NEWLOW RECORD
Weakness of Market Due
to Prospects of Big
Crop Yield

CHICAGO, Aug. 9.--Wheat, corn
and oats all established new low
record prices for the season today.
Weakness appeared to be due pri-
marily to the big yield OF corn fore
cast I'm the government crop report.
The wheat market closed unsettled,

tember Sl.05 to is and December
Sl.05 Ia to 3-Sc. Corn finished
Ia advance as to 3-4c down,
oats off 3-S to SIS advance 3-4c. In
provisions, the outcome was un-
changed to &c higher,
Although exporters took 500, 900
bushels of wheat here and 600,0 to
100000 bushels at the seaboard,
Iliquidating sales on the part OF hold
ers proved to be much more than
an offset. Speculative demand was
OF such restricted character as to be
OF but slight importance in support
ing values, Tho government crop
report was regarded as mildly bull
ish regarding wheat, but this cir
cumstdnce was soon lost sight OF.
and attention focused instead in
great increase of corn looked for as
compared with a month ago,
Gossip that happenings at the con-
leItuCe III LOuuOn might adversely
affect foreign exchange rates had
some influence In depressing the
wheat market, and so, too. did lower
quotations at Liverpool Another
disturbing factor was much selling

| ing of May for a leading elevator in
terest. Besides, it was said shippers
here were selling wheat at loss,
getting 1-2c over September c. 1. (.

court here is proving of advan-
tage to the presiding magistrate,

A. f. O'Neil. what do you
think of the decision" is not an
unusual question put by O'Neil
after disposing Of case, partic-
ulariy II the defendant Is a girl
or woman. He directs his inquiry
to the women present In the
court room.
He claims he frequently re-
ceives excellent advice from these
women spectators and investiga.
tors, who> represent the leading
social and civic organizations Of
the city.
In a recent case the court i'm
posed a fine Of $50 on a woman
for shoplifting and was about to
add thirty days In jail. II was
the defendants first offense, and
when he put his customary ques.
ton to two club women In the
