CLOSING GRAINS SHARPLYLOWER Profit Sales Send Wheat Into Low Ground, By United Prcis CHICAGO, Jluy 21.—Grain futures finished sharply lower on the Chicago Board of Trade Monday. Wheat jptos unable to hold its opening gains in the face of overwhelming profit and at the finish sold off sharply. Com eased off to a lower close due to highly satisfactory growing conditions and lack of buying power. Oats showed very little life after mid-day and finished lower with other grains. In the absence of any aggressive buying, provisions closed nominally steady. Chicago Grain Table —July 21— WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close. close.

Production has been steadily declining for the past three months; June contracts decreased in money value from the month preceding. In nearly all parts of the country; unemployment has increased considerably during the past thirty days in the manufacturing Indus tries. These three negtt.ve factors are partially offset, however, by the following favorable developments: Improvement in crop and price conditions in the agricultural sections; a gain in Federal Reserve debits to individual accounts: activity in buying of bonds and stocky, due to lowering of discount rates; ir.crease in latest weekly reports of freight loadings. Value of larjge contracts let during the week ended July 10, showed a substantial gain over the week preceding, particularly in large private buildings. The number of bids desired on big Jobs, all classes, also increased. Reductions in building materials prices are not being followed by similar recessions in the •act of labor, says Engineering NewsBBcord.

130,1 BOND IS SEE FOR ALLEGED AYRES BURGIAR \ Habeas Corpus Proceedings Heard Before Special Judge Wiltsie. Habeas corpus proceedings on behalf of Thomas Toohey, of Chicago, held on charges of complicity in the robbery of L. S. Ayres & Cos., June 27 and the Kiefbr-Stewart Drug Company In April, were heard by' Charles S. Wiltsie, special judge, in Criminal Court today. Toohey was captured after he attempted to run from an automobile parked near the L. S. Ayres & Cos. store when the police emergency squad appeared on the scene. His bond was set at an aggregate of $30,000 on three charges of burglary and automobile banditry. When court adjourned at noon Toohey had won the first skirmish when Judge Wiltsie overruled a motion of William H. Re my, Marion County prosecutor, to quash the writ. The cotlrt made an attemptv to have the opposing sides upon bond. Ira Holmes, attorney for Toohey, refused to agree upon bond of more than $20,000. Remy set the minimum at $25,000, and no agreement was possible. Wilts!# then ordered the attorneys to proceed with the case. Remy objected to the proceedings, characterizing them as an attempt of Toohey’s attorney to make the State show its hand and produce evidence it intends to hold for the trial. Holmes contended the $30,000 bond was so excessive as practically to constitute denial of bail.
