Following is the explanation of
Ripley's Believe It or Not"
which appeared in Mondays
Times:
The Monument to Benedict
ArnOld-In what was until re-
Gently a deserted corner of the
battlefield of Saratoga stands one
of the StrangeSt monuments in
the world. The front of the
monument, Illustrated in Believe
1t or Not" Feb. 81, 1881, is a
memorial to mans left leg, be-
cause Arnold'S left leg was con-
sidered the only heroic part of
his body, due to two wounds re-
ceived at the battles of Quebec
and Saratoga.
On the reverse side is the in
scription portrayed in my car
toon of April 20. The stone was
cut at the marble works of James
E. Lynch of Poughkeepsie, N. Y,
and erected by General John
Watts de PeySter of Tivoli, N. Y.
Arnold's name was left off be-
cause it was feared some one
might deface it, but the inScrip-
ton Identifies the hero.

NEW YORK, April 21.-Further
wide breaks in shares suffering from
special developments marked Stock
Exchange trading today. The mar
ket as a whole sold of.
Steel common dropped to 129, a
loss of more than a point. Heavi-
ness in Steel common encouraged
selling. Western Union slumped
more than 6 points to a new low
for the year, while Ingersoll Rand
dropped a dozen points.
Other shares to sell at new lows
for the year or longer on losses of
/ to points included Nickel Plate,
the Frisco issues, Illinois Central,
Associated Apparel and Goodrich.
Continental Shares was a weak spot
in the holding company issues.
Most Of List OFF
The main body of stocks was
moderately lower. Auburn recovered
half it's early 10-point loss and de-
clines in such leaders as Westing-
house Electric, General Electric,
General Motors, Alaska Juneau,
American Can and Bethlehem Steel
generally were limited to less than
a point each.
Oils displayed the best resist
ance to selling pressure, leaders of
this group holding close to previous
levels. Coppers continued to re-
fleet the poor price situation, while
utilities continued under the influ-
ence of selling which made itself felt
in the preceding session.
Railroads Weaken
Weakness in some Of the minor
railroad issues encouraged selling in
some of the leaders of the group,
New York Central falling below the
low established last week. Penn
sylvania lost nearly a point and
Southern Pacific came within
striking distance of it's low of the
year.
Activity was light. sales for the
first half hour amounting to only
100000 shares. This absence of
speculative interest was reflected in
of poor support in
various leaders.

with wheat, but showed an unwill-
ingnesS to follow. Oats we're easy
