CHICAGO GRAIN CLOSE IS LOWER Sharp Decline Registered in Wheat Pit. Bii I'nifrd Press CHICAGO, May 14.—A1l grains closed lower on the Cihacog Board of Trade today. There was a sharp decline in wheat price levels and it increased lti the coarse grain pits. Liquidations was the chief reason why wheat closed sharply lower In all deliveries. Other factors that contributed to the rapid decline were the reports of large shipment from Duluth and Ft. William on their way here and the weakness of the foreign exchange—especially in the Italian lire, which practically eliminates that country from the export field. Corn dosed fractionally lower In all deliveries, in sympathy with wheat. Oats maintained the firmest tone, although the pit was quiet. Prices were unchanged for May and September and only a small fraction off for July. Provisions closed higher'. Chicago Grain Table —May 14— WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low.

In the Cotton Market

(By Thomson & MoKinnont NEW YORK. May 14. —The cotton mar ket opened weak this morning. but shortly afterwards private reports of rain in western Texas raised a 10 point advance. These reports were confirmed later by the weather map. As the crop stands today rain is needed east of the State of Mississippi where stands are poor and replanting will soon be necessary on a large scale. The area to the west has had too much rain, temperatures too low, and germination much retarded. The crop is as unlike that of last year as it is possible to be. and that alone is enough to encourage buying Declines run into dull periods Instead of bringing out sales. We ilo not think the trade will remain indifferent to conditions much longer unless most favorabie weather soon makes its appearance. The long side continues to retain our support. FATHER, SON ARRESTED Blind Tiger Charge Brought by PoHc*. Police raided the home of Frank Smerdel, 66, of 766 KKetchajn St., Thursday night and arrested Smerdel and his son John, 19, after they said they found a large still in operation. They confiscated seven gallons of finished white mule and other equipment for the manufacture of cheap whisky. Other blind tiger arrests Thursday night were: Joe Isenhut, 23, of 950 W.
