GRAIN MARKET I HOLDS STEADY ; IN DULL TRADE Definite Change in Corn Sentiment Needed to Sway Prices. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE E'nited Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, March 19.—A1l grains 'opened steady on the Board of Trade today, with scarcely sufficient trade to move prices. It was a dull, lifeless trade. Wheat pursued its aimless course that has seen the early action of the last few days reversed at the close. Prices have held to an Exceedingly narrow range, with breaks meeting resistance and bulges encountering selling. Liverpool was steady, despite larger Russian shipments. Com was unmoved, with nothing new in the situation. Oats were quiet and steady. Wheat Holds Steady At the opening old wheat was unchanged to Vs cent lower, corn was unchanged to Is cent lower and oats were unchanged. Provisions dropped a few points at the start. Liverpool was fairly steady, opening unchanged) but standing unchanged to T 4 cent higher at midafternoon. Buenos Aires markets are closed today. Those friendly to the bull side of wheat took Wednesday’s action as indicating that short sellers can make no progress under the present conditions. Wheat can continue indefinitely as at present unless there is a change in sentiment or a definite incentive either way appears. Corn May Improve Evidences of a sustained improvement in the shipping demand would be of great benefit to corn trading. Wednesday’s business was the largest In a week or more. Navigation opened Wednesday at Duluth and will probably start here by the end of the week. This may improve the demand with bookings to go out by boat. The cash demand for oats has been running larger than corn with some 150,000 bushels taken Wednesday. This encourages the demand for corn and reduces oats stocks and has its effect on oats futures.

FEAR PRISON UNREST MAY TOUCH STATE Miles Describes Rioting at Illinois as ‘Dangerous Electric Current/ Continued rioting at the Illinois state prisons at Joliet is “an electric current” that already Is passing through every overcrowded ; penal institution. It carries as potential a danger of igniting prison conflicts as would high-power current passing through a powder magazine. This is the situation described today regarding prisons i n general and his own institution in particular by Superintendent A. F. Miles of the Indiana state reformatory. Pendleton, on a visit to the statehouse. Miles, accompanied by Paul Honan, Lebanon, reformatory trustee, conferred with Secretary L. O. Chasey in the Governor's office and with Attorney-General James M. Ogden. “Prison riots any place are a potential danger to every penal institution,” Miles explained. “We must, increase our vigilance and take every precaution possible. “We attempt to keep the news from spreading by censoring newspapers and magazines. But somehow these things spread like wildfire. Anew prisoner brings in the story. Soon ail are f-mHia- with it by the grapevine system of communication, which can not b stopped. “In institutions like those at Pendleton and the Indiana state prison at Michigan City the danger is greater because of the overcrowding., Prisoners are bound to conspire if thrown together. Overcrowding makes this unpreventable. “It’s a big job to handle rioting men. Our hope lies in preventing the thing from getting a start. Thus far we have been very successful. But our prisoners are youths and daring is part of their makeup.”
