INDUSTRIALS FIND ►NEW HIGH GROUND IN STREET TRADE " European Situation and Business Depression Offset by Technical Strength, OILS CONTINUE TO DROP Announced Policies of President Coolidge Strengthen Confidence of Public. Tl- WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. Aug. 16.—The fact .hat Tuesday’s late rally In dealings of the stock exchange was due primarily to the scarcity of stocks available for short covering, today created further uneasiness among the shorts. In the early dealings prices were generally strong, despite the uncertainty aroused by Germany's determination to maintain her policy of passive resistence in the Ruhr. Steel common at the highest level reached Bn the current recovery and other leaders held around the best prices seen in two weeks. First Hour Leading industrials continued to gain in the first hour in face of furtner unsettlement in oils. Mexican Seaboard sank to a low of 6. against high 11 1-2 in the previous session reflecting suspension of the dividends. Sinclair made anew 1923 low at 19 1-2 ;and other oils were heavy in response to gasoline cuts in the East and South by Standard of New Jersey, to meet the Standard Oil of Indiana's reductions in the west. Announced policies of President Coolidge have strengthened public confidence. Second Hour Despite dropping in oils. American Can. Studebaker. Baldwin and Steel made further progress on the rally. Favorable Washington developments seems to be more than offsetting the adverse European developments, the gasoline price war and the current re -cession in business. Standard Oil of New Jersey today declared the regular quarterly dividends of 25 cents on the common stock and $1.75 on preferred. Xono Hour The street had a well-founded re port that operators prominent on the bear side since March had reversed their position and were prepared to make a play on the side of rising prices. This rumor received some Verification when the general list Proved ahead in the wake of these stocks which went into new high aground on the recovery. Important accumulation has been placed on the theory conditions in Europe cannot get much worse and the next turn should be for the better. Twenty active industrials Tuesday averaged 59.11. up 15: twenty active .jails averaged 78.31, up .21.

Aug. 15.—Evidence Hist the curb oil issues have about Mscounted the bearishness of the gasoline war and Its accompanying i viljs was found in that group today. Oil dropped to its low of the year at 50. % News of broad extension of the gasoline price cuts came into the market early, but Standard Issues showed resistance. There is a general realization that the Standard issues can stand the loss of the gasoline dip. Standard of Indiana refused to Break through the 50 level while Prairie Oil and Gas improved to 1.72, up 2 from Tuesday. The New York stock dropped % of a point, due to tne price cuts made today by the company, but Vacuum held steady at 44 Ohio improved half a point. The Wyoming issues bettered their positioij, Salt Creek Producers at 16%. Mutual at 8% and Mountain Producers at 14. Southern States dropped % to 14%. The Atlantic refining Company declared today that the rtail price of 16 cents a gallon is destructive of the industry. Dow Jones & Cos. declared today that the situation Is not too favorable for Standard Oil because of its heavy capitalization. The problem confronting the industry, it was declared, is now to carry large stocks through the winter. It is in this respect that the smaller companies seem at a disadvantage. There was a broader interest In the industrial department with prices tending higher . Packing stocks took on anew lease of life on the strength of the showing of Armour & Company. / g!9 LEGAL NOTICES ■ (Continued From Preceding Page) NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT Notice is hereby given that the under* signed has duly qualified as xecutor of estate of Theresa Elizabeth Norton, deceased, late of Marion County.

Many Enamoured A score of film beauties were enamoured of Taylor. All of them he treated with the deepest kindness and consideration, but until now, it was believed none had broken through his shell of reserve and won his heart. ‘The first time I met him I knew he was the one man in the world for me, and I saw from his eyes he returned my love,” Mary said Tuesday. “If it had not been for my mother, we would have consummated our wonderful romance. “I was 17 when I first met him. He was so kind, and so tender. With the coming of adolescence, my mother began to realize men were attracted to me. I liked their company—they were so jolly. ‘lt worried her because I was so popular with the men. My sister Margaret was older, and mother thought she should have the first chance.

Haven’t you any brains?' she asked. I threatened to scream, but lt did no good. She locked me in the room and wouldn’t let me out of the house. Meanwhile, she called her attorney.’’ "We were called innumerable times for questioning by the district attorney, who hoped we could sned some light on the murder.
