1853. or IL to Is points below yes
terday's close. but rallied 5 to 8
points owing to overnight buying
orders.

and what appeared to be good gen.
eral support and May traded up TO
14.49. July to l4.70 and October 10
14.73 or Is to 20 points early lows.
The bulge attracted rather heavy
liquidf .on by yesterdays buyers,
who had been discouraged by the
u~nfavorable response Of Liverpool
and by the time the offering were
absorbed May had eased off TO
1424. July to l444. and October TO

stairs and wait until it was time
to dress for dinner.
The evening meal was quite for
NAL. John Mitchell and his mother
appeared in evening attire, but
there was nothing for Celia to do
but come downstairs in her long
sleeved brown silk travelling frock
1t was her best" dress.
Going to take this young lady

Mitchell asked, apparently trying
to lessen his daughters discontinue.

Celia would have used to describe
her stately grandmother's black
and white lace costume, but she
lowered her eyes and, following
the midday lesson, did her best
not to appear to enjoy herself.
They withdrew to the drawing
room and Edward brought the COT
fee. Mitchell soon was reading a
newspaper and his mother began
her nightly game of solitaire.
Celia found a volume which in
terested her and began reading
She forgot her surroundings until
Mrs. Mitchell announced it was
time to retire.
The girl babe her father good
night, kissed her grandmother duti-
fully and mounted the stairway.

about the future. She was awed,
but thrilled, by the shadowy vision

Nothing in the least glamorous
happened during the next two days.
The weather was very hot, and
Mrs. Mitchell in spite of her
boasted good health, was indis-
posed.
Celia wandered through the big
house, watched the children play
ing in the park-and thought about
home.
Thursday evening, just before
dinner was announced, John Mitch
ell found his daughter alone in the
library. Undoubtedly there were
tears on her eyelashes.
Whats the matter?" he de-
manded.
Nothing. Nothing at ALL"
Mitchell had to accept this an
Swer. How could he guess Celia
was miserable because no letter had
come from Barney Shields? Mitchell
had never even heard of Barney.
To cover her confusion, Celia
tried her utmost to be cheerful at
the dinner table Her father
seemed unimpressed. AS soon as
possible he excused himself and dis
appeared into the room known as
his study.
For some time John Mitchell sat
at his desk with brows furrowed.
Then he took up the telephone and

presently. Evelyn, I want to see

HAL|9UT . FISHERMEN CALLED
 10 TARIFf C0NFAB

Following closely upon the closing of the halibut season or, on Nov 20 there will be a big gathering of Ihalibut fishermen in Seattle tO put forward their claims regarding ad- lditional tariff on halibut from for- Ieign countries before the U- S. Tar- tiff Commission as represented by Senator Jones of Washington.
 The information was received
 here by Peter Anderson. Seward representative of the U. $+ Fish,
 cries Bureau from Mr O'Connor of the Juneau office of.the bureau. The message stated that Senator Jones had set Nov. 20 for the hear ing and it was desired that fullest publicity would be given it so that the halibuters might be appraised of the fact .
 There has been widespread feel- ing following the general poor bus- mess this year in the halibut i'm dustry regarding the competition that Alaskan halibut men are com pelled to meet in marketing of their hard won spells of the sea and it is evident that they are prepared to make strong representation bel fore the tariff comissi0n for a raise in the present tariff rate
