DENY LivernlOre
Has Quit ssStreet"
| For Grair, Market
Brokers Say Big Ne,U
York Operator is Still
Active in Stocks.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. May 26.-Jesse L..
Ltvermore, who has made and lost
several fortunes in Wall Street. is
again the center Of discussion.
Published reports assert that he has
quit stock speculation for good. To
several anonymous brokers, however.
is attributed the information that
he is still heavily interested in a
number of specialties and that they
have placed orders for him recently.
Rumors of his retirement from the
Street to devote his attention to
grain and cotton have been heard
for some time. He is reported to
have had $10,000.000 in wheat last
year.
The reports of his retirement say
that so many stocks are listed in the
New York exchange that he feels
that an individual operators chances
for success are reduced. He is said
to regard 1t as a market Of groups
and pools, confused by many cross
currents and subject to unpredictable
action by boards of directors on
dividends.
In the grain market, based entire
ly on fundamentals, he is said to
see success for the man who studies
conditions sufficiently.
A possible basis for the reports
seems to be that he had stock tickers
removed from his private Office some
months ago and has not been. very
active lately. But in the more dis
| tant past there have been intervals
when he was completely out of the
stock market.

GERMANS SEE TROUBLE

Industria1ists Urge Adherence to

By tho Associated Press.

By tho Associated Press
BERLIN, May 26.-Serious differ
ences between capital and labor
threaten Germany during coming
years because Of the financial and
economic burdens arising from the
operation OF the Dawes plan, accord
ing to the League of German Indus
trialists. which urges the government
to continue its support of the plan

The League Of the German Indus
trialists is an organization of business

which virtually acts as a strikebreak-
ing organization whenever labor
troubles affect industries Of the nature
Of public utilities such as gas, water

The league fears that as the Dawes

occur renewed radical outbursts

NEW D|S|NFECT|NG
METHOD REPORTED
Frenchman Declares Process
Can Be Conducted With
out Material Contact.
By the Associated Press.

PARIS May .26.-DiScOvery Of a
method Of disinfecting at a distance
without material contact, by means OF
a weak antiseptic solution, is claimed
for Col. Philippe BunauVarilla, broth
er of the proprietor of LIE Matin, and
a famous engineer. His discovery was
described to the Academy of Sciences
last evening by Jean Perrin.
The results obtained in purifying
the water supply of Rheims by the ad
dition of an infinitesimal quantity of
sodium hypochlorite, said NJ. Perrin,
upset the previously accepted expla.
nation that publication was effected
by oxidation of organic matter, coin.
Gliding with the breaking up OF the
molecules Of the sodium hypochlorite
These results led Col. BunauVarilla
to formulate his hypothesis that the
molecule, in attacking organic matter
must emit rays the action of which
was analogous to that of ultraviolet
rays, creating around the field OF
chemical action an extended zone de-
structive to microbe life.
Confirmation Is Seen.
This hypothesis. it is claimed, was
fully confirmed by a series of expert
ments made in the laboratory of the
Rheims faculty of medicine. Quartz
tubes containing a weak solution OF
hypochlortte were plunged into larger
tubes containing water infected with
cultures of typhoid bacilla and were
left for "a hours.
Upon examination after that period
1t was found that the colonies of bacil
la had been reduced to an extent vary
ing from 15 to so per cent, according
to the strength or weakness of the
solution.
Col. Bunau-Varilla rendered signal
service during the World War by his
discovery of a simple method of max
ing the water supplies at the front
microbe proof and immune from in
fection, even from such virulent bac
terra as typhus.
1t was announced last December
that he had perfected an automatic
device at Rheims by which the proper
amount of sterilizing agent could be
continuously mixed with the water
flowing through n given system.

the Spanish zone to form a harka of
5000 or 1000, the greater part of
which will go to the French zone in
the region of Ouezzan, the rest to face
the Spaniards.
His propaganda section likewise is
most active. He is said to be having
his genealogy worked out to prove his

FRENCH HEADQUARTERS IN
MOROCCO (via Paris, May 26.-Abd-
el-krim's tactics, perfected in the war
against Spain, have not varied in his
operations against the French. His
emiSsaries prepare the ground by
propaganda. His war parties invade
the border territory, melting or fore
ing the tribes to the Riffian cause, then
arming them and flinging them against
the European enemy, while the Riffian
warriors remain in the rear as a re-
serve, as a guarantee against defec-
tions and as supervisors Of the new
defensive organizations - trenches,
shelters, outpoStS-which are at once
constructed.
This is what occurred in the Ouergha
Valley. One border tribe treacherous-
ly betrayed the French. Others were
forcibly enlisted by Riffian war
parties. The French blockhouses on
the hills north OF Ouergha were cut
off and surrounded. Part Of the ma
tive contingents remained behind to
besiege and starve out these block
houses. The rest pressed rapidly
southwark. Among the impressiona-
BILE natives the effervescence of disaf-
lection spread like contagion.
