There were rallies from the
early decline but they met in-
fferings as prices
proaciicd yesterday’s closing quo
tations during the middle of the
morning. The market eased off
apain in consequence, soiling
down to 28.16 for March and 28.02
for May or 16 to 18 points net
lower on the general list. The
lat r r cables from Liverpool were
easier under liquidation of near
months there but the official re
port from Manchester said there
was more demand for yarns and a
good demand for cloths from
India. These advices probably
helped to steady the market
midday when prices were
12 points up from the low

A little more trade buying was
reported around 28.62 for May

WASHINGTON—(By the Asso

of the Federal government has
been set in motion to ascertain
whether any foreign embassies
and legations here have brought
Into the country excessive ship
ments of liquor which later was
diverted to the bootleg trade in
the National capital.
As a result of recent disclosu
res by the Washington police who
charged openly that some foreign
envoys are using their diplomatic
immunity to supply bootleggers,
tHe treasury department has sent
a memorandum to the state depart
ment which is understood to call
attentilm to certain unusual ship-
pents oj liquor coming to the em
bassies and legations here.
While no federal protest con
cerning the shipments was made,
high treasury officials said Thurs
day that several shipments in re
cent weeks were of such magni
tude as to attract the attention of
nrohibition enforcement officers.
The treasury was represented as men after crops are l
believing that more liquor was
coming in than was “reasonably
required by the staffs of the for
eign representatives here.
