Bu United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 17.—Consideration Involved in the recent advance in the rediscount rate to 4 per cent at this center has been causing Wall Street to adopt an Increasingly cautious attitutde and this tendency was reflected In heavy selling of stocks today. Traders who were ready to throw overboard their long holdings on the signs of hesitation in the general list, made large offerings when common and General Motors developed reactionary tendencies. This liquidation added momentum to the downward trend which set in toward noon after steel had established a further record high at 159%. In view of the pressure on steel the financial community devoted considerable attention to a statement that well-informed interests were not looking for a stock distribution either in October or January. As heavy long positions had been built up In steel in the expectations of a general melon by early next year a flood of selling was precipitated and a sharp break occurred in the premier industrial. This decline was accompanied by heavy selling of General Motors Du Pont. Allied Chemical. American Can, General Electric and other issues which had experienced extensive advances since the first of June. Rails also were subjected t3 concentrated pressure, but this section of the market displayed much better resistance than the industrials.

Aug. 17.—Domestic business for 1926 will exceed the $100,000,000,000 mark, it was predicted in a report made public today by the central division of the National Association of Credit Men. The report said business conditions are sound and that the credit machinery is functioning well, but warned business men to “keep their heads and not gamble with the credit system.” “In steel production and in the production of other basic commodities a high peak has been maintained even in the summer months. The bank clearings for the year will exceed the clearings of the past year. Commercial failures, while showing a small difference in number as compared with last year, yet show a substantial decrease in liabilities,” the report said.

In the Sugar Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Aue 17.—The latest weekly Cuban sugar statistics indicate further improvement in the raw market. Exports showed an increase of approximately oneK.ird of the total for the preceding week, hile stocks at Cuban shipping ports fell T sharply. Knowledge of this condition proved an offset in yesterday's trading to the easier tone of the spot market. I think advantage should be tajsen of the firm tone of the September contract to switch into the distant months. The tendency recently has been more and more in that direction.

In the Cotton Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Aug. 17.—Forty points advance and a strong close satisfied all the bulls yesterday but myself. The close was a false one and should have been higher. We will get the extra dividend today. I would l-ather buy cotton on advances than not buy it fit all. but 1 hope to be able to point out a good buying basis on some little reaction.

LOCATE PLANES BT RADIO ‘EAR’ British Air Ministry Develops New Invention. Bu Times Soecial LONDON, Aug. 17. —Technical experts of the British Air Ministry are working on a set of electrical "ears” which it is declared will enable observers on the ground to locate enemy airplanes at night regardless of the height or speed at which they are flying. Although details of the new instruments are being kept in strictest secrecy it has leaked out that experiments already made have enabled observers with the instrument to follow the movements of aircraft at an altitude of 15,000 feet and more, through every twist, turn and evolution the machine made, despite the fact that it was completely invisible. Not only has it been possible to detect the presence and location of the machine with these “ears” but listeners can further tell whether the machine Is a single Motored or ; multi-motored eirplane. ! It is expected that in the event of I war users of the instrument in connection with radio telephony will be able to do aerial sentry duty. All British machines would be advised nightly of the day’s "password.” Any machine detected by the “ears" would be communioated with by radio and required to give the password. An evasive or unsatisfactory response or no response at all would result In British pursuit machines 1 being sent up to investigate. The movements of the suspected a‘rcraft could be followed by the “ears” and informatioi as to its movements could be communicated by radio to the leader if the scout squadron enabling him to quickly track down the intruder irrespective of the darkness. If final experiments are as successful as the preliminary tests indicate they will be It is expected that the Air Ministry will establish numerous aerial listening-posts throughout the United Kingdom.

HUGE MUSEUM PLANNED Rosenwald to Reconstruct World's Industry in Miniature. Bu United Press CHICAGO. Aug. 17. —Creation of an -American industrial museum on a gigantic scale, at a value of $20,000,000, has been announced here by Julius Rosenwald, millionaire mail order philanthropist. Rosenwald has given $3,000,000 to start the creation. "I conceived the idea in Munich, when my small son would visit no other place but the industrial museum.” Rosenwald said. "There they have miniature mines, operated in every detail by dummy pigmy workers, just as the original is worked. It was fascinating. Then I began to think that the American boy has no such place to visit, and I decided to see if I couldn't get him one—the best one money can buy, where he can see how the world worked.” GOLD MINE FIRE RAGES Five Africans Dead, Five Entombed, Many Affected by Smoke.

STORM FORCES LILLIAN TO QUIT CHANNEL SWIM

By Lillian Cannon (Copyright. 1926 by NEA Service. Inc., and The Indianapolis Times) BOULOGNE, France. Aug. ,17. My first channel attempt had a most unhappy and unexpected ending early this morning, when a. violent storm arose just when I was getting nicely warmed up and was going; good. But, I am not satisfied. I have experienced the channel at its very worst, and I’m not afraid. I will try again to cross from France to England, and, if possible, to lower Gertrude Ederle’s record for the swim. The experience of being tossed about in a raging storm with lightning flashing in my eyes, thunder crashing, and my accompanying tug getting out of control, was terrible. Upon returning to Boulogne, however, I went immediately to bed to rest, and I hope that on the first favorable day this week, I will be ready to start again. For an hour and a half I did my best to show those on the tug, by a smile, that I was all right as the gale tossed me, and ear-splitting thunder followed the blinding flashes of lightning. No Progress During this time it could hardly be said that I was swimming. It was more like wading to keep afloat in the heavy sea. I could make no progress after the storm hit. though I had traveled three miles in the first hour and twenty minutes. I started at 12:55 from Gris Nez, and at 2:15 was three miles out. Then the storm hit and though I did not leave the water until 3:25 I had advanced toward my goal scarcely at all beyond the three-mile mark. The sudden breaking of the storm was a great disappointment, as the start had been made under such favorable conditions. Having been given by final coat of grease by Burgess, I walked into the water, my way lighted by flares, and found the channel unusually warm. There was a light rain, but not enough to cause discomfort or interference. All went well and Jack j Weidman, Jabez Wolffe, Helmy, Mme. Sion and others on the tug were shouting encouragement. ! Channel In Fury I knew I was making good time, and my greased body 6emed to be slipping through the water with the greatest ease. Then the wind began

By this time I realized there was nothing for me to do but abandon the attempt in the midst of such a storm. Besides, I learned later that we had been swept off our course as we battled and that my chances of success had been virtually wrecked.
