PRICES ADVANCED
IN MARKETS TODAY
Movement, However, Was Considered Slow; No lmpor-
tant Change in Spec uative Situation
By associated Press

New York, May II. - Speculative OPP
erations veered toward the long side
during the morning and trading was
more active than in recent days. Prices
were advanced steadily, although the
movement was slow. All of the repre-
sentative issues made a good showing
with many gains of point or more.
There were no important change in
the speculative situation and the up
turn was attributed more to an over
sold condition than to outside infiu-
ences. The cheerful tone of the week
-ly steel trade reviews helped the steel
shares, despite announcement of further
price reductions and reports that for
eign steel makers werek campaigning
for business in the Pittsburgh district.
Bonds were firm.

ARGENTA BOY DIES
 OF PISTOL WOUND
Leslie Sharp Meets Death While
 Cleaning His Revolver

Argenta, Arkansas, March 19.- After lingering between life and death for three days. Leslie Sharp. the 19-year-old Argenta youth who Monday accidentally shot and serious ly wounded himself, this morning at 1 o'clock died from the injuries in flicted by the bullet which went through his entire body.
 About o'clock Monday a shot was heard in the rooms above the Peoples market at 613 1-2 East Washington avenue, and later when groans at tracted the attention of the proprie- tor of the market, several men went to the room from whence the counds came and found young Sharp lying on the floor where he had fallen out of the chair, where he was sitting when shot. Near him was a SS-cali- Der revolver which had been dis charged. and in the back of the chair was lodged the leaden ball, which had penetrated deeply into the cushions of the chair.
 Doctors were quickly summoned and arrived while the boy s.lli was conscious and he whispered that he had accidentally shot himself while cleaning the pistol.
 Young Sharp was dressed and ready to go to work at the Parkin- Longley Company of Little Rock. and was cleaning his revolver before going over the river to work. When his father came to the rooms where his son had been shot he had already been removed to St. Vincent's Infirm- ary Owens & Kicks ambulance.
 Since that time he has been under the continual care of nurses and doc tors, who fought hard to have him from imminent death. All efforts fail ed, however, and this morning he suc- cumbed to effects of his injuries.
