NOTABLE ADVANCE
IN WHEAT MARKE!
Corn Also Gairs During
Weeks Trading-Rise
in Provisions.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, November 14.-Vanish
ing of stocks of wheat in the United
States, especially at Chicago, together
with depletion of supplies afioat for
Europe, have done much this week to
hoist the wheat market here. Com
pared with a week ago, wheat this
morning was up rs to 6ls bushel;
corn, Il to "a up; oats. unchanged to
Il to 3s advance, and provisions show
ing all the way from 20 to 1.05 gain.
The sharrest upturn scored by
wheat prices followed announcement
that the Chicago stock of wheat had
been reduced to less than 200 900 bush
els of regular contract grade and that
Eastern mills were taking wheat away
from here at Il rate which appeared
likely to bring abouu serious trouble
in settling Chicago accounts that
called for December delivery of wheat.
One effect of this situation was to lift
to more than 8 cents a bushel the
premium of December delivery here,
as compared with May. Meanwhile,
there was a falling off of 500, 900 bush
els in the amount Of wheat on ocean
passage with another decrease in
prospect. and with new drop of
1922 900 bushels i'll the domestic visi-
bic supply.
Unfavorable crop reports from Ar
gentina, notably damage by rain in the
harvest district, were emphasized by
an estimate that the Argentine eX-
portable supplies of wheat would be
25 ,000. 900 bushels less than a preced-
ing authoritative forecast of 160 .00O,-
900 bushels. Considerable notice was
also taken Of the fact that stocks of
wheat at Liverpool are far below half
the total a year ago. Under such cir
cumstances the most active export de
mand in weeks for Canadian wheat de-
veloped and selling of future deliver
les here was largely confined to traders
already in position to collect profit.
Corn and oats borrowed strength
from wheat. Besides. some buying Of
corr was based on the fact that the
Government crop report as to corn
proved TO be less bearish than many
traders had looked for.
Scarcity of offerings has been effec-
tive toward higher prices for provi-
sions, and so, too, has the upward
trend of grain.

The glare had been only in contrast

into solitary, snowbound world.
There was no sign of his antagonist,

with deep feeling of tenderness
toward the girl, he began to make his

log house.
He was torn between apprehension
for her and speculation as to his assail-
ant. His first thought had been that
the man was Pelly. But now he be-
gan to doubt this. An old man might
have had his assailant's strength-he
would not have had the endurance.
But stronger still was the conviction
that that monstrous form which had
attacked him in the shaft could never
have been the father of Joyce:
Yet who but Pelly knew the secret
of the mine?
The problem was at present insol-
uble, but its consideration brought
with it the fear that Joyce might have
been attacked as well. Lee quickened
his footsteps through the storm,

Most of the very large species have

Lee took up the long walk imme-
diately. The snow was deep, progress
was difficult without snowshoes, and
the frost had already crusted the sur
face, so that his feet sank in cum
brously at every step. But great
load was removed from his mind; the
future now looked roseate.
At last the mission came into sight
IA group of log huts clustered about
a larger one on low elevation, sur
rounded by the forest Lights cleaned
pleasantly inside them. A horse was
neighing in some stables. Over the
largest hut wooden cross stood out
against the background of the sea-gray
sky.
Lee strobe up the ascent, hesitated
as to which hut to approach, stood ir-
resolute for a moment in the open
space at the crest of the little hill.
Then, as he waited, the door of one of
them was flung open, and man In a
mackinaw and lumberman's boots
stepped out toward him. Under his
arm he held rifle. He presented it
at Lees breast
He looked to be about fifty years of
age, or little older. He had round
smooth face as soft as a babes, an
incipient paunch. A silver cross hung
from his mackinaw. A jolly-looking

which was now subsiding, though the
snow still fell steadily. He blamed
himself bitterly for having left the
girl Surely the strength of that love
and tenderness he felt toward her
would reach her, and she would
respond!
And he planned what he would say
to her. He would advise her that it
was improbable that her father would
receive anything but nominal SEN
tence, that he might even go free. that
in the absence of witnesses convic-
ton might prove impossible. His best
course would be to surrender. Lee
began to grow more hopeful.
The log house came into sight,
standing bare and bleak in the snowy
wilderness. There was no light within.
Lees alarm increased He hurried
to the door. He called, but no
answer came. He struck match.
BY the tiny light he saw that the
kitchen and the adjacent room were
empty.
And he began going from room to
room, striking matches and calling
her, and knowing all the while the fu-
tility of 1t. Joyce was not in the
house.
She had fled into the snow, and,
desperately weary as he was after his
encounter, Lee had no alternative but
to take up the quest. She could not
have gone far, but she must have been
In state OF desperation TO have gone
out into that storm. Which way? The
falling snow had surely long since OBJ
liberated her footprints.
He made his way down toward the
trail beside the river, Only two ways
were possible: one ran toward the
mission, nine or ten miles away, the
other in the opposite direction to the
Free Traders headquarters.
But suddenly Lees hopes and
spirits leaped up confidently. Stoop-
ing, he traced the tracks of sleigh
along the trail. 1t had been drawn by
single horse. and ii was going in
| the direction of the mission.
| There was only one reasonable in
ference. Father McGrath must have
been passing, perhaps he had met
Joyce. and be had taken her with him.
