New York, Nov. S.--Highly irregular price movements took place in today's bond market, foreign. local traction and most of the railroad issues losing ground while liens of industrial and public utility companies generally moved to higher levels.
 United States government bonds were reactionary, the new f -4's breaking be- low par for a net loss of 10 cents on S1OO and the Liberty . 1-2's dropping A cents. Losses in the other issues ranged from to 24 cents except in the case of the first 4'S which advanced 10 cents and the fourth lis, which were unchanged.
 Foreign securities again sagged un- der the depressing influence of a fur ther weakening of exchange rates. Seina 7's proved tho most vulnerable to sell ing pressure, dropping l 13 points, while losses of a point were registered by Belgian 6's and S's.l City of San Paulo S's, Danish municipal S's, series A and 5, Paris-Lyons- Mediterranean 6's and Bordeaux 6's. Three were few exceptions, particularly Italian 6.'s. and Swiss S's, each of which climbed q point, and Argentine 5:s, which moved up 1 1-2.
 In the railroad list some of the Erie issues recovered ground lost in the re- cent reaction. The convertible As, se- ries B. advanced 1 1-2 points and the series D, 1, whiIe the general Is moved up 1 3-4. The prior ken As continued under pressure, dropping ? points. Otn- CT weak spots in this division were the Seaboard Air Line refunding 5's, Balti- more and Ohio gold As, St. Paul eoa- veFtible I 1-2's, Erie eonsolidat+7 7-% Minheapofis-St Louis 4's and Baltimore and Ohio, Southwestern division I-2s, the losses ranging from to 1-2 points.
 The outstanding gain in the industrial list was the 4 If point jump in Chile Copper 7's. General Electric 5's, and Liggett and Myers 5's each moved up If points and American Writing Pa per 6's 1 3-4, while Cerro De Pasco S's, Remington Arms 6's, Cuba Cane s.s and Bethlehem Steel 5's of 1936 were If to 12 points higher at the close of the day.
 Public utility issues which stood out included Market Street railway SIS, Brooklyn Cit yrailroad firsts and Brook lyn Edison 5's. Local fractions appar- ently found something disappointing about the election of Smith because the Brooklyn Rapid Transit certificates broke 5 1-2 points and the 7's, certif- cate 7's, and stamped 7's were down to If.

 Steel shares became strong and ac- tive towards the close in response to brisk rally in United States Steel com mon, which carried it three points above Mondays closing level. Slightly smaller gains were recorded by Cruel ble, Bethlehem B, Republic and Mid vale, while Gulf States climbed 3-S. Baldwin and Studebaker in which a large short interest is supposed to .ex- ist, also made good gains in the final hour.
 Some of the specialties which got in- to new high ground were Woolwofth, May Department Stores and Fisher Body. Railroad shares showed mixed changes, mainly unimportant, but ter

There were a few weak spots, notably General Asphalt, which was offered freely because of it's report ed unsatisfactory earnings outlook, dropping more than 4 points. Total sales were S6o,20& shares. Call money opened at per cent, but advanced to 5 1-3 and then to 6, where ! it closed.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, Ney S.-Wheat averaged lower in price today chiefly as result of a decline at Liverpool and because of reports that grain purchases made for Italy and Germany had been can celled. The wheat market closed un- settled. I net lower to IS advance, with December 115 Is to 1.15 ,1-4 and May 1.15 to 1.15 1-3. Corn gained 3-S@ 1-2 to 3-4@7-S; oats finished. unchanged to 1-4c higher and provisions at rise of ' to 12c.
 Bears in the wheat market had an advantage early owing to weakness of Liverpool quotations, but this advantage
 was partly offset later by strength in
 the New York cotton market and in
 securities Then bulge in the price
 of corn here had a temporary stimulat- ing effect on wheat values. The gains in wheat, however, were more than wiped out during the final hour when
 gossip became current that Italy had bought and that Germany had can- celled corn.
 With Francs and marks at the lowest figures on record, wheat displayed but little power to rally at the last. Never theless a fair amount of export business ! was announced as having been put through at the seaboard,' and export sales were also noted as having been made at Omaha and here. A decrease of nearly 6,00U,0o0 bushels inc the ! worlds available supply was practical ly ignored. Strength in the corn market and' in oats was due largely to expectance of
 bullish government crop as to corn
 New high price records for the season were touched As a matter of fact,
 however, government figures on' the yield of corn were nearly o0,0ee, ,0oe bushels ain excess of private estimates Provisions were dull but finally climb ed a little in line with hogs and an ad- Evance in lard at Liverpool.

Annapolis, Md, Nov. Slight was shed on the attitude of nifdshfpmen to- ward hazing and the defense which is to be made by the first elasstaeu charged with it by the testimony today of Mid shipman Ebert L. Fryberger of Colora- do, first classman, at the courtmaFtial which is trying First Classmasi John P. Gilmer, IT,, of San Diego, Cal, on that charge. Fryberger is also under charges
 It was developed by the witness that members of the first class had met during the summer cruise and discussed their attitude and aeticns toward the new mid
 shipnen in the light of letter which Superintendent Wilson had sent to the upper clasSmen.
 The opinion of the cliss, Fryberge. said, was that the statement of the super intendeut that it is the mission of the seniors in the naval service to instruct and train juniors" permitted a certain amount of questioning of the 'piebes" It was also thought, he said, that the l assignment of physieai stunts was in the
 nature of training in that line.

New York, Nov. S.-Except in a very few special issues, which had a direct interest at stake, prices in today's stock market continued to move to higher gtound in virtual disregard of the re- salts of the general election. Experi- mental short selling imparted a reac- tionary tone to opening prices, but spec lfiators for the advance soon obtained control of the market and rallied the list after stagfng a series of bullsn demonstrations in few individual sFiareS.
 Chief interest in the financial connlu- afty eentered today on a sharp 100 toiut rise in cotton prices and the fur lher depreciation of French,S Belgian and Gefn1an exchanges to new low lev els for the year. The jump in cotton. which was equivalent to $5 bale, fol- lowed publication of the governments ginning report showing S,139,S5y bales ginned to November l.
 Ths sharp break in the allied conti- nentai exchanges was attributed to the Increasingly serious financial and eco homie outlook of those countries as a result Of the failure of the Berlin rep arations conference to effect q satisfac- tory method of payment and @ evolve as successful scheme for the economic rehabilitation of Germany. French ftancs dropped nearly 1-2 a cent to 6.10 cents each as compared with 7.e3 a week ago and Belgian francs dropped even moro to 5.5S cents each as against G.55 last week German marks coTtin- ued their course towards the vanishing point. being quoted at 1 S-16 cents a hundred. Sterling, however. was strong, rising to $4.46, a gain of l 3-S cents over MondAy night.
 The elections greatest surprise to Wall street was the extent of the den1- ocratic victory. While this was inter preted as due, in part, to dissatisfac- tion with the Fordney-McCun1be tariff, stocks of companies mostly benefited by this legislation faiied to be appfeciabiy influenced by the election. results. Traders argued that many months must elapse before any widespread change in tariff rates could be effected and that 1t was too early to anticipate them at this time.
 Trading in socks was more quiet than usual Public utility issues were among the most active. buying being based on the theory that, with the efee- ,t,on out of the way, several companies can now go ahead with their recapital- ization plans.

RELATIVELY THEORY

II Einstein's theory Is to me
substantiated, every miIlimeter,
even to the two-hundredth fraction
OF the same, must be accurately
computed in measuring the posi-
tions Of the stars. and this will be
a formidable task in the case of
Photographic plates of such di-
mensions.
At least six months will be con-
sumed in computing these meas
urements, which serve to prove or
disprove one of Einstein's deduc.
tions, namely; that the rays Of
light from a distant star undergo
a noticeable DETECTION as they pass
near the sun.
TASK FOR ASTRONOMERS.
Absolute proof of this can only
be secured during a total eclipse
of the sun. as under these condi-
tions the light Of the sun is hid
den by that Of the moon, thus
making It possible to photograph
the stars in the vicinity of the SUM-
To deduce this proof from the
Photographic plates made during
the coming eclipse viii be the
outstanding task of the astrono-
mers taking part in the expedition.
DR.. Hoppmann, of the Bonn
University, who will be one OF
the party, makes brief survey of
Einstein's activity since 1910. the
year IN which his theory of relativ-
ity was formulated, although It
was not published until 1915,
In the meantime, an expedition

eclipse of the Crimea was frustra-
ted by the outbreak Of the war.
Four years later. the English
astronomer. Eddington. attempted
to confirm the relatively theory on
the Island Of Principe, but despite
the comparative success OF the en-
terprise. there were certain gaps
in the evidence which prevented it
from being entirely satisfactory
from scientific standpoint.
As the Einstein theory Of rela-
tivity is easily the most important
scientific discovery of recent de-
cades. the eyes of the scientific
world will follow with interest the
fresh attempt to substantiate and
establish this theory.
