July 13.—Stock engaged in a further broad demonstration of strength in which the high grade seasoned issued of tth the railroad and industrial departments took the leading part. Despite the substantial charflcter of the gains over the last six weeks, buying power appeared unimpaired and increasing confidence was imparted to speculative sentiment by the unhesitating fashion in which large blocks of high priced stocks were taken at rapidly rising prices. Standard dividend rails, including Atchison, New York Central, C. & 'O., Canadian Pacific and B. & 0., continued their upward climb. General Motors made a furthCT vigorous response to its current prosperity by establishing a fresh, record high for the existing shares while new highs on the recovery from the March break were reached by Dupont, General Electric and Cast Iron Pipe. Metal shares were stimulated by stiffening lead prices while Unted States Steel was on its best behavior for several days.

In the Sugar Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. July 13. —Both raw and refined sugar markets are passim? through a temporary period of dullness and there kis at the moment practically no incentive I for bidding up prices. In futures, which r became steadier Monday, there is reported so be a considerable number of buying orders. particularly in the distant months, just under the market. Pending some fresh development to stimulate the price movement, however. I continue of opinion that those who buv the far months at the present very low prices will be rewarded later on.

CHICAGO BOARD THROWN IN WILD TURMOIL, UPROAR Grain Prices Skyrocket Under Influence of Wheat Rise. Bu United Press CHICAGO, July 13.—The floor of the Chicago Board of Trade was in a wild turmoil and uproar today as. grain prices skyrocketed under the influence of wheat. That commodity gained as much as 6 cents at the close, and other pits registered prices relatively higher than the close twenty-four hours ago. The volume of trading reached greater proportions than have been recorded in months. Wheat opened strong, and on the publication of the extremely bullish Canadian report which had been expected to be bearish, there was a wild rush to buy. After gaing of about 2 cents had befti recorded there were mnay profit taking sales, but these had no effect on the upward trend of the market, and those who sold in the hope of a reaction as well as the shorts were forced to cover in a mad scramble. Crop Weal her Bad News of unfavorable crop weather in the American Northwest and of rains in the Southwest, that probably will hinder the movement of th enew crop, added to the bullish features of the market, so the fact that exporters were idle because of the high premiums was completely overlooked Meanwhile cash prices also went up because of the good milling demand for the new wheat. Corn closed from 2%c- to 2%c higher in all position. This pit borrowed much of its strength from wh+at, but a higher Ash price, improved commercial demand, and the sac that the weather is too cool for tlie growing corn were important contributing factors in the bulge. Oats Are Dull Oats had another dull day, but was 74 to one cent up on the July and September delieveries and unchanged for December, the bulge being caused by the influence of the other pits. Rye was about 5 cents higher. Provisions registered a gain of 13 cents on Stic strength of grain. Chicago Grain Table —July 13WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, close.

FRIGHT IS NEW PLEA IN MURDER (Continued From Page 1) tain things It seems like they must be talking of someone else," and the boy shaded miserable eyes. Won Gun in Game “I'm not in much pain now," he Insisted "I want to tell you how I came to have that gun. You see Id been hunting work for several weeks. It was one day about two weeks ago. after I’d been the rounds all morning and nobody wanted me, that I strolled into Ellenberger Park. Thought I’d play a little tennis, hut couldn’t get on the courts. Then I saw scffne boys—strangers to me, playing cards behind a bush. I watched 'em fur awhile, then I played with them, i won the gun and .some cartridges. "I hid the gun in a closet at home, but I was uneasy, for fear mother would find it. So Last Friday whei/ I started out to hunt a job, I took the gun, thinking I'd pawn or sell it. I rolled up my overalls, too, so if I found work, but I had the gun in my pocket. I was awfully discouraged. Employers don't want to hire a fellow for just a few weeks (you see I wanted to go b; ck to school) and I was feeling pretty rot ten about mother working in a cafeteria, to help keep me up.” "Then I thought about taking a machine and selling It. I made it|i my mind to do It. I fooled around the car. and It was then 1 suppose t-he man who later grabbed me, saw me. Finally, however, it came to me that I wouldn't do it —I wouldoT take the machine. That's the part that I didn't tell the other day—l was too frightened and confused to remember about it. Then I sat down on the running board, and it was then that the man came up and got me. "Knowing that I had first had th intention of taking the machine, 1 was just dumb with fright and couldn't talk. He took me over to the police. Then we were in the tire store and they were making out a paper of some kind. Suddenly l thought of my mother, my folks, the disgrace and an awful wildness — fear or something came over me. I got up ajid in that Instant. I remembered the gun. ‘That'll get me out,’ came as quickly as lightning.

Wanted to Hide “Oh I didn’t mean to hurt any one, honest. I Just knew the sight of it would open the way for me. I don’t believe I shot in the store. All I remember. I’m telling you. After that. It was all rush and shouting, and I know I jumped through a window some place and then there was someone in the way. I don’t remember of threatening him. I just wanted someone to help me, to hide fne and he did and then there was pounding and If I shot I don’.t remember It. It was the awful excitement and the terrible feeling that everyone was after me. I remember falling, or in some way getting over a wall. Maybe 1 climbed in a machine. They say I diil, but I don’t remember. All I remember was awful pain and horrible shouts and people running and mashing down on me—oh God, it was awful," and the boy broke Into little inward sobs. Gaii Alger, the father, turned away from the bedside. “Os course, the police deserve no criticism,” he commented, "but, ch, what they would have saved If they’d only searched the boy in that tire store. Why didn't they, do you suppose?” Two of Gene Alger’s college instructors called at the Alger home Monday to condole the parents. A prominent lawyer, who had known Gene well, also called. “If it was my own son, I wouldn't have been more surprised.” he remarked. “I've always considered Gene a model boy.” Services Held Funeral services for Buchanan were held Monday. City and State dignitaries attended. .The semaphore at Capitol and Indiana Aves., held a wreath while the services were in progress. Motorists paused In respect as they passed the corner. Dressed in full regalia, members of the Persian Shrine Patrlo, the Scottish Rite and Knights Templar Negro Lodges participated. The Rev. F. A. White spoke briefly and Governor Jackson, Mayor Duvall and Chief of Police Claude F. Johnson delievered short eulogies. At the widow’s request, Traffiicmen Alva Lee and Carl Sheets, who shot down Alger, attended. Negrc policemen were Wllhearers. All Negro firemen and police were excused tom duty for the services. Burial was made in Crown Hill cemetery. ,

Thomas L. Hughes Inspected and oraised the decorations on the engine which took the-300 local members to the meeting.

SEARCH RESUMED FOR BUST DEAD (Continued From Page 1) ably will ding the lake, where It was reported one or more bodies had been seen. Officers believed the search might reveal additional dead, imrticularly civilians. Area Quiet Danger of additional serious explosions was considered as having been reduced almost to nothing over night. Today there was compaartlve quiet within the arsenal area. No large shells were exploding. Occasionally there would boa bang from-the mass of debris which would scatter dust for a few yards, hut the explosions were chiefly firing caps and small ammunition. The ground, within the arsenal was still hot but the amoks hail died away. Os the nineteen dead whose bodies have been recovered six remained unidentified. The official list of missing still contained nine names, but Identifies tlons yet to be mrde or bodies recovered undoubtedly will reduce the number. Sixty In Hospital Os the Injured several were discharged from hospitals during the last twenty-four hours and today less than sixty still were reeelvlng hospital treatment. A prayer was said over the bodies at tho gates of the Arsenal, Monday night, as they were removed In ambulances to tho Brooklyn Navy Yard, where they will be hold until Identifications have been completed and relatives have been given an opportunity to claim them.
