Game Battle For Life

SANTA BARBARA, Cal, June
% u.N.SO.-Marie DresSler once
beat up wallace Berry on the
waterfront.
1t was a great battle-Staged OF
course in front of the cameras Tor
q motion picture.
In a quiet room Of an estate on
a knoll overlooking the ocean Miss
Dressler today waged another bat
tle-one for life.
Losing Fight
And she was losing.
"Her fighting spirit is remark
able"
That statement was made by
Queen Marie's personal physician
DR.. F. R. Nuzum. He added:
But We don't expect her to
live through the day."
A note of cheer went to friends
however, during the early hours
of the morning with the an
nouncement that Miss Dressler,
the grand old lady" OF HOLLYWOOD
pictures, had rallied after sharp
sinking spell.
Her valiant fight for life is
proving the most dramatic chap
ter in her romantic LIES history
"a history written in tears and
smiles as she struggled braVely
from obscurity to the position OF
first lady of the screen"
Friends at Bedside
Sorrowing friends remain near
her bedside. They included
Frances Marion, famous scenario
writer, and Mrs. Stanhope Nixon.
Every possible medical aid is
being employed in the effort to
save the life of the "old trouper"
who has suffered for several
weeks from heart and kidney all
ments.
Hundreds Of kilograms have
been received daily from all parts
of the world and all offer pray
ers for her recovery-a tribute to
her worldwide popularity.

some six weeks ago. announcement
was made this week that the Cleveland
Petroleum Company has purchased
all drilling rights and that drilling
operations have been resumed, pre-
sumably on much larger scale.
Every indication now appears that
Bridgeville and perhaps that entire
section of Delaware, will soon be ex-
periencing a boom, with land values
sky-rocketing. 1t was learned this
week from good authority that no
less than fourteen big oil companies
have been attracted to this field and
that these companies now have their
representatives out attempting to
lease land and take up proprieties. At
the present time 10000 acres of land
east of Bridgcville are under lease,
and it is estimated that to properly
extract the oil expected from this
area at least 10 derricks must be
erected. Which in itself will mean
the sepnding of hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
With all drilling rights now settled
and with operations resumed in ear
nest, everything appears favorable
for the development of some real oil
gushers before the summer is past.

MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES
ARE EASY BUT STUBBORN

Minneapolis. May l8-tPp-Wheat
futures averaged easy for the day but
were very stubborn as pressure was
limited. The close was iHs-1A lower.
Commercial news was without i'm
portant change and weather reports
were anything but favorable. Mill and
professional buying strengthened the
undertone early while just before the
Close there were reports Of precipita-
ton for Canada.
May wheat closed IL lower and
July and September Ia lower.
Coarse grains were unsettled but
slightly higher on the average. May
oats closed 4 higher. July i higher
and September Is lower. May and
July rye closed rs lower and Septem-

Cash wheat prices were unchanged
compared with futures but demand
was just q little slower for local un-
loading. Winter wheat was noninally
unchanged while Durum was easier

Corn offerings were light and in
quiet to fair demand. Oats demand

STOCK PRICES DROP

InfIationary Sentiment Weaksns
After Examination New
Silver Proposal

New York, May l8.-(P)-The stock
market lost most Of its inflationary
enthusiasm Friday and prices yielded
part Of their yesterdays substantial
gains under quiet profit taking. While
some OF the metals were under pres
sure, most declines were held to q
point or less. The close was some-
what heavy. Transfers Appropriated
$4,000 shares.
Overnight consideration Of the
Washington silver accord tended to
dispel the impression that currency
expansion was imminent. Various
traders, consequently, decided to cash
In their profits pending q clearer out
look on the monetary situation.
Freight car loadings for the week
ended May IL showed q contraseason-
al decline Of 2,466, which was attrib-
uted largely to the slackening of the
pace in some industries. The total of
COL ,739 cars was 66,933 ahead of the
1888 week and "a, 479 above the cor
responding 1882 period. Youngstown
steel operations were reported to have
dropped six points to about 81 per
cent Of capacity.
Wheat dropped more than 2 cents q
bushel despite further apprehension
concerning drouth damage. Corn,
tough, ended q little higher. The
other cereals pointed downward. Cot
ton sagged and rubber was barely
steady. Silver futures were only a
little better than even. The bar
metal was reduced Is Of cent an
ounce to AN cents. Bonds improved
and the dollar held its own In foreign
exchange dealings.
