SILVER WAVE HAS HARD TRIP

The Motorship Silver Wave, Cap tain Charles strand master, arrived at Nome June 18th. at 5:30 in the morning. The trip was an event. full one this side of the Pass on ac- count of the presence of the heav- fest ice seen in years in Boring Sea.
 Captain Strand is an old timer and is well and favorably known in these parts. He made remarkably fast trip from Seattle to the Pass, stopping enroute at Ketchikan, Seward and False Pass. The story of the voyage as told by Captain Strand to a representative of the Nugget is substantially as follows:
 Left Seattle May 7th and arrived at Nome June 15. Nothing worth mentioning took place between Se- attle and the Pass. except that at Seward, Mir. Miller of the Biological Survey with four native helpers, was picked up and put ashore on Nunivak Island to make study of reindeer propagation for the Gov ernment.
 After passing through the Pass, it was about 75 miles until the ves- sel encountered ice. After contact with the ice for five hundred miles they were never completely free of it. From the Pass Captain Strand held his vessel to the Eastward shore crossing the Kuskokwim Flats and sailing toward Etolin Strait. and in that direction got within about miles of Cape Man ming. There was no chance to get through there as the ice was in a solid pack, the same which the NJ. S. Carpenter got into there.
 After wasting two days at Cape Manning Captain Strand decided t' turn back and go around the island to the Westward. After a detoNr to the southwest cape of the island about IS miles an attempt was made to get outside of the pack but with no success. So they went back up around Cape Mohican. and then along the north coast of Nuni- yak to Cape Etolin again. Arrived there May 27th. and unloaded the passengers, Mir. Miller and his nat tives. and their supplies.
 1 Then they started again toward the northeast heading toward Cape Vancouver. trying to find lead and get east of the pack. They got i to within IS or 20 miles of Cape Vancouver and again ran into the solid pack. The ice closed in al around the vessel and there was nc chance to get out for three or fou, days.
 | On the fourth day. however, g strong southeast wind came on one night and scattered the ice consid erably. The vessel was then head ed for the westward in an attemp to get clear of the pack. Got III

AS SHE ENTERED THE ROOM


 she felt that there was some one else in the room and it was the in- quisitive nature of the woman that caused her to investigate and see if he could be found. As she nov ed from one room to the other, she could tell whether she was near him or drawing away from him. Soon she had no doubts as to the fact that he was under the bed and deciding at all odds to remove him, took her umbrella and made a vicious jab under the bed. See ing that the jig was up, the mouse ran out from under the bed and through the door to life. liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Grain Market

CHICAGO, Feb. 10 R.-Scarcity of
offerings resulted in price upturns to-
day for wheat. Reluctance to sell was
accompanied by talk about falling off
in primary receipts and by gossip that
farm reserves southwest are low at

l. Wheat closed unsettled e to
cent ret higher, corn and oats both
showing 3s to 5s cent advance, and
provisions unchanged to rise of IL
cents.
At first wheat values tended to sag,
reflecting advices of larger shipments
from Argentina, and also from Rus
sia. Selling pressure here, however,
soon lessened, and buying subsequent
ly developed enough volume to keep
the market pointing upward. This
was especially the case in the final
half hour, when pit spectators who
had been previously sellers reversed
their market position. On the whole,
nevertheless, trade lacked volume and
fluctuations were narrow with but

NEW YORK, Feb. 10 lP.--Specula-
tion in the stock market quieted down
considerably today with the industrials
superseding the rails as the leaders of
the upward movement. A spectacular
11-point jump in Baldwin Locomotive,
which touched record high for all
time at $50 and then fell back to III,
in anticipation of an excellent earnings
report, was the outstanding individual
feature. Total sales, which ran close
to 100000 shares yesterday, were
down to less than 100000 today
Call money held steady at 4 per cent
despite the calling of about SIS, 900, 900
in loans. The New York federal re-
serve rediscount rate was unchanged
at per cent, as expected in view of
the fact that no change had taken
place earlier in the day in the Bank
Of England rate. Dividends were re-
sumed on American International cor
poration common after lapse of seven
years. and 10 per cent stock dividend
was declared on United States Realty
common.
U. S. Steel common fell back nearly
a point on the unexpectedly large de-
y
untitled orders. Other steels held fairly
steady, Crucible crossing S5 to the
highest price since 1922 General Motors
crossed q lower at 1891 after selling
2 points above that figure, the directors
increasing the annual dividend from
81 to SO after the close of the market
Only 400 shares of Wheeling and
Lake Erie common changed hands, the
stock opening 10 points lower at 80
and then advancing to IS. The pre-
MUM for loaning the stock dropped
to 3s of 1 per cent, as against Z per
cent earlier in the week. The preferred
was much more active, fluctuating be-
tween SO and SO and closing at SO,
off | point net. western Maryland
common closed LIZ points lower after
moving within radius of points, but
the second preferred advanced slightly.
Sluggishness developed in several
other recent speculative favorites in
the rail group. Pittsburgh and West
Virginia broke 6 points and then re-
covered about half it's loss, while Ban
gor and Aroostook, Chicago Great
Western common, Kansas City South
ern, Reading, ST. Louis Southwestern
and Wabash closed a point or two
lower Atchison moved up over 2
points and then forfeited half it's gain.
Practically all the railroad equip
merits followed the lead of Baldwin.
American Brake Shoe and Foundry
jumped 6 points and American Car
and Foundry, American Locomotive,
Lima Locomotive and Pressed Steel
Car closed 2 to nearly points higher.
Renewed activity of the rubber shares
was based on the expectation that the
rubber purchasing pool organized sew
eral weeks ago would bring stabiliza-
ton of crude prices and substantially
higher earnings to the leading tire
companies
Speculation centered in Ajax, Good
rich and U. S. Rubber Several earn
ings statements made their appearance
