MEN OF SUCCESS
OhiOan Describes Milli0n-DOl
lar Small Town Business.

The necessity for putting a lot of hard
work into a business to make 1t a sue
cess was emphasized by G. A. Carver
Strasburg. Ohio, in a talk on Building
a Million-Dollar Business in Town OF
!, 800 at this mornings session of the
fourth annual convention OF the Indiana
Retail Clothiers and Furnishers' Associ-
alton at the ClaypOol Hotel.
He said one Of the things decided by
his brother and himself when they took
over their fathers store In Strasburg was
that their whole time, ability and
strength belonged to the business. Each
had his own tasks, the work never over
tapping.
He told of the growth Of the store
against the competition that a store In
small town must meet from larger
nearby towns.
The program for the afternoon session
included an address by Andreas Burk
hardt. Cincinnati. president Of the Ma
tional Association of Retail Clothiers
and a talk on income tax questions by
H. NJ. Tebay, Department Of Internal
Revenue, tax section.
This evening members Of the associa e.
ton will be guests Of the Mems Apparel
Club at a banquet and entertainment.
The election OK officers Of the associa-
ton will be held tomorrow morning and
the final session will be held In the after
poon.

AutOist Dues Out
of Car to Escape
Pedestrians Knife

'I'I kill you" declared a peevish
pedestrian as he Jumped on the running
board of an automobile driven by Charles
Harmon, 3615 East Washington street
last night.
In his hand was long knife. He
spoke with a foreign accent. His DARK
eyes glared and his black mustache made
him look like a villain in a play. Har-
mon, VINO was driving his automobile
east in Maryland street, had almost run
over the man at Virginia avenue.
Harmon showed remarkable agility il
getting out of the automobile, without
even stopping the car, and sprinted for
police headquarters a block away.
w. S. Youngerman, 139 Boalrt ave
nue., who was riding with Harmon, told
the police he did not know anything
about stopping an automobile, but he
got busy and twisted levers and screws
in an effort to halt the car. After the
automobile Travelled a block he jerked
the key from the switch and the
automobile stopped.
When Sergeant Johnson and an emer-
gency squad reached the scene the pedes-
TRAN with the long knife and the desire
to commit murder had disappeared.

March g

The anxiety that prevailed Monday
afternoon with reference to the repara-
ton problem, gave way to a more cheer
full feeling yesterday, business inter
ests having had sufficient time to con-
slider the matter and evidently came TO
the conclusion that the matter finally
would be settled in q satisfactory man
ner, and this more confident feeling wa
reflected in a steadier stock market. But
there was still noticeable absence of 4
public demand for stocks, the demand
being mainly from the more professional
element and as soon as satisfied the tone
of the market changed and gradually
selling pressure increased.
United Fruit was one Of the active is
sues Tuesday. This stock has been rather
freely marketed recently, and has given
rise to a suggestion that the American
International Corporation was probably
Equidating its holdings, but as to this
there is absolutely nothing Of an authen-
tic nature and may be classed as one
of the ordinary market rumOrs that may
or may not be founded in fact.
From the West we are getting more
optimistic statements as to conditions OF
business. The reserve bank OF Kansas
City made mention of the improvement in
its last letter, and yesterday we had q
similar statement from a leading Chicago
banker.
There is nothing at the moment calcu-
lated to create any material increase in
market activity, II is undoubtedly In a
position technically to respond promptly
In the event Of favorable news.

JURY TO

Reputed Attempt to Influence
Juror Quiz Subject.

That the State was prepared to in

Of this matter and 1t will be carefully
investigated" said Prosecutor Evans
Ralph w. Bauman, 1901 Central ave-
nue.. who was called as prospective
juror, stated when being examined as TO
his qualifications to sit as a juror that
he was "prejudiced" because he had been
called to the office Of the headquarters
of the Shank for Mayor Club and there
had a conversation with Benjamin A.
Branson. 1902 West Twenty Sixth street,
concerning the Hill case.
Mr.. Branson has denied that he at
tempted to influence Mr. Bauman and
also states that he did not telephone for
Mr.. Bauman to come to the office.
At the time this took place In court,
Prosecutor Evans stated that he first de-
sired to investigate the charge of at
tempted jury fixing" and on investi
CATION would determine II the matter
should go before the grand jury

nesses Will be called in the next few days

FAILS TO CLEAR
PRECINCT PUZZLE
Conference of Officials Leaves
Problem to City Council.

The city precinct boundary ordinance
middle today was the cause of a confer
ence If Irving W. Lemaux, Republican
city chairman; Robert Fl. BrysOn, city
controller and right hand man of Mayor
Charle W. Jewett; County Auditor Leo
X. Fc Ter and County Attorney Harry C..
Hend ckson. with the members of the
board Of county commissioners.
The are at loss to determine the legal
steps to be taken in adding city precincts,
"r"orfiAg to Commissioner Harry D.
TuteHiler.
The Law provides precinct boundaries
may he changed sixty days preceding the
primary, and as the time has elapsed the
bound ries cannot be changed now.
The question now seems to be whether
the city boundaries as fixed by the city
council four years ago or the county
bound ries fixed by the county commits
siOners prior to the last county election
are the guide to be followed.
AnGi Ter question is whether the COM
missicner after the primary have author
ity t. add approximately twenty pre-
cincts or whether that power rests with
the eli ycouncil.
1t was agreed to take the matter up
with the city council. Mr.. HendricksOn
said about twenty new precincts are
needed to handle the increased voting
population Of the city due to equal suf-
frage.

March g.

Wheat-Belief in ample reserves Of
coarse grains has been responsible for
moderate liquidation in wheat on the
theory that private estimates of reserves
would be confirmed by the Government.
The Government estimate, as published,
Is a distinct surprise. not only because
It is larger than private estimates, but
because the figures can not be recOnctled
with previous estimates Of reserves on
Jan. l. There has been a better export
business In wheat than for some time, but
this item has been without effect as
cash wheat. in all markets is In very slow
demand and is being sent to elevators
for delivery on March contracts Weather
over the Southwest is ideal for this time
Of the year. The reported action of the
Secretary of the Treasury, relative to eX
tension Of foreign credits, certainly will
not Improve the continental demand. The
size Of the farm reserve, the slow milling
demand and the small foreign business,
together with present favorable crop out
look, all argue for lower prices In ad
dtttOn to this, also, Is the state Of mind
Of the investing public; In fact, of the
consuming public, there being no desire
to anticipate future wants. We argue
from these conditions that prices will
rule lower, but we suggest that the close
adjustment Of worlds supply warrants 8
little caution in the anticipation of de
clining values.
Corn and Oats-Elevators are princi-
pak buyers of the daily receipts and the
hedging load is being placed in the
future delivery. The report Of reserves
taken in conjunction with the size of
the visible supply does not suggest any
immediate or ultimate shortage. There
is a quiet, widespread feeling that prices
are sufficiently lower, but ut the same
time there is nothing in the situation
from which to argue higher prices.
Proyisions-The action Of provisions
was a reflection OF the strength in the
hogs. Nothing has developed to broaden
interest In the market. The prospect OF
labor trouble Will curtail new commit
ments.
