GRAIN | LIVESTOCK | WHEAT SCORES EARLY ADVANCE Canadian Government Crop Report Called Bullish— Corn Takes Setback Chicago, Nov. 12.—(AP)—Buying rushes in wheat today found offer- ings scarce, and brought about sharply higher prices. Estimates of a.new Argentine crop were current, PMtting the total of 10,000,000 bush- els under last year’s harvest. Mean- while, the Canadian government crop Teport was construed as bullish, in- dicating a loss since September of 12,000,000 bushels for the threc! prairie provinces. * Wheat closed firm, two cents to 2 1-2 cents net higher; corn 2 1-4 to 2 5-8 cents off; oats 1-4@3-8 to 1-2 cent down and provisions un- changed to 50 cents up. Oats were easier. Provisions tended upwards. In addition to the fact that the} SEIS Vaasa estimate of wheat production turned out to be Jess than in some quarters had been looked for, word was at hand today that the Argentine wheat crop has been badly damaged by rust. The rust news was contained in a dispatch from a Chicago crop expert at present in Buenos Aires, but it did not appear to imply first hand observation on his part. Corn showed a pronounced drop in prices at the start, and then became steadier. Leading trade authorities jcommenting on the government re- port as to corn yield said final fig- uers on corn may prove disappoint- ing to some people as did yester- day’s figures on Canandian wheat regarding which bears had made capital beforehand. Speculative buying of corn after the opening break was of rather free character at times. WHEAT MOVES UPWARD ON MILL CITY MARKET Minneapolis, Nov. 12.— (AP) — Wheat had a strong bulge today, ttrong cables, severe weather in western Canada and strength at Winnipeg over the holiday supply- ing the impetus.

STOCK MARKET FIRM AT CLOSE Stocks in Big Demand at Ris- ing Prices First Hour— Prices Recede Later New York, Nov. 12.—(AP)—Rep- resentative stocks were in big de- mand at rising prices during the first hour of today’s market. United States Steel touched 139 1-2; General Motors 132 5-8; International Har- vester 241 and Southern Railway 141 1-8, all the best levels since the current recovery began. Bulls were more enthusiastic as information of improved steel trade conditions and the optimistic ‘views of President Sloan of the General Motors regarding the 1928 earnings began to attract orders from the out- side on a wide scale, The rise naturhlly attained its largest proportions in shares showing large current earnings and promise of big profits in the final quarter. International Harvester, which had a sensational jump of 12 points yester- day, forged ahead further before it met sufficient shock to cause a re- action of about five points. Another high priced share, du Pont, diso showed conspicuous strength. Prices came down from the high levels in the second hour when the usual week-end profit-taking began. The closing was firm. Total sales approximated 900,000 shares.

Such news as came 4|to hand was generally favorable. Steel shares pointed upwards on the large increase in unfilled orders of the United States Steel corpora- tion last month followed by a rais- ing of prices by some subsidiaries. Motors _were hel by the raising 4 | of the Packard dividend and the-an- 1.46 nouncement of an extra dividend of $2.50 on General Motors common, coupled with the placing of that issue on a $5 annual basis. Most of the leaders of the motor indus are optimistic over next year’s busi- ness. ~Tobacco shares, under the leader- ship of the American Tobacco issues, responded to reports of steadily in- creasing earnings of the leading companies, due, in to intensive advertising and selling methods, Mercantile shares and mail order issues moved upward in expectation of holiday trade, Montgomery Ward, Sears Roebuck, May Department: Stores, Woolworth, R. H. y, Ar- nold Constable and several others breaking through to new peak prices. The advance in oil shares was temporarily checked by the discovery Sen-Chi, started taking over com- mand of the Wuhuan garrison. The military garrison yesterdi re- quested Tang Sen-Chi to renga as commander in chief. Japanese marines have landed at Hankow. “TTH HEAVEN’ IS GOLDEN'S BEST Comedy-Drama Coming Here Monday With Some of Orig- inal New York Cast John Go) den,\ producer of plays with hum&n interest, and who has many sensational play successes to his credit, has given the theatre probably his greatest success in “Seventh Heaven,” which comes to the Bismarck auditorium on Mon- day following d most successful run of two years at the Booth Theatre, New York city. The rise of two characters from an unpleasant life in the streets of Paris forms the basis of the plot. The first scene pictures these two in lowly circumstances, their lot dignified only by that peace to something better which slumbers in every breast, and a consciousness the overbrooding presence of “le bon Dieu.” Out of a sewer manhole, Chico, the hero, emerges in time to save Diane, a poor cringing creature, from a murderous assault ge her brutal, drunken — sister. ving saved the girl, he rather regretéthe incident. Thé quick yush of ciry cumstances, however, virtually force him to take Diane to his attic home—her “Seventh Heaven.” Chico is an interesting study} fearless, independent, aspiring, to the ny, station of a street- cleaner. His child-like joy in ob- taining a position as street-cleaner should shame some of us who com- plain concerning “our lot in life.” Chico a“mits he is “a very remark- able fellow.” This sense of self- appreciation is a serving factor in hie life. He seeks to implant this self-confidence and courage in Diane’s mind. What follows dem- onstrates his success. In a most! dramatic climax in the play, she overpowers the sister before whom she lore cringed in ter- ror and rises to superb heights of womanhod. The play is the finest exemplification of the transforming power of an ideal. -Chico says: “ , that’s the idea.” Prominent in the cast are: Ed- «ward Shaw as “Chico,” Billy Janice Meredith as “Diane,” Sara Kyles as “Nana,” and others.
