GRAINS UNSETTLED
IN INITIAL TRADE
Business in Wheat Restricted
Corn Says,

CHICAGO, April 2S.-Trading in
grains startd with an unsettled under
tone on the local Board of Trade to-
day.
Business in wheat was restricted
The trade was upset by political agi-
tation and prospects of heavy Cana
dian shipments with the opening Of
lake navigation. The seaboard yes
terday sold. unofficially. close to a
million bushels Of Manitobas. The
United Kingdom bought as far ahead
as August shipments, it was reported.
Gulf business in American wheat was
conducted at a loss by a leading ex-
porter TO clean up old stocks.
Corn was governed by wheat and
sagged at the start. The movement
was liberal and cash business showed
no life. Eastern demand improved
yesterday with sales reported from
here to eastern houses. Traders are
inclined to make quick moves, get
ting in on breaks and selling at the
slightest gains. Until conditions be
come more settled they are unwilling
TO make long commitments.
Better shipping orders and sales
East, with unfavorable crop news
helped oats to start away from other
grains. The market opened I'M
changed to fractionally higher.
Provisions reflected the sharp break
in cables and lower hogs.

DEFY TO MELLON
DEFEATED INCHOT,
POLITICIANS SAY
Leaders Deny ProgreSSivism
Given Setback-Not a
Fair Test
BY LAWRENCE MARTIN

Copyright. 1924, by United Press
WASHINGTON, April 23.-Gifford
Pinchot's defeat in Pennsylvania as
candidate for delegate-at-large to the
Republican national convention will
be construed as a smashing setback
for the sort of progressivism Pinchot
represents. But impartial analysis OF
the matter shows that Pinchot, unfor-
tunately for himself and the things
he stands for, let himself in for
beating III a contest that did not con-
stitute fair test between progressives
and conservatives at all.
Pinchot was beaten because he
dared challenge the power that is rep
resented in Pennsylvania by the name
of Mellon, progressive leaders here
said. Of course the wet and dry issue
enters into this because Pinchot has
assailed Mellon and Melons friends
over prohibition law enforcement. But
the result Of Pinchot's attitude has
been to put upon those who voted
against him yesterday the stigma OF
standing challenges against Law en-
forcement.
All are agreed that Pinchot's stock
as a vice presidential possibility or
as a future national figure has re
ceived a, serious decline.

Testimony Varies Little
testimony or the bankers has been
identical in many respects. For the
greater part it has consisted of iden-
LITIGATION of letters from the Governor
saying that he had several thousand
dollars worth of notes taken from
purchasers of his cattle which he
wanted to discount. Once the paper
was discounted, the notes would be
renewed IN whole or in part in most
instances. In some cases financial
statements to show the Governor was
worth in excess of 81 ,000, 900 accom-
panied the requests for money.
The witnesses during the first two
days were subjected to little cross
examination by the Governors attor-
neys. AS announced in the opening
statement of James w. Noel for the
Governor many of the facts charged
by the Government will be admitted
frankly. The defense, from all indi-
cations, will rely upon the theory that
the theory that the Governor did not
intend to commit fraud.
Often Noel has brought out from a
witness that the original Indebtedness
of the Governor had been reduced sub
stantially or wiped out entirely.
In doing this he apparently has
been laying a foundation for argu-
ment that this proved lack Of fraudu-
lent intent.
