The closing tone was steady, al- though some of the leaders showed fractional declines. The turnover for the two-hour session was only about 400,000 shares. Appearance of support for sterling MINOR NET CHANGES = A New York, Nov. 26—(4)—The stock New York Stocks | Closing Prices Nov. 26 exchange was encouraging, and save somewhat better. The British dol- lar bonds, however, were again weak, and uncertainties over the war debt situation still appeared to dominate financial sentiment. only to lose its gain and close with a Joss of about a point. Santa Fe, after moving up a point, fell back. Ameri- can Telephone lost an early gain of more than a point, and a fractional advance in U. S. Steel was converted into a fractional decline before the end of the session. Gains of about a point in Eastman and National Biscuit were main- tained. On the whole, however, the |E: list closed virtually unchanged from |Eaton Mf the levels of Friday's finish. Brokers reported there had been al moderate amount of real liquidation in the share market during recent sessions, although a part of the of- ferings had been for bear account, and the early upturn Saturday rep- resented largely short-covering. The October railroad earnings statements were commented upon as! G more hopeful. In commodities, the wheat market was firm in the earlier hours of the session. losses of 5 to 25 cents a bale. FINANCIAL REVIEW New York, Nov. 26. — (4 — Wall Street's close pursuit of the war debts | trial this week led it deeper into the thicket of uncertainty and there was some contraction of values in finan- cial markets, especially commodities. Prior to the Washington debt con- ferences activity virtually ceased; la- ter, however, prices turned reaction- ary and volume expanded, although professional pressure against a very thin market appeared partially to have influenced this ruffling of placid speculative surfaces. It became increasingly evident to the financial community that solution of the foreign debt problem might be still some distance away, even though jy, payment of the December 15 install- ment was being demanded. | Weakness of sterling exchange was an outstanding reflection of the week's most headlines “situation.” If Great Britain pays her forthcoming quota—and Wall Street's opinion has been that she will do so—the drain of her balances, it was argued, would be severe and further pressure against the pound would probably result. Business, on which security markets must in the last analysis depend for sustenance, plods the seasonal path, | pr, now downward, especially is this true of heavy industries.

This was coupled with more optimism in friction. A good deal of future de-} livery buying by houses with eastern connections was associated with this development. Corn and oats borrow- ed firmness from wheat. Provisions were easy, responsive to | the course of hog values.

December wheat declined 3-4 cent for the week, closing at 45%c. Durum of the cash milling types was in steady demand and the pre- mium range held firm. Rye was inclined to fluctuate. December declined 1% cents for the week, closing at 25c. Oats worked fractionally lower. De- Semmber declined % cent, closing at! 44a. Cash demand for barley tapered off materially toward the close and with receipts considerably larger, the cash basis worked lower.

NORTH DAKOTA BOY RECEIVED ONLY $12 AS SHARE IN LOOT Merle Lowman Gives Detailed Description of How Cattle Man Was Beaten Gering, Neb., Nov. 26.—()—Merle Lowman, 18, of Westerheim, N. D., Saturday told Sheriff Vincent 8. Ramsey and County Attorney R. C. Clarke he got only $12 as his share of the $29 taken from Henry Shoop, Wibaux, Mont., cattleman, who was killed in the Chicago hotel last Oct. 30. Officers said the youth confessed he and a companion, Ben Herr, killed the cattleman. Shoop was beaten to death after accompanying a shipment of cattle to Chicago. Lowman related a story of the at- tack on Shoop, but told officers he did not know the cattleman died un- til he was arrested in a Morrill, Neb., motion picture theater last Thursday night. He said he and his compan- ion beat and choked Shoop and left him gagged and bound. They fled with the money and some of Shoop's clothing. Lowman is the son of Charles Low- man of Westerheim. He came to Ne- braska to visit his mother, Mrs. Ada Jones of Westerheim, who is staying temporarily with relatives in Scotts- bluff and Morrill. The youth told Sheriff Ramsey he and Herr left Wibaux on a train with Shoop as caretakers of cattle and that in Chicago they went to the same hotel. Herr, Lowman told the officers, made a suggestion they “roll Shoop for his money,” which they believed to total $60. The three men lay cross-wise on a bed, Lowman said, and soon Shoop fell asleep. The youth said he ob- tained a heavy water giass, wrapped it in a towel and was about to strike the cattleman when he lost his nerve. Herr grabbed the glass, Lowman related, and struck Shoop on che head several times. The cattleman ‘fought furiously, the youth told of- [ ficers, but he sat on Shoop’s hips while Herr strangled the Montanan. After taking the money and bind- ing and gagging the cattleman, the | two went by train to Jackson, Mich., divided the money and separated. Lowman said he went to Cleveland, Baltimore, Washington, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Kansas City and Lincoln before going to Morrill. He said he frequently obtained lodging in jails while without funds. : In the presence of the officers, Lowman dictated the full confession and he signed a waiver of extradition for his return to Chicago. Herr has been arrested in Pennsylvania.
