Appointment of New Viceroy in India Highlights Policy Shift

TEETER from United Press reports that Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's influence is seen by English politicians as aiding the choice of Sir Charles Hardinge as viceroy, replacing the Earl of Minto. Hardinge, a forceful advocate, is expected to pursue a stricter regime in India amid a rising nationalist movement, with Lord Kitchener also supporting the selection amid concerns over stability. Hardinge's iron-hand approach signals a potential clash with previous viceroys and could strain the administration. In other news, a young husband, William Scholz, 21, was ordered to post bonds and pay support to his wife after a court ruling.

Wall Street Today Opens With Rack of Weakness on Rail and Industrial Stocks

New York, June 11. Opening weakness in all active railroads and industrials led to price losses ranging from fractions to over one point. After 15 minutes, fractional recoveries appeared. At 11 a.m. changes were irregular but a strong rally was forming. Government bonds unchanged, other bonds firm. Closing saw moderate improvement with losses remaining in some railroad stocks. Rally buying was largely covering shorts by room traders as outside interest remained light and professional trading dominated.
