Latest Corn Reports.

Chicago. Dec. 3.-Our latest reports
show there is only one feature to de-
mand for corn in many southern
states this December-a farm price of
around 30 cents. The southern corn
demand is dull, but there will be no
material reduction in corn consump-
ton except where economies are
practised.
In a vast section of the north half
OF Illinois farmers will probably fin
ish husking in another week and
yields are 25 to 35 per cent below
1912.
In a large portion of the territory
that feeds Chicago very little corn is
being marketed and our correspond
ents believe that only a moderate
amount will come forward this win
ter
Average farm price in Illinois on
sales appears to be so to 81 cents and
the leading demand is from south and
southwest AS southern Illinois was
blighted by 1913 heat, it is taking con-
siderable FOR feeding purposes.
Pontiac, Ill, covering Livingston,
Ford, Marshall and part of Mclean
counties: Winter consumption of
corn will exceed that OF last year on
account of scarrity of hay and. stalk
pasture. Looks like late spring
which would mean more feed for
stock"
Northern Illinois is evidently gaz-
ing determinedly at its husking and
murmuring rs cents on the farm. On
account of cheapness as compared
with corn, feeding of oats is heavy.
Contracts for new corn in Illinois
seem to be lightest ever known Corr
raisers show more price confidence
than ever before on a small crop.
Ohio and Indiana will furnish fair
ormal corn movement. A large por-
ton of the Iowa surplus will be want
ed south and west OF its border lines.
We are on the brink of the winter
corn movement but it promises TO be
unusually ineffective in breaking
prices.

SELF DEFENSE IS
CLAIM OF BROWN
New Boston Farmer in Jail at
Aledo Charged With Muir
der Of Chris Gauger.
IN QUARREL OVER POSTS
Club 10 Used When Attempt 10 Made
to Remove Property-Fatal
Blow Struck.
Especial to The Argus.)


Aledo, H., Dec. 2-The Mercer
county grand jury. in session here. to-
day is hearing the facts In the death of
Chris Gauger, the New Boston farm
er, who died from the effects of blow
over the head with a club in the hands
OF William Brown, a neighbor The
fatal quarrel took place on the Brown
farm Monday afternoon. Gauger
died the next morning. Brown sur
rendered to the sheriff. claiming that
he attacked Gauger in self defense.
Coroner Mackey conducted an inquest
here yesterday afternoon. The jury
recommended that Brown be held TO
the grand jury without bond. Brown
is in the county Jail in this city.
According TO Brown. Gauger's young
son came for some fence posts which
were on Browns place. Brown or
dered him to unload the posts which
the lad did afterward going home.
Later he returned, Brown says, ac-
companied by his father. A dispute
over the poles arose and the Gaugers
attacked him, Brown asserts.
Gauger. Brown and Milton Straw
occupy farms which adjoin and which
are owned by a Burlington capitalist
named Edgar. G. T. Edgar is the over
seer of the entire property. Monday
afternoon Gauger's 14-year-old son
went for some fence posts which were
piled directly in the rear of the house
occupied by Milton Straw.
Gauser Accepts Challenge.
He claimed that Edgar had directed
his father to take them. Brown on
the other hand declared that Edgar
had told him not TO allow the fence
posts to be taken away. The lad after
continuing the argument for some
time with Brown went for his father
and when the elder Gauger returned
with the boy the two completed load
ing the wagon. Brown, who had re-
NAMED on the scene is reported to
have announced that if any effort was
made to haul away the fence posts a
fight would result. According to the
stories told here Gauger accepted the
challenge. Who struck the first blow
has not been established, but armed
with a club, Brown knocked Gauger
down. rendering him unconscious.
Brown then helped to carry the insen-
sible man to his home where he lay
until death resulted AT o'clock the
next morning.
Brown was brought here. in custody
Of Constable Bogart of Eliza.
The farm where the tragedy took
place is located about eight miles
north of here on the Bay. Brown has
resided there for about a year. but
the Gaugers have been residents of
this vicinity for a long time.

Chicago, Dec. 3.-Deliveries of
wheat and oats have been accepted
vigorously. Contract oats and wheat
figure 1 TO above the December
price. We are trading in corn regard
less Of absence OF a local supply.
These facts suggest oats are water
logged. that wheat is a safe purchase
and that May corn Will finally sell at
the predicted high points. Kansas old
wheat exhaustion is exploited and in
sect disaster to wheat is outlined as
a result OF the mild weather. Apart
from these influences wheat appears
on a sound consumptive basis. North
ern Illinois points predict a light Win
ter movement CT corn. Big shipping
movement of oats from Chicago on
December contract acceptances is ex-
ercising a firming effect. After these
oats reach eastern and other points
the influence OF their arrival may be
felt in the oats pit The resting or
ders in May corn run 90 to 20. Major
ity believe 20 is the Mason and Dixon
line in May corn and that investors
viii buy below that figure. Liverpool
March wheat is about lie above Chi
cago December wheat. Even-s Of the
past few days indicate that current
levels in all grains and products VIII

be very restricted and be followed by
rallies. Continental news on wnea'

of supplies. The 1913 con
tinental size appears to be unknown.

AT THE ILLINOIS.

Many misconceptions prevail con
Even people who are usually well-in-
formed claim that they have ridden
through the Colorado canyon in d
train, confusing the matchless Grand
canyon of the Colorado river in Arr
iona with the much smaller gorge in
the state of Colorado. Americans who
pride themselves on wide knowledge
of the worlds natural wonders, who
know their Nile. the fjords of Nor
way, the inland sea of Japan, etc,
have been known to ask where is
this canyon of the Colorado? What
is it like?" To such the reproduction
by Lyman II. Howe at the Illinois
theatre last night came as revela-
ton OF the fact that it is, indisputably,
the greatest natural wonder on earth.
Americans are just beginning to
realize it, and this reproduction bids
fair to intensity the realization
thousand fold. 1t is one form of in
tense pleasure to view the canyon
from the brink; it is a totally different
experience to go down to it's very
depths and stand on the edge of the
Colorado river as IL fights its way
through the granite gorge. Both these
phases of the trip are depicted in
Howe's reproduction. The views
show the countless precipices and the
depths of chasm so mighty and so
weird that it seems unearthly. Wheth-
er viewed from above or below 1t is
simply impossible to realize the mag
nitude of the panorama because it
seems too immense for any pre-con-
ceived standards of measurement.
Cliff which seems gigantic when seen
at the bottom because it is so close,
appears like an insignificant detail
when viewed from above. In some
respects the experience of making the
thrilling descent strongly resembles
mountain climbing, with the import
ant exception that here tourists go
down and down and down to reach
their goal, but in order 10 regain the
normal level they must scale cliffs
as steep and forbidding as those of
the highest Alpine peaks.

Mine" was the funniest play ever
