CURWOOD STORY AT
THE RyL AMBER SATURDAY.

At its attraction for Saturday the
Rylander Theatre will present James
Oliver Curwood's latest screen story,
"Jacqueline," an epic of the flaming
forest. The story concerns two men
who loved Jacqueline, one a suaye,
polished product of the cities who
thought to win her by trickery and
guile, the other a woodsman, upright
and honorable, whose love was as
clean and fine as the pines among
which he dwelt.
Continued in the picture are a
number of thrilling situations. There
is a forest fire so magnificent as to
make one wonder how it w9s done.
There is sequence which shows two
men in a frail canoe running the
most tremendous rapids Of Maine,
the taking of which involved the de-
struction Of six similar canoes and
almost cost two lives.
In the cast of "Jacqucline" are
Marguerite Courtot, Lew Cody, Shell
don Lewis Edmund Breese and J.
Barney Sherry. In addition to the
feature is "A Good Scout" a Mer-
maid comedy.
Today marks the last showing Of
The Hottentot," which has proved
one of the surprise pictures of the
year, It has delighted hundreds at
the Rylander on Thursday and met
with enthusiastic qpp.oval Of every
one present.

PREVIOUS LOSSESA BAD START N ARE RECOVERED IN GRAIN MARKET IS COTTON TRADING TURNED UPWARD

CHICAGO. Jan. 5.--After a hesitat- ing start wheat turned upward in price today, owing to scarcity of of ferings and to indications of demand for shipments to Europe by way of the Gulf of Mexico. Closing quota tions were unsettled at Mc to ssc net higher, with May S1.1S% to Sf.1S3s, and July st.11b to $1I1A. Corn gained 5s e %c to 5sc, and oats asc to 1&c In provisions the outcome ranged from 5c decline to a like ad- vance.
 At first. the wheat market was de- pressed by reports that foreign sell ing orders were being executed here but OF the downturn of prices some of the most active of recent traders on the bear side turned buyers. and found difficulty, in purchasing on the advance which ensued. At this 1urcture word was circulated that Germany had taken 320,000 bushels and that other export business in United States wheat was in prospect in the southwest
 Some of the early, buying appeared to have been based on hopes that the separations tangle would assume a hopeful aspect, but proved insult ficient to sustain values.
 Corn and oats showed some inde- pendent strength as result of brisk demand from western feeders and owing to scarcity of rural offerings.
 Provisions were governed by the action of the hog market.

NEW YORK. Jan. 5.-Nearly all of yesterdays late losses were recovered in the cotton market today There was continued nervousness over Flu ropean affairs. but the market ap- peared to have been pretty well liqui- dated Thursday and prices advanced on reports of an improving trade in Manchester and bullish spot advices. March contracts sold up to 26. S3c, or 35 points net higher and closed at 26.72c, with the general market clos ing steady. 17 to 32 points net higher.
 The market opened steady at un- changed prices to 7 points higher. There was some further liquidation of long accounts, disturbed by the failure of the Paris conference, but uneasiness of conditions abroad was relieved by the relatively steady showing of Liverpool. Early offer ings soon were absorbed. and the market showed increasing firmness later on rebuying by recent sellers. Liverpool buying and a moderate de- mand from the trade. Realizing in- creased as prices approached the 27c level, but seemed to be quite readily taken on very moderate setbacks and the best levels were reached in the late trading, when January sold at 26. 59c and May at 26. 99c.
 This made net advances of 26 to fl points on the general list. and the close showed reactions of several points.
 The afternoon advance was pro noted by the bullish weekend fig ures which showed that spinners' talk ings were still in excess of last years and which natufally tended to em- phasize the bullish features of the supply situation. Manchester cables reported a better demand for yarns, and also said there was a good de- mand for cloths. Liverpool attributed the relatively steady ruling of the market there to spinners' calling, and said there was a better buying in quiry than for some time. These fea- lures, combined with the development of a firmer tone in the foreign ex- change market, contributed to the afternoon advance. Exports today were 10,360 bales, making 2,S90,291 so far this season.

 The failure of the Paris conference to

Previously but little attention was paid to foreign political accounts which everybody ac- knowledged were unfavorable. and in the early afternoon prices were at their best, 35 to AZ points up. with March at 26.60c a pound. Following the rumors of the late trading. prices broke about sl bale from the highest; the close was somewhat steadier with March at 26.45e and the list at net gains of 23 to 2s points.
 The early trading brought heavy buying. the unfavora ble reports overnight from Europe having no effect. Most active po- sitions gained 30e points in the early ses- sion. Form time to time there were small recessions but around mid-sessio prices were 27 to 37 points up and a little later the highest levels were reached.
 Much of the buying was set down to the account of spot and other trade interests. favorable spot reports from the interior and from the local spot department helped steady the market and highest prices wers reached Son the strength furnished by the statistical statement which counted world mill takings of American cotton at S61. 900 bales, against 324 900 this week last year.
