LA SALE ST. NOTES

Wagner's sales of May corn Mon.
day We're so heavy that they became
a factor and made 1t hard for the pit
element to overcome. II was followed
by selling by Clement.Curtis, who
were large buyers last week. Other
big bulls who have the largest lines
did nothing, being content to wait,
as they believe conditions warrant
higher prices. Wagner's theory Is
that, after big upturns. bearish con-
slderations often appear over night.

There Is a divided sentiment around
Wall street relative to the position Of
the motor stocks. II Is declared
that II the United States actively en-
tiers the war the manufacturer of
trucks will provide large revenues for
these companies. But 1t Is pointed
out, on the other hand, that the for
eign demand is declining and curtail-
ment of luXuries everywhere will fall
upon the motor industry. The rise
in gasoline price is referred to as
an unfavOrable feature which keeps
investors from taking an interest in
these securities.

eEFRlENDED GIRL RUNS AWAY.
Maxine WeiIey. Placed in Good Home
at Webster City, DISAPPEARS.

Webster City, March 20. - Maxine
Weiley, the young Danish girl who
came to this city two weeks ago and
about whom there has been such an air
of mystery, disappeared and has not
been seen or heard Of since. After her
arrest she was taken to the Henry Ar
mold home on the east side, where she
was to remain. Mr.. and Mrs. Arnold
offered her good home and an cduca-
ton If she would stay. The child
seemed delighted and was pleased with
her surroundings as her foster parents
were pleased with her.
While Maxine was at the St. Jam es
hotel without funds and without
friends she took about $23 from roll
II bills lying in the cigar case. With
the money she purchased a few clothes
and was going to Chicago with the
amount she had left. The child was q.
course apprehended and the money re-
turned with the exception Of the
clothes she wore at the time. She has
stuck to her story of making her own
way in st. Paul and going to night
school, and has never wavered from
that statement, but Mr.. Schroeder felt
that she was perhaps a runaway.
Under these convictions he wrote re
peatedly to Minneapolis and to the
state Industrial school at Sank Center
