BIG BEAR DRIVE IN STOCK MARKET Values Shrink as Selling Wave Spreads—New Lows. NEW YORK, July 27.—Pressure continued against the stock market at Its opening today, initial trades showing losses of fractions to four points. The chief feature of the trading was the absence of demands from every source. The only buying came from coverings of shorts. There vaa continued discussion of the money 'market and of conditions in the automobile Industry. The fixing of the new rate of call money at S per cent was regarded as increasing the money tension. The decline through the first hour was chiefly due to pressure from bearish sources. General Motors fell 1 point to 22%. anew low record. Losses of about a point were sustained in the other railroad issues. The attack on prices continued during the first hour and the entire list made new lows on the decline. Steel dropped to 88%, a full point below the previous low of the year, made in May last. * j Mexican oil stocks also were hard hit. The rapid fall in prices of these is- j sues was explained by the speculative long account, which has been active dur- I lng the last month. The market rallied sharply in the early afternoon, the recovery amounting to as much as 3 points in the most active issues. Mexican Petroleum, after an j early low of dose to 170, got up to ITU. Heavy selling of General Motors featured the late afternoon trading. The ; stock dropped over 2 points to anew low record of 2094. The rest of the list showed a rallying j tendency. Steel common rising up ore* a point from the low to SS%. An easing off in the call money rate ; to S per cent at the close promoted a covering movement. Government bonds closed unchanged and railway and other bonds steady. * Total sales of stocks today were 1.123.- , 200 shares; bonds., $14,036,000.

ABRUPT DECLINE IN GRAIN PRICES Stop-Loss Orders Act as Brake —Provisions Rise. CHICAGO, July 27.—Wheat futures broke as much as 12 cents and corn and oats over 5 cents on the board of trade today. Calls for Increased margins over night caused a sharply lower opening, and induced continued liquidation which ran Into stop loss orders. At the decline the local element was convinced the selling had been overdone find shorts were disposed to cover and take profits, figuring that the stop loss orders, wirtt commission houses had been greatly reduced in this week's slump, thereby strengthening the. technical position of the murket. Sentiment continued mixed, as no news warranted a buying movement. Prices worked slowly back to around the opening level, until the final half hour, when renewed liquidation carried the whole list to new low levels. —July 27 (By Thomson & McKinnon.) The wheat market started lower and kept under Monday’s prices all day, mainly on account of favorable reports being received from the winter wheat country, where some estimates on the Kansas crop ran as high as 175,000,000 bushels. Southwestern points were reported as being free sellers of wheat, even at the decline. Many fresh rust reports from spring wheat countries were received, but the close was under heavy pressure, carrying all the markets with it. Heavy calls upon the oountry for protection on long corn, coupled with almost perfect weather conditions, brought about considerable pressure early, but the buying to take profits was insistent. There were also a number of local traders willing to make purchases for an upward reaction. The lower range of cash values for all grains now brings about free offerings on the bulges. While being unable to locate any reason for any permanent change for the better In corn values, we question the wisdom of making any fresh commitments on the short side until the market has had some rally. Premiums for cash corn were a little better. The closing weakness in wheat prevented corn from bqMlng any advances and renewed the selling Oats—Sharp liquidation made a very weak market early, especially in July, but prices for September and December are at a figure now that should mean hesitation about sales, except from more favorable figures than pxlst today.

WOULD RECORD FINGER PRINTS OF ALL BABIES New York Official Suggests It as Life-Long, Infallible Identification. EDUCATION IS REQUIRED NEW YORK, July 27.—A plan to make available an Infallible life-long method 'or providing Identification, prevent the burial of a body ns that of some other Yerson, limit opportunity of fraud, and *ruard Individuals is advanced by offl"ials here, who suggest that physicians •lie infant finger prints with birth certificates. The finger print idea for babies was cuggested by Deputy Police Commisnioner Faurot, finger print expert of the New York police department and Acting Captain John H. Ayres, head of the Lureau of missing persons, at an investigation into the circumstances under vhleh an undertaker obtained a woman’s body from th morgue and buried it without the knowledge ofyh?r relatives. The case under investigation was the burial of Mrs. Julia Laufe, a widow, who died in a furnished room, Feb. 18, and whose body was takpn to the morgue. After it had been there for ten (lays It was burled by William J. Dargeon. * Mrs. Elizabeth Lyons, a sister of Mrs. Laute, said did not know of tier sister's death until an Insurance company notified her that a bill for $225 had been presented by the undertaker. She complained to the health department. PROJECT THOITGT TO BE TIMELY. The baby finger printing Is thought to be timely, considering the mistakes 'n identification that are being made from time to time. To have the system favorably considered by the public would require some education. The mention of finger printing suggests a criminal process whereas finger printing often means safeguarding the individual and might mean the aav'.ng of a fortune. To require the filing of infant finger prints as part of the department of health record would require a change in the sanitary code. “The finger prints of infants would prove of inestimable value in many ways," said a physician. “We would have identification records that would stand a legal tost. “The ramification* of the system would be far-reaching and the benefit* many. “For Instance, a baby is kidnapped. Month* or years later a child is found in the south or the northwest and the authorities believe it to be the missing child. “The kidnappers Insist that the child Is really theirs. IDENTIFY BY UNGER PRINTS. “The authorities of the other city call upon the health department here for the finger prints of the missing baby. "The child Is Identified beyond all question of doubt and restored to Its parent*. .“The plan appeals to me as feasible and of merit, but, as 1 have said, it wotitild require -education to tiring many to that way of thinking. “We have got to disassociate fingerprinting from crime.” | Another suggestion to insure proper Identification was made by ('apt Ayres He said every person, particularly if woman, should carry some means of Idntiflcatlon, for example, a name plain l !y marked on the clothing. The need of this sort of thing, Capt.

Ayres said, was shown by the fact that bodies of prominent persons had been held unclaimed In the morgue for several days as unidentified dc. and. The case of Tim Sullivan was recalled. . Dr. Monaghan said such a requirement well might be made part of the sanitary code, but he admitted the difficulty of enforcing such a law and collecting penalties for failure to obey it. London Is Going Sour With Sugar on Spree LONDON, July 27.—A prominent firm of Jam manufacturers has announced its intention of closing down three of Its factories owing to the high price of sugar. The world shortage of sugar has been rendered even more acute, according to British authorities, by the increased consumption of the product in the United States, owing chiefly to the enactment of the prohibition law. It Is, therefore, thought that the action •>f the jam manufacturers may merely re suit in the sugar being diverted to another country at a higher price. In Great Britain at present the price )f sugar is 1 shilling 2 pence per pound (28 cents at the old rate of exchange), and it is expected that at an early date the prlco will be increased to 36 cents a pound. Before the xvar the price of sugar in England was 4 cents a pound. Paris Now to Set Styles for Males PARIS, July 27.—Paria, having been the supremacy in feminine styles world, is now out for supremacy in togging out men. The first suggestion from the French tailors comes in the form of a proposal from Pierre Balmana that there be more individualism in evening clothes for men, “I don’t favor red or violet or blue evening dress," says Balmana, "though I have heard some radical proposals like that. "But certainly something should be done to get away from the sombre tone* ot men's evening clothes as they are at present. “Right now it is hard to pick youi best friend in a crowd all in black and white. "What I favor is a fancy vest, a fancy tie, or a fancy lining of some sort, each man to pick the color that suits him best.” y r^jOTRY&PRACTia \ #i~oA'S(JCCESSFUL INVESm \ Si r ;I '. *SSrg-J.
