War Specialties Fall Back Again at the
Outset of Trading, Then Rising and
Declining Alternately Trading
Was Relatively Light
By Associated Press.
New York, May 4.—Wall Street.—
War specialties fell-hack again at the
outset of to-dav's trading, pressed steel
car losing 6 1-2 points and the declines
ot 1 to almost 2 points in General
Electric, American Locomotive, Bald
win and National Lead. U. 8. Steel
yielded half a point on heavy offerings.
Standard railways were mostly lower
while minor stocks of that class made
slight gains. Coppers were variable.
There were partial recoveries before
the end of the first half hour.
The market repeated its course of
the previous session, rising and de
clining alternately, with indications of
further selling at every favorable op
portunity. Foreign offerings were not a
factor, although Steel AnjJ Coppers
were sold for European interests in
moderate Amounts. Trading was rela
tively light, becoming increasingly dull
towards midday, when representatives
shares showed general gains. Indus
trials and the miscellaneous group pre
sented a mixture of losses and gains,
motor issues being especially strong.

FIGHTS PAYING HER LAWVEIt
Mervin H. Bogner, Who Seeks Divorce,
Says Wife Can Hire Counsel
Mervin H. Bogncn, of Steelton, vig
orously objects to paying for the serv
ices of the attorney who is to defend
his wife, Nellie, in the divorce suit he
h!as lodged against her and so stated
in papers his counsel filed in court this
morning. The wife denies the charge
that she deserted Holier wilfully and
maliciously and without reasonable
caiine and has obtained s rttle to show
.cause why he should not pay her law
yer who will fight the charge.
The Bogncrs were married in Xcw
Cumberland, on December 22, 1900.
and they seperated on M'arch 22,
1901, the date on which Bogner con
tends lie was deserted. They lived to
gether but three months. Mrs. Bogner
claims she always was and even now
fs willing to live* with her husband and
islie further asserts that she was obliged
to depart from him because of the
treatment accorded her by Bogner s
sister, with whom the couple lived.
Bogner claims that his wife is
financially able to employ counsel to
prepare her case. He declares that he
has paid his wife $1,500 since the
separation. This money was paid in in
stallments of $S a month under a
court maintenance order.
