‘The Marriage Cheat”Is to Be Shown

at Capitol SoonThe desire.w. achieve something

distinctive was the guiding spirit of all who had a creative part in the production of Thomas H Inc** s "The Marriage Cheat." which plu>s at the Capitol Theatre next week, from the moment of its conception- Consequently, this new dramatic feature is a powerful study of human- emotions ahd reactions, with a donu- narnt theme of love so interpreted that it offers the utmost in both at tistrv and entertainment value.

Frank R. Adams, who wrote the original story from which "The Mar-

j liage Cheat" was adapted, not con tented wifh being perhaps the^high est paid writer of fiction in tho country, voiced. a desire to "do ’ a South Sea iylaml story that would not even resemble any previous romance of the islands in any of its phases. He succeeded. - ’

C. Gardner Sullivan. dean of scenarists, .adapted the story for the screen with the one idea <*f discarding precedents entirely and turning out a continuity that would offer the director a new l>i>e of structure to build upon. . , . . wj

When the script reached Director . John Griffith Wray, he was so en- ! thusiastic over Sullivan's interpréta - I lion of the story that he devoted weeks of additional filme to the production plans And when he conveyed

ISSUE THE TERM is.4L BONDS

S1R HENRY THORNTON has beenreported as saying that the Canadian

"National Railway would like to see an elevator at Victoria; "but we haven't the money (or it.

This is a very natural thing for the President of the road to say in the êrd.naiv way and more especially so jn view of the tender regard wh.ch the Senate recently paid to ••minority rights" and the "people"» liberty.But there is another way out for V ictoria.

Sir Henry may recollect, however, that the Government of this Province guaranteed C anadian Northern bonds to. the value of about $12.000.000 for terminal purposes on this Coast. With the exception of a little more than $400.000 thçse bonds were issued and the motley released by the late Government for Canadian Northern terminals on the Mainland.

It should be possible for the Canadian National Railway-to issue these bonds and apply the money to the construction of an elevator at Ogden Point. Terminal facilities should embrace an elevator, or elevators, and Mr. Oliver, on behalf of the Provmce. already has consented to the proposal that the proceeds of these

bonds be so utilized. i We commend this suggestion to Sir Henry

Thornton as one the adoption of which would not place the proposal at the mercy of the Senate. And he will be the first to realize that such a development of Government property at the Outer Wharves should soon bring

business and prol dian National $: ^

Sooner or latc?."as the chief of the C.N knows, all the ports on this Coast of the Dominion will be pressed into the «nice of handling the country's grain crop. Vicions has a right to he ready for that business.

THE CONFERENCE SUCCEEDS

THIS morning's news from London «dicte, that, as far as the Allies them-

selves are concerned, the fifteenth inter-Allied

Conference has resulted in complete agreement among the conferees. And out of this latest discussion comes the Promise that^ the Dawes plan to collect reparations from Germany will„ be put into operation and that the Allied Governments will give it their blessing.

Up to this point all, seems to be well. I o Germany has been allowed the next move. Premier MacDonald has invited her to «end a delegation to study the agreement which has been reached and attach her signature thereto. In all probability Chancellor Marx and Foreign Minister ÿtresemann will proceed to London during the week end, It is suggested, however, that Mr. Charles E. Hughes will have a chat with the members of the German delegation before they leave Berlin. He has already talked to the French and Belgium authorities at Paris and Brussels and he is expected to reich Berlin,to-day. Although little prominence seems to have been given to the plans of the United States Secretary of State, it seems fairly reasonable to assume that he is dropping a few gentle hints which are intended to convey the idea that the people over the way would like to see the Dawes plan given a chance.

In any event, even though Germany should jib and bluster and possibly postpone the application of the scheme, the chief point ariung from this fifteenth Allied Conference is that common ground for agreement has been discovered for the first time since the gathering at Versailles. Ibis is a hopeful augury in itself.

Australia » a imie bit mystifiedabout the proposed All-Empire Confer

ence and wonders why the Colonial Secretary should make a public announcement before extending official invitations to the participants.

There seems to be nothing very unusual about the procedure. the remarks which Mr.- 1.homes made at the Dominion Day banquet were hardly the result of a considered policy, and his further reference to the subject in the • louse of Commons during the discussion on Dominion representation at thà. “tnler-Allied Conference was little more than a reiteration of his previously expressed view that a number of points of apparent conflict could not be cleared up until a free and frank discus-

,sion had taken place.As far as the Ottawa Government is con-

cfzned the Prime Minister has receivetTa cable suggesting such a gathering as that desired by the Colonial Secretary; but this has not been followed up by an ôfficial invitation a fact in itself which implies that thé British Cabinet has not yet had the matter under advisement in a formal way.

October his been mentioned as a possible month for the Conference. ITie date, however, is à matter which can otily be fixed after the convenience of the personnel of the various delegations has been fully considered. Premier King can not be expected to alter the

" arrangements for his tour of the West, and if Mr. Thomas is going to South Africa shortly it looks as if this year will pass out before a meeting can be arranged.

There is no urgency; the Empire will remain undisturbed even if the meeting should not take place for a couple of years—or at all.

IT is not always that a member of either the Federal or the provincial Civil Service

It is more noteworthy for such to be the case when an official in question has occupied a position in volving the direction of an organization whose chief undertaking has been used as a political football upon more than one occasion

The nearest Sir Henry I hornton got to a cougar yesterday seems to have been an expression of view by one of the party that the dogs had been on the scent of one. Is the Senate still protecting *'down-trodden minorities?"

A- writer ~m The Ccrlmnst-âyr the special political articles from Ottawa with which it periodically adorns its pages are annoying to The Times ,because they are alleged to have been written or edited by Dr. I olmie. May we remark for the sake of accuracy that I he l imes is not at all annoyed over the articles

or what is in them, but |t is amused at the frequent conflict between them and the utterances of Mr. Meighen in the House of Commons. as reported m Hansard, which suggests a curious absence of team play between the Conservative leader and his propaganda factory. These articles are sent out to all the Conservative new spapers in. Canada from the headquarters of the party organization where there is a staff presided over by Dr. 1 olmie. |

j whose evolution- from a L nionist into a full- j blown Tory was emphasized by his appoint

ment as the party organizer. I hey are not j widely published by the party press because

3Conservative newspapers do not like their y as campaign maten.il. # llu*y $Lre obviously partizan to be effetjjve. Only the

pirty die-hards see any political virtue in them; and the prospects are that Mr. Meighen in his own interests will maintain a closer supervision ovfr them than his parliamentary duties havfc permitted him to do up,to this time.

CANADIANS ALLFrom Th«- l.on«!nn «.Out » Kre# press

With local market* the West will not Le *<> dependent. for the sale of it* prod id i t upon markets thousands of mile* away The problems of the West will become more similar to those of the Hast. In any cas-', we are nil Canadians, and no part of the Dominion < m

~ afford to see one se< t.ori ruined for ,Le a.I. vantage of another. One trouble with Canada to-day is too much sectionalism What we need Is a little more national thinking and ; broad, not a parochial viewpoint

VlUlJALMBR STEFANSSON, the Arctic explorer, writing In The London Spectator,

demolishes rrmny pôpular errors to which moat of us still cling, although they are vestiges oluncritical ages.

Many people ffave been^ i,n<llgnant that their time-honored beliefs should thus be at* taçked and have written letters protesting against the Stp.fgnsaon article. • • .

1 In the first place Stefansson saya that the XorVh Pole IB) not the coldest place on earth, as many people imagine.

Oceana always act a moderating Influence upon temperature and the North Pole is surrounded by the sea

There are parts of the Vnlted States and of Siberia where the cold Is greater than at the North Pole. - -

The temperature at the Pole never falls below -60 degree* In Montana thermometers have registered -60 degrees, and In Siberia there are places whwre -70 degrees and -80 are not uncommon, and one of them has experienced -9.1 degrees, which is 30 degrees below the temperature of the North Pole.

2. Another popular belief Is that oètriches bury their heads In the sand. This superstition. Stefansson says. Is thousands of yedrs old, but exists only among races unfamiliar •with ostriches* habits. f-

t’olonel Roosevelt told Stefansson that when. In Africa he lufflrmtf eptly inquired of all ne-

- gr<«-s lie ever met whether they hud ever seen ostriches bury their heads They had never heard of such a thing and on the contrary expressed the greatest respect for*" this birdsastuteness. f ...... » •

'th"'«rtfpjW»»w that If ostriches were nM stupid ns reputed they would prey shortly to other predatory animals.

:$ Another superstltutlon which Stefansson attacks is the habit "of rubbing show on any part affected by frost bite. .. - ;

•This ho declares Is “an Interesting survival In folk lore of one of the most fundd,- mental principles of ajicient logic; that ilks cure* like." „

H. tells ue that the Eskimo never employs this method and when It is suggested* to him he rejects it as In the highest degree absurd and dangerous.

✓ “It is possible." says Stefansson. "to - get • thousands to testify to the. beneficent effect’ of, the snow treatment of frost bites, hut not nearly as many as would have testified.- in Columbus' time to the flatness of the earth," or. In Washington's time, to the efficacy ot blood-letting " I ' -

4. The .next superstltutlon attacked Is th»t humXn beings cannot live on meat alone He .himself has gone four hundred days 'without tasting vegetable food.

Certain Eskimo tribes subsist solely on meat and fish and c,.t vegetables only In tpe direst- straits, to avoid starvation.

6. île denies' the belief that Eskimos are MPfclnllvJon^ of-Yat-and that they drink oil.

“Thd* Eskimo*" ' he w rites, “undoubtedly would he (ond of fat and might even dnnk oil, if it wer#» truest hat they were exposed to more cold than the rest of us. hut the fact is that the Eskimos are actually exposed to less cold than the average American or Eng lishm.tn "

War" Not so Remote as Generally Believed

'Addressing a well-attended meeting of Summer School students at the High School auditorium ‘ last night. Dr. Charles Ppfcon .Clark, noted Journalist and lecturer of New York, sounded" a Warning note In connection with the problem of world peace

‘Taking as hjs subject, "Some of the Great Problems of New JSurope,” Dr. (’Lark made an interesting discourse oh the progress and retrogression of world affairs in the last few years

The speaker foresaw trouble ahead In that the creation of InternatItxnal boundaries at the close of" the war haft not struck thé®'happiest choice as the boundaries set atltl left a gap In most of the smaller countries affected, . For generation* there had been a great natural boundary in Europe, those to the West looking to Rome and those to the East b" Constantinople. The international boundary . provision* had upset this natural divlsiona-and left resentment tn each of the small natlona who had been deprived of here a piece and there a parcel of territory they had come to call their own

War, he thought, would Inevitably result from the chaotic condition of Europe. foiiatttuttonal government had hot yet been established ly Jugoslavia after alx years of effort. Italy under Its strong manNMussolini, had preferred a dictatorship to the usual form of government.

It was problematical If the Turk would stay satisfied with his disposition. In short hatred and suspicion, always a dominant factor In the Balkans, was now of greater application tn that the war had left dlscon-

WOMAN MINER'SOntario Prospector After

Three Years’ Hard Work Faces Loss

Port Arthur. Ont.. Aug. 2 —The story of how Mrs. Christina Miles, the only woman prospector in Northwestern Ontario, endured the hardships of a miner's life to Ftafte out gold claims in the mine centre dis trlct, near Lake Vermillion, only later to have her right to two forty- acre claims disputed, is .being unfolded to-day before Mining <’ommts- sloner T. K. Godson, K.C., of Toronto, who is heading a hearing in the council chamber. Port Arthur.' Mrs Miles, who resides at Fort Francis, has been prospecting fur three years, aided by her husband. In August. 1823. she staked two forty-acre claims near the once famous . Golden Star property. In staking the, claims, she said, she found traces of work having been done about the property some thirty years before She had been U4d that the two claims had been staked many years ago. but that when she visited the property she assumed that they were again open for staking She accordingly claimed the property, put; in corner posts and

them with the mining recorder af Fort Frances

__ Now two men, C. K. Poweil and R. R Descamps, come forward to tell Mining Commissioner Godson that they staked the same claims in 1922. The dispute ft being heard under section 64 of the Min.ng Act which states that at each four corners of a claim, marking posts must bo set up and that boundaries must be designated.

The floor, too, is of oak so that it may stand the strain when the newspapermen are fighting with «>ne another or welcoming unwelcome visitors.

Their reputation has hern blackened b> disappointed stateâmr-n* Murder de*Hte ffcioua reports to the contrary, te becoming almost & lost art among them, ana no one ha,s been seriously injured there since Mr Percival Buste, who writes philosophical thoughts for the Sunday papers and thinks unphiloao- phical thoughts the rest of the week, heaved his typewriter with remarkable accuracy at the,bald head of an American tourist who wanted to know If this was the place where onepurchased “honest-to-goodness Government llcker."

You may well imagine, then, that David Wobble. M P.P sought out the newspaper correspondents' room forthe first time in his life the other day with some trepidation, «^ course like everyone else, he knew all about newspapers and newspapermen, having telephoned to the business office to complain that the delivery boy had thrown hie paper Into his favorite rose bush; but he felt, like all other new members of Parliament, that he should knAw the newspapermen more intimately. He might need them later on . ,

All successful politicians are kind to newspapermen and give them cigare or peppermint drops or pleasant smiles. If they don't they come to some violent end like being run over by a street car or being counted nut y nrt# vote on a re-count. A just Providence eeee to that.

A BIO MANAnd no Mr. Wobble opened I he

floor of the newspapermen'* room softly and softly thrust his head through the crack. Knowing all about newspapermen, he half expected to find Inside a scene, of violence rind bloodshed A row of corpses would not have surprised him. Instead, Mr Wobble's trembling gaze fell upon the gigantic form of Mr. Percival Buste himself, half burled in a pile of waste paper, and pounding awa> at a battered typewriter with an • xpression whioh Indicated plainly thst cr.ch Jab was piercing th- f ils» h< art .of some worthless politician.

Tome in ’* roared Mr. Buste, good natuvedly. "and sit down, only don't make yourself too comfortable or vou might stay awhile. Glad t-. see you. Wobble As you are a politician we hate and despise you; but as you are a fairly decent scout we fold you to our bosoms. In a figurative sense." he added hastily.

Let me tell you this. Wobble." roared Mr. Buste Jovially, there am two kinds of bolitldans as we see them from the press gallery—the elephants who blunder through our public life, crushing everything worthwhile, and the rabbits who sit l,v and let them do It. And ! would judge that- you. sir. despite “our figure, which is more like the first- named annual—you, I say. are one of the rabbits.

You. sir." Mr. Bust» went nr* •‘would be sn Ideal man to stand across the street and watch a house

hum down. Oh. well, you politicians are about as honest ns the rest of its but people watch you »<> closely that you can't get away with the things that most mop do ns. a matter of course. That is the difference. Babbits and elephants, sir. rabbits and elephants! "BEER AND RAILWAYS

What I was going to say." Mr Wobble ventured, was that I have some interesting views* on the beer problem and the P. G. E. If they would only give me a free hand 1 could settle those problems."

Yes, replied Mr Buste. wUh a queer look. " my experience leads me to believe that if they let you and the rest of the Legislature have a free hand you could settle everything - everything.' There would be nothing left when you were finished. As for the .beer problem. 1 should Judge by vour general appearance that you understand that pretty intimately, too. As for the P. G. E'you know as much

about that as anyone, which 1* nothing at all. And for those reasons you will make numerous three-hour speeches on those subjects. Oh you rabbits and elephants!"

Finally Mr. Wobble managed to explain his ideas to Mr. Buste and as he rose to go he remarked casually, "Well, if you print anything. Just give it as much space as you think It’s worth. Remember 1 hate publicity."

"1 know." said Mr. Buste with that queer look of his. "You hate publicity. | of course. You all do, you rabbits. Well. I ll give It just what it’s worth. Good-bye. Just what It s w'orth. Ha! Ha!"

"Trouble with these newspapermen, they always exaggerate everything." .thought Mr Wobble us ho walked away. "Daresay this stuff will be all over the front page. Oh, well, that won't hurt me- not so very much. And there’s Just this about it. } can issue a statement to-morrow denymg everything. A very good Idea. Very.”

Mr. Wobble's hands trembled as he opened the paper that day.. Visions of big. black headlines with "Wobble" aryl "Beer." and "P.Ü.E.” sprinkled through them danced through his mind. But somehow he couldn't find his rame in the big headlines or the little ones either. Finally, on an Inside page, between a hardware store advertisement and a report of ft negro lynching in Georgia. Mr. Wobble discovered' himself In two. tiny crowded lines of t'ype- "I>avid Wobble. M.P P., Visited the Parti*- ment Building* to-daÿ and called on a number of departments." f

Use New Dock in FutureOn the seventh day of the seventh

month at exactly seven minutes t4> seven in the evening the Admiral Oriental liner President Mahlson docked at pier seven. Manila’s now $2,000,000 pier, which all Admiral Oriental liners and Empress liners will use in the future.

The President Madison was the first vessel to dock at the new pier and officially opened it under most auspicious conditions. A representative crowd of four hundred attended the ceremony and speeches were made by the Governor-General and

For the past few \ -mis Manila has been steadily developing until now she possesses a harbor that is envied by many ports In the Far East and Philippine Islands. The construction of the new pier Is the direct result of the announcement of the Admiral Line's policy to continue its service to the Philippine Islands and the Canadian Pacific's step in taking in Manila and the Philippines ohee more on their Far East itinerary. The Canadian Pacific discontinued their service to Manila for some time, but after an urgent request by the Manila Chamber ut Commerce, in w hjLcb. U>e> .pointed-out tire IndimtrRvt growth ot -’ that city and the islands, they resumed the service.

At first they only placed two liners on that run, hut now they have the entire fleet calling at that port. ,

Instead of being a prairie schooner of the roarin’ forties, it is a motor bus ut Un» busy FitUoa of Btoodwu_>, Where America's automobile rbw begins its stretch from coast to coast.

In the wake of this machine may come a new method of transcontinental travel In which you will be able to go to the nearest cross-roads, hop into a bus, and Continue onward in comfort until you reach San Francisco or New York.

For Dave Fassett, veteran sutolst. Is bent on showing the nation that it can he done. He is driving the bus that is making the first trip With him are two passengers. But on sub

sequent trips he expects to have a car full.

The car is tricked up with the latest conveniences. There is a lounge room, and a smoking compartment —

”JUS!

And the trip may be made cheaply. FAr the whole bus, according to I* R. Anderson, of the company that büllt it, sells for only $3.l0u

No attempt will lu* made for speed .on this first trip Just comfort and a demonstration of the practicability of the idea.

The full route will cover *New York*. Albany, Buffalo, Cleve

land, Toledo, South Bend, "Chicago, Minneapolis, then over the northern route through North Dakota. Mon

fm* ■ the transfer »»f lesa-thmi-cnrhiad freight between the Western terminals of its lines, the Long Island Railroad has. in the last few days, not only demonstrated the practicability

f this much-discussed step, but has also Indicated the benefits which will accrue to both shippers and the general public when nation-wide motorization of railroad freight terminals becomes a fact.

A five-ton truck operated by the Motor Haulage Company of Brooklyn, under a contract with the railroad. 1s now making one round trip a day between the I^mg Island City, Bush- wick Avenue and Ftatbush Avenue freight terminals of the system. As five days were formerly taken for th<! transfer of goods by rail between these points, four days are thus saved to shippers ajid consumers through the present use of trucks.

Following the example of the Pennsylvania Railroad, the lying Island at the Same time started car rving -all local less- than - carload freight on its North Shore Division by motor truck. One five-ton truck was first used, but another was found necessary after the first three days of operation The two trucks are now making dally round trips over the Whitestofie and Port Washington branches of this division.

One "Zone Station** has been es tabllshed on each branch, and to these the through freight trains carry full carloads From tftrso "Zone Stations" at Flushing on the White- stone branch. Ray side on the Port Washington branch the trucks carry all package freight to stations located between them and. tib* branch terminals. All slow-moving "peddler'* freight trains are thus eliminated greatly expediting the movement of the through freight.The use of trucks In' both the ter minai and North Shore areas Is being tried as an experiment for ninety days, arid If the final results-come up to present expectations the railroad

Winner of Title

Jo# Bayley, claimant of the Canadian lightweight champion• ship, anti •■Puggy" Morton of Chicago, who claims to have defeated Clonie Tait, the man who now says he the rightful holder of the Canadian title, have been matched to fight ten rounds et an early date.

Morton i# a rugged youngster who has been in- th*. rmg with Johnny Dundee, featherweight champion; Charlie White, the well known Chicago battler, and Pal Moran, another prominent fighter.

The date of the bout will be announced later by Billy Davies, who will handle the card. e

This fight will no doubt arouse u>much interest. There was some talk of B lly Allen getting a return bout with Bayley, but. m view of the fact that Joe put this veteran away for the third time on Wednesday, it was thought advisable to br.ng on a new man.

An immigration scheme whereby whole families who have been engaged at fishing for generations will be brought from the east coast of Scotland to Vancouver Island, where a model village is being constructed, has been explained by Capf. I. J. Vince on his return to Canada aftet a visit to Scotland, where all the necessary arrangements were made.

Under this plan it is claimed hardworking and industrious people, skilled fishermen and fish-curers, will be given an opportunity to leave Scotland, where adverse trade conditions and a succession of bad seasons have brought them to poverty, and come to Canada, where working under conditions very similar to those to which they have been accustomed they will be able to live a prosperous and fruitful life. '

“We are bringing fifty fishing families back to the west coast of Vancouver Island," says Capt. Vince.

“At Sarita, on Barkley Sound, we have constructed a model village for them, all the houses of which contain from four to five rooms with every modern convenience,

“Already we can sell China all the salted herring we can handle, so we have an assured trade thert,” fie says.

Th«* fishery pnslucts hist > ear were valued at $18,921.100 or fift> -one |H»r cent of the total fishery pro«lucts of the Iiominion.In 1902 these pro«lucts were x allied at l-l.748.36j so it w ill be readily seen that the Industry has been steadRv growing

The total value of #arh prlncl- pal specie* of fish taken in

Kngaged In making th^ catch of this vast quantity of fish are fourteen steam trawlers of ninety tons or ovrr. t«*n steam vessels of thirty "To 125 tons. 172 sailing ami gasoline boats ten to forty tons. 3L|71 sail »n«1 row boats ami 3.074 gasoline launches making a total of 6.6.11 fishing vessels representing an Invest-' ment of 14,117,371.CANNING INDUSTRY

the province it was far less valuable than in many other years, due t«> the fact that 840;183 eases or sixty per cent consisted of pink and chum salmon. Nineteen twenty-three has seen an «wen greater increase in the amount of salmon packed, no les* than 1,341,681 cases being produced ; of these 858,991 cases were of pink and chum, so that the value of this year's pack will be relatively the same. Most of

•the gain in the catch was made on the Skeen a and Naas Rivers.

About 1890 the fishery for halibut xvds begun, and from 6 877,640 pounds in 1899 the catch has risen to . 21,500,950 pound* practically all of which wag shipped fr«»m Prince Rupert ; no less than 900 box cars were re-

The radio fan will readily under- stannd how these direction finders or compasses work, when it is explained that a transmitting station radiates energy equally*) well In all directions.A receiving station employing a regular antenha picks up energy equally well from all directions.

Another point on which the Sergeant was emphatic was never ask a witness to -explain two contradictory statements—if he is wily he may be able to do so, and thus an argument that may he effective with -the Court 1* strangled at its birth.

Another point on which the eminent

ferocity of the Resident petitioned the Crown for hl$ removal. Before the alleged attempt his highness was informed that hi* prayer was granted mul that. Colonel Phayre was to he removed not onl\*jremoved but dis missed In disgrace; as previously on the Scinde frontier had beensimilarly treated.

New York. Aug. 2 (By R. F. Clark Coi>—Big broad market in the business situation Prices generally higher for current movement. The oil stocks forged the front in the last hour and the industrials g>>ner ally gavo a-g<xx> account -of them-, selves, especially Amvrlcan Can and General Klectric. Public demand was rather spirited and quite a little bullish enthusiasm is around this afternoon. It is the consensus of opinion that some very favorable development* with respect to foreign poUti- cal sitUHlon will be divulged in the very near .-future. It goes without saving that any clearing up Of the situation on the other side would have material benefits." The status of things in Europe has been a detriment for some time. Should the turn for the better develop and indication,* of the present time are that they .will, we think, it will have a striking effect on world trade and of course from a/i economical point should apply to the stock market We nre stfU convinced that we are in a period.of rising**rices 'in the stock market:

SUBSTANTIAL ADVANCE IN MARKET LEADERS

New York, Aug 2 (By B A Bond*- —The stock market during to-days

abort session gave another demonstration of it* inherent strength when market leaders such as American Can. Baldwin Locomotive and General Electric reached out toward new highs, the latter selling over 270. The greater number of railroad issues were comparatively quiet, but

~*C*Kes&pe a kequette gained ground quite easily The oil list has come to life and put on a dollar in the better class <.f stocks. Pacific Oil and the Standard Oils look good- trf’ this group which is well behind the balance of the market. The selling of the past fewxda)* has been on the theory that the market is due for a good reaction. but shorts were again forced to cover at a loss and ar** beginning to realize the truth of the old saying that it is difficult to sell a bull market short and make a profit. About the only question to decide in a market such as we are having now. Is what to buy. Some of the better rails rested a few days and no doubt arc in a buying position again, while the advance in the oils should go further now that they are out of the rut.

GRAINS UP INCHICAGO TO-DAY

Chicago, Aug. 2 (By R. P. Clark A To.)- Wheat Black rust has assumed a more menacing aspect in Manitoba, and this; with the violent upheaval In corn prices, started re

ceived buying In wheat with higher prices Country offerings were liberal. but the movement 1« «till •mailer than a year ago. and Judging from the bookings of lake freights nmoutning to upwards’ of 5,000. >00 bushels, there harvbeen much export business At present prices compared to Canadian and Argentine, our wheat will be taken freely, and there Is the foundation for a huge export business. Spring wheat reports from nur northwest were favorable, but advice* to-day._indlcated that the Manitoba whât crop was seriously Infected with a bad case of black rust. Thi* will be the important thing the coming week. If the rust deflnltly shows rapid development it will again k.lndte the hull sentiment which \sas beginlnng to die ^somewhat. The market Is more sceptical to hull i*evvs than to heat* features, and f" this reason, would buy on the set packs.
