THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
PROFIT-TAKING FORCES STOCK DOWN Early Gains Reduced as Realizing Sales Hit List at Noon. Average Stock Prices Average of thirty industrials for Monday was 171.07. up 3.04. Average of twenty rails was 95.54. up .20. Average of twenty utilities was 67.53, up 139 Average of forty bonds was 95.71, up .03. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, April 14.—Advancement in stock prices was halted around noon today by the appearance of substantial realizing sales. Earl gains of a fraction to more than 3 points were erased and the market developed extensive irregularity. Pivotal shares received strong support. A few shares again were under the influence of special selling, but this pressure failed to spread. Dividend uncertainties were responsible for further sharp breaks in Armour of Delaware preferred and Vanadium. On the other hand Auburn Auto and the American Tobacco Issues spurted to further new higs of the year. Other shares to suffer were the amusements, led by a 2-point drop in Paramount. Oils and rails were mixed, while a few volatile shares such as McKeesport Tin Plate and Westinghouse Electric sold off sharply after scoring early advances. Most of the pivotal industrials displayed a firm tone, although some lost their initial advances. United States Steel sold off to 137V 2 , a loss of nearly a point after reaching a high of 138%. Similar movements occurred in General Electric, American Can, Radio and Consolidated Gas. Motor shares as a group were strong under the leadership of Auburn, which gained 3 points to a further new high for the year. General Motors was taken in large blocks at a point advance and Chrysler was firm. Aviation shares continued steady.

DROP PHILLIPS MURDER CHARGE State to Dismiss City Marv Wilson Announces. Murder charges against Alva J. Phillips, 53, of 1337 South Meridian street, alleged to have clubbed to death his wife, Mrs. Mary J. Phillips, 64, in the kitchen of their home, Jan. 16, will be dismissed. Announcement that the state would nolle the charges was made by Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson today after he stated the body of Mrs. Phillips would not be exhumed. That the state’s case against Phillips was weak, was revealed several weeks ago in a criminal court habeas corpus hearing that led Criminal Judge Frank P. Baker to release the defendant on a SIO,OOO bond, rarely done in cases where murder is charged. Body of Mrs. Phillips was found lying, face downward, in a pool of blood in the kitchen of the house. She apparently had died from skull fracture and had been dealt a death blow by a blunt instrument. First Mayor Dies By Times Special PETERSBURG, Ind., April 14.

RAIN PROSPECTS ADD WEAK TONE TO GRAIN MART Light Cash Corn Demand Holds Futures to Narrow Range. BY HAROLD E. RAINYTLLE United Pres* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, April 14.—Prospects for rain in the dry northwest and the failure of Liverpool to respond to the advance here Monday dashed bullish hopes on the Board of Trade today and the market sagged at the opening. Declines were small early with a fair amount of buying support in evidence. Liverpool was easy on profit-taking sales. Com was uneven with the weakness In wheat offset somewhat by the unfavorable weather, nearby months being weak with the deferred deliveries firm. Oats were quiet and steady. Liverpool Sells Off At the opening wheat was H to \ cent higher, corn was % cent lower to % cent higher and oats were unchanged. Provisions were steady Liverpool started unevenly and later sold off to stand % to % cent lower at mid-day. The demand was restricted by the advance. The weather forecast was for rains over widely scattered portions of the belt. European buyers have been placed in an uncomfortable position despite the surplus stocks in exporting countries. Present exports are insufficient to meet the immediate requirements and the crop scare talk in the American northwest and Canada is having its effect. Cash Demand Weak The fact that the cash demand for com is failing to meet expectations and the technical position of the futures is against the market, has put most traders at sea in regards to price trends. The movement is light and stocks are decreasing everywhere, which tends to support the bulls in their belief of higher prices. The immediate outlook seems to depend on wheat. The action in oats was better than it has been recently. There is no pressure and local cash interests seem willing to take grain on the recessions.
