GANG OF WHITE SLAVERS
WORKING NEAR BILLINGS

Billings, June 6.-Police at Billings
and Sheridan are looking for what is
believed to be an organized gang of
white ~slavers, which is said to have
been operating between the two cities.
Louise Slotta, ~17-year-old Billings
girl, who had been attending a bust
ness college here received an offer,
ostensibly from a Sheridan banker of
a position in the bank. The offer came
through another young woman stu
dent of the school, and with the letter
vas enclosed $25 for railroad fare to
the Wyoming city.
The amount of money advanced
aroused the suspicious of the girls
mother and she appealed to the local
Y. W. C. A. for help. The offer was
found to be a fraud and the young
woman who made it to Miss Slotta
has disappeared.

MONTANA MAY HAVE
MOTION PICTURE STITDIO

The Chamber of Commerce is in
receipt of a letter from R. w. Nelson
secretary of the Commercial club of
Columbia Falls, in which it is an
nounced that Art Stanton, a Columbia
Falls boy, who has made good in the
motion picture world, comes back with
a proposition to establish a studio at
his home town.
A company is now being formed,
and it is stated in connection with the
promotion, that the moving picture in.
dustry will have to move out of Cali

next week Kansas will be cutting new

next week Kansas will be cutting new
wheat. Private estimates of the
southwestern total yield have a wide
variance. Undoubtedly the present
excellent condition of the crop East
OF the Missouri river will greatly off
set the recent rapid deterioration in
Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska. Bas-
ing estimates on the. appearance of
the new crop at this time may prove.
as it often does, somewhat deceptive
but the consensus of general private
estimates is that the total Winter
wheat yield should be close to 600
million bushels. Crop and soil con-
dltlons in the northwest continue to
be generally fair to excellent,
Corn receipts in Chicago, Minnean-
oils and Omaha very materially in
creased during the past week and in
dlcations are that corn will continue
to move freely for at least another
week in case there is dry weather in
the corn belt. The strength in wheat
probably was of some assistance to
Coarse grains, but at all of the mar
kets there was a snappy demand which
took all offerings, most of it going
CoIIl comparatively Is
still very cheap and should continue
IN active demand overseas. Foreign
demand for our oats should now also
pick up, especially in the event that
Argentine shipping facilities continue
much lnoger tied up by strikes and
labor troubles.
The invisible wheat supply at primary
markets is now, 8,334,O 900 bushels one
OF the smallest on record. The carry
over to the next crop promises to be
likewise and the sentiment is general
that world supplies will be no more
than sufficient, forcing Europe to con-
tlnue substitution to as great an ex-
tent as possible.
1t is quite likely that recent Elk
port sales will demand first arrivals
of new Winter wheat, and we would
therefore anticipate no material down
ward pressure on the initial deliveries.
Attention will be directed to Spring
wheat conditions in the Northwest.
In view of the light wheat carry-over,
cheapness of Coarse grains, new crop
uncertainties and active foreign de-
mand we are still inclined to adhere
to the position that the price tenden-
cy in all probability will remain firm
or eventually work to a higher level.
