ened lower at practically bottom prices
for the day. News kept coming more
bullish. Reports of heavy export sales
from both coasts and liberal sales
abroad, exports of flour from Canada
and Minneapolis were reported. Brad
streets reported increase of less than
100000 as compared with over H.
100000 a year ago. While closing
prices are only about u higher the
market showed a good recovery from
the lowest level Of the day.
Corn-altho the cash situation was
not encouraging cash demand here be-
ing moderate and the reports of Ar
gentine corn selling in the east at low
er figures than it can be furnished in
Chicago, the future market received
good support and the closing prices are
from q to cent higher. Selling pres
sure was light, owing to uneasiness
over the possibility of severe storms IN
the corn belt, SO that local bulls had
little difficulty in advancing prices.
Oats-An oversold condition over
night brought a strong opening in oats:
Reports of heavy cash business and
the drying up Of Canadian offers were
sufficient to sustain the advance thru
out the session. and closing prices are
about a cent higher on the active fu-
lures.

perienced. There was liberal ouylns

CASE STILL ON

Bloomfield, Dec. 22.-The district
court of Davis county is still occupied
with the Miller VS.. Cronk case, and
has been for nine days, and the end
is not yet. The evidence was all at
noon Saturday. The jury was dis
missed at noon until this afternoon,
when they will reconvene to- COM
merce the fourth week of court. The
attorneys for the plaintiffs started i'm
peachment proceedings against the de-
PENDANT, which were promptly met by
reinstatement witnesses. The attor-
neys for the plaintiffs scored one on
the defense by referring to similar
case where there were similar proceed
ings against this same defendant, and
the attorneys for the defense in this
case were conducting the proceedings
in the former case, which caused
quite a laugh in, the court room, at the
expense of the defendants attorneys.
The pleadings in this case will heard
this week.
