SLUMP ABROAD
CAUSES WHEAT
VALUES TO DROP.
Loss of ia Cents Regis

BIZ United Press

u y c NtitH fftNS
CHICAGO. Oct. 26.-The sagging
tendency which prevailed in foreign
markets lent a weak tone to wheat
futures today on the Board Of
Trade. At the end wheat was Il
cent lower, corn was of 2. to ;
cent and oats were 5 to 5 cent
lower.
Traders moved 10 the selling side
after December wheat at Winnipeg
dropped the full Scent limit per-
mitted in a single days trading and
all deliveries had Slumped below
the minimum price of 87i2 Genus
guaranteed to Canadian farmers.
Lower markets at Liverpool and
BuenOs Aires had an adverse effect
on sentiment locally. There was
nothing in the news to account for
the break at Winnipeg.
Light rains fell overnight over the
southwestern portion of the winter
wheat belt and further unsettled
weather was forecast for the i'm
mediate future. Broomhau reported
that duty had been paid on
1,226,000 bushels of Canadian wheat
by U. S. millers in the PAST week.
Corn was partially affected by the
trend IN wheat. Losses were con-
fined to fractions throughout most
of the session, however. Scattered
commission house and local support
was encouraged on the dip. Local
longs were the most prominent
sellers. Scattered showers were fore
cast for the central section of the
belt over the Wek-nd.
Trade in oats was light and the
market was little changed. Rye was
influenced by the action of wheat.
Lard held close to the previous close
with a slightly easier undertone in
evidence throughout most of the
session.

While japanese imports increased
from $183 189 during the first nine
months of 1884 to $1,320,024 this
year, the general increase of total
imports in this classification was
only $4,000 This indicated that
japanese products we're croWding
out foreign competitors far more
than they were invading the field
supplied by domestic mills.
During August and September,
sales of American raw cotton to
Japan declined from $15,961 900 in
1884 to $12,343,000 This represented
loss of approximately $3,500,000
Despite this, Japan still was our best
market for cotton, taking more than
25 per cent of the total.
British Buying Spurts
The United Kingdom, second 1arg-
est cotton buyer this season, jumped
from $6,424,000 during the first two
months of the previous buying sea-
son to $40, $4,000 during August and
September this year.
Value of the raw cotton sent to
Japan during the shipping seasons
ending in July during the last two
years were approximately constant,
amounting to $102,895,O0O for the
1934-35 season and $102, $4,000 for
the 193334 season.
The amount of cotton, however,
varied considerably more because of
price changes. For 1934-35, 1,521, 1876
running bales were shipped while
for 1933-34. 1,845, sol bales were sent.
During August, the latest month
available for all exports and i'm
ports statistics, Japan bought Amer
lean goods valued at $11 $50 ,259 while
Americans bought japanese goods
valued at $12,839,014, a slight balance
in favor of the Oriental nation. This
was the first month since 1888 that
japan had a favorable trade bal
ance.

 HUGE SUCCESS
Much Credit Due to Cast Director and Student
 Helpers in Triumph

Although the sign outside the Coli scum Theatre, promising "chills and exitment" may have led some ex- perienced playgoers into realms of philosophy not related to optimism, Hawk Island" mystery drama in three acts offered last night as the Juneau annual all-school production, proved entirely worthy of the fine support the townspeople gave it..
 Directed by Everett R. Erickson, dramatics coach of the high school, and having a cast of thirteen talent cd high school students, the play provided actual thrills for the ca pacity audience which filled the Coliseum Theatre promptly at 8 o'clock.
 Fine music by the Juneau School Orchestra, directed by Byron Miller, provided a distinctive setting for what was in every way a creditable performance.

 B Jean Boyer, as Sally Rogers, the daughter of the caretaker, and in love with Gregory, finally solved the mystery with great deal of charm as well as decision.
 Bsrnice Lovejoy, in a minor role Tas Harriet Cooper, neurotic wife or Faul, gave truly inspired perform lnce that set exactly the right back yround for the pompous deliberations f of the novelist, and the overwhelming and sometimes unruly sanity of her husband.
 Enid Jarvis. as Louise Hollister, provided just the sort of credulous audience in which the detective re- vcled-and did it very well.
 Mary Jean McNaughton, playing s ella Wayne, the other of the two intelligent women on Hawk Island, is charmingly efficient in the role. Fletcher Brown, playing the role of Captain of the Sea Hawk, Gregory's yacht, lent a truly nautical air to the performance that blended well with the thunder and lightning oil stage. -slF'

scenes of the third act like a vet eran.
 Lyman Snow, who provided both the love il. .5erest and the corpse, was eloquent in both. Juneau audiences will attend the Coliseum Theatre for many weeks before they see any vic- tim of murder collapse as effectively and as pathetically-in a pool Of blood and on a convenient rug, as did MT. Snow.
 One of the most sympathetic roles and played with the most enthusi- asm, was that of George Folta as Paul Cooper, the loyal, although sometimes -doubting friend of Greg ory, who occasionally felt the urge to murder himself-especially when he regarded the talkative novelist Tom Hellan. as Lynn Rogers, eld- erly caretaker of Hawk Island, rem dered significant performance, and was, perhaps of all the players, the most confident. before the footllghtS.
 Joe Sterling's interpretation of Barker, faithful butler whose loyal ty to his employer led him to stel the spark-plugs from the launch in which police were to be summoned was thoroughly enjoyable.
 Because the plot, of necessity, sub ordinates them to second place, the actresses are left to the last. Of these, Doris Freeburger, as Madeline Austen, the unwilling and somewhat witless cause of the murder, played a difficult role with sensitivity and judgment Both in the first act, as sthe mistress of the man who later is murdered, and in the third, when she discovered her husband to be-
