 Generally More Confident

New York, Aug. 2S (P-The curb market developed a firmer tone to- day. Reactionary tendencies again cropped out here and there, but buy ing was in larger volume, and trad CTS were inclined to the feeling that the liquidation yesterday had cor rected the technical position of the market to a considerable degree.

MARKET REC0VERS
 FROM MONEY SCARE
Bulls Regain Contr0l-RailS and
 SpecialtieS Rise

New York, Aug. 2S EP-The stock it's money scare today when aggres sive bullish demonstrations were conducted in the rails and special ties. Little progress was made by such groups as the oils. motors steels and equipments, and there were few points of weakness. Pool operations provided the background for the advance. Although several of the large commission houses re- ported an increasing odd lot busl- ness from small traders and inves- tors
 The high rate of business and in- dustrial activity was stressed by op- orators for the advance as the basis for their campaign. Considerable emphasis laid on the steady in crease in freight car loadings which is construed as an indication that q large volume of goods is moving into consumption. There has been a slight seasonal falling off in steel output but the rate is still wei! above what it was a year ago.
 Today's dispatches from The Hague, indicating that the Germans had baked on the allied agreement on separations, was somewhat of a appointmant, although bankers privately expressed the opinion that the difficulties would be strengthened out and the Young plan saved. There was little change in credit condi- tions, call money renewing at per cent with indications that the rate would be maintained.
 New York Central assumed the leadership of the rail group by climbing 9 points to new top at 255. Atchison climbed almost as much to a new high at 292 3-S.

Baker Speeds On

Cheyenne, Wyo, Aug. 2S P)-Like some crack locomotive refilling its water tank as it speeds over the rails, the Boeing Shuttle, piloted by Captain Ira Baker, in pursuit of a new transcontinental refuelng flight record, roared over Cheyenne last night, took on 200 gallons of gaso- line and disappeared.
 With the precision of a military maneuver, the ships completed their two contacts in 20 minutes, and when the Nfueling plane piloted by 'Slim" Lewis, the country's second ranking air mail pilot, landed, some 39 minutes after the Shuttle had appeared as speck in the western sky, the endurance plane had dis appeared in the east.
 Lewis had been in the air a half hour when the Hornet engined Boz ing roared over the air field. Captain Baker, pilot of the army's Question Mark on it's historic flight, held to his course for Omaha, and the r.,. fueling plane fell in above his. But for a rainstorm east of Cheyenne. the Shuttle would have been refuel- ed as it flew on it's scheduled course with but slightly slackened spee1 and almost no delay.
 The rain forced the pilot to turn back and two refueling contacts were made northwest of Cheyenne.
 The Shuttle's next scheduled re- fueling contast was at Omaha at } a. m., and 12 hours later the plane was scheduled to fly over New York. Captain Baker hoped to again fly over Cheyenne tomorrow morning on his return trip across the conti- nent, and reach the Oakland airport where he hoped off Tuesday morn- ing.
 The Shuttle had been in the air 10 hours and 25 minutes when it flew over Cheyenne at 7:5S p. m. last night.

Weak Plane Caused Deaths

Boston, Aug, 2S (UP)-Weaknass in construction was blamed today for the crash of a racing Cessna monoplane in which three persons lost their lives at the Boston air port yesterday.
 E. J. Red" Devereaux of New York, chief pilot for the Curtiss Flying Service, and Edward Reiss, representative of a New York oil company, died almost instantly when the plane participating in the Philadelphia to Cleveland air derby spiraled to destruction from an aiti- Jude of 600 feet.
 Mrs. DevercauX Dies
 Mrs. Herma Devereaux, the pilots 21-year- old bride of four months, died at East Boston Relief hospital last night from injuries suffered in the crack-up.
 Mechanical weakness in the monoplane's aileron fittings was held by Lieutenant Robert l.. O'Brien state supervisor of aero- Ha autics, to have been the primary cause of the accident. The con. struction of the plane, which Was said to have been travelling at 1SO miles an hour shortly before the crash, was not sufficiently rugged to withstand such terrific speed. O'Brien believed. He declared manufacturers were turning out cv- perimental planes too rapidly. with out proper regard for the minor but highly essential, parts of the craft.
 "Rcd" Devereaux was well known in aviation circles. He had about 2.0O0 flying hours to his credit. Last March he set new worlds alti- tude record Of 16.700 feet for planes pow rod with an OX-5 motor.
