STEELS, COPPER,
OILS, RUBBERN
LEADOF MARKET
Stock Sales on Most Active
Day of Year Exceed
Million Shares.
OFFERINGS ABSORBED
IA Special TO Indiana Daily Times
" and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
BY MONITOR.

ny tAONALOAAs
NEW YORK, March 1s.-In the most
active and broadest market seen this
year, prices Of many stocks advanced
to new high levels since the Inauguration
Of the period of defason. Tranaetions
tOtsled more than a million shares and
gains ranged from q fraction to several
points. The market was called upon to
absorb profit taking sales in large vol
ume, but these offerings were taken in
a manner calculated to impress the most
skeptical that an active public follow
ing has been attracted TO the speculative
arena.
Many Of the steels, the copper stocks
the oils, rubbers- and tires, and a long
list Of speciaIties were points of strength.
The passing of the dividend on the com
mon stock Of the Crucible Steel Com
pany was quite in line with the expecta-
lions Of the financial district and fol-
lowing q furry at the opening the stock
regained all of the ground it had lost.
The passing Of the dividend on Tidewa-
ter on was a surprise, but the stock had
a narrow market and the effect of this
action SCOT was lost in the announcement
that the price OF crude oil in the Mexia
field has been advanced - cents per bar
rel. This brought active buying into
the other domestic oil shares, being con-
strued as an indication Of advances TO
come IN the midcOntinent field. The rail
roads did not take a prominent part in
the days activities, being still under
the influence Of the action by the Great
Northern directors and the possibility
Of similar action being taken by those
of the Northern Pacific who meet next
Wednesday.
Call money after opening and renewing
at S1a per cert, declined to 8 per cent,
and it was reported that considerable
sums remained unloaned at the close. OF
more significance was the decline in
rates for time money, thirty-day loans
on all industrial collateral being re-
corded at + per cent, and ninety-day
money was offered freely at IA per cent.
Foreign exchanges generally were
strong, sterling advancing about "a
cents. and the continental currencies
gaining proportionateiy. The cotton
market was firm on more favorable
weather advices. An advance Of 3 cents
per bushel in wheat was attributed to
higher prices in foreign unsatisfactory
right, 1922, by Public Ledger Com
pany.

CITY MAY TAKE
FAIRVIEW PARK
FOR TAX CLAIM
Mayor FavOrs Proposal of
Corporation Counsel to
Accept Offer.
UNIVERSITY IS PLANNED

Believing the city can win its suit for
$4,000 back franchise tax from the In
dianapOlis Street Railway Company If it
is pressed, Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank
said today Corporation Counsel Taylor
E. Groninger has proposed the city nego-
tate with the company for the gift Of
Fairview Park and the establishment of
a crosstown line in Michigan street from
Noble to Blake street in return for dis
missal of the city's claim. The mayor
said he agreed with Mr.. Groninger and
intends to carry out the plan, If pos
sible.
II the city comes into possession Of
Fairview Park, the mayor said, most Of
it will be offered to Butler College as a
site for the establishment of a great
institution to be known as the University
Of indianapolis. The city would retain
only enough Of the land for the establish
ment Of playground and various bOule-
Yards.
WOULD COOPERATE
WITH COLLEGE.
In addition to giving Butler College the
land, the city would desire to work with
the college authorities in the establish
ment of the university Mr. Shank said
The $4,000 suit was filed in county
court shortly before the close of th.
Jewett adminstratio ion last year. ii is
alleged in it the company owes the SUM
because it defaulted payment Of the al
nuaI instalment of $4,000 last spring
The company contends it does not owe
the money because It has surrendered the
franchise under which it agreed to pay it.
Mr.. Groninger believes, however, since the
payment fell due and was defaulted about
thirty days before the franchise was
given up the company can be forced to
pay the entire amount. Under the fran
chise, S50O000 was to become due if any
annual payment were missed.
WILL PUSH TRACK
PAVING ISSUE.
AS soon as the fight upon the Indl-
ana Electric Corporation merger, now in
progress in Superior Court, Room ., be-
comes less pressing, the mayor said, he
and Mr. Groninger viii attempt to have
settled the question of whether the city
can force the street railway company to
pave between It's tracks This question
has been debated since the surrender Of
the franchise. The franchise required the
company to lay and maintain track pave
ment whenever the rest Of the street was
paved.
The mayor said he wished to find out
VINO has to pave the tracks as soon as
possible, because some valuable streets
are likely to go TO pieces if the center
portion is not paved.

Pocatello Man Dies
at Indian Springs

Beverly L. Johnson, of Pocatello,
met his death Thursday at Indian
Springs, near American Falls, as a
result OF an attack of epilepsy while
swimming in the pool.
Mr.. Johnson was attending the
annual picnic Of the Pocatello
Shrine club at the springs. He en-
tered the pool about $50 in the
afternoon and had been swimming
and diving for short time and it
was not noticed when he disap-
peared. After diving from barrel
anchored near the center Of the
pool, Mrs. e. T.. Boaden discovered
his body lying at the bottom. Judge
p. G. Armstrong, aided by Judge 0.
R. Baum and G. G. Bowerman, sue
ceeded in taking him from the
water and Drs. F. M. Ray and w. w.
Brothers tried resuscitation meas
ures, but all efforts proved of no
avail.
The physicians stated that John
son had previously been treated for
epilepsy and that as there was but
approximately half cup of water in
the lungs, he undoubtedly came to
mis- death from suffocation.
The deceased was twenty-seven
years of age and had been employed
as clerk in the yard office of the
Oregon Short Line. He wa "a
member Of the Ell Korah temple of
Boise. Johnson resided with his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. B. L. Johnson,
