Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, Dec. 20.-Wheat: Opening
prices were about steady and for a few
moments only ruled easy, an advance
of about l lac from the low point of
the morning taking place, most of
which was maintained at the close. A
large part of today's advance came
from. covering by the early sellers and
also from a report circulated regard
ing over-estimation of the Canadian
crop. In u opinion, the fact is that
sentiment of late has changed and
that therefore, advances such as that
of today are based more upon a grow
ing belief that values are not ex-
cessiye, and also that short sellers
have decidedly less confidence in their
opinion and position. We think, how
ever, from a technical standpoint, that
today's advance, which shows an up
turn of 3 lac per bushel from the low
point. is sufficient temporarily at least

OF the strength undoubtedly coming

ABOUTLATEMER

1t is more than likely that Latemer,
the colored man who shot and killed
Robert Williams on Front street some
months ago, has been talking too much
or has gotten into some trouble out in
Montana.
al telegram was received here his
morning asking if Latemer had been
exonerated from all blame in killing a
mar in Fargo. and the answer was
sent back to the effect that he had.
1t will be remembered that Williams
.went after Laterner with q gun and
that after a struggle the latter shot the
other man with williams. weapon.
Iatemer was a great fellow to talk
and 1T is supposed here that he was
bragging about having killed a man in
Fargo and WAS picked up on that acc
count.

Theory Is
Entirely DispeIIed

The belief by Mrs, r.. ID. Cole that
her child, Harry Parker, -four years
of age, was kidnapped and not drowned,
last Saturday, must be dispelled by the
fact of the receipt of a telegram by
Chief of Police O'Laughlin today from
the chief of police at Weyburn, Sask.
The message read as follows:
"Weyburn, Sask,, Dec. 10, 1912: AL
bert Parker has been employed here at
the Elite theatre steady since Dec, Q"
That the little Parker child had been
kidnapped. instead of being drowned in
the Rec river, has never been very.

days, won a general verdict from the
jury late last night at IL o'clock for
the amount of $3.50. However there
were eight other findings which the

he would ask for a judgment notwith-
standing the verdict. McEnroe & Wood
were counsel for the defendant.
