New York-There was some lfQuida-
ton Of stocks from sources outside
Will street, but amounted to so little
that transactions for the day were
increased only little above previous
session. Sentiment might have been
much more Influenced by the news
were 1t not that this information was
before the government when the Ger
man ambassador was dismissed.
Traders are more interested in the day
to day or week to week movement Of
prices than investors are and so the
question is, what effect the war would
be. Selling of stocks In very small
amounts is perhaps the best answer
that could be made to any question
regarding the effect which war would
exert on the market. Without liquida-
ton the market would not go down
far and also in absence of heavy sell
to go up after the declaration of war
than to go down in the estimation Of
most of those who are undertaking to
answer this market question. They
argue that prices would be unstimu-
lated by our own entry into the war
just as they had been stimulated for
corresponding reasons by the develop
ment of the struggle in Europe.

GERMANY INVENTS
SILENT SUBMARINE

Washington May 10-Germany has
invented a silent U-boat, according to
information received here
The new German type is able to
drive quietly through the ocean
depths. creep upon its prey and dis
charge its torpedo without the victim
having the slightest knowledge of an
enemys approach.
The German "noiseless" submarine
has made ineffective the submarine
detector which the British developed
early in tire war The detector never
gave perfect results, but it did indi
cate that Uboat was within a radius
Of ten miles. though it was not able
always to locate the exact direction it
was moving
The fact of the presence of sub
marine was sufficient. however, to
cause a steamer to send out wire
less for help and the call was respond
ed to by destroyers and airplanes,
with the result that the underwater
boat was either destroyed or it was
forced to retreat
