STOCKS MOVE FORWARD WITH EASIER MONEY Railroad Shares Again Touch New Mark on Current Advance. Average Stock Prices Average price of twenty industrial stocks for Wednesday, was 154.07. off .63. Average price, of twenty rails for Wednesday was 111.52, new niffh, up 1.23. Ru United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 16.—Stocks continued to move ahead confidently in the early dealings responding to the promise of gradually easier call money over the next six week and to the continuance of record business throughout the country as demonstrated by the rise in freight car loadings for the week ended December 5 to about 1,0p0,000 cars, the first time this level was surpassed in any December on record. With railroad shares again in new high ground for the current bull market, this class of stocks were still the principal favorites with the investment shares in the leadership. An urgent demand carried many representative issues to their best levels of the current advance, including Pennsylvania, Atchison, Union Pacific, Illinois Central and Chesapeake & Ohio, Rails swept ahead in aggressive style, receiving additional impetus from a drop in call money to 4% per cent aaginst a renewal rate of 5 per cent and a week’s high of 6V4 per cent. New highs were reached by a representative list of carrier issues. Rock Island continued in demand, jumping 2% to 56%, its best price since the re-organization. Kansas City Southern pushed into record territory at 50%, up 2 while Great Northern pfd. gained 114 to 81%, and Northwestern 1% to 70%. Industrials, however failed to emulate the buoyancy of the rails. United tSates Steel and other leaders of this group were under pressure and uffered- recessions from the previous close.

IClearing $l- - GRAINS GO INTO SINKING SPELL Wheat Leads Other Material to Lower Levels. Ru I nited Press CHICAGO, Dec. 16.—Grains went into a sinking spell in opening dealings on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Wheat was leader, registering loss of from 1% to 3 cents. Coarse grains sagged fractionally. Wheat offers increased. Weaker cables and an overbought condition instigated unrestrained profit taking. Bids showed a marked decrease. Commission houses sold corn. Oats followed other grains on a dull and neglected market. Provisions were strong on good short buying. Chicago Grain Table —Dec. 16— WHEAT— Prev. High. Low. 12:00 close.

Indianapolis Business News Trade Forecasts and Comment on Local Market Conditions.

By Rader Winget goods and supplies were with- ____ drawn Wednesday by the Central Indiana Rubber and Supply Company, according to A. G. Rud deli, president and general manager. This action was taken in anticipation of a further general price increase of 10 to 20 per cent, to be effective within the next few days. Values on all rubber material have gone up several hundred per cent since the British rubber monopoly forced a shortage of the crude product. Price advances have been made each quarter , and dealers are looking forward to another general Jump Jan. 1. ' Tire prices have been hit the hardest, according to local merchants. Material on hand has been cut down to the lowest point because of the low supply. Many tire dearers say an increase of 10 to 20 per cent will go into effect before the start of the new year. SHE wholesale drug companies are troubled with the rubber shortage and advances are freely predicted. Many lines of goods have advanced more than 100 per cent. “Pure gum goods have advanced more than any other line,” said M. L. Sutton of the Mooney-Mueller Ward wholesale drug company. “Rubber bands have jumped from 90 cents to $2.10 a pound since June of this year.” This boost on rubber bands totals Over 133 per cent. Flat goods have jumped about 30 per cent since June, 1925. Most of the.surgical line products, such as hot water bottles and syringes, are in the “flat goods’" class. The general market Is unsettled and price boosts are frequent. Dealers are buying light because of the low supplies and demand is heavy. The volume of business Is large in spite of the low supply and the net return In money Is better than for several years past, the wholesale supply say. — — j G. DUN and Company in comment on the rubber L__J • goods trade says, “The increased cost of the crude material has advanced the prices on nearly all staple rubber articles. There have been several mark ups in quotations during the year and a number of factories have announced higher prices for this coming year. “No immediate relief is anticipated, due to the pecular situation prevailing in the rubber-producing centers of the world. There Is no Indication of a let-up in the present favorable condition of the trade, at least for the first quarter of 1926.

In the Sugar Market * (By Thomson Sc McKinnon) NEW YORK. Dec. 16.—Labor troubles in Cuba have takep a serious turn and private cables report opening of hostilities. Crop estimates recently published hive not taken the labor question into consideration and a suspension of grinding for any length of time must naturally result jn sharply curtailed production. Himelys estimate of approximately 5.250.000 tons is based upon the amount of cane planted, without regard to weather changes so that In addition to the labor problem the question of weather conditions will be a determining factor. With the technical position of the futures market in a weakened position any sudden settlement of the labor controversy could bring about a sharp reaction.

Chief concern of Charles Stroud, 26, Brownsburg, Ind., and Forest Applegate, 23, Clermont, Ind., in Jail today as alleged filling station bandits, was over what their ’’home town folks would say.” Both hoped the story of their arrest would not be given publicity. They were arrested late Tuesday night by Lieutenant Ralph and emergency squad, investigating a hold-up at the Pure Oil Filling Station, Delaware and St. Clair Sts., where bandits obtained $75. The two confessed, detectives said, and also admitted they were the bandits who robbed the Western Oil Refining Station at Tenth and Dorman Sts., of $56 last Saturday night. Both said they had been out of work. HUFFMAN-STONE Bu United Press NEWARK, N.

THE IMMORTAL WHITB rpri HINCETON has had its Poes, 1 1)6 wltta - Bakers and other Lr.. 1 gridiron greats whose sterling deeds on the field of battle forever will hold a high spot in Old Naawu’s athletic history. All were names to conjure with In the realm of competition. But regardless of the esteem in which they were held, lt is doubtful if any holds a loftier place In Tiger memory than does the Immortal Sain White. White gained fame and glory back in 1911. He whipped both Harvard and Yale virtually ainglehanded that season, scooping up loose balls and turning them Into winning touohdomi.. In the tilt with the Crimson. Princeton had found the going pretty tough. In fact. Harvard ap peared well on its way to a acare when it succeeded in working down the ball close to the Tiger goaL But at this Juncture the Orange and Black braced, forcing Harvard to try for a field goal. The kick was blocked, however, and White, gathering up the bounding oval, sped ninety-five yards for the tally that sent the chesty Cambridge eleven to defeat. Two weeks later White practically duplicated the feat Yale, picking up a Bulldog fumble and legging lt sixty yards for the winning score. Recovering loose balls to win a pair of games over a span of two weeks Is a bit out of the ordinary In gridiron play. But to turn the trick twice In the two biggest games on the schedule Is something even more unusual.
