BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, May 29.—Stocks turned lregular again in the second hour today following a break in railroad chares and weakness in special isues. Earlier the list moved ahead under the leadership of United States Steel, which rose to 93% from the previous close. Much of the early buying was short covering in advance of the two-day shutdown ahead. Some betterment in sentiment was discernible as a result of the action of the Austrian parliament in passing a bill providing for government guarantee of loans to aid the CfreditAnstalt. Rails Show Losses The effects of these factors soon wore off when adverse reports on railroad earnings came to light. Roads reporting so far for April had net operating income 37 per cent under April, 1930. Losses In the carrier group ranged to nearly 3 points. New York Central made anew low since 1922 at 79%, off 2%, while record lows were made by Chesapeake & Ohio, Chesapeake Corporation and Alleghany Corporation, with losses ranging to more than a point. St. Louis-San Francisco broke below 12 for the first time in more than ten years. Atchison was down nearly 3 points at 144%. Steel Comes Back Around noon Steel common was back to 92, up 1; American Can, 96%, unchanged; Case, 67%, up 1%, and General Electric, 39%, up %. Earlier in the day these issues had been up 1 to 3 points. Goodyear Tire and Rubber was very weak, breaking to 34%, off 1% points from the previous close. National Cash Register, Borden and a few other special issues dropped to new lows for the bear market. Auburn Auto dipped to 160, off 9% points net. Utilities held small parts of early gains.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” whitfh appeared in Thursday’s Times: Jacques Boerhave was Executed for Murder Committed 87 Years Before Jacques Boerhave of Xanten, died on the execution’s block in Hanover, Germany, in 1844, after royal clemency was denied him by King Ernst, The murder for which the defendant was convicted occurred in 1757. It came to light when the victim’s skull was dug up accidentally and it was discovered that a long rusty nail still imbedded in the skull was the cause of the death. Ownership of the nail was traced to Boerhave, who was 104 years old at the time he was executed. See—“Jahrbucher of Xanten, Auszug, Vol. 2, pp. 12-14.
