LATE RALLY SENDS STOCK QUOTATIONS UPWARD ON MARKE Prices Drag Most of Day But Buyers Bid Briskly to ! Revive Trade New York, May 16.—(?)—The stock market managed to pull a good rally out of a session which started out with another inauspicious sinking spell Monday. Early losses of 1 to 4 in the more active issues were recov- ered, and a number of the industrials | And closed with net gains of 1 to 3 points. The closing tone was strong. The upturn was based on nothoing more than highly nebulous rumors and appeared to reflect short cover- ing chiefly. Among rumors mention- ed were possible fresh restrictions on |B! short selling and constructive deve- lopments in Washington. The list stiffened for a time in the middle of the day.’ after the DuPont dividend ‘was out of the way, but the rally did not get under way in earnest until the last hour. American Telephone was a leader in the movement. Eastman rose 3 points above Satur- | day's close. Issues up about 1 to 2/C! included U. S. Steel, American Tele- phone, Standard of N. J., DuPont, American Can, Consolidated Gas, Al- |© lied Chemical, Santa Fe, New York Central, American Tobacco “B,” and Public Service of N. J. Union Pa- cific, after selling off 4 points, ral- lied to register a gain of one, and closed unchanged. Final prices generally were some- what under the best of the rally. Homestake Mining, a firm spot from time to time, had a rapid advance,! gaining more than 7 points. —__. | Livestock | oe SOUTH ST. PAUL LIVESTOCK South St. Paul, May 16.—(#)—(U. 8. D.

A good rally followed. A final upward twist was due to a liberal decrease in prin- cipal supplies. Coarse grain futures followed the lead of wheat but re- ceived little attention. High winds damaged the new crop in northwestern Texas and Okla- homa. May and July wheat futures closed higher. May oats closed 1-8 off, July 1-4 up, and September 1-4 up. May rye was 1 1-8 cent up, July and Sep- tember 1 1-8 cent up. May barley was 3-8 cent up, and July and Sep- tember 1-2 cent up.

CONTINUED from page one Request Treasury To Maintain Watch For Ransom Money the eastern seaboard for the schooner used by the purported kidnapers in their negotiations. Capt. Randolph Ridgely, commander of the coast guard in the New York area, said in New York that the identity of the schooner was known and it had been in New York waters within the past two weeks, Dr. Condon spent some time lery, in an effort to identify th man to whom he paid the money, though whether he did was not disclosed. “I would know that man anywhere —among a thousand,” Dr. Condon said Monday. The woman who may be with the men, police said, is she who acted as messenger for the kidnapers on at least two occasions. Authorities have learned Dr. Con- don's zeal in seeking the baby’s return was not counterbalanced by corre- sponding caution in guarding certain vital identifying signs. The unique sign of the circles, the signature on the ransom note left in the Lindbergh nursery the night of the kidnaping and which was to prove the authen- ticity of subsequent notes from th2 kidnapers, was made known by Dr. {Condon, police learned, to at least three persons and perhaps more. These persons, ineluding two business men, are to be questioned by the Bronx district attorney, interested in the circumstance that the $50,000 “lransom hoax was executed in his jurisdiction. Rosner Knew Sign Others also knew the peculiar na- ture of the circle signature. One of these was Morris Rosner, undercover man called into the case by the Lind- berghs early in March. Salvy Spitale and Irving Bitz, two men with gang connections, also knew about the sig- nature. Despite the wide extent of the po- lice operations on sea and land and with federal, state and city agencies combining in the murder hunt, no ar- rests had been made Monday. John Hughes Curtis, the Norfolk Va., intermediary was still cooperat- There were some indications the group which he and two Norfolk associates engaged in fansom negotiations was the same to which Dr. Condon paid the $50,000 ransom. There was no positive information on this point, however. The descrip- tions of the men as given by Curtis and Condon were too general, police said. The wildest rumors kept police headquarters at Trenton aggravated Sunday night. One rumor said a servant in the Lindbergh household had committed suicide. Another in- volved sinister implications concern- ing a person not previously mention- ed; and a third pointed a finger at a Person who does not even exist.

Apostle Leads in Association List of Batting Talent Fred Koster of St. Paul Paces Field in League Hitting Department Chicago, May 16—(7)—A splurge which added 28 points to nis average during the fourth week of the sea- son, sent Fred Koster, St. Paul out- fielder, to the top of the American Association batting list. Figures, including Thursday's games, gave Koster a mark of .390, while Swanson of Columbus, last week's leader, fell off 46 points and dropped to third position. Swan- son, however, led in three depart- ments. He had knocked in 30 runs, had total bases of 65, and headed the base stealers with 11 thefts. Joe Mowry, Minneapolis, sensation- al young outfielder, had the most hits, 45, and had scored 32 runs for a pair of leaderships, while Nick Cul- lop, Columbus outfielder, had banged out six home runs for the honors in that department. Marquardt of Kan- sas City led in hitting triples with five, and Bevo LeBourveau's 10 dou- bles headed that brand of hitting. Following Koster among the regu- lars were Mowry, Minneapolis, .387; Swanson, Columbus, .379; Marquardt, Kansas City, .374; Ganzel, Minneap- olis, .368; Mosolf, Kansas City, .368; Sam Haile, Indianapolis, 362; Siga- foos, Indianapolis, .360; Crawford, Columbus, .351; and Nachand, Louis- ville, .350. Rube Benton of Minneapolis, in league about as long as any active pitcher, had won four straight vic- tories, to lead, while Jack Knott, Milwaukee youngster, ranked close up with five victories and one defeat. Bryan (Slim) Harriss of St. Paul and John Berly of Indianapolis shared the lead in strikeouts with 27 apiece. Kansas City's team batting aver- age slipped off three points to .321, but Columbus lost nine points to break their first-place tie of a week ago. Minneapolis retained the team fielding leadership with a .973 aver- age, three points lower than last week, while St. Paul's mark improved five points, to put the Saints in sec- | ond place with 972.
