a fair demand at the lower figures. The

further decline In Chicago options. Oats
had a ready sate at prices 1 to 1 4 cents
oi'f. Rye was 1 to 2 cents lower and
barley unchanged to 1 cent up. There
was not enough wheat sold on which to
baso quotations. Demand was very light.

the Day
FINANCIAL
New York, Feb. 18, Uncertainty and
consequent Irregularity' of prices marked
sluggish trading in stock exchunge to
day, the action reflecting none of the
previous day's public Interest, activity or
breadth.
Motors and some minor or unimportant
specialties comprised the firm to strong
Issues and oils were again variably de
pressed on profit-taking and bearish pres
sures. The net result represented little
more than conflicting views ef cliques
and pools.
Almost the sole hopeful feature was
the relative strength of rails, buying ot
that group at Intervals including most of
the representative shares in the granger,
transcontinental and coal divisions at 1
to 1 point gains.
Ralls were almost the only shsrea to
retain a fair proportion of their advance
In the selling movement of the last hour,
which virtually effaced General Motora'
extreme rise of four points and effected
moderate unsettlement elsewhere.
United States Steel closed at a loss of
virtually a point after having made a
slight gain, other steels and equipments
reacted one to three points with Marine
preferred and Mexican Petroleum's fur
ther reversal extended to other oils. Early
gains of one to two points In local trans
actions were held and popular tobaccos
closed at irregular advances.
Recent mixed conditions in the bond
market continued, speculative rails show
ing further heaviness, while local trac
tions issues responded to the strength ot
allies. Liberty bonds steadied, but inter
national war issues lacked snap. Old cou
pon 4s gained per cent on sale.

AFTEITBATTLE
More Than 30 Shots Ex
changed Before Roy Green,
Wanted for Burglary,
Is Caught.
A running battle between a dan
gerous highwayman and burglar of
long police record and two officers
in which more than 30 shots were
exchanged ended yesterday with
the wounding and capture of the
criminal, Roy Green, 34, who
wanted in connection with the burg,
lary of the Raderiner Grocery com
pany, 2404 Fort street, on Febru
ary 6.
Acting on orders of Chief of De
tectives Dunn, Officers Art Cooper
and Ed Vanous searched the neigh
borhood of Sixteenth and Nicholas
streets", where Green had been seen
in company of a woman.
Opened Fire on Officers'.
The officers, who both wore uni
forms, were seen by Green .when
they approached the corner and at
once were greeted by a shower of
bullets. A running battle devel
oped. Ureen tried to make his escape
by running east in the direction of
the nearby railroad yards. The offi
cers followed in pursuit.
Hiding behind several oil tanks.
Green reloaded his gun, a .44 cali
ber six-shooter border rancher re
volver, and using the tanks as shel
ter, continued to fire upon the offi
cers. A well directed shot of Officer
Cooper struck the criminal in the
right arm and sent the revolver fly
ing to the ground. Weaponless,
Green threw up his hands and sur
rendered to the officers. Green, who
is well dressed and resembles in ap
pearance a traveling salesman, has
served terms for murder, highway
robbery and manslaughter in the
Iowa state penitentiary at Fort
Madison, la., and for burglary in
the Nebraska state penitentiary.
Police officials believe that Green
committed the "job" at the grocery
store with the aid of Marion DeLor,
several times convicted highway
robber, who escaped abou,t a week
ago after he was engaged in a run
ning battle with police officials.
DeLor was wounded bv Detective
Roy Wade in May, 1913, after lie
held up and robbed a Council Bluffs
business man near the Omaha clul
At that time DeLor was taken to
the county hospital for treatment.
While confined in the hospital he
made his escape, but was later re
captured, convicted and sentenced
to a term in the state penitentiary.
Robbery Netted About $900.
The store of the Radeziner Gro
cery company was rob'.ed of $250 in
cash, $450 in Liberty bonds and sev
eral hundred dollars in merchandise.
Officers who visited Green's room
at 1537 North Sixteenth street,
which he had only engaged this
morning, after arriving from Kan
sas City late Monday right, found
postoffice money order blanks, a
United States deputy marshal's
badge, nitroglycerine. dynamite
caps, several suits of apparently
stolen clothing.
The postal money orders bore the
name of Sheffield, Mo., indicating
that Green had robbed the postoffice
there.
' The criminal was taken to the
Lord Lister hospital for treatment.
He is under constant guard of two
officers.
