THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
In the Cotton Market
, (By Thomson & McKinnon! 1 NEW YORK. Dgc. 9.—The cotton market was unusually quiet for a day succeeding a final report. Short selling on Thursday caused enough buying in the morning to give the market a steady tone. New England reports of poor business, and the textile report on mill business, which was bearish, both failed to cause any break in prices. We fall to see any great demand from the trade for contracts, however, and if our conclusion that cotton will be a better field for the traders than one with a fixed opinion on prices for the present. It cannot be denied that the price of cotton looks Cheap, especially when compared with value during.-the time when the crop was moving in vpfume. NEW ORLEANS High. Low. Close.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon! NEW YORK. Dec. 9.—Today's stock marketw as full of cross currents and counter movements, although on the whole the Sffit was upward. Bearish sentiment which has been more pronounced In the last /ew days, was in a measure counteracted by the short covering that set In * “J?®* during the day. Although this was noticeable in many parts of tne list, ft appears as if the rails were more Jh favor. The action of the Southern Ra Iway Thursday in raising its dividend ha f made an impression, especially with rrmors that Southern Pacific might do ikewlse. Eastern executives are reported 11 be making progress with their consollda--1 on plans In the hope that the legislation asked for by the interstate commerce commission will be forthcoming at this session. Encouragement of this kind was obtained from the announcement that the progressives in the Senate had decided not to block the Republican legislative program. Unsettlement of the stock market is likely to continue throughout the mouth, however, in view of the changing money situation incident to the period, which involves the tax requirements for the fifteenth, the large amount of cash needed for the holiday trade, which reported to be very satisfactory and In preparation for the year end disbursements. The bearish sentiment is likely to continue for the present unless there is some new development. We therefore anticipate a continuation of these unsettled markets.

Bu U/tited Press CHICAGO, Dec. 9.—Prices held practically steady on the Chicago Board of T-ade today. Late in the day wheat was practically unchanged, com was slightly lower and oats was off a fraction in sympathy. Wheat took a drop just after the opening, pn the weakness in corn and generally bearish Argentine nes?s. A half-hearted rally ensued, which recovered the losses. Liverpool was steady .'end Buenos Aires a little higher after the holiday. Argentine news was bearish and export demand flat. Cash wheat was unchanged, receipts were ten
cars. Corn broke early in the morning, selling off about 1 cent. Local professionals were still influenced by Thursday’s private reports and sold freely. As in wheat, however, a rally and some of the losses were recovered. The rest of the session up to the closing hour was dull. Receipts, 113 cars; cash market, 1 cent to 2 cents lower. Oats followed the decline, sentiment continuing to disregard the technically bullish condition of the market. Receipts totaled sixty-five cars and the cash market was 12 cents lower. Tendencies which had been evident throughout the dull session, crystallized during the closing hour, with results as follows: Wheat, up %c to %c; com, %c to He lower; and oats. %c to %c higher.

19,000 WANT POSTS AS U. S. DRYSLEUTHS Third of All Persons Seeking Federal Jobs Apply to Be Snoopers. BY ROBERT TALLEY Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.—Approximately a third of the 60,000 persons now seeking Government positions
have applied for jobs in the prohibition service* Kenneth C. Vlpond, assistant chief txaminer and budget officer of the United States Civil Service Commission, told Congress’ Committee on Appropriations the other day. There are 19,000 applications for prohibition jobs on flie with the commission, he said, and between 30,000 and 40,000 applications for other Federal jobs. Os the 19,000, Vipond estimated, probably 5,000 will be found eligible and 2,500 will be appointed. Average costs for the examination and character investigation of each appointee will be about SIOO. Oral Test Is Given “We are taking more pains and doing more work on these examinations than we do on any others,” George R. Wales, Civil Service Commissioner, told the committee. “We are having the oral test and personal interviews with each applicant. There is a personal interveiw with every applicant after the first part of the examination.” Representative Wood of Indiana* a committee member, asked for details. “If the applicant gets by the first part of the examination, which is the experience test,” Wales continued, “then he comes up before our examiner for the oral test. The oral test will last, perhaps, for two hours.”
Quality Up to Examiner “Does that oral test relate to the amount of liquor he can consume?” Wood, laughingly. ’'No, sir; we do not try to determine that,” Wales replied. “That is left to the examiner,” sagely put in Representative Buchanan of Texas. “They test the quality themselves,” smiled Representative Madden of Illinois, the committee chairman. “They do not let him test it.” Wales said that in making a character investigation it is often necessary to check up on applicant's past in a half-dozen different cities, thus incurring additional expense. Seek More Funds “Do you divide it up into, say, 3 per cent for sobriety, 5 per cent for honesty and 6 per cent for good looks, etc.?” asked Madden. “No, we take the whole story of the complete record and after a very careful perusal of that we arrive at what the record shows,” answered Wales. * - , <r . ' The Civil Service Commission was trying to convince thf ccmmittee that it needed an additional $191.500 appropriation in the first deficiency bill for the examination of prohibition applicants.
