Chicago, Ills., Dec. 10.—Severe cold that hampered. teaming from farms and also handicapped the. railways tended today to make the corn market average higher. Prices closed un- settled, Jan. 1.205 to 1.20% and May {1.19% the range as a whole varying from quorter cent off to % cent ad- vance, compared with Saturday's fin- insh. Oats gained 1% to 1% cennt and provisions 30¢ to 50c. Corn traders gave first attention to ; the outlook that continued low tem- peratures meant considerable slowing \up of the crop movement, and further- more implied an increase of feeding demand. On the resulting bulge in ' prices, however, buying was not of an aggressive character, and it was ‘pointed out ibat the prevailing cold weather was fine for the conditioning ‘of corn. Something of a setback fol- lowed owing in part. to prospects that the embargo on shipments to the east would lead in the near future to a rapid accumulation of ‘stocks here. The fact, though, that offerings were readily: absorbed in the late, dealing \evoked a fresh rally as the ‘session came to and end. Oats paralleled the action of corn. The visible supply total showed a decided falling off on ‘account of large reductions at sea- board points. Scantiness of hog arrivals gave strength to provisions.

The court divided in the Hitchman case, six to three, Justices Brandeis, Holmes and Clark dissenting. No far- mal dissenting opinion was rendered, except a brief statement made by Jus- tice Brandeis, who said he believed the union had a right to do the things to which the other members of the court objected. Contempt proceedings _ instituted last month by the Hitchman Coal and Coke company against President Frank J. Hayes of the Miners’ union and tifteen other officials and mem- bers for alleged violation of the in- junctions, are still pending and ac- cording to the company’s counsel will be pressed. The court today granted the defendants sixty days in which to present their case. Gompers Makes Comment. Today’s opinion was characterized in a statement issued tonight by Pres- ident Samuel Gompers of the Americ- an Federation of Labor as “far reach- ing and unwarrantable.” He said through it John Mitchell, former presi- dent and W. B. Wilson, former secre- tary reasurer of the Miners’ Interna- tional union are stigmitized as con- spiraiors. Despite the opinion, he de- clared, the work of organizing the workmen of the country in order to “reach our goal for a better concept of not only political but industrial democracy” will continue unabated.
