The first ar rest growing out of the brutal murder of Marie Colbert, pretty corset and stocking model, last Friday, was or dered this afternoon, when Captain of infectives Tate swore out a warrant for the apprehension of B. W. Lewis, son of Wenman Lewis, who is specifi cally charged with huvmg defrauded Klwood Powell, of $1!) taxi fare. In vestigation of the murder, led to the belief that Lewis is the man who ordered the taxi at the Bellene-8trat ford, accompanied two women to an exclusive seetion of Germantown and then ordered Powell to drive to the Wilton apartments. A police "flier" was sent broadcast ordering Lewis' arrest for ''defraud. " A 'flier' is a telegram by which a person can be held to await the ar rival of the warrant itself. The police department declared that a man who got out of a machine and entered the Wilton apartment building must have been the last person to see her before she was beaten to death and that he might throw some light on the murder. Last Games of Series Tomorrow Night 1 rfguar monthlv banquet and business meeting of the Business Men's Gymnasium Class of the Y. M. CT A. wjH be held immediately following the gymnasium class tomorrow night. The last games in the present series will be played and part of the business of the evening will include the election of new captains. While the present series , has already been decided so far as ! P0 concerned Captains Hull and i Hf nTln;Aln nm h M s hni'Vi nun Id DT game of biff and volley ball before shaking hands as is the custom on the last night of each montn s contest. The banquet following is to take on unusual style. Curtiss Ctoss has pro cured three large turkeys for the oc casion and a committee of ladies con sisting of Mrs. L. H. Oompton, Mrs. J. H. Farrar, Mrs. C. E. Albin, Mrs. D. Misner and Mrs. O. B. Gingrich is to make the necessary domestic science preparations. Very recently some of the members of the business menos class have taken a peculiar liking to cabaret singers and dancers and among other interesting numbers on the program will be sev eral songs by a noted singer imported for the event. The interest in the Comnv.vial Bas ket Ball league of Y. M. C, A. was at top notch pitch last night when more than three hnndrea spectators iiueo the Association gymnasium to witness the initial contests of the season. It was expected that the teams would be unable to demonstrate any great team qualities in these initial games but diirinir the course of tlf? evening many spectacular plays were pulled off and the work on the part of the Ban', Price and Shipp teams was noticeable. As individual point winners (iill of the Price Shoo Company, and Brooks and Baker of the Bank team were the particular stars. The first game between the Fry's Drug Store and Watt Shipp Company was won by Watt Shipp Company. Al lan Carson, the tall . center for the Shipps, caged three field baskets in the last minute and one half of the game and thereby won for his team. The score was 15-11. The second game between the Price Shoe Company and Hauser Bros, was won by the former by a decisive score of 19-4. Captain Utter showed good form for the first night and the teams appear to have the possibilities of a atrniior oeniiant contender. The third game, between the Capital National Bank and the Bishops was won by the bank by the. score of 23-7. At no time during the game was the game in doubt, the bank seeming to score at will. Captain Turner of the Bishops was absent from the city for his first game and the team was con siderably weakened by his absence.

The New York Evening Sun financial review today says: News developments overnight and during the day tended to make the stock market nervous to a degree and before midday caused a sharp break of two to fivte points or more in both the industrial and railroad lists. The market continued under considerable pressure well into the afternoon, fol lowed by an irregular movement with a firmer trend. Trading was, however, of a highly professional character. At the opening, prices were irregular within more or less narrow limits but before the end of the first hour a garbled report from Waidiington to the effect that the federal reserve board had repeated itB warning to the banks with respect to the purchase of foreign treasury Bills started the ball rolling down hill. By one o'clock sales approximated 1,000,000. United States Steel touched a new high level on this movement at 115 7-8 but later sold below 112 and moved steadily around that level. The other steel issues and the copper group lost from one to five points. At the beginning of the last hour of the session, prices recovered a point or more, but the movement was of but brief duration. Recessions were again in order toward the closing although the movement was not-entirely consist ent. Steel reacted to 111 1-2 and then rallied to the neighborhood of 112.
