the court of today'i tron and broad mar
ket. Total mIm of 126,000 abaree' were
more than double tboee of the precedtns
Mtnlona.
Apart from a irowtnr belief that the re
sent eel line has been omewhat overdone
and that the Immediate future offera more
ground for hope than discouragement, there
appeared to be no de.tn.lo or tangible reason
for the rlee.
For the moat part the advance wa

Htatts steel to 11- gase plausibility to the
rumor that events of Importance may de
velop at the quarterly meeting of the cor
poration two weeks hence.
Recoveries of I to s points in automobile
Issues, General Motors leading, were re
garded as a drive against the short Inter
oats, but the greater strength of metals.
Including sine shares, seemed to originate
tn a real renewal, domestic as well aa for
eliro of laat year's Inquiry for thee products.
Mealeana, Including oils, responded to the
dleaolullon of the joint commission and
shippings were' 2 to t points better on In
timations that foreign freight rates are
likely to hold Indefinitely, Industrial Alco
hol, American Woolen, sugar and other
stocks dependent upon tariff prospects made
variable, but fof the most part, substantial
Improvement
The Inquiry for rails was more sustained
than at any recent period, Reading and
other coalers making the pace for grangers,
transcontt centals and low grade issues, Best
quotations were made in the last hour,
which also waa the most Active.
The firm tone of sterling and franca was
the more noteworthy because of the greater
weakness of rates on Berlin, Vienna and
Petrograd. while exchange on - Roma waa
at the lowest level since tho war.

The decision ot the United States
supreme court in placing; the literal
interpretation on the Mann act law
In upholding the decisions of the state
courts in the cases of Maury I'. Diggs,
F. Drew Caminetti and L. T. Hayes,
wilt" have no bearing on the future
workings of the United States De
partment of Justice, according to
Marshall Eberstein, agent in charge
of the local office of this bureau of
the secret service.'
The Mann act has been in operation
since lyiU. since that time about
half a hundred) cases have been tried
in the federal court in this state. Over
forty of these cases have been tried
sinccMr. Eberstein came to Omaha
three years ago.
In the three years Mr. Eberstein
has been at the head of the local
bureatrtnly two have been acquitted.
One man was acquitted in the United
States court in Omaha and one in
the court at Lincoln. Forty have
been convicted in the three years.
Twenty-two were convicted of violat
ing the law during 1916.
Evidence Elusive.
"As a matter of fact," declared Mr.
Eberstein, "practically all of the white
slave" cases are commercial, but this
feature is generally very hard to
prove. It is many times impossible
to obtain evdrnire proving the com
mercial feature when it is known to
be contained in the case.
Of the forty convictions in this
state since I have been in Omaha we
were positive of the commercial fea
ture in practically every case.
"The decision of the court will not
affect our methods at all. The law
remains the same. The law does not
make an exception for noncommer
cial cases, and our department in
making investigations and arrests has
never made exception. The decision
of the supreme court will not make
it any easier for us, will not influence
our work at all, and we intend to con
tinue as we have done in the past."

Reminhcent of Old Creole
Days-Beauregard 's Home
0
Standing ii) columned
majesty, the Beauregard
home is typical of old
New Orleans days. Its
slender Ionic pillars recall
the halcyon times of the
'fifties, when Louisiana
ball-rooms were thronged
with glittering toilettes
from the ateRtrt of great
modistes. One can
almost picture the court
ly master, as Tie returned
from the Mexican wars,
a hero of heroes, ac
claimed by North and
fYsv tf Ca. BtAUreiarJ
South alike a warrior worthy of his gallant Creole ancestry,
Fiery romance still makes the Beauregard home her own. In
recent years it has staged desperate scenes, even to bloody battles
between rival Italian clans.
That is the- piquant charm of New Orleans today; at any corner one
may stumble on an unexpected story, some fantastic tale of happenings
which make the past live again in the reality of modern times.
Everyone who b aGve to the thrill of romance wants to visit this
magic city now. Its cafes are a-bubble with lifej its ball-rooms again
resound to the music of Creole airs; its Opera House is packed to
the roof as in the early days of Calve. For the opening of the
Panama Canal has brought gold and gaiety to New Orleans once more.
