TAKING
 WEAKENS WHEAT Firmness During Early Session
 Is Lost Later VISIBLE SUPPLY IS LESS An Improved Demand for Cash Grain Helps Corn, But the Market Later Weakens-oats and Provi-
 sons Close Weak.
VISIBLE SUPPLY IS LESS

Chicago, January 5-Lberal profit talk ing by local longs caused weakness in the wheat market, final quotations show ing net losses of 7c to 1c. Corn, oats and provisions also closed weak as a result of realizing sales.
 Weakness in the wheat market devel- oped during the final hour. until prices declined more than one cent from the high point of the day. During the early part of the session mild firmness was manifested owing to the cold wave which had sprung up over a large section of the winter wheat belt and to an ad- vance of Ed in Liverpool. The market was also bullishly affected by decrease of 2250,000 bushels in the worlds visible supply for the week. the general impress sion prevailing prior to the publication of the figures that the decrease would be considerably less than that amount. This factor, however, was later used as a bear argument when It became known that all of the decrease in available stocks oc- cured in the European supplies The selling was general in the final hour and the market appeared to have little sup port The close was weak at almost the lowest point, with May at s1.071s and July at sS5sc. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 413,000 bushels
 Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re- ported receipts of 1S1 cars
 An improved demand for the cash grain by shippers caused moderate firmness in the corn market, early In the day, but later a weak tone developed because of free selling by local holders. The break in wheat and an absence of any export demand was the chance of the bear in fuences of late trading. The cold wave also inspired some selling in the final hour.
 The market closed weak, prices A@%c lower compared with the previous close. Final quotations for May were 61B@61Ac and on July 611a@615sc. Local receipts were 475 cars with four of contract grade. Sentiment was trife bullish early in the day. in sympathy with wheat and corn, becoming weak later in the session following the decline in the markets. Cash oats were steady to 1sc higher. The market closed weak with prices off A@ssc to ssc with May at 51asc and July at 46%c. Local receipts were 225 cars.
 Provisions were weak nearly all day owing to selling by western packers and local longs. The selling was chiefly based on the continued liberal receipts of hogs at western packing centers. At the close prices were 21ac to 1714c lowed than the previous close.
 Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat 6 cars corn 211 cars; oats 101 cars; hogs, 43, 900 head.

Philadelphia, January 5.--Dr. Edward R. Snader, prominent physician of this city, and his negro chauffeur, John A. Bailey, lost their lives this afternoon when an automobile in which they were riding plunged over 4O-foot embankment in Fairmount park.

Banker Placed on Trial,

Pittsburg, January 5.-J. F. B. Rinehart, former cashier and vice president of the defunct Farmers and Drovers' bank of Waynesburg, Pa, was placed on trial in the United States district court today. When Rinehart was tried a few weeks ago in the county court of his home town on forgery charge growing out of the bank wrecking, the jury finally disagreed and mistrial resulted. Two indictments were merged in the hearing started today. One charges Rinehart with making 19 false entries and abstraction of funds, and the other with making false reports to the comptroller of the currency. Still an other indictment charges the ex-cashier with 90 false entries, abstraction and mis- application.

Liuht Punishment Imposed.

St. Louis, January 5.-Labels on bot ties which were made an issue in the last gubernatorial campaign in Tennessee caused fined of $4OO and $500 respectively to be imposed on Lee Levi and Adolph Asher, liquor dealers of St. Louis, in the United States district court today. Judge Dyer said he made the punishment light because the only specific case of violation of the law presented to the court was the result of a decoy letter. He said such let ters are justifiable at times but he did not think the punishment should be heavy when the only crime before a court was committed by scheme prepared by gov srnment officials.
