The wheat market was very erratic. On all bulges buying orders appeared and on the dips buyers were active. The price range was about 3 cents, but carried little feature compared with the rapidity of the changes. Buying by commission houses who sold yesterday strengthened corn.

U. S. KEEPS EYE ON WHEAT BOOM; HNDS NO FAULT
Government Prepared to Check Illegal Manipulation, Bu United Frill WASHINGTON, Jan. 81.—The Government is closely watching the Chicago wheat market for evidence of Illegal manipulation of prices, but thus far finds the boom has been within the law. It Is also likely that any rise in bread prices will be followed by Federal investlgtalon. For the most part, according to Information here, flour now entering bread was bought at low prices. Furthermore, when wheat and flour prices slumped after the war and bread failed to follow, bakers contended, that the flour cost was the smallelst element and that labor charges held bread up. On this basis a boost in bread prices would be challenged In Congress with demand for probe by the Federal Trade Commission. Conditions which have driven the price of wheat for May delivery to more than $2 a bushel ar* believed by Department of Agriculture officials to be: 1. World wide wheat shortage of Wheat due to crop failures last fall in various countries. 2. Natural comer of the wheat market due to heavy British purchases In the Chicago pit. These circumstances are held to warrant the increasing prices which, however, are not believed to be benefiting the farmers appreciably because most of them disposed of their crops last summer at $1.26 a bushel. Speculators are reaping the harvest of profits, officials say.

ExpWM* Delay i Prosecutor Remy said tha county grand Jury Is considering the question “with all possible speed.” "We offer no alibi for not completing the Investigation with the last grand Jury/' said Remy. "I. .will merely say that that grand Jury handled nearly twenty murder cases, made a thorough Investigation of the local labor war, which ended in Indicting John J. McNamara, Indicted Leo K. Fesler, ex-county auditor, after a long Investigation, and that part of my time was taken by the case against the Indiana Bell Telephone Cos., aiding State Attorney General 17. 8. Lesh, and that I was slok in bed ten day*.
