Forecasts pointed to above-normal temperatures as the rule in the corn belt next week, and relatively little snow or rain. Under such circum- stances, feed use of corf promised no immediate enlargement, and shipping call here gave scant signs of increase. Primary receipts were 851,000 bushels, compared with 698,000 a week back! and 1,070,000 on the corresponding day of 1930. Arrivals in Chicago to-) taled 129 cars, against 122-a week ago and 272 at this time last year. Wheat was bearishly affected by}Colum, G. & El. The ;Colum.

There was fair demand for good durum and prices were steady. | Cash corn demand was quiet to fair. Oats demand was fair to good. Rye demand was fair to good.

The market was distinctly heavy, with numerous losses of a point or | two in prominent issues, and wider declines in some of the more mer- | curial shares. Short covering gave | the list a little boost in the last few minutes. The closing price level, as ; measured by the averages, was in the main only a point or two above the levels reached in the New Year's rally of Jan. 2. | Further declines in the bond mar- | ket weighed heavily on shares, and | |the violent fluctuations in a few of | 4 | the volatile issues yesterday was re- garded in some quarters as indicating | an impaired technical position. | Nevertheless, offerings were not | heavy, and ee i ae Pivotal issues | Bave ground gru vy. | Auburn and Worthington continued 4% |to fluctuate erratically. The former | dropped nearly 6, then regained al- most half its loss. Worthington Groped nearly 4, then reduced its loss to less than a point. Chemicals | were rather heavy. Dupont, Colum- | bian Carbon, U. 8. Industrial Alcohol, | and Allied Chemical finished 2 to 3 | points lower. Other shares off about 2 points included Westinghouse, Atchison, Eastman, Johns Manville, | and Underwood Elliott. Shares los- | ing about a point included U. S. Steel. American Can, American Power and Light, Bethlehem, Stone and Web- ster, Radio, and Union Pacific. North American, General Electric, and Gen- ‘eral Motors were off only fractional- ly, and American Telephone closed {about steady. General Railway Sig- ‘nal was a firm spot up 2. Sales for | the two-hour session were about 800,- 000 shares. The week-end mercantile reviews reported little change in trade con- iditions. Wholesale apparel markets {are experiencing fair inquiry for | j But some other lines are less | satisfactory. The motor trade has | {been distinctly encouraged by the re- | sults of the Chicago show. | "The week has brought forth a large | assortment of earnings statements, | |which were in the main about as ex- | pected, and while serving to hold the | market in check, have failed to move ; lit much in either direction. Reports |for industrials so far indicate an ag- | \gregate decline in industrial earnings ; of about 40 per cent from the high j records of ool ees sharper losses in jthe last quarter alone. _ i Commodities have again eased off | his week, The annalist weekly index | of commodity price dropped a point for the second successive week, after several weeks of comparativ> sta- | bility. ! 0 Duluth, Jan.

Shoved Into Cell | The two officers were shoved into the cell block from which Bannon had been taken, and a plank used in battering down the bars was placed against the broken steel door. Thompson and Deputy Hallan Pushed the door partly open, but it was shoved shut again, and the plank Placed against it more securely by the men left to guard the officials, After they were satisfied the guards had left, the sheriff and deputy Pushed the door open again. Sheriff Thompson said he heard i {taken from the cell, that headed for the bridge.” {| The two officers immediately went | to the bridge after freeing themselves, | and found the body of Bannon hang- ing from a railing. Satisfied that Bannon was dead, Thompson came to Watford City and notified State's Attorney J. S. Taylor and Coroner Larson, and then re- take James Bannon, father of the youth, and Fred Maike, another pris- oner in the jail, to Williston for safe- keeping. Charles and his father were charged with murder for the killing of the Havens. The father, who was in the jail at the time the mob ar- rived, was not molested. Thompson then went with the cor- removing Bannon’s body. He then returned to Schafer and removed the two remaining prisoners to Williston. A sledge hammer, with a home made handle, was found near the jail by the sheriff, but it was not identi- fied as to ownership. Awakened At 12:30 Deputy Sheriff Hallan testified he was awakened at 12:30 a.m. by a knocking on the door of the sheriff's office, where he sleeps. He left his bed and went to the front window from where he saw several masked men in front of the door. Hallan asked them what they wanted and they demanded that he open the door. The deputy refused, he said, and the men replied that if he did not allow them to enter they would break into the jail. After some open, breaking the lock from the door jamb. A crowd of masked men filled the room immediately and demanded the keys from Hallan. They asked that he open the safe where the keys was kept but he refused.

A truck also was backed up to a window on ‘o. | the west side of the building and a number of men attempted to break the steel bars on the window with a sledge hammer. Someone then yelled, “there it a goes,” and members of the mob, in- °f | cluding Hallan’s guard, hurried into .| the sheriff's office. As soon as he was left unguarded, the deputy left the automobile in which he had been into the office. Shortly after he got inside, the mob forced open the grated door leading into the cell room, and a short time later came out with Charles Bannon. ‘Bring The Long Rope’ Someone said, “bring the long rope,” Hallan testified, and the rope was brought in, the noose being Placed around Bannon’s neck. Bannon cried, “for God's sake save my father,” the deputy testified, as the rope was adjusted around his neck. ‘Then the mob half carried and half led Bannon from the cffice, as another of the mob ordered that a truck be brought. Hallan said he then was shoved in- to the cell room where Lanuun and Maike were held, and the docr locked. A little later the door was opeued and Sheriff Thompson brought la. The plank was placed against the door. ‘The deputy told how he ara the sheriff shoved the door partiy open, but that the door was closed by one of the mob and the plank rzplaced against it. The crowd left about five minutes later, and the sheriff and deputy forced the door open and wetit into the sheriff's office. In answer to a question by Attor- ney General Morris, Hallan stated that as near as he could judge, the crewd numbered at least 75 men. There appeared to be 50 men around the jail and office, and he could see is! Others on guard around adjoining buildings, Pistol Only Firearm Hallan stated the only firearm in the sheriff's office was @ .32 calibre pistol which was in the drawer of one desk, but this was taken by one of the crowd when the desk was searched for keys to the cell.

Tempor: ed, after he arrived at the scene from Minot. He came to the bridge with Hallan, Dobson turned over the mask | and cloth to Curran. | Curran said he was called about 2 a. m. by Chief of Police Hans Nelson, | Watford City, and was told of the| lynching. He observed the body as it | was taken from the bridge and at- tended the post mortem examination. Curran identified the mask and piece of cloth given him by Dobson. Sorroborates Verdict Dr. Johnson testified he had made the post mortem examination of | Bannon and corroborated the verdict of the coroner's jury. He stated marks on the left arm and leg could have been made by the body being j slid over some rough surface. ' A scar on Bannon’s neck was said by the doctor to have been an old one. He declared he recollected treating Bannon for a wound on the neck in February, 1930, after the death of the Haven family. There were no marks on the body to indi- | cate Bannon had been treated roughly by the mob other than the marks made by the ropes on the neck and wrists, according to Dr. Johnson. Attorney General Morris left for | Williston Friday morning to question James Bannon and Fred Maike in an cifort to gain some clue as to the identity of members of the mob. Morris questioned the sheriff and | deputy before the coroner’s jury was impaneled and later visited the Hav- en farm, where Ed Evanson, who was appointed guardian of the place, told | of a visit to the farm by the mob. Evanson declared that members of the mob told him they intended lynching Bannon on the farm, but men made such an attempt. He said his wife and six children would have been badly frightened by the excite- ment. Evanson could not identify any of the crowd.
