LEAVENWORTH, Kan, Aug. 24.-- Joseph Campbell, of Alaska a con vict serving life term at the peni tentiary for killing Gus Nelson to secure possession of a gold mine, es- capped from the Federal prison some time yesterday.

The trial took seven days and Camp bell was convicted after the jury had deliberated for AS hours. The trial took place before Judge Fuller and after the verdict was returned an appeal was taken, but the judgment and sentence of the lower court was confirmed Campbell was charged with having shot Nelson to secure possession of a gold mine in which both men were interested

| Hog traders are mystified at the poll
icy local packers are pursuing. They
are permitting outsiders to take most

but 20 cents per hundred on the bulk.
Kingan has been on the local market
this week and everybody realizes that
when yields are considered hogs selling
at $1l.70@11.s0 are the cheapest.
The big packers probably realize II
they attempted competition on top
hogs s12 market would be promptly
established. Resistance to the advance
ing trend of the bog market is appar-
entity useless. A sfa trade on the bulk
of the crop at an early date Is inevita-
BILE.
Eleven markets received $4,000 hogs

Thursday. $4,000 less than year ago

this week $4,000. or $1,000 more than

The German note on submarine war
fare, which played havoc with grain

shattered the hog market in manner

Corn Shows Strength as Result OF
Active Seaboard Demand-Oats Ad-

Small ScaIe--Support From Packers
Carries Provisions Up Grade.

Chicago Feb. 2-After cautious
start the wheat market today, in
huenced by limited purcha sing, scored
a moderate advance. Uncertainty at
the outset resulted from the critical
aspect of the relations between the
United States and Germany. Some Of
venturesome traders took to the bull
side on the ground that the absence
any rupture as yet gave hope that
the break might be averted. Extreme
cold tended also to lift prices. Open
ing quotations, which ranged from
Ia cents decline to 9 cents advance,
with May at 1.6211.63 and July at
14211.431e, were followed by slight
downturns in some cases and then
hardening of values all around.
The market closed unsettled at 1.60A
0l.61 for May and 1.431s @1.4Sss for
July, compared with yesterdays finish.
Corn.
Active seaboard demand put strength
into corn. After opening y off to 4
cent up. prices made substantial gen.
eral gains.
In later dealings profits taking on
the part of early buyers caused the
market to sag. The close was nervous
at y decline to Is advance.
Oats.
Oats rose with corn. Buying, tho
was light.
Provisions.

visions up grade. Offerings were

Chicago, Feb. 2-Wheat - Severe
temperatures prevailing over the Win
ter wheat belt caused the deferred de-
liveries to rally sharply and hold thru
out the morning at fair premium
over last nights close. The May de-
livery was disposed to drag, and later
when corn was weak, wheat broke
lower than last nights close. Traders
We're disposed to keep close to shore,
pending the adjustm ent Of present po-
litical complications.
Corn-The undertone in corn was
firm until late in the day. when wheat
eased off. There was renewed sea-
board inquiry for cash corn. Spring
field. ILL.,, reported 100000 bushels sold
over night, on the best basis on the
crop. Cold weather is not only in
creasing the feeding Of corn, but is re-
tarding the movement.
Oats Lack of outside interest
caused a dull oats market, but they
gradually followed the decline in other
grains. The demand in the spot mar
ker was good, No. white oats holding
their basis with the May and standard
selling " cent over.
