JMflVThe wheat market's most vigorous action today was concentrated in the first ball bour of trading when prices rose as much as cent, with buying based largely on reports of better milling de mand and a cold ware over part of the grain belt. Thereafter prices fluctuated ra ther nerrously, losing about half of the early adrance at times. The close was within cent of the day's high point, howerer. An increase of 10 cents a barrel in the export flour subsidy on ship ments from Atlantic and Gulf ports was announced Just before the cloae.r , - Wheat finished Vl- higher than Saturday, May C8, July C8-. Liverpool TJtuetUed Ldrerpool closed off to M up, b e I n g unsettled by selling from a large milling house. ., Export demand for North American wheat remained Quiet although approximately 150,000 bushels of Canadian were sold and reports indicated a cargo of domestic hard winter was taken by Vladivostok on top of sales of Pacific coast wheat to the same port late last week.

Phillips Oppenheim CHAPTER XXXV "I must ask you once more to re aaember," Matresser said, "that I am here today an amateur in all the , subterfuges of diplomacy or the con- ventiona of political methods. If what I say sounds well, imperti nent forgive me. A fortnight ago, I think it was, you succeeded in ob taining a vote of confidence in the Chamber by a majority of thirteen votes. 1 Supposing you had been in our full confidence and lost that vote, you yourself would have been a political derelict for the time and Monsieur Desselin, once more a . free-lance journalist. You both would : possess information which, if any of it leaked out, would have ruined the whole scheme. To put it plainly, for some days until your successor v was appointed, there would : have been no France with whom we could deal and a hungry press would be barking at you." Lacheur twirled his moustache nerrously. "So having come to that decision,1 he observed, you took the destiny of France into your own keeping and legislated, as it were, for her." "Do you complain T" Matresser asked.! It was a vital thrust Neither seemed prepared with a reply. "A single paragraph, a single headline in one of your newspapers or ours," Matresser continued, "and the affair was finished. Our govern ment would have resigned and the moment would- have passed. As things are at present we are in a unique position. Our cabinet has de . elded upon this measure. We have n enormous majority and it will be law before we go to the country" J "In other . words, Desselin ob served, with good humored cynicism, "you are going to act first and tell the people afterwards." . r That is our intention, but mean while the swing of great events wOl have started. Germany will have changed her government, her dic . tator will hare resigned. She will ' become once more a monarchy, but this time limited monarchy with a predominant Lower- House. A similar change in Austria will be brought about without a dissentient vote. Italy will follow her lead." 'a4 that faulgnifieant but still to be 'reckoned with country France," Desselin asked with gentle sarcasm, "what provisions have you made for her continued existence . upon the map r . s ' . ' "Thank us once more for our reti cence," Matresser replied. "We hare no means of knowing how strong the Royalists of France may be, but it Is our profound conviction that your country can never again revert to any form of monarchical govern ment. Tour revolution went too deep, cut too permanently into the heart of the people. Nevertheless, our silence, of which you are com plaining, has been your security. I will oven go so far as to suggest that our government in this instance has acted with generosity. She suf fered the .worst blow sines the war at vour hands, my friends,' when you fancied that -you saw salvation in Italy. She stiffened her ups ana accepted what was coming to her, but that waa the end of the League of Nations." r ' . "Ton travel fast. Lord Mat resser." Desselin remarked. "The , League of Nations still functions. It " still has a great future.'" , "The League of Nations," Mat. resser pronounced firmly, "was moribund from the first day sanc tions were declared against Italy and individual countries began to make excuses- The League of Na- tions waa established to act col lectively or net at alL The first state which shunned its responsi bilities and was allowed to remain - in the ranks reduced the League of Nations to impotency." " r Lacheur glanced at tha dock. ; ' "Lord llatresser,1 he said, "al thorh we feel that we must offer you err corrstulations for the manner in which you have conducted this amazing conversation, you are without a doubt in need of rest. You and L Desselin, had better go down to Rambouillet and meet our friend here again this afternoon. It is necessary that we confer with the President at once. The final object of your mission, I presume, Lord Matresser, is the cancellation of the orders under which the French Fleet is at sea?" "Not in the least," Matresser as sured him. "It is quite understood at our Admiralty that that sort of business is only a game of chess. Automatically I hear that our North Sea and Atlantic squadrons are both on their way to the Channel, which they will reach some time be fore your heavier units. Our Home Fleet, too, is looking forward to the opportunity of entertaining your people as soon as their destination is known." A few moments' awkward silence ensued, but Matresser was prompt to show that, although he had quali fied in no school of diplomacy, he stOl possessed a certain share of the layman's equivalent tact Our southern Channel ports complain so often of being neg lected, he remarked. I speak only as an outsider now but I have heard it said that a visit from the French Mediterranean Fleet was overdue and would probably relieve the ten sion in certain other quarters. My own opinion is that for two great and friendly nations there is scarce ly enough fraternization between our militant forces." "May we know your movements for the next few hours. Lord Mat resser7 the Premier asked. "It is possible that the President may de sire to see you himself.'" ; -l snau be at your disposal,' was the somewhat weary reply. "From hero I shall go to our Embassy to discover what arrangements have been made for a temporary succes sor to LiOTd Someroy, and I shall probably sleep there unto I am sent for." The two French statesmen took formal leave of their visitor. Neither was willing to commit himself to any definite expression. Lacheur touched the belt and a secretary took the departing guest inhis charge. "It will mean bringing the Amer icans back to Paris," Desselin pointed out as soon as the two men were alone. "The bourgtoiai wOl be on their knees to us. One has not heard much of this man Matresser but ho seems honest. The whole scheme fits in with the reports we have had from all our agents during the last few months, except-" Lacheur nodded. "Except that it was Impossible to believe that England was not going to ask a big price. Has she any thing up her slee-o with Washing ton, do you suppose T" -:--. "Impossible 1" Desselin declared. "No one knows better than England that the United States army will nerer fight In Europe again." "It makes a great headline for the people," Lacheur reflected. "What do you think, my friend? The greatest headline of the cen tury , "ITfTT YEARS OF PEACE i f..r PLEDGED 1" Desselin was swinging his cyo- giasa recKiessiy, us mouth was twitching. He presented the ap- pearanco of a man tortured with doubts. - His fingers were upon the gats which led into the promised land, but fear and doubt still dis tracted him. "If one could only trust that per fidious country r he muttered. There eame a' morning after Ma tresser's return from Paris when his London telephone bell rang in vain, when his servants in reply to per sistent questions could only repeat that his lordship had left town for tho country Xlighty events wars still shaping themselves, all Europe was still in convulsions, but the dan ger point had passed and Matresser ' and his long gray ear, with the lit tle brown dog curled up by his side, was racing homeward through the early morning mists. All that man could do he bad done. His personal commitments he had brought to a triumphant finish. Matresser was a free lance, and ho took leave of no one. He stole out of Berkeley Square at a little before nine in the morning. At half-past eleven he passed through the wide- flung gates of the Great House and received his first shock. There in a corner of the Park, amply protected by every description of improvised shelter, stood the ajuminum air plane in which he had made his two famous cruises across Europe. Ho stopped for a moment, staring at it. "How long has the plane been there ?" he asked the lodgekeeper. "About ten days, your lordship. the man replied. "The same pilot who took you off brought her lady ship back and they have been out on several flights. The pilot has en gaged a mechanic from Norwich. We understood that he was waiting lor your lordship a return. Matresser nodded and drove slow ly through the inner gates and round the great circular sweep to the front doors. Henry Yates, his hair more disheveled than ever and his face one broad grin, was standing there to greet him. Matresser descended from the car, took his hands and wrung them. "All well, Henry?" Matresser in quired. "Her ladyship has been very anx ious to see you, sir," Yates replied. "She is in her boudoir now." Matresser nodded. "I will come at once," be said. Magda approved of her surround ings. She followed her master down the hall, keeping an inch or two from his heels. , "Can't help it, Yates," Matresser observed, stooping to pat tho dog's head. "She was given to me by a keeper at the shooting lodge and she means to stick." They passed on to the small re ception room where the Countess of Matresser waa awaiting her son. She was seated in her usual hirh- backed, tapestry-covered chair, her eyes aa wonderful as ever, always -watching. Nevertheless, he received a shock aa ho drew near to her. At last, my dear Ronald." aha sighed. "I cannot tell you how wel come you are. Why did you not warn me cnat i might wake some morn ing and find myself famous t" "How did I know?" he asked. "What .have you done?" "It is not L dear." she answered. "It's you." "You have been reading those newspapers," he remarked. "After all, I am your mother. He waved the subject away, his eyes' fixed on her wasted features. "I want to talk about you," ho said. "This Norfolk winter has been too much for you." She smiled. Ton find mo changed?" ahe asked anxiously. "You are . a little tliinner," he answered, "but your eyes are as beautiful aa ever and your voice is -quite steady." - j. "How I wanted to see you and to confess, dear Ronald," tho . said. "New that we are here alone, yon shall know the truth. Lately I have felt ao tired at times and I have wanted to bo at my best when yon came back that I have taken one or I another of these fashionable medi- etnes of tho moment everyone is talking about. If I lived in France or if I were not the Countess of. Matresser, they would be called ? drugs. Always before your arrival : home, I used to send to that Doctor Lacon, whom I wish I had never met, because I hated that you should ' find me looking old. ... This time I have learned my lesson. ' I have , taken nothing. Ton see me as I am a very tired eld lady." (To be continued) iut,sf n Quotations at Portland - P0BTXX1, Ore yah. SOv-AP) Prodaee Xsehange: ' - Batter:.
