BY JOHN A. CRONE.

NEW YORK, August 3-After three
hours of slow and indecisive dealings,
the Curb Exchange list today surged
forward to new peak prices on the
present movement before profit taking
just prior to the close reduced the net

Mining were swept along with the ris-
ing tide. Expectation that Electric

Standard Oil Of Indiana faltered
while Deere & Co. rallied. Cities Serv-
ice held within fractional range. Bell
Telephone of Canada and other Do
mlnion securities moved along with the
general market.
Strength Of the oils, activity Of the
motors, steadiness of the public utili-
ties and the number of inactive issues
appearing on the tape were forenoon
features. The sharp contraction of
crude oil output end the big drop

CHICAGO, August (P).-Aggressive
buying that came largely from Eastern
sources gave a brisk hoist to wheat
prices late today.
There was talk of strong interests
accommodating wheat on scale orders be-
cause the market had been on the

Assertions were also current that pri-

Interesting Bridge Hands

carded his Eight of Clubs. z
was convinced that A held the
King of that suit. Of course
A might have doubled upon
two stops to hearts. z watched
the discards like a hawk.
All He Held
Upon the fourth, fifth and
sixth tricks A discarded three
small spades, evidently all that
he held of that suit, so that B
must hold the missing 1.-THE
top spade. z let go his two
small spades. When dummy led
its last diamond, at the seventh
trick, z had to discard, as we'll
as A. B had let go the 2 of
clubs at the fifth trick, and the
4 of hearts at the sixth trick.
When the seventh lead was
made, it took dummy's last dia-
mond, and the hand contained
no sure re-entry, so B felt safe
in diScarding the 3 of clubs
if z had bid upon four spades
he could not hold more than
three clubs.
The declarer knew that A
might hold either four or five
hearts. In the first instance A
must still have three clubs, and
in the second instance he could
hold only two clubs. rs best
discard must be one of his
hearts. A could not let go a
club from two, without laying
bare his K of clubs, so that rs
Ace could pick it up. AS partly
expected, A also discarded a
heart. That must leave him
with four hearts and two clubs.
Il A held the K, as the declarer
thought, the contract could be
fulfilled by giving A one heart
trick, and obliging him to lead
clubs away from his K.
At the eighth trick, dummy'S
lone heart was led. The lone
10 dropped at rs right. The
declarer won three tricks with
his A-K-Q. then he led his last
heart. A won the trick, but he
had to lead his j of clubs.
Dummy'S @ won that trick. The
thirteenth trick was won by rs
Ace of Clubs, just giving him
IL tricks, through perfect play.

the door behind her, stood with
her hand on the knob, very
erect. Her eyes rested a mo-
ment, with disapproval, upon
the sailor hat. rolling across the
floor where Elizabeth had flung
it, spinning, almost hooplike, to
the motion of the boat.
Louisa released her hold on
the knob, picked up the hat,
laid it carefully away without
comment. AS she did so, she
asked, You are not we'll, Eliza
beth?"
Strong and Well
"Yes-oh, yes"
Well! She had never been as
well in her life, as strong, as
buoyant. And yet she was ILL
ill with sudden fevers, with un-
comfortable shivering, with the
evanescent aching Of an old
wound that had been dealt her
long ago and which now trou-
bled her for the first time.
Mrs. Sheldon asked, evenly:
"You and Lennox have not quar-
relied, have you?"
"Why-no-" the girl STAN
mered, sitting upright now, sup
porting herself on palms laid
flatly on the berth; why, no
what makes you ask?"
Nothing" Louisa assured her.
"I wondered, that is all. I found
him alone on deck; he answered
me rather brusquely when I
asked him where you were."
She looked at Elizabeth a mo-
ment, and left her without an
other word.
Elizabeth lay down again. It
was nearing tea time, she knew.
But her limbs were leaden, alb
ruptly. She turned her face to
the wall and began to cry. She
felt alone. She was loSt-lost to
the world she had known, lost
to herself. She had no one to
whom she might turn, Of whom
she might ask why, and, again,
what. does it mean?
Lennox. She couldn't go out
again, she couldn't face him,
she couldn't encounter his eyes.
She thought, childiShly, desper-
ately, that she would stay where
she was, in the little cabin,
until they should land. She
planned carefully. I'll ask to go
home again. Home! Surely
that was the solution, back
to the house which had taken
on such shabbineSs in her
memory and which now seemed
so unutterably safe.
She Sprang up from the
berth and Swaying with the
yelled motion of the boat, began
to order her hair. She could
not live, she was not. living,
until she saw him again.
Hurry, Elizabeth, Hurry!-
warned her heart,-you might
die-the ship might go down
Wait, Elizabeth, wait!-whis-
pered her terror.
She went out of the cabin,
straight to the sheltered part
of the deck where their chairs
