Ry United Press NEW YORK, July 16.—Momentum greeted by Wednesday's substantial advalncei which carried industrials to new record levels at 133.40 up nearly eight points from the high reached on last winter’s upswing resulted in further gains in early dealings. American Can spurted 2 % to 202 bettering its previous record high while Stel common forged into now higha for the present move at 118 *4. Bethlehem also reached best levels of the current advance at 42% wliils North American spurted 114 to 69, an unprecedented price for the present shares. With money easier and general business improving, public demand for Stocks was the heaviest for several months, creating a buoyant tone in the whole market. With leaders of the advance maintaining a buoyant tone the whole market continued strong about noon and further advances occurred in various groups. Savage Arms was a feature of special strength among industrial specialities advancing sharply to 54% against a low of 48% in the preceding session. One large trader has been operating on the short side of Savage through five or sit houses and the recent decline of the stock attracted ,a miscellaneous bear feeling.

TRADE REVIEWS SAY
By Hardware Age Rubber products distributed through hardware channels are being advanced from 10 to 15 per cent. This includes tires, sheeting, tubing, mats, etc. Further advances may be expected. This change has been necessary due to the fact that crude rubber has advanced about 88 per cent in recent weeks. Brass and bright wood screws have declined 10 per cent in most markets. Current hardware sales are limited in staple items. There is a fair fill-in demand for spring and summer goods in the wholesale markets. Jobbers are receiving encouraging futures in practically all centers. These call for August and September deliveries. Suburban trade is better than city trade among retailers. Rural sections send in the best reports of these three groups.
In the Sugar Market
(By The indifferent attitude of holders of Cuban raws rather than the imexepectd demand for refined from abroad ha* changed the complexion of the sugar market. With most ot the Philliplne and Porto Rican crops disposed of. Cuban sugars will meet less competition for the next two months. Present ievls are sufficiently low to attract Investment buying on the theory that only a limited fall in values Is possible whereas there is unlimited room for an advar.ce. particularly so If the present growing' crop fails to come up to exxpectatlons. 39 Legal Notices CITY ADVERTISEMENT department - oF _ public WORKS OFFICE OF THE BOARD Indianapolis.

Bn United Press CHICAGO, July 16.—A1l grains closed higher on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Wheat led and carried other grains with It. Most wheat strength came late in the session. A two-sided market prevailed nearly all of the time. Those* who predicted relief from cooler temperatures over the spring growing country sold freely. In 'the last few hours fears of a recurrence of hot weather brought in short support that quickly rallied prices to a higher finish. Buying brought on by the reaction in wheat and bullish crop news sent corn soaring. f Oatas attracted little attention and were higher only in sympathy with other grains. Heavy short covering and a bullish Government pig survey rallied lard. Ribs were nominally unchanged.

CRISIS REACHED IN SCOPES CASE (Continued From Pace 1) would have the opening and elos inp arffument on the question and the defense seekinß the same advantage for themselves. lawyers Cautioned Judge Raulston had to caution the attorneys not to fight among themselves, but to address all remarks to him. Prosecuting Attorney Stewart presented to the court a motion to exclude the scientific testimony on the ground that under the interpretation of the wording of the act, it would be entirely incompetent. Dudley F. Malone of the defense followed Stewart to insist that the agreement entered into by the two staffc Friday to take up the question of scientific testimony out of order be adhered to.
Bryan ,Jr. t Speaks William Jennings Bryan Jr., opened argument for the prosecution. “On your honor’s ruling will determine whether this case will be an orderly case, or whether it will degenerate into a debate on whether evolution conflicts with the Bible, - ' said young Bryan. “This expert evidence, as being offered on evolution, is challenged by the State as Incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial. “I have heard many harsh things said about expert witnesses. Even my friend Darrow, in the Loeb trial referred to an expert witness as ‘a purveyor of perjury-' I don't think I ha*)© heard anything stronger than that. | “Testimony Dangerous” “This kfnd of testimony has always been regarded by conservative Jurors with great disfavor.” “ ‘The danger of such testimony is that jurors may substitute such opinions for their own,’ ” young Bryan read from one of the precedents. W. J. Bryan, Sr., moved out from the prosecution table and leaned forward In his chair, listening intently to his son, and fanning himself with rapid strokes. The trial got down to “brass tacks” yesterday, after five days of wrangling, confusion and delay. First Witnesses Called Judge Raulston's ruling on the defense's motion to quash was announced, holding the anti-evolution law constitutional. Scopes pleaded not guilty, the jury was sworn, the defense's demurrer was overruled, the prosecution put on four witnesses and rested its case and the defense put the first of its scientific witnesses on. Darrow called Professor Mitcalfe, front rank zoologist, to tho stand to explain evolution to the jury. Immediate objection was made by the prosecution to the introduction of Metcalf's or any other scientist’s evidence. Darrow asked that the matter be argued and the Judge consented. Prosecution Surprised “I want all the light I can get on the subject, gentlemen,” said Judge Raulston, “because the matter is extremely important and the most difficult upon which I will have to rule.” The defense sprang a surprise on the prosecution by demanding that proof be given by them regarding “what Is the Bible.” Stewart introduced in evidence a copy of the King James version with which to prove that Scopes taught theories contrary to the Bible's account of the creation of tnaij. The defense strongly objected, saying there were literally scores of differ ent versions and the State would have to establish exactly what is the Bible. More will be heard on this question later, if the scientific testimony is admitted. ELECTRICIAN APPOINTED Statehouse Committee Approves Indianapolis Man.

Justice Thompson opined the Jury would fix the fine at about $5, if the boys are found guiitj. Here is tho story Miss McKay will tell the Jory: “I and Irent* Bailey, 13, and Irene Inlow, 14, wanted to go swimming last Thursday so we put on our bathing suits and started foY Cold Springs, a quarter of a mile west of town,” she said. “When we saw a bunch of fellows were swimming in their birthday clothes df course we did not go any farther, but asked the boys to get out so we could bathe. We went on down the creek to give them a chance to get out. Those Boys! “At first they said ‘we won't do it, and you can't make us get out.' But finally they came out and dressed. They used profane language several times. i “We did not mean to run. the boys away, but I do think they should arrange to let us swim part of the time. I have to swim enough to complete my gymnasium credit at Indiana University or I will flunk. “It Is not true that the men have been using the hole for fifty years. Girls had been there before, and I don’t see why it wasn't all right. “Two of the boys who had on overalls stayed In the creek, but the others played on the bank and annoyed us. They took Irene Bailey’s clothes away, and threw my shoes into a tree top. Harold McDonald. 14, got them down for me. He and little Jimmy Miller swam with us. Owner For Girls “Willis Toothman, who owns land along Coo no Creek, agreed with me something should be done, so I swore out the affidavit. Mr. Toothman said he wanted the boys to wear suits so girls can swim. “I didn’t realize I was getting Into all this mess, though. I have £>een thinking about it so much I dream at nights.” When arraigned last Monday the boys pleaded not guilty. E. W. McDaniels and Walter Myers, Shelbyvllle attorneys, will represent the defendants. Myers said the case would be appealed if it went against them.
