Some Stocks Showed Strength In Market
 Closing To-day
Main List, However, Was Dull and Very Irregular Whole List Rallied But Buying Was as Scarce as Selling After Rally Started

by the dollars strength but selling was light. Wheat closed of 1 3-S to 1 3-4 cents, all positions, being slightly above the lows of the day. Other grains were down small amounts. Cotton futures eased a few points and ruled steady.
 In stocks, the best performers were motors and rails. In the former group, General Motors was the feature. It came out in blocks of 1000 to 10000 shares and made a new high for the year. Chrysler also made a new top for 1883, and better demand was noted for such issues as Pierce-Arrow, Studebaker Hudson, and Auburn. Pierce was aided by news over the weekend that it had been demerged from Studebaker.
 Favorable earnings by several carriers aided the rail division. Net operating income of the first AS roads to report for July was more than 400 per cent above that in the corresponding month of 1892. Fair deman1 wasA noted for New York Central, New Haven. Southern Railway and Atchison. The latter's July showing was con- sidered far in excess of expecta- tions with revenues better than those indicated by loadings.
 Steel news was unfavorable. The magazine steel found the country's operations at AS per cent, off 3 points and the lowest since the second week in June. The rate was down points in Cleveland, 2 points in Youngstown, IF points in Buffalo, 3 in Pittsburgh, 1-2 in Eastern Pennsylvania. In New England. however, the rate was stepped up points to S5 per cent of capacity.
 The repeal stocks failed to re- spond to the wet victory in Texas. They were down in the early trad ing and only rallied moderately in subsequent transactions. Utilities were given fair attention and for a time in the afternoon the Dow James utility average held small gain.
 Chemical issues moved over wide course, rallying late in the day, only to lose part of the rise just before the close. Oils held well, as did farm equipments, the latter despite. over prices for the prin- copal commodities. Coppers were about steady. Aviation issues were relatively active.

Y, announced today that his company had been com pletely demerged from the Stude- baker Corporation which had held control since 1928.

New York, Aug 2s-(UP)-A few stocks were active and strong in today's session on the stock ex- change, while the main list was dull and irregular. The whole list rallied from early lows in the aft ernoon, but buying on the rally was as scarce as selling on the preced- ing decline.
 Opening trades were influenced adversely by a decidedly strong dollar brought on by short cover ing abroad in the absence of defi- mite imitation measures and the ap- preaching conversations between President Roosevelet and Montagu Norman, head of the Bank of Eng land. It was believed the latter would include dollar stabilization plan indications were the admin istration would make no commit ments on that score.
 Foreign exchanges were features in the financial world. The pound sterling dropped 11h cents to $4.5O. It closed Friday at $4.631s On Thuprsday it was at $4.55. The franc and other currencies made corresponding declines in favor of the dollar but they held above the closing levels of last Thursday.

DEATHS IN ST LOUIS REACHED
 NUMBER OF B
There Are 275 Cases of Sleeping Sic k ness Dread African Fly Be- lieyed Cause of It All

St. Louis, Aug. 2S-(UP)-The theory that the dread African Tsetse fly is the cause of the epi- demic of sleeping sickness now sweeping St. Louis was advanced today by health officials. Thirty nine deaths and more than 275 cases of the malady have been re- ported. Three persons died yester- day and Is more cases were placed in isolation.
 The Tsetse fly theory was first advanced by William Godin, a for mer resident of Borneo. Godin reported to police that he saw in insect in his yard that closely re- sembled the Tsetse fly which he had seen many times while in Borneo.
 While the type of sleeping sick ness observed here is understood to be different from the malady as suffered in Africa, scientists turn ed to the fly clue as all efforts and research to find the carrier of the disease or an immunizing serum have failed.
 The Tsetse fly has always thought to have been indigenous to Africa and not found in other localities.
