ISOLATED Press.
News Trend.
The Department of Agriculture's Au-
gust / estimates of crop yields in most
cases varied adversely with general ex-
pectationS of the trade. The corn crop
forecast of 2,211, $4,000 bushels is con-
siderably lower than anticipated and
represents falling of in expected yield
of $50, 900 900 bushels during July. Both
the estimate and condition of crop Is
lowest since 1901. The wheat forecast
Of 82l ,00O, 900 bushels was higher than
was generally looked for and shows ex-
pansion of l4,6O0,000 bushels over the
July estimate. It indicates yield OF
both Spring and Winter wheat l4,105,-
900 bushels larger than in 1929, but
"a 1000, 900 less than in 1928 and 58,000,-
900 below 1927. However, the tremen-
dous carry over this year more than off,
set the favorable aspects of these latter
two comparisons.
Corporation news is again comprised
largely of earnings statements. Com
panies which bettered their showing OF

.H|GH-GRADE BONDS
SHOW STRONG TONE
Investment Demand Con-
tinues, but Speculative
Group Sells Off.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The star.
NEW YORK, August IL (P).-Sea-
soned investment issues, a few of the
Junior rails. the better grade industrials
stronger in bond trading today under a
fair investment demand. But the rest
of the list, notably the convertibles, re-
1ected the early weakness of stocks.
At the opening the market heard
talk of easier time money rates when
some 90-day loans were placed at pa
per cent, but these proved to be ex-
ceptions and later the rate was quoted
ga to 2la per cent or unchanged. AS
a matter of fact, certain sections of the
street expect higher money rates within
the week, owing to current and pros
pective Withdrawals by interior banks.
1t is admitted that such Withdrawals
might become heavy within the drought
distress area, though Wall Street gener-
ally is not inclined to view the situa-
ton through pesimistic eyes.
New capital issues were again light,
below $3,000,000 consisting entirely of
municipals. Counter trade was reported
sgood, with a number of large blocks OF
bonds purchased by insurance COM
panies who. perforce, are back in the
open market for bonds since no new is
sues are coming out for which they
can bid direct.
In the convertible group Warner Bros.
Pictures IS came up a shade from their
record low of Monday, though the gain
was partially lost later. American
Telephone & Telegraph AIS dropped a
point. General Theaters Equipment IS
declined along with American Interna-
tional SIS and Chicago & Northwestern
44s. On the other hand, International
Match SIS, American T. G. Chemical 5 lbs
and Baltimore & Ohio. 41as showed
f1rmnesS. American l. c. Chemical is
reported to benefit under the European
cartel agreement on synthetic nitrate
production.
Junior rail issues to improve were st.
Paul SIS, Missouri Pacific 512s and
Southern Railway As. Industrials that
f1rmed were Dodge Bros IS, Armour of
Delaware 512S, Goodyear SIS, United
States Rubber SIS, American Sugar Re-
filming IS, Phillips Petroleum 5As and
Hudson & Manhattan income IS.
The markets tendency was shown
clearly by the line of cleavage in foreign
bond fluctuations. On the advancing
side were Irish IS, Kreuger & Toll SIS,
German Central Bank 6S, Norway SIS,
Italy Is, Belgian Is Q955), French
cities IS, Japan 51as and Chile 6s. A
weak trend was revealed by Brazil IS,
Peru IS, Rome 6las, Poland rs, Berlin
612s, Jugo-Slav Mortgage Bank rs and
Austrian Is. Royal Dutch As, a deben-
ture bond brought out earlier in the
year at 89l2 and which has remained
inactive with a range of 8712 to 901a,
jumped into activity today and went to
a new high of 81. 1t is considered a
good investment issue.

Sheep Dip Seized
The charges grew out Of the

How very nice. My dear, do let's
go somewhere and have tea. I'm
pining for it. And I must hear the
news about you and Arthur"
That Arthur" very nearly decided
the issue. Judith never had pre-
sumed to call Mrs. Franklin Vests
husband by his given name. She
had never, when it was avoidable,
called him anything.
Hearing Mrs. West refer so init
mately to Arthur Knight aroused
resentment. Still, Mrs. West looked
the picture of eager friendliness and
Judith did not have many friends.
why, yes" she agreed. Lets
have tea
They found a place on the second
floor above popular eating place.
1t was a room paneled in dark wood
and hung with blue draperieS. Neat
mattresses in black and white glided
silently between the tables.
Here and there about the large
room groups Of fashionably dressed
women fingered over tea and wisps
of curling cigaret smoke foated
ceiling-ward.
Judith and Mrs. West took a
table at the side of the room. The
older woman had been chatting VOL
ubly during the lift in the elevator.
She looked very attractive, Judith
admitted to herself.
The small black hat Mrs. West
wore with its coquettiSh rose veil
was a trifie theatrical-Still it was
becoming. The green velvet wrap
suited Mrs. Vests high coloring,
and displayed the lines Of her eX-
cellent figure.
and we missed you so much
after you left Bermuda" Mrs. West
was saying. my husband spoke of
you and Arthur repeatedly. Yes,
we were at Hamilton until after
Christmas and ever since then I've
been meaning to look you up. Now
that fate has taken hand, we
really must see more of vou!"
JUDITH stirred uncomfortably.
! y Eyes, indeed" she murmured.
Just as soon as we return"
ooh, you're not going to put us
off that long! Please don't say
that, Judith. Can't you and Arthur
take dinner with us tomorrow eve
ning?"
I'm sorry" the girl answered.
1--WE have an engagement"
Then how about the next
night?"
I'm afraid Arthur's arranged
something"
But the night after that?"
1t was almost too much but Judith
answered gamely:
yes, the night after that-unlesS
I find that Arthur has made other
plans"
Then I'll count on you. And tell
Arthur I'm especially looking for
ward to seeing him again"
Fully aware of how her husband
regarded Mrs. Franklin Monroe
West, Judith felt that mention of
this would hardly be tactful.

Weak from terror, Rokof watched the figure
OF the silent, struggling ape-man disappear be-
meath the rivers surface to unthinkable death in
the Shiny mud below. AS he realized the good
fortune that had befallen him, cruel smile of
relief and triumph touched his lips. But it was

himself he was now safe indeed, a mighty
pandemonium rose from the river bank.
