ARRET

GRAIN QUOTATIONS WAGNER GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Nov. 10 Renewal of the coal strike has failed to create any serious buying. Market lower on the! slump of two to eight cents in cash corn. Corn belt very wet. Forecast, unsettled and colder. Cash corn still retains ten cents or more of the twenty-four cents freak upturn $1.38: to $1.62. This suggests bulge sales. December corn at $1.30, however, la twenty cents below No. 2 mixed, a liberal discount. The coal strike prices are so vast it will have to be settled! quickly. Railroads only own about j three weeks supply of coal. Senti-i ment remains easy. We believe May! corn low enough at $1.25 for long distance. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W.

COAL MEN KEEP (Continued from Page One) In case the recall order should be Issued by the miners' general committee and some of the Individual members of the union refused to recognize the authority of the order and remain idle, any action contemplated by the government could not be learned this morning. A hint, however, was given during the proceedings in the United States district court here Saturday, when Judge Anderson said "The Lever act makes it an unlawful conspiracy for two or more persons to arrange to limit the production of coal. That is perfectly apparent to me. Everybody knows that." No action, it was said, is planned by the government until after the time limit set by Judge Anderson for the issuance of the strike recall order. Meanwhile attorneys for the Union were said to be busy preparing their case for an appeal to the United States circuit court of appeals in Chicago. LABOR PREDICTS CONTINUATION WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.

Leaders predicted today that International officers of the United Mine Workers of America, meeting at Indianapolis, would not call off the coal strike as directed by Federal Judge Anderson, whatever the legal consequences might be. One of the spokesmen for the miners' organization said he doubted if acting President Lewis and his associates had the power, even if they had the inclination, to comply with the mandate. "The strike was ordered by a delegate convention, in the event the operators refused to grant our demands," the spokesman said, "and Lewis merely carried out instructions in ordering the strike. The convention must call it off." Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor would not add anything to the statement issued last night by the federation's executive council. The federation secretary had been asked for a statement, in view of the opinion in some quarters that the pronouncement of organized labor was a notice to the striking miners to stand

pat. "There is nothing to add," replied Morrison. "That question has already been asked a number of times today, and If you want an answer, you will have to assemble the council." A. F. L. INDORSES STRIKE. WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. The American Federation of Labor stood today before the country as an unqualified lndorser of the strike of soft coal miners, and as bitterly opposed to the action of the government in attempting to end the strike through injunction proceedings, which action is characterized as "so autocratic as to stagger the human mind." Indorsement of the strike was announced last night in a statement issued by the executive council of the federation, which pledged to the strikers the full support of organized labor and appealed to the citizenship of the country to give like "indorsement and aid to the men engaged in this momentous struggle." After going into the history of the events leading up to the strike and since, the statement declared the course of tho government in securing court order at Indianapolis Saturday, i directing officials of the miners' ortomorrow night an invasion of the rights of the miners and demanded withdrawal of the injunction. Use of the Lever act under which the court proceedings were instituted, was severely condemned as "an injustice to all liberty loving Americans." After declaring that "by all the facts in the case the miner's strike is justified; we indorse it; we are convinced of the justice of the miner's cause." The statement concludd with the appeal to all citizens to support the strikers and promised support of organized labor. SOLDIERS ARE MOVED. CHaRLESTON, W Va., Nov. 10. Several hundred federal soldiers who have been quartered in the armory since the inception of the coal strike were today moved to Kanawha City, 2 miles east, where they went into camp.

20,000 Acres of Corn Are Lost in Floods INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nor. 10. Ap proximately 20,000 acres of corn In' southern Indiana is a total loss as a result of the heavy rains and floods, according to the weekly crop report issued by George C. Byrant, field -agent of the bureau of crop estimates of the United States department of -agriculture. Some of the corn in other parts of the state is beginning, to rot, it says. The report follows: "Heavy rains during the latter part of October caused severe flooding In the lower White and Wabash, river valleys, as well as those of the smaller rivers and creeks In the southern, part of the state, and much damage was done. All farm work has been at a standstill during the past week, because of the wet soil conditions and continued rains. "Corn husking has been abandoned for the present, because of the unfav-

j orable weather and wet fields. Ap proximately 20.000 acres in the soutn part of the state will be a total loss, and 100,000 acres badly damaged. Because of the wet weather some corn is rotting.
