BULLISH TRADE PS FAILS TO EXCfTESTOCKS Market Shows Disposition to Await Maine Election Reports, Average Stock Prices Average price of twenty industrial stocks was 100.76. off .03. Average price of twenty rails was 88.78. off .12. Average price of forty'bonds was 90.36, up .01. By United Preaa NEW YORK. Sept. B.—Trade developments over the week-end were almost uniformly bullish. Steel operations in the Youngstown district were reported as the best in many months, with the Ingot output at 75 per cent of capacity. Julius Kayser silk mills resumed at full capacity after the annual vacation closing, showing that an ample fall demand, was in prospect in merchandising ifnes. But with the Maine elections in progress, stocks showed a disposition to adopt a waiting attitude in the early dealings. Changes from last week's close in the active Issues were mostly confined to fractions and were about divided between advances and re<^P<ons.

SHght Rally Ensues Belling of an urgent character subsided Jn the late morning and a Blight rally ensued in some of the Stocks, under pressure. American Woolen came back to 54, up 2% from the low of the move and recoveries averaging a point took place in Can, Cast Iron Pipe and ether speculative favorites. Coea-Cloa broke to 69, off 4 points from the previous close. The drop gave rlße to gossip that the Guaranty Trust Company was about to announce the severance of financial relations with the company. How ridiculous this rumor was may be gleaned from the fact that it had its origin in the expiration of CocaCola's voting trust agreement with the Guaranty on Tuesday. This simply means that hereafter the regular certificates for the common will be traded in instead of the voting trust certificates.
LOWER TREND IN' •WHEATTRADING Grain Futures Off Despite Final Rally, By United Fret a CHICAGO, Sppt. B,—Grain futures elosed generally lower on the Chicago Board of Trade Monday, despite a rally which finally brought values within a fraction of paralleling the open market. Wheat’s final spurt of buying was attributed to development of fair volume of export business late and advices from abroad that poor yields are Increasing due to extremely poor weather. Corn went into a fair rally after the mid-day dip and managed to recover all but a small fraction of the day’s losses for new crop deliveries. Spot corn was up at the finish on increased cash business. Oats finished dull and lower, despite further damage to Canadian crops by frost. Provisions eased off with grains and realising by earlier buyers. Chicago Grain Table —Sept. 8— WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, close.

HIBBEN LIKENS' SOVIET VIEWS TO THOSE OF HOOVER Tells Board He Has Said Nothing More Than Secretary, ' By United Free* NEW YORK, Sept. B.—ln expressing his opinion in the matter of the United States recognition of the present Russian government, Captain Hibben merely availed himself of a Constitutional privilege, the officer said today before the board of reserve officers inquiring into his fitness to retain a commission in the reserve corps. I “I have done nothing with regard | to Russia .that Herbert Hoover, Sec- ! ret ary of Commerce, baa not done, land I have said nothing that Colonel Haskq/1, head of the Russian relief, has not said." Hibben told the board. Hibben charged that because of his stand toward soviet Russia he had ■ been spied upon to such an extent ; even letters from his wife were ; opened. His “persecution," Hibben : said, had impaired his earnings as ia writer, as editors frequently turned down his articles because they had heard intimations he was a radical. Col. John J. Bradley, Hibben’s counsel, said he expects to complete the defense case before adjournment today. Both sides will then sum up and the board will submit its rejgirts later to Major General Bullard, commanding the 2(1 Army Corps COTTON ESTIMATE IN EXCESS OF LAST YEAR By United Fn a* WASHINGTON, Sept.

WHEELER REPLIES TO ATTACK ON COURTCRITICISM Senator Hurls Answer to President Coolidge in Speech, By PAUL R. MALLON United Preaa Correspondent | ALBANY, N. Y., Sept. 6. —Senator i Burton K. Wheeler flung back his answer today to charges of President Coolidge that the progressives are tampering with the constitutional power of the courts. Federal courts especially, he declared, have flagrantly abused their authority and ignored the Constintu- ; tion. i “Unjustly they crushed down the j constitutional rights of the workingmen by issuing injunctions restrainj ing them from doing what the law I permits them to do,” the independent vice presidentlaT-candidate said. ‘'lnstead of honoring the sacred heritage handed down to them by the foundI ers of our Government they have , abused their power." ' Opening his tour through upper j New York State, Wheeler leveled i his biggest gun at the, allegations j set up by President Coolidge'in BalI timore. The chief executive at that time said the attack of the progres i sives against the courts would break down reverence for American insti- : tutions. i “Campaign orators are trying to i tell you that it is niv desire to tear down the Constitution,” Wheeler told his audience. “These same ortors have the duty in this campaign to defend ethers who have been guikv of the most flagrant violations or the spirit end letter of the Constitution—Fall, Doheny, Daugherty, Sinclair, et al.” Wheeler referred to Republican vice presidential nominee Dawes as "that brave and haughty general | who founded a vicious organization ! to destroy the Constitutional rights | of the working men'’ HITS OUT AGAIN Censures Coolidge for Oil Corruption. TROY, N. Y„ Sept. B.—President Coolidge must accpet responsibility for the admitted mistakes of the j Republican administartion. Senator ! Burton K. Wheeler, independent vice presidential candidate, told a gathering of workers in “collar factory row” here today. Wheeler charged the administration with being more "viciously” corrupt, inefficient and inadequate than any big government in history.” “Mr. Coolidge, while he was vice president, sat in the Senate where all these things were being discussed and knew of the common reports of corruption that were circulated all over the United States. “ He didn’t oust Attorney General Navy Denby until an aroused public opinion forced him to do so. By his inaction he defended these men. ‘And now he permits to remain in office the same subordinates of these men that they may continue to sell away your property and betray your Government.”
