Enlarged Milling Demand Cause of
 Bullish Influence
Fly Associated Press

Chicago, January 5.-Enlarged mill ing demand, together with unfavor- able crop prospects. had bullish in- fluence today on the wheat market. Prices closed firm, isc to Rac net higher, with May st.11% to SLIP, and July sI01A to S1.01ss. Corn finished A c to Jhc down. oats at bc off to a like advance, and provisions un- changed to 7c up.
 Announcement that a Chicago mill had bought the entire stock of choice dark northern spring wheat here had much to do with tue final strength of the wheat market, although the amount of wheat involved in the transaction was relatively small, S4,- 900 bushels. The effect of the pur- chase, however, was enhanced by earlier reports of a, more liberal call for wheat on the part of millers at St. Louis, Kansas City and Minneapolis. In addition, the fact was taken as significant that the Chicago purchase of dark northern was at a big pre- mium, 2sc bushel higher than May delivery on ordinary pit contracts. Bulls put stress, too, on assertions that about 25 per cent of the winter wheat acreage was very low con dition, and that weather maps of the last three days indicated no appre- ciable moisture relief in the worst of the dry area southwest. Never theless, buyers were cautious and even scattered selling found the mar ket sometimes without support.
 Corn and oats averaged lower as a result seemingly of pressure from cash houses hedging against pur- chases of corn to arrive.
 Provisions were firmer in sympathy with hog values and owing to small ness of the December increase of western stocks of meats, the smallest in more than 14 years.

HARDING FAVORS
 SEATING NEWbERRy
Not Yet Convinced He Should Exert Executive Pres
 sure, However
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau, The Age Herald.
 500 Davidson Building

Washington, January b.-(Speclal.) ) After consulting with Senator James
 E. Watson and other leaders of the reactionary wing of the republican party in the Senate, word comes from
 the White House that the President is in favor of sustaining Truman H. Newberry in his claim to a seat Tn
 the Senate of the United states.
 Hastily comes the word, however,
 that the President, although or the above opinion, is not yet, convinced
 that he should exert executive pres sure in weaning from their independ- ence certain republican senators who think that Newberry should be thrown into the discards.
 in that connection, Senator Willis of Ohio, who succeeded to the seat surrendered by the President when he entered the White House, is now
 strongly inclined to vote against
 Newberry.
 ''The fact that Newberry has not
 defended himself either before jury
 or committee of the Senate has not very favorably appealed to me-" said
 Willis. q have not definitely made
 up my mind as to how I will vote.
 But were charges filed against me, I would demand an opportunity to
 speak in my own behalf
 It is said that so many other re-
 publican senators feel as Willis feels
 that Newberry will make a speech.
 The "other republican senators" in-
 volved want to vote for Newberry
 but they want some excuse. it is in dicated. They cannot very well re-
 turn home and declare that they
 voted to seat Newberry even when
 Newberry refrained from defending
 himself, it is pointed out. But it will
 be a sad day for Newoerry if he does attempt to make speech.
 The only defense for Newberry which republican senators make is that he was unaware of the scandal which his friends were pulling off in his behalf If Newberry attempts to make that defense for himself. in his own language, and on the floor of the Senate, the Interruptions will be countless. And Newberry is not gifted in the art of debate especially where subtletry is essential It is the intention of democrats to ask him to retire from the race because of the prof1igacy with which Newberryss friends were spending money, which. the lieutenant governor is said to have charged, twill result in a scan dal from which Michigan will not re- cover in 25 years" It Is also the in tention of democrats to ask Newberry if former Governor osborn of Mich ligan, a republican. did not write him that if he pretended ignorance Of the procedure of his friends he would be ] branded both an ass and liar. There will be countless other ques- tions. For If Newberry does appear on the floor, it will be the first time he will have ever subjected himself to any variety of cross examination.

sleeves are not exaggerated as TO
length or width, they are entirely
missing in which rows of bracelets
cover the arms.
Gloves are not being worn at all
Few siipon sweaters are seen. Most
of the hats worn at the races are
wide and dropping as they are not
carrying parasols as generally as
formerly.
One of the prettiest bathing suits
seen at Long Beach last Sunday was
a knitted affair of violet and taupe.
The bodice portion of the suit was
OF plain taupe and the three TERED
skirt was made of violet, with each
ter scalloped in the taupe. High
violet bathing shoes completed the
effect and there were no stockings.
A Nile green suDshade added a
pretty touch of color to this attrac-

With Summer the black gowns
are diminishing in number. Whether
Paris continues to cling to them or
not, America is done with them for

An interesting usage of fur was
noted on a dancing gown at a popu-

The gown was one of those very
plain long waist-lned effects, made
of mauve silk crepe. The bodice
was entirely sleeveless and had a
round, rather high neck; the skirt
was much fuller than one sees uf
late and had a border about a foot
wide of platinum fox fur. The
weight of the fur caused the skirt
to flare out gracefully when the
wearer was dancing.
Few hair bandeaux or ornaments
of any kind are noticed at evening
functions lately.
French vamped bathing shoes
with the sandle cross-strapped eff
fects are shown in many new colors
such as periwinkle. hellotrope and
vivid orange.
