\ WIFE'S REVENGE ON HER
RIVAL

RIVAL.
M uDRED' BENSoN'S threat to
M expose her, delivered in a
voice and manner that could
have left no doubt in the mind Of
Mrs. Glenn thA she meant to ex-
tract her promise that she would give
up Nicholas Benson, shook the COM
posure Of Mudred's arrogant uvaL
Nicky Benson, himself. would not
have thought of calling her Flower
Faee'' as she stood facing Mildred
stubbornly. Like Mildred, / dad not
believe that she really cared Tor
NiclSy. She had been having an IN
teresting and amusing affair with
him, and she did not want 10 give
him up. What a humiliating expert
ence for an intelligent, high spirited
woman, 1 said TO myself, to be con-
victed of guilt by the outraged wife,
to have no decent avenue OF escape.
Summoning all her forces for the
final battle she said to Mildred in
voice that was yelled and husky, but,
musical as strain from Deoussy:
"I need hardly remind you, Mrs.
Renson. that letters belong to the
writer rather than to those who mis-
appropriate them. L must insist that
Nou return my letter to me-
After a moment, during which MIL
dred did some hard and serious think-
| ing, she said very deliberately:
81 will give you this letter MIS-
| Glenn, on one condition:
"And that is?'
''That you will write me another
one"
"Yes?"
"one that you will write at my die
tation"---
81 don't quite understand" said
Mrs. Glenn, who was beginning 70
look very much puzzled. She hao
lost her air OF selt-assurance anu
was beginning to appear rather
strained. Meanwhile 1 was gazine
nj Mildred with the eyes OF one who
Is not sure she sees Alright.
uT think j have made myself per

husband Just as 1 dictate It, whlef

which had been the means OF pre-
oipitating this tense situation.

pression on MIS- Glenn's face tha

There was distinct Improvement in
stock market conditions to-day. Ac-
cumulatlon OF stocks for both specu-
letlve and Investment account go f1r
outwoighod sales by professional
bears that advances Of from one to
three points throughout the list we're
general. At no time was there con-
vinclng evidence Of liquidation.
To-day's rise was lead by the rail
road stocks. There was particularly
heavy buying OF Southern Pacific
stock and rights" and the new Pa
elf OIL shares Southern Pacific
touched par Reading, too, was in
persistent demand.
Brokers asserted that buying for
investment account to-day was larger
than at any time for many weeks
past High grade bond issues, YIELD
ing from 5 TO as high as z per cent
we're in practically as good demand
as the railroad shares.
Practically the only evidence Of
bearish activity was found IN the
shipping group OF stocks. The pro
fessional contingent have been en-
deavoring 70 depress these shares on
account Of the fact that the shipping
business ls in a slump and Il has been
necessary for certain companies TO
lay up a number OF ships on account
Of their inability 90 meet operating
expenses. shortly after the opening
Atlantic Gulf went to "a new low
mark for the year by selling at 49,
and the Marine issues were inclined
to heaviness. But when the rest OF
the list turned definitely upward the
shipping shares became steady
Next to the rails the equipment and
steel shares were most conspicuous
In point OF strength. Baldwin rose
three points. Cruc'ble scored a similar
gain. United States Steel rOse more
than a point. Other steel shares were
buoyant at times, These shares
are helped by knowledge that the
Replogle situation has finally been
taken care Of II is said in reliable
quarters that brokers carrying Re
plogle shares have been notified that
they can deposit them with Kuhn,
Loeb & Company and receive SIS per
share.
The street was not In the mood 10
pay much attention to fresh evidences
OF business depression. Announce
ments that the Carbon steel Com
pany. the United states Finishing
Company and the American Chicle
Company had decided to pass their
dividends failed to even temporarily
check the markets forward move
ment.
Although there were additional an
nouncements Of cuts in gasoline prices,
which enlivened speculation as Ia
whether crude oil prices must come
down, the oil group of stocks kept full
pace with advances in other parts OF
the list.
Money continued 20 rule at z Aper
cent. It now Is evident that the dis
bursement OF nearly S4OO, 1000, 900 OF
year-end interest and dividend pay
ments will be accomplished without
any hurry in the money market. The
opinion seems to be growing thai
there win be material case in money
conditions shortly after the turn o.
the new year.
The cotton market continued t,
show heavy tone. with the excep
tion OF January, all options made new
lows for the present downwarC
movement losses, however, wer
limited to about 20 points. The grail
markets were irregular. Foreign eX
change rates were steady.

You cannot blame thoec who use
city automobiles when they have op-

Madame Rcjanc. famous French actress,
died Of pneumonia shortly after mid
night this morning. Her death occurred
during ono Of the sinking spells common

some time.
"All who know her felt she knew she
