SHARP GAINS IN
STOCK MARKET
Houston Oil Features Trading
With 13-Point Rise.
NEW YORK. July 9.—The buying:
movement was continued at the opening
of the stock market today. Initial figures
showing advances from fractions to over
4 points.
Strombers Carburetor was prominent,
advancing 4% to 971?. Barrett Company
and Manati Sugar were other strong fea
tures. both issues making gains of around
2 points. „
Fractional improvement was noted in
the motor and railroad shares.
Among features of the session’s trad
ing was Houston OIL which advanced 13
points net to 103.
Reading became the feature of the mar
ket early in the afternoon, the stock
selling as high as 91%. an overnight gain
of more than four points.
The upward movement continued with
small setbacks. Equipment stocks were
the exception to the general trend. Bald
win went below 125 and American Loco
motive reacted about 2 points.
Call money ruled at 7 per cent, but
scattered selling came into the market
during the last half hour, when call
money got up to 9 per cent. Reactions in
the majority of instances did not amount
to over a point from the day’s previous
high.
Government bonds were unchanged,
with railway and other bonds steady.
Total sales of stock were 939,400 shares;
bonds, $8,512,000.

With a broadening tendency in the
stock market we must expect special in
terests will not be slow in forcing the
favorites to the front.
A few Issues have taken on an aspect
of sensationalism in the manner In
which quotations have been advanced.
For the ultimate good of the market
this tendency is unfortunate, because at
this time in particular we need stability
and gradual improvement, rather than
violent advances, so as not to disturb
the money market.
Today money was comparatively easy,
the renewal rate was satisfactory and
while there was some shifting of loans,
which is an incident at the close of the
week, no difficulty was experienced so
far as it known in obtaining new loans.
The market was fairly broad all day.
but a little irregularity developed, which
is not at all surprising, considering the
fact that we already have enjoyed a fair
advance, with reasonable profits tempting
holders.
Reading became one of the features of
the market, but this can hardly be con
strued as relating to the general railroad
situation, although there was a fair de
mand for rails, particularly the lower
priced ones.
We see nothing at the moment to war
rant any unusual market enthusiasm,
but feel so long as the money market
does not present any unusual obstacles,
stocks will continue upward.

.1. H. ARRINGTON,
South Bend Man, Held
for Murder, Gets Bail
SOUTH BEND. Ind., July 9.—Augustus
A. Schultz, who has been In jail here for
three months, charged with the murder
of E. A. Muessell and Frank Chrobat in
December, 1913, was released on bail by
Judge Lambert In the St. Joseph court,
Thursday.
He was arrested after his wife gave
the detectives a tip that he was the
slnyer of the two men, the killing being
the result of an attempt to rob the Muos
seil Brewing Company.
The betrayal on the part of his wife
followed a quarrel w-ith her.

GRAINS STEADY
AFTER DECLINE
Good Buying on Breaks Serv es
to Balance Market.
CHICAGO, July 9. —Grain futures
closed about steady on the Board of
Trade today after a session in which good
buying on the breaks kept the price up.
The same bearish factors—weather,
crop conditions and foreign selling—
were In evidence and there was a selling
rush at the opening.
Provisions were higher at the close.
Prices broke toward the end on word
from New York that three steamers had
arrived tllere with 700,000 bushels of
Argentine corn, with 800,000 bushels more
offered, c 1 f New York, in bags, at $1.38.
Corn Products refused to bid, as it has
four months’ supply, so local longs start
ed dumping their lines, and found sup
port lacking on the way down.
(By Thomson & McKinnon)
There was a little over-night selling
pressure early and after a little stead
iness, the market had a further liquidat
ing period, which rather cleaned It up.
The buying was of a better glass than
the selling all day. The basis for it was
less weakness in the cash situation than
expected with higher prices for cash
wheat and rye.
After this buying support took care of
the offerings, a further wave of short
covering and new buying came on its re
ports of northwest rust.
Some buying had the government re
port for a basis.
Crop conditions are so favorable that
anything in way of a cha.ige would
likely be detrimental, but from present
conditions sales on bulges are still sug
gested.
Oats gave a good account of Itself, be
ing less weak than might have been ex
pected with so much pressure on corn.
Cash oats were finally l%c higher than
yesterday.
We are going to have comparatively
high wheat, rye and corn prices for some
time to come and tinder present condi
tions we still believe tint September and
December oats, bought at these exces
sive discounts under .’ash prices, will
prove remunerative.

U, S. REVENUES
JUMP IN STATE
Collections for Year Greater
by $14,308,054.
According to George YV. Spencer, acting
internal revenue collector for Indiana,
revenues collected during the fiscal year
ended June 30 showed an increase of ap
proximately 24 per cent over the revenues
collected during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1919.
The total amounts collected during the
fiscal year 1920 totaled $73,608,786.91, as
compared with $59,300,076.30 for 1919,
showing an Increase of $14,308,054.06.
The income tax receipts showed a total
of $46,091,162.20 for 1920, with only $23,-
017,604.65 ns miscellaneous taxes, while
$34,572,093.71 In income taxes were col
lected In 1910, with $24,728,619.14 In mis
cellaneous taxes.
The gain in the revenue collection is
entirely w'itbln the Income taxes as the
miscellaneous taxes have fallen off
$811,014.40 during the last year.
However, it is thought that the amount
of the miscellaneous taxes will climb
during the next year under the cam
paign that is being waged for the collec
tion of luxury taxes, which is Included
in the mlscellaenous group.
Whisky taxes, theater taxes, narcotic
stamps, udmission taxes and brokers'
taxes are among the itemized list that
make up what is known as the miscella
neous group of taxes, Mr. Spencer said.
Up to September of last year there
were two divisions of the state for in
ternal revenue collections, the western
division, with headquarters at Terre
Haute, and the eastern division, with
headquarters at Indianapolis, but at that
time they were merged into one and the
general headquarters placed at Indian
apolis.

BEING ‘FIRED 9 PET
COX ON ROAD UP
Democratic Nominee Tells
How He ‘ Quit ’ Paper .
DAYTON, 0., July 9.—Two men, one
a small town school teacher, and the
other a railroad president, guided his
career to a presidential uominatilon. Gov.
Cox believes.
The school teacher, John Q. Baker of
Middletown, 0., changed Cox from a re
publican to a democrat, and the railroad
president caused him to quit bis work ns
a reporter and become a congressman's
secretary, thus starling his political
career.
Baker "converted” Cox in high school
bv preaching democratic tariff policies to
hint.
The railroad president, who is still
living, but whose name Cox declines to
give, became angry at a story the nom
inee wrote about his railroad and caused
the governor to lose the railroad assign
ment on a Cincinnati paper.
A few days later Cox was offered the
secretaryship to Representative J. Korg
and went to Washington.
"I doubt if I would have quit being
n reporter if it hadn't been for the rail
road president," ('ox said.
Lafayette Row Over
Saturday Closing
LAFAYETTE, Ind., July 9.—There is
a .ively fight on here between the coun
ty commissioners and other county of
ficers.
The dispute is the result of an order
issued by the county commissioners to
the auditor to notify the officers of the
county to keep their offices open on
Saturdays.
For a long time it has been the custom
to close on Saturday afternoon during
July and August or during the heated
season. *
The commissioners interpret the law
ns saying that the offices must l>e kept
open.
In retaliation, the various officers are
calling on the board of commissioners to
hold their sessions according lo law,
which plainly specifies that they shall
meet the Hrst week of each month from
9 a. m. to 5 p. m.
