MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago. Dec. 5.-Wheat: Our
wheat market opened steady at about
last nights close, but turned weak
shortly, and so ruled throughout the
session influenced largely by the ex-
treme weakness in northwestern mar
kets and the decline in corn. General
liquidation was a feature with local
professionals pressing short sales. The
news from the northwest was OF an
extremely bearish character, free re-
ceipts being predicted for some time to
come, and the country movement nm
tied only by the car capacity. The
Winnipeg market did not show as
great weakness as other markets and
sales yesterday and today for export
were said to have been liberal.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, Dec. 5.--Corn specialists
were mixed in their opinions last
night. One OF the leading bears who
WAS in the pit all day said that while
several OF the bulls had sold out their
corn, there is still fair sized short
interest among local professionals and
with continued good weather they look
for lower range of values. Those
who are bullish argued that a
further decline in prices is likely
to check sales by the country and
bring in export business. Bids yes
terday for immediate shipment were
Nc out Of line. 1t was noticeable that
commission houses had received Or
ders to buy at 631S and that corn dis
appeared as rapidly as it did last week
at 6435c. Inter Ocean.

Regarding the arrest of the alleged

this is regarded as untrue by the

States Attorney Fowler has the fol-

suspect in Montana: Il know nothing
except what / have read in the paper.
From that 1t is apparent he knows
nothing about the territory surround

implicated in the train holdup. Unless
some new facts develop, warranting
action, nothing will be done in the
case"

returned from Pekin, ILL.,, with Frank
Allen, the alleged confessed train ban
dit, who on wednesday. Nov. %, walk

place that he was the much wanted

short conversations he notified the
sheriff Of this city, that he was posi-
tive that Allen was the man wanted.

FALL FROM
BARN LOFT
PATTERSON SLIPPED FROM
LADDER AND HIS SKULL FRAC.
TURED-DIED FROM INJURIES
SOON AFTER REACHING THE
HOSPITAL.

A fatal accident occurred last
evening about $3.50 o'clock on the
Candelarit fruit farm located just
south of the cemetery, when the
manager, Mr.. A. Patterson fell from
the barn loft and sustained injuries
which later resulted in his death.
From telephone information it ap-
pears that Mr.. Patterson was feed
ing the horses when he slipped on
the ladder and fell to the floor be-
low. He struck squarely on his
head with such force that his skull
was badly fractured. He was quick
ly rushed to the hospital where DR.,
Morse did everything possible for
the injured man. 1t was soon evi-
dent, however, that little that could
be accomplished other than easing
the patient who died at 1870 this
morning.
Mr.. Patterson was we'll known
and respected citizen. He came to
this part of the country more than
10 years ago and was a very success
full farmer. He leaves a wife and
two sons to whom the tragedy CON-
ing so suddenly, is a terrific sh ock.
The funeral will be held from the
house at o'clock this aftern Don,
in City View cemetery.
