All THE RYLANDER.

One of the most unusual reasons
for giving the cast of photoplay
a two-day holiday was furnished by
one of the principals during produc-
ton of the photodrama eat the Sign
'of the Jack O'Lantern" This pic
ture will be seen at the Rylander the
alter Thursday.
A big black cat plays an important
part in the story, one of the most
famous books written by Myrtle
Reed, author of Lavender and Old
Lace" Spinner in the Sum-" "Flow-
Ell of the Dusk" and others equally
noted.
The cat is known as Claudius
Tiberius and he stalks his way with
dignity and Importance throughout
the entire comedy. Directing this
cat was a hard task, according to
Director Lloyd Ingraham, but all OBJ
.stacles were overcome successfully by
ingenuity, patience and innumerable
waits for the animal to do what the
scenario required.
One morning Claudius Tiberius
was scandalously late. Searching
parties went in quest of him all over
the studio. No Tiberius was to be
found. Finally when Director Ingra-
ham was almost in despair in strolled
the cat. There was no need to ask
where he had been.
Instead actors and electricians, ex-
tras and visitors, all beat a hasty re-
treat for the nearest doors, and in
two minutes the cat stared wonder
ingly about at the deserted studio.
The explanation was simple
Claudius Tiberius had met up with
a skunk and brought back with
him ample evidence of the encoun-
ter.
director Ingraham declared a
two-day holiday for everybody and
prescribed perfumed-scented bath
for Claudius Tiberius.

Chicago, Aug. 2~6.--Trading in all

Trade in wheat vas without much

on the reported advance at Liverpool

construed as a bullish feature for the
immediate future. Export trade news
was bearish, and there was little de-

sentiment was decidedly mixed.

provement in the domestic Industrial

the market what firmness there was

Congress Declares War
on Bugs; Action to
Exterminate Is Taken

Washington, Aug. 26.-War on
bugs" around the capitol was declared
Saturday by the house of representa-
tives.
BY a joint resolution passed after
a rollicking debate, the house author
lied the capitol architect to proceed to
the determination of insects wher-
ever found.
Representative Gardner, democrat,
Texas, misleading the resolution in a
way to make it apply only to the senate
office building, made a parliamentary
inquiry as to whether "the senate is
the only place where there are bugs
"Oh, no." replied Representative
Ireland, republican, Illinois, in charge
of the measure, there are a few in the
house"
The resolution was sent over to the
senate just in time for its arrival to
interrupt a speech by Senator Reed,
democrat. Missouri, against what he
called theoretical" provisions of the
coal investigation bill. Now that is
something practical" remarked the
Missouri senator when the house mes
senger announced the action of the
house.

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW.

New York, Aug. 26.-The upward

failure Of the anthracite coal and rail
strike conferences to effect q settle
ment. Resumption Of fairly extensive
public buying caused more extensive
dealings, million share days coming
in two months.
The outstanding development in the
industrial situation was the announce
ment of a 20 per cent wage advance,
effective September I, by the United
States Steel corporation and indepen-
dent plants. Threatened shortage of
day labor when the expected industrial
revival gets under way next month is
believed by the financial community to
have prompted the advance at this
time. 1t was followed a few days later
by higher prices of steel shares, u. S.
Steel rising to the highest point in more
than two years.
Car loadings of revenue freight con-
,tinued to increase, coal loadings max

Several industries, however, continue
to feel the effects of the coal short
age. The automobile industry has been
particularly hard hit. Ford plants aid

ment hat arrangements had been made
to burn fuel oil in some of the Ford
factories.
Some increases were noted in com
modify prices during the week, but
further reductions tool place in the
sugar and rubber industries. Increased
purchases were noted on the part OF
retailers, who are reported to have
bought the largest amount of ner-
chandise from wholesalers and manu-
facturers than in any other week since
April, 1920.
Failure of the reparations commits
sion to reach an agreement with the
German government was the oustand-
ing development in the European stu
alton. 1t was accompanied By a decided
slum in Paris and Berlin exchange.
French checks falling to the lowest
price of the year and German marks
being quoted at unprecedented low
rate of five cents a hundred.
Money rates continue to he easy

uted to Withdrawals by interior banks

are still restricted in volume, borrow
ers apparently being skeptical about
making long term or extensive COM
mitments because of strikes which are
holding several important developments

practically won for the carriers on
some of the big eastern lines and the
percentage of employment in he rail
road shops elsewhere is gradually in
creasing.
Business Less Active
Business generally is less active than
it was two month ago. The soft coal
strike has been partly responsible but
in the main it is the natural slow down
of the midsummer period. With a
normal coal supply and the crop con-
dition good as it is, the outlook for
the autumn and winter is favorable.
1t points toward a gradually rising
trade volume with somewhat higher
prices in industrial lines taking the
place of further downward revision Of
wages, or, as in the case of the steel
company's making good the higher
wage scales that are soon to be put
into effect.
