GRAINS DROP WHEN WEATHER EXPERTS ~ EXPECT MOISTURE 4 {A L. Slowness; of Eastern’ Demand Am. & For Pow. for Corn Also Is a Weak- (ening Influence I Chicago, Feb, 4—(P)—Possibilities A of moisture tonight in drought ter-|“ ritory southwest led to price setbacks in grains late Wednesday. Slowness! of easterh demand for corn was also & weakening influence. Foreign buy- ers of wheat were reported as at least vances. ‘Wheat closed irregular at 1-2c de- cline to} 1-8c advance, May old 81 7-8, duly 675-8, Corn 1-8 to 3-4 down, May old 65 3-8 to 65 1-2, July 66 1-2 to 5-8, Oats unchanged to 3-8 up, and provisions 12 to 20c off. Buyers of wheat based operations|Canadian Pac. . not only on persistent drought ad: bo ae cha vices and on fears of crop damage bu' Je Pasi also on the fact that Liverpool quota- | greg Otay tions represented wheat at only 45 cents @ bushel in export countries. ‘This was asserted to discount a tre- mendons, depression in commodity levels the world over, and to afford ownership opportunities which might! not be duplicated in a generation. Authoritative estimates of world im- port requirements of wheat were in- creased 32,000,000 bushels, chiefly in non-European countries, but with European consumer needs larger than hitherto. Corn displayed more strength at times than wheat did. Domestic pri- mary receipts of corn showed a fur- ther falling off. The total was 676,000 bushels, against 822,000 a week back, and 1,338,000 a year ago. Chicago arrivals, 112 cars, were larger than| last week, but contrasted with 172 on the corresponding day of 1930. How- est in a long time, with Ohio corn of- | fered lower than Chicago's basis. Oats paralleled the action of other) cereals. { Provisions were easy, responsive toj change in hog values. WEATHER POSSIBILITIES BRING ABOUT CHANGE | Minneapolis, Feb. 4—(#)—Wheat futures started strong on good cables continued dry weather news but there | was a sudden change in trend when the el oo the uel May and July closed unc! ed. ~ Corn, parley, and rye closed lower, but oats and flax were up, the latter advancing a cent on scattered buy- ing. Gash receipts were smaller. There | was fair demand for heavy low pro- | tein quality but the general markct was slower. There was some farm board buying. Winter and durum were quiet and unchanged. Cash corn demand was fair to good. Oats demand was a shade slower but fair to good. Rye demand was good. Barley demand was fair to good and tone firmer. Flax demand was still good with offerings light. CHICAGO LIVESTOCK Chicago, Feb. 4—(AP—U. 8. D.

MINNESOTA POSTAL ROBBERIES PROMPT Federal. Government Will Give $2,200 for Information Bringing Convictions LOOT MAIL BUS AT MORRIS Ransack 21 Sacks of Mail but Get Little; Was Third Re- cent Postal Robbery St. Paul, Feb. 4—(P)—A reward of $2,200 was offered by the U. 8S. gov- ernment Wednesday for information leading-to the arrest and conviction of robbers who rifled mail pouches here and at Morris, Minn. The announcement was made by Joe Johnston, chief postal inspector for the northwest. Two hundred dol- ‘lars was offered for information con- cerning the St. Paul robbery Mon- day night, and $2,000 was put up for the Morris theft, which took place Tuesday night. The reward for the Morris affair, Johnston said, was made larger be- cause the three men who stole 21 sacks of mail. from a Northland Transportation bus near that town, were armed. Loot estimated by police at about | $50,000 was obtained in the two rob- |beries while in a third $200 in stamps the postoffice at Waltham, Minn., was blown open Tuesday. The sacks stolen at Morris contain- ed nothing of unusual value, investi- gators said. Several registered letters were in the mail but a checkup with postmasters at Browns Valley, Beards- ley, Barry, Graceville, Johnson, Cho- kkio and Alberta revealed their worth was slight. ‘With the exception of a description of the automobile used by the bandits, officers said they had no tangible clues. The bandits were about 25 years old and were unmasked. Two of the sacks, containing sec- ond class mail, mostly packages, were thrown away by the robbers a short distance from where the robbery oc- curred, Sheriff Ryan said. Two pos- tal inspectors were continuing the investigation. Fifty thousand dollars, mostly in coupons from bonds, was set as the loss through theft of a pouch from mail truck here Monday night, the first of the three postal robberies of which the Morris holdup was the BUTLER, LEONARD CONFER SECRETLY ‘ Newspaper Men, However, Are Unable to Learn What Plans Developed ‘Washington, Feb. 4—(®)}—A secret conference was held We be- Bismarck, N.D., clear. 25 4 Amarillo, Tex., cl 36 Boise, Idaho, 3 Calgary, Alta., clear Chicago, II., Denver, Colo.
