BLACKMERUP IN PARISCOURT Seek to Get Teapot Witness Back in U. S. By United Press PARIS. Nov. 27.—Henry M. Blackmer, jaunty and smiling, appeared today before the accusation court for a hearing on the demand of the United States government for his extradition. It was the culmination of months of effort by the American government to get the missing Teapot Dome witness back to that country. Blackmer is accused by the United States government of making false statements in his income tax returns. The court fight will be over whether that constitutes an extraditable offense under French law. Blackmer was represented by a French Lawyer, M. Aubepin. Avocate General Phillippon represented the government, combining the duties of judge and prosecuting attorney. Philippon summarized the principles of jurisprudent bearing on extradition proceedings involving France and the United States, indicating a belief that there is little hope for "expecting the request to be granted.” Philippon added that the French perjury law gave a suspected or guilty person immunity three years after his offense. Blackmer's offense, he said, was six years old. Aubepin, Blackmer’s lawyer, reiterated Philippon’s assertions more strongly, stressing the role which he said politics had played in the demand for Blackmer’s extradition. Aubepin said the demand for extradition was impelled by the Hearst press” and Senator Walsh's saying, "Let's bring Blackmer back, no matter what the reason.”

LACK OF NEWS CAUSES GRAINS TO MARK TIME Stimulation Needed to Send Market Either Way; Corn Weak. By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 27.—Grain futures marked time on the Board of Trade today, lacking any news that would stimulate buying or selling. Lower Liverpool cables gave wheat a weak undertone; corn was firm. Oats followed wheat. At the opening wheat was unchanged to %c lower; corn was unchanged to %c off. Provisions were irregular. December wheat has been giving indications of weakness after acting tight for some time. The spread between the December and May deliveries, which narrowed to 7c. may widen considerably. If longs decide to unload. The active month has been strengthened, however, by elevator interests, who are selling the deferred futures and buying December to secure the cash grain. Sentiment in com is divided and both sides will have to fight in order to obtain a material chance. The market has been taking a fair amount of hedge sales. Indicating that purchases of cash corn to arrive to exceed exports. The situation in oats remains unchanged, depending upon the action of the country in selling or holding its oats and upon the cash markets here. Chicago Grain Table —Nov. 27WHEAT— Prev. Hißli.

In the Stock Market
(By Thom*on Sc Mcl^nnon) NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—1n the stock market an explanation is always demanded for every change in value as well as in money rates. Sometimes the answer is correct, occasionally only partly so. Yesterday's advance in the money rate was promptly followed by the explanation that probably fifty million dollars will be withdrawn over the Thanksgiving holiday. The withdrawal of this large sum, we think, is a fair estimate, but probably only in part responsible for yesterday’s money rate. The market’s own demands is the major reason. However, if you are going to consider the question of withdrawals, what will you say as to the amount to be withdrawn next month? We think it will be an unprecedented withdrawal of currency and will have a major effect on our money rates. However, we are still in November, and since a goodly number are beginning to see the good that is in the railroad list, finally recognizing a situation worthy of their attention, we ought to have a fairly good market In this list for several weeks. SEND PAY FOR LAND Citizens to Get $347,000 for Flood Prevention Project.
