opening, followed by rally. A break In
prices was caused by rumors that Hutch

those who talked Of the matter, though II
was reported that he had lost heavily on
both wheat and corn on the recent heavy
advance and on the subsequent break.
Hutchinson had not been on the noor "a
nothing could be found out.
The early rumors ceased TO circulate,
but later it was said that Hutchinson was
mysterlously missing. Inquiry at the
