‘THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1998 ‘pace PAGE ELEVEN WHEAT PRICES FALL ON LIVERPOOL BASIS Argentine Wheat Shipments Expected to Increase; Corn Values Drop Chicago, Dec. 20.—()—Deliveries of | 178,000 bushels of wheat here today on December contracts gave some ad- vantage at times today to bears in wheat but the market acted stubborn, Lo prices kept within :.arrow limits. me reason assigned was that cold weather without snow prevailed over a wide area of domestic winter wheat territory. Corn acted heavy through- out the day, although good buying for commission houses was witnessed on the declines in price. Wheat closed unsettled. 1s to “sc . net lower, (Dec. 1151, Mch 11874, May 121% to % to %). \ Corn “sc to 1 to 1%%c down, (Dec. 827. to 83, Mch 867s to 87, May 89% to %) & to 7%). 1 Oats closed 4c to %s off, (Dec. 47%, Mch 47% to %, May 48 to 44), and provisions varying from 12c de- Cline to a rise of 1c. Selling of wheat in Chicago today was apparently based not only on lative weakness of the Liverpool arket and on expected increase of Argentine wheat exports, but also on assertions that talk of improved do- mestic milling demand had been ex- aggerated. Mill purchases of wheat in Chicago were said to total only 100,000 bushels, whereas consu: use of wheat in the United State: al- most 2,000,000 bushels daily. Forecasts of generally fair and cold a down. Corn arrivals in Chicago toda: however, amounted to but 101 cai and country offerings were not large. Primary receipts of corn taker as a whole, were much smaller than cither a week or a year ago. Corn sentiment generally was bear- ish. The cash trading basis was firmer. Oats were somewhat un- settled. Dec. was selling at the same price as May early, but the spread ridened out later. Provisions averaged prdaed easier. PRE-! HOLIDAY Q Q ET PREVAILS IN WHEAT fre-holiday quiet continued to pre vail in wheat today, the market mov- ing lazily within a narrow range. The undertone was easy early but on small dips support was met and the arket entered the last hour un- changed from yesterday. Oats were quiet and easy and other grains were slow and steady through { most of the session. There were no { further deliveries of rye, coarse grains y or flaxseed on Minneapolis December contracts. Flaxseed was quiet and steady. Cash wheat offerings were very light and demand was inclined toward quiet except for good quality spring J awheat at 12.50 protein or below, this tlass being in good demand. Dam- aged quality was slow. : ‘Winter wheat offerings were mea- ger and the basis was unchanged. Durum was in small supply. De- mand was fair for milling quality. Corn was steady with a good de- mand for better grades of yellow, 4 others rather quiet. poor. Demand for milling quality rye was fair and ergoty offerings were slow. Barley offerings were light and de- mand was fair to good except for poor feeding quality which ruled slow. Price range was 50 to 67 cents. Flaxseed ‘was in light supply and ) demand was fair to good for choice, a slow for ordinary to poor. , CHICAGO LIVESTOCK Chicago, Dec. 20.—(7)—(U. 8.

Early gains of 2 to 10 points were cut down, or wiped out, and several issues sold 3 to 10% points below yesterday's final quota- tions. An irregular recovery took place in the early afternoon. Call money renewed at 7 per cent and advanced to 8 when banks called $15,000,000 in loans. Time money held firm but another advance of '4 of 1 per cent was made in bankers’ accept- ances, ‘ Violent fluctuations in some of the high priced specialties featured the early trading. Radio jumped 19 points to 356, broke to 343 and rallicd above 350. Montgomery Ward moved up 4 points to 137%. fell to 131% and rebounded to 125. Wright Acronauti- cal ran up 7 points to 262, tumbled to 250, rebounded to 258 and then fell back again. International Nickel advanced 2% points to 269%, fell to 258 and rebounded to 262 on the an- nouncement of merger negotiations with Mond’s Nickel of Canada. National Tea dropped 10% points below last night's close, and Abitib Power, American Smelting, American Radiator, Allied Chemical, Granby Copper and Curtis sold down 3 to 5 points. In the early afternoon, Victor Talk- operators for the advance and marked 78 to 66 points, presumably in expec- tation of an early announcement of merger terms with the Radio corpora- tion. Johns Manville climbed 6% points, and Spicer manufacturing was marked up 4% to a new hizh at 48. Yellow Truck, North American and American Zinc were marked up 3 to 4 points. ple of extra dividends and an increas in the annual dividend on Magma in the day’s business news to influence the price movement.

Scores Trick Questions He charged the state with asking Potter a number of trick questions which apparently tended to indicate certain things but which were not fol- lowed up with proof. Denying the imputation that the defense had fabricated a story for the jury, Cameron said it would have been better for Potter if he had been ‘sober, Mrs. Potter, he said, was very ex- cited following the shooting and could not be held wholly responsible for the accuracy of her statements at that time. The father of Webb, he said, was under the same strain and might have been similarly inaccurate. Webb Supports Defense ‘The first witness to support the ac- cident theory of the defense, Cameron said, was Mr. Webb, who testified that his son said the shooting was an ac- cident. ‘The defense emphasized the dying declaration of Oliver Webb that the shooting was accidental. The dead man, Cameron said, was the only man who knew if the shooting was an accident and he said repeatedly that it was. Cameron finished at 11:45 a. m. and Louis H. Connolly, also defense coun- sel, took up the argument for the de- fense, He said he was in the case as a friend of the Potter's of long standing. ‘Mrs. Potter Shrewd’ Jurors yesterday heard Mrs. Potter pictured as a woman with a shrewd and active brain who started plan- ning a defense for her husband with- in a fow minutes after the firing of the shot which caused Webb's death. The verbal picture was drawn by State’s Attorney F. E. McCurdy of Burleigh county who presented the opening argument for the state late in the afternoon, The taking of evi+ dence was completed about 4 o'clock and McCurdy took an hour for his address to the jury. Additional argu- monts were to be presented today. Commenting on the contention of the defense that Potter accidentally shot Webb while under the influence of liquor, McCurdy charged that Pot- ter was not drunk at all when the shooting occurred but that he prob- ably got drunk afterward. Acted Immediately Picturing the mental processes of Mrs, Potter as they appeared probable to him, McCurdy said that Webb no sooner had been shot than Mrs. Pot- ter launched plans to save her hus- | band from the consequences of his deed. The first thing she did, he said, was to attempt to hide the gun. The next thing was to take Webb to the hospital which she was careful | to do only in company with her son. , On the way, he said, she probably | hammered into Webb’s mind the idea that the shootin was accidental. The next thing she did. he sald, was to ob- tain the services of a lawyer and place her husband under the sheltering wing of leval counsel so that he would mote no ill-advised statements. The contention of the defense, sup- vorted by the testimony of its wit- nesses, is that the shooting was acci- dental and th-+ Potter was drunk ron it occurred.
