Side by side the three men rode off

his throat, he mounted and rode off
to pick up the trail of the man on the
sorrel pony.
The fellow had ridden in the direc-

must be fully twelve miles away, and
when they continued to maintain this
course the Ranger became doubly in
terested. He risked his own interpre-
tation Of the riders intent and pushed
on without pausing to search out the
trail step by step. At the second gate
the signs indicated that his man was
little more than an hour ahead of him.
The prospect of again seeing the
ruddy-haired mistress of Las Palmas

to admit. Nevertheless, he was uncom-
fortably ware that she had a hus-
band. Not only so, but the sharp con-
trast in their positions was Disagree

ably rich, and a person of influence in
the state, while he had nothing except
his health, his saddle and his horse
No; no horse now. she was gone.

Steel was conspicuous for it's rise of points to the new cur rent maximum of 124 3-8. Other stocks of the same class gained to 2points in the first hak hours oper- tion. Shippings rallied from last weeks setback. and important rails made fractional gains. specialties and utilities were featured by Industrial Alcohol and Ohio Gas at advances of 2 to points. Aside from moder- ate decline in Denver and Rio Grand Preferred there were virtually no ex- captions to the higher trend.
 Metals. oils and sugars joined in the broad trading of the first hour. The turnover of that period aggregated almost 800, ,000 shares of which United States Steel supplied about 30 per cent. Short covering and fresh buy ing fully offset profit taking. A tem- porary Hull and moderate recessions in leaders proved to be in the nature of a breathing spell prices mounting higher towards midday. Equipments and associated specialties continued to dominate the market. Another re- versal in motors and accessories and the heaviness of Peoples Gas and United Fruit exerted little adverse eff feet. Bonds were firm.
 On the nominal dealings of the afternoon rails seemed disposed to ease with more speculative issues. This tendency did not extend to active in- dustrials of the equipment class. Steel and related shares ascending to high CT prices.
 Closing-steels further advance to above 125 an inquiry for shippings and fractions accompanied the re- newed activity of the last hour. The closing was strong. Sales approxi- mated 100000 shares.
