LONDON BAR SILVER, LONDON, Jan. 11.~Bar silver off %d at 3844, I , I ) (By International News Service.) CHICAGO, Jan. 11.—There {s no disposition on the part of members of the big railroad brotherhoods to call a strike at this time, according to more than 600 grievance chairmen who are in session here today with the heads of the brotherhoods. They declared that the meeting will discuss only possibilities and plan ac tion In case no headway is made toward granting their demands with in a reasonable length of time. First, they want to see what ruling the Su preme Court will make on the valid ity of the Adamson eight-hour law and to watch the proposed congres sional legislation which would compel arbitration of all differences with the railroads. “There will be nothing to give out concerning our deliberations today,” sald W. G. Lee, president of the train men, as the chairmen went behind closed doors for their meeting. “Per haps tomorrow we will have some thing for the public.” W. 8. Carter, president of the fire men, and Warren Stone, president of the engineers, also were in attend ance. A. B. Garretson, head of the coniductors, has been in the West In dies for some time. The chief points which were to be brought up at the meeting, accord ing to some of the officlals who were here, were: What action can be taken to prevent Congress from passing a law compelling arbitration of all differences between the rall roads and their men. What action shall be taken in the event the Adamson law is held invalid by the Supreme Court. What action shall be taken in the event the decision is long de layed. & What shall be done if the law is upheld but the rallroads find methods of evading its terms. Switchmen, who are not affected by the Adamson law, were threat ening a strike as they prepared for their subconferences today. The terms of a recent award by an East ern board of arbitration were the subject of their grievance. An in crease of 5 cents an hour was gliven switchmen on thirteen Eastern roads, but no provision was made to raise the pay of the men employed on the principal Western lires. Gompers Says Unions Oppose Strike Cure (By International News Service.) WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, told the Senate Interstate Commerce Commission to day that organized labor stood unan imously and unalterably opposed to President Wilson's strike prevention progoul. “There has not been a labor meet ing anywhere in the United States the legislation was proposed where there has not been an overwhelming vote against any enactment Impos‘lfc com-. pulsory arbitration or in oluntary servitude upon workingmen,” he de clared. Gompers, a strong supporte. of President Wilson during the last cam palgn, interpreted the election result “as indicating the people viewed with satisfaction what had been done for the masses of workingmen.” The constitutionality of the Adam son “elght-hour” bill, now before the Supreme Court, i not of such great importance in itself, Gompers said, but its passage by Congress is of far reaching conssquence as a declara tion of the people for the eight-hour day. P. J. McNamara, vice president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire.- meén and Engineers, declared Wwall Street, and not the railroad presi dents and managers, was behind the movement to knock out the eight hour day law. He estimated the rail roads spent $4000,000 “to fool the public” with newspaper advertising during the eight-hour controversy. e e P : Nominal at 18.40 Atlanta spot’ cotton was quoted 25 points lower Thursday to 18 40 cents by the Atlanta Commerecial Exchange., The tone of the market was nominal. Local dealers say merchants and country dealers are offering no eotton and that the holding movement is be coming more pronounced. NEW YORK SUGAR MARKET, | Sugar yuotations: | __Opening.

There is a declded disposition being shown on the part of the public to go slow In buylng at the moment, due to prospects of further efforts to bring about peace. ‘“Wheat bulls said they were not sur prised at the action of the market ves terday, In fact, a reaction was due, as prices have advanced about 35c on fily from the low of December 21. The break of B%c¢ from the high point of Tuesday put the market in & position to respond quickly to any good buying. Theé technical situation has been weak ened by the sharp advance. Declines, they say, do not increase the lu?ply of wheat available for Europe. Unless something definite i{s uncovered in the way of peace, they believe that the strong cash situation again will come to the front and that purchases should be made on breaks. “Cash corn handlers say it looks as though the greater part of the grain offered in Central Illinois at 92¢ to 95¢c had been cleaned up and that it will ‘take higher prices to bring out any ma }lerlll quantity.” John F. Clark & Co.’ JoonNn ' ar 0.8 I Daily Cotton Letter y I NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 11.—Liverpool is merely folowing the lead of the American markets and made a full re sponse to our decline yesterday, quot- In‘ spots 26 points lower; sales 8,000 bales. London says the entente reply to the President's peace note has been handed to the American Ambassador, so wa ought to get it ghortly. On its ténor much will derend on defining political views of the future and consequent ac tion by speculation. llf it shoud be a flat refusal of peace offers, pessimism would be enhanced and lead to pressure in the markets, but if it in any way supports the chance for further peace negotiations, bullish enterprise would be stimulated in cotton. Yesterday's decline was entlrolr _Fm litlcal, prnmgned on the basis o he Manchester Guardian's Interpretation of Mr. Gerard's .‘vrmwh at Berlin In the light of a warn ng to Germany against submarine extension. The reactionary change in the Russian ministry and new war oan efforts in England were all claimed by the bear element. | Lancashire mlllg are, however, 8o prosperous, according to the following report to Wuhlngton that a full con sumption and a hard fight for cotton seems a certainty, Dry goods reports continue bullish. Pacific coast clears 17,000 bales to Ja pan, making 33000 bales so far this week, which will go into the count of spinners’ takings tomorrow, Our market opened about 10 points down, but recovered the loss promptly on buylns based on the discount of fu tures under spots. However, further selling followed on the expectation of more pressure from Wall street on polit feal pessimism. This rrflsure appeared toward the close of the first hour and was evidently extended to Liverpool, where the dec'ine reached 37 golnts for the day, while our market roke to around 17.50 for March. The actual facts of the situation are as bullish as ever. Epots are firmly held and it is not likely that a situation, which has been tempered hfi.. H-cent decline and liquidation will affected by temporary politics. The increasing discount of futures under spots is work. ing Into the hands of consumers and the bulls, nu[‘eullnr the use of the de cline for a bull position on the market Spots here are firm.

CHICAGO, Jan. 11.—Wheat opened % to Il%c lower today on heavy seliing, but later offerings were absorbed by commission houses and May advanced 2Y%c from the early low. Traders in corn sold on the early break in wheat and prices were in‘!ht ly lower than yesterday’s close after opening fractionally higher. Commission holtlxiue‘; took the buying side after wheat rallie Oats were a shade firmer at the open ing on scattered buying of a featureless character. Provisions were lower on light trading. All the grain markets on the Board of Trade closed in complete control of the buls today. Those on the bear side of the various cereas made a strenuous effort to hammer values tc a level where there would be little {f any recuperation, and, while they were successful in fore ing prices downward, they were unab e to hold them there, as the buying pow er developed sharply on all weak spots. ~ Wheat closed at advances of 3to 4c; corn was up 1% to I%c, and oats were | 3% to %c higher. _ Cash sales here were: Wheat, 40,000 bushels; corn, 10,000 bushels, and oats, I 50,000 bushels, - Hog products were 10c to 25c lower, with pork the weakest spot of the list.
