STOCKS RECOVER * UNDER IMPROVED BOSINESSTRENO Freight Loading Largest Aggregate for Year — Rail Issues Up. Average Stock Prices Average price of twenty industrial stocks Wednesday was 103.08. off .35. Average price of twenty rails was 89 85, up .04. Average price of forty bonds was 90.15, off .04. Bn United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—Again Thursday the market was kept in an irregular condition by professional drives against parts of the list believed vulnerable on account of the presence of a weak speculative following. Attempts to dislodge ■holdings of this character created unsettlement at various times during the session,, but the main body of stocks maintained a steady front despite these flurries. With the Labor day holiday coming in conjunction with the week-end suspension of business, many traders absented themselves from the hznarket. P Continued improvement in the business conditions throughout the country was reflected in the freight loading in the week ending Aug. 16. which reached the largest aggregate of the year, 952,888 cars. This evidence of steady progress toward autumn trade expansion steadied the market in the early dealings and fractional recoveries ensued in stocks under pressure at the previous close, including American Can and General Electric. Improvement Continues Attacks against various parts of the list failed to check improvement in the main body of stocks in the late morning. Steel regained $1 of the 1% per cent of the dividend reduction at the opening. Additional recoveries also were scored by Can and Baldwin. Buying of the latter was in anticipation of the placing of a $25,000,000 equipment order by Pennsylvania Railroad within the next few days. American Car and Foundry and Railway Steel Spring are also expected to benefit. Maxwell “A” stock led the motors, reaching new high ground for the year at 59. Encouraged by the favorable character of the July earnings. insiders have been the principal buyers of this stock. They mention the price of 70 as its objective.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Melons Are Her Dish KAY CARLIN OF THE "ARTISTS AND MODELS" LIKES LUSCIOUS WATERMELONS.: SHE WON A MELON EATING CONTEST FROM HER SISTER CHORISTERS AT CHICAGO.

SLAYERS' FATE IN HANDS OF JUDGE (Continued From Page 1) Justice Caverly ordered Crowe’s remarks stricken from the records. Judge Scores Crowe "The court orders stricken from the records the closing remarks of the State's attorney as being a cowardly and dastardly assault upon the integrity of this courf.” Justice Caverly said. "And It could not be used for any other purpose except to incite a mob to try to intimidate this court." Crowe protested he did not mean his statement in that way, stating he merely wanted to put his personal feelings before the court. Justice Caverly however, held the remarks were improper and that the court had to take cognizance of them. Crowe concluded his speech with a whirlwind of invectives. He termed the murder of Robert Franks, the “direst In the history of Chicago," and classed the murderers with rattlesnakes and mad dogs. The crime was committed, he said, "simply for the SIO,OOO ransom." When the State's attorney sat down, tired and perspiring from his three-day argument, a few minutes were consumed in reviewing evidence on the indictment charging Nathan and Richard with "kidnaping ransom." which was supplementary to the evidence charging them with murder. Then court was adjourned. The hearing—one of the most sensational on record—was completed. Three Choices Nothing remains but for Justice Caverly to sentence the two slayers. He has three choices —hang them, sentence them to life terms, or sentence them to terms In the penitentiary for not less than fourteen years. Judge Caverly Intends to go Into seclusion for several days to study the thousands of pages of evidence and arguments. Crowe's argument completed the State's case. Two of his assistants argued first for the death penalty. They were followed by three defense attorneys, Walter Bachrach. Clarence Darrow, chief defense! counsel, and Benjamin Bachrach. When the defense arguments were completed Crowe started his lengthy appeal for the two slayers. "I want to tell your honor that the real defense fn this rase is the dangerous philosophy of life of Clarence Darrow,” Crowe shohted today. "Darrow said that the greatest handicap in this case Is the wealth of the two families. I want to tell you If it wasn’t for the money Darrow and the two Bachrach's would not be here.” Friendly Judge Crowe then took up the “friendly judge’’* evidence Introduced by the State. A police officer testified on the stand that Leopold told him he "would go before a friendly judge and plead guilty and get life imprisonment.” The defense attacked the statement as perjury. “If Leopold did not say this, then his attitude In court here indicates he believes he has a friendly Judge,” Crowe cried. “I believe that If it was right for the boys of 18 who went to their deaths In the trenches to protect our laws, then why shouldn’t we hang these men of 19 who violated the laws,” Crowe shouted. Crowe attacked Darrow's claim of youth as a mitigating circumstance. ‘‘lf we are to punish and stop crime by punishment, how can we punish if age Is to be advanced as a defense?’’ Crowe asked. Crowe then read a list of young men hanging for murder. These youths ranged in age from 19 to 27. Many of them were 21 and 22 years of age, Crowe stated. “Appeal to Heart” “The law was made to protect the innocent, and the only way to protect the innocent is to punish the guilty,” Crowe Skid. “I heard Clarence Darrow's plea for mercy. It was an appeal to the heart and sympathies and not your mind and conscience. “These men killed a 14-year-old boy. Robert Franks had a right xO live, and his parents had a right to his society. “In closing, I ask that the extreme penalty te imposed.”

WATER DRINKERS WARNED AGAINSI LEAKY FAUCETS Steady Loss Would Result in Loss of Million Gallons, One million gallons a year would be wasted from a leaky water faucet, if the leak is only one-eighth of an inch in diameter, says the Indiana committee on Public Utility Information. “Cents and dollars drip away from leaky faucets,” the committee declares. "Water wasted means money wasted. The/amount of leakage will vary with the size of the opening and the pressure. With an average pressure of fifty pounds, small leaks may total millions of gallons of water wasted.” A compilation shows for various sizes of leaks the following losses; A steady drop may waste about 4b,000 gallons a year; a leak one-thirm-second inch may waste 60,000 ga> Ions; one-sixteenth inch, 250,000 gallons; one-eighth inch, 1,000,000 gallons one-quarter inch, 4,000,000 gallons; three-eighths inch, 9,000,000 gallons, and one-half inch 16,000,000 gallons. Each consumer may figure for himself his loss at the price he pays for 1,000 gallons.

SEALS MULTIPLY UNDER U. S. GUARD 'Animals Jump From 32,000 to 600,000, Seals on the Pacific coast have multiplied many times since illegal poaching and indiscriminant killing of these valuable animals came in effect in 1012. Then only 32,000 seals remained in Alaskan waters, while | today some 600,000 are in existence there, according to Secretary of Commerce Hoover. Value of seals Is entirely for their fur. Sealskin is prized very highly for garments, and when the herd is low. the skins bring a very high price. * In 1912 President Roosevelt made the first step toward the preservation of these valuable animals by negotiating a treaty with England, Russia and Japan. Treaty stipulated that only a certain proportion of the seals are killed each year under direct supervision of the United States Government. At the last sale the Government realized the lowest price on the skins in years. It is expected higher prices will prevail in October. LA FOLLETTE WILL BE INDORSED (Continued FYom Page 1) union in each industry and abolition of unions of different branches of the same industry. Resolutions Disapproved The resolutions committee disapproved the resolution and substituted one favoring cooperation of all unions in the same industry. The action of the committee was upheld unanimously without discussion. Roscoe "Fatty” Arbuekle made a short talk before the convention shortly befobe noon adjournment. Philip La Follette, son of Senator La Follette, is expected to arrive from Chicago to speak on behalf of his father’s candidacy. Ho will find plenty of opposition, for although the La Follette forces apparently are in the majority there is a strong, determined and belligerent antl-La Follette force to be reckoned with. They showed their teeth for a few brief moments Wednesday when David Jones, Terre Haute, United Mine Workers of America, took the lead in an unsuccessful effort to prevent political affairs being discussed in the forum. T. N. Taylor, president of the federation,, and other administration leaders are favorable to an indorsement of La Follette and seem to have their forces well in hand. Antis, however, insist th 6 vote on the Jones motion did not present their full strength. McCulloch Meets Delegates McCulloch spent Wednesday afternoon and evening in South Bend and visited various hotels meeting many of the delegates. He left early today for Peru. Outside of the political issues the convention has been decidedly quiet. Other matters of importance have been considered and no differences of opinion have arisen on any vital point. Federation officers were doubtful whether the convention would be able to wind up its work before Saturday. $46,000,000 for Raods Connecticut figures the State has spent $46,000,000 for construction and maintenance of its roads since 1895.
