REACTIONS FELT IN EARLY TRADES ON STOCK-MARKET Heavy Selling Continues From Moves Started Late in Friday's Market, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, March 24—Weekly mercantile reviews said the weather conditions were the only obstacle to record business for the season. However, the market in the early (Waling was still under the influence of sellins In progress most of the previous session. Speculative leaders were heavy and new lows on tho reaction were scored by several active Industrials. Studebaker dropped nearly a point on the initial transaction, ns did Baldwin, Anaconda and other recent favorites. First Hour Stocks continued heavy in the first hour, but evidence of better support was noticeable In a number of pivotal stocks like American Locomotive, Baldwin. American Can, Studebaker and California Pete. Bears made the most of the talk concerning prospects of higher rediscount rates, but it was stated on the highest bonking authority that no change In the 4Vi per cent figures was contemplated. Closing Hour Despite President Harding's statement revision of transportation would bo one of the first measures to be laid before the new Congress, no further progress was made by reactionaries. Many speculative loaders responded to points of advance. Wall Street evidently was unmoved by the reiterated announcement that the President’s speeches this summer would deal with questions directly af feeling Wall Street From a political view it is questioned whether the President's prdgram is more than a back-fire to the activities of the radicals in the next Congress. Twenty active industrial stocks Saturday averaged 103.28. off .70 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 88.78. off .02 per cent.

CLARENCE SAUNDERS Bii United Xeics NEW YORK, March 24.—The Piggly Wiggly bubble has hurst, and Clarence Saunders, the three-day wonder of Wall Street, is again laughed at by brokers as "the boob from Tennessee." Operators in "the street” admire a man who can beat them at their own game. Their admiration, grew when the Tennessee grocer forced "shorts” to settle Wednesday at $l5O a share and threatened Thursday to boost the price to $250. Then Saunders did what no "wolf” is ever expected to do. He weakened and showed a spirit of charity. He wired the National City Bank here that he would accept settlement of 7,000 shares at SIOO, so he couhl get the matter off his mind and go back to the grocery business where he belonged.
HOSTILITYTOWARD AGENTSADMITIED (Continued From Page 1) i'kman. The Government contended these were planted on Ukman by Staignaich after his arrest. Harris fetid he was permitted to see Ukman at the jail the morning after his arrest, before Ukman’s lawyer got to see him. He said his attempts to | get Ukman to confess were purpose of getting a story for his | paper before other newspapers. J. Glenn Harris Testifies J. Glenn Harris, State representa- ! tlve from Lake County, denied Ukman’s story thaU he had seen l Ukman at the jail and told Him to [ sign whatever papers the Gary of ficlals wanted him to sign and had i told him that Morgan, Elliott and l other Federal officials had "gone back on him." Harris said that in answer to a telephone call from Ukman he went to tiie jail. "They are to frame on me, Ukman told me. I asked him if he had seen his lawyer, ar.d he answered 'no'. ” Harris said. Harris testified that following I'kman's arrest lie stayed with Ukman because he suspected someone might “plant” money in Ukman’s pockets. "Were you Interested in involving Winkler?" he was asked. Was After a Story ' I was only interested in getting a story," Harris said. "I? Winkler had been involved it would have been a better story and if Morgan had been involved it would have been still a better story. The higher the official the better tlie story.” Judge Geiger asked Harris if this was Ms attitudedn discussing I’kman with Morgan. Harris sai.l he did not think he had been antagonistic. “Harris seems to have been pronouncing sentence.” the judge said. The defense put Charles J. Orbison, former Federal prohibition enforcement officer for Indiana, on the stand to have him testify Clyde Hunter, former prosecutor and a defendant, agreed to enforce the prohibition law. j The government objected to the ad- ; mission of tho testimony and was sustained. ouice the defense opened Thursday afternoon efforts have been concentrated against Ukman’s testimony. Ukman's arrest, witnesses have admitted, was a “frame-up,” but they insisted that the piot was laid in order to catch him in a plot to blackmail bootleggers. Bribe Alleged Tho plot, witnesses testified, was re-1 ported by Ralph Staignaich. a defendant. According to Staignaich, Ukman j had prepared forged Government search warrants and intended to tell ] liquor law violators that for ?500 he would destroy the warrants. Ukman’s story that he was beaten, blackjacked, cursed and threatened by Gary officials, following his arrest, was denied by all defense witnesses. Handwriting experts testified that the signatures on the forged warrants ! said to have been found on Unman were in his handwriting, i After denying that profanity was used when Morgan and George WinkI ler, group chief of Federal prohibition | agents, were denied permission to see ! Ukman the night of his arrest, Frank I Roach, night captain of police, said he ' told Morgan, “So this is the kind of ja man you have working for you.” Myron Harris, Gary newspaperman, j denied he used profanity to Morgan in speaking of Ukman. Profanity Denied "I did say that Ukman is as crooked as a barrel of snakes,” Harris said. Judge Ferdinand A. Geiger took a hand in the cross-examination of Roach and questioned him carefully as to what had happened at the police station following Ukman’s arrest. The witness admitted that lie had arranged with Staignaich to catch I’kman withou; investigating'the possibility of Rt;i gntii h "flaming on" Ukman. The defense rest until Mon day ,at the earliest, attorneys said. They had hoped Vo complete their case today, bi>t unexpectedly slow progress was made Friday. Many of the sixty-
