firm, but at the advance selling orders from
London we're encountered, and prices dropped
a TO per cent, Reading and General Electric
being especially weak. Speculation after the
decline noted ruled rather quiet until the last

His hopes had been fulfilled and dis
appointed. The expedition to Los Ojos
Frios had resulted in success, SO far as
the defeat of the Indians and the rescue
of the imprisoned Mexicans were con-
cerned. But that other hope, born Of the
discovery of the jewelry ON the body of
the dead thief, hope that had grown
with every heartbeat as he neared the
location Of the cabins-that hope had
been dispelled utterly, and he felt that
there was nothing to be done but to dis

He confessed to bitter disappointment
and found bitter pleasure in dwelling

entrance stood small, wiry mustang,
with saddle and bride of Mexican pat

a soldiers mattress and pillow, lay a
