STOCK MARKET TONE STRONG Crucible Steel Up in Initial Hour 1-2 to 11-2 Points. NEW YORK. Jan. 11.—The stock market tone continued generally strong at the opening today, with most interest attached to trading in issues in which the short Interest seems to be in trouble. Crucible Steel, which loaned at % per cent premium for use over night, started with sales at 97 and 98 at the same moment, against 96% at the close yesterday, and In the next few minutes moved up to 100. Baldwin Locomotive was also in urgent demand, advancing I*4 points to 92%. Steel common was ranging from 83% to 83*4, and showing a small fractional loss at the end of the first fifteen minutes. * Republic Steel rose % of a point to 68%. Mexican Petroleum also shewed some strength and rose 2% points to 162. Studebaker yielded % of a point to 54% and then 'rose to 56%. Many of the railroad stocks also showed strength. The pace became too rapid late In the forenoon and many issues sustained sharp reactions from the high levels. Crucible continued to attract most attention. for delivery with % per cent premium for Us use today. After spiling up to 102%. an advance of 7% points, it reacted to 99, the market being disturbed to an extent by the scarcity In Crucible Steel, a condition that was not liked by important interests in the market. Interest was attached to the trading in American Woolen, which after yielding 1% to 69%, rose to 70%. ’Mexican*P tro, after advancing to 162, yielded to 158%. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Jan. 11— The market opened yesterday a rather uninteresting manner. There seemed to be a disposition to sell stocks both by the longs as well ns by the professional element. As heretofore, however, there were a few exceptions and several specialities acted well. I. A. C. was an early favorite and In Crucible shorts were evidently uneasy, as the loaning rate for the stock had advanced to half a point per day ami as this stock began to respond to the short coverings It encouraged some buying of other steel shares. But it was later in the day when the real market sentiment developed. There was a sudden demand for a number of issues and the buying,was on such a large scale that the conclusion was Immediately reached that some important short lines are being covered, or that possibly some leading professional traders were changing positions.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1921.
GRAIN FUTURES SUFFER DECLINES Strong Prices Featured the Opening Hour. CHICAGO. Jnn. 11.—After n strong opening, grain prices declined slightly on trading on the Chicago Board of Trade today, due to lack of demand for exports. The advance at the opening of the market which carried all quotations up fractionally followed an advance of 8 cents on the Buenos Aires market. Trading was light with local selling the most conspicuous feature. Provisions were. Irregular. March wheat opened at $1.79, up l%c, nnd later lost lc; May opened off lc at $1.69%, dropping %c later. May corn opened at 74%c, up %c, and later lost %c; July opened at 75%c, up %c nnd later lost %e. December oats opened up %c at 48%e, dropping %c before the close. July ! opened at 48c, off %c and dropped %c additional subsequently. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —.Tan. 11Wheat—The flour demand has not come to the front quite as strong as it was expected, but it is likely to be heard from any (lay. Nothing was heard from Argentina about their lax, as was promised ‘ Saturday. i We doubt if March wheat has seen top ! prices yet. but we do feel as though i there might be some recession in val- : ues temporarily before higher prices than 1 those made yesterday. The principal busts for this prediction is that so much short wheal was covered yesterday along with the export I buying. [ Corn—This market again had all kinds of bear news to face.* Cash prices were about 1 cent lower and a trifling matter of 112,000 bushels taken for export. The advance that It got from the lower opening was entirely In sympathy with wheat, and -even with that help, the prices are closing lower than the Saturday close. We expect to see this market break away from wheat In the near future, while any weakness in wheat would cause free selling Immediately. CHICAGO CASH GRAIN. WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.

Stock and Bonds Take on Firm Tone The tone of business on the local stock exchange today would lead one to believe that the business men, especially men engaged in the sale of stocks and bonds, are more optimistic of the general business conditions than they were a week ago. Several of the most important issues on th elists were bid lip. However, the sale of stocks and bonds did not reach the total that was reached on the opening session of the week, when the sales amounted to $29,000 In Government bonds.

INAUGURATION PLANS SLUMP Harding's Request Expected to Cut Expenditures. MARION, Ohio, Jan. 11.—Confidence was expressed at Harding headquarters today that the request of the Presidentelect that all plans for an inaugural eele--5 bration be abandoned would be complied j with Immediately. The message sent by Senator Harding to Senator Knox, chairman of the congressional Inaugural committee, and Edward B. McLean, chairman j of the national Inaugural committee, left no doubt as to the decided stand taken by the next President against any extra preparation or expenditure for this event. Senator Harding has felt keenly, It is said, tbnt any undue expenditure, bj j the Federal Government, the States or | by Individuals, would ill conform with j the plans for economy and elimination of j waste on which he has laid so much j stress. To these considerations were added reports of exorbitant charges planned for accommodations and points of vantage In Washington. His wishes in the matter, it was pointed out, were made perfectly plain in his message to Senator Knox In asking omission of the parade and ball. He said; “It will be most pleasing to me to have this ceremony take place within the ; Cnpitol or on (he east porch without a ; single extra preparation for the occasion. : This will require no expense and we will ! be joint participants in an example of economy as well as simplicity which may ! lie helpful in the process of seeking our j normal ways once more. I
EFFORT MADE TO OPEN PEASE CASE Sipe and Engelke Submit Statements. Following the announcement that the State and Judge Frank J. Lahr of the s Juvenile court would attempt to have the Appellate Court reconsider the case of I Charles R. Pease, 3 local contractor, who j was fined SIOO and costs and sentenced to ninety days on the farm, County Clerk Richard V. S:pe and John F. Fngelke, prosecutor and investigator of the juvenile court, made statements to. day in their own beha f. The Pease ease was reversed last week by the Appellate Court because there was no signature of the prosecutor of the Juvenile court on a copy of the affidavit in the transcript of the case. Tho original affidavit against Pease, which Is on file In the Juvenile court, shows that It was signed by Mr. Engelke, and that he swore Lieut. Robert Woollen, a police officer, to the affidavit. • I remember swearing Lieutenant Woollen to it at the time the affidavit was made against Pease," declared Mr. Engelke. during a conference with County Clerk Slpe today. “No one is going t*> shift the blame on ! this office for a fault in the transcript ' as I am sure that the transcript clerk included every word of (he affidavit la | the transcript,'' declared Mr 1 . Slpe. PRODUCES OTHER AFFIDAVITS. The county clerk then produced three other affidavits of the Juvenile court. One of them did not contain a seal or the signature of the prosecutor; a second one contained a sea! but no signature, and a third was not even filled out and did not contain either a signature or a seal. Mr. Engelke examined the three affidavits in question nnd stated that these affidavits 'were not made out in ills handwriting and that they wore disposed of on days that he was not in court. “* am certain that every affidavit which l have made out has been properly signed and attested,’’ said Mr Engelke. “These j three affidavits have no bearing ou the j Pease case.” “I know that, but it shows the cotidi- ; tion of affidavits corning from the juvenile court," stated Mr. Slpe. The three affidavits now questioned by Mr. Slpe are as follows: I.uey Steele, child neglect, tried Dec. 2, 1919, fined SSOO and sentenced to ninety j •lays, all suspended. There Is no seal or signature to this affidavit. Anthony Stevens, neglect of child, case was dismissed on motion of State In De- ; cumber, 1910. The affidavit part of the ! charge is not even made out, with no ! name to show who filed it and no seal or ! signature of the prosecutor. Millie Stone, chil neglect, found not i guilty March 13, *9i7. No seal; no sig- ! nature. Mr. Engelke states that he had noth- | lug to do with these affidavits. Judge j I.ahr instructed Mr. Engelke to invest!- j gate these affidavits and report to the i court on tho condition of the affidavits. ! Pease was charged with contrbuting j to the delinquency of a young girl and : when the charges were filed the case j created much interest. A big effort was j made to keep the story out of the papers : •it the time, but the efforts failed. In the meantime steps are being con- | sidered to petition the Appellate Court j to reopen the case. STAB GAMBLER DURING FIGHT AT DICE PARTY (Continued From Puge One.)
