PAGE EIGI1T Chicago Wheat Hits New Lows 5 Cent Fall at Winnipeg Plat European Demand Slackness Factors CHICAGO. Ug." !-(-New low price records for the season In the Chicago wheat market re sulted late today from fire cents a bushel fall of quotations at Winnipeg. Surprising slackness of orer teas demand for North American wheat, either United States or Canadian, had decidedly unset tling market effects, and led to sharp increase of selling orders from eastern sources, as well as from houses with southwest con nection. These orders caught the Chicago wheat market bare of ade quate buying support, and forced a setback of 34 cents from the day's top prices. ' Corn, oats and soy beans all emulated wheat, and tumbled to . seasonal low marks unreached heretofore In Chicago. At the close, wheat futures here were l-24 cents under yes terday's finish. Sept $ 1.13-1.13 , Dec $1.13 T4-1.14. May $1.15 , corm 4-l down, Sept. 94 Dec. 65-7., May 66, oats off Sept. 2774-28, and rye showing -l Vs drop, Sept77.

"The Captive Bride ; CHAPTER XIX Tbe i following morning Denny dtood on the path jbst above the compound, watching Harp swing his hunting parties into line for the out trail. In 'the compound below her the stir and color of six hunting parties getting under wsy was like that of a small army. The Indian guides and camp tend ers, arrayed in their working " clothes fringed cariboo shirts and leather chaps hurried about, tend. ' ing to last-minute details. , The morning was vocal with the barking of dogs, the whinnying of horses, and the laughter and jocu La ri ties of men in holiday Spirit. Rio Carew, very smart in correct riding clothes, stood beside her sad dled mount, an English riding crop dangling from her wrist. Her pretty face was carefully made up with powder, rouge, and eye shadow. Her dark eyes followed Derek Haskell as he moved along the pack trains. checking items against a list he car ned. Doctor Van Cleve and the Irish colonel were both busy with their saddle horses; but the three young Viennese engineers . had gathered with the Wrangell girls under the cottonwoods to exchange last-minute promises. A cluster of Thaltan maidens watched them, giggling and shoving one another as they made jokes about the visitors. Wil low HaskelL, the most animated girl in the group, kept turning her face toward the door of the warehouse, beside which a rOw of round-eyed , Indian toddlers stood sucking their , thumbs and regarding the scene with solemn enjoyment. ' But it was on Captain Jack Page that Willow's eyes rested. He was leaning in the doorway of the ware house, surveying the proceedings - in the compound with a proprietary air, apparently oblivious to the cal eulated bumping of every Keith employee who passed in and out. Denny saw him from distance and told herself that he. at least. was showing an interest in the busi ness he hoped to acquire, while Rev- elry Bourne was conspicuous by his absence. When every member of each out- tit was in the saddle. Harp, heading Kio a party, began to move slowly toward the gate of the compound. He passed out. drawing the. entire 1 solorful cavalcade behind him. - The column began the ascent of "the road leading up past the front of River House to the top of the hill back ef Tamigan. A cheer brcke from the spectators assembled out side the compound. A parting1 lute of three blasts from the MakT whistle drew Denny's gaze momen tarily to the river boat lying a short distance down river Captain Bonnie was standing in front of his pilot-house, his blond head shining in the early sun, both hands aloft shaking a farewell to the adventur era. All the riders turned in their saddles to wave their hats in aponse. After the departure of the hunt. era, Tarnigan drowsed through the sweet monotony of Indian summer ays. Kiver House, empty of nests. fell under the spell of the sunny, autumnal quiet. Denny formed the habit or spending several hoars each morning in the office off the ard room, going over the records of the enterprise her father had built up in this, remote wilderness. She was amazed at its widespread ramifications. From all parts of the world came men of wealth and rank. each of whom paid thousands of dol- tars, not primarily to hunt, as she had at first supposed; but to rest from the mad. commercial scramble . of civilization. Further investigation revealed how beneficently her father's enter prise influenced the lives and well- Wng of all the natives and white settlers within the radius of his out I post empire.

House of Keith was a feudal de mesne. She began to have a respect for this business which her mother had always derided and despised; a pride in the name and heritage that were hers through the man whose wise administration of power had earned the loving loyalty of his free- spirited subjects. She had moments of regret that the name of Keith would soon be no more than a legend on the Stikine. She was selling her heritage for what? Money to gratify her moth er's vanity and her own. Money to make a display of the ceremony which modern youth considered more or less of a sacrament. The thought was not a pleasant one. Another problem was constantly in her mind. Within a month she must decide who was to be the new master of River House Revelry Bourne or Jack Page? Without admitting it to herself, she had from the first favored Bourne. ... But Denise had in tended to sell to him only after forc ing him to vie with Page for her favor. Events, however, had not turned out as she had planned. Page was always at hand, plead' ing his cause, nattering her by his deference and attendance. Bourne, on the contrary, had made not the slightest effort to gam her favor. Even when the Maid was in. she might have forgotten his presence in Tarnigan had it not been for his single weekly call of a few minutes, and the fact that his dog, Tongass, chose to spend much of his time ashore with her It had happened that every time Bourne called, Page also was pres ent Yet the master of the Stikin Maid invariably greeted the other river captain with a careless cor diality free from any hint that he considered him a competitor. Like wise Bourne appeared to be una ware that Page was the constant companion of the mistress of River House. . Bourne's behavior exasoerated Denny. She insisted to herself that there was nothing personal in her resentment; she was merely disap pointed because her father's friend was so weakly submitting to an in vasion which threatened the busi ness his family had pioneered. Yet, despite her arguments with herself, she was becoming more and more concerned. And of late a soirit of retaliation had caused her to tov with the thought of letting pe t . w- - buy River House, The dreamy, uneventful fort- night following the departure of the hunters came to an end on the first cloudy day Denny had known in Tarnigan. The mail was dna that day. All morning she had watched for the first glimpse of the Jfatd rounding Lonewater Point. At lunch time Honey-jo had volun teered the information, "Bad water above the Canyon. I dont think the skipper will get here before tomor row morning. Miss Denise.' Later, in an effort to forget her disappointment, Denny went riding with J ack Page on the birch-covered plateau above Tarnigan. Their homeward course brought them back to the tan of th i;p - from the river at the upper end of tte villa. They stood and tnnktA n the village below. The peaked, red roofs poked vp through the yellow of blowing trees; smoke was whip-: ping from the stovepipes of the In- dian cabins along Tarnigan Creek. uennya gaze instinctively moved to I the left where, two hundred feetl down, the Stikine flowed past the I base of the cliff. ; . - There waa nothing of Indian sum mer tranquillity about it today. b i . - . . . . . rvwenui ana gray as enixied steel, it rushed southward undo- th cast sky.

It was a moment before she made out what it was a dead bull moose, circling momentarily in an eddy. The ant lers that had been the pride and defense of the splendid creature bobbed pathetically up and down as' it came churning through the upper canyons. ' j "Ugh 1" She closed her eyes, turn ing quickly from the sight, and stumbled against Page. Instantly his arms closed protectively about her. He began to speak words hur ried and husky with earnestness. Denny I This damned cruel river is no place for you. You're too soft, too fine for this rough life, darling. I knew it from the first. Let me help you get away, little girl. Turn Kiver House over to me and tomor row any time you say 111 take you down to Wrangell and " "Please, Jack." Denny's revulsion against the implacable force sweep ing past the cuff had caused her to lie against his breast unresisting for a moment. But now she thrust him gently from her. He released her at once and, step ping back a pace, looked down at her with a half-rueful, half-humorous smile that gave his dark face a singularly engaging expression. Lord I I've done it again I" he said. "From the first night I met you. you've been able to do that to me, Denny, even though I swore then I'd keen my feelinsa hidden from you. Oh. I know I haven't a chance with you 1 But well, I cant help loving you and wanting to spare you unhappiness." He raised her hand to his lips, then held it between both of his own. "There. Forgive me for annoying you. I promise it won't happen again. But I did mean what I said about this country being too raw for one of your fine sensibilities. It's as much for your sake as for mine that I urge you to let me relieve you of River House so that you may go back to civilization." Denny withdrew her hand, but she was impressed by his restraint and show of earnestness. He seemed sin cerely sympathetic and dependable on this gray autumn day when she was stirred more than usual by a formless dread of this northern land. At the moment she : felt the need of a human ally against this country which gripped her at on' I expected moments with Hs incongrn- I ,.. ... a 2 a. i . ous beauty and its savage cruelty: against this river that lay in wait and spoke to her in compelling tones.
