KEEP COOL! KEEP OUTl

For a fortnight there has been
some disposition among amateur
followers of stock market conditions
to assume that the wise ones in Wall
Street must have tip that the war
is soon to end, and that its end will
be the beginning of an industrial
boom in this country. Therefore, it
has been assumed, the wise heads are
getting together to load up on stocks
while they are down, in order later
to sell them when they are up.
This is worth examining in the
light of something that happened in
the Chicago wheat pit yesterday. De-
livery day under contracts in May
wheat is two weeks ahead. The bears,
who perhaps had been watching
Wall Street and listening to this
same theory that the wars end is
not far away, undertook to smash
the wheat market and get out with
big profits. That would have been
the natural thing to happen, if there
had really been inside information
that hostilities might presently be
suspended.
But the very reverse happened.
The market sustained the bear at
tack, all offerings were taken, and
then the price was forced up, and
up, till May wheat touched $1.63. 1t
sagged at the close, but the net gains
for the day were large and impress
sive.
1t will be apparent that wheat
would suffer, at least Immediately, a
depression, if it were known that
wars end were at hand. There is
just as much chance for the insid-
ers in wheat to have straight tip
as for the insiders in stocks; per-
haps a better chance, for the big
wheat dealers are doing business d.
rectly with the agents of the war
ring governments day by day. In
other words, a serious prospect of
the wars close would logically cause
stocks to go up and wheat down. In
stead, stocks have been going up
and now wheat does the same.
There is only one explanation, anc
that is that the factors actuating the
exchange in New York and the pit
IN Chicago are too complex for the
amateur operator to understand
them. Probably the speculations in
Bethlehem and in wheat have, at
bottom, very little to do with any
actual knowledge of the moments
diplomatic and military situation
The performances in New York and
Chicago simply prove that this is
an exceedingly good time for the in.
expert person to keep out of the
market. He stands a fine chance tc
get his fingers pinched, and a yer,
poor one to fill his hands with easy
profits.

Slavs. Wherever the German legions
have appeared they have brought
striking change to the face of af-
fairs. If enough of them can be
spared from the west, they may yet
administer to the Russians another
disaster such as that at Tanneberg
in the early period of the war. 1t is
to be remembered that the Russians,
as they, succeed in capturing and
pouring through the mountain bar
riers, are constantly getting them
selves farther from base, imperiling
their communications, and increas-
ing the difficulty of keeping a maxi
mum Of strength at the point of
contact with the enemy; while on the
other hand the enemy, with shorter
lines and better communications, is
constantly in better position to make
a stand. 1t must be said that the
Russians have undertaken a desper-
ately dangerous enterprise in the in
vasion of Hungary through the Car
pathians. They are in the momen-
tary danger that, once through the
passes, they may be jammed back
against the range, and hammered to
pieces as against chopping block.
The Kaiser is reported to have gone
to this section of the war area and
taken personal charge. Without
doubt he has gone with just this
ambitious purpose in mind. 1t is
merely question whether the Aus
tro-Germans can muster enough
force to undertake so gigantic an
operation; but it will not be over
looked that some checks have been
sustained by the Russians according
to recent dispatches.
1t is necessary that the western
allies shall keep up most deter
mined offensive, to keep the Ger
mans from taking away too many
men from that front; and this, by
all accounts, they are preparing. AT
the same time it is announced that
Russia, on top of her supreme effort
| in the Carpathians, has called up ad-
ditional reserves, said to be as
numerous as all the forces she has
thus far brought to the colors. Her
capacity to provide men for her lines
is limited only by the ability to equip
them for service. None of the other
nations in the battling could today
even think of calling out so vast a
proportional addition to it's strength
We cannot yet know at what point
the allies intend to make their grand
final, decisive attack. Probably they
do not themselves know. They will
go to Berlin from the west, if pos.
sible; but it is not. They have trieC
to go there from the east, and failed
They have not taken Constantinople
and there is evidence that they must
put on a gigantic campaign before
they succeed. They are now trying
out the Galician route into Austria
and if they fail there, the war must
again settle down to a grueling busi
ness of hand-to-hand fighting along

CHATTER X
To1ether AGAIN.

That night after dinner and ciga
ratte, he strobe into the streets to dis
tract his mind with the sight Of the
the eager cries Of the crowd. The
lamps flickered. The sky overhead
was as blue nearly as in daytime. He
walked eisurely toward the native
quarter, jostled, as he passed, by men
in their brilliant costumes and by a
yelled woman or two.
He stopped indifferently before lit
tie cafe, his eyes on a Turkish bazaar
where velvets and scarfs were being
sold at double their worth under the
light of a flaming yellow lamp. AS he
stood so, his back to the cafe where a
number of the ships crew were drink
ing, he heard short sharp sound that
had a sweet familiarity about it and
whose individuality made him start
with surprise He could not believe
his ears. He heard the bark again
and then he was sprung upon by lit
tie body that ran out from between the
legs of a sailor who sat drinking his
coffee and liquor.
Gracious heavens!" exclaimed Sab
ron, thinking that he must be the vic
tim of a hashish dream "Pitchoune!"
The dog fawned on him and whined,
crouched at his feet whining a
child. Sabron bent and fondled him.
The sailor from the table called the
dog imperatively, but Pitchoune would

than return. If his throat could have
uttered words he would have spoken,
but his eyes spoke. They looked as
though they we're fearful.
"Pitchoune, mon vieux! No, it can't
be Pitchoune. But it is Pitchoune!"
And Sabron took him up in his arms.
The dog tried to lick his face.
''Voyons." said the officer to the ma
rine. who came rolling over to them,
where did you get this dog?"
The young mans voice was i'm
perative and he fixed stern eyes on the
sailor, who pulled his forelock and ex-
planned.
"He was following me-" said Sabron,
not without slight catch in his voice.
The body Of Pitchoune quivered under
his arm. "He is my dog ! think his
manner proves it. If you have grown
fond of him I am sorry for you, but |
think you will have to give him up"
Sabron put his hand in his pocket
and turned little away to be free of |
the native crowd that, chattering and |
grinning, amused and curious and |
eager to participate in any distribution
of coin, was gathering around him. He
found two gold pieces which he put !
into the hand of the sailor
Thank you for taking care of him.
am at the Royal Hotel" He nodded,
and with Pitchoune under his arm
pushed his way through the crowd and
out of the bazaar.
He could not interview the dog him
self, although he listened, amused, to
own manner of speech. He
spent the latter part of the evening
composing letter tc the minister of
war, and although it was short, it must
have possessed certain evident and
ceiling qualities, for before he left AL
yiers proper for the desert, Sabron
received telegram much to the point:
You may keep your dog. 1 congratulate
you on such a faithful companion.
