CHICAGO GRAINS

CHICAGO, Sept. rs. UP)-Persis-
that pressure of liquidation sales
forced wheat prices down two cents
or more a bushel on the Chicago
board of trade today.
At the close wheat was off 1 u to
1B, Sept. $1.17h, corn was off "a
to 72&, Sept. $1.16%, oats were off
u to y, Sept. AZ cents, rye was off
1B to up Ia, Sept. 87A cents.
Weakness at Winnipeg and less
pessimistic crop news from Aus
tralia shook the confidence of local
longs.
Selling pressure was brisk in the
first half of the session. Modern
Miller's report of further good prog
ress in the seeding Of winter wheat
in the main producing area and the
fact no settlement has been reached
in the strike at Minneapolis restrict
ed buying.
Winnipeg wheat prices opened
lower in sympathy with relative
weakness at Liverpool, rallied later
as exporters took in hedges and
selling off for net losses of better
than a cent a bushel before the
close.
Liverpool closed unchanged to II
pence higher, being adversely af-
fected by larger Australian ship
ments and reports that the crop in
that country was not in urgent need
of moisture.
September corn prices again ruled
firm as shorts evened up their open
commitments. Deferred deliveries
reacted after a higher start on Ii
quidation caused by favorable wealth
er conditions Oats was easier and
rye was weak.

suit contained a low doubleton--

applaud his sense of humor, when
the joke was so tough on him.

vulnerable. I was doubled, and then,
alas. my partner informed me he had
not held his hand before. i went
down tricks. What are the chances
Of holding two such hands in one
duplicate?"
For the benefit of players who are
unfamiliar with duplicate, I will add
that the same pair never are allowed
to play the same hand twice. Cap
tain Wolfe was only joking when he
bid 7-No Trumps, expecting other
players to at once notice that an in
correct board had been placed before
them. However, the joke could not
be withdrawn. The two hands are
given below.
