WHEAT AND CORN SHOW STRENGTH Trading Extremely Dull on Chicago Board. Bu United Press CHICAGO, June 24. —Wheat and corn displayed strength today and closed fractionally above Wednesday’s close, although it was one of the dullest trading days that the Chicago Board of Trade ever has seen. Oats were steady in sympathy. There some buying of wheat early in the session on the strength of the Liverpool cables, but this met with persistent selling. Reports of hail and of further rain in Kansas however, caused a rally in which all of the day's losses were recovered, and a good fractional advance over the previous close was registered in all positions. Corn closed well above Wednesday for all deliveries. Prices advanced early in the day only to slump with wheat. Oats, like corn, advanced early and then sagged,’ and closing prices were irregular, but practically the same as Wednesday’s. Provisions closed lower because of extensive selling of lard late in the day. Chicago Grain Table —June 24 WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close. close.

It is reasonable to assume that a marked increase in buying later on will occur in consequence of delayed purchase now. Such a development will find ths far months responsive.

COOK'S GRIP ON SENATE WEAK, ■ RECORD REVEALS • Has Had More Opposition on Appointments Than Any Other President. By Roaeoe B. Fleming Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. June 24.—Th-i bitter senatorial fight on President Coolidge's sixteen appointments to the new Federal tax board was merely the latest incident showing how weak a grip' he has upon the Senate, in the'securing of confirmations of his nominees. Appointment after appointment has either been hurled back at himor confirmed only after the hardest sort of a battle. Veteran Washington observers say no other President of modern times has had so much of this sort of trouble. Dawes Napped Coolidge's outstanding battle, of course, was that for the confirmation of Charles B. Warren as attorney general, which ended in defeat when Vice President Dawes was called from his afternoon nap to break the tie vote in the Senate and arrived too late after a wild taxicab ride down Pennsylvania Ave. The White House swallowed another bitter pill when the Senate rejected the nomination of Wallace McCamant of Oregon to be a member of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals in the Ninth district. This nomination was especially close to Coolidge's heart because Judge McCamant seized the psychological moment in the Republican convention of 1920 to nominate Coolidge for vice president, this being the strongest link in the chain of events which led the latter to the White House. Three Withdrawn Recently the President withdrew the renomination of Judges Thomas M. Reed and Elmer E. Ritchie to be United States judges in divisions 1 and 3 of Alaska and Arthur G. Shoup to be district attorney in No. 1. All three had been unfavorably reported by the Senate Judiciary Committee as unfit for their petitions. Numerous nominations for smaller offices also have been withdrawn or defeated. But that doesn't end the list. In the nominations of Harlan F. Stone for attorney general, Thomas F. Woodlock for the Interstate Commerce Commission, W. E. Humphrey for the Federal Trade Commission and others, the President has secured confirmation only by careful political maneuvering and after months of delay. And he has never sent the names of United States Tariff Commissioners Baldwin and Brossard, high-tar-iff advocates, to the Senate at all, although that body has been in session nearly seven months, and the appointments were made last summer. Presumably he is waiting until the present row over the tariff commission has died down a bit, and doesn't want to add fresh fuel to the flames of criticism of that body by giving senatorial critics of the commission a chance to talk about the appointments.

SAYS MILES WAS PAID FDR WORK (Continued From Page j) court room when Homer Elliott, attorney for Young, rested his client's case, immediately after Young left the stand following his testimony in his own behalf. m The courtroom expected Miles to take the stand, because it had been reported the attorney was to testify as a character witness for Young. Ward said he was prepared to batter Miles’ testimony if Miles had taken the stand. Denies Connection Miles, during a recess, again denied that he was in anyway connected with the conspiracy. Ward announced that he will personally look into the Anti Saloon League's connection with the immediately after the trial is completed. E. S. Shumaker, League superintendent. and Miles visited the district attorney's office in Indianapolis on behalf of Young last week beforee the trial, it has been disclosed. When Young testified that he. had paid the money to Miles for investigation, Judge Baltzel com mented; “This man Miles is not a Federal officer.’’ During The testimony of Young, Miles sat in the corner of the courtroom and stared constantly at the floor. SSOO Salary, SII,OOO Extra On direct examination. Young said that he received SSOO a year salary as prosecutor and that altogether his fees and other connections netted him SII,OOO annually. Elliott asked Young if he had conspired with *he defendants in the alleged conspiracy to violate the liquor law. "I did not. Most emphatically, 1 did not.” Ward then began the cross-exam-ination. “E. A. Miles has no connection with the Federal prohibition force has he?’ Ward asked. "No, said Young. "Yet you paid him $450 to investigate liquor cases while you were paid more than $9,000 a year to prosecute them. Was it your purpose to have them investigate the cases in order that you might get your fees from the prosecution of those cases? Young said he had no such purpose in mind. Ward said: "You didn’t intend to go, without getting that $450 back, did you? You knew you would get it back through fees in prosecuting the men, didn’t you?” . Young said he did not intend to do anything like that. "You didn't get any fees back from James Armstrong, did you?" from no other person in this case.” Ward then went into the statement of Harvey Smith, Knox County deputy sherriff. a defendant, who testified that SBOO was put up to transfer Armstrong’s case from Federal court to the Knox County Court. Case Transferred "You took it upon yourself to get Jim Armstrong's case in Federal Court transferred back to your court so you could prosecute him, didn't you?” Ward asked. "I did not,” Young replied. Ward asked Young if he did not telephone Miles and talk to him aboiff getting the case transferred to tne Knox County court. "Yes,’’ said Young. "I wanted to prosecute him immediately.” Young then testified that he received a fee of from SIOO to S2OO in each rase of abatement proceedings that he successfully instituted. "Did Miles get any of it," Ward asked. "No, I divided SSO of it with Hammett Hinkle for a while.” “Was he associated with you in this work,” Ward asked. “He was when we started out.” Cases Delayed Ward brought out in the cross examination of Young that Young permitted several liquor cases against Vincennes bootleggers to be unprosecuted for a long time. Ward showed that a case against August Kroeger was not prosecuted until April 9, 1926, shortly after the Federal grand jury began its investigation of ths Vincennes conspiracy. Young testified that he wa-person-ally acquainted with Roy Robinson, disbarred Vincennes attorney and defendant. He said before Robinson's disbarrment, Robinson had dropped in to see him frequently in his office. Toung said that they did not fiiscuss any liquor cases pending to Knox County oourt. Young stated that whan he was

Elliott then rested Young's case. Deputy Sheriff Smith was called to the stand by H. R. Lewis, attorney for Corbin Summers, Smith testified that .he had made no arrangements with Summers permitting the latter to violate the prohibition law. F. F. McNaughton, Bicknell newspaperman, and William Crowe, former prohibition agent, testified to the reputation of Roy Chambers, Knox County sheriff, a.* a law abiding citizen. The five defendants on trial are Chambers, Armstrong, Young, Pro* per J. Thomas, operator of the Southern Barbecue at Vincennes, and Summers. Young, on the stand Wednesday, pointed to his record of trials and convictions for liquor law violations in the Knox County court as evidence of an effort to enforce the dry laws. Robinson, according to the testimony of Young, frequently sought his advice on legal matters and borrowed law books until he was ordered out of the prosecutor's office because of a boast that he had influence with tile courts. Tells of Statement Curtis Shnke, Vincennes attorney appearing as a defense witness, told of a written statement which he said Harvey Smith, deputy sheriff of Knox County and one of the defendants who pleaded guilty, had drawn up. Shake said Smith -told him the statement contained information involving certain Federal prohibition agents in shady liquor transactions. The statement. Shake testified, asserted Roy Chambers. Knox County sheriff, had been forced to turn S4OO over to a Federal prohibition agent. The statement. according to Shake, also contained information that Smith had been bargained with to v.urn witness for the Government on promise of leniency.
