SLUMP TOUCHES STOCK MARKET Few Issues Make Recoveries —Some Go Still Lower. NEW YORK, April 20.—The stock market closed Irregular today. After the sharp decline around 2:30 o’clock, some of the , '*ading issues recovered about 1 point from the low level*, while other* again yielded in the last few minutes. United States Steel sold down to 83 and the other steel issues were under pressure, Republic falling to 03%, Crucible to 82 and Bethlehem “B" down to Kelly-Springfleld continued in demand and. after reacting to 48%, rose to 50%. Studebaker was in supply, falling nearly 3 points to 90%, while Mexican Petroleum hung around 148%. The railroad Issues receded fractionally. Total sales of stocks today were 1,194,200 shares; bonds, $14,511,000. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —April 29 Poring the first few minutes of the trade today there was Just a little uncertainty as to the market. A fairly good volume of buying orders was followed by the offering of stocks by the professional element, but It soon became manifest to them that the commission house demand for stocks had not been satisfied. Buying orders again appeared, and the execution of these orders In competition with shorts started the market upward, and some new highs were soon established. Later on, some aggressive selling developed In Mexican Petroleum and Atlantic Gulf. From appearances, it looked as though this move was calculated to permit of short covering in other stocks, but apparently this was not very successful. The general market held well, and many specialties continued to move forward into new high ground, Kelly-Springfield and Cosden Oil being the new leaders. Studebaker established anew high, but the tradiug here was irregular, disclosing considerable profit taking. A notable feature of the day was the strength of the equipment stocks. Os greatest significance is the gradual broadening of the market. New issues are gradually being added to the active list, the public Interest is on the increase, and a feeling of greater confidence prevails, which should Increase as the market moves forward. Nothing succeeds like success, and the broadening and advancing tendency in the stock market helps to create confidence in other lines of business. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE. NEW YORK.

WHEAT PRICES HIGHER Corn and Oats Suffer Declines —Provisions Unsteady. CHICAGO, April 29.—Wheat quotations advanced sharply on the Chicago Board of Trade today, due to heavy buying by commission houses with eastern prices. Corn and oats declined slightly because of heavy offerings with only scattered buying. Provisions were irregular. May wheat opened at $1.30, up 3c, and closed up %c. July wheat opened up %c at $1 06 and closed up l%c. May corn opened at s?e, off %c, and closed off %c. July corn, after oponing up %c at 61c, lost %c. September corn opened up %c at 6%c and closed off %c. May oats opened up %c at 6%c and closed at 35%c. July oats opened up %c at 37%c and closed off %c. September oats opened up Vic at 3S%c and closed at that figure. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) —April 29Wheat—The constant export business, both in new and old wheat, together with the steady tightening up of cash wheat, is being felt in the market and was largely tesponsible for the action of prices today. In a general way, threats from the growdng crop remains favorable. but there has been too much rain in sections and the Modern Miller says that the promised yield is indicated as biighUy less than a year ago. There is no increase in the selling of old wheat by the country and we are not able to discover that the producing section is contracting the new crop. Vessels are now loading a goodly portion of the small stocks in Chicago and further loadings are expected. There is not much prospect of any free movement to tills market. Minneapolis is offering for shipment here, but it is low grade wheat, deliverable only at a material discount. The outlook at the moment is that the May delivery must rise to the level of the cash wheat, while the July should prove eriatic, under the Influence of crop news ns it appears. Light accumulations, strong premiums for current receipts and the continued export business furnish an excellent foundation for prices Corn and Oats—Expected deliveries of corn and oats on May contra: s have been responsible for a shifting of hold lngs from the M4y to the more deferred deliveries. This has had :t weakening inti uence. Neither market has had important support as the export demand in con and fbe distributing demand in oats are not urgent. Further liquidation of May contracts is expected. Provisions—There has been moderate liquidation of May lard, beyond this, market dull. Prices are considered on a value basis, but it is acknowledged that there is no incentive for higher prices. CHICAGO GRAIN. —April 29WHEAT — Open. High. Low. Close.

OAKTOWN FOLK ARRESTEDHERE Girl, 19, With Man, 39, Taken by Women Police at Union Station. Osie Dale, 19, and Steve (Gentry, 39, both of Oaktown, were arrested by two women police at the Union Depot last night on charges of vagrancy. The police had received information that the man and young girl had started for Indianapolis on different trains and were expected to meet in this city. Gentry was released on a SSOO bond signed by Louis Brown, professional bondsman, who is a supporter of the News-Jewett machine and who receives special privileges not granted to all professional bondsmen at police headquarters. Brown is the man depended upon by the “good government political machine” to line up the west end foreigners for the News-Jewett candidate. Miss Dale was released on a SSOO bond signed by Ruth Wiggins, a relative ot Brown, whose name appears on many bonds at the turnkey's office. Judge Walter Pritchard some time ago issued an order that only one- person’s bond could be signed by a professional bondsman at one time, but whenever Brown signs one bond, and therefore is not eligible under the court’s order to sign another, on the other bond the name of Ruth Wiggins generally appears as surety.

ANTIS STEELED TO FRUSTRATE PRIMARY STEAL (Continued From Page One.) they voted in order that contests may* be raised where the tally sheets show evidences of tampering. An effort is being made now to prevent the well known practice of permitting election officials to withhold the vote : for any precinct until the canvass has proceeded to a point where it is known bow many votes are necessary for the success of any one candidate. Delay in making the returns to the canvassing board is prima facie evidence of fraud and attorneys have pointed out that the election commissioners have the power to refuse to accept such belated returns or to remove the members of the dilatary boards and appoint new officials to take charge of the ballots and count them. "HELD OUT” RETURNS TO BE CONTESTED. Six hours Is regarded as a reasonable period in which to complete the count and it is certain that there will be contests over the receipt of any precinct returns that are “held out” more than twelve hours after the polls close. Special Instructions are being given representatives of candidates to pay particular attention to the first ballots voted. It has been a practice in Indianapolis to give the first voter in the booth two ballots. He brings the'extra ballot out to a confederate who marks It and bands it to the next voter. That voter gets a blank ballot from the election official, votes the ballot already marked for him and then delivers the blank ballot to the same person from whom he got his marked ballot. By this method the election crook can mark every ballot that is voted in the precinct under his direction and he always has s guaranty that he is not paying for votes he did not get. In the last few days desperate effort* have been made by administration forces to raise money for last minute use at tbe polls. Two meetings have been called wherein it was hoped to induce business men to put up cash for use in the election. Representatives of antiadministration candidates have been smuggled into both these meetings and the contributors to such funds will be connected with whatever use is made of the money so collected. Never before in the history of Indianapolis has there been such a large amount of determination to prevent crookedness expressed. Threats have been numerous and there is more likely to be a “rougher time” at the polls this year than ever before. Plans for the arrest of anti-administra-tion workers as fast as they come to the polls were revealed recently by a man who was called into a conference to arrr.nge the details, and preparations have been made to prevent the improper use of the city court under the guise of law enforcement. The posting of rewards and the expressed determination of anti-adminis-tration forces to “go through" with any expose of corruption obtained has undoubtedly caused a timidity among the crooks who were depended upon to steal the last primary. CROOKEDNESS DOES NOT WORRY HOWE. It is most significant that np until yesterday there was no movement on the part of the administration forces to prevent any crookedness at the polls, and the supporters of Mr. Thomas C. Howe had absolutely ignored any efforts for a clean primary, as well as refusing to take part in such movements. Yesterday, however, the administration forces discovered that in the nomination of election boards a number of their precinct committeemen has “crossed” them and nominated election officials who could not be depended upon to do their biddings. Immediately the administration forces began to charge that these committeemen had been corrupted by the antis. It is a safe prediction that there will be at least 5,000 votes stolen in the -primaries Tuesday, but the anti-administra-tion forces are generally of the opinion that more than 5,000 votes will be necessary to elect the administration's candidate. _______ Arm Broken When Thrown From Wagon Kam Rwengel, 70. 1468 Bates street, suffered a broken arm when he was thrown from a wagon yesterday afternoon when a horse he was driving ran away.
