Average Stock Prices

Average price of twenty industrial stocks for Tuesday was 141.08. up .69 Average price of twenty rail stocks for Tuesday was 105.04. up .63. Bu United PresK NEW YORK, April 6.—Gratification over the half billion decrease in b/okera.ge loans since Feb. 27, set forth in stock exchange figures was reflected in further improvement in the general list in early trading. Mack truck moved up 1% to 111%, Allied Chemical 1% to 144%; General Electric % to 307%; General Motors, % to 120%, and C. & O. % to 123%. Trading proceeded in the late morning on the smallest volume of dealings witnessed in many weeks. Price changes in the main body of stocks were extremely narrow, causing speculative interests to converge almost wholly on special movements. Century Ribbon was heavily sold, dropping 1% points to 14, reflecting suspension of dividend payments hitherto maintained at a $2 annual rate. But this was about the only stock which was under pressure, the general list displaying a quiet steadiness.

GRAIN PRICES START HIGHER Inclement Weather Delays Wheat Planting. f>u United Press CHICAGO, April 6.—Grain prices opened higher on the Chicago Board of Trade today. The higher wheat opening from % in July to 1 cent in May old. This was not so much a reflection of today’s higher foreign markets as some were wont to believe, as to the materially low stocks of contract wheat in Chicago. More bullish news also was added to the market in the form of reports that seeding of spring wheat throughout the Northwest had been delayed as much as three weeks by the inclement weather. With the smallest lots of contract wheat in stock here for many years the opinion prevails that the gains at. today's opening will be maintained for some time. Corn opened irregular, being fractionally higher in the May and July deliveries, but ‘,4 off in the September. Oats opened fractionally higher in all deliveries. The inclement weather and improved export demand has apparently given this grain the necessary impetus to get out of the rut in which it has been for some time. Provisions opened lower.

April G.—The gross income of the Pennsylvania Railroad for the year ending Dec. 31, amounted to $157,389,497.67, according to the seventy-ninth annual report from the general offices, Broad Street Station, Philadelphia. The increase in the gross income over 1924 was $27,580,663.44. Freight and express revenues increased, while passenger revenues decreased, principally because of bus competition, the report says. The Pennsylvania anthracite strike did not decrease the revenue of the company, because of the increased traffic in bituminous coal. The net income for the year was $62,220,324.26, an increase of $24,085,647.27, or 63 per cent, ompared with 1924, against whiciv were charged appropriations to the sinking and other reserve funds and the usual dividends of 6 per cent on the capital stock. Road and equipment improve)ments included installation of telephone equipment on the Logansport division and a double-tracking of a large section to take care of expanding traffic.

GRAVE RECEIVES CHAPMAN BODY (Continued From Page 1) hospital, when Judge Groehl, with tears streaming down his faace, broke the nows to the bandit that the pardon board had denied him clemency. The condemned man did not flinch.’ Perspiration stood out on hi* pale, high forehead, the forehead of a scholar, behind winch lurked the brain of the outlaw. He mopped his face with a white handkerchief. “I didn't expect to gain anything for myself by my appeal to the board of pardons,’’ he said, 110 was stoical, almost indifferent. Not Afraid “I am not afraid to die.” Chapman, not faltering, followed the guard to the cold death-house. He held his face close to the bars while an officer outside struck a match from which the prisoner lighted his cigaret. Chapman puffed silently and reclined upon a couch — as if to rest for his journey into eternity. Father Michael J. Barry came to the cell to offer onj-e again the spiritual consolation which Chapman had so often refused. With death hut a few brief hours away, he still received the priest as a friend but rejected the solace of the church. A guard came with dinner —pork chops, fried potatoes and coffee. Chapman ate in silence. Perhaps a little of the edge was gone from his appetite. The Zero Hour On through the evening the hours went—B o’clock, 9 o’clock, 10 o’clock; and two hours left. Then the clock struck 11, and finally 12. At that moment a guard came into the cell. Chapman turned to him. The long, slim hands with their busy fingers were tied. He walked In silence and with perhaps a defiant leer on his face to the deathhouse. There a group of officials awaited —newspaper men and others —witnesses the State requires when it enforces the Mosaic law of a life for a life. Chapmqn looked curiously over the room, glancing at the faces in front of him and then for a moment at the noose which dangled from the ceiling above—langled almost as if reaching for him. He was led to a spot beneath the noose. Tlie brillance of tlic lights heightened the prison pallor and (he spots of red in his cheeks. His lips were tightly clenched. Not a word did he utter. A guard beside him reached up to place the hood. Chapman glanced upward—his last sight of earth, that of a death house celling. The hood dropped. A Cough

Someone coughed, a dry cough—the last thing Chapman heard on earth. Then there was silence. The guard nodded to Warden H. Iv. W. Scott. The nod meant all was ready to end the life of Gerald Chapman. The priest raised his hand. “May the Isird have mercy on Ills soul," he intoned. And hardly had the last word been said when Warden Seott shuffled his foot. The ropes rushed over pulleys. Chapman’s body roared high in the air and dropped with a sickening thud—writhing in agony. Life Counted Out Quickly two doctors stepped to his side, watches in hand. One gi-asped Chapman's wrist. The other bared the breast to the stethoscope. Minute after minute they stood there —counting the seconds it took tlie mortal body to cast off life. Slower and slower grew the pulse —sixty, fifty, forty beats to the minute. And finally it faded away. “I pronounce this man deau,” announced the chief physician. The soul of Gerald Chapman was gone, and only the body was left. SHEAN’S CASE NEXT Man Who Sent Chapman to Death Awaits Trial. Bu United Press HARTFORD, Conn., April 6. With Gerald Chapman dead, the disposition of the case of Walter Shean is the next problem for the Hartford prosecutor’s office. % Shean, the scapegoat son of a well-to-do family, was with Chapman the night that Patrolman James Skelly was killed in New Britain. He was the man who told the officers that Chapman was the murderer and the testimony was the mainstay of the State’s case against the bandit. But Shean himself is still being held in jail here, accused of complicity in the robbery and murder. While Chapman was being hanged Shean remained in a cell not far away.

He asked Andrews how. 111 a freecountry, he could |>eriuit employes to assume such arbitrary authority. No Deities “There are no deities here, either at the head of this bureau or anywhere along the line,” Reed snapped.

He said that if the unit did not wish to give the real reason for discharging, it could find some other reason. “You could find a reason to tire me before night,” Andrews said. “I certainly could,” Reed snapped. Because of pressure of the Brook-hart-Steck case In the Senate, committee abandoned its aftemooß session and adjourned at noon until tomorrow. Andrews admitted that twenty workers in the prohibition unit were barred because of false statements; 121 were excluded for extortion, bribery and solicitation of money; eighty for filing false expense accounts; sixty-ono for collusion and conspiracy.
