Few industries could have stood the strain OF low prices

Saving OF profits during the good and exceptional

LOWDEN MEN CLAIM,
STRATEGIC POSITION

Chicago, May l7.-While they admit that
General Leonard Wood will have the larg-
est block of delegates on tho first ballot
in the Republican national convention,
the campaign managers of Governor
Frank q. Lowden are asserting day
that their candidate Is in the best STRATEGY
ic position So far as the actual nominal
ton IL concerned and that If the field
were to be narrowed down TO those who
nrs openly in tho race. thus eliminating
all dark horses" the Illinois governor
might be reasonably safe as to the result.
Friends Of Governor Lowden are talk
ing the viewpoint that General Wood
will be at the top of his strength on
the first ballot and will go back after
that is taken. They say that. despite
tho efforts of Frank H. Hitchcock and
other Wood leaders who are working
light and day to round up delegates,
the Gen,Ial cannot hope to bet more
than 900 votes on the first ballot and
that his total probably will he nearer
$50 TO 26O.
On the other hand. while Lowden will
have fewer delegates on the first ballot
his managers express the conviction that
he will increase his strength from that
moment and soon pass Genera! Wood

New York. May 1S.--The pinch of
hard times for the small investor was
clearly visible in to-day's heavy stock
exchange transactions in Liberty bonds
and Victory notes. all issues of which.
with one exception sold at new low
records.
OF the days total transactions in
bonds. amounting to almost $31,O0O,Oo0,
government issues constituted an
overwhelming proportion.
The great decline In selling prices,
which amounted from so to 1.50 be-
low yesterdays closing figures, was
attributed by brokers to the fear or
holders that if Congress enacts new
will suffer heavy losses in value. a
disposition by corporations and veal
thy individuals to sell in big blocks
and the difficulty experienced by the
individual in need of ready cash In
securing loans from the banks.
All the Liberty bonds except the
1-2s, which are tax exempt and the
Victory 4 3-4s which duplicated their
recent minimum, suffered falls in price
ranging from 10 to ! 1-2 per cent.
with feeble rallies at the close of the
