Average Stock Prices
Average price of twenty industrial stocks for Thursday, Aug. 6, was 135.Jit, off .65. Average price of twenty rails for Thursday. Aug. 6, was 100.02. up .4b. Bu United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 6—Wednesday’s brisk forward movement in the standard rails carried the average for this class of stocks to 100.02, anew high on the current advance ar.d less than a point away from the year’s high established in March. This activity in the rails was based on the extra ordinary showing made by the class one roads in June. Further fractional gains were scored by New York Central and other railroad leaders in the early dealings, while the public utilities continued to move ahead under the leadership of Montana power which reached anew high at 97%. The standard industrial leaders also showed a better tone and were generally fractionally higher. When call money renewed at 4% r cent, reports were started that e directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York planned an increase in the re-discount rate at this afternoon’s meeting. But it was found difficult to gain credence for these rumors in view of the reduction in the Bank of England rate to 4% per cent, compared with the 5 per cent rate previously in effect. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearings for Thursday, Aug. 6. amounted to $2,744,000. Bank debits for Thursday, Aug. 6. were $5,623,000.

TRADE REVIEWS SAY
YORK, Aug. 6.—A consistWt, though not unusually active, demand for hardware is indicated by reports from the various market centers, says Hardware Age in its weekly market summary. The demand is particularly from the rural and outlying districts, and orders for the most part are from retailers desirous of rounding out depleted stocks. Collections are generally favorable, and indicative of the basically healthy business condition prevailing throughout the country. That the outlook is entirely favorable is also indicated by the encouraging crop outlook. OFFICIAL FATALLY SHOT Janitor Kills Light Company Treasurer During Dispute.

GRAIN FUTURES FINISH LOWER Liquidation Develops After Price Swings. Bu Vnited Press CHICAGO, Aug. 6.—Grain futures finished fractionally lower on the board of trade today. Price swings were narrow 7. Definite weakness in wheat came late. After numerous irregular price swings, persistent liquidating developed. Bears were induced to unload by visitation of beneficial rains over the Canadian spring belt. The selling precluded efforts of strong commission houses to absorb offers. The lighter country movement also played a prominent part in the advance. Corn was inclined to follow wheat. Coupled with the fact that the promised bumper crop yield has been so well advertised was the precipitation in southwestern dry territory. Both conditions served to discourage buyers. Oats trade was narrow. The closing prices showed fractional losses. Provisions were higher. Chicago Grain Table —Aug. 6 WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, dose.

HOGUE WIELDS SCISSORS UPON CITY’S BUDGET Says 58-Cent Levy Will Be Enough for General Because of the increased property valuation Joseph L. Hogue, city controller, said today he believed a 58cent tax levy in the general fund would afford enough revenue for city departments during 1926. Meanwhile, Hogue is busy slicing the budget, devoting special attention to the general fund. He eliminated $12,000 from the labor fund of the street cleaning department which has been sliced $310,684.06. Total reductions of all departments are $1,560,000, which will produce a levy of about SI.OB, as opposed to $1,055 for 1925. The city’s income from all sources for the general fund will be $4,276,000. Expenditures, deducting recent cuts, will be $4,388,076.67. However, the surplus of more than SIOO,000 expected in the treasury will equalize the apparent shortage, according to Hogue. The general fund will receive the following revenues: Tax levy, $3,770,000; licenses, $400,000; poll, $25,000, and dog taxes, etc., SBI,OOO, Hogue predicted.
