MAYOR THOMPSON'S
CONDITION DECLARED
BETTER AT HOSPITAL
Continued From First Page.l

tons had arisen, that the temperature
and pulse were within the range or
dinarily seen In such cases and that
while he was not out Of danger he was
reacting as well as could be expected
under the circumstances.
The mayors first question after he
awoke was about the speech which ne
had hoped to deliver on behalf of j.
Hamilton Lewis, Democratic candidate
for Senator. at political mass meeting
yesterday, but which was read to the
audience for him. He wanted to know
how his speech was received, and If
any of the papers had printed it. When
told that they did not publish the talk
he said, IT didn't think they would"
The speech was a bitter attack on
the Chicago Tribune and its present
and past publishers, as well as against
Ruth Hanna Mccormick, Republican
senatorial candidate. The mayor, q
Republican, said he had decided to sup
port the Democratic aspirant because
he was wet.
Not Always Certain Symptom.
The presence Of free fluid in the
abdomen gave rise to the fear of
peritonitis, but this Is not always
certain symptom of this complication.
DR.. Milton M. Ports, one Of three
surgeons who attended the stricken
mayor, reported.
Meanwhile the senatorial campaign
rolled on toward its climax next Tues
day, with Mrs. Mccormick, James
Hamilton Lewis, the Democratic nomi-
nee, to whose support the mayor had
turned. and Mrs. Lottie O'Neill, indie
pendent candidate, fighting 1t out on
the Hastings of Chicago.
Illinois law provides that mayoralty
vacancies Of less than a year may be
filled by city councils, and this, II neces-
sary, would apply in the case of Mayor
Thompson. as his present term Of ONCE
would expire next April.

The 500, 00o, 900 Treasury program Of

cludes all projects under way or to be
initiated before January /. viii be en-
larged by pushing ahead during the
Winter months the major part of re-
pair work on Federal structures which
ordinarily would be spread over the
entire year. Also appropriations will be
sought as early as possible from Con-
greSS for construction Of so building
sites for which no provision has yet
been made. The cost of borings and
surveys preliminary to calling for
construction bids on these will be borne
by funds now available, so there may
be no delay when the. BUILDING ap-

Work to Cost Billion.
An administration summary Of work
now under way or soon to be under
taken with Federal funds has de-
veloped q total of expenditures ap-
preaching the $1,000, 100000 mark.

tract at 1857, 1000, and the total of

January.
Repairs to Be Extended.
The policy against depression of cur
rent wage levels by holders of Govern
ment contracts, has been held all along
by the Treasury, but Secretary Mellon

serted in the Governments specifica-
tons for building, notifying bidders Of
the disfavor with which the Treasury
will look upon any departure by the
contractor from the well known policy
of the Government to maintain exist
ing rates of wages"
The repair Of Federal buildings
planned for the next three months will
be extended to the limit of funds avail
able for the purpose.
On top of the Treasury Building plans
the Navy Department yesterday COM
pleted a program of construction at its
shore stations which will involve an
outlay of $14,000,000. This construc-
ton involving buildings and the util-
tiles essential to navy yards and other
stations Is to be launched during the
Winter.

Pivotal Issues Meet Support

spirits held at low ebb today, although
heavy oversubscription of the German
bond issue and predictions of prompt
disposal of the tariff measure, at last
were regarded with satisfaction, If not
with enthusiasm. Liquidation still
poured into the stock market during
the forenoon, but better support APP
peared, and most of the 2-to-5 point
losses in important stocks were recov-
cred.
Weakness in Commodities.
Renewed weakness in copper metal
which sank a of / cent to 1894 cents
a pound on publication of the June
statistics, showing a moderate increase
in stocks again served to turn the spot
light on the somewhat steadier, but still
none too steady, commodity price struc-
ture. Renewed heaviness of wheat did
not help the stock market. While. with
the recent decline in sterling, banking
quarters had not looked for a further
reduction in the Bank of Englands rate
this week the fact that the rate was
unchanged caused some disappointment
in speculative circles
The severe break in stocks, Yesterday
caused considerable more jettisoning OF
weakened marginal accounts today
which, together with further bear raids
ana unIoadlng by investors suffering
from pesSimiSm, sent a wide assortment
of issues to new lows for the year, in
Guiding such issues as American Tele-
phone, New York Central, Baltimore
and Ohio, Chesapeake and Ohio, Inter-
national Telephone. Chrysler, Stude-
baker, Nash and Sears Roebuck. Short

around midday, however, and moderate
recoveries appeared in pivotal shares
Trading was in heavy volume, the

Money was so plentiful that the 8
per cent call loan rate on the Stock Ex-
change was cut to 2la per cent for

appeared that Wall Street might ex-
perience another flood of credit as 1t
did during the Treasury financing of

cally changed, however, its effects,
normally tonic, are problematical.
