MANY RECOVERIES
MARK TRADING
Equipments, Munitions and All War Issues Rise in Early
Market; Rails Irregular With Utilities
Without a Feature
By Associated Press
New York, May 24 (Wall Street) —
Many material recoveries from yes
terday's late unsettlement attended
to-day's early dealings on the Stock
Exchange. The usual speculative
favorites, especially equipments, mu
nitions and the war group as a whole
rose from 1 to 1 % points. U. S.
Steel came within a point of its maxi
mum of 128% which also represented
an overnight advance of a point.
Shippings were variable, marines im
proving, while Atlantic, Gulf and
West Indies reacted slightly. Rails
were irregular and Utilities were
featureless aside from a two-point
gain in Ohio Gas.

Marconi Won't Admit He
Has Device to Sink U-Boats
Washington, L>. C„ May 24. Navy
Department officials showed interest
yesterday in the announcement that
Guglielmo Marconi, who is a member
of the Italian war mission, has
invented a dwevice for the destruc
tion of submarines. The announce
ment said that the thirteen subma
rines destroyed in the Mediterranean
recently were sunk by the Marconi de
vice.
The Italian inventor would not con
firm the report and Secretary of the
Navy Daniels said he had not heard
ol" the invention.
The Navy Department is spending
much and proposes to spend more up
on suggested devices for combatting
submarines. It is believed by ex
perts that one or two inventions,
which already have received prelimi
nary tests at sea, will prove effective.
These devices may not rid the sea
of submarines, but it is believed that
they will justify their use by the
navy.
$25,000,000 Added by
John D. to Foundation
New York, May 24. The hundred

Foundation three months ago, an
nouncement was withheld until last
night, after the trustees at their May
meeting had made formal acceptance,
had installed Dr. George Edgar Vin
• ' as president, to succeed John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., and had voted to draw
on the enlarged principal to the ex
tent of $10,000,000.
Of this ten millions, two millions
are to be turned into the permanent
endowment of the Rockefelled Insti
tute for Medical Research, whose pres
ent resources have been taxed by war
time demands In the line of surgery
and serums.
