CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. 29.-Lower Liv-
erpool and Argentine cables and a de-
sire to take profits over the approach
ing double holiday brought about
liquidation in all grains, May and July
wheat meeting with the greatest pres
sure. There was fair amount of ex
port bushes worked in wheat and rye,
but it failed to check the selling Corn,
however, held up well under the influ-
ence of foreign buying and the Decem-
Der delivery actually gained ground.
bearish statement in regard to
worlds wheat supplies, issued by a
prominent local trader, caused a mod
crate amount OF liquidation, but the
document was considered as somewhat
theoretical by many students of
worlds conditions. Investigation along
this line by responsible persons has
demonstrated that European countries
are badly in need of food grains. The
main obstacle to their acusion is lack
of funds to finance purchases. Relief
IN this distance is expected to come
through the medium of the United
States congress early in the new year
and such action will be bullish on our
grains.

Postoffice Clerk
Held in Connection
With ChiIds Death
(By Asslcfated Press)

NEW YORK, Dec. ga little white
satin coffin, containing the body of
10-year-old Theresa Mccarthy stood to-
day on the spot where her Christmas
tree had been. With her heart pierced
by a bullet from d 22-calibre pistol,
she was found dead in the Brooklyn
home of her mother, Mrs. Pauline Me
Carthy late Tuesday. Benjamin Prem
derville, a clerk in the Brooklyn post
office, and boarder at the Mccarthy
home who admitted to police that he
owned a pearl handled 22-calibre re-
volver, is held on a charge of homicide.
He told the police he became fright
ened when he saw the girls dead body
and threw away the revolver and two
others he owned of large calibre. Police
say Prendeville has police record.
Police working on the theory that
Theresa found Prenderville's loaded
revolver under a pillow on his bed
after the boarder and Mrs. Mccarthy
had departed for work Tuesday and
killed herself accidentally, are unable
to reconcile the fact that the body was
found on the floor in the dining room,
while Prenderville insists he found the
pistol with one chamber discharged
still lying on his bed when he entered
the house Tuesday afternoon

TRUCE ENDS SIEGE
OF IRISH CONSULATE
REPORTERS BELIEVE

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-An armistice
has been signed in the siege of the
Irish consulate, carried on for two
days between the forces of the Free
State and. the Republic in the belief
of reporters who called today at the
building where the consulate is To-
Gated and found the outer entrance
locked.
Late last night Lindsay Crawford,
newly appointed consul general of the
Irish Free State in New York City was
holding his inner office grimly, with
look of determination and a growth
of beard on his face which bespoke his
vigil beginning Wednesday afternoon
and lasting all Wednesday night and
all day yesterday. In the outer office,
Robert Briscoe, an officer of the Irish
republican army, Mrs. Muriel Mac
Swiney, widow of the former lord
mayor of Cork, and half dozen other
representatives of the republic were
on watch.
Officers Keep Watch
Strolling in and cut of the office
were police officers under command Of
Detective Lieut.. James Egan of the
bomb squad. Both sides had announc-
ed they were there to stay. The po-
licemen had made known to them that
any disturbance would bring swift aC-
ton. Everything seemed prepared fot
another long night of watchful waiting
when the newspaper men left for their
offices to report.
What happened in the interim was
not recorded, but when the unofficial
observers returned they found the door
to the building locked and they could
not see any lights on the tenth floor
where the consulate was located, or
anywhere else. Then it was recalle
that Mr. Crawford had asked the re-
publican Representatives TO test their
claims to the office by recourse to the
courts
