UNION PACIFIC HAS SENSATIONAL
 SL J MP
LONDON PRICES ON AVERAGE IN CREASE EARLY BUT DECLINE
 LATER IN DAY
MANY ISSUES SHOW STRENGTH
ALL GRAINS SHOW INCREASES COPPER PRIMER AND TIN
 MUCH STRONGER

NEW YORK, August l6.--ln all es- sential respects today's stock market did not differ from the last fortnight. London prices for our securities were again higher and there was the same local bulish outburst at the opening with new high records in Union Pacific, common and preferred, and southern Pacific, while Reading, New York Cen tral, St. Paul and other issues of les ser importance were conspicuous for strength.
 The only sensational feature was the quick slump of Union Pacific, beginning in the last hour. That stock evinced reactionary tendency at 21a points decline, when suddenly it fell to 2l4 break of five points from it's high record price of the morning. The com mon stock came out in lots of 800, 1000 and 2.000 shares with 2.5O0 shares at 2l4A. At 2l4 the decline was arrested and some ground was temporarily re covered, but the net result of the day was the loss of 3s points.
 Further feverishness was shown by the list in the final trading and many active issues recorded net declines. ono of the weakest features being United States Steel, common.
 Bonds irregular. Total sales, s4,470, 900. Government bonds unchanged.

TUCSON WILL TEST
 NEW PRIMARY LAW
ATTORNEY GENERAL RELIEVES EFFORT TO PROVE VALIDITY
 WILL BE MADE

TUCSON, August 16.-That the first practical test of the new primary law adopted by the last legislature will be made in this city is the opinion of At torney General Wright expressed in Phoenix.
 Commenting on the matter Phoe- nix paper says: "Tucson will hold its city election in December, and Attor- ney General Wright is of the opinion that an effort will be made to test the primary law there in order that it's validity may have been settled before territorial or state election.
 "However, an election held under the present law as far as the results are concerned would have to hold, v said Attorney General Wright, "and candidates who might be elected under the law would not be busted.
 "l have found in one place that can didates for delegate to congress and joint councilmen must file their nom mating petitions with the territorial secretary and in another that super visors must certify their nomination to the secretary. though the board has no legal knowledge of the petitions.
 "In another it provides what must | be contained in the nominating peti- tions. yet in the blank forms for such petitions none of the provisions are set forth.
 "The secretary of the territory is re quired to give notice to cities and what to do for approaching city elections, yet the secretary has no knowledge of when the city elections are to be held.
 ''In my opinion, the primary law does not cover elections in towns, and leaves them without any law govern. ing their elections, the old primary law having been repealed. | Wright states that in studying the primary law for the purpose of prepar- ing blanks for primary elections, for which bids are being asked, he has found other conflicts of more or less importance.
 Wright further expressed the opinion that if candidates for delegate to con gress have 10 pay notarial fees for the aeknowledgmen of nominating peti- tions, the expense to the candidate will reach $l,000.

WASHINGTON, D.

 Events of political interest are sched uled for three widely separated sections of the country.
