vague something i'm her mind 1t had
to do with Forrest Cain and the en-
gagement she had made with him. She
almost regretted making il, vet she
knew what he had to say would have
10 be said so she braved herself TO go
through the ordeal
In the meantime Forrest Cain was
speeding toward his shack in his car
He passed the point where the road
crosses the bridge and about three
miles farther came TO the place where
a road led off to the left through the
large granite posts Every time he
had passed this point Cain had OBJ
served the granite posts. He knew
they must be on what was supposed
TO be Gordon Kellv's property. Evil
IDENTIFY. therefore, the road led to the
habitatiOn where Kelly lived before he
went to Atlanta and broke his leg
Since his personal encounter with
Gordon Kelly. Cain had often thought
OF him in connection with his noun
tain home recalling what Deery had
told him about the young mans ia
Their killing himself by jumping off a
mountain while crazed with liquor
The weirdness Of this act had created
profound impression on Cain.
The Granite Posts.
Approaching the granite posts on
this particular morning, the incident
Of the strange death suddenly flashed
across the mind of Cain. He brought
his car to a stop and gazed curiously
at the pillars, which seemed to stand
as guardians Of q mysterious realm.
He then let his gaze wander 10 the
road which Passed through the posts
and was soon lost TO view, winding
through a fine forest of hardwood
trees The road itself was hard firm
and well made and had a top dress
ing Of granite, ground fine, the same
kind Of stone the pillars We're made
Of. Within the open gate, even the
woods and the ground underneath
seemed to be the recipients Of care.

We're no dead branches lying on the

mind was that if was the entrance TO

with it all2 he wondered. Where did
this ball player fit in?
Overcome with curiosity Cain
started his car and turned in the road
that led through the granite posts. He
would investigate. he said to himself.
What better chance would he have,
with Gordon Kelly on his way north
to join his ball club?
Cain was not a slow driver. He
threw his car into high speed and
raced up the winding road. The road
was as smooth as a billiard table and
the crunch Of gravel under his tires
was music TO Gains ears He had
covered more than half d mile of the
driveway and there was still no sign
Of a habitation, when he suddenly
heard tho sound Of a horn, followed
by a sharp cry. He looked up quickly
to see an automobile coming down

STAGNATION IN THE
STOCK MARKET
Conditions in Money Market
Tend to Restrict
Speculation

New YORK, November 26.-Agair
prices dropped slightly today in DUH
and narrow stock market. The upward
squirt of yesterday appeared to have
exhausted the buying power of the
market which fell back into a condi-
tion of stagnation with small, meap-
ingless fluctuations.
Conditions of the money market
tended to restrict speculation. The
heavy outlook of money continued with
large shipments of gold to Canada.
The amount engaged for the dominion
today was $4350,000 which brought
up the total for the movement to slO,-
100000
For San Francisco 100000 more was
reserved, making a total of $2,4O0,OO
Several Influences combined to bring
about the large movement of gold to
Canada. Heavy selling of Canadian
grain bills on this market against
shipments of grain now coming OH
through American ports, flotation of
Canadian bond issues abroad recent
ly in great quotas, payment of the last
installment on the new Canadian Pa
cific stock issues and the increased
gold requirements of Canadian banks
under the new banking law were fac
tors
Call money rose to per cent in re-
sponse to the outward movement OF
funds and preparations for interest and
dividend payment on December l. AT
the close of November last year call
money advanced to 20 per cent.

Wheat Eases Off Slightly.
Wet Weather Hardens
Corn Market

Chicago, November 26.-Wheat eased off
little today, European markets hav-
ing virtually ignored the recent advances
on this side of the Atlantic. Latest prices
were steady at a shade to &c net de-
cline. Corn closed unchanged to 1sGAe
lower: oats off hdAc. and provisions vary
ing from a set back of sc to a rise of

On account of the holiday tomorrow
there was not great deal of selling
pressure and wheat values did not recede
far. Harvest adviees from Argentina
were conflicting. dispatches early in the
day telling of favorable conditions, but
later mentioning rain in the northern
districts and referring to dread of frost.
Bullish estimates of the Russian crop
helped to sustain the market and so
also did report that the European rye
crop was short 1S0,00O00O bushels.
Besides domestic millers were said to
be liberal buyers. Something of an off
set appeared in optimistic views of the
probable yield in Australia.
Wet weather hardened the corn market
but prices afterward sagged, owing to pit
demand being slack. Although Iowa
farmers were said to be accepting Sc
duced figures, December shorts We're un-

weakness, due to unloading by packers.

HOLIDAY FEELING
IN COTTON MARKET
Much Observation-Disclosures
of Day Memphis Crop
Estimate

New Orleans, November 26-The cotton
market had a holiday feeling today. with
much liquidation for both accounts
Around the middle of the session there
was some show of steadiness but the
hard spot brought out fresh short SELL
ing and prices fell off again in the after
noon. A feature of the day was the
crop estimate of 14,s0o,00O bales by Mem
phis authority. This caused selling and
appeared to strengthen bearish claims
that the present spell of favorable wealth
er has added materially to the size of the
crop.
The market opened steady at a decline
OF to Z points on poor cables, the good
weather map and the crop estimate men,
toned above. Soon after the call prices
We're to points down and this brought
out great deal of profit taking from the
short side. The demand from this source
finally became large enough to bring about
a complete recovery and in the after
noon session the most active months went
to points over yesterdays last quota
ton. On the hard spot bears offered
short cotton again and the market sagged
The close was steady, 2 points up to 5
points down.
The weather map was very favora bic
and prospects were for no change of
Importance in weather conditions in the
belt in the near future. Reports from
some sections of the belt stated that more
cotton was in the fields than looked for
at this date and that picking would last
longer than thought short time ago

PRICES EASE OFF
UNDER REALIZING
Following Early Break Rally
Fails to HOld-Market
Off | to Z Points

New York. November 26.-The cot
ton market was quiet today and fluc-
tuations were irregular enough with
in a comparatively narrow range to
suggest that business was mostly in
the way of evening up for tomorrow's s
adjournment Relatively easy cables
and a bearish crop estimate We're con-
sidered accountable for an early break,
while subsequent rally failed to
hold and the market closed steady at
net decline of l to Z points
Private cables attributed Liver
POOLS failure to meet the local ad-
vance and to increased hedge selling
and the absence of any important de-
mand while sentiment there may have
been influenced to some extent by tie
estimate of a Memphis authority, plac
ing the crop at 14,SOeo00 bales.
There was considerable cotton for
sale at the opening here, and first
prices showed a decline of to
points, but offerings were wei taken
around 12.S2c for January and the mar
ket soon rallied.
Most of the buying on the advance
was attributed to covering of shorts
for over the holiday, while there was
also a scattering demand said to be
against renewed calling by European
and New England spinners. THE mar
ket showed no evidences of any ag-
gressive support, however, and after
the more urgent demand from shorts
had been supplied around the closing
figures of last night, prices eased off
again under realizing.
The talk in the trade as well as
the action of the market continued t1
indicate wide difference of opinion
regarding the size OF the crop. Liver
pool cables said the continent had been
a buyer of Indian cotton in the market
there today. There were reports of a
good European demand for spot fror1
some sections of the eastern belt and
local spot people predicted that the
first December notices here on Friday
would not exceed 5000 bales.

ENORMOUS DEMAND
FOR THANKSGIVING
Morris Avenue Practically
Cleaned Out to Supply
Tables for Today

Morris avenue yesterday presented
scene of activity not unlike a beehive.
The wagons. horses. automobile deliv-
cry trucks and drivers were mixed up
In a seething mass that seemed to he
tnextricable. But always there was the
voice of the shipping clerk urging the
huskies to still greater effort at get
ting all the orders filled and finally
a wagon would roll rapidly down, the
avenue. to be followed in quick sue
eession by others until the last of them
had departed on a journey extending
the city over and placing in the homes
that tor which many are thankful.
The wholesalers were practically
cleaned out yesterday and orders kept
coming right on up to closing time.
1t was the largest days business that
has been accomplished in many months
and all along the street after the
wagons had left with the orders mer-
chants could be seen standing at the
entrance of their stores, wearing
smiles of prosperity that are hard to
dispel
In the poultry line. especially was
the demand great. Turkeys, geese,
hens. guineas, ducks and nearly every
fowl known to the temperate zone
We're to be had in great abundance
when the dealers opened for business
in the morning. BY noon there We're
to be seen but few of the fowls and
by o'clock nothing but empty eoops
was to be seen.
Produce dealers were also busily en-
gagged trying to fill all the orders that
We're coming to them and at $40
o'clock yesterday afternoon there We're
II wagons lined up in front of one
produce store. Cranberries were prac-
tically wiped out of existence In the
local market and Florida oranges,
grapefruit, apples, nuts, celery, lettuce
and all that goes into the making of
a real dinner to be thankful for were
heavily in demand. The merchants were
greatly pleased and predict a slight
lull for the halance of the week.
