Gen. Pershing praised tho efforts Of
the convention to perfect an organiza-

Carpet Values Higher.

. To cover increases in production
costs, manufacturers of carpets and
rugs have advanced prices on their
spring lines from 8 to 10 per cent. In
each case it was stated that the new
figures will hold only until January
l, and that the right is reserved to dis
continue patterns not selling up to ex-
pectations without rebate. Manufac-
turers for the most part have booked
enough orders to cover their production
Tor many months ahead and are not
eager to open new accounts. The new
tariff is harassing carpet wool dealers.

Raw SILK Prices Climb.

The upward movement in the Yoko-
hama raw silk market continued yester-
day. prices registering another gain of
ten yen. Transactions were again rather
large, totaling 2,200 bales and bringing
the average daily transactions since
Saturday to 2,200 bales. Americans
were che principal buyers and confined
their operations largely to medium
grades. Asking prices for Sinshiu No.
went up to 2,0S0 yen. There was fair
activity in the local market. with prices
displaying great strength as a result OF
the rise in the Japanese market. Manu-
facturers are reluctant to pay the daily
increases in raw silk and are buying
only enough to cover their immediate
needs

Slight Gain in Ribbon Trade.

The demand for wide ribbons is much
better than 1t was few months ago. but
there still Is plenty of room for improve
ment. With dress styles favoring wide
goods manufacturers believe that sales
will continue to grow. There Is a fair
demand for wide black ribbons for
girdles. with panels draping the sides.
Sales of other wide goods are in COM
paratively small volume. Allplain mar
row ribbons continue to enjoy a steady
demand. More narrow goods are being
sold than for some time

Cotton Yarn Prices Firm.

The cotton yarn market continues
generally quiet. with prices holdine
firm. THE surprising thing about the
yarn market during the past week." a
leading house said. has been it's utter
failure to respond to the continued
feverish activity in the cloth markets
Prices have been very firm so far as
the spinners are concerned and in nc
quarter has there been the slightest
sign OF weakening. On the other hand,
however. buyers ideas of price have
been influenced considerably by the
softer tone in the raw cotton market
and have usually been several cents
out OF line with spinners' quotations.
Weavers have been the principal
buyers"

DECIDES ON BEST
LIFE INSURANCE

Five years ago l was refused life
insurance because of my heart symp-
toms. Doctors said it was caused
from a pressure of gas that came
from my stomach. but their medicine
did not help me and l was getting
worse all the time. Three years ago
my druggist recommended Mayr's
Wonderful Remedy. l took course
of it and believe it is the best life
insurance anyone can buy. 1t helped
my trouble at once" 1t is simple,
harmless preparation that removes
the catarrhal mucus from the intes-
final tract and allays the infamma-
ton which causes practically all
stomach, liver and intestinal ailments,
including appendicitis. One dose will
convince or money refunded. For

with this "office,'" we are coming
into it from the hall, through the
door which is now locked. As we
stand just inside the door, the length
of the room runs right and left.
Across the breadth of the room (some
fifteen feet), is that other door, by
which Cayley went out and returned
a few minutes ago. In the right
hand wall, thirty feet away from us,
are the French windows. Crossing
the room and going out by the oppo-
site door, We come into a passage,
from which two rooms lead.
The one on the right, into which
Cayley went, is less than half the
length Of the office, a small, square
room, which has evidently been used
some time or other as a bedroom.
The window faces the same way as
the French windows in the next
room.
The room on the other side Of the
bedroom is a bathroom. The three
rooms together, in fact, form a sort
eff private suite.
Antony wandered into the bed
room. The window was open, and
he looked out at the peaceful
stretch Of park.
"Cayley thinks he did it," said An
tony to himself. That's obvious.
1t explains why he wasted so much
time banging on the door. Why
should he try to break a lock when
it's so much easier to break a win
dow? Of course, he might just have
lost his head; on the other hand, he
might have wanted to give his cou-
sin a chance of getting away. Why
did we run all tie way round the
house in order to get to the win
/ dows?"
There was a step in the passage
outside, and he turned round, to see
| Cayley in the doorway. He remained
looking at him for moment, ask
ing himself a question. 1t was
rather a curious question. He was
asking himself why the door was
open.
Well, not exactly why the door
was open; that could be explained
easily enough. But why had he ex-
pected the door to be shut. He did
not remember shutting it, but some
how he was surprised to see it open
now, to see Cayley through the door
way, just coming into the room.
Something working sub-consciously
in his brain had told him that it was
surprising. Why?
Cayley joined him at the window.
GIVE telephoned," he said.
"They're sending an inspector or

BEGIN HERE TO-DAY.

The prospective visit of a ne'er-
do-weH brother, who had been alb
sent for fifteen years in Australia,
was far from pleasing prospect to
Mark Albeit, bachelor proprietor Of
The Red House. Mark and his con-
slant companion, Robert, while the
house-party guests were away play
ing golf.
When Robert appeared, the par
lor-maid, startled by his rough ap-
pearance, ushered him into Mark 8
office and went to inform her mas
ter. Mark was not in the garden
and when the maid returned to the
house she heard the report of a re-
volver and then the sound of Cay
ley pounding on the locked office
door and demanding admittance.
This was the state of affairs when
Antony Gillingham, a youthful gem
tleman adventurer, arrived.

on his stick.
"Window-of course! What an
idiot I am"
lie pushed past Antony, and be-
gan running out into the drive. An
tony followed him. They ran along
the front of the house, down a path
to the left, and then to the left again
over the grass, Cayley in front, the
other close behind him. Suddenly
Caylcy looked over his shoulder and
pulled up short.
Here he said.
They had come to the windows of
the locked room, French windows
which opened on to the lawns at the
back of the house. But now they
were closed. Antony couldn't help
feeling a thrill Of excitement as he
followed Cayley's example, and put
his face close up to the glass. But
If there had been one shot, why
should there not be two more? at
the careless fools who were press
ing their noses against the panes,
and asking for it.
my God, can you see it," said
Cayley in shaking voice.
The next moment Antony saw it..
A man was lying on the floor at the
far end of the rom, his back to-
ward them.
Who is it?' said Antony,
81 don't hrow," the Utter whis
pered.
We'll, we'd better go and see" He
considered the windows for mo-
mcnt. Il should think, ii you put
your weight into it, just where they
join, they'll give all right
Cayley put his weight into it. The
window gave, and they went into the
room. Cayley walked quickly to the
body, and dropped on his knees by
it. With an effort he put a hand on
to its shoulder and pulled it over.
Thank God!' he murmured, and
let the body go again.
who is it?" said Antony.
Robert Albeit"
"Oh!' said Antony. 81 thought
his name was Mark"
Eyes, Mark Albeit lives here.
! Robert is his brother" lie sbud-
dered, and said, 81 was afraid it was
Mark"
"Was Mark in the room too?"
yes" said Cayley absently. An
tony had gone to the locked door,
and was turning the handle. II sup

Cayley looked round suddenly at
the voice.

Cayley. He was breathing quickly.

He looked very cool and collected, as

81 suppose this wa" said Antony
aloud, looking out o. the window.
I wonder
"Well. ne didn't go by the windows
in the next room, because they were
shut"
Isn't that rather odd?"
"Wen. / thought so at first, but"
He pointed to the wall jutting out on
the right. "You see, you're project
ed from the rest of the house if you
get out here. If you go out at the
French windows. | imagine you're
much more visible"

again.
"Who?"
Antony shrugged lis shoulders.

Hep me-" said Caylcy simply.
They turned the body on to its
back, ncrvlng themselves to look at
It. Robert Albeit had been shot be-
tween the eyes.
did you know him well?" said
Antony quietly. He meant, Were
you fond of him?"
Hardly at all. Mark is the
brother l know best. He hesitated,
and then said, perhaps I'd better
get some water"
There was another door opposite
TO the locked one, which led, as An
tony was to discover for himself di-
rcctly, into passage from which
! opened two more rooms. Cayley
stepped into the passage, and opened
the door on the right The door from
the office, through which he had
gone, remained open. The door ~
the end Of the short passage was
shut. Antony, kneeling by the body,
| followed Caylev with his eyes, and,
after he had disappeared, kept his
eyes on the blank wall of the pas
! sage, but he was not conscious of
that at which he was looking, for
his mind was with the other man,
sympathizing with him.
Caylcy came into the room again,
! murmured something, and knelt
down to battle the dead mans face.
Then he placed the handkerchief
over it.
They stood up and looked at each
othor.
'If l can be of any help to you,' -
said Antony, please let me-"
That's very kind Of you. There
will be things to do. But you mustn't

"Of course" Antony smiled bach
at him, and said cheerfully, "Well
then, I'll begin by suggesting that
you should ring up the police"
''The police? Yes" he looked
doubtfully at the other. 81 sup

and went to the telephone. ....
May er--look round a bit?'
Antony nodded toward the oper
door.

drew the telephone toward him
"You must make allowances for me
Mr.. Gillingham. Of course, you're
quite right, and I'm merely being

to say, that Mark had beer the last
