Nevertheless, prices closed unsettled, c off to lHc net higher, with January $1.31 to $1.81, and May $1.30. Oats finished Vto down to a like advance. In provisions, theTe were gains of 10c to 55c. Dampness and mild temperature pre vailing over much of the corn belt in spired many recent sellers with a wish to get away from risks that would have to be met If the crop movement should be seriously delayed or curtailed. Covering that ensued on the part of shorts brought about a material advance In values, for of ferings were Bcarce until bidders had com peted with a good deal of spirit. After the bulge, however, realizing by holders set in and attention centered on the fact that arrivals here were on a more liberal scale than had appeared likely. Relative weak ness followed and at the last nearly all gains had been wiped out. Continued demand from the seaboard together with good domestic Inquiry gave steadiness to oats. Selling pressure was mainly on distant futures. Food administration measures to stabil ize hog quotations tended to strengthen provisions. Besides shipment of meat and lard remained far In excess of the totals a year ago. Chicago closing price, furnished The Bee by Logan & Bryan stock and grain brokers, 315 South Sixteenth street, Oma- New York, Dec. 10. Predicated largely on the sanguine view of the chairman or tne united States Steel corporation respecting future Industrial conditions, stocks today opened with a firm under tone, gathering greater trength and breadth as the session progressed. United States Steel and Standard rails were almost the only exception until the final hour, when heavy buying of steel and transcontinental Infused a defree of ouoyancy to the general list. Outstanding features, however, embraced the better known equipment, including tormer war Issues, motor and shippings, together with numerous specialties, mainly of the peace variety, at gross gain of 2 to 8 points. The backwardness of United States Steel was attributed in a measure to the pub lication of November tonnage following showing a decrease of about 230,000 tons In unfilled orders. Oils were unsettled at time because of the reported rupture of relations between American concessionaires and the Mexi can government, but Mexican Petroleum regained its loss, kindred share record ing variable gains. Chief among the strong Issues were United Fruit, Atlantic Gulf, American Car, Pressed Steel Car, Railway Steel Spring, Crucible and Bethlehem Steels, General, Chandler and Stutz Motors, Texas Com pany, Beet Sugar, Wilson Packing and Continental Can. United States Steel closed at a gain of 1 points, retaining all Its lead, and rails and metals finished at maximums, repre senting advances of 1 to 2 points. Domestic and foreign bonds were teadv. excepting Liberty Issues, the second 4s falling to the year's low level of 92,80 and the fourth 4s making a new mini mum of 96.62.

FORMER UMPIRE MADE NATIONAL LEAGUES HEAD Secretary-Treasurer Heydler Elected President for Three Year Term; Three Of fices Combined. New York, Dec. 10. John A. Hey dler was unanimously elected presi dent, secretary and treasurer of the National league at its annual meet ing here tonight for a term of three years. The three offices are com bined for the first time since 1907. Mr. Heydler had been acting presi. dent since the resignation of John K. Tener last summer. He had acted as president once previously, after the death of President Pulliam in 1909 until his successor, Thomas J. Lynch, was elected. He is thor oughly conversant with every detail of the national game, having been connected with the National league office for the past 15 years. Mr. Heydler's first professonal experience in base ball was as a National league umpire' in 1898 when double umpire system was established. Prior to that he was a writer on Sporting Life, and the Washington Star, and subsequently he was sporting editor of the Wash ington Post. In 1902, at the request of President Pulliam, he compiled the National league averages for that season and he became the president's private secretary in 1903 In 1907, when the office of president-secretary-treasurer of the Na tional league was split, Mr. Hey dler was appointed secretary, a post tion he has filled ever since. Prior to the election of President Heydler, two other names were in formally discussed but neither was put in nomination. These were John C. Toole, a lawyer of this city, who for years has been the legal adviser of some of the league mem bers, and David Brown, a news paper man of Louisville, Ky. The rules were changed so that in the future the board of directors will consist of four members and the president ex-officio, who will have a vote in case of a tie. Messers Herrmann, Cincinnati; Ebbets, Brooklyn; Baker, Philadelphia, and Hempstead, New York, were elected directors for the ensuing year.
