Average price of twenty rails for Tuesday was 111.22, up .02. Bu United Press NEW YORK, Feb. 28.—'Trade news over the two flay holiday was less uniformly favorable than recently. numerous mercantile and industrial surveys describing a slowing down in many lines owing to stormy weather conditions. This irregularity in general business continued to find reflection in stock prices in the early trading, which was characterized by mixed variations from last week’s close. However, price changes were mostly fractional and trading was light, owing to the delay experienced by many large operators in returning their holiday, due to poor train Service from northern and middle Western points. Stocks rallied around noon, notwithstanding further urgent offerings of special stocks. Following the wave of selling in the Pan-Americans as a result of the Mexican dispute, bearish attention was devoted to American Smelting, -which was depressed % points to 138. Trouble below the Rio Grande would involve large financial losses for American Smelting, but the stock was well bought on the reaction. General Railway Signal was in demand and spurted to 78%, up R from Saturday's close. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearings for today amounted to $3,613,000 and debits totaled $6,080,000.

TROOPS GUARD INDIANA MINES 1 < nut in ue<! From Page 1) which resumed operations following a suspension forced when union miners, 1,000 strong, attempted to unionize the workers. Reports that a delegation of Illinois tyiion miners was en route here to Interfere with the reopening of the nonunion shifts were unconfirmed. The mines in operation were the Crescent tend Sunnyside mines in Vanderburg County and the Sewanee, Saageant No. 2, Korfs and Menden mines in Warrick County. Major Harriman issued instruction to officers not to divulge any Information about plans or movements. A gas squad of Company D, 151st Infantry of Indianapolis, commanded by Capt. Atlee P. Slentz, and Company B, 151st Infantry, of Oreensjmrg, commanded by Capt. R. W. Reid, were In the armory hefe. Company A. 151st Infantry, of Evansville was dispatched to a local mine field to guard the airplane base. The planes were once sent out on observation duty. The soldiers moved In during the night and today, under orders of Adjt. Gen.. William 11. Kershner. Large Force Ready The adjutant general has 1,000 men of the 151st Infantry prepared to mobilize and move into the southern Indiana coal fields at a moment's notice. The small force of troops already here constituted a threat of the State authorities to union miners that should rioting, such as that in Warrick County last week in which several nonunion miners were clubbed and one stabbed, recur, instant action would follow. Both Evansville and Warrick County civil authorities expressed surprise when they learned troops were coming. It was stated here that Governor Jackson and the adjutant general decided to send the troops upon advice of Majs. D. A. Harriman and Robert Stillwell, Evansville, who have been official observers In the troubled district for some time. It was understood that a report that union miners from out of the State, presumably from Illinois and Kentucky, might march in precipitated the sudden movement of troops. Boonville and Evansville citizens were more surprised than the civil authorities, because quiet has prevailed for several days. Stories that citizens of Boonville were going about armed were denied. Chemicals on Hand Tlie troops are to he kept in and near the armory as long as the situation remains quiet. The Indianapolis “gas squad” Is equipped with rifles, tear gas bombs and other chemicals. The squad left Indianapolis at 2:10 a. m. on a special Pullman car. Company A. 152nd Infantry, the Evansville unit, was mobilized last night and the men spent the night at the armory. It was explained the infantry, for the time being, would police the armory and guard the planes. Included among Indianapolis men in ga quad here besides Captain Slentz, are; First IJetit. Ross Roberts, First Sergt. Donald It. Stewart, Sergt. Roy L. Bennett, Corp. John Ryholt, Corp. Paul B. Keller, First Class Private George Wise, and Privates William A. Hart, William W.
