BOTH CITY AND
COUNTY READY
FOR JROUBLE
Sheriff and Police Commis
sioner Prepare Forces in
Case of Violence in
Strike Situation.
Police Commissioner Ringer,
Chief of Police Lberstfin and Sher
iff Clark held a conference Friday
morning on the strike situation and
rranged for united work in case
violence should occur. Both the
tity and county police authorities
nave the power to swear in any
number of civilians as officers dur
in? an emergency.
Mr. Ringer said he did not be
lieve the strikers would resort to
Violence.
"In case they do, however, we are
prepared to give all the protection
rccessary to those on the cars," he
said.
"It is inconceivable to me" Raid
Chief Kberste.n. Vthat the strikers
will persist in defiance of the gov
ernment war board statement. This
board was created by the president
of the United States. Its chairmen
have stated that the Strikers are
making a scrap of paper of the
agreement which they signed last
summer. They can't expect public
sympathy when they line themselves
up that way." i
Itnidstrrrl's Trade Review.
New York. Pec. 6 Bradstrect's tomor
row will say:
I'ncertalnty. savored, however, with op
tlmlim, nrcompnnled by a manifestly
lower gait In actual movements and, ad
ditional cancellations of war order, epi
tomises trade conditions. Oroplng for
tsnrlble tendencies, speculating- aa to the
trend of prices, shifting from war to
peaca work and year-end stock taldnn
occupy most attention In the larger
lines. Underneath the pause, prepara
tions to aend salesmen on the road after
the turn of the year are going on. 1m
meitlala demand, light as It Is, over
shadows overbuying In future accounts,
thus Indicating a disposition to await de
velopments while covering current needs.
On the other hand, retail trade at a
number of centers Is of large volume,
thanks chiefly to holiday purchases, these
being stimulated by cheerful feeling aris
ing out of the termination of the war,
and to a lesser estent to reduced prices
in other thim holiday goods.

"The goods market Is very unsettled at

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Dec. 6 Assertions that an
increased movement of corn from rural
sources was now assured weakened the
corn market today after an early ad
vance. The close was heavy. jjc to lriic
net lower, with January $1.30 to $1.31.
and February $1.3054 to $1.80. Oats
finished unchanged to Ho off, and pro
visions unchanged to a decline of 50
cents.
Shelling of corn was represented as be
Ins pushed In all directions, and it was
said farmers In central Illinois were haul
ing rorn at every station. Consequent
gossip that free marketing would result
gave an evident advantage to the bears,
especially as In general good weather pre
vailed. Slowness of eastern demand was
also a handicap to the bulls, who during
the first half of the session had been
able to lift prices in the temporary ab
sence of any aggressive selling, and bear
side Later, however, conditions wre
reversed, and In the last hour especially
sellers had the whiphand.
Oats displayed relative strength. Sea
board demand was fair, "and country of
ferings light.
Provisions reached with corn and hogs.
Pork was neglected as government pur
chases were said to take most of the
meat which would be made Into that prod
uct. '

New York, Dec. 6. No change was re

with the spot market entirely nominal

offerings, while the only cost and freight
business was reported tn Santos 5s, well

FINANCIAL
New York, Dec. 6. Trading iln the stock
market today, I he dullest session of several
weeks, was again limited to specialties.
notably tobaccos, at extreme advances of
1 to 5 points.
The movement in that quarter was
traceable to professional Intercuts and de
rived its impetus from a revival of rumors
.sucsesting a combination or merger of the
better known manufacturers and produc
ers. Irrrgular advances were regarded by
other specialties, such as beet sugar.
American Linseed, common and preferred,
Studebaker and American Woolen, the lat
ter scoring a material gain prior to pub
lication of ths declaration of ths extra
dividend.
Ralls were a negligible quantity
throughout apart from the strength ot
Canadian Pacific and several of the low
priced western and southern Issues. Steels,
coppers and oils fluctuated within Ir
regular limits.
Shippings favored the long account, al
though marines reacted towards ths close
In connection with rumors of unforeseen
obstacles to the proposed sale of the com
pany's British tonnsge to ths United
Btates government.
Aside from the retention of regular divi
dends by the metal producers and a slight
easing of call money, there was little In
the day's news to stlmualto public or out
side interest.
The investment market was further un
settiid Tiy a continuance of the heavy
selling of Liberty bonds, the tax exempt

cent from the year's best, while the fourth
