COKE SALE UP TO NEW MANAGER Community Clubs Ask Direct Delivery to Consumer, Whether the Citizens Gas Company will agree to sell its by-product coke direct to local retailers instead of through a Cincinnati jobber, will not be decided until after Clarence L. Kirk, new general manager, takes charge June 1, it was said today. The Indianapolis Federation of Community Civic Clubs has advocated the change, so consumers will not have to pay the jobber’s profit. Edward J. Birk, of the Gas Company invited >he Chamber of Commerce smoke ibatement committee to a conference late Tuesday. Wider use of coke would mean less smoke, it is contended Tire Taken From Auto A tire, valued at ?17.50, was stolen from the automobile of Robert W. Byrne, 3868 Park Ave., while the car was parked at Market and Pennsylvania Sts., Byrne told police. §L

BEARS GO GAMING IN EARLY BOORS 1 OF DAY’S MARKET Steel Depressed to New Low and Studebaker Succumbs to Pressure. PROFESSIONALS AT WORK Banker Says Entire Floor Bearishly Inclined —Baldwin Attacked. The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. May 16.—Prices were decidedly Irregular at the opening of the stock market today with most of the activity being confined to United State Steel which again sold down to 97*4, duplicating the low price made in the reaction last Saturday. Asa result of this tendency in steel, numerous other leading issues lost ground from their opening prices which were, in many cases, better than Tuesday's closing level. First Hour Stocks developed a somewhat firmer tone shortly after the opening. Steel selling around 97 ! ,w and Studebaker crossing 111, but a definite trend was lacking. Weakness in Steel seems attributable to rumors circulated that structural prices had received a cut. The heaviest seller of Studebaker has been a leading professional. Insiders seem to be giving little support to the stock, which is paying $lO a share annually. Second Hour Renewed pressure was encountered at the opening of the second hour and Steel went to anew low at 96 T * while Bethlehem broke to 53. Fertilizer stocks were sold freely, but many issues, including Baldwin, met resistance around their lows and railieu slightly. The market, however, was extremely dull and without support features. One banker said the entire floor appeared to be bearish. Noon Hour. The market became firmer and more active in the noon dealings. In which Steel rallied to 97 %. while Baldwin sold above 128, as compared with Tuesday’s close of 127 *4, and Corn Products at 131. The upturn, however. was not very impressive and the period of activity was brief. Call money declined to 4 per cent, as compared with the early rate of per cent, with no demand. Twenty active industrial stocks on Tuesday averaged 95.95 off .95 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 82.22, off .49 per cent.

WEATHER DAMAGE BOON TO GRAINS Freezing Temperature Reported Harmful to Winter i Wheat. fly United Financial CHICAGO, May lfi.—Further dam age from recent cold weather and a superabundance of moisture in the Ohio Valley and parts of the Southwest caused grains to strengthen and the market closed higher today. Following the early dip, wheat prices firmed and made good advances. Advices fro ntthe Southwest told of damage to the winter crop by freezing weather. Retarded planting operations and out-country high prices caused strength in corn. Kansas City reported bids of 61c for No. 1 yellow icorn. Oats advanced with other grains. The Government crop report showed favorable conditions of the recently planted crop. Provisions were strengthened by increased buying by packers, a higher hog market and firm cables.

Stocks of wheat in Chicago public elevators last week increased 155,000 bushels while corn and oats decreased 847.000 and 81.000 bushels, respectively. A Canadian miller recently returned from Kurope. declared the condition is not promising- for Hour exports FVirs that the recentlv seeded corn crop in Illinois will rot in the ground, the result of eontinued cool weather. was expressed by farmers and traders.
