Skepticism About Extra Divi-

Gary Denies Statement.
nv STIART r. WEST.

WALL STREET. New York. August
.11.-Continued weakness In United
: states Steel constituted the CHIEF de-
pressing influence in the market TO,
day. Despite Judge GarN's denial
after the close OF business YESTERDAY
sarding the dividend policy OF the
company. Wall Street persisted in be
ing skeptical about any extra DIVIDEND
at the next two quarterly meetings.
Inas smuch as these extra dividend
anticipations have been the main req
sSon for the last 10 points Of the rise in
sTsnited States Steel. the decline in the
S-toek was quite intelligible.
: Further realizing occurred in Gen
seral Motors. which at one stage wa 8
off quite sharply. Another OF the re-
Soen, industrial favorites. America n
Smelling. was definitely weak. Du
Sport sympathized as usual with Gen
eral Motors Hudson Motor was Of
tered down again. 1t was OF nearly
10 points from its recent high. Mack
Trucks ran up points at the begin
ming OF the day, but subsequently lost
its gain. The market for the motor
shares was quite obviously full OF
stocks.
Cbesa peske and Ohio, Pere Mar
.1uette and Rock Island made new
high records. Atchison covered a
range Of some TWO points, dropping
otf At the start. then rallying still
more sharply. Atlantic Coast Line
was bid up points, then fell back
partially. Norfolk and Western, New
York Central and st. Louis'San Fran
cisco steadied after an uncertain start
and in the afternoon became strong.
chicago and Northwestern was a
prominent feature. 1t had gone mp a
point and a half Tuesday. and gained
still more today. Other Northwestern
rails did not come in for SO much at
iention. indicating that the reason
for the buying of Chicago Northwest
err was A special reason, probab bly,
having 10 do with the possibility Of
q dividend increase.
There were TWO oil stocks which
were evidently being bought for spe-
cial causes One was General Aspha 1t,
which made new high record. the
other was Skeliy. The rest OF the oils
did little.
General Railway Signal was the
leader Of the equipments. Other mem
hers of the group were little changed.
cuban American Sugar had by no
means discounted the cutting OF the
dividend in two. The stock broke
rather badly and quite upset the rest
NJ the sugars. American Sugar and
cuba Cane preferred were particu-
lsrlv weak.

AMENDMENT TO
LAWS SOUGHT

Secretary of Agriculture Jardine
and the secretary of the interior
have both requested Senator Stan
field, chairman of the public lands
committee, to introduce a bill amend
ing the mining laws applicable to
lands within national forests in such
a way that locators and owners OF
claims in a national forest can ac-
quire no surface rights other than
sufficient area to enable them to
work their claims or mines. Senator
Stanheld, before action, is anxious to
get views of mining men of the west
on this restrictive measure.
The bill also prohibits prospector
from taking or using any resources
in a national forest other than min
eral, and the same restrictions
would apply to mining claims when
patented.
In letter urging passage of this
bill, both secretaries assert there has
been much abuse of existing laws that
many fraudulent claims have been
filed, primarily to obtain use or con-
troll of timber, forage, mineral
springs, damsites and other natural
resources of value, and that in other
instances claims have been far more
valuable for surface resources than
mineral.

MARY PICKFORD'S ART
HOLDS HER PUBLIC

To achieve greatness is one thing;
to retain it is another. Mary Pick
ford after years of earnest endeayor,
has been proclaimed the worlds most
distinguished screen artist To main
tain that position through a per-
iod of years of perpetual COMPETE
ton, during an age of the world
greatest progress when even nations
have been overthrown by the divers
ity of public opinion, entitled this
remarkable young woman to an ever
lasting niche in the Hall of Fame.
Persons prominent in the eyes of
the public usually have gained their
eminence as the result of one accom-
plishment or discovery. Great ar
fists, inventors, sculptors, writer's,
and poets, whose works eventually
enlighten the world, ofttimes live UNI
recognized; greatness comes when
they pass on.
Great actresses and actors are Of
ten created through the medium of
masterful plays and when the popu-
larity of the plays has passed, so, too,
has the fame of the Interpreters. A
few exceptions to this rule have oc-
CURED during this generation, the
most notable, perhaps being the case
of the late Nine. Sarah Bernhard,
whose greatness predominated dur
ing her life, and still lives.
Mary Pickfordl The name - a
word in every country under the
sun. The personality - loved by
countless numbers of every creed,
color and nationality. The artistry
of this illustrious star, the finished
touch which is so distinctly her own,
her incompatible ability to make
people laugh one moment and cry the
next is proclaimed truly marvellous.
Her Interpretation of whatever char
acter she is portraying, her excep-
tional ability to run the gamut of
human emotions with such realism
is the secret of her unprecedented
success.
1t is this, in fact, that has gained
for her the distinction of being the .
worlds greatest exponent of the Gin
ema art. .

entirely different Mary Pickford. In !,

Pickford has entered into her right
full heritage of glorious vital, allur-

While her role of Rosita in the
new picture is a distinct, though
temporary departure from her por-
trayals o fchildhood, it is not by far
her first emotional role.
