Stock Market Takes Rest
At Slightly owerL Level
Week As Whole, However,
Was Marked By Gener-
ally Higher Prices

NEW YORK, Jan. 11.-R-Tht
stock market took a rest today a
slightly lower levels after another
week of generally rising prices.
A few rubbers and specialtleS
managed to tack on advances dur
ing the brief session but steels, mo
tors. aircrafts and leaders in other
groups finished with a perceptlole
limp.
A large portion of the relatively
negligible volume was accounted
for by several low-priccd shares,
the majority of which ended a
shade ahead.
Off L of Point
The Associated Press average OF
go issues was off Il to a point al
44.9, the first dip since the creep
ing recovery got under way Jan. 8;
On the week the composite showed
a net gain of Z, its third consecu-
tive weekly upturn.
Transfers totaled 361, 440 shares,
lowest Saturday turnover In e
Nov. 30. The aggregat- compared
with 1874, $40 a week ago. .
Business news, brokers said, kept
selling light and inspired alittle
buying here and there. Optimistic
straws were seen in forecasts nex'
weeks steel mill operation would
maintain near-capacity levels, re-
ports of mounting retail activities
and expanding railway traffic and
predictions 1910 earnings for rub
Der companies and other selected
concern probably exceeded earlier
estimates.
Many of those who cashed in
yesterday on the long upsWing, bro
kers said, stood aside for the week
end on the theory war rhocks were
a possibility over Sunday. Forma-
ton of a defense board iron and
steel priorities committee led to the
question of just how other indus
tries might fare if governmental
restrictions were instituted. Steel
scrap was cut $3.50 a ton at Pitts
burgh.

Patter After Week Of
Splurging

NEW YORK, Jan. 11.-R-The
bond market returned to its ia
miliar pattern of narrow movement
and irregular trend today after
splurging around like a show-off
most of the week at much higher
levels.

$50 last Saturday. During the week
trading went up to the highest level
since the fall or 1899 when volume
touched &c. 81, $50 on Thursday.
Brokers said the let-down in the
short session today was c natural
one following the prolonged spell
of rising markets. But, even at a
slower pace, a stable number of
trading favorites moved up frac-
tons to around a point. Included
were International Telephone IS at
a., Illinois Central 4 3-4s at Al 3-8,
Commonwealth Edison 8 lbs at
10 and Aleghany stamped IS at

SHOW GIRLS ARE
 VERY SAD TODAY
Requests They Believed to
 Be $z5O,OOO Each, Only $2,OOO Each

New York, July 24-(UP)-Four show girls were shocked today by the news that the late William Gug- genheim, who, in his old age, had taken a keen interest in the careers of young women of the stage, left an estate of approximately $8,OOO.
 The news reduced their prospects from $250,000 each to $2,000 each, an overnight Ammunition of such staggering proportion that they could only express disbelief.
 Indeed, the news was surprising even to Guggenheim's business friends. A son of Meyer Guggen- helm, founder of the Guggenheim copper fortune, he had shared his fathers many millions equally with his brothers, none of whom are $8,- 900 men. Also he had lived in his own Riverside Drive mansion on a $50,00O year scale.
 Nevertheless, his son, William, Jr., and his attorneys insisted that his net estate was not likely to amount to more than $S,O00. The mansion, assessed at $S5, ,000, had a $50,0OO mortgage on 1t, and he had been so hard pressed for money. they said, that he rented out the top floor during the last few years of his life.
 S5,000,0Oo at One Time
 Guggenheim's wealth was au- thoritatively estimated in 1901, when he retired from business, to have amounted to $5.000. GOO. Neither the son nor the lawyer would specu- late on what had caused 1t to shrink SO drastically. His will, in making no provision for his wife Or his son, said he had made ample provision for them during my life- sime."

HARTFORD CLASS FINISHES WORK.
Governor to Address 75O Graduates of Air Raid
 Warden School

Governor Robert A. Hurley, Colonel Samuel H. Fisher and Mayor Thomas J. Spellacy will ad- dress the Hartford Air Raid War den school at the closing exercises in the Broad Street High School Friday evening.
 Opened on Monday evening, July 2, the Air Raid Warden school has been conducted each Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights from 7:30 to 10:00 p. m., with more than 750 students in attendance.
 Major Herbert D. Gallaudet, 6i- rector of the Air Raid Warden schools, announced tdoay that all plans have been completed for the final session of the evening course. A check of the records at both the Hartford school and the four-day course at Yale university, July to 10 inclusive, indicates that prac- tically every city and town in the state has been represented by poe tential air raid wardens.
 In addition to the state and city officials, Major Gallaudet has ar- ranged for Mrs. Dorothy s. Bowles, 2 member of the State Defense Council in charge of women's ac- tivities, to address the group on "Wcmen as Air Raid WardenS."
 Miss Mary Ferguson fo Hartford graduate air raid warden of the Massachusetts school, will read a paper on Local Wardens Instruc- tions to Householders. This is a resume of 8 six hour course pre- pared by Mrs. Humphrey Plowden of England for Mayor LaGuardia National Civilian Defense admin istrator.
 Edward H. Davis, director of the Hartford school, will present a summary of the 221s hour course and Major Gallaudet will give the closing address.
 Since the opening exercises on July 2, the Air Raid Warden course, sponsored by the State Defense Council, has presented outstanding authorities from England and the United States discussing the prob- lens and duties of air raid warden and the civilian in times of emerg- ency and disaster. Major General Daniel E. Needham of Massachu- sets and Howard Johnson, former fire control officer of the Suther- land dockyrads in England, opened the school on July 2, and were fol- lowed by more than score of per- sons who had trained in air raid warden work either at Boston or England.
 It is anticipated that many of those who will receive certificates from the Hartford school will be used as instructors in similar schools to be conducted throughout the state in the near future.
