ALI Grain Prices
Decline to New
Lows for Season
Little Demand in Sight for
Wheat and Corn Until
Large Visible Supply Is
Taken Care OF, Is View

CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-All deliveries of
wheat, corn, oats and rye swept down
ward to-day to new low price records
for 1921. Large visible supply tota Is
proved to be neavy handicap or val
ues. Wheat closed weak and 3ia &c
net lower, with December at Sl.11l2d IA
$1.11A and May at S11e@$1.l614.
Corn lost q q a and oats IA a nc.
In provisions the outcome was un-
changed TO 15c down.
General liquidation took place in the
wheat trade, and at the finish the mar
ket was at the bottom level of the day.
sSA d9Ac off, compared with yester-
days top figures. Bears put special
stress on the big stocks at Kansas City
and on the possibility Of shipments be
ing made from there to Chicago. Be
sides losdings were said to have in
creased in the Northwest, and a larger
movement Of the spring crop within q
few days was predicted. Meanwhile,
despite the severity with which prices
were breaking, no European demand Of
Importance developed, except for such
wheat as could be obtained advan-
tageously from Canada. Rallies took
place at times as result of covering
by shorts. but no real strength was ap-
parent, and the upturns failed to last.
Declines in the price of corn and
oats were largely due to the action of
wheat. The descent of corn was some
what checked by improvement of ship
ping and industrial call
Provisions weakened in sympathy
with grain, notwith standing an upturn
in the value of hogs.

price of 10 cents had been named The

sheetings, sheets and pillow cases also

that have been taken 'at value since

Wonen's Wear Prices Cut
Reductions Made on Spring
WoOIens and y orsteds

Prices lower than those quoted on
similar goods for this falls use We're
made yesterday BY two of the larges.
producers of women's wear woolens
and worsteds, for spring. 1922. The
spring lines of the Botany Worsted
Mills were thrown open for sale at the
new prices, which. it is said, were made
TO stir trading in such goods from the
lethargy that has prevailed for some
time. The Botany line is more extern
siYe in style and color range than
usual. Crepes and broadcloths form
large part of the new spring iine. It
is estimated that prices may be ad
vanced later in the season.
Reductions of from ) to l2ia per
cent from fall prices prevail in the
spring dress goods line OF the Pacific
Mills. thrown open for sale yesterday
by Lawrence 4 Co. The line com
prises gabardines. tricotine. Poiret
twils, satin Prunellss, etc. The new
prices, according to an official OF the
company. are in line with the prevail
ing trend in tho trade.

Topeka Attorney Has No Connection
With Nonpartisan League.

Col. John S. Dean of Topeka isn't
an attorney for the Nonpartisan
league, never has been and doesn't ex-
pect to be. That was the emphatic
statement by the Topeka lawyer dur

Recently stories were published to the
effect that the army officer and for
mer president of the Republican
lAeague had been retained as an attor-
ney for J. Ralph Burton.
II am not an attorney for the Nom
partisan league, never have been and
never will be-" declared Colonel Dean.
1.-The report is absolutely without
foundation. I might defend a man
charged with murder, but 1 would
never defend the Nonpartisan league.
The fact that I came to the state
house with Burton has no significance.
made the trip to the attorney gen.
erals office at Burton's request, but
do not represent him or the League in
any capacity"
