Ryndam Turns Back.
Word came to the line last night
that the steamship Ryndam. which
sailed January 20 from this port for
Falmouth and Rotterdam, has turned
back. General Agent Van Doom OF
the Holland-American Line announced
last night that he had received a
cablegram from the home office say
ing the Ryndam had been ordered by
wireless to put back to New York,
presumably because of the danger
from submarines. Surprise was ex-
pressed by steamship men that the
liner should turn back after ap-
preaching so near to her destination.
The surmise was expressed that Hol'
land may be on the point of sever
ing relations with Germany, other
wise II was not conceivable why an
order so remarkable as that applying
to the Ryndam should be made.
A cable dispatch from London stated
that bookings for the steamships
and Finland have already
been accepted. The Philadelphia Is
scheduled to sail from Liverpool on
February 10 and the Finland on Feb
ruary 10, both for New York. 1t was
stated at the American line office
here that the American liner New
York, which left Liverpool on Satur-
day, was all right on Monday night.

SUPREME COURT DOES IT
Holds Performance in cabarets,
Hotels, Etc., for Pay, Is vio-
lation of Copyright.

II the spirits OF the dear departed

What all the groups OF serious
musical thinkers could not do-that
is, make the serious nocturnal eaters
and drinkers take an interest in
classical music-the Supreme Court
may have done when 1t ruled. in
effect. that the performance Of copy
righted music in cabarets, hotels,
cafes, or anywhere else where the
orchestra gets paid, Is a violation Of
copyrights.
Several Dangers Threaten.
Washington was not disturbed al
the announcement that cabarets
might not permit orchestras to play
such music without paying royalties.
but now 1t develops that the decision
seems to cover all the other places
mentioned as well.
Several dangers threaten.
One is that the European plan for
music will prevail just as the Euro
pean plan for food already is preva-
lent. The continental laws provide
that orchestras must pay fees to COM
posers of copyrighted music. The
hotel music directors fear they may
have to do the same thing, which
means that they will raise their con-
tract prices for music to the hotel
managers, and the managers are
pretty apt to pass along the buck to
diners.
shows Modern Airs Sway.
The second is that the orchestras
will cease to play the popular and
favorites, and revert to
the classics. Indeed. one hotel or
chestra leader, for his Sunday after
noon program has arranged a pro
gram containing the following; !;
"Athalia," Mendelssohn; Prelude
Rachnaninoff; and Indian suite, Wood
forde Finden.
This leader announces he has tied
all the modern music in a nice little
bundle and slowed it away to await
further developments.
But the worst of all was predicted
by an excited member OF the musi-
clans union.
What will they do? Why, the
hotels will go out and hire a bunch OF

GERMANS MAY HOLD
HUGE GRAIN SUPPLY
Ownership Of 100000
Bushels Stored In Balti-
more a Puzzle.

BALTIMORE, Feb. s.-The owner
ship OF the bulk Of the grain now
stored in the Baltimore elevators Is
still a matter OF considerable conjec-
ture among the grain merchants and
one to which most of these will be
glad to have q definite answer.
There was on storage in the eleva-
tors yesterday 3,436.T29 bushels Of
grain. or this amount 1.740.se0 was
wheat, 635,2e1 corn, 2s2, 2,5es oats,
23e,1e4 rye and 541, ,s1s barley. This
nearly exhausts the local elevator
capacity, and their bulging condition
has compelled the railroads to place
an embargo on further shipments OF
grain to this port unless the export
ers can show in advance that they
have the vessels waiting to load.
This crowded condition has been
in evidence for nearly a year: 1t has
been somewhat acute since the new
crop commenced to move In the early
summer, and there has never been a
time since when the owners OF this
grain showed disposition to let II
be moved unless they had a supply
waiting to take its place.
Holders Won't Sell.
In the interval the exporters to
most OF the allies of Europe have
been almost constantly in the market
for wheat and other grain. The price
OF wheat has advanced tos bove sc a
bushel under their urgent demands
for supplies to load into waiting ves-
sells. This high price failed to tempt
the holders of the stock In the ele-
vators to sell, while the railroads
have been unable to deliver supplies
bought in the West and intended for
export.
1t is not believed the wheat and
other grain are held by the farmers.
because II Is said they would long ago
have been induced to sell at the ex-
treme high prices which have prevail
ed since the elevator stocks have ac-
Whenever'a a vessel comes
here to load the shipper Is presumed
to have the grain ready to load, other
wise 1t means a heavy demurrags
charge for each day the vessel is kept
waiting. For this reason, many con-
tend, the grain does not belong to the
firms which have been do
ing the largest business with the al
lies. The exporters have at times
been in the market as buyers and it
has been their inquiries which made

In & discussion of the matter yes
terday some expressed the opinion
that the grain may have been accu-

that the piling up of the supply and
the tiRhtness with which those who
control it are holding on may indi-
cate the expectation Of the early end

brought to a close within the last
six months. they say, II would have

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), Is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly impure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance Of rich,
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle OF dust, dirt, dandruff, and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and It leaves IL fine and silky,
bright, nuffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsined cocoanut Oil at
most any drug store. 1t is very cheap,
and q few ounces Ia enough to last
everyone in the family for months.

Show Big Business Getter,
The show, thus far, has been big
business getter, and to say that the
exhibitors are pleased would be put
ting It mildly.
Up to late last night, covering the
first three days of the show, 1875 cars
had been disposed of in out and out
sales, aside from all contracts.
Yesterday was North Dakota Deal
ers' day, and dozens of contracts, one
for forty cars were closed. It was es-
timated that fully $50 cars were con-
tracted for for spring delivery. Deal
ers from all sections OF the state,
eastern Montana and western Minne-
sofa were on hand.
Accessory exhibitors report the
biggest business of any show attended
this winter. Eleven auto trailerE
were sold yesterday.
