In the Sugar Market

By Thompson & McKinnon The latest reduction in refined sugar has failed to increase demand to any extent. Practically no forward business is developing-, the trade continuing- to make new purchases for immediate requirements only. Favorable weather for growing crops is reported from both Europe and Cuba. Labor troubles abroad also having an influence .In restricting new buying.

This compares with 406 defaults last week and 399 a year ago. The increase in number this week over the number last week is in the Eaat and on the Pacific Coast. Os this week’s failures, 244 had liabilities of more than $5,000 in each case, which is equivalent to 57.2 per cent of the aggregate number. Last week, when such defaults numbered 236, the ratio to the total was 58.1 per cent, while the 200 failures for more than $5,000 in each instance a year ago represented 50.1 per cent of the total number. In contrast to the increase last week, Canadian failures this week show a decrease, numbering only twenty-seven.

Su United Press CHICAGO, July 28.— Wheat and corn futures made good net gains in Board of Trade transactions today. Oats held firm. Return of speculative interest, to wheat was inspired by bull comment from the northwest an 1 a slackening in winter wheat movement. Shorts began covering on the advance. They appeared disappoined at the market’s stubbornness. Rapidly diminishing stocks and greatly improved cash business boosted corn. Views taken by the corps of experts were favorable to lower prices. Oats maintained stubborness and firmed up at virtually unchanged prices. Provisions were steady. Selling by principal longs obliterated higher price tendencies.

SCHMIDT TALKS COURT ACTION (Continued From Tage 1) and High School Rd., huildt of crushed stone, was “in a deplorable condition.” He waited several hourr but failed to see McClosKey. “This stretch of highway is one of the finest in Indiana,” Connell said. “It’s in perfect condition today.” Connell said that if McCloskey was quoted correctly, it meant he was only a “rubbr stamp for the gravel men.” Injunction Possible Arthur Robinson, attorney, told Schmidt today he had authority to enjoin the State Highway Commission from enforcing its edict of a cheap gravel base for Marion county concrete roads in the law that gives the chief engineer for the commission the sole right to rule on specifications. Gray, who stood by .Schmidt in his contentions that high grade gravel or crushed stone should be used, was overruled by the commission. “Gray is an expert,” Schmidt said. "The commissioners are not. “We’re going to have good roads in this county. We are not going to let any concern furnish us dirty or inferior material for our roads. The public is entitled to the best roads that can be built with the least money.” Rather than surrender their position Schmidt intimated he would take his fight to the courts. Charges Conspiracy Schmidt also charged a conspiracy existed between Earl Crawford, John D. Williams, commission director, John J. Brown, chairman of the State tax board, and S. C. Hayden, secretary of the Indiana Sand and Gravel Company to defeat his specifications. Schmidt stated as yet no roads have been built in the county under his direction. Two however, are under construction —Brill St. Rd. and the MacGregor Rd. in Beech Grove. It was learned that Gray has written three different letters of resignation and has torn up each one Action of the commission in going over hia head to disprove Schmidt's plans, is irking to him. it is believed. John D. Williams, commission director, refused to say whether or not Gray would remain as chief engineer. Williams and George D. Hershmanr. of Crown Point, a commissioner nferred with Governor Jack Although both refused to dis- . the question, it is believed that ae conference was held concerning the expected withdrawal of Gray. Til us Candidate In event of his resignation, William J. Titus, now State highway bridge engineer, is a candidate to succeed him. Titus is known as one of the best bridge engineers in the country. He has been employed by the State since the World War. Another development was the announcement of McCloskey, also lined up against Schmidt, that he would act to strike the names of several county road inspectors from the county pay roll. “It looks to me that these men were Just appinted by the county engineer without any thought of the county commissioners,” McClosky said. “I believe all roads should be inspected by State men.” He said he was not consulted over the appointment of the men. McCloskey characterized the present controversy as a fight between gravel and crushed stone interests and said county commissioners should take some action one way or the other. Other Two for Schmidt While McCloskey Insists the highway commission’s specifications are the hotter and should do upheld, Schmidt says he has the backing of John Kitley and Charles O. Sutton, other county commissioners. Schmidt’s specifications call for the use of crushed stone or gravel In which all but 5 per cent of the sand has been removed. There must not be more than 30 per cent of grit or material belo%v a half Inch In size. The highway commission's spe cifications do not exclude crushed stone. Whether stone or gravel is used depends upon the relative cost and the pj-oximlty of the basic material supply. In the meantime the tax board hejd under advisement remoo-

strances against two more Marion County roads proppsed to be constructed under the Schmidt specifications. Arthur R. Robinson, Schmidt’s attorney, has asked the tax board to he alio.veJ to appear before it and present a plea that the roads should not be disapproved. It was intimated his request would be granted. The two roads under consideration, the Kassebaum and the Duvall loads, form a continuation of College Avy to the Marion-Hamilton County line. Recently the tax board disapproved bond issues on the same roads, explaining the rpecifications practically excluded the use of gravel; UNION OFFICERS ARE UNOPPOSED Central Labor Officials to Be Elected Aug. 17.
