Average Stock Prices

Average of twenty Industrials Monday was 195.91, up 1.80. Average of twenty rails was 139.88, up .45. Average of forty bonds was 99.01, up .05. B "^EW d YORK, Nov. 15.—Strength in railroad shares and a steady tone in the remainder of the market marked early dealings on the Stock Exchange today. _ United States Steel opened at 142 Vi off Vi and quickly sold down to 141%, off a full point. This was considered natural in view of the sharp advance experienced by this issue in Monday’s last hour rally. General Motors sold at 132% off % on the initial transaction and from then until after 10:15 no other sales were recorded, when another price showed the issue at 131%. Best & Cos. moved up fractionally to new high ground and Montgom-ery-Ward gained, but Sears-Roe-buck declined a full point. Timkeii Roller Bearing, International Telephone and Telegraph, U. S. Rubber and Union Carbide were in demand. Motor issues held just under the previous close and coppers eased slightly, as did oils. Completion of huge monetary turnover incident to the second Liberty maturity without any disturbance in credit conditions inspired fresh confidence regarding soundness of the economic dtuation and stocks scored further gains in early dealings. % Standard dividend shares continued to display special strength. Union Carbide, Atchison, N. Y. Central and Allied Chemical were in demand around the best levels of the movement. Steel, Motors Better at Noon Professional operations designed to start a technical reaction were curbed by another buying movement around noon. Strength revived in Steel and General Motors. Moon featured the low-priced motor shares. In connection with the recent improvement marketwise in this stock, Stewart MacDonald, president of Moon, says the outlook for next year is more encouraging than for some time.

Willard Carson

Bn Times Special LIBERTY, Ind., Nov. 15—Search for Willard Carson, accused of slaying his father, Clinton Carson, here two years ago is being carried forward with renewed intensity today following receipt of a letter by Spencer Stevens, brother-in-law of Carson, demanding $6,500. Authorities expect that Carson’s greed for money will lead eventually to his capture, as they believe that he will appear at the home of some relative here to demand it. The slaying of the elder Carson is said to have followed refusal to give the son money. Fred Puckett, Muncie officer, credited with the capture there of the notorious bandit, Gerald Chap> man, afterward executed for murder, is here leading in the hunt for Carson.

BALL PARK FI6HT UP Planners to Rule Thursday on Permit Plea. City plan commission members will decide Thursday at 3 p. m. whether a special permit will be issued to the Indianapolis Baseball Club to erect a $500,000 park on E. Washington St., between Keystone and Tacoma Aves. to New York St. Gustav G. Schmidt, commmission president, announced today that members of the commission are conducting private investigations. Commission members are known to favor small property owners against the ball club, because they feel another park site can easily be found. They are investigating many duplications in the list of protestants who appeared before the commission last Thursday and objected to the park. A remonstrance signed by 406 persons was filed, while there are less than 100 abutting property owners eligible to object. James A. Perry, club president has announced no legal appeal will be taken from the commission’s decision if it is against the stadium. Marriage.

ACCUSED WIDOW READY TO TALK Mrs. Margaret Smith to Be Witness Today. BY CHARLES C. STONE State Editor The Times LIBERTY, Ind., Nov. 15.—A pale little woman with black bobbed hair will take the witness stand in Union Circuit Court here late today to tell her side of the death of her husband. She Is Mrs. Margaret Smith, widow of George Smith, on trial on a first-degree murder charge alleging she killed her mate by administering arsenic. Smiles that former neighbors give the widow in their efforts to encourage her no longer draw a response. A few days ago she smiled back. But today she sits unheeding —tired and worn from listening day after day to the State’s evidence. Her high school flapper daughter, Ilene, 15, still is beside Mrs. Smith in court, her blonde hair in striking contrast to the dark hair of her mother. Mrs. Smith does not remove the black plush coat and black felt hat which she has worn in the courtroom since the trial started. Staring straight ahead, as if she did not hear, Mrs. Smith Monday heard former neighbors testify that she is a woman of good character. Fifteen witnesses were used by the defense for character testimony. Not one would say anything against the widow. All denied even a suspicion that she administered the poison which the State asserts ended the life of George Smith. $14,750 for Lindoln Fund Bu United Press EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 15.—The Evansville branch of the Lincoln Memorial drive Monday reported collection of $14,750, the first day’s efforts to secure Evansville’s $50,000 quota of $14,750 to be raised for erection of a memorial to Abraham Lincoln’s mother, Nancy Hanks Lincoln.
