Traders were unable to muster any great amount of en- thusiasm over the gold price. The list, except for a few spots, how- ever, was not soft. Today's close was easy. The new gold price today was 48 cents above the London price but the dollar held to extremely nar- row range on the foreign exchange. Equities were mulled about in- differently at today's session al- though the drift was mostly lower. | There was a little short selling. Issues Go Up Homestake was bright and went up 20 points. U. 8.

J. W. Leadbetter, will leave port late today. The Cedar arrived in port yes- terday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock to take on oil and ballast before leav- ing for the gulf to look for the scow, which is considered a menace to navigation, Capt. Leadbetter said. Warnings to all ships and stations were sent out immediately upon the receipt on Tuesday of the Alder's report saying the scow was lost. Towing the scow, the Alder left Cape Hinchenbrook on Ocfober 20 and on the 21st a message was re- ceived from the vessel saying it had passed Cape St. Elias and the weather was good. No further word was received until Tuesday when the Alder arrived at Port Althorp and reported the loss of the scow during the storm, Capt. Leadbetter said. It is believed that the Alder struck the ggle early Sunday morning and that the scow was Jost on the same day when the storm became so severe that it was unable to tow it further. The Cedar will leave port as soon as the loading of oil and bal- last is completed and will proceed to the vicinity of the loss, from| where it will cruise east and west, | zigzagging in a southerly direction| to search for the scow, Capt. Lead- | better declared. If it is found, the| scow will be removed from th path of navigation and towed Ketchikan by the Cedar. When the message to proceed in search of the scow was received| the Cedar was completing a mp} throughout this district, leaving buoys and supplying the light sta- tions with coal. Practically every station, with the exception of Southeast Five Finger light station had been 'visited when the trig was interrupted, Capt. Leadbetter said. Only two good days have been encountered during the 22- day cruise, since the vessel left its base at Ketchikan, he declared.
