BUYING OF RAILS FEATURES STOCK MARKETOPENING Announcement Dawes’ Report Delayed Until Thursday Has Little Effect, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, April B.—Announcement of the reparations committee that the Dawes report would be made public on Thursday, a day later than was reported yesterday, calling for a ,old bank of emission an international gold loan and control of the German railroads, was received in non-committal fashion by the stock market. Active issues continued under the same influences which had dominated the previous session, with professional pressure continuing in industrials and persistent buying among the rails. First Hour No letup took place in the pressure on industrials in the first hour. Steel common reached anew loan on the move at 98%, reflecting the dispatch that the United States Steel mills in Sharon district were prepared to cut down to a 75 per cent basis as compared with 95 per cent operations re- | eently maintained. In other groups affected by the slowing down of business, the bearish contingent was also active. A firm that makes a business of lending stocks says there has been no falling off in the demand. More stocks were returned last week than in the preceding week, but the Monday demand was heavier than on any previous day within the last two weeks. Second Hour Publication of the important features of the tax bill reported to the Senate following the drive against steel shares on unfavorable trade news; the general list rallied sharply In the late morning. General Electric snapped back four points from* its low of 211. Baldwin came back a point to 116 and fractional recoveries took place in other industrial leaders. Noon Hour Rails continued to display a strong tone under leadership of Norfolk & Western which reached a further new high for the year at 132%, during the noon hour trading. American Agriculture Chamical preferred rebounded to 24 as compared with Monday’s low of 18 was the outstanding movement among the specialties. The report is that the company is not into receivership and is not going to pass the interest on its bonds. Twenty average industrial stocks Monday averaged 93.03, off 1.02. Twenty average industrial rails averaged 82.80, off .43 per cent.

"The next time you have an officer on an ini toxication charge, call me. I can tell whether or not he is drunk.” "Any patrolman who cannot tell whether or not a man is drunk will he dismissed.

Cravens at Madison, candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor, visited Spencer, Gosport and Mooresville today. He will speak at Martinsville tonight.

II CRAY DEFENSE APPROACHING END (Continued From Page 1) said about the note Instead of a certificate of deposit?” Brown answered: "The Governor was to furnish it. We went after it several times. He gave us notes Instead of the certificate.” Bookkeeper on Stand Miss Minnie Fisher, bookkeeper for the board, was the first witness of the morning. She was on the stand only a few minutes. She testified that I when the $155,000 finally was paid ! back, after the formation of the j “Goodrich pool" in August, 1923, the I certificates of deposit for the amount was turned over to her by William M. Jones, then a member of the board and now secretary-treasurer. Miss Fisher, as a witness for the State, testified as to preparation of 1 the checks turned over to McCray, |and entries on the board's books. State Theory Varies Tiuit the defense scored heavily with its opening witnesses was conI ceded generally at the close of the I Monday session. There was a marked | spirit of optimism among the Gov- ! r.rnor's counsel. What apparently was a wholly unlocked for bomb was hurled at the State in the testimony of Mrs. Cornelia Duke, 2441 E. Sixteenth St„ temporary stenographer in the Governor's office during the last session of the Legislature. She testified that Feb. 14, 1923, she wrote a letter, at the Governor's dictation, to Amos D. Morris, then cashier of the Discount j and Deposit State Bank, instructing j him ; to place SIO,OOO o fa $25,000 de- | posit to the credit of the Treasurer of State. This amount represented the amount of a warrant on the Treasurer of State turned over to the Governor, and which Morris testified last week the Governor had placed to his own credit. Saw Governor Sign Letter Miss Duke told of writing the letter, of seeing the Governor sign it, of stamping and sealing it and giving; it to the Governor’s messenger, Lewis I Liggins, to mail. She said she watched him walk acroffs the Statehouse I6bby j with this letter and two others to a| mail box. Under a searching cross-examina-tion by Inman, site refused to vary her | story. Moberly declared he signed the six! checks turned over to the Governor by Brown in blank and that he did not come especially to Indianapolis to sign them, as Brown had testified. He testified that when the entire matter was under discussion he said to Brown: "Newt, the truth is you let the Governow.have that money. Y'ou got his notes as security.” Jones testified that Brown said to him: "I made aM the checks payable to the Discount and Deposit State Bank. I did not want it known that I was j loaning this money to the Governor. ’ Personalities Exchanged Cross-examination of Jones and Moberly brought on an exchange of personalities between Inman and pytn, one of the Governor’s attorneys. At times the repartee became biting. However, the ill feeling was not lasting ,as they were seen chatting and laughing together after the j trial. Inman accused the witnesses, who were called by the State, hut not used. ! of “going over to the enemy’s camp.” | Inman’s question to Jones as to j whether ije were not under indictment in Federal Court brought out a storm of objections from McCray’s attorneys. Finally Jones asked permission of Judge Chamberlin to answer, and j when granted, he answered in the af- j flrrpative. He is one of nineteen defendants in I a case charging use of the mails in j a scheme to defraud as the result of j investigations of the Federal grand '] jury into affairs of the Hawkins Mort- j gage Company of Portland, Ind. Jones denies guilt in this case. Caldwell Expected to Qualify Fred S. Caldwell. Winchester, Ind., was expected to qualify in Federal Court today as ancillary receiver for the Indiana interests of the Paul Del Laney Company, Ific., of Broctpn, N. Y. He was appointed Mond® by Judge Anderson on petition of the I Charles Boldt Glass Company. Cin- i cinnatl.

C. A WALB SCORED BY HI JOHNSON'S STATEJANAGER Martin Repeats Charge of Undue Activity for Cooiidge by Chairman, „ Charges of undue activity by the Republican State oommittee in behalf of the candidacy of President Cooiidge for the Republican nomination were made again today by Clarence R. Martin, campaign manager for Hiram Johnson. Martin issued a statement following receipt from Clyde A. Walb, State chairman .of a copy of a letter sent by Walb to Charles R. Lane of Ft. Wayne, representative of the State committee, warning Lane that "the Johnson people are complaining about the boldness of the State committee and yourself in taking a hand In the Cooiidge situation." "Decidedly Neutral Stand” “It is extremely gratifying to have the State chairman take such a decidedly neutral stand as between Republican contestants,” Martin's statement said. “It is rflost regrettable, however, that Mr. Walb should wait until the eleventh hour to adopt such a policy, and it is exceedingly unfair to Mr. Lane to be singled out for reprimand. “Evidently Mr. Lane considered that he had a perfect right to advocate the cause of a particular candidate because the example has been set from the beginning of the primary campaign by the State chairman himself. "It is well known that Mr. Coolidge’s Indiana manager was selected at the instance of Mr. Walb. It is also known that employes of the Indiana Republican committee were transferred from the Republican Stdte headquarters office to the Cooiidge campaign headquarters, and that the information they had. acquired as employes of the State committee has been used in organization work for Mr. Cooiidge. Charges Pressure Used It is further known that pressure has been exerted to whip all Republican county chairmen in line for Cooiidge. “As Mr. Walb so graphically states, all this hajs been done with extreme ’boldness.' All the power of the Indiana Republican organization and the National Republican organization has been and is being used to secure Mr. Coolidge’s nomination, regardless of the fact that Hiram Johnson did more to vitalize the issues in 1920 than Mr. Cooiidge, the Vice Presidential candidate did; and despite the fact that it is Republican men and women who are sponsoring Senator Johnson's candidacy who have a right to expect fair treatment from their organisation. t
