Issues Reach 124 1-B—Entire
Rail List in Brisk Demand
in Final Hour.
. By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, April 26.—The stock
market opened nnsettled today on sell
ing for both leng and short account.
The failure of the United Statds Steel
Airectors to increase the dividend caused
speculative selling, and the common
viglded % to 82%. Thewailway issues
were generally lower, because of In
creased attention attachefl to the labor
situation. Reading declined % to Bsl%
and fractional lossey were sustained in
rie and New Have\
The Mexican group was stronfi for a
saw minutes, but a supply quickly ap
peared and those issues faal about all
their initial gaing. American Hmelting,
after rising % to 94, dropped to 93,
Mexican Petroleum started % hlgher at
96% and then receded to 04, aldwin
Locomotive was the weakest of the spe
clalties and, after opening % higher at
87, fell to 84, Anaconda was fairly well
held, advancing %4 at the start to 82%,
but lost the gain under moderate sales,
The marine (ssues were aflaln in good
demand. but showed little change at the
end of the fipst fifteen minutes, Distil
lers was exceptionally strong, moving up
a point to 49%.
In the late forencon price movements
were mixed, some issues sustainiog sub
stantial losses, while others were in
vigorous demand and made moderate
gains., Distillers was one of the most
prominent features, advancing to 50
a galn of 1% points in all, Industrial
Alcohol rallied from 144% to 147, but re
acted .to 145%;. Bteel Common sold at
83, Mexican Petroleum at $5, Anaconda
at 82%, Mar‘ne common at 24 and the
Srefr-rred at ~1%. Jdreene-Cananea rose
points to 48%. Man{ of the speclal
ties were weak, Baldwin selling at 83%
and Crucible at 78%. Business in the
rallway issues was smaill and fractional
losses were noted.
Many issues dllph:iyed weaknesg in the
early afternoon and substantial losses
were recorded. Marine preferred was in
free supply, selling down to 80%, while
the common was In good demand and
l;l.xanvu‘tfrom 2% to) 23%‘. Distiliers
1 all its u‘b gain, seliing at 48@.
Amorie‘sn gfno ting deglined a point to
09244, orfolk and Western was strong,
ad‘mnclnf 2% to 123.
The r&lway fssues were in brisk de
mand during the last half hour of trad
ing and scored substantial galns, based
on the declaration of an extra dividend
of 1 rer cent on Norfolk and Western.
This {ssue jumped to 1244, Union Pacif
fc advanced to 130% and Pennsylvania
reached 56%.
. The market closed steady. Govern
ments unchanged; rallway and other
bonds strong.
Money loaned at 2% per cent.

The Journal of Commerce publishes
its first ms?:llment of special crop re

acreufe increase is seen In Arkansas,
Louisiana, Tennessee and Florida. High
price for fertilizers largely curtalls their

of Fulton County:
&
No one disputes Mr. Arnold’s in
tegrity, ability and efficiency as a
prosecuting officer, but they do doubt
the advisability of his holding an of
fice which belongs to the public all his
natural life.
Mr. Arnold has the above qualifica
tions, but he has no monopoly on them.
Other lawyers in Atlanta are just as
worthy and well qualified, so why con
tinue Mr. Arnold in office longer than
12 years?
J. V. POOLE, who is asking the
voters to give him the office at this
time, was born and reared on the farm -
in Forsyth County, taught school in
Forsyth and Milton Counties, grad
uated at the University of Georgia in
1905, practiced law at Lawrenceville
and Buford, Ga., and has been prac
ticing here in Atlanta for about eight
years, all of which give him as large, if
not larger, experience than Mr. Ar
nold, he having been born and reared
here in the City of Atlanta, and knows
nothing of country life except “coun
try home” life, and certainly nothing
of plowing a mule from sunup until
dark in the middle of June.
Mr. Poole has not tried to get nor
ask for an indorsement from any law
yers nor any political clique, but, on
the contrary, has gone to the voters
and asked them personally to vote for
him, they being the ones who should
control the public offices and not a cer-|
tain bunch of lawyers, and he respect
fully asks- the voters of FULTON
COUNTY to investigate his record
as to character and ability from the
day of his birth to the present, and if
there is a thing against either, don't
vote for him.
