Speed Limit Is Lower.

The basic rate of subsidy applies
up to ships having speed of twelve
knots, and not up to 13 knots as the
original treaty provided. Most of the
! other notifications have been inserted
for the purpose of limiting the powers
of the shipping board and clarifying
any legislative difficulty which now
exists.
Railroads would be permitted to
own and operate ships in foreign trade
other than foreign contiguous territory
and between the United States and the
Philippine Islands, The carriers can
not enter the coastwise trade. but
there would be no barrier imposed I'M
der the revised bill upon a railroad
owned ship, engaged In the foreign
trade, passing through the Panama
| canal.
At both the White House and the
shipping board the outlook for senate
action on sui sidy is not regarded as
! good. Senators have frankly said TO
/ the President during the last few days
that the administration should be well
| satisfied witt the enactment Of tariff
| legislation and bonus legislation at
the present session The senate, the
President realizes, may be counted on
to debate subsidy for many weeks.
possibly for months, once the subject
Is brought uL In that body. The session
of congress which will open the first
Monday in December, it is pointed
out will be a short session and not
often does congress attempt to enact
important general legislation during
four-mOnths session.
The situation with respect to the
country's merchant marine very prop-
erly calls for the best thought of the
time The President and the members
of the shipping board realize this and
sincerely believe that the solution of
the problem can come only through
the application of the subsidy princl-
pie. The opposing school of thought
asserts that II the country Is ever TO
have a merchant marine Ii must be
built up without government assist
ance, and this opposing school points
10 the fact that priyateiy-owned Amer
lean shipping is now making its way
in spite Of the handicap of worldwide
competition. Robert uoiIar, who for q
quarter of a century has operated
freighters on the paciac, only recently
has reminded the government that II
1t win not interfere too much, private
ship owners will get along.
The situation thar cOnfronts the
government at this time may be
summed up as followsi 1t Is the own
er Of 700 good freight ships and sew
eral hundred ships that are of small
value or Of no value az all. II is try
Ing 10 get out Of the shipping business.
Tie TOO ships were bdilt at a cost Of
approximately $500 a ton. The best
the government is offered for them
today is $50 a ton.
At the beginning Of this calendar
year the shipping board was running
behind at t..e rate Of 100000 q
r,onth. There has been reduction
jD this deficit so that today the gov
ernmcnt on It's shipping business Is
running behind only about S3,000,000

March 10

Market students who have watched the
progress of events since the dull days of
last summer are not surprised at what
has materialized in orr security market.
That confidence would be restored was a
fOregone conclusion.
Today the public feels as optimistic of
the future as they were peSsimistic
year ago, and. while there is still a great
deal of doubt expressed with regard to
conditions in other parts of the world,
particL larly in Central and Eastern
Europe, progress will follow there just
as it has here though it may be little
slower coming.
In about a week we will probably have
the announcement of a ratification of the
treaties, which are now pending In the
Senate and, Notwithstanding many
ence that Is to follow in Europe, it will
Of necessity result in some good and at
least be a step in the direction of prog
resS.
Business in this country is moving for
ward not a in a boom, but with reason
able expansion, which means safety.
Our banking situation is in an excel
lent position and there is room for as
much accommodation as our business in
terests are likely to need for long time
to come.
But We have already accomplished
great deal in the stock markets values
have been advanced materially and there
fore we would not recommend indis-
criminate buying on the bulges. Be IRE
pared for reactions and take advantage
of them.

NEGRO, FOUND
HANGED, SEEN
ABOUT PLACE
Police Consider Theory of
Suicide in Death of
George TOmpkins.

George Tompkins. 2Os negro. 1919 Hol-
born street, whose body was found hang
ing to a tree IN Riverside Park north
Of the Casino gardens Thursday, was
seen near that part of the park both
Wednesday and Thursday. according to
detectives who are investigating.
Mrs. Chalmer Dick, living on the La
fayette pike, not more than 400 yards
from the part of the park where the
body was found, told the detectives on
Wednesday morning the negro walked
past her home In the direction of the
Cold Spring road She saw him again
Thursday. she said.
Detectives discredited theory Temp
kins was murdered elsewhere and
brought TO the spot where the body was
found. Tim McCarty, employed by the
park board as 4 truck driver, explained
the tracks OF the automobile tires found
near the scene by saying he had driven
through that part OF the park early
Thursday and the tracks were those
made by his truck.
Detectives, while admitting Tompkins
probably was murdered. also are investl-
eating 10 determine if he committed sui
eide. They point out the financial con-
dition in the little home on Holborn street
were such as to discourage the young
man who was supporting his uncle, who
IS III, an aunt and four children. The de-
tectiyes say the handkerchief tied around
Tompkins' hands was loose and argue
it would have been possible for him to
have committed suicide in such a way as
TO make his death appear a murder.

HIGHWAY BODY
OPENS BIDS ON
CEMENT SUPPLY
Proposals Indicate Paving of
State Highways Will
Cost $474,679.

Bids were opened today by the STATE
highway commission on 1.90C barrels
of cement to be used on approximately
forty eight miles Of State highway prof.
ects in various parts of the State. On
the basis of the lowest bid on each sec
tiOh of road, the cement needed would
cost approximately 474679.
Contracts were awarded March 3, for
211, 544 barrels of cement at a total cost
of $503, 1925.
The bids indicate price level approx
mately the same as that of the first
contracts let in which the Marquette and
Louisville Cement Companies reduced
their prices breaking the alleged cement
trust prices.
The lowest bids received on the follow
ing sections Of road were:
Reelsville, % miles, $500 barrels, low
est bid $24 Indiana Portland Cement
Company. (The bid was made two ways,
a price being given delivered by truck
at $3.50.
Putnamville II miles, 44.1OO barrels,
lowest bid, S2.48, Louisville Cement Com
pany
lowest bid 1922, Universal Cement Com

Pany.
The lowest bids are quoted In each Of
the foregoing sections OF road, but this
does not mean the lowest bid neces-
sarily will be accepted in every case.
In no case is the base mill price given,
and experts believe that the prices quoted
are still somewhat higher than they
should be in view Of the net mill price
Of $130 to $140. Transportation costs
vary much more than do bids of the
companies do. that are located at widely
separated points from the points Of de-

The bids represent better figure than

Wisconsin State highway commissions.

Stock Market ReUieW

NEW YORK, March 1S.-The New
New York stock market today was
featured by the fractions and indie
pendent steels.
There was the best sort of buying Of
the r. r. T. issue, based on the i'm
provement in that property.
Strength Of steels is probably as much
due to the technical position of these
shares, as to any news of the steel in
dustry.
There has been a stubborn short in
terest in Republic. CrucibIe Lackawanna
and Midvale. which has been built up
since Republic passed its preferred
dividend.
The past week has been one of the
busiest on the stock exchange in long
while.
Practically every session has seen a
turnover in excess of 100000 shares.
It seems to be the best opinion that
the public is slowly coming into the
market, although not as yet a big factor.
The pools have the stocks. but there
has been a substantial increase in brok-
ers loans over the last few weeks.
There was a further recovery in the
foreign exchange market, which carried
Sterling above $4.40. This means better
ment of the low of the last ten days
amounting to approximately IL cents.

March IS

Wheat-The usual weekend realizing
sales and slowing down of new foreign
business have characterized today's wheat
market Importing countries. are show
ing decidedly more interest in the new
crop of North American than they are IN
old wheat for immediate shipment The
amount of Argentine and Australian
wheat on ocean passage is in process OF
absorption while this is going on, ex-
port trade in old wheat may lie little
slow. SO far as United States markets
are concerned, this probably Will be onset
by decreasing receipts and visible supply
and improving milling and flour trade;
Even at the moment Southwest and
Northwest markets tell of a broadening
Of Inquiry from interior millelrs. The
new crop deliveries, notably the July,
are broadening In interest and showing
an excellent undertone. Prevailing DIS
counts of July and September under the
May are not warranted. as viewed from
the popular idea that all old wheat viii
be in demand before the new crop Is avail
able. Temporary lull in export demand
for old wheat will be more than over
come by smaller movement from the cOun-
try and the broadening Of the milling
trade. The entire market has teneath 1t
the foundation of a rather substantial eX-
port business in the new crop. This De-
Ing so, depressions from this level are
likely to be unimportant.
Corn and Oats-SOme of the more In
huential traders in corn are strongly
impressed with the idea that tbs Wis
ible supply VIII begin to decrease sharply
and that there will be no further move
ment from the country for some time,
however, this idea does not pervade the
entire trade, as the market IS, at times,
neglected. Today's market for instance,
was devoid Of any prominent demand,
therefore, yielded to moderate realizing.
There is a better distribution of corn
going on than surface indications would
suggest. This is shown by the fact
that primary receipts, since the first OF
November. are seventy three million larger
than a year ago, while the visible has not
increased in the same proportion. 1t is
becoming difficult 70 buy good oats from
Northwest. However, the present visible
supply at the United States points, is
an unwieldly load upon the market.
ProyisiOns-HOgs products are not In
clined to sympathize with reactions IN
prices Of hogs. this Is prof ably because
Of the extremely small accumulati0ns IN
warehouses and the popular Idea that
products are below a profitable manu-
featuring basis. Foreign trade, es-
peciauy for lard. should improve.

3 SUBURBS PUT
ON NEW PHONE
SERVICE BASIS
New Augusta, ClermOnt and
Acton Changed From
Toll System.

New Augusta, ClermOnt and Acton,
suburbs of indianapolis, today were put
by the public service commission on the
same basis, so far as telephone service
is concerned, as the city of Indianapolis.
The exchanges in these three towns
were a part Of the indianapolis Teie-
phone Company system, purchased by the
Indiana Bell Telephone Company. When
the consolidation was completed, instead
Of being taken into the indianapolis sys-
TEN, they were given lower rates and
charged t<zl rates to Indianapolis.
An investigation on the part Of the
public service commission showed that
g. per cent Of the subscribers in New
Augusta and 30 per cent of the subscrib-
ers in the other towns wished to be
placed on the Indianapolis basis. AS a
result they will cease to pay tolls and
Will pay the same monthly rates as paid
in indianapolis.
