time yet for that, as Prince pointed out. One benefit of a permanent entrance would be its advertising value, said Prince, as with the San Bernardino show.
