(By Thomson & McKinnon) —March* 5 This has been one of the dullest market Lsessions in some time, relieved only by ■some activity in Reading. There was n j Bbir rally in the stock with the demand i Hnostly from the local trading element. Jprhich probably represented short cover-1 Mug to a large extent. Several explanations Were offered front : this strength. One was that one of the | subsidiary coal companies is expected to: declare a substantial cash dividend. The 1 other, and more plausible, rea on is the expectation of a change in the plan of dissolution, which will deal more liberally with the common stock. The rails generally were fairly steady. In a few some Improvement in quotations was noted. Industrials were very inactive. There was an absence of offerings, and apparently no demand, though market observ- i ers agreed that the local short element were more Inclined to cover. The news of the day presented nothing of a market-making character, though press comment was as a rule very favor- j able in the construction placed on the in- ! augural address of President Harding. There is still an uncertain feeling with j regard to steel and iron prices, and it i looks as though the Cnited States Steel Corporation will have its own way for the present at least and one of the lead- j ing Independents have actually advanced : quotations to the level maintained by the j big company. Commercial agencies note improvement In a few lines, and this improvement should gradually extend and become more general. We -‘Teel that the market tas discounted all that 1s unfavorable.

Stock Market Review NEW YORK, March s.—The Sun’s financial review today said: "Today’s short session of t l ** stock market was reflective neither of passing news development nor yet of positive technical position calling for initiative in any direction. Trading was very dull so far as the general list was concerned. “The list merely marked time to the closing. There was only the most idle sort of see saw business in the second hour, which led to nowhere at all. "Tne best that could be said was that prices held in a way to compare favorably with the Friday levels. Government war bonds were under some pressure. Cotfon was - N. Y.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, MARCH 5, 1921.

GRAIN PRICES FINISH LOWER Heavy Selliijg and Good Crop Reports Factors. CHICAGO, March s.—Grain prices dropped oft thte Chicago Board of Trade today, due to a lack of demand and general heavy selling. Good rains in the Southwest were reported ns helping crop conditions. Tfade was light and dull. Provisions were higher. March wheat opened down %c at $1.73 j and lost 2c additional at the close. Muy . wheat, opened up %c at $1.64% and was i off another 2%c at the close. May corn was unchanged at the open- ' ing at 71%c, but lost %c before the close. July cofn opened off %c, at 73%c, and dropped %c more at the close. May oats opened at 46%c, unchanged, and gloscd off %c. July oats offeued down %c, at 73%c, and closed down an additional %e. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —March 5 Wheat—A distinctly slow demand for cash wheat and forecast of rain or snow j over the major portion of the wheat belt, j brought a little realizing In today’s mar- I ket. A small amount of flour for export , was sold late yesterday, but no evl- , donee of any business today. Premiums for hard winter wheat u'ero about 1 cent | lower, and for soft winter wheat from 1 1 to 2 cents lower, with low grade spring almost unsalable. There has been some selling of the March delivery “by eash handlers, probably against purchases from the country. The immediate market is not likely to develop any important action unless the weather remains unfavorable. In case the predicted precipitation does not appear In the weather j map of Monday there may be firmness, j while on the other hand good rains, espe- 1 dally in Kansas, would result lu lower i prices. Nothing das developed to suggest any strong trend In prices either j way. The entire trade is awaiting the j report on reserves, but of still greater | Importance will be the weather conditions : over the winter wheat belt. Corn aifd Oats—There is a better dis- | tributlng demand for oats but no Un-| provement In corn. There is not sufficient ! demand in either grain to bring relative , strength in the cash market. Deliverable i iH’adcs of corn are selliug at 5 cents and I more under the May delivery and the I movement from the country exceeds the j demand. Ideas of higher prices nre de- j rived frciiu tha farm feeding value but the worth of corn ns converted tuto hogs I has nothing whatever to do with the price rs the present accumulation in the commercial market. Provisions—Lower hogs as well as the i action of corn were influential In the pro- | vision market. There Is a rather brisk demand for fresln meats and but little, if any. improvement In the foreign outlook. % CHICAGO GRAIN. —March 5 WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.

BOND ORDNANCE UP MONDAY NIGHT Council to Get Measure for Building Nurses’ Home. After months of delay the ordinance authorizing the $500,000 bond issue to pay for the erection and equipment a nurses’ hoipe at the city hospital will be presented to the city council Monday evening, it was reported at the city hall today. The ordinance would authorize the issuance of the bonds for thirty-year terms I at 5 per cent interest. The board of health, nie legal department and City Controller Robert H. Bryson have been arguing over the character of the bond issue for several weeks. The board of health started the movement to build the home early in 1920, but never received ■ the cooperation from Mayor Charles W. Jewett necessary to advance the project far enough to get actual construction started. More than a mopth ago Harry E. Yockey, assistant city attorney, who acts attorney for the board of health, j prepared the bond issue ordnance, but j Corporation Counsel Ashby held up Its ! presentation t<x the council because the j term and rate of Interest of the bonds | provided In It did not suit him. Plans for the nurses’ home were prepared for the board of health several months ugo. It was said that preparations are complete to let contracts as soon as the bond issue is sold. GETS IN DEEPER INSTEAD OF OUT Man Seeking Habeas Corpus Writ Recommitted. Judge pro tem Clyde Karrer of Superior Court, room 4, today refused a petition for a writ of habeas corpus asked by R<*y Golden, who was fined SSOO and sentenced to six months in jail on a charge of child neglect by Judge Frank Lahr of Juvenile court. Judge Karrer held that the committ- 1 merit on its face did not shoxy error and | was good. He indicated that the petl- i tioner’s remedy was not in a writ of j habeas corpus but in an appeal from the trial court. Counsel for Golden attacked j the Jurisdiction of the juvenile court. Golden Immediately was ordtred re- 1 committed to the custody of the sheriff. He has indicated that he will appeal from the Judgment of Judge Karrer. When Golden was first sentenced he refused at first to take a suspended sentence from Judge Lahr on a promise to live with and support his wife ami child. At that time he declared he would-weiher stay in Jail. A few days later, he was ; released on suspended sentence. Last week he was recommitted on the showing that he had not kept his agreement with the court. Sayler Funeral to Be at Shelbyville Special to Th Times.

Tills scrap is made up of metul discarded by its shops in the southwestern region from old rails and lmn wreckage brought in from various parts of the road, and from metal worn out in the operation of the railroad. Only thai/part of the metal which cannot be reclaimed is sold for waste or scrap iron. By combining ona pari of I new spring steel with fifteen pa jets of : old spring steel picked out in the scrap i dock 7,875 rebuilt locomotive springs | were salv-ged last year. Springs are | rebuilt in this way at a cost of 3.4 cents a pound, while new springs cost 10 cents a pound. There are about 6,000 tons of scrap in the dock at the present time. In the year 1920 over 22,000 tons of scrap were sold. This material at the present time is worth only about $lO a ton, but by reclaiming for its own use a considerable part, the Pennsylvania Railroad will save many thousands of dollars which it would otherwise spend In buying new material and paits. Forty-five men are employed at the scrap dock to sort the material deposited there into the parts which can be used again by the railroad, and the parts which are no longer useful. Old bolts are taken Into the blacksmith shop, sorted according to sizes, rethreaded and returned to serice.
