Fremont, Neb., July 24.—An elab orate finger print system developed by Sheriff Condit, Dodge county, has led to the Identification of John B. Bates, alias Edward P. Mapes, held at Cleveland, O., as the man who escaped from the Saunders county Jail eight years ago where he was awaiting trial for horse stealing. Bates escaped from the Wahoo jail la 1915 while doing some outside work. His arrest followed a six months' investigation upon complaint of Oscar Burt, Saunders county farmer, that a valuable horse had been stolen. Condit received word today that Mapes was serving 120 days in the Cleveland (O.) workhouse for petty larceny. His finger prints were en closed with the communication. A careful check of Condit's files proved that Mapes is none other than the escaped SaVinders county prisoner who had eluded capture for the last eight years. New York Sugar. New York.

There waa a fair demand for wheat on the Omaha floor with pricea 1 to lVfcc lower. Corn was quoted \c lower on the yellow and mixed and Vfcc higher on the white. Oat* and'rye were posted as unchanged and barley nominally un ' changed. Weak and lower Liverpool cables In creased offerings of new wheat together with a very light export demand brought about a lower range of values In the Chicago futures market today. Specula tive demand was Inadequate to absorb thei hedge sales put Into the market. The weakness of the stock market waa also a factor. Prospects for rain In the corn belt caused holders to part with their holdings of that cereal. The markets continued today through the entire ses sion with final prices about the lowest for the day. Mark«t News.

July 24.—Persistent, selling of wheat futures today, partially In the way of hedging, was too much for the timid buying power. Prices drifted steadily lower and closed at bottom lev els. Weakness in securities and cotton, along the cooler temperatures In the northwest, were factors In the break in grains. Wheat closed 144 to 1 T4c lower; corn was Ho higher to He lower; oats wereH to %«• lower; rye ruled 4i to ]%c down, and barley finished steady. Pit observers attributed the bblk of the pressure in September wheat to the unloading of lines by leading interests. I here was selling of the December that a, few thought was for foreign account. The local elements were in a bearish frame of mind the greater part of the I day. The seaboard checked up on 50,000 to 400,000 bushels wheat for export. Corn Higher Kflrly. Sustained by the strength in the July delivery, which reached new high levels on the crop, the corn mart moved into higher ground early, but the slump in the leading cereal and reports of fair rains over the corn belt led to scattered selling late which carried the market lower. * Oats followed other grain, to lower level.. A. In corn, cash Interests .old the July and shorts covered Pressure was still lacking in the rye market but prices dipped with other grains There was also the fooble buy ing power present.

By li^ivmttl Her vice. New York, July 24.—Tn» undercurrent of bearish sentiment which has prevailed the last 4X hours dominated the stock market today and after the smoke of battle cleared leading nhares showed minus signs of from 1 to 3 points. Wall street reeked with gloom again and the heaviness caused many to de sert the ranks of the bulls. The fact i hat the depreciations resulted from a comparatively light volume of offerings caused much disappointment. Earnings of the equipment companies are unusually good and they have a large volume of businean booked, but this did not prevent those shares from declining sharply. Baldwin Locomotive dropped more than 3 points. Rail Nhares Slump. Pressure on the Northwestern railroad stocks again appeured, forcing those shares down more than a point each. The decline was helped by lower prices for wheat. Cotton was alao lower. The selling of stocks continued through out the session and grew in volume as the lowest pricep were reached. Lower quotations for French francs and a new' low level for German marks held out little hope for'a confirmation of Wall street's hopes of favorable developments relative to th# Ruhr Situation and repara tions. Sterling, however, was steady. Oil Nhares Nuffer. Oil shares continued to suffer from the reductions announced the preceding day in the prices of gasoline The street has become reconciled to the expectation of a cut in the price of midcontinent crude. This reduction will probably materialize about the time important oil producers meet Wednesday at Chicago to consider the situation Expectation of lower prices of midcontinent crude is so universal that not even the big producers take the ttouhle of issuing a technical denial. Steel company shares were Just as weak as other departments. Speculative bonds were lower in sym pathy with weakness in stocks. High grade issues, however, showed a steady undertone Steadiness also appeared in foreign government Issues.
