Magee, Albu querque editor on trial here tpfore Judge J. D. Leahy for contempt, was completed this afternoon. Magee said that when he published certain editorials about a certain alleged political machine here, and criticized the district court, that "he knew he was putting his head in the lion's mouth.” ”1 meant that if this court is right, then I am wrong,” he said. "I think I am right and I urge a court of Im peachment to prove it. I meant that conditions here are rotten. I have contempt for the methods of Judge Leahy in this court." As to his statement earlier in the day, in which he said he thought an investigation of the courts of Judge Reed Holloman, of Santa Fe, and Judge M. P. Owen, at Las Lunas, was desirable, Magee declared that he did not place those judges In the same class with Judge Leahy. "My only criticism of them,” he said, "is pernicious activity in political affairs.” Deadwood Recalls ^Old Frontier Days 40 Rosebud Reservation In dians-Going Horae From Roundup Entertain.

Lincoln, July 12.—A request Mr warrants totalling 1420.000 for work done during 1921 and 1922 was made by state highway contractors whose claims have not been paid, because the highway appropriation for the old biennium was overrun.

Chicago, July 12.-»Wheat rallied well above the dollar mark early to day, but when longs tried to take profits they uncovered an exhausted demand and prices fell back to lower levels at the bell. In view of the rather favorable news on tap the action of the market was very dis appointing to many and only served to accentuate the feeble breadth of speculatin'# interest. Wheat closed l-8c to 1 4c lower, corn was l*8c higher to 3-4c lower, oats were l-8c lower to 3-8c advanced, rye ruled l-8c up to l-8c off and bar ley finished steady. The country sold only moderate amounts of new crop wheat and hedg ing pressure was consequently light. Houses with eastern and northwest connections were good buyers on the opening dip and^horts covered. Rust news from the American and Canad ian northwest was renewed but did not stir much apprehension. Corn Irregulnr at Clone. Corn moved to an irregular clone. July lout most of its gain at the last because of the weakness in the deferred deliveries. The cash situation whs tight, however, with yellow grades aelling at 6 4c over the current month. At Buffalo No. 1 yellow’ corn brought 11.02. Oats manifested a firm undertone at times. Cash houses were on both sides of the July, while elevator interests took the September. Trade in rye was dull, with Qte under tone firm. Prices cloned irregularly. Cable# eay that Germany will be a big buver of rys within the next, few morf'tha. Provisions were dull and eaay. Lard and ribs wer« unchanged to 2V»o higher. Pit Notes. Data received from the Department nf Agriculture does not confirm statements made rather promiscuously the past few weeks that the United States will have a big carryover thia year. The stocks in country mills and elevators were placed at 36.458.000 bushela, which, added to the commercial visible storks on farms and available supplies, would bring the carryover to 101.000.000 bushels com pared with 80.000.000 bushel* last 'ear. The government forecast, as of Julv 1, estimated a production of winter and spring wheat of 41,000.000 bushels under last year. So the prospective supplies this year are figured out at 20.000,000 bushela under 1022. A better demand for choico rash wheat was noted in the southwestern markets. while locally premiums on hard grades were steady to firm. Lain over Kansas were reported to be delaying the movement of new wheat from the interior Private expert# were at variance on the rust situation north west. Most reports said that with favor able weather damage from rust would be insignificant. Minneapolis miller# lowered prices on H'-ur jn harlot# to the lowest levels since early in 1915. The demand for cash wheat in the Minneapolis market was in clined to be backward, the report that considerable new wheat bought in the southwest to le shipped there, having a depressing influence on spot.

New York, July 12.—Premier Bald win 'b fipeeoh before parliament today was a distinct disappointment to Wall street, as It did not shed any more light on Great Britain’s attitude than had been known heretofore. The inability of the street to read anything new in the address resulted in dullness, the total turnover for the day being the smallest in weeks. Prices eased off in the afternoon, but the list did not show any signs of weakness, final quotations showing net frac* tional gains in the leaders. Watch Exchange Market. In lieu of its inability to gain any ad ditional knowledge of Great Britain's plana relative to the occupation of the Ruhr by the French, tha atreet turned I to the foreign exchange market for pos sible light, but here it was also dicap pointed for moat foreign exchange rates were only slightly lower, while the pound | sterling was a trifle higher. Price fluctua tions of the F rerich franc are bring watched carefully by International bank ers for Indications as to the probable al Itilude to be assumed by the French. One encouraging development wm the announcement by the American Petroleum Institute that production during the week ended July 7 showed a dc rease of 11.200 barrels This Is the first reduction in production reported in weeks and holds out the hope that producers have at lam got production under control. Oil shares, however, failed to show any appreciation of this change for the better in the In dustry Another decrease would probably meet with response. Bond Market Bull. The bond market continued dull, al though quiet absorption continues of high grade issues. j Much hopefulness regarding our foreign trading was derived from the announce ment of imports and exports for June, showing an excess of exports over Im port# of $1,900,009. In May there was nn excess of imports over exports of $56,595,090 In April Imports exceeded ex ports by $38,513,000, and in March the exrsH* of Imports over exports was $57, 016,000. The June foreign trade state ment was considered significant. In that It indicates that the balance of trad# has turned In favor of the United States Commodity markers showed a better undertone Cotton advanced about $1 a hale Wheat was slightly higher. A het ter demand and a higher price tendency was reported for copper metal. — New York Quotations Hanf# of price* of the lead-n* atocks furniah*d by l^ogao A Bryan, 2 41 Petera Trust building RAILROADS.
