Bu United Pr ess NEW YORK, July 6.—Wall Street came back from ho'iday in an optimistic frame of mind, due to the encouragement derived from the way the market resisted selling on Friday, necessitated by the failure of Dean & O’Nativia Cos. Announcement from Chicago this morning that the losses involved would be small was another cheering factor and the general list displayed a good tone at the opening. Mack Truck furnished the sensation at the opening by jumping four points on intimations that a run-in of shorts was planned which would carry the stock to around the 200 level. American Can, General Motors and other industrial leaders were also in active demand. With the t*-=ils generally higher, the whole arket acted in confident fashion.

GRAINS SHOW STRONGTONE Small Buying Caused by Liverpool’s Opening. Bv Cnited Press CHICAGO. July 6.—Wheat and oats started with a strong undertone on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Corn was weak. Better feeling in wheat reflected strong outside markets. Liverpool’s higher opening and a less bearish Canadian report, created small buying in the local exchange. Weather and crop news over the holiday were little changed. A tractional sag in corn caused by short selling was due to the trades belief in a better crop. Oaats advanced fractionally on short buying. Trade in provisions was slow, with prices nominally unchanged.

STEPHENSONTO BE TRIED FIRST (Continued From Page 1) was surprised at the ruling, and asked for time to figure out what motions he should file. Judge Hines recessed court until 2 p. m. Inman took particular offense at a statement of Charles E. Cox, assisting Prosecutor William H. Remy, that “all this is just the jockeying and juggling of the astute criminal lawyer to jeopardize the State’s case.” Defense Surprised Inman said: “If we were misled, as we have been, w r e want some time to figure out what motions to file. We are surprised at this reversal of the court’s decision. The State refers to ‘jockeying of the astute criminal lawyer.’ The State is the one that has been guilty of jockeying for position.” Judge Hines then took up the debate, and denied that he had reversed any -decisions. He said he felt he had been somewhat imposed on by both State and defense attorneys. He said: "I came here this morning ready for the trial of Earl Gentry. This is the first time the State ever made a motion to determine the order of the trial. It is the first time I have had a chance to pass on it.” Out of the maze of teochnicalities, the judge finally decided that all three of the defendants are asking trial this term; that despite all the motions and orations, the case now has simmered down to the motion of the State to try Stephenson first. The judge sustained the position of the State that it has the right to elect who should be tried first. Gentry Forgotten Gentry's trial was forgotten in the rush of oratory. Gentry sat in the courtroom, patiently awaiting the outcome of the involved legal arguments, and was taken back to jail at 11 a. m., although the defense attorneys demanded immediate trial for him. The defense objected to all the rulings. It was expected that the defense will present a motion that Gentry be let to bail, in the near future. In contrast to the bail hearing several weeks ago, when the courtroom was crowded, fewer than fifty persons were present this morning. Motion Filed Motion to try Stephenson first followed a formal statement read to the court by Prosecutor Remy. The motion, which was signed by Justin Roberts, Hamilton county prosecutor, was based on three grounds: (1) It would be prejudicial to the State's case to try either off the other defendants before Stephenson. (2) It would materially handicap the State in presenting its case, to try Klinck or Gentry before Stephenson. (3) Under the theory of the State, Gentry and Klinck were mere “hirelings” of Stephenson and but did his bidding. Arguments on this question followed very closely along the lines of those of last week, the State insisting it had the right to fix the order of the defendants, and the defense claiming that it was a matter within the discretion of the court, and that under the records Gentry should be tried today. Holmes Answered In answer to a question by Ira M. Holmes of the defense, as to whether the State had not said it was ready to go to trial at any time on any of the defendants. Remy said: “Yes, we are ready to go to trial now. We are ready to go to trial now and will try them in one-two-three order, but we Insist on naming the order.” Remy's statement, in which he said that all court precedents gave the State the right to pick the order in which defendants are to be tried, contained strong language, to which the defense took violent exception. At the conclusion of the statement, Inman was on his feet instantly, shouting at the top of his voice. “This certainly Is the most astounding proposition from a lawyer who assumes to know the eli- , mentary principles of law,” he said. He declared the Statement was solely to influence public opinion through the press. Surrender to Mob ‘The State wants to try these men. regardless of the evidence,” he said. “This court must stand by Its legal ruling made by it, or surrender to the mob." At this point. Attorney Cox said: “There are attorneys here, standing by Mr. Remy. Why blame it all on him?” Inman retorted: "But they do not add much support to the prosecution. “Relying on the rule of this court, we came here today to try Earl Gentry. Are we to have no further legal rights in this case? We make a legal demand on behalf of Earl Gentry, who has been in Jail three months and Is now demanding Immediate trial, that If the State is not ready to try him, that they nolle, and discharge him." Inman closed with a motion to strike out Remy's statement as immaterial, irrelevant and “absolutely scandalous.” Remy’s Argument Remy argued that the defense is trying to obtain, by “indirection and legal jockeying, what the law does not permit to be done directly.” “If this matter is in the discretion of the court, then never before has the court ridden over the prosecuting attorney in selecting the order of trial for defendants,” he said. “If the court does override him it will be, so far as we know, the first time this has happened in Indiana.” Judge Hines ruled that this was the first time that the records has been put in a position where this matter could be considered by the court. Nothing Before Court He said that the argument on the question, which took three daye last week, had been useless, as there was nothing before the cflurt officially, and under the conditions, he had selected Gentry for trial as the other two defendants had filed motions for separate trial, thus deferring their cases. The State then asked a brief re cess and returned with a formal motion demanding that Stephenson be placed on trial. Arguments then were taken up on this question, following which Judge Hlnee ru^d.

TWO SOUGHT IN EFFORT TO SOLVE DEATH Detectives Question One About Mrs. Dean as Funeral Is Held. While funeral services were being conducted for Mrs. Edith Dean, 27, 522 N. New Jersey St.. Marion Apts., at the home of her parents at Linton, Ind., today, detectives continued their search for two men who might know how she got on the Nickel Plate railroad tracks near Sixty-Second St. and the Allison vllle Rd., last Thursday night. Detectives Roach and Fossati talked to the man who told of an encounter with a woman in an auto Friday morning near the scene of Mrs. Dean’s death. The car was of a different make than Mrs. Dean's, he said. A train crew found Mrs. Dean fatally injured early Friday morning and rushed her to a hospital at Nobles vllle, Ind., but she was unable to give a coherent statement before she died an hour later. Two Released Detective Inspector Jerry Kinney, who Is assisting Sheriff Omer Hawkins In the Investigation, said two men who had been with Mrs. Dean at a camp on White River earlier Thursday evening, were released when every part of their story was verified by Detectives Roache and Fossatti. Officers also are searching for two other men acquaintances. One of these is thought to be the man who was living at Mrs. Dean’s apartment. Police Theory Given Detectives Roach and Fossati. who visited the scene where the body was found, said they found hair caught in the ties and feel that Mrs. Dean was struck by a train. It is thought she had been drinking and staggered onto the tracks and was struck, police said, although Ralph H. Chapi lan. Rose Garden tea garden proprietor, catled Sheriff Hawkins early Friday morning when he heard a woman screaming for help. The calls came from the same direction as that in which Mrs. Dean’# body was found.

AMERICAN SHIPS THRIVE DESPITE BAN OF LIQUOR United States Passenger Liners Carrying More Than Ever Before. Times Washlnotnn Bureau. J3H \cw York Arenua. WASHINGTON, July The fact that liquor is not served on passenger ships flying the Sars and Stripes no longer is handicapping government owned vessels, according to F. M. Darr, manager of the passenger department of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. The six United States liners in ths trano-Atlantic services are doing the biggest business this summer in the history of government operation. Americans apparently are vacationing in Europe in arger numbers than ever before and more of them are patronizing \merican ships. “The Levlath..n is doing exceptionally well,” Darr said. “It broke all of its records on its last sailing, June 13, when it carried 2,149 passengers. The July 4 passenger list will be much heavier. Thlrd-claso long ago was completely sold for this trip and we are now turning down first-class passengers.” The George Washington. President Harding and Piealdent Roosevelt, other government-owned firstclass ships, also are carrying record breaking passenger lists. The George Washington on July 8, will be filled to capacity, Darr announced. The America and the Republic, the two smaller cabin ships, have been sailing with capacity lists all summer. Thousands of school teachers and students are taking advantage of summer bargain rates on these vessels. The United States lines alao operate a fleet of four passenger veßaela to the east coast of South America and five to the Orient from Seattle. Although this la not the season for Pacific and South Atlantic travel, passenger t-aflc on these lines is heavier than last summer.

JOKES PASS AS SALES FORMULA Appeal to Emotions Is New Requisite. Bu Times Special CHICAGO, July The old dayi of learning to sell goods by working In the wholesale house from doorboy up to salesman may not be gone, but they are rapidly disappearing. Professor A. J. Snow of Northwestern University is of the opinion that selling merchandise successfully year after year seldom results from the use of cut and dried methods, but by an appeal to the emotions and feelings. It takes a keener student of human nature these days to sell something than It did a decade ago when the traveling salesman's blble was a Joke book. "It has been discovered,’ says the professor, “that It is impossible to make a great deal of headway In the selling field by the use of a cut and dried formula. The salesman must regard each buyer as au individual and appeal to hla deaires, wants. Ideals, emotions and feel.ngs. “Psychologists, In analyzing sales, have discovered that men do not sell merchandise because of an appeal to the reason of the buyer, but most of the time, because of an appeal to his emotions and feelings. “They have discovered that in moat transactions the appeal to tradition, custom, prejudice, love for family, self-admiration. Jealousy and such as that, close the sale. The salesman who uses ‘sales talks' in his attempt to sell because they ere convincing to him, has profited 11'tie hy modern psychology."
