Chicago Grain and Provisions,
Chicago, June 2. With Shippers, eleva
tors and Industries competing here for
corn, the market today showed uncommon
strength. The close was nervous, 1 to So
net higher. Including July at $1.69 to
1.69 and Sept. $1.60 to 1.60. Oats
gained to lc. In provisions the out
come varied ' from unchanged figures to
80 centB advance.
Notwithstanding that corn receipts In
Chicago made a big total, the readiness
with which they were absorbed much more
than outbalanced any bearish effect. On
tne other hand, bullish sentiment was
stimulated by advances to the provision
market due more or less to big exports.
Besides rural offerings of corn were not
o er plentiful and seasonable low tempera
tures were approaching from the west.
Under such circumstances shorts covered
freely, and on the dips an active demand
from commission houses became evident.
Considerable apprehension was expressed
as to results brought out important dis
tilcts traversed by the cold wave.
Oats sympathized with the upward ten
dency of corn, strength of rye and barley
was also a bullish fatcor.
Knowledge that packers were active
buyers of lard helped to lift provisions.
In this connection it was pointed out that
exports of lard and meats last week
totalled 96.000.000 pounds, an amount
nearly double the aggregate a year ago.

FINANCIAL
New Tork, June . With an overturn
of shares approaching the 2,000,000 mark
and Influenced by heavy public buy
ing, all classes of speculative and Invest
ment issues advanced sharply today on
the stock exchange, gains ranging from
fractions to 19 points In a session crowded
with excitement. Many stocks scored ad
vances which resulted in new high rec
ords. Only the Mercantile Marine stocks
exhibited weakness, and their declines
were largely made up late In sympathy
with the general upward rush.
Authoritative denial late in the session
of a report that steel interests had con
ferred on prices of the commodity to the
government, was followed by strong de
mand for steel issues during, the final
hour. Nova Scotia steel extended Its rise
to 19 points. Crucible to 13 and Gulf to
6. while United States Steel's advance of
1 carried this issue to a new figure,
$1.10.
Oils and motors, with gains of 18 points
for Mexican Petroleum and 17 and 11, re
spectively, for Studebaker and General
Motors, were Illustrative of the general
strength displayed in the speculative list,
Studebaker reaching new high ground of
$1.24. The strength of motors was at
tributed to reiterated reports of combina
tions. American Woolen, with a gain of
14 points, advanced to a new high record
at $1.11. An early demand for Invest
ment railroads was not sustained, but rep
resentative Issues like Southern Pacific es
tablished good advances. Sales amounted
to 1.800.000 shares.
Money rates for industrial collateral ad
vanced to 10 per cent in final dealings,
but without affecting the upward course
of prices. Sharp recoveries were made
in both Italian and French exchange, lire
rallying more than 60 points.
The general bond market was strong,
but Liberty Issues eased off except for the
Victory 4s, which sold at a slight pre
mium at 100.2. Old United States bonds
were unchanged on call.

Thirty-Eight Men Walk Out
When Contractors Refuse
Demand for 12 1-2
Cents Raise.
Thirty-eight bricklayers struck
yesterday when contractors affili
ated with the Omaha Building Ex
change refused to grant them a 'flat
scale of $1 an hour, an increase of
ZXA cents.
Theome Builders and the Skin
ner Packing company are principal
ly affected.
Many of the independent contrac
tors have agreed to the demands of
their men and no strike is in prog
ress at these places.
The men requested the increase
more than two weeks ago. They
contend that all bricklayers in the
nearby cities, such as St. Joseph,
Kansas City and Denver, are already
receiving $1 per hour.
At a meeting last Friday contrac
tors, members of the Omaha Build
ing Exchange, adopted resolutions
stating that should the demands of
the men be granted building oper
ations in the city would be greatly
curtailed.
Unable to Meet Demands.
"The Home Builders find them
selves unable to comply with the
demands of the bricklayers," de
clared W. B. Jones, manager of the
building department. "The work
upon which we are engaged was fig
ured under the old scale. An in
crease at the present time would
greatly lessen the expected profits,"
he said.
Eight bricklayers, employed by
the Home Builders on work at the
Union Pacific shops, are out.
Officials of the Skinner Packing
company, 27 of whose employes
struck, refused to comment on tne
action of the strikers. )
No conferences have been held be
tween union officials and employers.
Heads of the Skinner company
stated that they were awaiting de
velopments.

My Heart and My Husband
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations oj a Wife
The Way Bess Dean Absolved Mad
e and What Happened Afterward.
The effect of Dicky's protest was
like that of a small bomb dropped
into the midst of our little group.
I started at him in amazement, Alice
Holcombe's face registered horrified
surprise, while Bess Dean gave a
start, then burst into a low laugh,
which she kept up until I suspected
that she was using it as a pretext to
gain time to collect her wits.
My suspicion was confirmed when
I interrupted an exchange of glances
between her and Alice Holcombe.
Miss Holcombe's eyes were warn
ing, questioning Miss Dean's reas
suring. "Don't blame your wife," Miss
Dean said at last when she had stop
ped laughing. "She never lifted her
iut ferninst ye."
Dicky turned toward her with a
sorrowful air.
"Didn't I order enough supper for
your ladyship?" he demanded. "If
not, it was surely not necessary to
give me so forcible a reminder. Just
a word, a smile "
Bess Dean Explains.
"Get along with you!" Miss Dean
admonished him, giving him a little
push. "You weren't kicked at all,
that is you were never meant to be
kicked. Alice meant to land one on
my own innocent ankles, and miscal
culated her distance. That's the an
swer." Dicky's face expressed ludicrous
bewilderment.
"Is that her usual method of re
straining you?" he asked.
"Oh, yes!" Miss Dean murmured
with a martyred air. "Nobody
knows what I suffer at her hands, I
:nean her feet. Any time I get what
she terms 'indiscreet' in my conver
sation she lands on me. Ti it's the
reason I always wear high shoes.
"Indiscreet?" Dicky echoed. "I
say, this is getting interesting. You
were talking. I believe, about our
hostess. Never mind the kicks. I'll
protect you with me life. Go on, tell
us some more."
Did I fancy it or had he glanced
at me quickly, furtively? I had been
so careful to keep from him any hint
of Milly Stockbridge's unfortunate
delusions and actions that I was no
doubt unduly apprehensive concern
ing his finding out anything about
her. I waited breathlessly for Bess
Dean's answer.
"Just Look There."
"Well, if you must know," Miss
Dean said with well staged reluc
tance, "our little Milly has about
the meanest and sulkiest temper this
side of you may name the place,
I, of course, as a school ma'am,
don't dare to," she interpolated,
smiling at Dicky.
He promptly supplied the omis
sion. "Thanks so much," she cooed
sweetly. "Well to continue, you re
member her husband broke her cher
ished punch bowl that night of the
reception he's so awkward, poor
chap, on account of his lameness,
and though he managed to keep her
down the rest of the evening, it's
my private belief he doped her to
do it. Ever since she's been raising
seven kinds of " she paused ex

pectantly, her eyes twinkling at
Dicky.
Again Dicky came to her rescue,
this time with a ludicrously solemn
air, as if he were murmuring an in
vocation. "I really think you ought to go
over to see her," Miss Dean said
irrelevantly. "They sy she's been
swearing at Kenry in seven lan
guages, and she may need a relay."
"She must be a pleasant party,"
Dicky replied. "It's a wonder Stock
bridge doesn't strangle her. I would
if she had any leading strings on
me."
Both Alice Holcombe and I shiv
ered involuntarily, although we
were both relieved at the clever way
Bess Dean had marked the real rea
son for Alice Holcombe's unfortu
nate signal to her beneath the table
the fear that she might unwitting
ly reveal Mrs. Stockbridge's jeal
ousy. But Miss Dean laughed light
ly. "What a cave man you must be!"
she exclaimed, pretending to shrink
away from Dicky. "Is that the way
you keep your wife in subjection?
I thought she appeared quite sub
dued." "Give her a whaling every morn
ing whether she needs it or not,"
Dicky rejoined complacently. "But

A waiter made his way to a table

Regional Director
Bush Predicts Bumper
Wheat Crop This Year
Regional Director Bush of the.
southwestern region is out with a
letter in which he anticipates a
1,000,000,000 bushel wheat crop this
year. Last year the crop aggregated
900,000,000 and taking present pros
pects as the basis for making his
estimate, Mr. Bush is of the opinion
that the yield this year will be fully
100,000,000 bushels greater than last.
Anticipating the enormous crop
cf wheat, Mr. Bush is urging upon
tanners in Nebraska and other
states the importanac of providing
storage facilities for their grain. He
calls attention to the fact that there
is no necessity for rushing the
wheat to the market as soon as
threshing is finished. The govern
ment has fixed the maximum price
to be paid for the 1419 crop and
consequently there will he little, if
any fluctuation. The only possibili
ty of any increase over the set
price will be in instances where
millers will be forced to buy wheat
to take care of their immediate
wants. He is of the opinion thai
these instances will be rare,
debate on the league of nations.
Big Brush Factory to Move
.lain Plant to Omaha Soon
For the reason that the Omalis
wholesale market is absorbing prac
tically the entire output of the Oma
ha and Duluth brush factories, A
R. Wiens, of the Omaha Wient
brush factory, is making arrange
ments to move the parent plant o!
the concern, now located at Duluth.
Minn., to this city.
Two years ago Mr. Wiens estab
lished the Omaha plant here, locat
ing at Forty-fourth street and the
belt line. The business grew to such
proportions that the company was
compelled to purchase a building
and three lo(s at Twenty-eighth
street and the belt line. The build
ing was enlarged and improved and
two extra lots adjoining have been
since added so as to give addi
tional space for enlargement.
