last week was more than sufficient as
long as export buying remained mere
ly prospective. Considerable dispo-
sition was also manifested to doubt
whether the food shortage in Ger
many had not been somewhat over
drawn. Later, however, gossip be-
came current that recent liberal buy
ing of flour on government account
was part of comprehensive plan for
feeding Europe. Then the market
made a swift ascent.
Oats swayed with corn. Talk of
improved seaboard demand for oats
was distinct bullish factor. ~
Huge arrivals of hogs here weak
ened provisions. The market subse-
quently rallied somewhat. however,
because of the grain bulge.

New York, Nov. 19.-Dullness was
the outstanding feature of today's
stock market, trading dwindling to
the smallest total since the signing
of the armistice. The tone was steady
to firm during the forenoon, but
practically all gains were dissipated
in the final hour.
Monetary conditions which have
initiated against speculative excuses
lost none of their force, brokers eX-
periencing further difficulty in secur-
ing banking accommodation for an
extension of business. Quotations for
call and time loans were unaltered,
but the local money market has tenn
porarily ceased to be regarded as
barometer of actual conditions with
time funds almost unobtainable eX-
cept for moderate renewals.
Four stocks contributed almost
one-third of today's output-United
States Steel, Marine preferred, Next
can Petroleum and Southern Pacific.
Steel started at a moderately strong
pace, but replaced it's extreme adj
vance of IA points with a net frac-
tional loss Marine substituted a
slight early gain with subsequent
setback of two points. Mexican Pc
troleum reversed its initial advance
of y with an extreme setback of
nine points and Southern Pacific for
feited nearly all of it's gains of
point All rails, industrials and spec
ialties fell off one to two points from
maximums in the broader reaction at
the end. Sales amounted to 100000
shares.
Bonds made better showing than
stocks, Liberty issues holding steady

MILITARY BOYS
HOME FOR CHRISTMAS
Many Soldiers and Sailors from
Nearby Camps Get Home
for Holidays

With the Flu epidemic still in ex-
istence and sickness in many families,
yesterday proved very quiet Christ
mas day in Kennewick. Aside from
Christmas programs in some of the
churches there were no public obser-
vances, festivities or social features
of any kind. The day, however, was
characterized by a military touch
which was in every way decided nov
city for the community.
With few exceptions all of Kenne-
wick's soldiers and sailors who are
stationed at nearby camps spent
Christmas at home either. on furlough
or having been discharged. Among
the boys in khaki who were fortunate
enough to get home for Christmas are
Harry Brcede, Julius Olbrich, Harold
Oliver, William Schuster, Willard
Campbell and Roy Cochran, who were
stationed at Fort Worden and who
have been discharged; Neal Harper,
Ted Bliss, Martin Nye, Geo. Mcclure,
Merton Cochran, who are home on
furlough from Camp Lewis; James j.
Reed, Earl Tweedt, Donald Owen, Les
ter Cox, Sheridan Delepine, John Kin
kaid, from the Students Army Train
ing school at the State College; Barton
Sherk, from the training school at the
University of Oregon; Paul Harvey,
who has been discharged from the
spruce division at Vancouver, Wash
ington, and Mess Sergeant R. T. Prit-
chard, who is spending the holidays
with Mrs. Pritchard, who is teacher
in the Washington school. Sailor lads
who have either been discharged or
are at home on furlough are Ganey
Hogan, Emil Behrman, orlin Fisher
and Seward McAuley.

TO CONTINUE RED
CROSS CAMPAIGN
Christmas Roll Call Will Not
Close Until Tuesday Eve
ming, December 31st

While the Christmas enrolment of
Red Cross members fell considerably
short of last years enrolment, the
campaign was signally successful in
view of the fact that no personal so-
licitation was undertaken because Of
the influenza epidemic.
Monday evening, the date originally
set for the campaign to close, there
had been enrolled total of 875 men,
bers. AS the campaign is to continue
until the evening of December 81 the
enrolment will undoubtedly exceed 900
and may possibly reach the 1000 mark
! At Richland the enrolment was par
ticularly light on account of the unus-
ual severity of the influenza epidemic.
Miss Evalyn Yedica, secretary of the
Richland circle, was taken i'll at the
beginning of the campaign and the
work there has been left without a
leader.
E. T. Cushman, of Hover, turned in
an exceptionally good report and his
will probably come near
er to last years record than any of
the districts under the jurisdiction of
this branch. Mr.. Cushman has sent
in his supplies and if there are any in
that neighborhood who still wish to
be enrolled as Christmas members
they should mail their membership fee
to H.. R. Vibber, treasurer, or to A..
r. Gardner, chairman of the campaign.

On learning of the escape early
Monday morning Sheriff Rolph and
Deputy Hansen at once began a hunt
and finally learned that the men had
been at Mabton. From there they be-
gan a systematic hunt and followed
them to near Sunnyside where they
lost the trail. After making inquiries
they found they had been there and
the men were finally located short
distance above Granger and lodged in
the Yakima county Jail.
From all appearances the men are
professional sneak thieves. Their plan
was simple. One of them posed as a
solicitor for magazine and while he
was in store talking subscriptions
the other would take whatever he
could get his hands on. They came to
grief while soliciting in a hardware
store in Kennewick.

MARCHING TO RHINE, JEFF.
Letter from Captain Jeffrey Says LAG
Part of Army of Occupation

They say that soldiers on the march
always sing and that the men of the
American Expeditionary Force are
great on singing old "camp-meeting"
tunes, says the Yakima Republic.
Here's betting that the Yakima
boys who are with the 146th field ar
tillery are singing ''Let Us Gather at
the River" while they trudge onward.
They are now marching toward the
Rhine, according to the letter sent by
Captain Runner jeffrey. While they
deeply regret they cannot come home
"for Christmas" as it was once re-
ported they would do, Capt. jeffrey
writes they appreciate the honor of
being selected to march into the con
quered enemy territory.
