OPERATIONS ARE TWO-SIDED June 13.—The stock market sober mood today with timinished dealings and a reactionary trend Jperations ‘were of n two sided character ‘hroughout rafls again affording the basis the forenoon's activity on the construc side, whiie specluities, particularly Mexicanx, motor and spipping Issues repre- sented the offsetting features. Dealings In ralls were restricted largely to secondary issues, such as-Western Mary- land. common and preferred, Denver & Rio Grande, preferred, Wheeling & Lake Krie, Lake Erie &Western, Rock Island and Long Islund. Gains of 2 to 4 points prevall- ed In this division with heaviness in read- ink, Norfolk & Western, the Pacifics, New York (Central and leading grangers and trunk lines. Standard lssues suffered from the restraints imposed by the differences between the Rallway Brotherhoods and the rallway managers. Offictal and other advices touching oe Mexlcan conditions contributed to the un- settlement of the final hour:and some of the more active motors continued their de- clinning tendency of recent days. Munitions were extremely variable as a group, and Marine preferred was under pressure until Just before the close, when it rose briskly With some of the metals and American Beet Sugar, the latter supplying the only new cord of the day on its further advance of 254@5974. United States Steel retained itx position as the most active stock of the New York avinced & more most active stock of the session, but made an extreme decline of slightly more than W point, with scant recovery. Minor steels und affiliated Industrials followed the irreg- ular course of war stocks. Total sales of stockes amounted to 576, 000 shares, Publication of the details of the long pending Russian loan of $50,000,000 was in- teresting chiefly for its proof of Increasing supremacy of this country as a world cen- ter of finance. More gold was received from Canada with a nominal export of the metal to 'Spuin. Bonds were irregular and rather feature- less. Total sales par value $4,170,000.

Elks’ Convention is No Place for Loving Swains, Says Nelson, “Oh!* “He's like manna from Heaven! “Mommer, if we have this much fun every time we comc to Omaha, this old burg'll never lose the Elks' con- ventioh. Around the polished mahogany ros- trun. of the Llks' club yesterday, where the state convention gath- ered, half a hundred “Hello Bills” doubled up with mirth at the sight of Arthur Nelson, one of the members of the @maha Elks' quartette, who was vainly probing every nook and cranny of the building in search of something which he refused to reveal to his friends. "\’\ ha'dja lose, Atie?” an't we help you find it?” “No! 'Tend to you own darn busi- ness!” “All right, Art. Don't get huffy If we lost something we wouldn’t de- prive you of the fun of helping to hunt for it. C'mon, be a good fellow. Tell us what you're hunting for,” they Loaxul “Grrr-r-r-rrr!” Arthur dashed madly out of the building. L Clyde Sunblad, up in the marriage license clerk’s office, produced the so- lution of Nelson's mystery. Nelson obtained a marriage license early Monday morning and intended to wed Miss Hattie O'Rourke of Ben-i | son the next day. Evidently his bliss- | ful condition dazed him, because he forgot that Elks, especially at con- ventions, are great practical iokers. | He told one of them confidentially that he had a marriage license in his pocket. An hour afterwards he was sure | he had the licensz, but he was won- | dering what became of it. As a result, his marriage was post- poned for twenty-four hours until the leader of the xKractlcal jokers con- sented to returm\ the necessary docu- ment, “Why Arthur, if you'd have told us what you were looking for. you could have had it at once. We didn’t know you were looking for this,” they in- noccu!ly told him. “Aw, you guys make me tired!” Wher Nelson appeared at the mar- riage license clerk’s office and was refused a duplicate, he left word with Cupid Stubbendorf that if .any brother Elk appeared for a marriage license, to issue a warning to stay away from the Elks’ club until safely married. Consumption of Cotton During May Shows Big Increase Washington, D. C., June 13.—Cot- ton used during \Ia) amounted to 674.867 running bales, the census bureau announced today. That com- pares with 493,798 bales used in May a year ago. Cotton used for the ending May 31 was 3 bales, compared with ago.
