New York, July 19-tUP)--The stock market was in a nervous ten. sion today with prices drifting and volume continuing light.
 Optimism pervaded trading cir- cles at the opening as reports of possible settlement of the San Francisco strike were read. Stocks were pushed forward, some as much as points, accompanying a rise in cotton prices to new season. al highs and further strength in grain markets.
 Selling in commodities started later. Cotton dropped about. $1.50 a bale below the previous close and wheat lost most of its gain of al- most 9 cents a bushel. Selling came into the share market and prices drifted fractions to more than 3 points.
 OHicial denial of rumors of Ger man terrorism strengthened the commodity markets some, cotton picking up about half of the loss and wheat closing with gains of 3-4 to 1 cent bushel, but share prices still held lower in the ab- sence of any buying demand.
 Meanwhile the foreign exchange market found German marks ad- vancing as much as t-2 cent in relation to the dollar. Experts ac- counted for this through purchase of marks by the Russian govern ment for commercial purposes.
 In the stock market there were several weak spots. United air craft provided one as it drifted to 15 3-S, a new low since 1892, as longe disposed of the stock and

 The Evening Post story, by Johannes Steel, said the toll of deaths in Germany had been placed at 2,O00 and that Franz Von Papen 'at the moment is the man who runs everything"
 The cotton market first felt the effects of the story-with many rumors circulating in Wall street by breaking about $2.00 a base from it's high to show $1.50 a bale not decline. Wheat lost most of an early gain of more than a cent bushel. Rubber futures sold off 12 to 15 points from their highs. On the stock market early firm ness gave way to declines ranging from fractions to more than 2 points, although trading was dull. The German rumors were with out confirmation in regular press dispatches from Berlin.

Goo. Langer Still Stars h The Serio-Comic Battle

Adjt Gen Earl Sarles, maintain ing martial law under orders of both Langer and olson, said he was prepared for possible disor- ders when the legislature convenes at noon in special session to in- vestigate Langer's official conduct.
 Mobs of Langer sympathizers booed and shouted outside the homes of four supreme court jus tices who ruled Tuesday that he was disqualified for office by his conviction of soliciting political funds from federal employees. Sev- eral hundred farmers, ardent sup porters of the governor who used soldiers to enforce an embargo on wheat to raise prices, were report ed en route to the capital from all parts of the state.
 A quorum of the legislature seemed assured for the special ses- sion, called by Langer with a tacit invitation to "impeach me if you can." Olson's counter order, can- ceiling the call, was disregarded. Langer's undoubted control of both houses and reports that he will ad- dress Q joint session this afternoon led to sensational speculations. It was pointed out that it would be possible for the lower house to inn peach Olson and the four supreme court justices who supported his cause. Even though the senate might not find them guilty of any offense they automatically would be suspended during trial.
 Senator A. F. Bonzer, active Langer confidante, asserted in a radio address last night that zap propriate action will be taken to mend the courts unjust order" Langer was convicted by federal jury June IT. Ten days later, after a campaign for vindication, he was renominated in the republi- can primary with an unprecedent- ed majority over two opponents. Two days later he was sentenced to IS months in the Leavenworth penitentiary and fined $10,000. Langer met the courts write of warranto by declaring martial law and suspending civil processes.

 Olson had opposed the assem- bling of the legislature and had asked his supporters to remain away. He had at first revoked Langers call of national guards men and then reversed himself and approved their mobilization
 Ito maintain order". Langer, it was learned, moved many state documents and letters from the files of his office Tues
 day night, a few hours after the |,state supreme courts custer ruling. Langer's foes were thrown into confusion by his sudden and unex-
 pected move. They believed he would not give up his fight peace fully and waited expecteantly for
 his next move.
 The rule of, martial law was pro-
 claimed by Langer after the >su-
 preme court ruled that he was dis
 qualified for office because of his
 conviction on charges of soliciting
 political funds from federal relief
 workers.
 The legislature and not the su-
 preme court is the only body em-
 powered to impeach him, he re-
 piled, and sought to circumvent the
 serving of any actual custer writ
 by suspending civil law.
 To the legislators, arriving at
 the $1,500. 900 capitol building to
 find 1t flanked by khaki-clad troop
 CTS, Langer hurled cryptic order "Impeach me-if you can."
 The confidence of Langer and his political associates that they would control the action of the legislature gave rise to reports that
 the lawmakers might move to inn peach Olson.
 Meanwhile Olson occupied what
 he called "the governors office" in
 the Price hotel and Langer sat in
 the high-backed chair in the cap ital gubernatorial chambers.

The eventual death toll may mount into hundreds. On government order wireless instructions were broad cast through thousands of miles ot the flood area that airplanes would watch for three signals:
 Two crossed sheets-Medical aid needed.
 Single sheet--Drinking water needed.
 Two parallel sheets-Food fo. children urgently needed.
 Many families all over the area had no knowledge of the plan, for they were isolated completely and radios we're out of commission Torrential rains continued over the entire southern portion of the country. Peasants feared another world flood and only Noah could survive. Authorities feared a tre- mendous death roll. It was an- nounced officially that 120 bodies. mostly of children, had been recov- cred. Four hundred were known to be missing, and of thousands in the area nothing could be learned.

 Higher prices of raw cotton have caused an increase in quota tions in many lines of the finished goods. Trading in gray goods dur ing the week has been active, and quite a large volume of orders has been placed for finished clothes. Cotton mills continue to operate under the 25 per cent restriction imposed by the code and many of the mills have been forced to cur tail to a greater extent.
