fhe Casver Dally Crroune PAGE NINE in countries further west but only small lots were brought there, giv- ing rise to the presumption that the buying was a move intended to check contracting for hair on the goat's pack. Automobiles CLEVELAND, March 19.—The production schedule of the Peerless company this month calls for 19 eight cylinder cars a day with ship- ments running from 14 to 25 cars daily. The company reports it has orders for more six cylinder models than it expects to be able to make. It planned production of 252 of this type this month, but non delivery cf bodies ts holding back out put. “Paints PHILADELPHIA, March 19.—The sales of paint and varnish so far this year have fallen slightly below the early 1923 level, but this ts attributed to the late cold weather which check- ed building operations and to the fact that last year the advancing tendency of prices was more marked, giving encouragement to buying for future needs. Textiles POTTSVILLE, Pa., March 19.—A number of the underwear factories in this vicinity have curtailed opera- tions owing to dullness of trade. A part of this depression is atttributed by manufacturers to demand for silk rather than cotton undergarments. Factories which have large South American connections report trade remarkably strong with that terri- tory. Drugs CHICAGO, March 19—Drugs and chemicals opened the current week with prices generally higher and buying very brisk. The high prices of metals has been responsible for advances in salts of tin, zinc, lead and copper. Fruit HOUSTON, March 19.—The belat- ed cold waves of recent weeks have not injured the east Texas peach crop according to reliable reports. On the contrary, the cold has set the sap and blooms back to a safe point. Textiles BOSTON, March 19.—Installation of woolen machinery at the Amos- keag mills must not be taken to in- dicate an intention. of curtailing cot- ton cloth production. Only 1,700 out of 25,700 Amoskeag looms now are for producing a woolen or worsted Product. The completion of a new power plant, it is felt, will place the company in a better position than ever to cope with southern cotton cloth competitors. Wheat. DULUTH, March 19.—The slump in the local wheat market since the presidential proclamation raising the tariff on wheat is attributed by local dealers to the belief that imports of Canadian wheat before the new rates become effective will be ex- traordinarily heavy. Market Gossip and Briefs On Operations in Oil Fields Medicine Bow Report. Latest information as to the progress of the test well being drilled on the Medicine Bow struc- ture shows the present depth to be 4,730 feat.

More Tales Teapot In a narticle published in the Christian Belence Monitor of Bos- ton, Roy Churchill Smith of the In- land Oil Index staff recites the his- tory of Teapot dome, declaring that great deal of misinformation has been spread as to the true status of the Mammoth’s operations and their effect on the oll industry of the state. His donélusion is that it would be entirely wrong to cancel the Sinclair lease. Lease Sells High Payment of $60,000 was made sev- eral days ago in Denver for a quar- ter section of oll land near Fort Collins. The owners retain an eighth royalty interest. Disposition of the lease was made to‘’a Mr. Cook, who fs obligated to commence drilling within 60 days after the Union Of1 company of California starts to deliver oll and gas. Enter Carbon County.

Hummer of the Indian asylum at Canton, S. D., is also here in the interests of Herman. He may be put on the stand by the defense. Dr. A. P. Kimball, the first wit ness called, gave a description of the course of the bullet which he had found lodged in the muscles in Anderson's shoulder. He said that the bullet had killed the man in- stantly. Dr. Kimball was asked innumer- able hypothetical questions relative to the position the man was in when shot and how he had fallen. The sum and substance of it all was that Anderson could have fallen either on his back or stom- ach, that he might have turned over after he was shot and that he might have turned while falling.

Buying for the long account was in- fluenced by easy money rates, call funds being obtainable at’3 per cent, the lowest since August 1922. Sales approximated 1,000,000 shares. NEW YORK, March 19.—short covering operations tmparted a firm tone to opening prices in today’s Stock market. Low and medium priced ratis were again in good de- mand, Erie first preferred and Chesapeake and Ohio continuing thelr rise to higher ground. Tobacco Products which was heavily sold yesterday, rallied a point. Prices continued thelr upward trend with the principal fluctuations taking place in the specialties. Standard industrials showed little change except for a renewal. of sell- ing pressure against Studebaker which yielded half. Other auto- motive shares made good recovery from recent heaviness, Mack Truck, Fisher Body and Maxwell A rising 1 to nearly 2 points. General Elec- tric moved up 1 to 22916, another new high since 1902. Other strong spots included Central Leather pre- ferred, Mathieson Alkali, National Lead and Colorado Fuel, up 1 to 3 ints. Foreign exchanges steady. Concentrating on the motors, in- dependent steels, and shipping shares, bear traders later renewed selling pressure against the gen- eral ist. Crucible was down four points to a new low at 56 and the increase in American International corporation deficit also sent that stock to a new low.

Dr. Wilkins, 35, a practicing os- teopath, and once the wife of the late Thomas W. Cunningham, Jop- lin, Missouri, banker, from whom she obtained more than $300,000 be- fore he divorced her met death in her home some time since Saturday night. Dr. Wilkins kept hidden in her home securities amounting to more than $100,000, according to Jesse James, her attorney.

Lowest Prices Since Last July 30 In Chicago Market CHICAGO, March 19.—Sharp new breaks in wheat took place today shortly after the market opened. General quotations by holders was started by persistent selling that came from houses with eastern con- nections.

The opening which varied from unchanged to %@%o lower with May $1.05% to $1.05% and July $1.06% to $1.06%, was followed by an irregular set- back of nearly 1%c. The decline carried the market to the lowest level since July 30 last, but then something of a rally en- sued. The close was steady, \ to H@lc net lower, May $1.04% to $1.04% and July $1.05%. Corn and oats were in sympathy with wheat, corn dropping to last week's inside figures. After open- ing % to %c off May 77% to 7 corn fell to 77%c Ma: A little further sag to 770 for May was witnessed. Selling subse- quently, however, lacked volume, and the market recovered to a ma- terial extent. The close wa un- settled, % to %c net lower, May 17% to 77%c.
