wheat PRICES
GO DOWNWARD
Other Grains Follow Lead
ing Cereal Down.

Blu United Press
CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-Wheat was
the main attraction in initial deal
ings on the Board Of Trade today.
The leading cereal was weak and
lower Coarse grains made incon-
sequential changes.
Without the support of cash buy
ers wheat sagged. Disappointed
longs and shorts were best sellers.
The latter looked for the strong cash
situation to assert itself in later
trading. Liverpool made fractional
upturns.
Sentiment in corn was inclined to
be bearish. Trade at the opening
presaged little activity during to-
days session. Oats started UNI

Provisions dropped on a continuation
Of cash selling.

veins, and some iron pyrites. 1t also
is found in some sands and in beds
of gravel deposited by rivers.
There are two principal methods
of mining gold: % placer" mining
foralluvial deposits, and (2) lode"
or quartz" mining, where the gold
is in solid rock. Placer mining was
known in ancient times. Gold wash
ing as early as 1000 b. c. is shown
i'm pictorial rock carvings in Egypt.
The legend Of the Golden Fleece may
have been suggested by the use of
fieeces to eaten gold in bitches and In
fumes. In placer mining nature has
already done the greater part Of the
work. In the process of wearing
down the eternal hills" by erosion,
gold. being one of the heaviest ma
terials Q,927 times as heavy as
water), naturally goes to the bottom
Of streams. There it is deposited In
the form of scales or nuggets, for
the most part in the same shape it
was originally held in the rock. The
size of the particles varies from fine
powder gold DUST to the great
Australian welcome Stranger"
nugget, Weighing $500 ounces-the
weight OF a medium sized man. The
separation of gold from the gravel
and sand is accomplished on the
same principle that has been in
operation through the agencies Of
nature. Masses of the gold-bearing
gravel are stirred up with water and
the heavy gold sinks to the bottom.
This is done on a small scale in a
prospector's pan, and on a large
scale in sluices. In hydraulic min
ing great beds of gravel are washed
out by the streams of water con-
Quoted through pipes like a fire hose.
These jets are so powerful that men
and animals have been killed by
them at a distance Of 200 feet from
the nozzle. Gold dredging is also
carried on by means of flat bottomed
boats with devices to dig gravel
from the bottom of the stream or
the bottom Of the sea when the
water is shallow. OF course, not all
gravel and sands contain gold.
Mercury, which readily unites with
gold, is put into the gold bearing
gravel, thus catching fine particles
of gold which might otherwise
escape. The resulting amalgam is
separated by retorting-that is the
mercury is vaporized by heat and
the gold is left free to be melted into
bullion.

~ LTHOUGH gold is widely dis
Al tributed over the earth, it
occurs mostly in such small
quantities that it can not be profit
ably extracted. 1t is even found in
minute quantities in sea water. De-
spite the fact that gold has been
mined from remote antiquity, the
amounts recovered have been so
small and have required such ex-
penditure of time and labor that it
remained the most precious of
metals until the discovery of a few
even rarer metals in recent times.
The total world production of gold;
from the discovery Of America to
1916, is estimated at about 1914 bill
lions of dollars, weighing about 90
500 tons-enough to make a circular
tower of gold 20 feet in diameter and
1873 feet high.
Most of the gold mined in the
Spanish Peninsula, Greece, Asia
Minor, India, and the Ural Noun
tains of Russia. After the discovery
Of the New World great supplies
were obtained from Central America,
but the total production from that
time to the discovery of the Cali
fornia gold fields was less than the
average annual production today.
An enormous jump in production re-
suited from the discovery of the
California deposits QS4S) and other
great fields, the most important of
which are, with dates of discovery:
Australia QS5D; British Columbia
1883; Witwdterstrand, South Africa
1855; Alaska QS9O.
The great gold producing region
today is the Witwatersrand district
of South Africa. Johannesburg is
the largest gold-mining center with
an output which some years has ex.
ceeded $3.50, 100000. The United
States, including Alaska, ranks next
to South Africa in production, with
California, first; Colorado, second
and Alaska, third. Until the World
War, Russia produced twice as much
gold as all South America. The My
sore mines in India have been big
producers and have shafts more
than 1000 feet deep. The deepest
gold mine in the world is the MORO
Velho. Brazil, 6,126 feet deep.
Gold Is found both native-that is,
uncombined with other minerals
and in combination with various
other elements. Native gold occurs
in rocks. in many cases in quartz

surance Company was filed Tuesday

cuted a mortgage on the property
for SIS, 900, giving the insurance pol
icy as security.
On April II, fire damaged the prop
erty to the extent of $4,000. 1t was
then owned by Holmes, but Stephen

Hog prices at the Indianapolis
Livestock Exchange followed the
trend Of competitive markets and
ruled 10000 lower today. The run
of hogs estimated at 5000 and 126
hold-overs from the previous session,
was responsible for the slump.
Light weight material was again
the most desirable and consequent
ly commanded a premium. This
class of hogs sold at $11.75 and in
some cases choice lights commanded
price of $11.S5. The bulk of the
run moved scaleward at prices av-
eraging $1165.

In the Sugar Market
Nv Thomson g. McKinnon

BY Thomson & MckinnOn
NEW YORK. Oct. 14.-No matter how
bearish an economic condition. there is al
ways q turning point. a sort of irreducible
minimum. This, morning the Journal of
Commerce publishes some Cuban news that
should set trade thinking. Planters are
preparing for extreme measures to reduce
next seasons sugar supply. and they are
certainly justified. as no human should be
expected TO produce an important world
necessity al. a loss. This may mark the
actual turning point in the market. and
feel reasonably certain that any further
declines will be moderate temporary.

Judge Sparks rules the courtroom

Opposes Death

81 have conscientious objections to
capital punishment" said Harper in
reply to a question.
Stephenson and Gentry assumed
a serious look at this juncture,
but Klinch paid no attention,
busily reading an account of Tues
days trial in a Chicago news
paper.
Kane questioned Fred Johnson an.
other farmer, at length.
Sheriff Involved
Has the sheriff talked to you
about this case-Sheriff Gooding, /
mean?"
NO" Johnson answered.
Are you conscientiorsly opposed
to capital punishment" Kane asked
him.
"Yessiree. / don't believe in TAX
ing a mans life" Johnson replied.
Aside from that Harper said he
believed in correct and strict en-
forcement of the criminal laws. He
also stated he believed in the en-
forcement of law against all classes
Of offenders, regardless Of political
or social prominence. Kane then
passed on to w. o. Inman. who also
said he was opposed to capital pun
ishment.
Kane also became involved in a
discussion with Inman on the rea-
sonable doubt theories. and Judge
Sparks again took a hand when the
defense objected to Kane's defini-
ton of reasonable doubt.
Judge Rules
THE State does not hope to prove
a man guilty beyond all possible
doubt. just beyond ali reasonable
doubt" ruled the judge.
Inman also said he was acquainted

THAT'S strange" said Kane,
"There are a lot of good takers

Kane and the talesman became
engaged in a scrap on the definition
of reasonable doubt. Pfotenhauer
said he would require the State to
prove the defendant guilty beyond
all doubt, reasonable or unreason-
able. Kane asked the Judge to ex.
cuse him for cause, which was re.
fused.

Are you opposed conscientiously

declared Pfotenhauer, firmly. "If 1t

Stephenson seized pencil and
made some notes, after which Inc

of his attorneys, who shortly after
ward left the courtroom for few
minutes. Kane then used a pre-
emptOry challenge to set PfOten-
hauer off the jury.
