Ibports fFirst Polo Contest Gives Evidence of Hot Play in Future That Indianapolis has some fine material for a flfst-class polo team was demonstrated at Hassler field yesterday when a group of players staged an exhibition game In preparation for the inaugural match game between Indianapolis and Dayton, to be played on the Speedway polo field Tnursday and Saturday afternoons under~the auspices of the newly organized Indianapolis Polo clnb. In the game yesterday the Blues, composed of Charles Schaf, Jess O. Andrew, John Flshbaek and Robert H. Hassler, defeated the Reds, made up of Robert H. Tyndall, George Miller, Frank A. Witt and William Miller, by a score of 8 to However, the Reds were handicapped by the absence of George Miller, and played with but three men until Miller’s arrival at the beginning of the fourth period, when the tide turned. With the score 6 to 0 in favor of the Blues, when Miller galloped Into the breach, the Reds came back strong and the fourth period was scorelesss, while the Reds had the advantage In the last two periods of the game. Because of a late start six periods instead of eight were played. The work of the two Millers—George and William—Robert Hassler and Jess Andrew was especially brilliant. The gallery was thrilled with the scrimmages and the open field dashes for possessaion of the ball, and it Is quite evlden that pony polo is to become an active factor in the sporting life of Indianapolis. The games at the Indianapolis Motor speedway field Thursday and Saturday will begin at 3 o'clock, and it is anticipspter that a great gathering will be present to witness the exhibitions.

SHARP BREAK IN STOCK MARKET Crucible Prominent Exception to General Selling. NEW YORK. June 14.— Despite favorable news over the weekend, such as the report made by the Federal Reserve bank and member banks all over the country, the trend of prices at the opening of the stock market today was downward and substantial losses were recorded during the first fifteen minutes all through the list. Southern Pacific and Reading were In supply at substantial concessions and specialties like Industrial Alcohol and United Retail Stores also showed material declines. Motors were under pressure. The market continued weak during the first hour and there was little outside buying. Later first hour a steadier tone developed and Crucible rose to 114, a new high for this movement. In the late forenoon the market was allowed to drift, going into the third hour with traders still lined up on the short side. Those who looked for an easing in money as a resnlt of the improved bank statement Saturday were disappointed. The renewal rate was 8 per cqpt, the same as on Friday. The foreign exchange market continued strong and sterling had little trouble in keeping above the previous close. Crucible, after making anew high on the present movement, reacted to 154, more than 2 points. A meeting of the Crucible directors is scheduled for Wednesday. There was another drive on prices shortly after 1 o'clock and this carried Steel common below 98. Declines in other steels ran from 2 to 4 points from the opening. The decline was baited when call money dropped to 7 per cent. Government bonds were unchanged and railway and other bonds irregular. Total sales of stocks, 628.600 shares-; ■bonds, $8,530,000. (Bv Thomson & McKinnon.) It is quite evident from action of today's market that the political situation is not a factor at present. The trouble with the market, as we see it, Is due to the commercial situation and our banking position. The great decline we have had was a discounting process, anticipating a change in business. The charge is just becoming manifest in a few lines but has not yet become general, and therefore the market is not prepared to turn and begin discounting the next change. That is one reason why the market recently has been merely marking time and fluctuating within a ‘reasonably good limit. * We look for a continuation of such markets os we have experienced recently and after a few days of weakness stocks can again be bought for a fair turn.

GRAINS ADVANCE AFTER DECLINE Shipping Demand and Small Receipts Are Factors. CHICAGO, Juni 14.—Light receipts. Improved shipping demand for eaßh corn and oats and strength In rye sent grain futures from a slightly lower opening to a sharply higher close on the board of trade today. Early weakness was due to private reports of cloudy and slightly cooler weather and scattered rain over the belt, but the market firmed np after the weather map was posted, showing lighter rains than expected. Much grain was taken out of both big pits during the morning on outside buying through commission houses, anil prices rallied despite considerable profit taking. Commission houses that bought much July corn recently continued to buy it and sell September against It. Persistent buying by a house that sold last week aided In sending the price above Saturtiny's close. Dry and hot weather was very favorable for corn, forcing rapid growth, and the forecast was for no materially lower temperatures for some time. CHICAGO GRAIN, —June 1> — CORN —Open. High. Low.

(By Thomson & McKinnon.) Not only was there disappointment In receipts, but also there was a broadening of the demand. Practically all of the cash Interests are of the Idea that this week will experience the crest of the movement. This idea seems reasonable, because the number of box cars available has not increased as was expected, and it is claimed that about .75 per cent of them are not fit to carry grain. Anew feature in the situation is the reported buying of December corn by the country in the leading southwestern markets. There was no evidence of this character of buying in the Chicago market. The crop received partial relief in the more northern section*. Asa consequence market has rulail comparatively quiet. Advices from central and southwestern territory are to the effect that the*>lantls beading out short. Forecast* call for unsettled conditions In the northern portion of the belt, but with no moderation In temperatures. CHICAGO CASH GRAIN.

Telephone Improvements You’ve heard a lot about them. So have we. But it takes time to fit them into a big System like ours. We want to have, as we always have had, the very latest in everything that pertains to giving you good telephone service. You, however, in the last analysis, are the doctors who say “Yes” or “No.” Improvements can not be put in without money; we can’t get more money unless people will invest it in the business. We have no power of magic that will make people see reasonable returns where there are none. With inadequate rates and high operating costs, we can not furnish good service and pay 'a return upon the money invested. Indiana Hsgll) BeH Telephone Company
