a statement which the court admitted
in the trial of John H. ,Wishek yester'

quoted Wishek as stating that neither
he nor his banks bought of the first
issue. Wishek did not. but his banks
invested $25,250 in the first loan;
$40, 300 in the second, including a per-
sonal purchase of $1,000 made by
Wishek, and $500 of he third in

New York, July lS.-After careful

Extreme height and slenderness is
the effect desired-and it likewise pro-

1t has been found that the severe

CHICAGO GRAIN.

Chicago, Dec. 10.-Unfavorable weather put the bears in corn at a general disadvantage today. Never theless prices closed unsettled 1-8c off to 1-2c net higher with January 191 3-S to 131 1-2 and May 130. Oats fin ished quarter cent down to like ad- vance. In provision there were gains of 10 to o5c..
 Covering on the part of shorts brought about material advance in values, for offerings were scarce until bidders had competed with a good deal of spirit. After the bulge, how ever, realizing by holders set in. Re- lative weakness followed and at last nearly all gains had been wiped out. Continued. demand from the sea board together with good domestic inquiry gave steadiness to oats. Sell ing pressure was mainly on distant futures.
 Food administration measures to stabilize hog quotations tended to strenghthen provisions. Besides ship ments of meats and lard remained far in excess of the totals a year ago.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON,

New Orleans, Dec. 10.-lt was a waiting market today in cotton with interest wholly centered in tomorrow's crop estimate from the department of agriculture. Even the serious labor troubles reported in Lancashire fail ed to attract attention. Fluctuations were narrow and sluggish. In the ear ly trading, the market at it's best was 10 to 13 points over yesterdays close and at it's lowest 17 to 26 points under In the afternoon price changes were even narrower; the close showed net losses of II to 13 points. 5.
 General expectations regarding to- morrow's figures range around Ill., 500,OC0 to 11,600,W0 bales. According to floor comment it will require re- port higher than 11,500,000 to bring about lower prices tomorrow and fig ures under that mark to put values up Spot cotton quiet and unchanged.
