~ GRAND THEATER TONIGHT

Nancy was an orphan who had been

her and made her slave for them.
Nancy met an attractive young man
fishing in her neighborhood, and toio
him her troubles. He advised her to
run away.

own car, that very afternoon! And
when he reached home and discovered
his dusty and dishevelled little pas
seneer, there was nothing Tor him to
do but take her in and try to help hei
out, of her predicament.
Unfortunately, the young man .
fiancee got wind of his impetuous
charity, telegraphed to his absent par
ents, and there was good deal OF
trouble for poor Nancy.
That is part of the situation de-

STEEL AND IRON SHARES
FEATURE WEEKS STOCKS

NEW YORK. January 21.-Ths
stock market threw of its apathy
this week when steel and iron shares
became the central features At gains
Of 5 to 80 points for the so.called in
dependent issues.
Inquiry for these stocks came In
large part from speculative quarters,
but observers noted substantial alb
sorption by certain interests which
are believed to represent bankers con-
nected with proposed consultations.
Gulf States Steel orershadowed the
list at an extreme advance Of so
points. but part of this advantage
was cancelled on denial that Henry
Ford interests were seeking control.
Rails were the disappointing fea-
lures, their dullness and occasional
reactions retracting from the strength
of the general list. The only trans
portations to display any degree Of
strength were cotton carriers and
some OF the popular grangers.
Money rates stiffened as a result OF
tho drawing down OF local reserves
by interior banks and heavy pay
ments for federal account. Call loans
again rose to 6 per cent, but most ac-
commodations were offered nearer the
5 per cent rate. Time funds were
available at Az to AZ per cent, and
some short maturities were nego-
tiated at Az per cent on prime col
lateral.
Outside of banking circles little at
tention was paid to the unsettled
foreign exchange markets. Leading
remlttances moved decidedly against
home centers on the apprehension ex-
cited by French political conditions.

WEEKS GRAIN MARKET
SHOWS UPWARD TREND

CHICAGO. January 21-Wheat has
shown a decided tendency toward
higher prices this week. largely as
result of prospective greater Euro
pean demand. together with talk of
coming shortage in the domestic
supply. Compared with week ago
the market this morning was up "
to 2s bushel.
Other gains for the week were corn,
as to 2Aa2Is; oats, 4aA. and pro-
visions. 10 to so.
Announcement that world stocks of
wheat had decreased nearly 5000. 900
bushels in "A week and that estimates
of the Australian surplus were being
sharply reduced gave some point to
ahead from Europe for wheat.
The buying side of the market was
also favored because of adverse crop
reports from Oklahoma and elsewhere
southwest, and later because of word
of the presence of the green bug
pest in Texas. Oklahoma and Kansas.
Then came farm reserve estimates,
which. if accurate. would seem to i'm
ply that except for mill and country
facing shortage of S0.000,0 900
bushels of wheat before the 1922 crop
would be available July. I. Timely
snowfall. in the southwest. affording
needed moisture and protection to
winter wheat. led. however. to a mod
crate downturn from the top prices
of the week.
Corr and oats derived. their gains
for the most part from the action
Of wheat. Besides there was further
export buying of corn, and estimated
farm reserves Of corn were cut down.
Scantiness of provision stocks
tended to lift the value of provisions.
