A wild half hour on the New York Stock Exchange saw Rock Island rise from 50% to 81% before bears drove it back. 52,000 shares changed hands as short sellers struggled to deliver. Officials hint at a broader intrigue in International affairs and the possible role of major owners William H. Moore and Daniel G. Reid, while London and Paris speculators reportedly absorbed and drove up prices.

Engineer Camp Discharged After Clinton Train Sideswipe
Superintendent C N Woodward of the Shore Line Division says Engineer George Camp, who headed the Owl train that sideswiped a freight at Clinton while asleep last month, has been discharged from railroad service. No palliation is accepted for such conduct, as the road requires full competence for head end duties. The New Haven attributes its safety record to strict enforcement of this rule.
