Grain Letter

Chicago, Dec. 7-WHEAT-An erratic
wheat market today, but prices have held
well and show some advance from pre-
ViOus close. This was in face of large
primary receipts and no strength from any
of the cables. Argentine shipments were
cables reported rains interfering with
the harvest. There was a nervous feeling
over report of probable disruption between
Holland and Portugal and market firmed
on it. Northwest stocks will show about
900 increase for the week and viii prob
ably give us an increase in our visible the
coming week The speculative business is
small and confined to larger locals. SEN
timent rather bullish and considerable ere
dence is given to the report that north
west receipts will fall off sharply jan
uary wheat was in good demand at 2szc
freely.
CORN-Corn has been firm without be-
ing active The best prices were not quite
maintained. Bad weather, wet and mild.
has been the best support. OF the 2l1 cars
here not one graded No. 2; the estimate
almost 4, 900 in four days. Export demand
not so brisk. Trade in December rather
light. but good deal for sale around CSC.
OATS-Oats have bee~ steady at &c
over close Thursday. The December-Nay
spread has narrowed to 23sc with however
cash business yesterday; not much do
ing today. Receipts Isl cars with TO for
Saturday.
VISIONS-Provisions prices have
not quite held today, everything off some
and trade not large. A feature has been
selling of December lard against pur-
chases of January There were 2S. 900 hogs
with p. 900 for Saturday and prices at

mo; she acted the same way.
Dr. J. a. NICK enzie saw Jessie Morri-
son on the street near the Castle home
just before the tragedy, but did not see
her carrying anything in her hands.
Mrs. Mary Stewart, who helped to I'M
dress. Jessie, said the defendant wore low
shoes. She said they looked just like
the ones on exhibit before the jury.
Mrs. Gus Heyman was shown Jessie's
collar and identified the razor cuts on it
as having been there the morning she
helped to undress her. She also told
about the several cuts in the waist. The
jury then examined the clothing.
The jury appears as robust as when
first sworn. The jury will be instructed
to return a verdict covering two degrees
of murder, three degrees of manslaugh-

The wounds on the neck ran from the
left ear around to the right. The prose-
cution insists, although they did not
prove it, that Jessie slashed herself with
the razor, that she took it in her right
hand, slashed it across her left arm and
shoulder three or four times and then
drew it around her neck twice. Such
thing was possible, according to the ma

RAISES A STORM.
Suspension of Three Santa Fe
Shopmen Causes Trouble.

A committee of boiler makers present
ed a grievance to the officials of the
Santa Fe shop, this morning Assistant
Supt. of Machinery r. P. c. San
derson received the men and promised
an Investigation of their complaint
would be made at once. Saturday morn
ing at 8 O'Clock is the hour set by Mr..
Sanderson for action on the complaint,
and unless something happens in thu
meantime, the matter is officially held in
allegiance until then.
Three or four days ago three men who
worked in the boiler shop were discharg-
ed by General Foreman Hickey. The
men are Bert Nichols, William Carrier
and G. Heller. Carrier and Heller are
apprentices. Foreman Hickey wanted
certain piece of work done and ordered
them to do it, The men said they were
engaged ar some work under orders Of
their foreman, that the work Mr.. Hickey
wanted done had not been assigned to
them by their foreman and they could
not do both jobs at once. They contln-
ued on the work originally assigned by
their foreman and did not do the work
ordered by Mr.. Hickey. The general
foreman thereupon dismissed them and
stopped their blocks at the block office.
As a result the matter was taken up
