Average of twenty industrials Monday was 175.40, up .47. Average of twenty rails was 138.93. up .17. Average of forty bonds was 97.10, up .05. By United Pres* NEW YORK, July 19.—A drive against rails in the closing hour of the session was the feature of trading on the New York Stock Exchange today. Recessions were heaviest in issues which showed strength in the recent advance. Erie, one of the feature of the carrier group Jast week, slumped a point. Delaware & Hudson was subject to heavy profit-taking, losing a point while Lehigh Valley glided off a full 7 points. G. M. C. Upswing The redeeming feature of today’s session was the pyrotechnic display by General Motors which soared 3 points to anew high mark at 208%. Manhattan electric supply was another feature of strength in the industrial group, moving up 3 points to very close to anew high. General Electric was the most active of the group, gaining 3 points to new high ground. u Today’s market witnessed further aggresive demonstrations on the upside. Baldwin soared to the highest price of its history while General Motors and General Electri reached the best levels ever attained by the present shares. Specialties Climb Westinghouse Electric reached its most attractive price in 20 years and a substantial gain was scored by Sears-Roebuck, Fleishmann and various other specialties. However, considerable selling went ahead in some sections of the market under cover of this strength. It was evident that the general level of prices had reached the heeights which invited active profittaking and this factpr caused ragged movements in the general list. Realizing sales were particularly heavy in recent favorites of the railroad group.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
In the Cotton Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, July 19.—Monday’s decline Improved the technical position and at the same time afforded us an opportunity to see whether the market can take punishment. The answer seems to be decidedly yes. There is a profit in the market for you either way Just now. Take a mercantile view and buy it on the breaks for sales on advances.
In the Sugar Market
(Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, July 19.—Very little interest is being displayed in the speculative sugar market at the moment. Prices have shown a tendency to sag. not because of any special pressure, but rather from absence of support. Actual quotations depend more upon the technical conditions at the time the particular trade is put through rather than on the basic position of the market.

VIENNESE PEACE ON SHAKY BASIS Socialists and Foes Appear to Wait New Spark. By United Pres* VIENNA, Juy 19.—A nervous peace, made potentially unstable by claim and counter-claim from opposing factions, today had settled upon the Austrian capital. The Palace of Justice was in ruins, but the government announced that last Friday’s riots would not interfere with the machinery of law. Three courts were to resume sessions today In the former national bank building. Both rebellious Socialists and the Clerical government declared themselves victorious In the internal strife. The government attributed collapse of the .riots to realization by Socialists that all revolutionary acts would be met with a strong hand and conquered. The Socialists, on the other hand, argued that the masses had won a victory when the government permitted the Republican guard, the Socialists’ police force, to bear arms. Latest reports today placed the dead from the week-end rioting at ninety-seven and the crtically wounded at more than 100. The Socialists made the angry claim that police had used dumdum bullets in putting down the mob. BURNED AUTO FOUND CLOSE TO CAT’S GRAVE Morgan County Authorities Unable to Solve Fire Mystery.
