Strength and Weakness Al
ternate-S0me Rails Weak.
Specia|ties Rise.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.


Special Dispatch to Th" star.
NEW YORK, March 2-Strength and
weakness altcrnated in the stock mar
kct today, advances and declines being
, we'll divided. Perhaps more activity ap-
peared on the selling side. but 1t was
difficult to discern tend at any time.
General Motors VIZ h-.,cr supported
! than steel The 10 "~' stocks were
bid up vigorously at IT, bit the rails
dragged. one or trn ~ thcm weak.
Pressure was severe e.. r 'icago Great
Western preferred In ''-- afternoon.
This. however. did NJ; ut numer-
ous industrial s.12cia' IL III pushing
ahead
The reduction in brok@i,' loans an
nounced after the close of /, l5ineSs yes
terday was somewhat Snl2 r than the
| street had expected. and yet it could
not have been said that this disappoint-
mcnt was expressed in prices. More
attention was paid TO developments
affecting specific Issues than to general
conditions. Money renewed at a.: per
cent. unchanged.
Selling for Short Account.
There was the usual amount of
selling for short account. The shares
Of the railroads doing business in the
South were under pressure once more
/ SeabCard Air Line, common and pre-
| fcrred, made new lows for the year
and so did Atlantic Coast Line, all
| though In both instances the volume
was not especially lar Early in the
| DAY there was a SaBsing tendency IN
| other rails. st. LouiS-San Francisco
| did not hold the gain it had made
| just before the close yesterday Union
Pacific was down point and Atchison
lost almost as much.
Among the industrials there we're
other weak spots. Mack Trucks fell to
a new low for the year as it dipped
under 81. Collins and Aikman off
over points at 81 was likewise at a
new 1923 low. Liq,it'aiion in General
| Railway Signal evidently had not been
completed. for the stock slumped 4
points more to "a. a new low for the
year. Then there was heavincss in
American Smelling and Refining, in
| Greene Cananca and for time in
| Radio.
Other Side of Picture.
The other side of the picture was
represented by activity and strength in
| Universal Leaf Tobacco, which respond
| ed to intimations that larger disbursc-
ments were in store. Lambert Co. had
sharp run up and gain was record
ed simultaneously in Lem & Fink.
| Coca Cola was strong. Macy &, Co.
had spectacular rise of over 20 points
as 1t sold above $40. This stock went
up Is points in the preceding session.
| There was curious irregular move
ment in the sugars. South Porto Rico
was strong with An advance of over a
| point. while American Sugar Refining
! sold Oft an equal amount. The oils
did not do as well as earlier in the
week. American Republics turned
downward and General Asphalt and
| Houston Oil lost ground.

SUICIDE TRIAL
UNSUCCESSFUL

Mrs. Jack Crane, who lives on
North Third street, lies in the
Las Vegas Hospital with a gaping
wound in her right breast as the
result of her attempt at suicide
yesterday evening. Had Mrs. Crane
used a larger gun, or had the
shot been on the left side, death
would have been almost certain,
according to the attending ply
sicians, but as 1T is she has an
even chance for recovery unless
infection should set in.
Jack Crane, the husband, says
that he had just finished putting
away his car, about five-tifteen
yesterday afternoon, and had
reached the front porcn, when he
heard a shot, and rushing into
the house found his wife lying on
the floor with wound in her
right side.
She was rushed to the Las We
gas Hospital at once, where the
wound was dressed, and the bull
let removed from near the back
where it had lodged.
Aked whether she had any rea-
son for killing herself, Mrs. Crane
stated that she had 'lots OF little
worries and troubles"
Mr.. Crane stated that his wife
had been suyject to fits of jealousy
and dependency for a long time,
and that he had been afraid
something of the sort might hap
pen as she had threatened to kill
herself on several occasions.
Crane said that though the gun,
a Is calibre automatic pistol was
kept in the house, it was kept un-
loaded, and he did not know there
were any shells in the house.
Mrs. Crane says she hunted
over the house until she found
one shell, which she put into the
gun and deliberately shot herSel :.
One of Mrs. Cranes worrj/5,
according to the story told the
officers, centers around her young
son, Billy Martin, who has been
causing some trouble, and had
been told that unless he did better
in his school work he would be
sent to his father.
There is, it appears, strain OF
dependency in Mrs. Cranes fami-
ly, as Mrs. Cranes brother COM
mitted suicide in California, by
shooting himself.
Mr.. Crane. who is a driver for
the Pickwick Stage Company,
states that he and his wife were
planning a trip to Los Angeles
next week, to bring back an auto
mobile that belonged to them
that the insurance people had ad-
justed for them.

is made that even Hubbard's own
witnesses failed TO tell straight
stories about the matter. District
Attorney Smith showed plainly by
his talk while in the Valley that
he didn't expect to follow up the
case.
1t is also alleged that Sheriff
Brewer also showed by his talk
that he didn't want to have any
thing to do with the case.
Because the people feel they
can't rely on the right men to do
the thing, they had to retain
Judge E. Elmo Bollinger as attor-
ney for the case.
The people of the Valley would
like the cooperation Of the people
of Las Vegas on this matter
If the people of Arizona know
the sentiment in this county about
the matter they might demand
the prosecution. John Allen is not
the only man to be threatened
with death by these men. If this
case is dropped they probably
will not hesitate to kill the next
man warned and say again it
was self defense.
