ASOKI Is KEPT BUSY

Admirers Of Tsuru Asoki. the clever
Nipponese actress, soon will be given an
opportunity to see her in her most am
bilious screen effort 1t is a Japanese
idyn and will be billed as 1.-THE Breath
of the Gods" 1.-THE Yellow Orchid will
be the title of the play that will fol-
low THE Breath of the Gods on the
screen. Aoki, in the opinion of her coun-
trymen, is the Japanese Bernhardt, and,
of course. is idolized by them. AS the
wife of Sessue Hayawaka she first be-
came known in screenland, but in recent
months she has earned a place for her
self by the forcefulness of her acting and
the charm of her manner. Few know that
she was educated in a convent in this
country and that her stage career dates
from her eighth year. She is charm
ing hostess and often entertains in her
Hollywood home in a way that is the
envy of her film associates.

GRAIN MARKETS.

The corn market was weak yesterday
in quiet trading. The increased receipts
and the belief that they would be aug
mented by more on Tuesday morning
caused the trade TO sell in quantities
The supply will be far heavier than The
demand. Four hundred carloads Of corn
were reported yesterday. Continued IA
vorable weather and crop news had con-
siderable effect on the bearish sentiment
which predominated. The ever present
agitation TO reduce the price OF foods is
keeping the outside element away y
purely professional market may be eN-
pected during this week. The absence or
support is one of the most prime reasons
for the drops which corn has been talk
ing. shorts are the only interests which
hold up prices. With repeated talk OF
severe punishment for proflteers II is not
to be wondered at that people are not
buying grains.
Oats were weak in sympathy with
corn and because Of the absence of for
eign trade. No export orders OF any i'm
portance are expected until the foreign
financial tangle Is cleared and for that
reason the trade is chary Of buying. The
domestic cash business too Is light. The
crop Is reported of light weight every
rev wire adding to that belief. More
oats will be required than formerly for
that reason Provisions were weak in
spite of better tone IA hogs. The drive
against provisions in the West Is having
a depressing effect, Weakness in grains
also was partly responsible.
