Bv f nitrd /’re** NEW YORK, Sept. 30—The downward movement on the Stock Exchange was resumed at the start of the new week today ater the market as a whole had displayed a steady undertone at the opening. Brisk selling developed in the principal trading stocks shortly after 11 o’clock coincident with renewed firmness in credit conditions and by noon the entire market was under serious pressure. New lows for the current movement were quickly forced in Steel common. American Can, Consolidated Gas, American Telephone, Columbia Gas and other leaders and losses running down to 5 points were attained by pivotal shares like General Electric, New York Central and United States Industrial Alcohol. Nervousness Prevails Resumption of the downward movement after initial steadiness among traders and support orders were quickly withdrawn, allowing the selling movement to gain aggressiveness. Bearish professionals seized the opportunity to renew their attack on the market and the whole list displayed an extremely heavy tone around noon. A vigorous bear attack was made In both Sears, Roebuck and Montgomery Ward on the belief that moderate business recession during the early fall months would interfere with business of these leaders. Montgomery Ward lost more than 2 points on heavy trading. United States Steel developed weakness on reports of greatly curtailed steel operations, while Radio was again thrown on the market in large blocks, forcing it to around its lowest levels on the current reaction. American Telephone and Telegraph and United States Industrial Alcohol made sharp recessions. Selling Lacks Urgency Petroleum Issues, however, continued to display a steady undertone. Both Houston Oil and Mexican Seaboard held substantial gains around noon, while Standard Oils of New York and New Jersey were little changed. Aside from these Exceptions, however, there was little discrimination to the sellirg, practically every group participating in the general downswing. Trading, as a whole, was not active and the decline at no time became sensational. Nevertheless, the downward movement was steady with large operators continuing on the sidelines. Support came largely from shorts and pools allowed their favorites to drift. Tickers were able to keep nearly abreast of the market throughout the morning, indicating that most of the selling lacked urgency.

In the Stock Market
ißv Thomson ft McKinnon! NEW YORK, Sept.. 30.i-There is perhaps a marked difference between conditions prevailing at this time and those that existed when the May and March breaks occurred in the stock market. Instead of rapid business expansion as we had in the spring, we have an altogether different outlook for the balance of the year. Curtailment in several key industries is becoming more noticeable and employment as a consequence is decreasing. To add to the general uncertainty, reports emanating from abroad indicate that even the higher British bank rate has not accomplished the desired result, that is, the precaution of further loss of gold and the suggestion has already been made that an additional advance in the English rate may become necessary. Although it is quite true that unfavorable factors predominate and probably preclude the possibility of an early resumption of the upward trend, yet it must be admitted that price readjustments have been drastic, and to continue ultra-pessi-mistic after so great a general decline would probably prove unwise. We believe long commitments should be reduced, but we would rather await a somewhat more favorable opportunity. VINCENNES MAN f\IAMED Joseph McCord Fills Dexheimer Post as Bank Examiner. Joseph McCord, Vincennes, has been appointed to succeed William R. Dexheimer as chief examiner of the state banking department, it was announced today. Dexheimer resigned to become secretary cf the Farmers . Trust Company at Ft. Wayne.

Although an increasing irregularity in the activity of production may. perhaps, be noted when these figures are analyzed bv the various regions of the country, a sustaining factor is to be found in the remarkable increase in the requirements if irrigation pumping.

WHEAT FUTURE MARKET OPENS SHARPLYDOWN Cheaper Canadian Offers, Argentine Rains Are Main Factors. Bv Vnited Press CHICAGO. Sept. 30.—Cheapei offers of Canadian wheat, with reports of rains in Australia and the Argenti*v broke the Liverpool ir~-h?t nearly 3 cents a bushel today and caused futures on the board of trade here to open sharply lower. Buenos Aires wheat was 3% cents lower at midday. Corn and oats were unevenly a trifle lower. At the opening, wheat was 1 to 1% cents lower, corn was % cent lower to \i cent lower. Provisions were steady to weak. European buyers are not expected to take much of this country’s high grade wheat while they can purchase low grade manitobas at a saving. India has been buying wheat the past week, but because of the heavy stocks at Liverpool and better weather over the southern hemisphere, this has had little strengthening effect on world markets. The disposition of country holders to sell corn and futures instead of buying on a frost damage scare has worked against bull interests. Expectations are that Wednesday’s crop report will show little change from last month. The statistical situation in oats market declines in sympathy. Chicago Grain Table —Sept, 30WHEAT— „„ Prev.

GOVERNOR MAY INTERVENE IN MINER TRIALS State Officers Confer on Judge's Refusal to Co-Operate. A battle between state and Vermillion county authorities loomed today as the result of refusal of Judge William O. Wait of Vermillion circuit court to set the Bono mine riot cases to suit the attorney general's office. Governor Harry G. Leslie and Attorney General James M. Ogden will confer regarding what action will be taken by the state, it was announced. George W. Hufsmith and Merl Wall, deputy attorneys-general in charge of the Bono prosecutions, already have informed the Governor of the treatment they received at a conference with Judge Wait last week. Resent State's Interest Wait, it is said, told the deputy attorneys-general the Vermillion county authorities are “getting tired of having the state try to run their business.” They are all Democrats. The prosecutor, Homer D. Ingram, had the riot cases set for Oct. 7. and felony charges for Oct. 14, th3 reverse of the order asked for by the attorney-general's office. These cases grew out of the rioting at the Bono Mining Company, worker-owned mine, near Dana, last July. Fifty-seven union miners were arrested, after the attorneygeneral's office took charge of the case at the request of Governor Leslie. Defends State Action The Governor has full constitutional power to interfere in any county where he deems the law is not being enforced properly, the deputy attorneys-general contend. James Ewing, treasurer of the Bono mine, who is to be one of the chief jtate witnesses at the trial, is not in" Dana now, according to Hufsmith. His wife said he will appear at the trial, but has been threatened, the deputy declared. S 0 S FROM RUSSIAN OCEAN PLANE ERROR Land of Sovies Reaches Sitka After Filght in Fog.
