LATE SELLING HAS A BEARISH EFFECT ON GRAIN MARKET Sales Develop on Wheat Price Bulges; Southwest Crop Report Favorable Chicago, March 17.—(?)—Late sell- ing which developed on price bulges a wy in wheat had a bearish effect on all grains Tuesday near the close. Favor-j atchi able crop reports about domestic win- ter wheat came from the southwest, and North American export dealings were apparently at a standstill. Gov- ernment-sponsored agencies were said to have offered wheat abroad but ef- fected no sales. Wheat closed heavy, unchanged to 1 1-4 lower, (May old 81 1-4 to 3-8, July 62 1-8 to 1-4). Corn 3-4 to 1 5-8 down, (May old 63 3-4 to 7-8, July 66 1-4 to 3-8). Oats unchanged to 3-8 up, and provisions showing a rise of 2 to 10. i Opening at sc off to ‘4c up, corn later seored @ general advance. Wheat started unchanged to 4%@ down and subsequently showed some gain. Failing of in the movement of corn to terminal markets, as reflected by an increase of 897,000 bushels in the visible supply, had much to do -with strengthening of prices. to press sales, although wheat at the start was tem} rily responsive to weakness of quotations at Liverpool. Argentine shippers had loweret their ‘ices, and the Liverpool trade was arish owing to European continen- tal ct anes proposals to re- duce rt duties. Helping, to rally wheat, though, were firmer silver exchange rates tending to promote business with China. Notice also was taken both by corn and wheat traders of fears expressed by meteorologists regarding likelihood oi another drouhgt this summer, hitting hardest some sections relatively untouched last summer. Reports said moisture conditions were threatening in parts of Iowa and the spring wheat area, and that in many pinces elsewhere the winter was the driest on record, Oats followed wheat corn. ; ar ovisions reflected a big decrease of land stocks.

In a_ statement interpreted as a suggestion that some one other than President Hoover be ited by his party, Senator Johnson,.Republi- can, California, Monday expressed his opinion in these words: “There is something radically wrong somewhere. Somebody should ascertain what it is.” He said Republican critics of the Progressives should think twice be- fore they talk. | At the same time a Kansas Dem- ocrat, Representative Ayres, deplored 1 possible division in his party-on pro- hibition and asked for repudiation of the state liquor control plank sug- gested by Chairman Raskob vent such an eventually, 1 “This is the time when the Demo- [sratic party must establish a new 3 Dais-| ;|@mong the dead. to} red durum 53% to 59%. | 3{ @age on his parents’ farm near Wah- i to pre- | THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, MARCH 17, 1931 economic system as its dominant ts | sue,” he said. The Kansan, however, did not in- dicate he would favor the nomination of either a “wet” or “dry” to head his Party ticket. He said a president has ho more to do with “whether the 18th amendment shall be retained, modi- aes or repealed than any private citizen.” Three Americans Are Among Those Reported Missing (Continued from page one) Clations, details of the disaster re- mained meagre at noon Tuesday. It word from Capt, Kean began from the Island. The belief among shipping men familiar with construction of the Viking was that Frissell, Penrod and Sargent were quartered aft, where the explosion was hardest. If that is true, and if the men were there at the time of the explosion, it is more than likely they were killed. What caused the explosion has not been explained. It was said that it} may have resulted from dynamite often used to blast a ship's way through the ice. Friends of Frissell in New York, however, said the Vik- ing carried no explosives. One explanation that received cred- ence was that the Viking, seeking to pound its way through the fettering floes, may have put toogreat a strain on the boilers, putting on so much steam as to result in an explosion. No Explanation Given The account of the explosion given the Newfoundland government by Captain Kean did not give any ex- planation, and it was unlikely that he, on the bridge, would have such information. It was known, ‘however, that the explosion occurred close to, if not actually in, the engine room, The engine crew are numbered Because of the limited wireless fa- cilities and the remoteness of Horse | island, the Bowring company has been unable to check its list of those {aboard the Viking against a list of | those on the island. The explosion, coming about 9 o'clock Sunday night, found most of the members of the crew—all Cana- idians, in their berths, although few probably had retired. Those for- ward, Capt. Kean said, escaped injury and were able to make their way to the ice from which finally they reached shore. Those in the stern must either have been killed outright, {the captain believes, or severely | wounded. Some survivors told of secing sev- ! eral motionless forms lying on the ice, and of hearing moans. The weather was not particularly cording to the’ weather office, but it was sufficiently sharp to lend to the hardships of those who escaped with their lives. Secrecy Develops | As Officials Seek For Wahpeton Man! (Continued from page 1) |Bjornson as the man wanted. One ‘ charges kidnaping and the other ex-| | tortion, _ Both will _be prosecuted | should Bjornson be captured, Arnold Forbes, Richland county state’s at- torney, said Monday night. Information given Richland county authorities and which is the basis for the warrants makes the following allegations: That Bjornson on May 24, three days after the extortion, deposited $23,800 in a Twin City bank. Paid Parents’ Mortgage That Bjornson had paid the mort- | if Peton. That Bjornson bought his parents a home in Wahpeton and gave them @ car. That Bjornson told Wahpeton au- thorities and folks he made his sud- den wealth in a gold mine, 1 That Bjornson bought himself an airplane and a car and that he other- wise spent money lavishly. i That Bjornson, when questioned by a Twin City banker about his wealth, | said that he had made his money in| the contracting business. That Bjornson’s only connection with the contracting business had been ds a timekeeper for a Wahpeton firm and that he had been relieved of this position. That Bjornson told Wahpeton resi- dents’ conflicting stories about the source of his sudden affluence. Bjornson, who bought his plane last, summer, was not a licensed pilot, still taking lessons, although he had made ® number o* solo flights. May Implicate Others Possibility that more than one per- son is implicated in the case de- veloped here Tuesday. Gordon Bjornson, 23, sought as the perpetrator, spent the entire evening of March 7 in a Wahpeton, dance hall and passed much of the time talking with the ‘local chief of police, it has been learned. It was during this time that a chunk of coal was thrown through a window in the Leach home and to which was attached a note threaten- ing reprisals if the investigation was not dropped. Meanwhile a group of business men, who have been guarding the Leach home night and day, were replaced Was only then that the first direct | ra coming in over the government wireless here i | severe, being “moderately cold,” ac- |" | Weather Report 7 ° Temperature at 7 32 Highest Monday 50 Lowest during ni 32 Precipitation to 7 a. m.
