WHEAT REACTS FROM PREVIOUS SHARP ADVANCE Liverpool Responds Fairly Well to Late Upturn of Saturday. Bn United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 29.—Wheat- reacted today from the sharp advances of Saturday, suffering fractional losses. Corn showed a good tone and made moderate gains. Oats were steady. At the opening wheat was *4 cent to % cent lower, corn was up 14 cent to % cent and oats were unchanged. Provisions were strong. The Liverpool market today responded fairly well to the big advance in wheat here Saturday. As a result, trading sentiment is a little more two-sided than last week. A large increase in the visible supply is expected today, but it is believed that the movement of wheat is past its peak. Large receipts of corn are expected at many terminals today. It is predicted that the visible supply again will show a decrease. American corn is selling below the Argentine grain, resulting in good export business. Weather over the belt i.< corn, with some snow reported in Nebrasga and Kansas. Oats are without feature. Trading in the futures is dull, and in the cash market light receipts are balanced by light demand. Chicago Grain Table Prev. WHEAT— High. Lor. 12:00. Close.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon 1 In a morning paper the writer points out what we have all talked about frequently. He makes the point that a great many stocks are down substantially from the previous highs, which brings to mind that rather foolish sounding line adopted in Wall Street about a year or so ago, “selective market,” as if a market is ever anything but selective. Did you ever hear of anybody buying everything in the market? You select the one or dozen stocks that you want. We wish to repeat what we said last week. There is in this entire market but one General Motors, but one United States Steel and but one Westinghouse Electric; and, by the way. you notice, after a very considerable delay, how this latter stock is standing out. It was one of the few that reached anew high record last week. We all suffer from habit and we are as guilty as any we know in this respect in still trying to discuss the market when we all know that expansion has been so great that we now have dozens of markets in one. We can see clearly the fact that we are on very risky ground, and we can also see the chance for independent movement in individual issues.

RADIO HITS NEW HIGH IN EARLY TRADING Industrial List Is Active With Confident lone Displayed.

Average Stock Prices

Average of twenty industrials Saturday was 255.51. up 4.07. Average of twenty rails. 141.91. up .56. Average of forty bonds was 96.82, up .05. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK. Oct. 29.—Radio Corporation soared to anew high record in the early trading on the Stock Exchange today, and the entire industrial list was buoyant in active turnover. Kolster Radio also was in urgent demand, soaring to anew peak at 82 %, up 4 points after the initial sale was made at 82 for 20,000 shares. Radio opened at 2 1 0, up 4, and then spurted to 242. up 6 points, and anew higji record. Other leading issues were strong ano the entire market exhibited a confident tone. When the overnight buying orders were executed, however, the list, turned quiet, but was holding gains wpll. There was nothing in the over-the-week-end developments to work against the market except the approach of election, which for the time being was disregarded. General business reports continued highly optimistic and Wall Street was working on the theory that the market’s technical position was improved. Thus tendency, however, did not make for continued buying and traders were quick to take profits on the bulge. Asa result the early gains were reduced in later trading. In addition to the new nighs made by Radio and Kolster. new records for the year or longer were made by Westinghouse at 116%. up 2%; Shubert at 74%, up 2; Western Union 200. up 5; Marland Oil 45 up 1%; American Smelting 275, up 2%, and Kennecott at 1222 %. up 1%. General Motors rose more than a point to 222; United States Steel a point to 162%; Victor Talking Machine 2 points to 137. and Greene Cananea 2 r ‘. to 142. Canadian Pacific was a leader in the rail group, rising nearly 3 points to 219%. St. Louis-Southwestern rose 1U to anew high at 122 % and other rails ruled firm. Oils were quiet and steady, with the exception of Marland, which was in active demand. Coppers as a group were strong.

LESLIE DENIES HE WAS STEVE CHOICE

Didn't Have Backing for Speakership, Answer of Candidate. Bjt Times Special KOKOMO, Ind., Oct. 29.—Indiana voters were left to speculate today on whether Harry G. Leslie, Republican nominee for Governor, was the choice of D. C. Stephenson, former klan dragon, for speakership of the Indiana house of representatives in 1925. They had Leslie’s emphatic declaration that he was not. They had also, the information, purporting to come from Stephenson’s “black boxes,” that someone, designated only as “another man,” had Stephenson’s support before George W. Freeman, state representative from Howard county In 1925, asked for it in a letter dated Nov. 14, 1924, some six weeks before the legislature convened. The Kokomo Dispatch Sunday printed two letters purporting to be Freeman’s request for Stephenson’s support and the “Old Man’s” reply of Nov. 26. 1924.

The letter credited to Freeman informed Stephenson of Freeman’s candidacy for the speakership, and asked his assistance. Stephenson’s reply said: “Your letter of Nov. 14 received. I am indeed sorry, Mr. Freeman, that you brought this matter to my attention at this late date, as I already have given my promise to another man. I would be very glad, however, to see you placed as second, and in that position I will promise you my support.” Replying to the dispatch’s question as to whether he was Steve’s choice, Leslie, in a statement Saturday, declared: “I neither then nor at any other time belonged to the organization through which Stephenson operated There were candidates for the speakership who were reported to belong, so, naturally, his efforts were exerted in behalf of some of them. I certainly did not serve him. I balked his efforts to control certain legislation.” Leslie branded as “contemptibly mean” and “false” the rumor that Stephenson possessed a letter from him expressing his appreciation for the Klan leader’s support.

OLD ‘MET’ ON ITS LAST YEAR Jewels Brought Out for Tonight’s Opening. P;/ United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—Diamonds were taken from safety deposit vaults today; new Paris creations were laid out by maids and New York's growing 400 rested preparatory to one the major social events at the season—opening of the metropolitan grand opera season. There Is a touch of regret about tonight’s opening for it marks the beginning of the last season for the old “Met” which has stood at Broadway and Thirty-ninth street since 1883. Next season a newer and finer opera house, albeit one lacking the traditions, will be opened farther up town and the diamond horseshoe will be cut down to provide more popular prices. The opening tonight shows even anew vogue. Instead of the usual ballet opera, fantastic colorful and heavy such as first nighters have become accustomed to, Signor Gatti Casazza has arranged “Amore Del Tre Koi” with Rosa Ponselle. While it has been in the repertoire for many season: , it Is the first time that the Me'ropolitan has selected the French opera for an opening night.
