BY ELMER C. WALZER -fir*; Financial Editor NEW YORK, April 11.—While Richard Whitney, president of the New York Stock Exchange, was telling members of the senate banking and currency committee there were no bear raids discernible on the exchange and that present short selling did not depress prices, the stock market again gave way under steady liquidation and the whole list around noon was in new low ground •ince the oubreak of the World war. Selling was resumed at the outset following a brief period of strength Saturday, when a few amateur shorts became frightened at the senate investigation and covered. Recent Gains Wiped Out By noon all of Saturday's gains were wiped out and the averages were well under the levels at which they closed on Friday night. General Motors led the decline, breaking into record low territory for the present shares at 11*4, off IVi points from the previous close. Liquidation In this issue soon spread to the entire market. Before noon Steel common was down to anew low since 1908, at 33, ofl 1% from the previous close. American Can made anew low for the major decline at 49%, off 3. Auburn was at anew low at 48 ',, off 4%. Rails Make New Lows Among other issues to break into new low ground for the bear market. were Dupont 34%, off 2%; General Electric 14*4, off 1; Woolworth 38*4. off 2: Electric Auto-Lite 13%, off 1%, and Consolidated Gas 49 4, off 3 points. The whole railroad list was in record low terrritory for the DowJones average compilation, which was begun in November. 1896. Among the issues to make new lows in the carrier section were: Chesapeake <fc Ohio 13%, off %; New York Central 204, off 1%; Union Pacific 55*4, off 2%; Pennsylvania 12*4, off *4; New Haven 13*4, off 2*4, and Atchison 49%, off 2'4. Bonds turned irregularly lower in all divisions except United States government issues, which continued to attract investors. Wheat was bid up fractionally while cotton eased 50 cents a bale.

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’’ which appeared in Saturday's Times: The Most Deadly American Tistoleer—Wild Bill" Hickok, t whose real name was James Butler Hickok, had the reputation of being a .most deadly shot with pistol and rifle. His famous fight with the McCanlcs gang took place on July 12, 1861, at Rock Creek, Neb. In this affray “Wild Bill is said to have killed five men. Some versions state the number of victims to have been as high as ten, but after a review of the evidence I' am inclined to favor a more conservative account of the result. A City and Its City Hall in Different States—For reasons of topography, the site of the present city of Yuma, Ariz., was picked as the only possible ferry crossing of the Colorado river on the southern route, during the California gold rush, in 1848. Then the south bank of the Colorado river became the nucleus of the present city of Yuma, Ariz., although it lay beyond the Arizona-California boundary line, as fixed in the treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo between the United States and Mexico in 1848 (by which Mexico ceded California to the United States). This line received further official recognition when the United States congress passed the enabling act of 1850. making California a member state of the Union. The present city hall of Yuma is situated on that strip of territory assigned to California in both mentioned acts. It is a fact that comparatively recently the collector of taxes for San Diego county (predecessors of Imperial-county), California, made a determined attempt to collect taxes on this portion of Yuma occupancy. He was jailed and the attempt was never renewed. Tuesday—An Architectural Lie. Births Girls Harry and Sophie Smissen, city hospital. Harvey and Bessie Bailey, 223 South Butler.

GRAIN FUTURES SHOW STRONG TRADING RANGE Bullish Crop, Cable News Encouraging Factors in Upturn. BY HAROLD E. RAIN'VILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, April 11.—Wheat opened firm and fractionally higher on the Board of Trade today with a good class of buying and few offers. Trading was not very hcavv. however, at the start Steadiness in stock and at Liverpool where there was a sustained continental demand, and the absence of rains in the southwest were encouraging factors. Traders were inclined to go slow for the time being. Corn was firm with wheat and oats steady but dull. Opening Is Strong At the opening wheat was 4 to \ cent higher, corn unchanged to 4 cent higher and oats unchanged. Provisions were very slow. Liverpool was about as due and steady, f,% to 4 cent higher at midafternoon. Active traders expect wheat to lead a general rally in grain, commodities and stocks. Last Friday's break put corn in a strong technical position and prices rallied with wheat. Cash Oats Active Chicago and Buenos Aires prices are about even which leads to some hope of an export outlet for United States. The country is restricting offerings of cash corn, holding for better prices. The cash demand for oats is running high. On last Saturday, usually a dull day, the east took 84,000 bushels. Futures were strong with the other grains. Chicago Grain Range —April 11WHEAT— Prev. High. Low. 11:00. close.

In the Cotton Markets (Bv Thomson A McKinnoni NEW YORK. April 9.—ln response to good cables, cotton was 17 points higher on the opening. Half of the advance was lost in the first hour as the result of profittaking and professional selling. The weather in the south is favorable. Sentiment is against cotton for the present. Traders feel that there is plenty of time to change, should conditions warrant it. From our point of view cotton should be purchased on reactions, as we feel that the small use of fertilizer this year points to a small crop. CHICAGO —April 9 High. Low.
